Yun Qingxian began to speak.
Yun Qingxian grew up in Guishan County, and lived with his mother since childhood.
His mother was from Ximin Country, and because of persecution at home, she ran to Guishan County with her family. And because he was afraid of being found by his enemies, he concealed his identity and changed his name to Yunxiang. He lived on the edge of the county town and had little contact with people.
Yun Xiang loves the piano very much, although she doesn't play it very well, she has to play a few pieces every day.
One day, she met a man named Li Dongwang in the Taolin outside the temple near her home.
Ju Muer nodded, it was about the same as what she had guessed. Think of it like the story told by a storyteller, a man and a woman fell in love, and then the man went away to seek fame, and never came back.
Sure enough, what Yun Qingxian said later was the same as this kind of story, except that the women who usually stay in their hometown and wait for the return of their lovers are very sad and suffer miserably, but Yun Qingxian's mother is not like this.
Yun Xiang lived a full life, and she taught Yun Qingxian very well. She plays the piano every day, and has improved a lot in her piano skills. She really missed Li Dongwang very much, and this missing made her write a wonderful and beautiful piano piece. She wrote all her feelings into the song, layer upon layer, endlessly.
Everyone who has listened to this piece praised it well, even the most famous piano teacher in the city praised it as wonderful, but I don't believe it was written by an unknown piano player like her.
Yun Qingxian loves his mother very much. She is kind, humble, and extremely talented. In the face of rumors and rumors, she does not dispute or argue, she is calm and has a great heart.
Yun Xiang told Yun Qingxian that his father was a great man, he valued love and righteousness, had great ambitions, and was confident that he would be an official and benefit the people. As to why this great father never came back, Yun Xiang told Yun Qingxian that it is not easy to become an official, let alone an ordinary man from a remote village with no money and family status, if he wants to gain a firm foothold in the capital, That was even harder. What's more, he still doesn't know the existence of Yun Qingxian.
It turns out that Li Dongwang and Yun Xiang's marriage was done hastily, and it was basically a private decision for life. The two worshiped the Buddha's heaven and earth in the temple, without even drinking a glass of water and wine. At that time, the two families had no elders and no money, so Yunxiang didn't ask for anything, and even gave all her savings to Li Dongwang for him to go to Beijing for the exam.
Not long after Li Dongwang left, Yun Xiang found out that she was pregnant and gave birth to Yun Qingxian.
Yun Qingxian's original name was Li Qingxian. Yunxiang told him about Li Dongwang every day, she didn't want her son to not understand her father, and she didn't want her son to complain about his father.
So Yun Qingxian grew up amidst his mother's praise to his father and the sound of that wonderful qin music.
When Yun Qingxian was fourteen years old, Yun Xiang died of a serious illness. When she was dying, she took Yun Qingxian's hand and asked him to go to the capital to find his father. She said that Li Dongwang's ambitions in the capital must be hard to pay, and it is not easy. She told Yun Qingxian not to blame him, and she asked Yun Qingxian to tell Li Dongwang that she had been waiting for him to come back to carry the sedan chair to marry her, but she was not in good health, so she couldn't keep this promise, so he must not blame her .
Yun Qingxian was so heartbroken that he changed his name from Li Qingxian to Yun Qingxian in memory of his mother. Anyway, the surname Li has never been called by anyone.
Yun Xiang was right about one thing, that is, a poor kid with no money and no family status is not easy to get along in the capital. Yun Qingxian suffered a lot, suffered a lot, and even suffered a lot of insults, but he endured them all. He looked everywhere for a middle-aged man named Li Dongwang, but he couldn't find it.
Until one day, he met a noble man named Shi Zechun.
Shi Zechun expressed great affection for this young man who traveled thousands of miles to the capital alone to find his father, and appreciated his hard work, so he arranged some errands for him so that he could have wages and no longer worry about food and clothing. .
Yun Qingxian has practiced martial arts with a monk in the temple since he was a child, and he is very skilled in martial arts. He was smart, thoughtful, decent, and serious, and he quickly stood out among the newcomers on errands.
