Chapter 347: Old love and new love meet in a narrow road (1)

Overall, the houses in Daxing City are in a pattern of noble in the north and low in the south. The closer they are to the Taiji Palace in the imperial city, the more expensive the land price is. The land in several markets such as Yanshou, Guangde, Pingkang, Xuanyang, Taiping, Guanglu, Xingdao, and Wuben are all first-class and expensive, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a matter of gold and inch of land. And those who can live in these markets are all the most powerful officials and nobles in the court.

Pei Ju, the Minister of the Inner Historian of the Great Sui Dynasty, has been a close minister whom the emperor Yang Jian trusted and trusted since Yang Su was still in power. Since Yang Jian fell, his market in the court has been rising more and more. With his status, he is definitely qualified to occupy a place in this truly wealthy circle. Although Pei Ju is honest and never receives bribes from others except for the court's salary. However, Pei Ju is also a famous family in the world, and even if he wants to buy a luxury mansion in Daxing City, it is absolutely no problem. However, Pei Ju did not mingle with these dignitaries, but bought a small courtyard in the Datongfang area far away from the imperial city and the cheap land price.

The people living in Datongfang are all ordinary people. Don’t say that there are no dignitaries nearby, and even the rich businessmen who are a little rich don’t want to live here. However, for many years, Pei Ju has always been at ease with this and has no intention of moving to another place. Even if someone wants to curry favor with him and buy another mansion elsewhere to give him a gift, he politely declined. Emperor Yang Jian has always been simple, so he admires Pei Ju’s style very much and has praised him in public many times. But who can imagine that the biggest reason why Pei Ju did this is not to be honest and self-righteous, but to... her!

Pei Ju was not swaying when he traveled. He neither urged and urged the gong to open the way. After leaving Xijiyuan, he rode his yellow horse that had just turned two years old, whipped his whip, and urged the horse to get on. The horse was in his prime and his feet were very strong. Although he had never let go his hooves and galloped, his speed was still quite fast. About half an hour later, the wall of Datong Fangfang was in front of him. When he entered the wall, Pei Ju released the reins and let the horse run away. When pedestrians on both sides of the road saw this old neighbor passing by on a horse, they spoke to him casually, without any scruples and fear. Pei Ju also smiled and said that there was no prominent family in Hedong and the aura of high-ranking officials in the court, which made it difficult for him to find the style of an evil king in the Demon Sect who was talking and laughing and killing.

After a while, Huang Piao turned into Tianshui Hutong and stopped leisurely before Pei's house. Pei Ju turned over and got off the horse. When the old servant in the courtyard heard the sound of horse hooves, he immediately hurried out and opened the door to greet him. Pei Ju threw the reins to the old servant, stepped straight into the inner hall study, removed the outer clothes, and changed into a comfortable old clothes. However, he did not stop at home, but stepped down gently on the floor. With the sound of the machine, the bookshelf in the house moved two feet away, and a dark and authentic entrance appeared. Pei Ju's mouth hung a smile. He jumped down without thinking. His figure fell into the machine and the bookshelf moved back to its original position. On the surface, there was no trace, and the existence of the machine could hardly be found.

The length of this tunnel is only about ten feet long. Compared with the tunnel in Yang Gong’s treasure house, it is as straight as a small witch and cannot be compared at all. In the past, it has reached the end. Pei Ju quickly stepped onto the stone steps, waved his hand to open the wooden door at the exit, and smiled and said, "Xiuxin, I'm back for my husband." He walked out of the tunnel.

In addition to the authenticity, it is also a study room. Its layout is less reserved than that of the famous family, but more elegant than that of the female. The door of the study room has not been closed. Looking out, I saw that it is also a small courtyard. If you look down from a high altitude, it is not difficult to find that this courtyard and the Pei house are just opposite each other. Although it is only separated by a wall, it faces the streets on both sides of the north and south. Outsiders do not know the mystery and will never expect that the two courtyards are actually connected.

Pei Ju's words fell, and the door opened with a light sound. A beautiful young woman with picturesque eyebrows and a temperament of elegance, led the door in with a maid of fourteen or five years old. Her abdomen was bulging, and she was obviously pregnant, but she was about to be on the verge of a trance. But when she walked, her steps were still very light. If Fan Qinghui saw him here, she would definitely be surprised. It was just because this young woman was Bi Xiuxin, the head of Cihang Jingzhai. She disappeared from the world a few years ago, and no one could know her whereabouts. Even Fan Qinghui only knew that her senior sister was "sacrificing herself for the demons" and sacrificed herself to influence the number one master of the Demon Sect.

