Chapter 197 Jiang Yunzheng: Regardless of flood or not, Xie Yuan and his daughter can no longer return to Xiejia Island
Qi Yunshen looked at her, unable to say a word.
"Yan Hui, take good care of yourself and teach Zhenzhen well."
Jiang Yunzheng finished speaking quickly and was about to turn around when Qi Yunshen pulled her back into his arms.
He stroked Jiang Yunzheng's neck, his voice hoarse: "Impossible, even if it means everything, God is so kind as to let you come back. No matter what, I will never let you leave again."
"Jingyang, don't be so cruel to me."
Jiang Yunzheng lowered her eyes.
Qi Yunshen: "What did Xie Qing threaten you with?"
The wind and sand on the road gradually blurred Jiang Yunzheng's eyes. She bit her lips and couldn't say a word.
At this moment, there was another sound of horse hooves, and even the ground was shaking.
Xie Qing arrived with nearly twenty guards, and the blind Taoist priest also came.
Yu Zheng was the first to speak: "Mr. Xie, aren't you in the capital? Why are you here?"
Chen Zhu glared at Yu Zheng. "Your Majesty has granted your permission to return home to mourn. Please don't speak nonsense, Master Yu."
Previously, when Yu Zheng and Xie Qing went to Beijing to take the imperial examination, they stayed in the same inn. Xie Qing and his servant did not like Yu Zheng's talkative nature.
I don’t know how such a person could get the third place in the imperial examination!
Xie Qing raised his hand and glanced at Qi Yunshen who was standing opposite him. He didn't rush forward. Instead, he stared at Jiang Yunzheng: "Jiang Yunzheng, don't forget what you promised me."
Jiang Yunzheng looked back: "Of course not."
Xie Xuan, who had been hiding in the carriage, finally waited for Xie Qing.
Xie Xuan climbed out of the carriage and burst into tears towards Xie Qing:
"Brother, come and save me!"
"I missed you so much. What took you so long? I've been waiting for you for so long."
Xie Qing glanced at Xie Xuan, his eyes revealing undisguised disdain.
"Stand up and speak."
Xie Xuan slapped his legs and pointed at Jiang Yunzheng: "She was the one who poisoned me. Now I can't even stand up!"
Xie Qing let her cry and ignored her.
The blind Taoist priest got off the carriage and walked forward, but was stopped by Qi Yunshen's men.
Jiang Yunzheng: "Let him come over."
Jiang Yunzheng recognized that this was the person who had stopped her on the street and given her the talisman.
She asked Qi Yunshen to let her go.
The blind Taoist priest clearly couldn't see, but his cloudy eyes kept moving back and forth on Jiang Yunzheng's face, and then he took her pulse, crying and laughing, which was extremely sarcastic.
"Your life span is short, and death is imminent."
Jiang Yunzheng's face trembled. She stared at the blind Taoist priest, all the words stuck in her throat, unable to utter a single word.
Qi Yunshen's face was gloomy and stormy, and his voice was hoarse: "Speak clearly."
Taoist Luo had a sarcastic smile on his face, but his eyes were filled with compassion and sympathy as he looked at Jiang Yunzheng.
Looking at this face, Taoist Luo seemed to have returned to the time when he was about to leave the island.
The tearful words rang in his ears.
— Kindness does not make for a good army. Xie Ci has talent, but she's too soft-hearted to handle the situation. Why would her mother give her the position? Just because of a century-old clan rule?
—I refuse to accept it! Junior Brother, I refuse to accept it! Since Mother has been so cruel to me, don't blame me for not considering our brotherly love.
——Mother, if Xie Yuan comes to power, the Xie family line will be cut off at Xie Yuan’s hands.
…
Taoist Luo murmured, "So it's true, so it's true. No wonder the head of the family didn't stop Yu Tongyan from taking you away from Xie Family Island..."
Xie Qing frowned: "If you have anything to say, let's talk about it in private."
Taoist Luo didn't look at Xie Qing. He said to Jiang Yunzheng, "There's no hope."
Not far away, Xu Suyuan looked in the direction of Jiang Yunzheng with an incredulous look.
How could it be possible...
Jiang Yunzheng's cold palm was wrapped by a big hand.
Xie Qing frowned, and Chen Zhu asked, "Sir, what should we do next?"
They didn't expect that Qi Yunshen's men would come so quickly.
Xie Qing looked forward: "Jiang Yunzheng, what I want is to return the property to its original owner."