Shi Zechun treated him very well, not only asked someone to continue to teach him martial arts and reading, but also personally taught him how to deal with advances and retreats in the officialdom.
Yun Qingxian was very grateful to him, and he asked Shi Zechun to help him find his biological father. He took out his mother's relics, which were the red clothes he had made for his private life with Li Dongwang. The cloth is coarse and the style is old, but it is kept clean and tidy. Because Yun Xiang said that when she wore this dress, Li Dongwang praised her for looking good.
Shi Zechun agreed, but the search for Li Dongwang has been delayed.
Yun Qingxian was extremely disappointed and confused at the time. Where did he go, and why can't even the high-ranking officials in the capital find him
At this time, Yun Qingxian met Ding Yanxiang.
At that time she was being bullied by an old man in her garden. Yun Qingxian didn't think about anything, and rushed to save her. It was only later that he found out that the official lady had the word "Xiang" in her name, which was the same as his mother's.
But Yun Qingxian didn't take Ding Yanxiang seriously at that time, he quickly forgot about it. At that time, she was just a passer-by in his life to him.
One day later, by chance, Yun Qingxian met Shi Zechun who was soaking in a hot spring. The unicorn birthmark on his shoulder made him suddenly understand everything—why a high-ranking official was so kind to a poor boy, why his father Li Dongwang will never be found.
It turns out that it is far away in the sky and close in front of you.
What made him most angry was that this Shi Zechun already had a wife and son, and he married an official lady.
At that time, Yun Qingxian had gone through several years of climbing, and he was no longer the young boy he was back then. He calmly explained everything to Shi Zechun, saying that he knew that he was his biological father.
At that time, Shi Zechun was a little panicked. He said that if he didn't make up a new identity, he couldn't get into an official career. He said that if he didn't marry that wife, he couldn't achieve his ideal. He said that he has been thinking of a way, looking for a suitable opportunity to rectify the names of Yun Xiang and Yun Qingxian, and let their names be included in his family's register.
Yun Qingxian believed it. Rather than believing it, it is better to say that he hopes to believe it.
Shi Zechun said that because his identity is a little troublesome, if he suddenly admits that he is his son, then his fabricated identity will be exposed and his career will be greatly affected, so he hopes that his son can give him more time.
Status - Yun Qingxian at that time naturally knew the importance of having a status in the capital. So he thought, what if his status could be nobler
Then can he bring his mother to become a naturalized historian and fulfill his mother's last wish
He met Ding Yanxiang again. It was a poor, helpless lady official who had a family background. So Yun Qingxian wanted to be her husband.
He got his wish, but Shi Zechun did not let go. Yun Xiang was still without a name, and Yun Qingxian was very angry.
Yun Qingxian waited and waited, his patience was almost exhausted. At this time, he encountered a problem, and he needed Shi Zechun's help.
That is Zhuo Yishu.
Zhuo Yishu was Yun Qingxian's childhood playmate.
Yun Qingxian's life was not easy when he was a child, because he had no father. In the eyes of outsiders, Yun Xiang is an unmarried girl, so she gave birth to a baby in vain, so there is a lot of gossip. So when he was a child, Yun Qingxian had no friends and was often bullied. But Zhuo Yishu has always protected him. Like his own sister, she accompanies him to study and practice martial arts with him. She beat the bad kids who bullied him, and she encouraged him not to cry, but to act like a man.
Zhuo Yishu even said that she would wait for Yun Qingxian to grow up and marry him as his wife.
But after all, she married someone else under the arrangement of the family before he became an adult. Yun Qingxian was very happy for her when her husband treated her well. To him, Zhuo Yishu is his own sister.
Unexpectedly, after many years, things have changed, and his good sister fell into the fire pit and sold herself in a brothel. Yun Qingxian doesn't have that much money, nor does he have that much power. What's more, he had learned to be smart at that time, and he couldn't leave a stain on himself.
So he bit the bullet and went to find Shi Zechun.
