After Doctor Jiang's group left, Aunty Liu, her daughter, and Maqiao returned to the room. They couldn't help but anxiously inquire about Yang Fan's condition. Yang Fan answered them carelessly. They helped him clean up the room and prepared breakfast for the next morning. Only then did they all leave.
In the past, other people could leave, but with Maqiao's temperament, he would always stay and chat with Yang Fan for a while. However, today, Maqiao also left very straightforwardly. He said that his mother had researched a new money-making gadget and wanted to go home to help.
Yang Fan had something on his mind, so he didn't notice Maqiao's abnormal behavior and the strange look in his eyes. After they left, Yang Fan calmed down and thought about the purpose of Cai Yun and Doctor Jiang's visit. Yang Fan didn't really believe the reason they gave him. Their diagnosis process was even more unimaginable.
That unruly Doctor Jiang didn't seem to care too much about his injuries. Of course, this could also be attributed to his excellent medical skills. These injuries really didn't matter to him. However, he actually cared about whether his eyebrows and hair could grow back as soon as possible. Especially with the absurd reason of fire poison, he forcefully examined his lower body …
At first, Yang Fan even suspected that these uninvited guests were sent by Tin Aino. That mysterious woman had left a deep impression on him. Her seemingly omnipotent image was deeply engraved in Yang Fan's heart. However, because of this Doctor Jiang's strange behavior, he gave up on this idea. How could a young girl like Tin Aino incite Doctor Jiang to do such an absurd thing?
There were no clues to the origin of this matter. Naturally, Yang Fan couldn't figure it out no matter how much he thought about it. He simply tossed this matter aside. These were only small matters. As long as he could confirm that the other party had no evil intentions towards him, there would be a day when the truth would be revealed. There was no need to deliberately investigate. What he needed to consider now was the problem of the murderer of the village massacre.
Before he died, Yang Mingsheng uttered two names: Qiu Shenji and Miao Shenke.
He had spent nearly a year in Luoyang, and now he had finally taken an important step towards the truth. He believed that even if Qiu Shenji and Miao Shenke were not the real culprits, they were not far from it.
He had heard of the name Qiu Shenji. There were many legends about the father and son of the Qiu family.
Qiu Shenji was the son of Qiu Xinggong, the founding minister of the Tang dynasty. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Qiu Xinggong gathered his troops and joined Emperor Li Shimin. During the battle with Wang Shichong, Li Shimin's mount, Feng Lu Zi, was struck by an arrow. Qiu Xinggong gave up his mount to Li Shimin and led the way with his saber. Since then, he became Li Shimin's most trusted general.
In the 17th year of Zhenguan, the governor of Daizhou, Liu Lancheng, was accused of treason and sentenced to death. Qiu Xinggong was in charge of supervising the execution. Unexpectedly, on a whim, he dug out Liu Lancheng's heart and liver and cooked it to go with wine, which shocked the world. For this, Li Shimin reprimanded him. Since then, they had been estranged.
Qiu Xinggong had four sons: Qiu Shenzhi, Qiu Shenji, Qiu Shenfu and Qiu Shending. Among them, the second son, Qiu Shenji, was the most like his father. Among Qiu Xinggong's four sons, he was the only one who inherited his father's kung fu. Today, he still held a military position and was the General of the Left Guard of Golden Insignia.
Qiu Shenji was braver and crueler than his father. When he was the General of the Left Guard of Golden Insignia, he was ordered to go to Bazhou to monitor the dethroned Crown Prince Li Xian. When Qiu Shenji arrived at Bazhou, he immediately forced the dethroned Crown Prince Li Xian to commit suicide. When he returned to the capital, he said that he misunderstood the Empress Dowager's order.
Hundreds of officials were in an uproar and impeached him one after another. Empress Wu saw that she could not offend the public, so she demoted him to Dizhou. But not long after, she restored him to his position. Only then did people realize that the so-called Qiu Shenji forced the Crown Prince to commit suicide was actually Empress Wu's order. People often said that even a vicious tiger would not eat its cubs. Empress Wu was even willing to kill her own son, who was under house arrest. It was really rare.
Last year, Li Tang, the Prince of Yue, Li Zhen, Li Chong, and the others rebelled against Empress Wu. Qiu Shenji was ordered to suppress the rebellion. When he arrived with his troops, Li Chong was already dead. There was no more rebellion to suppress. The officials of Bozhou came out to welcome him in plain clothes and surrendered to the imperial court. Qiu Shenji then ordered all the officials who begged to surrender to be killed and their families destroyed. The victims were more than a thousand families.
Therefore, even though Qiu Shenji was a military general, he was ranked as the head of the four ruthless officials with Zhou Xing, Lai Junchen, Suo Yuanli, and the others. His reputation was well-known in the capital. It was very normal for such a person to say that he had massacred an entire village. However, Yang Fan could not confirm whether what Yang Mingsheng said before his death was true or not.
