Chapter 046 Jin丨Exclusively published by Jiang Wenxue
Compared to King Taiping and Zhui Ming, Pei Rui was very calm. It was unknown whether he had not yet reacted or whether his personality was so stable. After Zhui Ming calmed down, he asked calmly, "Am I very similar to her?"
Zhui Ming looked at the sharp boy in front of him with a trance.
His thoughts traveled through time and returned to the day when he first met Xiao Tou.
He was only 11 years old at that time. Because of the internal injuries brought from his mother's womb, his health had always been poor. Also, because of the death of his parents, he showed great changes at a young age.
Xiao Tou was a few years older than him. She was drawing water from the well at the entrance of the village. Her long black hair was slightly messy, but it revealed a lot of tenderness. There were two dimples on her face. When she smiled, she was so bright and sweet that she almost drowned Zhui Ming.
Zhui Ming was moved the first time he saw her.
Xiao Tou was soft and fragile.
She was like a little white flower swaying in the wind, tender and pure.
She was the maid of the second young master of the Lei family in the town. In order to get close to her, Zhui Ming went to the Lei family to do hard labor.
He and Xiao Tou only spoke once. The young man was so nervous that he was at a loss when talking to his sweetheart for the first time. He couldn't even say a complete sentence.
Later, Xiao Tou married the second young master of the Lei family, and Zhui Ming left in disappointment.
Seven years later, he returned to Weiluo Town. Xiao Tou's grave was full of white flowers.
Xiao Tou is gentle and weak. She has no ability to fight against fate, which is completely different from the sharp black-clothed boy in front of him.
But when he saw this boy for the first time, the appearance of Xiao Tou popped up in Zhui Ming's mind.
He couldn't help but compare Xiao Tou with this man, but found that except for the messy hair that day, the gentle eyes, and the sweet dimples, Xiao Tou's appearance became blurred, gradually overlapping with the boy, becoming clear again, and appearing in his mind.
After all, Xiao Tou has been dead for many years, and he has only really met Xiao Tou once, and more often he has been guarding in front of her grave, looking at the lonely little white flowers.
But why is it Pei Rui?
In the future, when he thinks of Xiao Tou, he will think of Pei Rui's face!
Pei Rui is indeed young. Even with his eyes covered, one can still tell that he is quite youthful. Ignoring the sense of oppression around him and the scorching sharp edge, Pei Rui's appearance is actually very handsome. If it were a little softer, he would indeed look a bit like Xiao Tou.
But is it so easy to ignore that sharp aura and the murderous intent?
Forgetting is inevitable, but Zhui Ming did not expect that he would forget Xiao Tou in this way... After working with Pei Rui in the future, how much of the weak Xiao Tou would remain in his heart?
Pei Rui waited for a long time, but never received a reply from Zhui Ming.
He said calmly: "My previous name was Xiao Mian, I wonder if you have heard of it."
Zhui Ming came back to his senses from his grief and looked at him suddenly: "You..."
Pei Rui: "I was probably born blind. I have never seen the appearance of my family members, and I don't remember their names. I only remember that I had parents, a brother and a sister."
Zhuge Zhengwo was originally jealous of Pei Rui, thinking that he was quite arrogant and should be a difficult person to get along with.
Hearing these words, he couldn't help but be moved, and the look he gave Pei Rui was much kinder.
King Taiping felt even more distressed for him. If the occasion was not wrong, he would definitely step forward and comfort the child.
System: [Don't you have no memory of Xiao Mian?
Xue Chen: [No, aren't all the things I mentioned provided in the text introduction? I will be working in the Six Gates in the future. According to Xiao Mian's personality, it will be difficult to get familiar with them in a short time. It is better to sell it badly first. Even if Xiao Mian and Xiao Tou have no relationship, at least I can get close to Zhui Ming. Zhui
Ming's expression changed slightly: "Xiao Tou does have two younger brothers."
At the age of eleven, he just wanted to watch Xiao Tou from a distance and try to make himself worthy of her.
Later, Xiao Tou married Lei Er Shaoye as a concubine. Zhui Ming knew that compared to himself, Lei Er Shaoye, a powerful and influential son, was a better choice for Xiao Tou.
Heartbroken, Zhui Ming left Weiluo Town. Seven years later, when he came back, Second Master Lei had married seven concubines. Xiao Tou could not bear the abuse and committed suicide.
Her grave was very small, and no one went to pay respects except Zhui Ming.
Zhui Ming avenged her and learned about Xiao Tou's life from other servants of the Lei family.
She was the eldest daughter in the family and had two younger brothers.
The younger brother suddenly went missing when he was five years old and never came back. The older brother also fell seriously ill a few years later. In order to treat his brother, Xiao Tou was sold to the Lei family as a slave. But her brother still could not be saved and died of illness not long after.
Xiao Tou's parents could not bear such a blow and were depressed. They also passed away a few years later. From then on, Xiao Tou became an orphan with no one to rely on, floating like a duckweed. Even if she died, no one would care.
Zhui Ming could not accept that Xiao Tou lived such a humble life.
