Rebirth of the pastoral landlady

Chapter 353 Wen Ding's Life Experience (Two in One)

"Brother Wen, I believe what you say." Jin Xi pursed her lips and said softly.

"Just believe it." Wending said, "Next, do you want to ask about my family background?"

Jin Xi was stunned, she really wanted to know. "No, I don't force it." She said, Brother Wen has kept silent, there must be a reason for not telling, and he can't always ask.

"I didn't want to tell you before because the time hadn't come yet. Now, I've confirmed that the person I like is you, and only you. Whether you accept it or not, I have to confess to you so that you know, this What is the origin of the man who keeps saying that he likes you." He said with a light smile, with a hint of confusion at the corner of his mouth.

Jin Xi sat up straight and held her breath.

"Let me tell you a story first!" He smiled, slowly suppressed the smile in his eyes, and began to tell the story that he was ashamed of.

"The Tian family of this dynasty is surnamed Yun. Thousands of miles to the south, there is a city the size of Qing'an Prefecture, called Yunzhou, which is the fiefdom of King Yun."

"The first King Yun was the fourth uncle of the present-day sage. When the present-day sage was still the prince, he was not in power. It was this fourth uncle who supported him with powerful financial resources, recruited troops, and wooed various forces. This Fourth Uncle, who is as rich as a country, deserves a lot of credit."

"After the Holy Majesty succeeded to the throne, he gave amnesty to the whole world, and in order to reward the ministers with meritorious service, he granted the rich land of fish and rice in the south, Yunzhou, to my fourth uncle as a fief.

Jin Xi listened intently, not daring to interrupt, she had a premonition that the origin of Wending is definitely not ordinary.

"The first king of Yun, although rich as the enemy, was indifferent to fame and fortune by nature. After the emperor succeeded to the throne, he brought his family and children to Yunzhou, away from court disputes, and became an idle prince with a beautiful princess by his side. , accompanied by twelve beautiful concubines, living a happy life like a fairy."

One princess, twelve concubines?A man has to deal with so many women, the first King Yun seems to be a romantic seed!Jin Xi thought to herself.

"People always have flaws in the ointment. The only regret of Prince Yun is that heirs are difficult, the princess has nowhere to go, and the twelve concubines have no sons and half daughters. At that time, Qin Tianjian had an old prince Yun An old friend who had a very good personal relationship privately made a divination for Old Prince Yun, and the divination showed that Prince Yun had damaged too many virtues because of the things he did in his early years, and he was destined to end up alone without any children." Wen Ding Having said that, he paused.

Because Jin Xi couldn't help being surprised, "Is it because the first Lord Yun participated in the battle between the princes, and his hands were stained with blood?"

Wen Ding shook his head and said, "Whether it's the change of dynasty or the replacement of each generation of emperors, there must be some killings. Born in the royal family, this is inevitable."

"Then why, Prince Yun would lose so many virtues, and ask him to have no descendants?" Jin Xi asked puzzled.

Wending's eyes flickered slightly, he frowned, and said, "Lord Yun is as rich as a country, so he can help the current emperor to fight for the great treasure. However, the origin of these mountains of gold and silver from Lord Yun is unknown!"

"Unknown source?" Jin Xi asked in surprise, did she steal it?grab it?Killing for more?Oh my god, couldn't it be... from digging someone else's ancestral grave?

"As you guessed, it's the tomb robbery!" Wending nodded helplessly.

Jin Xi subconsciously raises her hand to cover her mouth, lest she be too surprised and make a sound.How could it be that the capital accumulation behind the aloof prince is so dark?It's incredible!
"Of course, such things as stealing people's ancestral graves cannot be rumored. Therefore, to the outside world, we can only make a false impression. It is said that there is a soldier under Lord Yun, who appears and disappears. The prince has great supernatural powers, and he was able to borrow Yin soldiers from Hades. Because every time Prince Yun took his army across the border, the graves were cracked and the coffins were lying on the ground. In fact, it is not the case. , those marching at night are actually a professional team of tomb robbers."

"Compared to Lord Yun's 'feat', my uncle is really a small fish!" Jin Xi couldn't help shaking her head with a wry smile, and Wen Ding also shook his head speechlessly.

