Chapter 1364: Xin Zijuan: The setting sun and the grass tree redeem people
Now the Wenxiang Sect not only has split branches such as Bangchui Hui, Long Tiandao and Mahayana Tianzhen Yuandun Sect, which are spreading across the Central Plains, but they are also echoed by the White Lotus Sect outside the Great Wall, in Yongping Prefecture, Hejian and even Shandong. It has a deep foundation. Under this situation, even Renqing is not sure what these Wenxiang believers want to do.
Hongqing Temple is not a branch of the Wenxiang Sect, but is held hostage by the Wenxiang Sect due to certain special factors. It has to compromise, obey their orders, and cooperate with some of their actions, but it still retains considerable autonomy.
“Senior brother, what do you mean?” The monk frowned, “If these guys want to rebel, what should we do?”
"Hmph, the Great Zhou Dynasty has not yet exhausted its power. I am afraid that the Wenxiang Cult can only think about such things as rebellion. We can't fall out with them yet, and let's observe their performance."
Master Renqing's face also looked a little ugly, and he felt uncomfortable being controlled by others, but he couldn't put all his money into it.
Hongqing Temple was a family property that he had worked hard for twenty years to accumulate, and now that he had finally managed to get into the position of the deputy chief of the Seng Gang Division, the Wenxiang Sect's group of people just took a fancy to his identity and Hongqing Temple. Will he hold on to his connections?
Now I can only take one step at a time. If I can't do it, I have to give up my family fortune and find another way out.
Of course, if these reckless dragons and snakes can really have such an earth-shaking momentum, then he will not hesitate to follow them and wave the flag, but at least for now, he will not firmly tie himself to the opponent. That is to annihilate the nine tribes. of.
“Senior brother, the man named Feng is leaving...”
Renqing also saw that Feng Ziying and the woman seemed to have returned to the temple gate, and the family members also filed out, preparing to board the car and return.
"I'm going to give it away, so you all must be careful. This guy is very careful. I heard that Su Daqiang's night murder case was unexpectedly discovered by him after he looked through the case files for a few days, and he solved the case in one fell swoop."
Renqing also felt a little guilty. It was true that Su Daqiang's case was too famous in Shuntian Prefecture. He went between the Criminal Department and Fuzhou several times but failed to solve the case. In the end, has Xiao Feng Xiuzhan come? Within a few days, the culprit was immediately captured after taking over the case. Now the newspapers in the capital have praised Feng Ziying as a contemporary Bao Wenzheng with eyes as bright as lightning.
Although I think I am very meticulous in my work and have never revealed my words in front of others, what if this person really has the ability to penetrate people's hearts?
“Senior brother, this guy named Feng came to our Hongqing Temple to teach...”
"Hmph, there are some of them here these past two days. They happened to be watching. They will definitely report it, so we can just report it honestly. These people have suffered a lot from Feng, so maybe they also want to If they want to come back with revenge, if they really have the ability to deal with the person named Feng, everyone will be happy."
Master Renqing sighed, "I'm afraid they don't have the courage, so I have to face them all day long."
Naturally, Feng Ziying didn't know that the conversation between herself and Xing Xiuyan was seen by others. As the Duan family and the others finished praying to Buddha, Feng Ziying accompanied them to prepare to return home. However, Baochai Baoqin and the others were very happy to see Xing Xiuyan, although Seeing that Xing Xiuyan had a frown on his face, and even the circles under his eyes were a little red and swollen, he was very understanding and didn't ask any more questions. After greetings, they returned to Feng Mansion together.
On the way, Feng Ziying ordered Baoxiang to immediately recruit Ni Er to his house, so Ni Er hurriedly arrived not long after returning to his house.
"This matter must have something to do with the Jia family. Wu Datou and Du Erxiao both know each other. They are famous at Desheng Bridge and Haiyinsa Bridge. Wu Datou is from a military household, but he is I have a citizenship, and with some connections in the capital camp, there is a group of people around the Haiyin Temple Bridge, and Lord Du Er should probably know that his elder brother Du Dalang, Du Binsheng, is the deputy commander of the Beicheng Army and Horses Division, and he also has this kind of relationship. , so I can enjoy the meal at Desheng Bridge. If the adults are at ease, I can leave it to the younger ones, but the Jia family’s eldest son..."
Ni Er knew that the relationship between Feng Ziying and the Jia family was very complicated, and it was also rumored that Jia She was going to give the second girl to Feng Ziying as a concubine. Why was it now rumored that the Xing girl was going to replace the second girl as a concubine for Uncle Feng, and the Xing girl was She was Jia She's niece. The relationship here was too complicated and he didn't want to get involved.
It is easy to solve the problem, but the relatives are talking about it. Maybe anyone can blow the pillow in Uncle Feng's ears, but I can't stand it.
Pushing himself out to solve this matter seems to have bound Xing Xiuyan to himself. On the one hand, it makes Xing Xiuyan grateful. On the other hand, a few thousand taels of silver is not a small amount. The Xing family naturally cannot replace it, but Xing Xiuyan gives himself Being a concubine seems to have solved everything, and it can even help the two families gain another level of kinship. It can be said to kill three birds with one stone.
Looking at it, Jia She is really a good person in making a living in these areas.
However, Feng Ziying still felt that something was wrong here. If he really wanted Xing Xiuyan to replace Yingchun, it seemed that Jia She didn't need to use such cumbersome methods. He should make it clear to himself that he should understand his temper. If Xiuyan was willing to be her concubine, but she didn't refuse.
So after thinking about it, Feng Ziying felt that he might as well see what kind of medicine Jia She was selling in his gourd. He really didn't expect that Jia She had gone to the point of being "crazy" and "desperate" in order to earn those thousands of taels of silver.
“Ni Er, in your opinion, what does Jia She want to do?” Feng Ziying asked.
"It's hard to say for this young one. Maybe you can ask Xiuyan girl to be your concubine first, and then the second girl will eventually marry her, so that he doesn't have to bear the debts of the Xing family. But because the second girl promised to the Sun family, I also want you to come up with the money collected by Bian'er. I've heard that it's a lot of money, tens of thousands of taels. The Sun family is saying that the Jia family is more ruthless than selling their daughter..."
Ni Er's plump face with thick beard smiled like a fox, and he said cheerfully: "If the uncle wants to take in the second girl, he will not only make up for the money given to the Sun family, but at least give the elder Mr. and Mrs. Jia's money to make up for it." A little bit, right? After all, she is a girl from Rongguo Mansion and will be your concubine. If they don’t pay you a favor, it won’t be justified.”
Ni Er’s words really made Feng Ziying laugh.
To be honest, he really couldn't give up on Yingchun. Not to mention that Yingchun was gentle, honest and lovable. She was indeed the most suitable candidate to be a concubine. Moreover, he was deeply in love with her, and he had promised that if it was just a matter of money, Hua No matter how much money he had, he had to take it, not to mention that Si Qi had already eaten the snacks before the meal. If he couldn't come to welcome the spring, how would the broken Si Qi see anyone?
"Forget it, for the sake of my second sister and Xiuyan, it seems I have to leave this time." Feng Ziying pondered for a moment, "But in your opinion, Xing Zhong owes such a large sum of money , if the interest is calculated according to their way of doing things, I’m afraid it might really be several times higher than the principal, right?”
Ni Er laughed and said, "Sir, you don't know something. Although the profit and loss here is scary and the rules are indeed very complicated, it depends on the situation. Xing Zhong doesn't just borrow but doesn't pay back. He originally He also brought some belongings from Suzhou, which he pawned and sold for most of the money. In addition, I heard that the eldest wife and another brother of his also lent him some money. Haha, it was all because of Miss Xiuyan. In terms of face, everyone knew that although Xingzhong was incapable of repaying the debt, Xiuyan girl was so talented that she could be married to a good family. There was no need to worry about no one coming to take over the debt, but she didn’t expect it to be an adult. you…"
Feng Ziying rubbed her chin, shook her head and smiled bitterly: "We can't talk about this now. Sister Xiuyan, hey,..."
"Sir, if you come forward, people outside will naturally not mess around. This is probably the purpose of the Jia family. If he takes over, the interest money you can get from two thousand taels may become four thousand Two, if people who don’t understand the rules here are counted by them, it’s really hard to say.”
Ni Er's words made Feng Ziying frown, "According to what you said, it's not appropriate for me to come forward."
"That depends on you." Ni Er carefully observed the change in Feng Ziying's expression, "You can go out and ask, but it won't make any difference. If you don't talk about it, or I can go out for you, you can wait outside. , let’s see what’s going on…”
Feng Ziying is very satisfied with Ni Er's thoughtfulness. In fact, it is hard to say that this kind of thing will hurt her reputation. These people in the gray and black fields are smarter and shrewder than anyone else, and they can figure out what to do if they ask.
"Let's go and ask at this address, and you can talk to me for me." Feng Ziying thought for a while, and then took into account the anxious Xing Xiuyan, "I won't show up, I will be nearby. If there is any problem, Just come to me directly."
“Okay.” Ni Er nodded repeatedly.
The agreed place is at the entrance of Yangfang Hutong, next to Li Guangqiao.
This area is densely covered with small alleys and belongs to the boundary of Faxiangfang, especially between Shihuer Hutong, Hongshan Temple and Liguang Bridge. Because the terrain is low-lying, many houses will collapse if there is waterlogging every year, and many of them will be unable to be repaired. There are many ruins and broken walls, and many refugees and bachelors hide here.
Feng Ziying and Xiuyan arrived nearby in a carriage, but Ni Er had already led people there.
"Don't worry, sister. Ni Er still has some respect here. If it's just for money, that's fine." Feng Ziying sat cross-legged in a graceful manner, while Xiuyan sat on the other side with some restraint. She was still the first The first time she was riding in a car with a man, the smell of Feng Ziying made her feel a little flustered.