In essence, the so-called "sacrifice for the demons" is just an excuse that Cihang Jingzhai found for himself. In fact, Shi Zhixuan and Bi Xiu were in love with each other, and there was no matter who wanted to guide and influence whoever. When they first fell in love, they built a love nest in the "Secret Forest and Small Valley" in Shu. They met day and night, and were inseparable from each other. But Shi Zhixuan's other identity is Pei Ju, and he would never leave the court for a long time and live in seclusion.

It was Shi Zhixuan who brought Bi Xiuxin back to Daxing through several secret relationships. He bought the courtyard on the back of the mansion he lived in through several secret relationships, and then secretly dug the tunnels to open up the two courtyards. Shi Zhixuan retreated to the court every day, and was always here to eat and stay. If a guest came to visit Pei Ju, the old servant who stayed at Pei's house would immediately send a signal. Shi Zhixuan had to rush back from the tunnels to greet the guests immediately, but it was just a blink of an eye.

Pei Ju's identity actually has a wife with a Yuanmao. However, it was just a political marriage between aristocratic families to consolidate their relationship. Shi Zhixuan had no feelings for Pei Ju's wife. Many years ago, he even gave the woman back to Wenxi County, Hedong. Only a few loyal servants were left by his side to take care of his daily life. After bringing Bi Xiuxin back to Daxing, he added several maids and maids, but he did not know Shi Zhixuan's true identity.

With Bi Xiuxin's peerless light, no matter where she goes, it is enough to attract attention and become the focus of the crowd. However, the Demon Sect has a method of confusion and Jingzhai also has similar ways, but it can do the opposite, so that she and the light can be combined with each other. Ordinary people will be infected without realizing the difference. Therefore, Bi Xiuxin has lived here for several years, and has always lived in harmony with neighbors and is in peace. However, her childbirth period is coming soon and she has rarely gone out. At this moment, seeing Shi Zhixuan return, Bi Xiuxin smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work. There is a millet porridge cooked in the kitchen, so do you want to drink some?"

Shi Zhixuan frowned and said, "Xiuxin, you are about to come to the plate. Don't do these heavy tasks anymore. Otherwise, what's the best thing if you have a fetal aura?"

Bi Xiu said sweetly: "It's just cooking rice and cooking porridge, what's the rough job? Shi Lang is too cumbersome." While speaking, he made a gesture to the maid beside him. The maid understood and went out to ask the maid to start dinner. Then he put a plate of hot water and brought it into the room with a clean towel. Shi Zhixuan washed away the disguise on his face, and returned to the true appearance of the young scholar who was still in his early thirties and was just in his early thirties. He carefully supported his wife into the dining room and sat down. The wooden table was already full of dishes.

In addition to a pot of fragrant golden millet porridge, there were also several dishes of home-cooked side dishes such as sauce-sauceed eggplant, pickled cucumbers, sour cabbage, etc., but they were all made by Bi Xiuxin. Shi Zhixuan took a deep breath, and felt his appetite was rising. He drank three bowls of porridge in succession with the side dishes, and then put down his chopsticks. He sighed: "Wow~~ I finally got relieved."

Seeing his childish look, Bi Xiuxin couldn't help but cover her mouth and laughed out loud, saying, "Why is that so? You are the one who doesn't want hungry soldiers. The court sent Ye Lang to do things. Do you care about food?"

Shi Zhixuan shook his head and said, "Of course I can't do this. But how can I get Xiuxin's skills in food outside? After trying the rice that Xiuxin cooks for me, even if the imperial kitchen cooks the dragon liver wind marrow, it tastes like chewing wax in my mouth. I had no choice but to be hungry first."

Bi Xiuxin poked out her spring onion-like jade fingers, and pointed it on her husband's forehead, and said angrily: "I'm so slick, I'm not serious." Then she was stunned and asked nervously: "Shilang, are you injured? What's going on?"

"It's just a small matter, it's not the problem." Shi Zhixuan said lightly: "However, Xiuxin, you must be careful during this period. Otherwise, if the city gate is fired and the pond fish will suffer, it would be really unfair. Alas, it's a pity that you are not convenient to move now, otherwise, the safest thing to go back to "Little Valley of the Land" is actually the safest." He said in a concise manner that he had discovered Yang Gong's treasure house yesterday and the bloody battle in the imperial city. Bi Xiuxin sighed: "The Tao has eliminated demons and demons are rampant. We Buddhists should have held a sword to defend the way, but it's a pity... Alas~ Now it seems that the safety of the country and the lives and death of the people can only be entrusted to Mahaye and the disciple of the King of Henan. I don't know where Junior Sister Fan is now, otherwise, I should notify her to come and assist the King of Henan no matter what."

