Chapter 308: Old Ghost Fanwai


Many years later, Jiang Nian, who has become an old ghost, will think of the time when he met Queen He in his own world countless times during the years he lived in A-Nian's body.

When will that be?

At that time, the old ghost was just a young man who went to the imperial capital to prepare for spring.

As he and Anian said, he stayed in the guest house specially prepared for the disciples in Xishan Temple.

There were six rooms in each guest house.

Three poor candidates like Jiang Nian were killed.

How did he recognize Queen He?

At that time, Queen He was not Queen He, and her name was not He Zijin.

At that time, her surname was Luo, with the single word Yuan.

Miss Luo Yuan came to the temple to give alms.

There were many poor people living in the temple, and these were the people to whom Miss Luo Yuan gave alms.

In the past, the meal consisted of cakes, pickles, and other dishes.

Because Miss Luo came to give alms, some fried fruits were added to the meal, which made the poor people in the family have a delicious meal.

And because Miss Luo was born with a pretty face, men are naturally curious about beautiful women.

Fu Juren, a fellow in the same courtyard as Jiang Nian, inquired with the young novice in the temple.

The young novice was obviously interested in Miss Luo.

Very understanding, the little novice monk said, "Donor Luo, that is truly a first-rate kindness.

Not only is she kind-hearted, I heard that she is also extremely capable."

Fu Juren was very interested even though he was married.

He quickly brought a fried fruit to the little novice monk and asked, "How do you say this?"

The young novice monk had not yet officially become a monk, but he still had some common sense.

He took a bite of the fruit and said, "The Luo family is a famous big businessman.

His family is in the flower and tree business.

I heard that many of the flowers and trees in the palace are from his family."

It's a business.

However, I heard that this was not the case before.

The Luo family was not from the imperial capital, but moved from other places.

It was thanks to this Miss Luo that his family was able to take care of it.

Miss Luo is good in everything, but her life is not good."

"How could such a good girl be so capable, have money at home, and be kind-hearted?"

Fu Juren asked.

"Hey, that's right.

This Miss Luo is not a biological child of the Luo family.

It's all about cause and effect."

The young novice also brought up some Buddhist matters and said, "I heard that the Luo family is a small landowner family. , the only son of his family, fell ill when he was young.

He saw many doctors and prescribed prescriptions, but nothing got better.

Finally he got it.

Xiang Men'er from my hometown said that it was an old man who took care of it.

If his illness got to this point, he had to find someone with a prosperous horoscope to take care of it.

Why didn't the Luo family just buy Miss Luo?

As the old saying goes, if the king of hell tells you to die at three o'clock, how can he keep you till five o'clock?

What's more.

Miss Luo bought the Luo family, but Master Luo didn't keep it, so it was just gone.

However, the old couple of the Luo family were kind-hearted, so they kept Miss Luo around, thinking that Miss Luo was also destined to his family.

Raised as a daughter, Miss Luo has been said to have been very smart since she was a child, and she also has a good temperament.

Excellent, but the Luo family has never had a son.

When Mr.

Luo and Mrs.

Luo got older, they adopted a nephew.

It’s hard to describe how good this step-master is in running business today. , but I heard that I spent thousands of money on drinking wine a few years ago and had Miss Luo beaten to the point of being unable to move."

Fu Juren lamented, "Is it possible that this girl will marry this adopted son of the Luo family?"

Another Fang Juren was a somewhat pedantic person and said, "This girl from the Luo family is too fierce.

She was originally a child bride, and the Luo family was very kind to her in raising her.

As for Young Master Luo, she is easy to persuade, so what?

Can I take action against my future husband?"

Fu Juren said, "Brother Fang's words are biased.

Such a useless person is not worthy of Miss Luo."

Jiang Nian said nothing.

The young novice monk obviously agreed more with Fu Juren's words and said, "Isn't it?

This Miss Luo needs talents and good looks.

She said that the Luo family originally only had three to five hundred acres of land.

How rich they are now, thanks to Luo."

The talent of a girl.”

Jiang Nian finally said, "It's just that she has been at Luo's house for a day, what will happen to the marriage?"

The little novice monk said, "Who knows?"

He clasped his hands together and murmured, "I just ask God to bless me and let Miss Luo be safe."