Also, that Miao Shenke, who was he?
When Yang Mingsheng said those two names in despair, Miao Shenke's name was in front of Qiu Shenji's. At that time, life and death were at stake, a person would not have time to think, so the words he said would be the most direct. At this time, the first person he called out must be someone who was more important than the next person in his mind.
A person who was more important than Qiu Shenji, but he had never heard of him. Who could this person be?
Yang Fan gently stroked his injured shoulder and thought to himself, "Looks like I have to find out more about this person's identity. Everything will have to wait until I recover. "
Just as Yang Fan was thinking, there was a sudden knock on the door. Someone asked, "Is Beta Persei in the room?"
Yang Fan heard the voice and it seemed to be Su Fangzheng's voice. He could not help but be surprised. What was he doing here so late at night?
Yang Fan sat up and raised his voice, "Is it Su Fangzheng? Please come in. "
The door creaked and Su Fangzheng walked in. He turned into the room and saw that Yang Fan was about to sit up. He quickly stepped forward and said, "Hey, you are injured. Don't move. Lie down, lie down. This old man is just here to see you."
Su Fangzheng sat on the edge of the bed and inquired about his injury. He then took out a few strings of money from his pocket and said to Yang Fan, "Beta Persei, you were injured while working for the workshop. The workshop naturally cannot turn a blind eye to your injury. Don't let people talk behind my back and say that I, Su, am not honest. This money was pooled together by the neighbors. This old man also took some for himself. Take it to recuperate and buy some food to nourish your body. You don't have to worry about the workshop. This old man has already found someone to take your place. "
Yang Fan said, "Many thanks, Bōshō. My injury will recover in a month or so. At that time, I can work for the workshop again. These days, it really is not suitable for me to work. I can only trouble Bōshō to arrange someone else."
Su Fangzheng laughed and said, "No, no, no. When your injury is healed, you can no longer work for the workshop. This small temple of ours, hahaha … "
Yang Fan's expression changed slightly. He said, "Is Bōshō going to quit my job?"
Su Fangzheng hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Hey, you must not misunderstand. Am I that kind of person? Don't worry. As long as you are willing to work as a workshop attendant, you can naturally come back at any time. This old man welcomes you. It's just that … "
Su Fangzheng gave him a meaningful look and said with a beaming smile, "You, ah. Out of the depths of misfortune comes bliss. You've hooked up with a noble person. I'm afraid you won't do this kind of job anymore."
Yang Fan's heart skipped a beat. He suddenly remembered the sudden appearance of Miss Cai Yun and that Doctor Jiang in the afternoon. He hurriedly said, "Su Fangzheng, what do you mean by that? When did I hook up with a noble person? Why didn't I know?"
Su Fangzheng laughed and said, "There are some things that you will naturally understand in the future. This old man can't say too much now. In short, although you've only been in our Xiu wen workshop for a short time, we've lived together as neighbors. Everyone is very harmonious, like a family. No matter how prosperous you become in the future, don't forget about us. Haha! "
As Su Fangzheng said this, he stood up and said, "Alright, I won't stay any longer. You can rest. If there's anything that's inconvenient, tell me at any time. This old man will help you arrange it."
Su Fangzheng finished speaking and left with a beaming smile. He left Yang Fan alone and was even more puzzled. "Noble person? When have I come into contact with any noble person? Why would Su Fangzheng care so much for me? "
As Yang Fan thought about it, he unconsciously thought of Tin Aino.
Originally, because of Doctor Jiang's strange actions, he had already rejected this idea. However, he had interacted with him before and was able to invite Doctor Jiang, who was greedy for money, to pay a visit. It seemed that only this mysterious and powerful woman could do it. As for Doctor Jiang inspecting his body …
Yang Fan suddenly thought of how the commoner women of the Western Region would choose a husband for a trial marriage. And when the rich women chose a husband, they would first send a female slave to sleep with the man they liked. This was to confirm that the man did not have any hidden illnesses before they were married. Could it be that Tin Aino wanted to …
Thinking of this, Yang Fan's heart thumped and he unconsciously became restless. During the time he spent with Tin Aino, although he always pretended to be ignorant, it was undoubtedly a very interesting and memorable life. That little girl, whose identity was a mystery and who could do anything, had already stealthily entered his heart.
At this time, Yang Fan naturally did not have any plans to start a family. The most important thing was to find his enemy and take revenge, and then find his younger sister, Niuniu. As for the rest, he was still young and could take it one step at a time. Even if he had the conditions, he would not let his family tie him down.
But suddenly thinking that there was a very beautiful, very cute girl who was willing to give herself to him, that kind of feeling was indescribably … comfortable. Just as Yang Fan was feeling comfortable, there was another knock on the door. A soft voice said, "Erlang is at home, this servant has come to enter the room."
"Miss Xiaodong?"
Yang Fan was shocked. He quickly crawled back under the covers and closed his eyes, turning into a dying, unconscious appearance.