Now that he knew that Xiao Tou's brother was very likely still alive, Zhui Ming could not help but feel lucky. Fortunately, he still remembered Xiao Tou, otherwise the lost child would never find his home again.
Pei Rui lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "Can you take me to see her?"
Zhui Ming: "She... I will take you back if there is a chance in the future. You really should see her, after all, you may be her only relative in this world."
Pei Rui nodded.
King Taiping felt that the tone of Zhui Ming's words was not right. Pei Rui was a sincere person and rarely cautious. As a foster father, he naturally had to check for the child.
Prince Taiping: "Rui'er's background is not confirmed yet. It's too early to talk about him as the only relative."
Zhui Ming: "Your Highness is right."
Zhuge Zhengwo knew what Zhui Ming had been through. Seeing that he was distracted, I changed the subject and did not mention Pei Rui's identity.
Pei Rui was asked a few simple questions and went through the motions. It was confirmed in the conversation between Prince Taiping and Zhuge Zhengwo that he would go to the Shenbu Division to work after the Mid-Autumn Festival.
He had poor eyesight and could not handle paperwork. He could only spend more effort to do physical work first, following the Four Famous Detectives and helping them.
Zhuge Zhengwo was a man who was good at dancing with long sleeves. Sometimes he was a bit eloquent and flattering, and he was no worse than Cai Jing and his ilk. He was very versatile and rarely offended people.
But he also sticks to his bottom line, forms his own school, and puts all his thoughts on the things that are his responsibilities.
The King of Taiping thought that Zhuge Zhengwo might have ulterior motives in this meeting, because he was dissatisfied with him for placing people in the Shenbu Division, and he wanted to make things difficult for Pei Rui in the name of training him.
Unexpectedly, things went so smoothly. Because of his background, Pei Rui successfully made friends with Zhuge Zhengwo and others, and it seemed that he was treated sincerely by Zhuge Shenhou and the three heads of the police.
The King of Taiping was very pleased and did not neglect his concern for Pei Rui.
After leaving the Shenhou Mansion, he reminded Pei Rui: "Zhui Ming's sadness when he mentioned Xiao Tou didn't seem fake."
Pei Rui nodded: "I know."
Seeing his calm appearance, the King of Taiping knew that he must have suffered a lot in order to find his relatives, and had already made the worst plan, so when he learned the news of his relatives, he could face it calmly. He
felt a little sorry for this child: "Rui'er, no matter what the result is, whether you have found your relatives or not, the Prince of Taiping's Mansion will always be your home."
Pei Rui nodded gently: "Yes...Father."
The King of Taiping was flattered: "Hey, hey, okay, okay."
When they arrived at the palace, Gong Jiu had already woken up.
Pei Rui followed the King of Taiping in and felt a sharp gaze falling on him. That look was so powerful that it was difficult to ignore it even if he wanted to.
He tilted his head, put his hand on the hilt, and stood in front of King Taiping as a guardian.
King Taiping was confused, looked around, and saw Gong Jiu and didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Rui'er, it's okay, your second brother is over there."
Pei Rui: "He is very dangerous."
King Taiping: "His martial arts are very high, but you are brothers after all. Lian'er has a cold personality, but he has no bad intentions. At most, he will tease you and won't do anything to you."
It's not that King Taiping favors his own son, but mainly because Pei Rui's face as if facing a powerful enemy looks too real.
Pei Rui has seen blood in the army, which aroused his ferocity, and he can't see with his eyes, so it's easy to cause accidental injuries. King Taiping is very worried that Gong Jiu will be killed by him accidentally.
He gave Gong Jiu a warning look, reminding him not to push Pei Rui too much.
Pei Rui was a serious and sharp person, and he would be able to detect any malicious intentions. He always took the initiative and would never give his enemies a chance to attack.
Why did you provoke him?
Gong Jiu turned around and returned to his residence with a gloomy expression.
He rarely took out his old sword and practiced in the backyard.
Xue Chen looked through the window and saw the shadow outside: [It seems that he has fallen in love with Xiao Co.]
System: [Shaman’s description is really good. There is indeed an evil ghost from the eighteenth level of hell in your brother’s soul.]
Xue Chen: [My brother is just practicing sword. How can you say that about my brother! You are so vicious! 】
System: [……]
-
Xue Chen took advantage of the new vest not being put into use yet, and let him sleep for a day and a night while he was unconscious, and opened his eyes the next morning.
Not sure if it was because his soul couldn't bear it, or because he slept too much, Xue Chen felt that the headache here seemed to be more serious.
He lay weakly on the bed, receiving the information from the vest.
The owner of this body is called Liu Yixuan. His father is a powerful hunter, and his mother has a few years of education. She is a woman who looks gentle but is actually very opinionated. Liu Yixuan was named by her, and she was also taught by her.
They are a happy family, but they live in Niujia Village in Zhejiang. In the same village, there is an uncle named Yang Tiexin and an aunt named Bao Xiruo.
Wanyan Honglie was assassinated and fled to Niujia Village, where he was saved by Bao Xiruo.
