The case of General Feihong caused an uproar in the whole capital of Shuo. The soldiers who had benefited from General Feihong spontaneously went to the palace and petitioned the drums to ask for the truth. General Feihong had a good reputation among the sergeants and the truth came out, and the two families of He Xu were also guilty of anger.
Emperor Wen Xuan handed over the case to Dali Temple, and within a few days, He Yuanliang couldn't bear to force his confession and brought out the truth and disciples. The officers and soldiers also found a lot of evidence of He Rufei and Uto people in the He family. Through this case, the He family deceived the king, took advantage of the merits, passed the enemy and treason, and punished several crimes. Outside of the shadow of the heart, count the death penalty. The main criminal, He Rufei, was so guilty of crimes that he planned to be late in the afternoon and was escorted to the city. He was killed by a hundred and twenty knives.
As for the Xu family of Hanlin Bachelor, apart from Xu Zhiheng's death, all males were exiled, and female dependents were not slaves.
The case was resolved quickly, and when the result was known, the people all clapped their hands and accused him, accusing He Xu of the crime.
On the day before the death penalty, in the prison, Xu Zhiheng looked at the rancid food in front of him and refused to use chopsticks.
On the last meal on Huangquan Road, other death row prisoners had wine and vegetables, but he had nothing. It is because even the jailers felt that Xu Zhiheng was too cruel. There were many people who benefited from General Feihong back then, and even now General He is for the sake of death, there are many people who do not let Xu Hengheng feel better.
The jailer mocked him and said, "Why did Uncle Xu not eat? After today, I would not have to eat anymore. I persuade Uncle Xu not to pick and choose."
Hearing the words, Xu Zhiheng got excited, rushed to the prison door, grabbed the guardrail of the prison door, and looked at the jailer outside: "No... I will not die! I will give you money, and you will find someone for me and tell them to I rescued! I will give you money!"
"Okay," the jailer looked at him with a grin, "Who is Uncle Xu looking for?"
Who are you looking for?
Xu Zhiheng suddenly froze.
The He family has fallen down together. He Rufei can't help himself. His colleagues who had made good relations with his family in the past have long been able to avoid it, fearing that he might get into trouble. No one can save him.
Xu Zhiheng collapsed to the ground helplessly, and in despair, again gave birth to a great deal of unwillingness, murmured: "Why? Obviously not the person I killed...... Obviously I did nothing!"
"Did you really not do anything?" A voice sounded from the darkness, Xu Zhiheng suddenly raised his eyes, and saw that someone appeared slowly in front of him, his whole body closed under the black cloak. He was happy first, thinking that someone had come to save himself, but the next moment, the surprise turned into fear, because the man took off his cloaked hat and showed a face.
It is Wu An Hou He Yan.
Xu Zhiheng was taken aback and quickly backed up to the root of the wall, with a vigilant opening: "Don't come here... don't come here!"
The jailer had already left, and He Yan looked at the embarrassed man. Xu Zhiheng looked like she was afraid of her, staring at her like he was watching the evil ghosts crawling out of hell, full of horror.
He Yan has never seen such Xu Zhiheng. Whether it was 14 years old, she pulled her out of the snow and smiled to help her get back the burden of the Tsing Yi teenager, or after marrying him, uncle Xu who gently smiled at her and smiled at her, and the beard unshaven, A man like a startled bird is very different. Even if He Wanru led someone to drown himself, Xu Zhiheng did not show up from beginning to end.
She had seen Xu Zhiheng at the time of the scenery, Xu Zhiheng in the form of a man, but Xu Zhiheng, who was in prison, was like this.
He Yan was disappointed.
Just like a general, if he dies in the hands of his opponent, he will not regret it, but if he is very far away from himself... it is a pity.
"Don't be afraid." Her voice was soft and even a little smile. "I'm here, I have something to ask you."