"Junior Sister Fan. I know a little bit about her whereabouts." Shi Zhixuan looked like a smile, sighing and admiring, and said, "Actually, even if Xiuxin, you don't inform her, and calculate the day, Junior Sister Fan should almost arrive in Daxing at this time."

At the night banquet of the Winter Solstice Festival, Yang Zhao refused to ask Mrs. Tang for a granddaughter in public in Luoyang, but insisted on marrying Fan Qinghui and Zhu Meixian. The matter of Zhu Meixian has been circulating in the court. When civil and military officials talked privately, they were all amazed. All these peach rumors have always spread the fastest, so that many people in the civil and civilians also knew it through various channels. However, Cihang Jingzhai and Yingui Sect were originally secret organizations, and even a very small number of people in the world knew it.

Their existence. How could ordinary people know Fan Qinghui? Who is Zhu Meixian? The things Shi Zhixuan and his wife talked about have rarely involved people in the court. In order to raise their babies, Bi Xiuxin has not left the house for two or three months, so she has never heard of it. At this moment, hearing that Fan Qinghui is about to come to Daxing, Bi Xiuxin is three points of joy, three points of surprise, three points of shyness, and a sudden at a loss. He said strangely: "Shilang, how do you know?"

Shi Zhixuan shook his head and briefly said what he knew. Of course, he only knew a little bit of a superficial one. But hearing that the King of Henan could at the same time, the descendants of the two sects of Demon were willing to let go of their past grudges and serve one man together, which made Bi Xiuxin very shocked. After hearing this, the senior sister of Cihang Jingzhai sighed even more: "My sister Qinghui seems quite easy-going on the surface, but is actually very stubborn. She also took great attention to Taoism and the essay because of her early years of learning. Now she can let go and see through it, and she must have suffered a lot. But now she has finally finished her hardships and has achieved her true results. But..."

Bi Xiuxin paused and shook her head dissatisfiedly, "Listen to what Shi Lang, you said, this little prince is a romantic seed. Junior sister Qinghui chose him as a good man, but she is afraid that she will be in this life... Alas~~" After speaking, she was so beautiful that she could roar to Shi Zhixuan: "Shi Lang, you are not allowed to hang out with this little prince except for business in the future. Otherwise, hum~"

Shi Zhixuan was so angry that his beloved wife looked like a little angry and furious. He couldn't help but feel excited. He hugged Bi Xiuxin in his arms, kissed her red lips, and smiled and said, "She has three thousand soft water, I only take a drink. Since Shi Zhixuan has Xiuxin, all the other women he has seen in the past have become like dirt. In this life, how can he look at other women? Xiuxin can rest assured." Suddenly, he quickly took out the pair of gold and silver daggers he had just obtained from Yang Gong's treasure house from his arms, and said, "Xiuxin, please put away the pair of flying swords in the face of the wings. When our children grow up in the future, they can use it."

The double flying swords with wings are very good. The blade is crystal clear and shiny, with iron as sharp as mud, and the gold and silver sheaths are inlaid with many precious gems. No matter what kind of women, they are always very irresistible to such shining things. Bi Xiuxin took the game and seemed very happy and asked, "Shilang, where did this pair of daggers come from? If it weren't too short, just in terms of quality, it wouldn't be under the flying wings passed down by our ancestor Jingzhai, and the two swords of color and hollow."

Shi Zhixuan smiled and said, "At this time, the treasures in Yang Su's treasure house. The King of Henan made a favor, saying it was a gift for our children." He took the dagger casually, pulled the blade out of the sheath, and said, "Since it is for our children, it is best to engrave the name first. I don't know whether the fetus is a man or a woman. If it is a girl, name her "Qingxuan". If it is a boy, name it "Yongjun". What do you think?"

Bi Xiuxin recited the names "Qingxuan" and "Yongjun" several times, and suddenly frowned and asked, "Shilang, is the child born? Is the surname Shi or Pei?"

Shi Zhixuan said without thinking: "If it's a girl, then the surname is Shi. If it's a boy, then the surname Pei will always be able to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors."

Bi Xiuxin shook her head and said, "The name Shi Qingxuan is not bad, but Pei Yongjun's words seem to be not very good. When pronounced, it always makes people think that it is the name of a dandy boy with a greasy and white face who specializes in cheating girls. It also seems that he has no meat to eat, and he can only live a miserable life with cabbage and radish. This is a big unlucky. Shi Lang, let's change his name."

Shi Zhixuan laughed and said, "Since he is a playboy, how could he live a hard life without meat in his life? Xiuxin's statement is too bizarre."
