Chapter 22
Destroy the temple, rescue people, bring Qi home, transfer to Lin'an Mansion as an official...

As soon as he heard a few key words, some events immediately appeared in Qin Yuehuai's mind——

In the second year of Yongxing's reign, the Jin army invaded the south. At that time, his uncle abandoned the capital at Yingtianfu and headed southeast. On the surface, he was "on patrol", but in fact he was escaping.

Uncle Deyuan, who was then the Minister of Rites, went south with his uncle, and he finally reunited with Uncle Deyuan in Yangzhou where he was living in hiding.

It was also that year that he learned from Uncle Deyuan that his mother, who had been kidnapped in Dajin, had died in Dajin.

He hated the Jin people and wished to eat their flesh and drink their blood, but Uncle Deyuan sighed at him and said that he had proposed that he hoped to repair Tokyo, Guanshan, Xiangdeng and other places. After all, the Central Plains was the foundation of the world, but regardless of Huang , Wang, and his uncle. What the entire Zhou Dynasty court considered was not how to strengthen armaments and regain lost territory, but to continue to send people to "pray" for peace to the Jin people.

Uncle Deyuan asked him to wait for the opportunity.

He is only nine years old. What else can he do besides waiting for him to grow up and become capable?
Uncle Deyuan's situation of being a low-key and low-key man did not change until the third year of Yongxing.

In the third year of Yongxing, two generals of the Forbidden Army launched a mutiny in Lin'an and deposed his uncle. It was Uncle Deyuan who organized Han Shizhong and other generals to defeat the rebels and restored his uncle. As a result, Uncle Deyuan was promoted to the Privy Council. thing.

In the fourth year of Yongxing's reign, Uncle Deyuan was appointed as the envoy of Xuanfu in Sichuan and Shaanxi, and he followed him to take up the post.He was 11 years old and asked himself to train in the army. Uncle Deyuan agreed but did not trust him and handed him over to a calm general.

This general's name is Liu Qi.

In the seventh year of Yongxing, the Battle of Fuping occurred between the Zhou Dynasty and the Jin Army.Because Zhou Dynasty rushed to fight, the five armies and horses fought independently, and there was also a strategic envoy Jiang Ze who abandoned the army and fled, causing them to be defeated across the board.

According to Uncle Deyuan's order, he followed General Liu to rescue Huanzhou where Jiang Ze's subordinates had become rebels. However, just after arriving in Huanzhou, the Jin army attacked Weizhou, their garrison base, and General Liu had to lead his elite troops back. Army, go to rescue Weizhou.

That's when they were in a dilemma.Fenzhou, which was between Weizhou and Huanzhou, was also attacked by people. The entire elite team was destroyed except for him and General Liu.

He and General Liu hid in a ruined temple. They were both dying. When they thought their lives were over, they met a group of people taking shelter from the rain.

The corner of his eye was injured and his vision was blurry, but he remembered that the voice that spoke after touching his forehead was a woman's voice——

"His forehead is also very hot! Hurry and find a doctor for treatment!"

He never saw the woman's face again, but he remembered clearly that the place where he and General Liu spent three days recovering from their injuries was Qi Mansion in Chengzhou.

Shen Yanhan once said that his "cousin" was from Chengzhou.

And her mother's surname is also Qi.

More than five years have passed since this happened, and General Liu happened to be transferred to Lin'an Mansion four years ago, and excitedly told him that he had found the benefactor who had saved his life in Lin'an!

Shen Yanhan told him that three years ago, her mother died due to dystocia and she gave birth to a baby brother.

Also starting from three years ago, General Liu seemed to come to the north side of Nanping Mountain every year to visit his benefactor's grave. ——Qin Yuehuai couldn't hide his surprise when these pieces of news came together.

Thinking happened only for a moment, and Shen Yanhan was completely unaware of the change in Qin Yuehuai's eyes.

As soon as Aunt Meng finished speaking, she raised her voice and asked: "You said you heard it clearly, but I would like to ask, where did you know it clearly? Who told you this?"

Hearing her words, Aunt Meng's eyes were obviously panicked, and then she shouted loudly: "You don't care where I heard it from, but your mother did such a dirty thing anyway! Shameless! You!" , just like your mother—ah!”

Before she finished speaking, the cup in Qin Yuehuai's hand hit her forehead.

Immediately, Yang Dong's sword reached her neck again.

Even if Shen Yanhan asked again, what came out of Aunt Meng's mouth would be nothing more than some local curse words.

Qin Yuehuai grabbed Shen Yanhan's wrist, pushed her back onto the stool again, looked at her soothingly, and said calmly and calmly: "Why don't we capture Meng Er and torture him severely."

When she heard that he was going to touch her heart, Aunt Meng was shocked: "What are you going to do? You are not from the government, why should you arrest people! Why should you torture them!"

Qin Yuehuai's words were still smooth: "You should be very experienced in doing things secretly. Otherwise, how could you tell lies about a lady who has helped you in every possible way for no reason? Woolen cloth?"

Aunt Meng was pricked in her thoughts, but she still did not apologize, but snorted with disdain in her nose.

But she didn't dare to hum it. She just started to pronounce it. Meng Er, who was thinking of her, was obviously no match for the man in black who was pointing a murder weapon at her. She stopped in time and changed her look to look disdainful. He looked at Shen Yanhan.

Mu Jin said angrily on the side: "If I had known that the food my wife gave me at the beginning was fed to a mouth like yours, it would be better to give it to a dog. It would still wag its tail at us."

Aunt Meng retorted: "That little charity is for beggars! I don't want to mention it. All the gifts given to the Zhou family are silk and satin. When it comes to me, it's just scraps and rough blue cloth. Who should think it's such a rarity!" "

Hearing this, Shen Yanhan's eyes suddenly changed.

She remembered that the weather was bad when she lived in Qingshui Village. Aunt Meng could not collect many herbs. The Meng family was too poor to open the pot. Not to mention that little girl Meng was so hungry that her face was sallow and her skin was thin. She was still wearing a single garment with holes in it in the middle of winter.

She was obviously so poor, how could she not appreciate the whole piece of cloth given by her mother?
It was clear that when the cloth and ready-made clothes were sent to her house, the people in front of her were so grateful that they took the little girl from her family and kowtowed to her mother to thank her. Why did she have such a scornful attitude now?
Shen Yanhan was very puzzled by this.

But before he could get the answer from Aunt Meng, Aunt Meng's neighbor Aunt Li San came to ask in the yard: "Ms. Shen, is Aunt Meng here with you? Her relatives have come to call her home. Na."

They were all neighbors, so it was natural for Shen Yanhan to hold people captive. She suppressed her emotions and walked to the door, greeted Aunt Li San in a friendly manner, and then turned back to signal Yang Dong to let Aunt Meng go.
