Chapter 259: Sanbao Hall
At the end of the Shen period, the entire Yizhou City was shrouded in drizzle and gloom. A thin mist filled the Yunyi Alley. A woman in a fiery red cloak was holding a yellowed oil-paper umbrella.
She walked to a villa and knocked on the door knocker.
A moment later, the servant opened the door and stuck his head out. When he saw the woman's face clearly, he frowned and asked, "Excuse me, who are you looking for?"
"I'm looking for Xie Rongying." said the woman.
The servant's eyes flashed with surprise. Seeing that the woman in front of him looked very familiar to his eldest daughter, he immediately invited her in and said, "Young lady, please wait in the side hall in front. I will go and invite the eldest daughter."
Feng Qinghuan first looked around the courtyard, then put away his umbrella and walked towards the side hall.
The servant turned and walked towards the inner house.
At this time, Xie Rongying was looking at a letter that had just arrived from Bian Jing. It was a letter from Xie Ting.
As she had guessed, Zhao Yu had already arranged people in Yizhou.
As for where in Yizhou he was and how much he knew about Yizhou, Xie Rongying had no idea.
The content of the letter was very simple. In addition to informing the new emperor that he had taken control of the situation in Yizhou, it also targeted Shangguan Yan, who had been in Yizhou for a year.
The incident of the entire Yongyi Marquis family being beheaded was also mentioned. Xie Rongying calculated the time and it was a coincidence that it was today.
Finally, he told Xie Rongying to be careful and that Qin Junyi was also in this Yizhou.
After reading it, Xie Rongying handed the letter to Xie Changfeng. Xie Changfeng had just taken it and was about to speak when Cuizhi's voice was heard outside the house.
"The young lady and the second young master are discussing something inside. Do you have anything to say?"
The young man immediately said, "There is a girl looking for the eldest girl."
When Cuizhi heard that it was the girl, there was doubt in her eyes. In Yizhou, there should be no other woman who could come to see her girl except Shi Jiuyue. But when she thought that the Shi family and the Xie family had already torn their faces apart, why would Shi Jiuyue come to see her girl?
Just as Cuizhi was wondering, the door was opened.
"Miss." Cuizhi bowed when she saw Xie Rongying coming out.
Xie Rongying's eyes swept across Cuizhi's face, then looked at the servant: "You go first and tell him I'll be there soon."
"Yes, young lady." The servant said and turned to leave.
Puzzled, Cuizhi followed Xie Rongying into the house and asked, "Miss, what does Shi Jiyue want to see you about?"
"No one comes to see you for no reason." Xie Rongying also thought it was Shi Jiuyue. Since she was here, there was no reason not to see her. "I also want to see what she has to say to me."
She also learned from Huai'an about Xie Jing's visit to Linyuan and how he was taken away by Shi Jiuyue.
Shi Jiuyue wanted Xie Jing to die, but why did he come to her at this time?
Xie Rongying felt that this was not something Shi Jiuyue would do, but in Yizhou, who else could she find besides Shi Jiuyue?
"Eldest sister, I didn't expect that the government's people had already ambushed Yizhou." Xie Changfeng was completely relieved after reading the contents of the letter: "I thought only our Xie family knew about it."
"Your Majesty has been busy all these years as King of Wei," Xie Rongying said calmly. "Since he was able to follow Shangguan Yao to find Shangguan Yan in Longxi, he must have sent people to keep an eye on him. Our Xie family knows about the mine in Lujiao Village, Yizhou, so how could he not know?"
Xie Changfeng nodded after hearing this: "In this case, we only need to deal with Qin Junyi."
As he spoke, Xie Changfeng handed the letter in his hand to Xie Rongying. Xie Rongying took it and said, "Go and prepare first. When I come back from the front yard, we'll start."
"good."
—
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and water droplets were dripping from the eaves to the ground like lines.
Xie Rongying walked through the curved corridor, looking at the rain under the gloomy light, her heart feeling particularly calm.
The servant guarding the side hall door saw Xie Rongying coming and immediately bowed and nodded, saying to the side hall, "My daughter is here."
Upon hearing this, Feng Qinghuan put down the teacup in his hand and stood up.
The moment he saw Xie Rongying, a strange look flashed in Feng Qinghuan's eyes.
Xie Rongying was also surprised. She had thought it was Shi Jiuyue, but unexpectedly it was a stranger. She walked to the center of the hall and looked at Feng Qinghuan: "Who are you...?"
Feng Qinghuan bowed and said, "My surname is Feng, and my name is Qinghuan."
Last name Feng?
Xie Rongying stared at Feng Qinghuan with a serious look in her eyes. After she sat down, she said, "Feng, Qinghuan?"
"I took my mother's surname." Feng Qinghuan stared at Xie Rongying's solemn face and knew that Xie Rongying knew something about the surname Feng: "My mother's name is Feng Peizhi."
Hearing this, the solemnity in Xie Rongying's expression faded a lot, but there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"Why are you looking for me?" Xie Rongying wasn't curious about the fact that Feng Qinghuan's mother was Feng Peizhi. She raised her eyes and stared at Feng Qinghuan meaningfully, chuckling softly, "Could it be because my father went to look for your mother?"
Feng Qinghuan knew that Xie Rongying knew some things about Xie Jing. When Chu Wennan received a young man from Bian Jing a few days ago, he learned some things about Xie Rongying from the young man.
This is also the reason why she came to find Xie Rongying.
She said, "Xie Da-Miss, I think by now you should know that your father has been imprisoned and my mother is dead."
"So you are here to seek revenge on me?" Xie Rongying stared at Feng Qinghuan with a faint smile, but she did not see any hostility from Feng Qinghuan.
Sure enough, Feng Qinghuan chuckled: "Do you think I'm here to cause you trouble?"
Xie Rongying made a "please sit down" gesture and said, "Miss Feng, if you have something to say, please speak directly."
Feng Qinghuan sat back on the pear blossom armchair and said, "Miss Xie, if I say your father was imprisoned because he was framed by Chu Wennan, would you believe it?"
The smile on Xie Rongying's lips slowly disappeared after hearing these words, and she stared at Feng Qinghuan without blinking.
"Miss Feng, just say what you want to say."
Xie Rongying naturally would not believe that Feng Qinghuan would come to tell her this for no reason, not to mention that the dead person was her mother, and her father was the murderer.
Feng Qinghuan seemed to see the disdain in Xie Rongying's heart and said bluntly: "Miss Xie, I came here to see you, not only to tell you about this matter, but also to tell you a piece of news. Chu Wennan is going to take action against your father tonight."
"Why did you come to tell me this?" Xie Rongying raised an eyebrow: "Do you have a grudge against Chu Wennan?"
Feng Qinghuan's eyes darkened slightly, and his voice was gloomy: "I want him to die."
Xie Rongying raised her eyebrows slightly. She did not miss the hatred in Feng Qinghuan's eyes. She was not interested in knowing why Feng Peizhi and her daughter were in Chu Wennan's backyard, or the grudge between the Feng and Xie families.
However, Feng Qinghuan came here to tell her this, so it seems that he came prepared.
"Ms. Feng, you want Chu Wennan to die, but you find me. Are you sure you didn't find the wrong person?" Xie Rongying smiled and pretended not to understand Feng Qinghuan's actions.
Feng Qinghuan smiled lightly: "Miss Xie, I am not asking you to kill Chu Wennan, but I want you and the people behind you to completely destroy everyone around Chu Wennan, including Shangguan Yan."