The second time Jiang Nian met Miss Luo was when she came to Xishan Temple to burn incense.

On Xishan Mountain there is the most famous Wanmei Palace in the imperial capital.

The plum blossom scene in winter is famous all over the world.

Wanmei Palace is a royal garden.

Jiang Nian naturally did not have the opportunity to go to Wanmei Palace to enjoy the scenery.

However, from the observation deck of Xishan Temple, he can see the beautiful plum grove outside Wanmei Palace.

Jiang Nian was at the observation deck and saw Miss Luo coming with a maid.

Jiang Nian quickly said hello and Miss Luo smiled, "You recognize me?"

I don’t know why, but the smile that fell in Jiang Nian’s eyes was as bright as the dawn of winter.

Jiang Nian’s ears felt a little hot and he said, “I am a resident of the temple.

A few days ago, the girl came to give alms.

I I once met the girl from a distance.

At that time, I saw that the girl was busy and I didn't thank her in person.

If I see her today, I must say thank you to her.

"As he said this, Jiang Nian bowed sternly.

Miss Luo is obviously a very knowledgeable person.

At least she is not shy or shy when she sees a strange man.

She returns the gift calmly and says with a smile, "It's nothing.

The imperial court gives out porridge every winter.

I It's just Dongshi It’s just a courtesy.

This Juren master is a learned man.

If you haven’t encountered any difficulties in your life, it’s not worth thanking you.

In the future, if you encounter someone in trouble, please help him.

A handful, that’s it.”

Jiang Nian listened to Miss Luo's voice, which was as beautiful as a jade plate, and then realized that he hadn't introduced himself yet.

Jiang Nian quickly said, "The student's surname is Jiang, and the name must be pronounced one by one."

Miss Luo smiled and said, "Jiang Juren."

Jiang Nian's ears were red and hot, and he tried to pretend to be free and easy, "Miss Luo."

Miss Luo came over to enjoy the scenery and didn't say much to Jiang Nian.

Jiang Nian felt that he should avoid suspicion or something.

After all, this was a girl's family, and he, he was a big boy.

However, by some mistake, Jiang Nian insisted on adding three layers of skin to his face, and then, shamelessly, he also enjoyed the view from the observation deck.

The third time the two met was on the Lantern Festival.

The Lantern Festival in the imperial capital is filled with excitement.

Jiang Nian and Fu Juren were invited by Hao Yushi, who had a close relationship with their adoptive father, to spend the Lantern Festival in the Imperial City together, and they could stay at Hao Yushi's house in the evening.

Hao Yushi was an enthusiastic person.

In fact, when Jiang Nian first came to the imperial capital, he wanted Jiang Nian to live in his house.

However, Jiang Nian still lived in Xishan Temple in the name of studying hard.

However, Hao Yushi invited him during the Shangyuan Festival, and Jiang Nian was not alone, so he went with Fu Juren.

Without even having dinner, the three of them went to Zhuque Street with their servants.

At that time, Zhuque Street was already lively, with many merchants setting up lanterns.

They went there specifically to eat glutinous rice balls at the night market.

There was no curfew during the Lantern Festival, and most of the people in the imperial capital came out to join in the fun.

The three men walked and walked, and Jiang Nian disappeared.

Hao Yushi and Fu Juren disappeared.

Jiang Nian was thinking that this was probably a natural fate.

Jiang Nian couldn't stand the crowds of people.

When he reached a quiet alley, he heard a vicious voice, "Luo Yuan, I tell you, I am determined to marry you."

When Jiang Nian heard the word "Luo Yuan", he immediately stopped and pricked up his ears.

Then came Miss Luo's voice.

Miss Luo said, "If I want to marry someone like you, I would rather become a monk and become a sister-in-law."

"I want to see if you will marry me."

Then there was the sound of beating.

Jiang Nian couldn't help it.

He also learned some tricks from his hometown Taoist priest, so he rushed out and beat him first.

He was unprepared, and then he captured the king first and knocked down the evil young man with one punch.

Then, taking advantage of the thieves to save the evil young man, he ran away as soon as he mentioned Miss Luo.

Miss Luo obviously had good physical strength.