He was delighted by the beauty and put all his heart on Bao Xiruo. He designed to let the Jin people burn the village, kill the people in the village, and kidnap Bao Xiruo.
Liu Yixuan's parents died in this disaster. The young boy was hidden by his mother who sensed the danger in advance. He escaped the disaster, but his throat was hoarse by the strong smoke.
After the Jin people left, he buried his parents, wandered and begged all the way, and came to the capital to find his uncle who worked in the palace.
His uncle Xu Qingrong was the official of Neidongmensi, responsible for checking the entry and exit of forbidden people in the palace, accepting the sealed secret documents, etc. He was a great man in the palace.
After learning about the death of his sister and brother-in-law, the uncle was sad and angry, but the culprit who committed such a heinous crime was the Sixth Prince of the Jin Kingdom. Even though he had a certain amount of power in the palace, he still couldn't do anything about him.
Xu Qingrong arranged a place for his nephew to live outside the palace, but Liu Yixuan couldn't let go of the hatred in his heart and begged his uncle to help him.
But his voice was hoarse, and he couldn't serve as an official in the court through normal channels.
After discussing with him, his uncle adopted him as his adopted son, and then sent him to the Speed Room of the Privy Council to receive secret training, waiting for the opportunity for revenge.
More than ten years passed, and Liu Yixuan was already eighteen years old. A secret order came from the Central Secretariat, preparing to send a group of spies to infiltrate the Jin Kingdom. Liu Yixuan seized this opportunity and prepared to set off in a few days.
When Xue Chen selected the time node, the people of different identities in the first picture were all spies secretly trained by the Speed Room.
Xue Chen: [It seems that Liu Yixuan should have been burned to death in Niujia Village. You put the broken vest on his identity and used the world consciousness to make modifications. It is natural for him to become dumb.]
System: [Yes.]
Xue Chen: [This time, what is modified is other people’s memory of the vest in the past ten years? 】
System: 【It’s not difficult actually. The training content of the spies in the speed room is almost the same every day, and they rarely come into contact with people outside, so it’s also convenient to modify other people’s perception of the vest.】
Xue Chen: 【It sounds really simple.】
The second time node given by the system is when the vest sets out. .
The third time node is when he goes to ambush in the Kingdom of Jin, but is discovered by the Jin people to be plotting something and is captured on the spot.
It seems that his analysis is correct. The previous time nodes do not necessarily mean danger, and the later time points may not be safe.
The panel of this body is blank, it has no skills, and its perception of the surroundings is not sensitive.
Xue Chen did not open his eyes immediately, but moved his fingers lightly, as if he was about to wake up.
A feminine voice sounded: "Xuan'er?"
Liu Yixuan slowly opened his eyes. A handsome man in a red official robe was sitting next to him, looking at him with concern.
System: [Liu Yixuan looks like him.]
Xue Chen: [Didn't you make them?]
[How many times have I told you that I didn't do anything behind the scenes!] The system pondered, [Could it be that the world consciousness also repaired the appearance of these people? Wait, who is this person?]
Xue Chen: [Isn't this obvious? Who else could it be except my former uncle and current godfather?]
System: [He is so young. 】
The man said: "You suddenly fainted and slept for such a long time. I was really worried."
Liu Yixuan: "Ah..."
The sound he made was thin, and it was difficult to tell whether it was male or female, but he was so hoarse that he couldn't speak a complete sentence.
"Xuan'er, don't be anxious. Drink some water first." The man took the cup of water and fed him half a cup.
Liu Yixuan noticed that the man's hands were well maintained, with very delicate skin, and only the ring finger had a string left after writing.
Xue Chen: [Tong'er, he seems to be a eunuch.]
System: [Well... it seems...]
Xue Chen: [Each vest has only one disabled part, right?]
System: [Yes!]
Xue Chen: [That's great, congratulations, you escaped safely. 】
System: [……]
After Liu Yixuan finished drinking the water, he tugged at Xu Qingrong's sleeve and stared at him anxiously, as if he wanted to get some answer from him.
System: [Set synchronization rate +2, current vest synchronization rate 2%, 2 skill points can be used. ]
Xue Chen was very satisfied: [Actually, being dumb is also good, there is no need to worry about revealing your identity, just act casually, and the other party will figure it out. ]
Xu Qingrong: "Xuan'er, but I want to ask, how long have you been unconscious?"
Liu Yixuan nodded.
Xu Qingrong: "You slept for a day and a night, and tomorrow you should leave the capital and go to the capital of the Jin Kingdom. Xuan'er, this is your last chance, and it's not too late to regret it now. If you go there, even I can't do anything."
Liu Yixuan shook his head firmly.
[Set synchronization rate +2, current vest synchronization rate 4%, 4 skill points available.] System, [What skills do you want to choose this time?]
[Save it for now, we'll talk about it later.] Xue Chen, [This vest has been secretly trained for so long, it really has no skills at all?]
System: [No.]
Xue Chen was a little disappointed, it seems that the system really didn't lie to him.
Pei Rui only had a knife at that time, and he didn't even unlock the knife skills. It's reasonable for the new vest to start from scratch.