Jiang Yunzheng: "Since I promised you, I will not break my promise."
Qi Yunshen kept frowning.
Jiang Yunzheng held his hand and tried to keep her voice steady: "Yan Hui, everything is fine now, isn't it?"
Qi Yunshen held her hand tighter and tighter.
Xie Qing had no intention of confronting Qi Yunshen head-on, and it would not be a good idea to continue wasting time here.
"Let's stay in Hangzhou first."
Qi Yunshen had a house in Hangzhou, which was given to him by Emperor Jingming when he was a young man. The house was very large and could easily accommodate all these people.
Qi Yunshen and Jiang Yunzheng lived in the main courtyard of the house, and the rest of the people were scattered in the courtyards.
Jiang Yunzheng took the antidote from Wu Yu and gave it to Xie Qing.
Xie Xuan was sent to a courtyard in the house and guarded by Xie family guards.
Yu Zheng did not live here, but slipped away and went to the Yu family's mansion in Hangzhou.
Qi Yunshen is going to find Taoist Luo, and Jiang Yunzheng wants to follow him.
The smile on Jiang Yunzheng's face was uglier than crying: "Even if I die, I want to know the cause of death."
Before they could get there, Xie Qing arrived with Taoist Luo.
On the way here, Taoist Luo told Xie Qing everything he knew.
Few people on the island know that Xie Ci has a twin sister, Xie Jiang, and their biological mother is Xie Ling, the previous generation in power of the Xie family.
Sisters are born in different orders, but all the glory in this life is divided by heaven and earth.
The Xie family is particularly strict in educating the younger generations of the clan, especially the heir of the Xie family. When Xie Ci was being educated by the great scholar and Xie Ling on the island, Xie Jiang, as a younger generation of the clan branch, worshipped the high priest on the island as his teacher and learned numerology so that he could assist Xie Ci in the future.
Xie Jiang's existence depends on Xie Ci.
The older he got, the more doubts, resentment and resentment grew in Xie Jiang's heart.
Xie Ci has talent but is kind and gentle by nature, making her totally unsuitable for managing Xiejia Island. Just because Xie Ci holds the title of "leader", Xie Ling gives her the right of succession.
Xie Jiang was dissatisfied and wanted to seize power.
In the second year after Xie Ci took over the Xie family from Xie Ling, Xie Ci met Yu Tongyan and later gave birth to Xie Yuan. Over the years, Xie Jiang has never given up the desire to seize power.
The truth cannot be hidden, and the fact that Xie Jiang had a lot of assassins was accidentally exposed.
Xie Ling felt that Xie Jiang was a scourge, and that Xie Family Island was more important than anything else. Since the next heir had already been chosen, Xie Jiang was useless. Xie Ling expelled Xie Jiang from the Xie Family and even had the high priest erase Xie Jiang's memories.
But no one expected that Xie Jiang had a backup plan. She swore a blood curse on her body: the Xie family must be destroyed at the hands of Xie Yuan.
After this, Xie Jiang fled and left Xiejia Island.
Xie Jiang is Taoist Luo's senior sister, and her departure is inseparable from Taoist Luo's help.
After Xie Jiang's escape was discovered, the high priest risked his life to save his only disciple, and Taoist Luo destroyed his own eyes and left Xiejia Island.
Over the years, Taoist Luo has never stopped looking for Xie Jiang.
Now, the doubts that had been lingering in Jiang Yunzheng's mind finally showed signs of being cleared up.
Xie Jiang...
It turns out that the woman in the cave was her.
Taoist Luo noticed that Jiang Yunzheng's eyes were unusual, so he asked hurriedly, "What do you know?"
Jiang Yunzheng: "I saw a female corpse in a cave in Zhuluo Snow Mountain. It must be the person you are talking about."
Taoist Luo stood up in shock: "Really?"
Jiang Yunzheng nodded.
Taoist Luo couldn't help but cry with joy.
After a pause, Jiang Yunzheng asked again, "According to what you said, the heir of the Xie family was brought up strictly since childhood. How could my father take me away from Xie Family Island so easily?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Qing's face suddenly turned pale.
In Xie Qing's mind, his mother's face gradually overlapped with Jiang Yunzheng's...
If Xie Yuan wants to leave Xiejia Island, he must get his grandmother's consent.
Jiang Yunzheng smiled: "Regardless of whether there was a flood or not, in the end, my father and I will never be able to return to Xiejia Island."