When the two of them ran together, Jiang Nian didn't know where they went, because he lived in the temple and didn't really visit much of the Imperial City.

Miss Luo didn't accept his favor and said, "Why are you dragging me around?

Luo Jizu is just a idiot.

His servants get my money every month and don't dare to do anything to me."

Jiang Nian didn't know what to say for a moment, and stammered, "I, I, I was just worried for the moment."

Miss Luo invited him to eat glutinous rice balls.

Although Jiang Nian had eaten them before, he immediately became hungry again when Miss Luo invited him.

When asked what kind of filling he wanted, Jiang Nian said, "Sesame and white sugar."

Miss Luo smiled, "I like this stuffing too."

Jiang Nian felt that he and Miss Luo had the same liking, and was secretly happy.

The two began to eat glutinous rice balls.

Although the glutinous rice balls became more delicious when eating glutinous rice balls with Miss Luo, Jiang Nian was still worried about Miss Luo and said, "Aren't you worried?"

"What's the use of being worried?

It's a day to be worried, and it's a day not to worry.

Similarly, it's a day to be happy, and it's a day to be unhappy."

Miss Luo scooped up a glutinous rice dumpling, "I, as long as I live, I will be happy."

Jiang Nian looked at Miss Luo, her eyebrows were still relaxed, as if she had nothing to worry about.

Jiang Nian felt deep down that he had to adjust his attitude towards life.

Miss Luo is not only optimistic, she is not stupid, optimistic, poor and happy.

Miss Luo is optimistic because she is wise.

After eating glutinous rice balls, the two of them said they would go shopping.

Suddenly, they saw a man running over and bumped into an old man who was looking at the lanterns.

Jiang Nian was a scholar and was quite enthusiastic, so he shouted, "thief!"

Common tactics used by thieves include those who steal your things quietly, and those who accidentally bump into you and then take your wallet.

This is the second type.

Miss Luo already said, "Don't worry, it can't be stolen."

As soon as he finished speaking, a family member beside the old man kicked the thief out.

Someone went to deal with the thief who had not succeeded, but the old man looked at Miss Luo and said with a smile, "Young lady has good eyesight."

Miss Luo smiled, "These few around you are experts at first glance.

It's not that I have good eyesight, anyone with long eyes can see it."

Jiang Nian: It turns out he has no eyes.

The master looked at Jiang Nian approvingly and said, "This young master has a chivalrous heart."

Jiang Nian spontaneously made a humorous statement, "I just don't have eyesight."

After making the two of them laugh, Miss Luo said, "You are the one who doesn't see things carefully at all, so you didn't pay attention to the family members of this master.

It's all about hiding him in the middle, how can this gentleman suffer.

It's useless to have a chivalrous heart, he has to grow his brains. " Jiang Nian's self-esteem was really hurt.

But the old man became interested and started talking to them.

Jiang Nian thought it was a chance encounter, so he separated from Miss Luo that day and returned to Hao's house.

Hao Yushi even said with a smile, "A-Nian, if you don't come back, I'm going to report the case to the Imperial Capital."

From then on, it was many years before Jiang Nian saw Miss Luo again.

At that time, Miss Luo was no longer Miss Luo, but Queen He.

Spring was still far away, and Jiang Nian continued to study hard in the temple.

However, when he put down his books and had some free time, he would inadvertently think of Miss Luo.

That evil young man with a bad voice had also come to the temple a few times.

He didn't know how to find out, and came to look for Jiang Nian. trouble.

Xishan Temple is a famous temple in the imperial capital.

Moreover, the evil young man really couldn't defeat Jiang Nian, so he pointed at the young monk who came to break up the fight and scolded him, "The Luo family will never come to your Xishan Temple to give alms again."

As a monk from a famous temple, he was very confident.

The monk clasped his hands together and said the Buddha's name, "Almsgiver Luo, I have an invitation."

What the young master of the Luo family said is so unreasonable.

Xishan Temple is a famous temple in the imperial capital and has the famous monk Wenxiu.

Many aristocratic families strongly believe in Xishan Temple.

Even in the palace, there are always calls.

No matter how rich the Luo family is, it is nothing more than a merchant's family.

If his family doesn't come to donate alms, Xishan Temple may not take him seriously.

