Stunning at Every Step: Sheng Chong Ghost Princess

Chapter 309

He couldn't answer, didn't want to tell her and didn't want to lie.

Zhao Mingyue suddenly grabbed his skirt and asked angrily: "Did you lock Chu Ziyan in? Give him back to me, give him back!"

Suddenly, Fenglinyuan couldn't get angry, she naively thought that it was Chu Ziyan who was imprisoned in Xiezhi Prison?She wanted Chu Ziyan to be returned to her in the evening.

Hou Xizhou loosened his clenched teeth: "...No."

"Then why does he have his memory!"

Hou Xizhou was silent for a while: "It's just a memory, he was there when you passed by that day, so your memory is engraved on it."

Mingyue was startled.

In the few months before Chu Ziyan left, she had never dreamed of him. It was not until she was on the verge of death in Xiezhi Prison that she saw and heard him clearly, and even spoke to him.

"You mean...he was really by my side at that time?"

There was a sound in Hou Xi's throat: "Mmm."

It's by her side.

how could this be?

There is clearly something wrong!

She was so confused that day, she couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality.

Mingyue took another look at Hou Xiri, and loosened his skirt, saying that she couldn't ask any more questions, so she stood still for a while and called out Feichi to leave quickly.

There are some things she has to prove, otherwise she can no longer feel at ease.

Fenglinyuan looked at the departing carriage and said sarcastically: "What should I do? Your Majesty the Ghost King, how can you lie?!"

"……roll."

"Do you often come to Xiezhi Prison to express your condolences? Is it because you came in such a hurry because you were worried that she would discover Chu Ziyan's memory, or the memory of Hou Xizhou?"

"Don't force me to kill you!" Hou Xiri rebuked coldly.

Fenglinyuan laughed loudly: "You dare not!"

A black spiritual pressure suddenly threw him onto the rock wall.

Fenglinyuan was still smiling: "Cough, do it! This way Zhao Mingyue can completely give up on you, I want this kind of result, so please give me your majesty..."

The eve of the day had already disappeared into the night.

Fenglinyuan held her chest and leaned against the rock and smiled wryly, then suddenly let out a low and deep laugh towards the dark sky.

Lift up and look at this hand that is still unfamiliar even after looking at it for a thousand years, the hand that used to be powerful is now... useless!He wants to do many things but this body can't!He doesn't even have the ability to protect a woman, and even the power to win her is so weak.

One day later.

Fenghua Building in Jiuqu City.

Zhao Mingyue was about to go out.

Fenglinyuan followed.

Mingyue said: "There is no need to follow, I can go alone for this matter."

That night Zhao Mingyue didn't go back to Jiuqu City directly, but came back a long time after Fenglinyuan returned to Jiuqu City. At that time, she no longer had the frustration and anger she had before, and she was very calm.

However, the eyes are also calm and disturbing.

How can Fenglinyuan feel relieved when he has to go out alone today after experiencing that day?

"Where is master going?"

The snow was falling heavily, and Meng Lu and Kong Yinxue also stood under the eaves and looked at her.

She smiled: "I'm going to do something private, and I'll be back soon."

"Then master, just go to your business, I will accompany you on the road and take care of it, it won't hinder you." Feng Linyuan said.

"No need." Mingyue looked at him and whispered, "Fenglinyuan, I want to do this alone."

Fenglinyuan looked at her for a long time: "The master doesn't want me after all, does he?"

Mingyue lowered her eyelashes, then smiled, raised her hand and patted his shoulder: "I'll be back soon."

After speaking, he drove a speeding car and disappeared into the vast snow.

It was snowing heavily in the north and it was freezing cold, and there were few green plants around.Although there are decaying vegetation in winter in the south, evergreens can still be seen in lush forests.

Xiangsu, the famous silk town in the south of Chu State, is a water town known as a paradise on earth.

There are interlaced rivers and lakes, crisscross water networks, small bridges and flowing water...

The pastoral cottages are picturesque.

The wooden buildings in Xiangsu City are built along the water, and there are countless stone bridges connecting the water flow.The stream of pedestrians on the bridge, and the traffic of awning boats under the bridge all show the characteristics of Jiangnan Water Town.

Zhao Mingyue walked across the stone bridge and the stone road.

Ask passers-by: "Excuse me, where do you go to Master Su's house?"

The Su family, a large family in Xiangsu City, has the largest dyeing workshop and silk and satin factory in Xiangsu, and is also a scholarly family. Su Ran's father was the governor of Xiangsu, and his uncle is still a member of the court of Chu State.

As the eldest son of the Su family, Su Ran devoted himself to business. He ran the Su family's dyeing workshop and the Su family's silk and satin shop. Many years ago, he became the number one rich man in Xiangsu City.

"Go straight to Nanran Street and the biggest gateway is."

"Thank you." After Mingyue finished speaking, she was about to go.

The passerby stopped her: "Girl..."

Zhao Mingyue turned her head.

A passer-by asked: "Miss going to Su's house is... that's all, you can go."

The man clasped his fists and left.

Why didn't you continue talking halfway through?But Mingyue didn't ask too much, even if there was something strange, she would know it when she arrived at Su's house.

Nanran Street is named after many dyeing workshops gathered there. Walking on the street, you can see high-hanging silks and satins and some tie-dyed cotton cloths, and you can smell the smell of plant dyes in the cold wind all the way. It is fragrant, but not unpleasant, just the smell of new cloth.