"His Majesty is grateful for the great kindness of old prince Yun's support back then, and privately invited capable people from the Qin Tianjian to devise plans to break the curse for old prince Yun, and finally found a solution."

"When the old prince Yun was 50 years old, one of his concubines finally gave birth to a boy for him. Today, the Holy One is grateful for the merits of the old prince in his life, and he has a son when he is old. When he turns [-], he will successfully succeed the next King Yun. He also decreed that Yunzhou, which is rich in the south and has a pleasant climate, will be enshrined by Lord Yun, so that future generations will enjoy the holy light and enjoy the glory forever."

"People say that a tiger father has no dogs, but this old man of the old prince Yun is an exception. He cooks eagles and bets on horses, fights cocks and walks dogs, runs a money shop, visits brothels, raises actors, bets on male pets, is a romantic, a dandy. Uninhibited, without big ambitions, a fool who can't stick to the wall with mud!"

Jin Xi noticed that when Wending talked about the second King Yun, the disgust on his face was right in his eyes.

"The old King Yun married the daughter of the Wen family, a scholarly family in Yunzhou at that time, as his wife. However, the day after the marriage, the young King Yun brought back a beautiful and enchanting fisherman's daughter from outside, and brought him back A two-year-old boy..."

"The boy brought back by the fisherman's daughter is exactly the same as the young Lord Yun. Lord Yun doted on their mother and son. The fisherman's daughter Cang was raised as a noble concubine. The child entered the family tree of the royal family and was named Yun Su. It was Yun. The eldest son of the king, but not the legitimate son."

"Concubine Wen is a daughter of a scholarly family. She is talented and affectionate. Naturally, she is also cold and aloof. The fisherman's daughter was born by the sea and grew up in the market. Everyone was attracted by the fisherman's daughter, and Princess Wen was gradually isolated. Firstly, she was not favored, and secondly, she was out of power. A few months later, Princess Wen was pregnant. Life in Prince Yun's mansion is extremely depressing."

Jin Xi nodded silently, in this world, especially among the upper class dignitaries, women are always just appendages, even playthings.As a husband, he would go to appease him when he was happy, and if he was unhappy, he could not wait for ten days and a half months to come back, especially for the members of the royal family.

"One year later, Concubine Wen became pregnant again, and this time she finally gave birth to a son, named Yunling. The old prince Yun had a clear lineage, so he immediately asked the emperor to confer, and Yunling was canonized as the son of Prince Yun, the first son of Prince Yun. Three generations of cloud kings..."

Before Wen Ding finished speaking, Jin Xi, who had been sitting and listening across the way, suddenly stood up with a pale face.

"Brother Wen, you, could it be possible that you, you are the son of King Yun? The third generation of King Yun? The next master of Yunzhou City?" Jin Xi looked at Wen Ding in astonishment, and asked in a trembling voice. out.

Wen Ding was slightly taken aback, then laughed at himself, shook his head and said in disdain: "My mother is indeed that poor daughter of the Wen family, but I am not the eldest grandson of Prince Yun's mansion, let alone the son of Prince Yun!"

"Why? You've already admitted that your mother is Princess Wen!" Jin Xi was even more puzzled, her sleeve accidentally brushed the dessert plate on the table, and the candied fruit spilled out.

"Wait!" She paused when she thought of something, and said anxiously: "Since Brother Wen's mother is a daughter of the Wen family and not a daughter of the Fang family, then the shopkeeper Fang of Mingshan Pavilion..."

Mentioning the shopkeeper Fang of Mingshan Pavilion, Wending frowned again, punched the armrest of the chair beside him, and said in a painful voice: "Three months after Concubine Wen gave birth, in order to get rid of Yunling, the fisherman's daughter, Cang, Fighting for the throne for his son, trying to buy Fang Shi, the maid who is close to Princess Wen."