Because of this, Xishan Temple could stand on the side of justice when facing Mr.

Luo who came to provoke him, and did not hand Jiang Nian over just because he was poor, or expel him because he did not want to cause trouble.

Young Master Luo was invited out by Xishan Temple.

The young monk sighed, "Amitabha, with such a mind, disaster is not far away."

He turned around and told Jiang Nian, telling him to just study in peace.

Jiang Nian thanked him solemnly.

After Master Luo left, Jiang Nian was a little worried about whether Miss Luo would be bullied by this evil young man or something.

When I heard the news about Miss Luo again, it was the beginning of autumn.

There was a grand ceremony for the emperor's establishment in the imperial capital.

Jiang Nian, who studied hard, did not care much about these things, but Xishan Temple received a very generous reward, and even the food for Jiang Nian and others was greatly improved.

The lively little novice monk was also smiling these days, and said to them, "They say that our Xishan Temple has the most effective incense.

This is no worse.

Miss Luo is now the Queen."

This news was really shocking.

Jiang Nian was stunned for a moment.

Fu Juren was a little surprised and couldn't help but ask the little novice monk, "Where do you start talking?"

Fu Juren almost said, isn't Miss Luo a child bride?

He swallowed these words back and listened to the little novice monk's words.

The young novice monk didn't know much, so he just kept saying, "The rewards our temple has received are from the Queen."

Fang Juren said, "Miss Luo is from a business background, why?"

Scholars, farmers, industry and commerce were the lowest class.

The queen is so noble that even a small official like Fang Juren doesn't think it's appropriate to raise a daughter of a merchant.

The little novice monk said quickly, "That's not the case, then, didn't I say that Miss Luo was originally bought by the Luo family.

I think the queen has found her family.

I heard that the queen's surname was He."

Fang Juren nodded and said nothing more.

Fu Juren complimented the young novice and said that the incense in Xishan Temple was indeed very effective.

He made the young novice happy and said that there were a lot of fruits in the temple recently and he wanted to bring them more to eat.

Jiang Nian was the only one with a heart that felt indescribably empty.

He thought of the three encounters he had with Miss Luo.

Jiang Nian thought he was the male protagonist in Su Caizi's storybook, but suddenly he realized that he was just a passerby.

That's what happened.

Feel.

After finding nothing, Jiang Nian became even more angry.

However, his spring was very unlucky.

He and Fu Juren were slapped on the road, and they missed a class.

When they woke up, Hao Yushi comforted them very much, saying that with their talents and learning, they would just wait for the next semester.

He also asked them if they had any enemies.

They all came to the imperial capital to prepare for their spring wedding.

It was not enough to focus on studying, and there would be no enemies.

Fu Juren is a careful person, so when he thought of Master Luo, Jiang Nian was dumbfounded, "How big of a deal is that?"

Fu Juren was older and said, "You think it's not a big deal, but for people like that, it's a big deal."

Hao Yushi asked quickly, and Fu Juren told Hao Yushi about Master Luo's provocation in the temple a year ago.

How could Hao Yushi suffer a loss?

He quickly went to the housekeeper to investigate.

After finding out who this matter belongs to, I first grabbed the evidence and then read a book.

Fu Juren was still a little worried.

He said that the Luo family was the home of Empress He's adoptive parents.

Hao Yushi disagreed, "They are just adoptive parents, not biological parents.

They have no title and no official position.

To dare to attack a child to rush for the examination is really unreasonable."

"Borrowing courage" Later, this young master Luo was sentenced to twenty years of hard labor.

I heard that Queen He personally confessed that she should be sentenced as she should be, and the imperial capital was not allowed to show her affection.

In addition, Queen He also brought medicinal materials and money with her chamberlain to visit Jiang Nian and Fu Juren, and her words were very polite.

Jiang Nian became more and more disappointed, while Fu Juren looked flattered.

Now that they had money, they decided to continue studying hard in the imperial capital.

After the Spring Festival, there was news of His Majesty's southern tour.

However, in mid-June, His Majesty passed away.

The world observes filial piety.

Jiang Nian and Fu Juren both changed into plain robes.

They had no friendship with His Majesty, so it was okay not to joke around.

However, Fu Juren announced a piece of news in private.

