After this water corridor, there is a semicircular circle of dragons outside, the dragons rise layer by layer with the back hall, there are more than a dozen layers from front to back, there is a circular corridor on it, it is wide and strong, paved with stone slabs, and it is not a problem for people to step on horses. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 At a distance from the info wall, there are peepholes for observation and shots for firing sharp arrows.

Xu Jie stood in front of one of the peepholes and looked down. Shi Wen'er stepped forward and shouted respectfully: "Uncle." ”

Shi Wen'er, that is, Ye Qiguang's biological mother Shi Shi, is the side room of Ye Qiguang's father, Ye Jietuo. When Ye Jietuo was young, he traveled to Leizhou and met the young and beautiful daughter of the Shi family, Shi Qingqing. At that time, Ye Jietuo already had Mrs. Yu in the main room, and lived in distant Luoyang. Shi Qingqing did not listen to the dissuasion of her family and insisted on marrying Ye Jietuo as a concubine.

The Shi family is a gentry family, how can it tolerate a woman in the family having a concubine? There is no longer Shi Qingqing's name in the family tree of the Shi family, and the Shi family is also ashamed to mention Shi Qingqing. With the death of Shi Qingqing's parents and brother, everyone forgot the existence of this poor woman.

After Shi Qingqing married Ye Jietuo, she didn't see Aunt Weng, and life was not as beautiful as she imagined. Ye Jietuo not only had a wife, but also two concubines in addition to her, and she died early in remorse and longing for her relatives. After Shi Qingqing's death, Ye Qiguang was raised by his mother-in-law, Mrs. Yu. In the eyes of the Ye family, Shi Qingqing is a restless and jealous woman, and everyone, including Ye Jietuo, is reluctant to mention her.

With the death of the Ye family's elders, especially after Ye Jietuo's death, no matter in the household registration book of the government or in people's impressions, there is no such person as Shi Qingqing, Ye Qiguang is Mrs. Yu's biological son. Neither King Yun nor the Patrol Division connected Ye Qiguang with the Leizhou Shi family.

The current Xu Jie is Mrs. Yu's brother. Xu Jie saw Shi Wen'er coming over, gave up his position, and asked Shi Wen'er to look below.

This location can completely overlook the town, Shi Wen'er can see at this time that around the castle in the middle, there are eight courtyards in the innermost circle, and sixteen courtyards in the second circle, and so on, a total of four rows, the last row is sixty-four courtyards, which is actually an allusion to the sixty-four hexagrams of the I Ching. He asked, "Is the prince satisfied?" ”

Xu Jie said with a smile: "It is because the prince likes the Book of Changes that he built it like this, which also coincides with the "stars and the moon", you can say it no matter what." Besides, the prince's main interest is the exquisiteness of this place, he usually lives in Guozijian, this place is inconvenient to Luoyang, he is afraid that he will not come back to live often, so he is too lazy to care about how to build this castle. ”

Shi Wen'er nodded and said to Xu Jie, "Uncle has worked hard. ”

Xu Jie said: "I'm not working hard, these are all taken care of by Yongchang, I just need to watch from the sidelines." He glanced at Yixin and said to Shi Wen'er: "Chief, the work below is almost over, and the tunnel has reached Dagao Village." These are all Yongchang manipulating, thanks to this child. ”

Yongchang was standing aside to listen to their conversation, and when he heard Xu Jie praise himself, and he was dissatisfied with Yixin, he hurriedly and humbly said: "Where, Yongchang is a housekeeper, these are all things. ”

Yongchang said as he looked at Shi Wen'er in front of him with some surprise. He knew that the brothers Yixin and Jingxin were following the head of the Gumi Sect, but he didn't expect that they were such a handsome person.

Shi Wen'er agreed absentmindedly, the purpose of his and Yixin's trip was not to come to see the project in Jinsedi, but to be a lobbyist for Hu Lingjun. He secretly glanced at Xu Jie, felt that he was in a good mood now, and said hesitantly: "Uncle, there is another matter, that is, the marriage between Yixin and the girl of the Mu family...... In his heart, he doesn't value that girl, in my opinion, it's better for us to withdraw our relatives and let her go. ”

Xu Jie knew that Shi Wen'er was secretly checking his face now, pretending not to know, and looking at the swarthy Wanquan Mountain not far away coldly and solemnly.

Yixin shouted softly: "Daddy......"

Xu Jie turned his head, looked at Yixin, and said sternly, "What are you asking me to do?" Because of you, the Yu family can't hold their heads up and be a human being! ”

Yixin looked at him aggrievedly, the corners of his mouth twitched, he didn't say what he wanted to say after all, and he was about to run away with his head down.

"Interpret the heart!" Shi Wen'er hurriedly grabbed Yixin, and said to Xu Jie dissatisfied, "Uncle, what does this matter have to do with Yixin?" It was the Mu family girl who was at fault. ”

Shi Wen'er glanced at Xu Jie, who was full of anger, and knew that his uncle was a person with a bigger face than the sky, and said: "Uncle, Mr. Hu knows that his girl is at fault, and asks me to help him intercede for you, he really feels that he has no face to see you...... You see, old friends for many years, don't make a fuss about this little thing......"

Xu Jie's face showed indignation, and he said angrily: "Did you say this as a leader, or as yourself?" ”

Shi Wen'er knelt on the ground, Xu Jie was taken aback, and hurriedly wanted to reach out and grab him. Shi Wen'er pushed his hand away and said, "Uncle, my nephew's words are for our family's old novels." ”

Xu Jie's hand froze in mid-air, he looked at Shi Wen'er blankly, Shi Wen'er said: "I think that when Zhu Liang was in the past, our wood, jade, and leaf families were all in the same breath, assisting the lord, and they wanted to create a peaceful and prosperous world and build an immortal world." But in the end, because of some sesame trivial things, they were suspicious of each other, demolished each other, and finally the country was ruined. ”

Shi Wen'er said, unconsciously his eyes were moist, he raised his head, looked at Xu Jie, and continued: "Back then, the Mu family was almost wiped out, and Mr. Hu changed his surname and ran out of Luoyang with the troupe. She has been separated from Yixin, but she lives with her brother. Such a young girl, now suddenly re-mentioning her marriage to Yixin, she can't follow her fate and can't blame her. ”

Xu Jie let out a long sigh and said, "That's what you said." What about the Yu family and the Ye family? ”

Shi Wen'er said: "Uncle, you are the oldest elder of our three families, but you must push me as the leader back then." Now that I'm the leader, I can't watch my own people make trouble over this matter again. If the uncle is unhappy and resents the senior brother, then the nephew, as his junior brother, is willing to receive the uncle's punishment for him, so as to appease the uncle's thunderous anger. ”

Xu Jie wanted to pull Shi Wen'er up again, but Shi Wen'er stubbornly refused to get up, Xu Jie was at a loss and said, "What does this have to do with you?" What's the matter! ”

Shi Wen'er said excitedly: "Why don't you have anything to do with me?" In our current situation, we must work in one place, and we can no longer have a bad heart. Uncle is kind-hearted and fulfills them, whether it is the Mu family or the senior brother, they will be grateful for their uncle's magnanimity, and they don't have to be so embarrassed by their hearts all day long. After saying that, he fell to the ground.