"The Cang family found out that Fang's brother's business was not going well, so he bought the pair of brothers and sisters with kindness and power. The Cang family ordered Fang to poison the little prince to death, but the Fang family was grateful for the kindness of Princess Wen and couldn't bear to do it. The Cang family couldn't explain, so the servant girl Fang had no choice but to be ruthless, stole the little prince, and accompanied her elder brother to Huhai County, where she concealed her name and named me Wending." "The matter was revealed immediately. Cang, the fisherman's daughter, was enraged by Old Prince Yun and given to death in public. As for that poor Princess Wen, the loss of her beloved son has become an indisputable fact. Frustrated, she shaved her hair and entered the Buddhist sect. The ancient Buddha no longer asks about world affairs."

Jin Xi took a deep breath, it turned out that Wending's background was so, so so!
"Brother Wen, how did you know all this? Did the Fang brothers and sisters tell you because of their conscience? Or what?" Jin Xi asked.

"In this world, bad people may have people or things they care about. However, they will never find out about the mistakes they made before." Wending said, his eyes turned cold, " It was Uncle Fu, he was a bodyguard who followed Princess Wen back then, just like Ah Cai treated you, he was the one who found me and told me everything, that year, when I was just eight years old, after my uncle , I will be a small waiter in the shopkeeper Fang's restaurant, and let them call me around!"

Jin Xi looked at Wending in astonishment. Can you imagine what kind of reaction and spiritual impact an eight-year-old child would have when he heard such a thunderous thing?
"It's ridiculous to think about it. My mother was framed by them, and she was lonely and desolate. But I have to call my mother for eight years to the sinner who stole me!" Wending laughed at himself twice, his face darkened , The corners of the lips were tightly pursed into a straight line.

In the front yard, fireworks should have been lit again, and the laughter of children and adults came from afar.The fire trees and silver flowers that exploded in the sky reflected on the windows here, and on the thick window paper, there were colorful lights and shadows.

In the room, the candles on the tray jumped out of a few candles from time to time, making a subtle crackling sound.

The young man sitting in the wheelchair is like the black robe on his body. When the thick mysterious atmosphere spreads out bit by bit, the truth after the truth is revealed is so sad, indignant, and in the end Had to turn into a lament!
Sigh that the world is unpredictable, lament the teasing of fate, and lament the blunders.

"Brother Wen, do you hate them?" Jin Xi asked.

Wen Ding raised his eyes, and there was a bottomless dark vortex in his eyes. Hearing this, he smiled sadly and said, "Hate, how can you not hate?"

"Even if you hate, how do you take revenge?" Jin Xi couldn't help asking, the culprit, the Cang family, is dead, after all, the Fang family brothers and sisters raised Wending for eight years.

"The Lord Buddha was swallowed by a peacock in one bite. Later, the Lord Buddha was reborn and wanted to take the life of the peacock. All the gods persuaded him that since he had passed through the peacock's belly, he would be the same as his biological mother. You can't kill him! Besides, people say that you are born with kindness. It's better to raise Enda, Brother Wen, you must not let him go, right?" Jin Xi sighed, the more she looked at Wending, the more she felt that he was a tragic figure.

Wen Ding's face was full of pain and confusion, but he still nodded and said, "I robbed my uncle of everything and made him lie at my feet like a dog. His two sons, Fang Lingyu, were sent to the north by me. Fang Lingzhi was sent to the imperial palace by me to practice in the army in a bitter and cold place in Xinjiang. As for the 'mother' who received my filial piety for eight years for nothing, I sent her to Hanshan Temple thousands of miles away to become a monk. Ni!"

"Xi'er, isn't Brother Wen very selfish and ruthless in all these revenges?" Wen Ding looked at Jin Xi with a wry smile, his eyes were dark and unfamiliar.

"Brother Wen, you are neither a god nor a saint, you are just an ordinary person with your own emotions and desires!" Jin Xi walked over, knelt down beside him, and said softly.

"For those sinners who committed the most heinous crimes and separated the flesh and blood of others, it is right to cut them into pieces. Not only did you not kill them with a single knife, but you did so. This shows that you, Brother Wen, have a kind heart like Princess Wen. Straightforward."

"I know you're trying to comfort me." Wending smiled wryly, but the darkness in his eyes faded slightly.

"I don't need to comfort you with duplicity, I'm just speaking from the bottom of my heart. If something like this happened to me, I don't know how to deal with it. I'm afraid that I will be the one who breaks down in the end." Jin Xi said.