Fu Juren whispered, "Your Majesty has passed away, and the new king has passed away.

After ascending to the throne, Enke will be born next year.

Dear brother, we are not without luck."

Jiang Nian nodded, but in his heart he felt sad for the Queen, who became a widow at such a young age.

Although marrying the late emperor is a thousand times better than marrying that evil young man, such a young man Jiang Nian's spring of the second year was extremely smooth.

He ranked first and was selected as the best.

A life of success and fame followed, and Jiang Nian also met a king who liked to be a matchmaker.

Emperor Zhaoming liked Jiang Nian and helped him keep a matchmaker and a long-lived princess.

Jiang Nian didn't know where he fell in the eyes of Princess Shou Yichang.

Later, Jiang Nian found out that he accidentally went to Xishan Temple and met a running doll.

Jiang Nian was an enthusiastic person and handed the doll to the anxious man who found him.

Wet nurse, this doll is the son of Princess Shou Yichang.

Jiang Nian didn't know much about Princess Shouyi.

He only knew that the princess's consort was careless during the mourning period of the late emperor and later became a monk.

Princess Shou Yichang can of course remarry.

With such a noble status as the eldest princess, Jiang Nian had no reason not to agree.

Princess Shou Yichang is a gentle woman.

She is several years older than Jiang Nian.

She is neither rigid nor pretentious.

On the first day of their marriage, she made it clear to Jiang Nian about her rules and what the consort should abide by. point.

Jiang Nian felt that this marriage was really difficult to explain in words.

However, Jiang Nian and the eldest princess's son Afeng were in love.

Every time Jiang Nian held Afeng in his arms and taught him how to speak and read, the eldest princess's expression was gentle.

However, Jiang Nian's background destined the gap between him and the eldest princess.

He could only see the luxury of the clothes and materials the eldest princess wore, but he couldn't tell where the luxury was.

He could tell that the treasures the eldest princess admired were expensive, but no matter how many there were, he wouldn't know.

Not to mention, everything about food, clothing, housing and transportation is different.

The gap in family background cannot be bridged in a short time.

Jiang Nian also slowly learned something about Queen He.

This Queen, no, she is now the Queen Mother.

In the words of Princess Shou Yichang, "She is extremely capable.

When my father was in Bianzhou, it was thanks to her that .

We also respected her.

We thought she was not sensible at the time, but later we realized that we had misunderstood her."

Jiang Niandao, "Where do you start talking about this?"

Princess Shou Yichang said, "My father met her somehow.

At that time, my father was already old, but he insisted on making her his queen.

Many people in the court could not persuade her, but he finally made her his queen.

The emperor's grandmother was very unhappy about this.

When the emperor visited the south of the Yangtze River, he wanted to take her with him.

When her mother refused, her father left alone.

When something happened in Bianzhou, it was thanks to her that she went to Bianzhou to rescue her father and came back.

Fortunately, it was not a holiday, so he left too early.

The emperor's brother and sister-in-law respect her, and even we are grateful for her contribution back then.

She is also very good now. " Princess Shou Yichang smiled and said, "I forgot that the Prince Consort and the Queen Mother have some connections."

Jiang Nian was a smart man and did not hide anything.

He said, "It was my first time in spring, and I was slapped by the young master of the Luo family, so I failed the exam."

Princess Shou Yichang became interested and said, "Does the consort have any grudge against that person from the Luo family?"

"It can't be said that there is any grudge, it's just a trivial matter in my opinion.

When I was staying at Xishan Temple, Miss Luo, oh, now I should say the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother went to Xishan Temple to give alms, and we poor people got some benefits.

I once saw her from afar.

Later, during the Lantern Festival, I met the Queen Mother who was being harassed.

I thought she had met a traitor, so I I helped the Queen Mother once.

Later I found out that the man was not a disciple, but a young master of the Luo family.

I really didn’t care about this little thing.

Mr.

Luo was quite vindictive.

That time even Brother Fu We were all tired, and he was knocked unconscious.

He couldn't catch up with the spring of that year.

We were all participating in the second year of Enke."

Jiang Nian explained the matter simply.

Jiang Nian thought he was magnanimous, but women's intuition was so incredibly sensitive.

