Yan Capital has never lacked a topic for public discussion in recent years, but in the past, people only dared to talk about the royal family in private, but now it is this prince and that prince.
Especially after the accident of the left Prime Minister's Mansion, people could hear people talking about the left Prime Minister's Mansion on the street. Now that Zhengyang House was burned by a fire, it was more to talk about for the people.
The shopkeeper of Zhengyang House knelt in front of the building and wailed. The shopkeepers on both sides of the building didn't have time to persuade him. They were busy preventing their own shops from being burned.
Zhengyang House's men held the shopkeeper's hand to prevent him from rushing into the sea of fire, but it was impossible to say a word. The survivors of the disaster had heard the cries of their companions before the restaurant was burned to death, but they could do nothing but run for their own lives, and could not save people at all.
Everyone in the neighborhood would come to see the scene, and many of the competitors would gloat. Some of the guests who stayed or ate in the restaurant could not escape and ascended to the sky. The family members cried in front of the restaurant. Dali Temple officials and soldiers also came to the scene to deal with the matter, but the restaurant could not enter the scene and the officials and the public could not identify the suspect, the only thing they could do was to stop the family members from rushing in to die.
Ji Xun had already heard from the secret guard about Zhengyang House before the little eunuch came back and did not give any instructions.
Ji Xun did not believe that Yuan Zijing and the others were completely unaware of the fact that they wanted to kill Su Mianyue at the Zhengyang building. The woman who dared to harm him should pay the price of death. As for those innocent people who died wrongly, Ji Xun could not do anything. If they wanted revenge, let them go to find a bad relationship.
Junn Buhui, who was also not concerned about the Zhengyang building, was sitting in the hall with Jun Mingzhu in his arms and looking at the tearful General Si without saying a word. He refused to let the real grandfather hold the child for a while, afraid that Jun Mingzhu would be forcibly taken away.
"It's all my fault. I shouldn't have..." General Si stopped before he could finish his sentence. Could he say something that he shouldn't have let Si Yihuan follow the young master and lose his face?
General Si was seriously injured when he ran away with his children, and because the poison had eaten into his internal organs, his body was no longer as strong as it used to be. He could not lead a soldier to fight, and now he could hardly walk for a long time. The eldest son of the three children was almost a cripple because of Yun Wansheng's torture. After a few years of marriage with Su Yingxue, he still had no children. The second son worked for Ji Xun for many years but had no contact with his family. His life and death were unknown. His little daughter died miserably. General Si wanted to take Jun Mingzhu back to his knees and raise him.
It was just that after being a wet father for so long, Junn Buhui thought Jun Mingzhu was more important than his life, so how could he be willing to hand over the baby?
Looking at General Si's tears, Junn Buhui couldn't help but be moved, but it was definitely for Si Yihuan's sake, but it wasn't enough to make him break up.
"General Si, Mingzhu is my Junn Buhui's daughter. Her surname is jun all her life. If General Si takes her back to the si fu to make sure that she is safe, what will General Si say about her identity when Mingzhu grows up? Will she know that she is a courtier, or do you want to tell her that my father doesn't want her?" Junn Buhui thought for a moment, because Jun Mingzhu could not be the enemy of general si, so the words were not as irritating as usual.
General Si was speechless. Both of these words were too cruel for Jun Mingzhu, but looking at his soft grandson, General Si still said, "The old lady didn't stop you from visiting Mingzhu, but young master jun is still young. Sooner or later, he will get married and have children. What will Mingzhu do then? At least I can love her with all my heart by my grandfather's side."
"If you can't protect her, what's the point of loving her more?" Junn Buhui explained the truth again without mercy. Seeing general si's face full of pain, he couldn't bear to say, "General Si means what I mean. As long as General Si wants to see Mingzhu, the door of the palace is always open for general si, but it is absolutely impossible to take the child away."
General Si was silent for a long time before he looked up to see Junn Buhui. This young man could be called a devil. Even in this world, few women could have such a beautiful face. Is it really okay for such a man to raise his granddaughter?
Whether he had doubts or not, knowing that it was impossible to take Jun Mingzhu away now, General Si did not think of taking him away forcefully. He lost because of the force alone. Besides, Junn Buhui was Ji Xun's right-hand man, and General Si's loyalty to the monarch did not allow him to make a big fuss in his mansion.
"Where did Yihuan die? I want to see this wretched daughter." General Si said in a hoarse voice.
Junn Buhui stood up and said, "I'll escort General Si over. Yihuan should miss Mingzhu too."
Seeing that jun did not regret looking at Jun Mingzhu's indulgent expression, General Si subconsciously asked, "Is it really worth it for young master jun to delay his marriage for a child without blood ties?"
"Marriage?" Junn Buhui raised an eyebrow. Could he say that he never thought of getting married?
"A man's promise is worth a thousand gold. I have sworn to take care of Mingzhu for the rest of my life, and I will not break my promise. Even if there is a wife in the future, if she can't treat Mingzhu as a poisonous woman, what use will such a woman come to?"
Junn Buhui was loud and powerful, and General Si could not say anything more. Maybe Junn Buhui would change his mind in two years. It would be no difference if he brought Mingzhu home to raise him.
Because Junn Buhui refused to give the child to general si, General Si could only follow him and look at his sleeping granddaughter, but he could not remember how he loved his daughter when she was a baby. He only remembered that Si Yihuan was very clingy when he was young, but also had the iron bones of the si family. Surely he would not regret his decision to go undercover until he died?
Not to mention Junn Buhui taking General Si to worship Si Yihuan, Su Mianyue listened to the scriptures in Guangji Temple for two days and almost killed him. In the end, he could only find a way to escape. He spent a hundred thousand taels of silver to set up two nameless Changsheng tablets, one for Shangguan Pei and the other for Changsheng.
"How can you live without a name?" Su Mianyue looked at the tablet, lost in thought, the man in green came forward to speak, twisting three columns of fragrance lit and inserted in the incense burner.
"I don't know their names, but they're the ones who saved my life." Su Mianyue said half-truthfully. If they hadn't given up their lives to save her, perhaps she would have turned into a handful of dust.
Looking sideways at Su Mianyue, who was rarely a bit serious, the man in green asked, "Since you were born with a golden spoon in your mouth, did anyone dare to lay a black hand on you?"
"Hehe." Su Mianyue touched his nose and smiled awkwardly. "Young and frivolous, quarreling with someone over an unknown woman, and ended up being kidnapped by a black hand on the way back to the mansion. I hid in the carriage of the two of them when I ran away. Fortunately, they were kind enough not to give me away. But I cut them off before that mortal enemy could kill them, but I didn't dare to tell my father about it when I got home, so I didn't know their names all these years, so I can only do this little thing to reassure myself."
Without asking the man in green, Su Mianyue made up a story in one breath. Even if the man in green was suspicious, he had to check it for a while. Seeing his thoughtful expression, Su Mianyue changed the subject with a friendly gesture, "It makes me feel much better. Why are you here? Are you here to pay respects to your relatives and friends?"
