Rebirth of the Splendid Phoenix

Chapter 97
Xie Jinhua opened the door, and it was clear at a glance that there was no one in the empty yard.

"lily."

Xie Jinhua yelled, and Lily ran in from the yard: "Miss."

"Did anyone pass by the yard just now?"

As Xie Jinhua asked, he glanced around the yard calmly, especially those dark corners where people could hide, and there was no one there.

"Xiaohe and I have been watching with good eyes just now. Don't worry, Miss, even a cat can't hide from the four eyes of the two of us."

Lily smiled and said in affirmation.

Xie Jinhua sent Lily to continue watching, then turned around and re-entered the door, and when the door was closed, she looked out again.

"Hua'er, it's getting late, so I'll go back first. You remember what Second Aunt said and take it to heart."

The second lady was also startled by that moment just now, she obviously didn't plan to continue talking, when Xie Jinhua turned around and entered the room, the second lady had already put on the cloak she put aside, picked up her hand stove, and was about to leave .

Although it is an old story, it is a taboo in Xie's residence. If it can be said, no one would dare to mention it for more than ten years.

Whether it was the letter of thanks, Mrs. Huang, or the old lady, they all kept a close eye on this matter. Those insiders were all sold or disappeared.

The second wife knew about this, and it was because of her hatred for Huang that she inquired many ways, and only then did she know some inside information.

If it weren't for Xie Jinhua's current situation, and the obvious disagreement with Huang, the second wife would not have taken the risk to say these words to Xie Jinhua.

After all, although she is the second wife of the mansion, her husband is only a small official, and he is a small official who is released and doesn't care much about her.

"Second Aunt, do you know the girl's name?"

Xie Jinhua suddenly opened his mouth and asked.

If Huang's pregnancy is false, then the pregnant woman may be her biological mother.

It is impossible to say how deep the feelings are for a mother who has never been masked, let alone a mother who is only guessing.

But Xie Jinhua just wanted to know the name of that woman, who seemed to be his mother.

At least, she needs to know her name.

As for the life and death of the other party, Xie Jinhua did not ask.

Because she didn't dare to ask, because she guessed that the other party would not be alive.

If he was alive, how could it be possible for so many years without the slightest word leaking out? If he was alive, how could he be able to not even see her for so many years?
The second lady looked at Xie Jinhua's indifferent face, and hesitated for a while: "I only know that the old lady seems to call her Ah Li."

The second wife had already left, Xie Jinhua sat on the stool and didn't move for a long time.

Ah Li, Ah Li, the name was continuously deposited in Xie Jinhua's heart, sinking into the deepest part of his heart, and all that remained was utter bitterness.

For a moment, Xie Jinhua even hoped that what the second wife said was false and that she was really Huang's biological daughter.

Bai He came in and saw Xie Jinhua sitting there motionless, with a dazed expression and some doubts: "Miss, did the Second Madam say something to you?"

Did Xie Jin draw such a dazed look by saying something?
Xie Jinhua came back to his senses: "It's nothing, the second aunt told me something, I was thinking about something just now."

Xie Jinhua smiled, but the smile was a little shallow.

While talking, Xie Jinhua got up, tripped over something when he was walking, and was crooked, but fortunately, Lily quickly supported him: "Miss, be careful, what if you accidentally fall?" manage."

Lily felt that something was wrong with Xie Jinhua, but the other party obviously didn't want to say anything more, and she couldn't ask any more questions, so she could only wait for Xie Jinhua to sleep more carefully, and then went to the side room to guard.

Xie Jinhua was lying on the bed with her eyes closed, she didn't feel sleepy for a long time, until the third watch gongs and drums were struck on the street, she felt her head slowly getting dizzy, she gradually closed her eyes, and fell asleep.

The closed door opened silently, and Zheng Qianqiu slowly walked to Xie Jinhua's bed, looking at that beautiful face.

Even in his sleep, he frowned tightly, as if there was something embarrassing in his heart that couldn't be resolved.

He still hasn't come to his senses until now, because of what the second lady said.

Even though he had some doubts in his heart, because of Mrs. Xie and Xie Han's vows, he was still more inclined to believe that Xie Jinyao was Ah Li's daughter.

So he never left the capital during this time.

When gossip about Xie Jinyao and King Qi spread in the capital, he even thought about how to help Xie Jinyao.

Even if he doesn't like Ah Li's daughter, even if Xie Jinyao's actions are too embarrassing, he is not willing to let her be wronged and sidelined.

Ah Lu's daughter cannot be wronged.

In the end, Zheng Qianqiu only had one thought, even though this daughter was born by Alu and Xie Han.

He came to eavesdrop outside Xie Jinhua's yard, just to prevent Xie Jinhua and his second wife from having any bad plans for Xie Jinyao.

No matter how good my impression of Xie Jinhua is, it cannot match the obsession in my heart.

But what did he hear?

He heard the second lady say that Huang's pregnancy was false, and that the pregnant woman who lived in the old lady's yard was named Ali.

Zheng Qianqiu's heart was in a mess, he didn't know who to believe, he didn't know if what the second lady said was true, what he did all these years would be meaningful.

At the moment when Xie Jinhua came out to see if anyone was there, he just wanted to avoid it, he didn't dare to see Xie Jinhua face to face.

But he didn't want to leave just like that.

Zheng Qianqiu hid outside Xie Jinhua's room, and waited for a long time, but Xie Jinhua didn't sleep, and he used his own special drug to make her fall asleep.

He just wanted to take a look at her.