Jiang Nian didn't know when Princess Shou Yichang noticed that they had no children, and they were just polite to each other in life, and there was no real relationship between husband and wife.

Jiang Nian actually felt faintly deep in his heart that the eldest princess didn't like him.

However, the eldest princess has the political status of the eldest princess.

Of course, the eldest princess Shouyi cares more about herself and her son.

This is understandable.

However, the eldest princess will not even let A Feng get close to Jiang Nian from now on.

This makes Jiang Nian a little regretful.

He is quite Like children.

Jiang Nian had no choice but to devote all his energy to his mission, and he received some praise from Emperor Zhaoming.

Jiang Nian eventually drifted away from the eldest princess, or they never tried to get closer to each other.

It took a long time for the old ghost to remember how he died.

It was during an autumn hunting.

With frightened horses and roaring tigers, Jiang Nian chased a yellow sheep and strayed into the hunting area of ​​Queen Mother He.

He didn't know that he had Did he save Queen Mother He?

But when he became conscious, he was already in A Nian's body.

This child named A-Nian is exactly the same as he was when he was a child.

However, he was raised in the Jiang family when he was a child.

Why did A-Nian end up in the He family?

Also, the He family's sister Zijin, who was full of energy all day long, soon discovered that he was not A Nian, and she tried her best to get A Nian back.

The old ghost discovered that he had recognized Shen Su as his adoptive father in both lives.

However, the difference between the two lives was that in the last life, he went to the Jiang family, while in this life, A Nian came to the He family.

He family.

The old ghost remembered hearing from the Jiang family about the He family in his previous life, saying that the He family had a daughter who was abducted by human traffickers for some unknown reason and never found her whereabouts, which was heartbreaking.

No matter how carefully the old ghost looked at Sister Qujin's appearance, he still couldn't tell whether she would look like that woman in the future.

Sadly, the old ghost thought that he and A-Nian were the same person, but obviously, he had his own consciousness, and A-Nian had A-Nian's consciousness.

That boy finally regained control of his body, and was still talking to He Zijin from time to time.

That girl said bad things about him.

For the first time, the old ghost felt that he was really annoying when he was a child in this life.

Especially, as sister Zijin grew up, she developed such delicate and familiar features.

Especially when Ah Nian was thinking about Sister Zijin so heartily.

The old ghost will not admit that there is a hint of jealousy in his heart.

Moreover, Sister Zijin in this life has no intention of entering the palace at all.

When the Zhao and Li families forced each other with power, Zijin's sister did not agree.

When they met the emperor again as fate would have it, Sister Zijin did not agree.

She was so loyal in guarding her marriage to A-Nian, even though the wealth was before her eyes, she did not move even a bit.

The old ghost couldn't help but wonder, if he had expressed his feelings to her earlier in his life, would she be like Sister Zijin and keep her vow with him.

However, there is no what if in life.

When Zi Jin's sister and A Nian got married, the old ghost suddenly recalled that at the moment he died, a voice asked him, what is your wish?

What did he say?

What he said was, if there is an afterlife, please Let me meet my beloved since childhood.

He really met the person he loved since childhood.

Unfortunately, he was not A Nian, and A Nian was not him.

How jealous the old ghost is of himself in this life, and how reluctant he is to leave.

So, he forcefully became the third party between A Nian and Zi Jin's sister for three years.

He also started to cause trouble for himself in this life.

A Nian was simply a model of perseverance.

He met his parents who had never met in that life again.

In fact, seeing or not seeing is worse than not seeing.

When he heard Anian say, "I will never be like my parents in my life."

The old ghost finally felt relieved.

Ah Nian was him, and he was Ah Nian.

Even if it was a different world, he could live in peace in a world where he could live with his childhood sweethearts like Sister Zijin.

Seeing Sister Zijin walking towards A-Nian with a smile, the old ghost finally left A-Nian and gave the girl in his heart a hug first.

You had a good life in your last life, but I think you must be happier in this life.

The old ghost turned into a gust of wind and drifted away.

The old ghost doesn't know where he will go.

His eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds and he could not open them even if he wanted to.

The severe pain in his body was indescribable.

Countless voices shouting "Jiang's Consort Jiang's Consort" came, but Jiang Nian fell into deep darkness. gd1806102:
