Extra Story: The Missing Child(1/2)
Yang Xianzhong was the first friend Wang Yizhen met after coming to Beijing. When he was not yet prosperous, he was taken care of by him. Later, Wang Yizhen discovered that Yang Xianzhong was from the King of Chu, and the two of them had less contact. But even so, Wang Yizhen did not
Who had ever doubted him? Who would have thought that he still had such an identity? When he heard about it from Wan Gonggong, Wang Yi really wanted to kick him.
Yang Xianzhong is the child Wang Shilian bought.
Generally speaking, children do not have strong memory ability before they are three years old. If an ordinary child is abducted at the age of three, he may remember that he is not a child of this family, but generally he cannot remember who he is.
, But Yang Xianzhong is different. He has been known as a child prodigy since he was a child. It is said that when he was three or four years old, he could recite a hundred poems. He does not remember who he is or what experiences he has had. This Wang Yi is really
Don’t believe it. She treats him as a friend, but he treats her as an outsider. Speaking of which, everyone is a victim. It’s a bit hateful to be so defensive.
Yang Xianzhong shook his head and said: "I am also a secret guard, because what happened at the beginning belonged directly to the Holy Emperor, and when I came to Chu Wei, I also acted as an ambush. How can I say this directly, but I also hinted to you that it was you
If you didn’t find it, you can’t blame me.”
Wang Yizhen was stunned for a moment: "You hinted at me?" Is there such a thing?
"It's true." Yang Xianzhong said: "I said I am 19 years old this year."
Wang Yizhen nodded. When she first came to Beijing to meet Yang Xianzhong, he had said that, but so what? At that time, Wang Yizhen firmly believed that the other party was attracted by her beauty and came to chat with her, and because Yang Xianzhong said he was 19 years old, so
Wang Yizhen has never considered him. The children Xiao Waner has passed around are all 17 or 18 years old.
Yang Xianzhong sighed loudly: "You are not stupid, but you can't just be so ignorant about things that don't come into your mind, right? You have forgotten what I said about my father."
Yang Xianzhong's father, Yang Jinren, never married because he was obsessed with Xiao Waner. He even knew that the emperor also liked Xiao Waner, but Xiao Waner was unwilling to marry. After that, he became one of the few suitors who had the courage to propose. But Xiao Waner finally rejected him.
Yang Jinshi gave him half a copy of "Bao Gong'an" as a gift in return for his love. Yang Jinshi misunderstood the book and later swore that he would not marry a wife in his life, but would only take concubines.
"My father took concubines after your mother got married, so do you think there is no problem with me being 19 years old?" Yang Xianzhong asked.
Wang Yizhen said "Ah" and suddenly realized. Xiao Wan'er hated scumbags the most. If Yang Jinren had already married a concubine and came to propose marriage, she would never give him a book. Going a step further, if Yang Jinren was rich
If he takes a concubine, he will not be so poor that he will live on the street and be picked up by Xiao Waner.
Xiao Waner originally got pregnant first and then got married, so if Yang Jinren married a concubine after that, he would have extraordinary abilities and would not be able to give birth to a son older than Wang Yizhen.
"My father's identity as a secret guard was recommended to the late emperor by Mrs. Xiao, so the Li family accepted me that day. Knowing that I was just bought from outside, they sent me to the orphans adopted by the secret guard. Later, I was
Seeing that I was indeed smart, my father agreed to adopt me. In order to settle my identity, he took a new concubine. People in the capital only thought that my father had a concubine in his hometown and brought me with his children.
, people in my hometown thought that my father was a concubine married in Beijing, so they confirmed my identity. But I always remember that I was snatched away from my adoptive mother, came to the Wang family, and then was snatched to the Li family.
thing."
"So that's it..." Wang Yizhen nodded: "Then I was wrong, right? This is really... a reminder to me." Then Wang Yizhen paused and said, "This is wrong... you
Have you been to Li’s house too?”
Wang Shilian did say that he bought a boy and Xiao Waner sent it to the Li family, but Ziyi said that Xiao Waner sent him a girl at that time, but Wan Gonggong also said that the Li family had inquired about Tibet from Juishang.
The child's address was snatched from a child and hidden by the Li family.
Yang Xianzhong now said that she had been robbed by the Li family. Doesn't that mean that he was the child betrayed by Jushuang? But the secret guard did have records. The two people handled by the Li family were both boys, and they also had specific whereabouts.
