The journey of the heavens by Jia Huan, the salted fish

Chapter 191 Children
Jia Huan turned a corner and walked into a small alley.

This is the shortcut back to Rongguo Mansion, and it is also the alley behind Qi Guogong's mansion.There is no back door corner door in this alley.

Jia Huan was very fast, and he was about to walk out of this alley, when suddenly a shrill child's cry came to Jia Huan's ears.

"Auntie!"

What followed was the miserable cry of the child.

Jia Huan thought to himself that this must be the death of the concubine of Duke Qi's mansion.

It has nothing to do with him.

But what the child said next made Jia Huan stop.

"Auntie, wait for Qier, Qier will go with you now."

The child's voice is very immature, but full of death will.

Jia Huan was shocked.

He is not the Holy Father, but it is impossible for a child to die in front of him without stopping him.

If it is an adult who wants to commit suicide, Jia Huan will stop that person depending on his mood, but this is a child.

Jia Huan immediately performed lightness kung fu, jumped over the high wall of Duke Qi's mansion, and jumped into the place where the voice came from.

This is a very remote and dilapidated small courtyard, ten times worse than Jia Huan's small courtyard.

Weeds were overgrown inside, the windows had no window paper, and the window frames were rotten, which could not protect the house from the wind.

There is only one breath in the whole yard, that child's breath, and there is no one else.

There are no servants.

If this child is really a concubine of Duke Qi's mansion, then his life will be really miserable.

In the room, the sad child struggled to stand up, suddenly gathered strength, and slammed his head against the wall.

The expected pain did not come, and he held the child with both hands.

The child opened his eyes and found that the person pulling him was a teenager he had never seen before.

The child doesn't know how the boy appeared, he only has one thought now: he wants to leave with his aunt.

"Let go of me, I'm going to find my aunt."

The child struggled violently, but he was thin and small, hadn't eaten for a long time, and had no strength at all.

For Jia Huan, his struggle was not as strong as a cat's struggle in Jia Huan's hands.

"Your aunt won't want to see you go to her." Jia Huan said, "Your aunt wants you to live a good life."

The child whimpered and cried: "I can't live without my aunt."

The child's shrill cry was so loud that it was heard by the servants in the mansion.

Although this yard is remote, there are still servants nearby.

A servant came to investigate the situation and found that the child's aunt was dead, and reported to the head mistress of the Qi State Duke's Mansion.

I don't know what Mrs. Chen ordered, but the servants rolled up my aunt in a broken mat and found someone to throw her into a mass grave.

No one cares about this kid.

It was already dinner time, but no one brought the food.

The children have nothing to eat and can only suffer from hunger.

No wonder he said he couldn't survive.

This Chen family member wants to starve the child to death.

A stern look flashed in Jia Huan's eyes.

The people of Qi Guogong's mansion treat a child like this, it can be seen that there is no good person.

Compared with the wife in charge of Duke Qi's mansion, Jia Huan is definitely a good person to Mrs. Wang.

At least Mrs. Wang will not let Jia Huan go hungry.

Even if Mrs. Wang doesn't want Jia Huan to study, she just lures Jia Huan to have fun, instead of destroying Jia Huan with vicious means.

Compared with this child, Jia Huan felt that his life was a paradise.

The child has fallen on the bed crying.

Crying consumes a lot of energy, and the child must have not eaten for a long time, and his body is weak and has no strength.

Even if he wanted to commit suicide now, he couldn't achieve it.

Jia Huan sighed, picked up the child, and took him away from Duke Qi's mansion.

The Duke of Qi's mansion treats this child as non-existent, even if he takes the child away for a few days, no one will find out.

Feng Ziying hadn't left the base yet, and was startled when she saw Jia Huan approaching with a child in her arms.

"Who is this child?"

Jia Huan: "I brought it out from Duke Qi's mansion. The child is starving to death, so ask someone to prepare some gruel for him."

Feng Ziying appointed a subordinate and took over the children.

"What's the matter with this child?" Feng Ziying asked Jia Huan.

Jia Huan then told Feng Ziying how he met the child.

Feng Ziying frowned: "What's the matter with Chen Ruiwen? Even if you don't like the bastard, you shouldn't treat him that way."

The subordinates on the side said: "Mrs. Chen is in charge of the backyard."

Jia Huan: "Chen Ruiwen is the head of the family. It is impossible for him not to know that the concubine is being tortured like this, but he chose to let it go."

Jia Huan continued: "I always feel that this matter is weird, and I need to investigate it carefully."

In a big family, it is rare to torture a concubine like this.

If you don't want the bastard to live, just make a conspiracy to take the bastard's life away, why should you keep your life for a long time?

And the biological father doesn't care.

The spies have collected a lot of information about the four kings and eight lords, and they can find clues from the pile of materials without further investigation.

It turned out that the child Jia Huan rescued was called Chen Qi, not Chen Ruiwen's child, but his eldest brother's child.

Above Chen Ruiwen, there is an older brother who is the true heir of the Duke of Qi's mansion.

It's just that Brother Chen died young, and he fell off his horse when he was out hunting, and died directly.

Brother Chen had only three daughters at the time, and had no children yet, so the title fell to his second son, Chen Ruiwen.

After Chen Ruiwen inherited the title, Mrs. Chen discovered that one of Brother Chen's concubines was pregnant with Brother Chen's posthumous child.

Chen Ruiwen and Mrs. Chen concealed this news from the outside world, and outsiders didn't even know that Big Brother Chen had a son.

Chen Qi and his aunt were arranged to live in the most remote courtyard of Duke Qi's mansion, and they had a decent life for the first two years.

Chen Ruiwen felt that Chen Qi, a bastard, was no threat to him.

But the problem lies with Chen Qi's third sister.

Chen Qi's third sister believed that the title originally belonged to the eldest son, and her younger brother was the most orthodox heir to the title. When Chen Qi grew up, the second wife should return the title to the eldest son.

In fact, she has selfish intentions. The status of Cheng Jue's younger brother's sister is higher than that of Miss Bunzhi.

She wants to have a high status so that she can marry the prince.

Her words and manipulations angered Chen Ruiwen and his wife. The two directly married the third sister to a remote area to fill a house for others, and then felt that Chen Qi was a threat.

Life became difficult for Chen Qi and his aunt.

In winter, there is no charcoal fire for heating, and meals are also skipped.

The two years of survival are due to Chen Qi's aunt trying to get food, so that the mother and child will not starve to death.

Now, Chen Qi's aunt is dead.

If Chen Qi hadn't met Jia Huan, even if he didn't commit suicide, he wouldn't live for two days.

"It's just..."

Feng Ziying doesn't even know how to comment on the Chen family, what a crime!