It's not like he hasn't seen Xie Jinhua before, he knows what she looks like and what kind of temperament she is.

But Zheng Qianqiu just wanted to take another look at Xie Jinhua, after hearing what the second lady said, he took a good look at Xie Jinhua.

That beautiful face has many similarities with A-Li, those eyebrows, those eyes are definitely A-Li.

How could he have thought that there were only some similarities?

Zheng Qianqiu couldn't help stretching out his hand, wanting to caress the other person's eyebrows and soothe the sadness between the other person's eyebrows and eyes.

A hand was in front of his.

In the dark room, the young man's stern face seemed to be glowing with coldness.

"Don't touch her!"

Qin Zheng lowered his voice and let out a low growl, attacking Zheng Qianqiu with a gloomy face.

Zheng Qianqiu came to see what Xie Jinhua and the second wife said were unfavorable to Xie Jinyao.

Qin Zheng, on the other hand, finished the emperor's errands and had a little free time, thinking of Xie Jinhua, so he came to have a look.

Who knew Zheng Qianqiu reached out to touch Xie Jinhua's face when he came in.

Qin Zheng did not forget that when he first met Zheng Qianqiu, the other party was facing Xie Jinyao.

Even if Zheng Qianqiu not only didn't kill him, but also gave him some pointers, the fact that the other party came into Xie Jinhua's room in the middle of the night was enough for Qin Zheng to speculate on the other party with the greatest malice.

So it's a killer move with all your strength.

Without holding back at all.

It is also fortunate that Zheng Qianqiu is not a weak person, if not for him, this unexpected full force would be enough to seriously injure others.

Qin Zheng was merciless in his attacks, and Zheng Qianqiu was also merciless in fighting back after realizing that he did not know what he was doing in Xie Jin's painting room in the middle of the night.

It's just that the two of them coincidentally didn't make any more sound, and in an instant, they had gone through an unknown number of moves in silence.

Xie Jinhua, who was sleeping peacefully on the bed, suddenly moved a little, but Qin Zheng and Zheng Qianqiu heard it instantly.

The drug used by Zheng Qianqiu is specially made, colorless, odorless, and has no side effects.

It is said to be a drug, but it is actually more like a tranquilizer, which was prepared by Zheng Qianqiu for Ah Lu back then.

Therefore, this drug can make people fall asleep unconsciously, and it will also make people wake up easily like normal sleep.

After Xie Jinhua moved for a while, Qin Zheng and Zheng Qianqiu stopped their movements at the same time, one placed his hand on the other's heart, and the other's elbow touched the other's neck.

They didn't have time to exert their strength.

"Go out and fight."

Zheng Qianqiu whispered, first put down his hand.

Qin Zheng put down his hand at the same time, turned around and walked out.

Originally, Zheng Qianqiu was full of vigilance and killing intent, but the other party's instant reaction made Qin Zheng confirm that the other party had no malice towards Xie Jinhua.

The murderous intent on his body dissipated unknowingly, it was not a life and death fight, but a good fight.

The fact that the other party came to Xie Jin's painting room in the middle of the night always made him feel so angry.

The two people in the room all walked out, and the door was closed, as if no uninvited guest had ever come.

Xie Jinhua is still sleeping.

-

Qin Zheng and Zheng Qianqiu had a good fight. When they met for the first time, Qin Zheng was obviously not Zheng Qianqiu's opponent, but in the past month or so, Qin Zheng had more than doubled his combat experience after experiencing life and death. Thousands of autumns faced each other, and for a while, it felt like a dead end.

The two fought from the middle of the night until the sky was bright, and Zheng Qianqiu didn't want to fight anymore. After fighting for so long, the boredom and hesitation in his heart were almost vented.

The most important thing for him now is not to fight Qin Zheng, but to quickly mobilize all his manpower and do his best to find out what happened to Ah Li back then.

It's just that Zheng Qianqiu didn't want to fight, but Qin Zheng didn't want to just go there.

It was Zheng Qianqiu who moved the medicine powder on his body to restrain Qin Zheng.

Qin Zheng leaned weakly on the tree trunk behind him, Zheng Qianqiu's medicine powder made his whole body weak.

Qin Zheng also knows how to use medicine, but he only knows a few prescriptions taught by the old woman. Most of them are directly killed by blood. They are overbearing, but they are also conspicuous. Compared with Zheng Qianqiu's methods, they are much worse.

At this moment, he looked at Zheng Qianqiu with unfriendly eyes: "Your Excellency went to the women's boudoir in the middle of the night, what is your intention?"

He was restrained, but his momentum did not weaken at all, as if the restrained person was Zheng Qianqiu.

"Okay, if I want to kill you, I have something on my body that will make you die silently. If I really want to harm Miss Xie, I won't pass by at night. Some of my methods are in the daylight. kill people's lives."

Zheng Qianqiu is not a person who likes to explain, but thinking that Qin Zheng is also protecting Xie Jinhua, after a few simple explanations that are not an explanation, he stared at Qin Zheng: "What about you? A man went to visit an unmarried woman in the middle of the night. Boudoir, what are you doing!"

At this moment, he seemed to be looking at a wild man who had unreasonable thoughts about his daughter, his eyes were full of dissatisfaction.

Before investigating thoroughly, Zheng Qianqiu subconsciously began to regard Xie Jinhua as the daughter of himself and Ah Lu.

Qin Zheng looked at Zheng Qianqiu, and suddenly sneered, "What's the matter with Qianqing?"

Zheng Qianqiu felt that Qin Zheng's face was hideous.