If you put it this way, what is hidden in the Li family is actually the girl that Xiao Waner took the initiative to send to the Li family?
What's going on...it was quite chaotic with just a few children, but now it's even more chaotic.
Wang Yizhen frowned and couldn't figure it out, so Yang Xianzhong said: "You haven't figured out what happened to us, right? It's quite simple, but you made it too complicated."
"Am I making things complicated? This is really complicated, right?" Don't look at just four kids. It's more complicated than playing mahjong...
"Actually, it's not complicated." Yang Xianzhong thought for a moment and helped her to rationalize: "There are only four children in total."
I know you are a master at investigating cases, but four children have already made a mess. How can I use the word "total"?
Yang Xianzhong said: "Look, in this case, there are two boys and two girls. It is known that I am a boy and you are a girl, so there is another boy and a girl."
"Yes, but I also know who that boy is." Wang Yizhen thought for a moment and then revealed Zhou Fuxing's identity.
"Then no matter what the adults agreed back then or how they changed it, there are two boys and one girl anyway, and the missing one must be a girl." Ignoring the details, of course there is no way to consider them. The parties involved are almost dead, but it is true
This is correct in terms of numbers.
"Then just think, one girl must have disappeared, and you are the remaining girl. If you are Mrs. Xiao's daughter, it means that the other girl is fake, and it doesn't matter. Anyway, you are now famous.
Not only is she a world-famous talented woman, but she has also become a father-in-law... and she has been blessed with all five blessings. And if you are not Mrs. Xiao's daughter, it means that girl has been living a quiet life in a place unknown to others.
Isn’t it great to live a life with no one to disturb you and follow Mrs. Xiao’s wishes?”
"..." I heard it so fiercely... It's really true... If Wang Yi really didn't insist on finding out whose baby she was, this would indeed be...
Otherwise, Xiao Waner's daughter is already famous all over the world. Although it is a bit fake, she still supports her mother's reputation.
Otherwise, Xiao Waner's daughter has already lived a peaceful life in obscurity, which has put an end to Xiao Waner's worries.
"You mean... you don't want me to check anymore?"
"It's no good to find out..." Yang Xianzhong said: "I don't know what identity Xiao Waner assigned to the missing child. If you find out, you will suddenly be exposed to the world. This circle of nobles in Beijing
, you have seen it before, can ordinary people adapt to it? No, if you suddenly give someone the title of a slave and an illegitimate daughter, will they accept it? I advise you to give up, not everyone can tolerate it like you.
, maybe the other person likes to live such a peaceful life?"
"That... makes sense... right?" This was the first time since coming to Beijing that someone had advised Wang Yizhen to retreat bravely. That was the end of it. But indeed, what Yang Xianzhong said was reasonable. Emperor Qisheng was dead.
Baoshu recognized her as his master (or in other words, no matter how bad English she was, only she could use it), and the new emperor regarded her as his younger sister. There was no point in her trying to figure out what was true or false, but...
"Wait a minute, why do I hear that there is something wrong in your words?" Wang Yizhen said: "You seem to know that the other person just wants to live a peaceful life..."
"It really doesn't mean that... I just feel it." Yang Xianzhong said: "Maybe I have been waiting for you for so long today because I am asking for something from you."
"What's up?"
"After all, there are still many people in this world who like to live a peaceful life. I want to ask you two things today. Firstly... I no longer want to be a secret guard, but the secret guard organization has always been lenient in entry and strict in exit.
And everything is focused on intelligence. To put it bluntly, I am a spy, but actually I still want to be an official quietly and do my job well."
Yang Jinren and Yang Xianzhong are both officials, but they are also secret guards. To put it bluntly, they are undercover people. If they are placed in this organization, they will have the obligation to report to their superiors. They need to pay attention to the movements of the people around them at all times and their means of promotion.
It's not about political achievements, it's about snitching all the time.
Yang Jinren was from a poor family at that time, with no roots or background in the capital. Emperor Qisheng liked to use such people, and only by relying on Emperor Qisheng could Yang Jinren be promoted to the rank of Dajin Temple Minister. But Yang Xianzhong was different. Although the prince also wanted
Reorganize the secret guard, but he was originally placed next to the King of Chu, so use it... The prince is not at ease, no need to use it, it is still left by the old man. Unless Yang Jinren can report some great achievements of the King of Chu's rebellion in the future, otherwise
He will always be a sinecure among the secret guards, and his sinecure as a secret guard will become an obstacle to his promotion. For the sake of his own future, Yang Xianzhong must get out of the secret guard as soon as possible.