Wending didn't speak, but quietly looked at Jin Xi.Even if the whole world is against him, as long as the girl in front of him can understand him, that's enough.

"Brother Wen, do you still remember that strange person I mentioned to you before?" Jin Xi asked suddenly.

"You mean... Cangyun?" Wending asked.

Jin Xi nodded, "If my guess is correct, Cang Yun should be the child brought back by Cang, a fisherman's daughter, and your half-brother Yun Su, right?"

Wen Ding nodded lightly, and said: "Well, although they are brothers, they have never grown up under the same roof. He has always attributed the death of his mother to me by Old Prince Yun. Over the years, he did not know what to do. Wherever I caught some clues, I have been searching for my whereabouts in secret, trying to kill me. He is three years older than me, already 21, but the old prince Yun has not played for a long time, and asked the emperor to decree to change him as King Yun Prince, only by killing me can his position be as stable as a rock!"

Jin Xi was stunned, and her expression suddenly changed.Cang Yun, no, it should be said Yun Su, Yun Su spent such a long time with her family under the roof of her house!Oh my god, thinking about it now, Jin Xi is trembling all over.It turns out that it is not the story of the farmer and the snake, but Mr. Dong Guo and the wolf!

"Your leg injury was caused by Yun Su, right?" Jin Xi asked.

Wen Ding glanced at his completely unconscious knee, fell silent for a while, and said, "Yun Su is a ruthless character, the most powerful opponent I have ever met."

Jin Xi recalled Cang Yun's pretending to be pitiful at that time, so she couldn't help cursing in a low voice: "That man is as cunning as a fox, and he pretends to be very deep. If I had known that there was such a hostile relationship between him and you, then I would have It’s time to replace that bag of laxatives with rat poison, poison him to death and bury him in the willow forest behind him!”

Wen Ding was slightly taken aback when he heard this, and then laughed in a low voice.

"Brother Wen, what are you laughing at? I'm serious, you don't know, that guy tricked my parents to go around in order to wait in my house and wait for a rabbit to catch you. He serves delicious food and drinks every day, and he feels terribly guilty! " Jin Xi said angrily.

Wen Ding stopped laughing, looked at Jin Xi, and suddenly said: "So it was because of your bag of laxatives. No wonder I fought against him at that time and found that he had a loss of Qi. If it wasn't because of his loss of Qi, I wouldn't be able to take it from him." I rescued Ngawang Agui and escaped unscathed, that's how it is!"

Jin Xi waved her hand in embarrassment, thinking of the incompatible positions between Cang Yun and Wending, she hurriedly asked: "Hey, let the tiger go back to the mountain, now that your legs are injured, will Yun Su come to take advantage of others again?"

Wending shook his head, and said: "No, now, not only will he not come to kill me again, but on the contrary, he hopes that I will live a good life!"

Jin Xi was puzzled, and Wen Ding continued: "In his eyes, the position of King Yun's son can no longer be tolerated. Because he already has a higher goal."

Jin Xi squinted her eyes, and said: "Could it be..." She didn't say the following words, but pointed her finger in the direction of the capital.

Wen Ding nodded knowingly, and said: "The royal family is also difficult to have children. Prince Yu died young, and the Holy Majesty is heartbroken. Within the royal family, the selection of outstanding candidates has already begun, and finally four people have been appointed to the capital to be tested by the Holy Majesty and the Queen Mother." , the last one left will be stationed in the East Palace, and if nothing else happens, he will be the next emperor!"

When Wending said this, Jin Xi already understood.As members of the royal family, the outstanding juniors of Prince Yun's Mansion naturally also had to be shortlisted for the screening examination.

The royal family is the largest family. In Jinxi's own understanding, the royal family has no successors, so they have to choose a good son from other cousins ​​and uncles to adopt him.If a certain uncle has only one seedling left in his own family, he considers himself unsuitable for adoption.Therefore, Yun Su will not kill Yun Ling again, because Yun Ling is Yun Su's backup.