The woman's eyes were bright, and there was no hate in her eyes, and that little smile seemed to confuse Xu Zhiheng. He still didn't move, staring at He Yan, hesitating for a long while before asking: "What do you want to ask?"
"You..." He Yan smiled. "When did you know that your wife, He Yan, was General Feihong?"
He Yan couldn't understand this matter all the time. When she married Xu Zhiheng, she thought that Xu Zhiheng knew nothing about herself, and made up a number of reasons for covering up the scars on her body. In order to distinguish himself from ordinary women, he made many excuses. It was not until the day of her death that He Wanru learned from his mouth that Xu Zhiheng had already known.
In those years, perhaps her hiding and hiding looked like a joke in Xu Zhiheng's eyes.
But when did he know? Was it after she married Xu's family, or before she married Xu's family, or earlier? But in that case, why did he marry himself?
Xu Zhiheng stared at her with a dizzy look, and there was a trace of vigilance in his eyes again: "Why are you asking this? Who the are you?"
"I am the one who can save you out." He Yan said softly.
Xu Zhiheng's eyes lit up: "Save me out?" He walked forward a few steps, as if afraid of He Yan, looking at her through the iron prison fence, and anxiously asked: "Can you really save me out?"
He Yan nodded with a smile.
He hesitated for a while and slowly said, "I already knew."
When did Xu Zhiheng know that He Yan was General Feihong, in fact, not long after General Feihong returned to Beijing. At that time, he was not a Hanlin bachelor. Although the Xu family was a scholarly student, the Hanlin bachelorship was not his age. Most of the Chinese ministers in Korea are now Xu Jingfu's disciples. Sometimes they climb up, but their talents are secondary. If there is no connection, sometimes they can't even make it in their lifetime.
He was known as a child prodigy when he was young, and he grew older. People held him too high, and he regarded himself as very high, just like a cage, unconsciously trapping himself.
The temporary encounter on the official career encountered resistance, which made Xu Zhiheng depressed. When Mrs. Xu saw him unhappy, thinking about his age, it was also time to find a family matter. Mrs. Xu was also a shrewd person. She picked it up and down, and she picked the cousin of Feihong, the young lady of the second house of Hejia, in the capital of Shuojing.
The second lady was in poor health when she was young, and was sent to Zhuangzi by her family early to recover from illness. Mrs. Xu's abacus is very good, and making a family with this royal upstart is beneficial to Xu Zhiheng's career.
But Xu Zhiheng at that time was actually not the best choice for the He family. After all, there are too many talents of the right age in Beijing Middle School, and Miss He Er is now Xiang Xiang Ye because of the relationship between Master He, and there are so many people who want to marry her back.
In the post under the He family, Mrs. Xu went with Xu Zhiheng. Said to be a guest is actually to see each other.
He went to the He's house for the first time at that time, and happened to be knocked over by Xiao Xiao's tea, so he went to the darkroom on the side to change his clothes. He didn't expect that someone would come in soon after he had just entered.
Xu Zhiheng is neither a forward nor a retreat. The two people who came in did not seem to notice that he was behind. Someone was speaking. It was a woman’s voice, clear and sweet: "Big Brother, Mother... What’s the aunt doing? Please bring these young masters home!"
"Isn't there so many sons you can count on?" The man's voice answered her.
Xu Zhiheng understood it almost immediately, and what he talked outside was probably Miss He Er and his elder brother He Rufei.
He should have stood up and apologized immediately, but the ghost messenger not only did not move, but also tried his best to hold his breath so as to teach himself to hide better.
Now think about it, the deep meaning of fate has already begun to slowly appear at that moment.
Xu Zhiheng heard a secret.
"Brother, you are so anxious to marry me out, is it because you are afraid that I will tell you to exchange my identities, and I am General Feihong?" The woman said, "I said it, I won't say it, I If it has been hidden for so many years, it will continue to hide."
"Not so." The man's voice carried a hint of impatience. "You are an ordinary woman at this age. It should be married. He Yan, you are just living the life you should have lived."
After the screen, Xu Zhiheng covered his mouth in horror.
What did he hear? What exchange of identities, what He Yan is General Feihong?
He pinched his arm fiercely, and the pain in his arm reminded him that it was not a dream.
Xu Zhiheng didn't even listen to the content of the quarrel between the siblings. Until the two left, Xu Zhiheng slowly stood up and looked at the closed door.
He was not stupid, and he was even quite clever. After a few words, he calculated the ins and outs of things. He was surprised with the boldness of the He family, He Yan's superior means, but more, but told him to find an opportunity. A fate gave him a gift.
So he sorted out his clothes and returned to the banquet table, looking at Miss He Er who was belated, showing a gentle smile.
Xu Zhiheng found He Rufei.
He Rufei looked at him with an unpredictable expression: "Uncle Xu wants to marry my sister?"
Xu Zhiheng laughed: "It is."
"This matter also needs to be discussed with the elders," He Rufei said: "I can't be the master, but also depends on the thoughts of the younger sister." Then he turned and left.
Xu Zhiheng's unhurried opening: "Lingmei is a heroine, not tolerant of men, and she is extremely impressed, but also looks forward to the beauty of General He."
"What did you say?" He Rufei looked at him violently, his murderous intention soaring.
"Before coming down to find General He, I wrote a letter and handed it to a friend. If something goes wrong, the secret letter will spread throughout Shuojing City." Xu Zhiheng said with a smile: "He also hopes that General He will be completed."
He is in the chest, he is bound to get.
In this way, Xu Zhiheng married He Yan as his wife. That is, shortly before he married He Yan, he became a Hanlin bachelor, as a "marriage gift" given by General He to his sister.
Seeking wealth and insurance, Xu Zhiheng certainly understands that the more secrets he knows, the faster he will die. But he didn't think that this kind of thing would happen to him, because he was a good person who would just accept it. In the end, he is a literary minister, not a military commander. He Rufei can help him, at most he is a Hanlin bachelor. He had to go his own way in the future. As for marrying He Yan... marrying General He's daughter has many benefits for him.
The He family should also be at ease. After all, it is better to marry Miss He Er to another person who might find a secret, and to marry him who has a request for the He family.
"So," He Yan looked at Xu Zhiheng in front of him, and slowly said: "You started to marry Miss He Er, just to use her?"
"Use?" Xu Zhiheng shook his head. "No... No use, even without me, she will marry someone... from beginning to end, it is not me who wants her life, I did nothing."
Xu Zhiheng could not remember He Yan's face.
Although he married He Yan in the beginning, he felt a little disgusted in the end. His etiquette and rules from elementary school made him look down upon He Yan, a deviant woman. He likes docile and charming women like He Wanru. Rather than He Yan...She was very careless, and although she tried her best to act as a boudoir, she always unconsciously revealed some untimely cramps. She would not be able to draw and paint, to give him a long face, and she would not learn to be gentle with Cheng Huan. She even had terrible scars on her skin. Sometimes when Xu Zhiheng looked at He Yan, she would think that she used to eat and sleep with other men in the barracks, which was simply unbearable.
Although he is willing to be a "good husband", more often than not, he can't control his scorn.
Fortunately, these days soon ended. The He family brought a bowl of medicine, and He Yan was blind after drinking it.
In fact, at that time, Xu Zhiheng was sitting in the next room, watching He Yan drink the bowl of medicine, there was a little sympathy. He family's move is ruthless. Moreover, how would a blind mistress bring him out to talk about him behind him?
Fortunately, He Yan is very good, not very noisy, even if she is blind, she doesn't cry so much, more often, she just sits in a daze in silence. Heard that He Yan had raised a dumb dog in the yard before getting married. Sometimes Xu Zhiheng felt that He Yan was actually very similar to the dumb yellow dog. No one cares, lives alive in silence.
