Chapter 99: Auntie, You Are Here
Jiang Yunxi told them everything that happened after they arrived at the Zhen Mansion.
Zhan Beiyuan frowned, "What kind of hatred or grudge do they have? They actually want to suffocate the old lady to death. Even if it wasn't someone from the third house who did it, there must be someone inside there who is helping them."
"I think so too." Jiang Yunxi smiled. She guessed that something must have happened, otherwise there would be no need to kill her great-grandmother who was so old.
"Go to bed early." Zhan Beiyuan knew that she had been busy since she arrived at the Zhen Mansion.
"What's going on over there?" Jiang Yunxi asked. On the way from the capital to Jiangzhou, she heard him say that Jiangzhou was preparing to build a canal.
However, during the construction of the dam, accidents occurred one after another, and many workers died.
A dozen days ago.
The well-built dam suddenly collapsed, killing several people.
Seeing that the situation was out of control, Jiangzhou reported it to the court and asked for help.
"I went to the scene today and there was no problem with the materials and workmanship, but it collapsed inexplicably." Zhan Beiyuan said solemnly.
The place has been cleaned up, and no one is allowed to work there for the time being, for fear of further accidents.
"Master, have you taken a look? Could it be a feng shui problem?" Jiang Yunxi touched his chin.
"When we were about to start building the canal, Lord Zhang asked the master to take a look. The master also came to offer sacrifices on the day of construction." Zhan Beiyuan asked today.
The canal construction this time is a major project, and the government dare not slack off.
I just didn't expect that even though I had done everything I should have done, accidents still happened frequently.
"I'll go over and take a look tomorrow." Jiang Yunxi planned to go there in person and then go to Zhen Mingyue's house later.
Zhan Beiyuan nodded. He believed in her ability more than other masters.
…
The next day.
After Jiang Yunxi woke up, she quickly washed up and went to call Mo Momianmian. After she had tidied the two children, Zhan Beiyuan came out of the room.
The maids immediately prepared breakfast for them.
On the table.
"Brother, second brother, Shixue, please help me look after Momo Mianmian today. Prince Han and I are going out to do some business." Jiang Yunxi said to them.
"Don't worry, we will take care of them." Jiang Jinghuai agreed. He would not let the two little guys out of his sight anyway.
Jiang Yunxi naturally believed him.
She also reminded Momo and Mianmian in the morning not to run around before she came back.
Had breakfast.
They went to the mourning hall, where many people were waiting. They were all the old lady's descendants. There were dozens of them from the three families combined, and everyone had come now.
It was too late yesterday, so many married women didn’t come.
"Yun Xi, King Han." Zhen Zhibang walked towards them quickly.
Zhen Chengzhou and Zhen Minglang also quickly went over to pay their respects.
When some young women saw Zhan Beiyuan, their eyes were filled with amazement. But when they looked at Jiang Yunxi, their faces were dim. They had a child.
They are twins, a boy and a girl.
"Granduncle, Prince Han and I are going out to do something. You guys continue. The old lady is watching here. You guys take care of it." Jiang Yunxi said.
She knew that her great-grandmother wanted to live very much, and it was not that she had no way to let her live a few more days, but that would go against the rules of heaven and earth, and she could not do it.
Zhen Zhibang nodded repeatedly, "We will do it well."
Jiang Yunxi and Zhan Beiyuan quickly left the Zhen Mansion to do business, and the Zhen Mansion prepared a carriage for them.
When we were almost at the city gate.
They met the young woman holding the umbrella.
Zhan Beiyuan noticed her at a glance and looked at her sharply. Although he could no longer see ghosts, he could still feel that the woman was abnormal.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Yunxi asked with a smile.
"Is there something wrong with the woman holding the umbrella?" Zhan Beiyuan was still looking at the other party.
"Um."
"She's not human, is she?"
Jiang Yunxi's mouth twitched slightly. He didn't expect him to guess like this. The seven days that he was allowed to see the soul had passed long ago, and he couldn't see it now.
"Indeed, she is not human."
Zhan Beiyuan: "..."
If you are not a human, how can you walk in broad daylight?
Jiang Yunxi told him about the encounter with the woman holding an umbrella, and how she went on the boat to listen to the opera and saved Hu Xinghua. Wuming was there to handle the rest of the matter.
And she went to the Thirteen Temples and found her grandmother's soul in the lotus pond.
"Why does a Taoist temple need to suppress so many souls?" Zhan Beiyuan frowned, his handsome face sharp and cold.
"I'm not sure. I can't take care of them for now because I want to bring back my great-grandmother's soul. I'll go check on them in a few days."
Jiang Yunxi won't ignore it.
It is abnormal to have so many souls imprisoned in a Taoist temple.
"I'll go with you." Zhan Beiyuan also wanted to go and take a look.
"Do you know about the fire in Jiangzhou decades ago?"
"Yes, that fire almost destroyed Jiangzhou. What you see now is mostly rebuilt later, and it cost a lot of money from the national treasury."
Zhan Beiyuan said seriously.
Although Jiangzhou is about to be destroyed, the imperial court will not give up this place.
The location here is good, and most importantly, there is water.
"Why did the fire start?" Jiang Yunxi was quite curious about this. A fire almost destroyed such a big city. The cost of this fire was too high.
"Until now, no one knows how the fire started. Everything that should have burned has been burned. Even if there are some unburned parts left, there is no clue." Zhan Beiyuan said coldly.
The fire became a mystery.
Jiang Yunxi: “…”
The carriage quickly left the city and headed towards the suburbs.
Qi Yan went with them yesterday and had memorized the route. Not long after, the carriage entered the mountains and finally stopped in an open grassland.
Jiang Yunxi got off the carriage and saw a large project not far ahead. One third of the dam had been built, and the ground was in a mess with various materials piled up.
As she walked forward, she felt a strong yin energy. She looked around but did not see any graves.
"Uncle, you are here."
Not far away, Zhan Luochen waved and greeted Zhan Beiyuan when he saw him. After seeing Jiang Yunxi, he shouted at the top of his voice, "Auntie Huang, you're here."
Next to him stood a young woman in green clothes, holding a handkerchief in her hand. She looked like a pampered lady from a wealthy family. "Is Prince Han married? Is that woman the Princess Han?"
Zhan Luochen looked at her with a smile, "Her name is Jiang Yunxi. Although she didn't marry my uncle, she gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl."
In the morning, he didn't want the other party to come, but the other party insisted on coming, just to take advantage of his uncle.
Then he would pierce her heart.
Zhang Chuqin's eyes widened. They didn't get married, but they had two children. What was going on?
Zhan Beiyuan naturally heard the call of "Imperial Aunt". He looked at the woman beside him. There was no expression on her face, as if the call of "Imperial Aunt" had no effect on her.
Did she accept it or not?
After Jiang Yunxi walked over, she looked at Zhan Luochen with a smile, "Sixth Prince, please move away."
Zhan Luochen's eyes widened, his face bewildered. "Why did you tell me to stay away?"
"Because you are stepping on someone else's grave." Jiang Yunxi reminded him.