"Xi'er doesn't understand and doesn't want to understand important national affairs. I just want to take care of my three-acre land, so that the harvest will be better every year!" Jin Xi stood up and moved her joints a few times.He turned back to the table and poured a cup of tea for Wending and himself.

"Xi'er, at the dinner table tonight, you replaced the bowl of wine with honey water, right?" Wending asked with a smile as he flicked the lid of the cup with his slender fingers, the tenderness in his eyes couldn't be concealed.

Jin Xi couldn't stand being looked at by his gentle eyes, feeling uncomfortable all over.She nodded with a smile, hummed, and sat aside with a warm cup of tea in her hands to drink tea.

The two talked for a long time, and the time passed quickly without knowing it.Outside the house, there were faint footsteps, as well as Wen Qing and the others talking and laughing. It seemed that they were coming towards the west wing.Once they come back, the conversation tonight can only stop here.

Jin Xi put down her teacup, pursed her lips and smiled at Wending, and said, "I can sleep soundly when I go back tonight, because I finally know who Brother Wen really is, hehe."

"Thank you, Third Aunt, for creating such a precious opportunity to be alone for you and me tonight. Unfortunately, I didn't grasp it." Wen Ding raised his head and smiled wryly, his eyes wrapped her gently, with nostalgia, but his tone was full of regret .

Jin Xi's cheeks flushed slightly, she understood what Wending said.This rare opportunity to be alone tonight was mainly aimed at the children between the two of them. While talking, the topic went off track, and it turned into digging up Wending's life experience.

"Brother Wen, I need a little more time to digest what you said to me tonight! Uh, as for the two of us...it will be a long time in the future, and we will discuss it another day. You, get some rest earlier, so you don't have to watch the year!" Jin Xi said.

Wending didn't make a sound, just nodded slightly, and followed her with nostalgic and regretful eyes.

Jin Xi smiled again, waved her hands, turned and walked towards the door.When she was about to press the doorknob with her hand, she turned around suddenly, her eyes met, and a flash of obvious surprise flashed in Wending's eyes.

"Xi'er, what's wrong?" He asked softly.

"Well, Brother Wen, now that I know your real name is Yun Ling, shall I call you Brother Wen or Brother Yun from now on? Uh, Doctor Wen Qing seems to call you Brother Ling?" A look of confusion flashed across Jin Xi's face, and she continued to ask: "Or, call you Shizi Yun?"

Hearing the name Yun Ling, Wen Ding's expression flashed a dark and obscure one.Apparently, he had mixed feelings about the name.

"A name is just a code name, such as A, B, C, and D." Wen Ding stared at Jin Xi quietly, and said word by word: "Xi'er, no matter who I was before or who I will be in the future, whether it is changing time and space, identity, or Name, I am your brother Wen, you have to remember."

"If, one day you go back to Yunzhou and become the King of Yun, with countless scenery around you, will you still be my Brother Wen?" Jin Xi asked, looking at him without blinking.

Wen Ding's gaze suddenly deepened, the hotness and affection in his eyes seemed to melt Jin Xi away.

Eyes are the windows to the soul, Jin Xi is not blind, she can see all the strong love in Wen Ding's eyes clearly, and her heart throbs with it.

However, there are some things that must be said when they are said, even if they are a little unpleasant, they must be said clearly, so as not to fall into too deep and hurt too deeply.

"If I like a man, I will dedicate my heart to him. But in the same way, he must treat me like this. What I want is the only one for each other, not one of each other's lives. Brother Wen, can you do this?"

Jin Xi stared fixedly at Wending, and asked word by word.

This is an era of patriarchal dominance. The more high-ranking a man is, the more women will surround him, singing birds and flowers.

Leaving aside the notion of family status, the first thing Jin Xi wants to ascertain about the man's heart is his attitude.

Even though she knew that it would be unbelievable and even difficult for him to make such a request to a native Wending, but Jin Xi had to make things difficult for this difficulty!
"Xi'er..." He murmured softly, his beautiful phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, and complicated and difficult emotions surged in his eyes.

"Brother Wen, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, and some things can't be rushed all the time. We two, let's think about it later. You have a good rest, I'm leaving!" After finishing speaking, Jin Xi opened the door and nodded. He left the house without returning, and never stayed again.