If this is the case, it's okay. But she tried too hard, and even if she tried to be blind, the He family felt threatened, so she died in the hands of He Wanru, and died in Xu's pond.
"I didn't use He Yan," he tried to defend, "I'm protecting her... it's all He Rufei's fault, it's the He family's fault!"
He Yan stared at Xu Zhiheng and asked, "Apart from being at the He family, have you seen Miss He Er?"
Xu Zhiheng was stunned, shaking his head subconsciously: "No, no! The first time I saw Miss He Er, it was in He Fu."
He has forgotten.
This is expected.
He Yan found that she was very calm when facing Xu Zhiheng. Perhaps when she faced Xu Zhiheng, she always thought that she was facing a young man in Tsing Yi who met on a hunting ground in Shaoshi, but it turned out that maybe they were two people from the beginning. For Xu Zhiheng, "He Yan" is just an exchange based on interests. The important thing is this identity, not the name, not even the person. There is no difference as long as he can be a bachelor of Hanlin, He Yan or He Xinying.
A human life is nothing more than an official position.
She stood up slowly.
Looking at her movements, Xu Zhiheng finally ignored everything, grabbed the fence, and asked, "I have said everything I know. Can you save me now?"
His eyes were full of longing, just as he had hit the secrets of the He family, and wanted to use the secrets to add glory to the career.
He Yan bent slightly and looked at his eyes: "I lied to you."
Xu Zhiheng was shocked.
"I didn't do anything, I just lied to you." She bent her eyes. "You deceived me, it's fair."
After she finished speaking, she straightened up and left. From behind, Xu Zhiheng's angry shout came, and He Yan only had never heard it before.
She walked out step by step, as if stepping away from her past life. From now on, Wu An Hou He Yan, and Miss He Er of the He family, will no longer be involved.
The last question about the previous life was finally answered, but He Yan didn't feel much at the moment.
It's as if these people can't stand the waves in her heart.
It's just... empty of heart.
At the gate outside the prison, there was a man standing with his back to her, standing tall like a sword around his waist, looking sideways to see the snow piled under the eaves, showing a beautiful outline.
He Yan stood looking at this figure in the same place, unconsciously, her heart was slowly filled, as if she could not step on the nihility of the ground, and finally had a real sense at this moment. The traveler who could not find the way finally found a little light in the aimless search.
He Yan walked over and called him softly: "Xiao Jue."
He looked back, glanced at He Yan, and asked, "Did you finish?"
He Yan nodded.
Tomorrow is the day of execution. There is nothing to say between her and He Rufei, and the couple of He Yuansheng, but Xu Zhiheng still wants to find out when he discovered his identity. . So Yang Jue took her here and met Xu Zhiheng for the last time.
"What did you say for so long." Xiao Jue frowned.
"A long time?" He Yan Qi said: "How come I don't think it will be long. This is already very save..." At a glance, he saw Xiao Jue's complexion, He Yan shut his mouth timely, silent for a moment, she quietly ripped again Xiao Jue's sleeve: "Are you angry again?"
"What's there to talk about with that kind of person." Xiao Jue turned and walked forward, and He Yan chased up. "There's nothing to say, but I think about it, I think it's too cheap for him. So I It was said that I was Li Gui coming back to get revenge and scared him to death. Am I very powerful?" She casually fooled.
"Don't lie to people."
"I didn't lie to you, it's true. You should look at his expression that I was just scared..."
The girls were chattering around, and the gloom when they came out was gone. In his eyes, he slightly tilted the corner of his mouth, deliberately ignored her, and let her talk nonsense.
"Xiao Jue, your habit of getting angry all the time is not good, you have to change it."
"I'm not angry."
"You are not angry, you are just unhappy."
"..."
"Xiao Jue Xiao Jue!"
"What are you doing."
She grabbed the corner of his sleeve, "Nothing."