The Su family's portal is indeed very large.

It was just that a few crows landed on the wall of the Su family mansion, which surprised Mingyue a little.After a while, I saw tall bamboo poles protruding from the yard to drive away the crows.

The lintel that should have been shining looked dim, and there were also black clouds hovering over the Su residence.

This kind of cloud cannot be seen by ordinary people, but onmyojis can see it, the obscurity that opposes the auspicious cloud.

Obscurity, crows, are all ominous calls, is this why the passer-by hesitated to speak just now?
Zhao Mingyue knocked on the door of Su's house, and the young nurse came to open the door. Seeing a pretty woman like Mingyue, she was friendly: "What's the matter, girl?"

"Please see Master Su."

"What is your business with my master?"

Mingyue thought about it for a while: "I passed by your mansion, and I saw a dark barrier covering the southeast, and a black bird stopped on the wall. I wonder if anyone in the family is sick?"

The boy looked at Zhao Mingyue again: "Young lady is an Onmyoji?"

"Yes."

"Please wait a moment."

The servant closed the door, opened it for her about five or six minutes later, and invited her in.

In the main hall, I saw a man in his forties. He was in good health. Even though there were wrinkles on his face, his eyebrows were still handsome, his eyes were wise, his figure was strong and straight, he was wearing a light blue robe with a collar. There is plush inlay with the sleeves and an emerald ring on the hand.

He is Su Ran.

Mingyue stepped forward to salute: "Junior Zhao Mingyue has met Master Su."

Su Ran looked at the girl in her early twenties, put down the clear blue and white porcelain cup in her hand, and gestured for a seat.

Mingyue sat down.

Tea is served.

It is the best Longjing tea in the south of the Yangtze River.

When the servant served good tea, Su Ran said: "I have invited quite a few onmyojis, just as there are many girls who come to the door automatically, and I also meet some practitioners who pretend to be real, first ask the girl how to charge for divination and hexagrams?"

Mingyue cupped her fists in return: "I don't charge."

No charge?Su Ran has seen all kinds of scammers, and some started to say that there is no charge, so she doesn't really believe her words: "Then you just kindly remind Su Mou to come?"

"No, I want to see your little son."

Su Ran frowned: "Didn't you say that there is darkness in the southeast of my house, and that someone in the family is in poor health?"

Mingyue was stunned for a moment: "Could it be... that your youngest son is sick?"

Su Ran said in a deep voice: "The child's residence is in the southeast courtyard."

Mingyue was slightly startled, and said in a deep voice, "May I meet that child?"

Su Ran looked at Mingyue for a long time, then got up: "Please follow me."

Su Ran had a third wife, the first wife gave birth to four daughters, the second wife gave birth to two daughters, and the third wife gave birth to two daughters. Su Ran was looking forward to having a son, and finally the second wife gave birth to a boy five years ago.

Name it, Su Yanzhi.

Su Ran was happy to have a son, but when the child was born, there were many crows gathered in the second wife's yard, which was extremely ominous. Even after they were driven away, crows would fly into the yard again the next day.

After Su Yanzhi was born, his body suffered from various illnesses, and he could still see dirty things.

What humans call dirty things are actually goblins or ghosts

Master Su, who had great expectations for his son, tried every means to ask someone to do something to improve Su Yanzhi's life, but no one has been able to crack his fate.

Moreover, some onmyojis said that Su Yanzhi was the fate of ghosts, and raising him at home would ruin the family and lead to the failure of the family.

Su Ran didn't believe it at first.

Later, as Su Yanzhi grew up, the Su family's business continued to decline. Although the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, the Su family still seemed to be rich and powerful, but it was indeed not as good as every year.

Su Ran then asked the Onmyoji how to resolve such a conflict.

Some onmyojis said to send their children to other people's homes to be raised.Some said they recognized their children as adoptive mothers.Even more viciously, the onmyoji said to kill the child.

Where would Su Ran be willing?

He is in his forties and six years old, and has eight daughters and one son under his knees. Not to mention that Xiao Jiu is an only child, this child is really smart and unparalleled. He can recognize four to five thousand characters at the age of three, and his memory is extraordinary. Now he is five years old. , A poem can be memorized after listening to it once.In addition to poor health, this child is a gifted child.

How could a father be willing to send such a child away or kill him?
Mingyue couldn't help being a little sad when she heard this, God always opened a window and closed another window for people, giving people a super high IQ but not a strong body, wasn't that the case for Chu Ziyan before?

This is the so-called jealousy of talents, right?

Pass through a white wall arch and enter the southeast courtyard. The Buddha belly bamboo and a clump of plantains in the courtyard are still green, and the floor of the courtyard is painted with nine grids, a game played by children.Next to it is a small wooden horse that can rock back and forth.

Su Yanzhi often played Jiugongge alone, but he kept talking to himself.

Sometimes, when there is no one on the little wooden horse but it shakes by itself, Su Yanzhi will say: "You can play for as long as you like, anyway, I don't like things for children to play with."

Su Ran said: "He often talks to himself like this, so the onmyoji said that he can see things that ordinary people can't see. I didn't believe it at first, but when I saw that the little wooden horse was shaking when there was no one there, I thought My heart is cold."

Zhao Mingyue smiled lightly, but didn't tell Su Ran that there was a child about five or six years old sitting on the little wooden horse, wearing brand new clothes, with a pale face and dark, empty eyes, looking at them and smiling.