"Okay." Wang Yizhen nodded. This matter shouldn't be difficult to handle. After all... there are only a few people who can investigate cases easily. Yang Xianzhong's ability is already higher than those with the same qualifications.
When the Crown Princess was still there, she once thought of bringing Xia Liangying from the Xia family to fight with him, but she failed to suppress him. Now Xia Liangying is likely to become the new leader of the Crown Prince's secret guards, and Yang Xianzhong is still serving as a casualty under him.
It's really too miserable.
"I'll go talk to Your Majesty about this matter. It shouldn't be difficult. Is there anything else?" Wang Yizhen asked.
"Well... there is one more thing." Yang Xianzhong said, suddenly his face turned a little red. "I heard that you like to play matchmaker recently?"
Ghosts like to play matchmaker, but a bunch of adulterers are either relatives or friends. What can she do?
"Who are you attracted to?" Wang Yizhen asked.
To be honest, the people around her who can make the decision for him, except for the two noble ladies Li Xingxing and Wang Yuanniang, are all ordinary people. As for Yang Xianzhong's identity, if she is a girl from an ordinary family, there is no need to find her. He
Could it be that he is attracted to Li Xingxing? But Wang Yizhen is completely inseparable from Li Xingxing now...
While hesitating, Yang Xianzhong said: "I am your relative, so I can only ask you to agree."
Wang Yizhen now has a lot of relatives. His mother has found his uncle, his stepfather has found his best friend, and his younger brother has married his younger sister. It is almost a mess, but the one who is young, suitable, and unmarried... seems to be Li Xingxing. "Okay,
I'll go ahead and say it, as long as Li Xingxing agrees."
"Wait a minute, this is the wrong person." Yang Xianzhong's expression changed: "Who said it was a girl from the Li family."
Then who else is a relative whom Yang Xianzhong cannot reach, who dares not propose marriage, and who needs her to come forward to negotiate an agreement?
Wang Yizhen thought for a long time and suddenly thought of someone. "Han family? Han Linghua?"
My future husband's uncle's family are also relatives. Han Linghua of the Han family is 18 years old and is not engaged yet. Although Wang Yizhen thinks that 18 is really young, this age is considered quite old in the capital.
The Han family is also unlucky. They have been in mourning one after another. This has only been less than a year, and they are caught up in the national mourning. It seems that Han Linghua will not have to worry about delaying until 20.
Yang Xianzhong saw that Wang Yizhen did not say anything about the strange candidate, and nodded: "The Han family is also a marquis, and I am a civil servant. I am afraid it will be a bit difficult to propose marriage to his family."
Wang Yi really thought about it and realized that she was really suitable. Let’s not mention the relationship. Although she was considered a noble lady, she was famous for her literary talent. Not to mention whether she had it or not, at least she stood up to Xiao Waner’s daughter all day long.
Because of her name, the civil servants had to recognize her. But what she actually wanted to ask was, how did Yang Xianzhong fall in love with Han Linghua? These civil servants and military generals are not the same system...
"Well..." Yang Xianzhong thought about what to say, but before he could speak, his face became even redder. He didn't know what unspeakable things he thought of. After blushing, he said: "Didn't I say it before? I
When I was a child, I was robbed by the Li family and lived in the Li family for a while."
"Oh? So?"
"I met her at Li's house at that time, and we played together for a while. At that time, I promised to marry her in the future, but I only knew her by her nickname. She said that her mother often called her Xiaoguai, so I also
I called her like this, but never asked her name. I kept looking for her but couldn't find her...Last time something happened to Li Xingxing, I saw her again, but at that time...there were a lot of things that were not easy to say.
I have always kept it in my heart, and now I finally..."
Wang Yizhen's mouth was full of laughter: "Weren't you 3 or 4 years old when you were brought to Li's house? At this age, you know that you will be privately engaged for life?" Are all children in ancient times so precocious? Wang Yizhen suddenly felt that it was possible not to get married at the age of 18.
It's a serious crime.