Surprisingly, Shi Zechun readily agreed to help him. But he also told him that being in a relationship with a brothel woman is a scandal, he has to handle it carefully and make some arrangements, and he has been busy recently, so the matter of confessing relatives has to be postponed.
Although Yun Qingxian felt that he was making excuses, but as Shi Zechun, it was really not easy to help him deal with a brothel woman, so he obeyed and did not mention the matter of admitting his relatives.
So it was delayed again and again.
Shi Zechun loved Qin, and so did Yun Qingxian.
One day Yun Qingxian suddenly thought that he would play to him the qin music his mother composed for Shi Zechun, and the deep affection in it would definitely move him. That must be what the mother wanted to do.
So he found a chance to play, and the effect was unexpectedly good. After hearing this, Shi Zechun burst into tears and was deeply moved. The father and son cried in each other's arms, and said a lot of personal words together.
When the matter developed to this point, Yun Qingxian believed that his father was sincere to his mother and himself, and he was still waiting.
However, not long after, Shi Zechun suddenly asked him what the name of the music was, and whether he had the score. Yun Qingxian bluntly told that there is a piano score, which was carefully studied and written by his mother, but the piano music is unknown, because his mother said that he would name it together after his father came back.
Shi Zechun took the score away.
Soon, Yun Qingxian heard the wind, saying that Shi Shangshu, who loves the piano like an idiot, got a peerless piano score. Yun Qingxian asked the leaker where the sheet music came from as if joking, and the humane said, Shi Shangshu said that it was bought from an ignorant peddler.
Yun Qingxian forced a smile on his face, but he was full of anger in his heart.
That was the mother's full affection, that was her wholehearted trust and waiting for this betrayed man, but all of these were in exchange for deceit, perfunctory and plunder.
Yun Qingxian went to see Shi Zechun again and asked him what to do about the confession of relatives. He told Shi Zechun that when his mother was dying, she still thought that she could not keep her promise and continue to wait for him, thinking that she could not live with him. Such deep friendship should move anyone. In any case, he should recognize his mother as his wife.
And Shi Zechun's answer at the time was that he now has a family and a family, and a whole house of people has to be arranged to be comforted and dealt with.
Yun Qingxian left Shangshu Mansion with a smile. He thought he had to give his mother an explanation.
He wanted to wait, but what he was waiting for was an opportunity to punish this heartless man.
The man said that he had a family and a whole house, and he couldn't recognize his mother because of this. Yun Qingxian thought, then everyone in this family should die.
He felt he had to.
He waited for his opportunity.
The big case of exterminating the family happened, and the person who died was an official ordered by the imperial court. It is impossible for the imperial court not to investigate to the end, so he needs a substitute for the dead. There is a murderer to close the case.
At this time, Shi Boyin appeared.
Yun Qingxian arranged everything: witnesses, physical evidence, reasonable motives, and the murderer who was arrested on the spot.
Everything went smoothly, but there were some troubles with Shi Boyin. Because when he tasted wine and played the piano with Shi Zechun, Shi Zechun told the secret of the piano score. He said it was a song written for him by a woman, a wonderful love song, deeply touching. He said that it was handed over to him by his son, and he said that one of his sons was also an official in court.
Shi Zechun didn't say who this person was, he liked to talk nonsense when he was drunk, so Shi Boyin didn't take it seriously at first. He pays attention to that good song, but doesn't care much about other people's housework. It wasn't until the murder happened and he was arrested as a murderer that he thought of all this. He explained everything to Yun Qingxian who was in charge of the case. Then, one day, he could no longer speak.
There is another accident in this matter, which is the emperor.
Originally, it would be fine if Shi Boyin was beheaded, but the emperor had never heard Shi Boyin play the piano in his life, so he felt that he was at a loss. And Shi Boyin is also very proud, and people who don't have a bosom friend don't play it. This is his strange temper, and it is also his desperate plan. He refuses to accept, he wants to seek grievances.
Officially, he had nothing to complain about, so he pinned his hopes on luthiers like him.
He hoped that there would be someone with a "confidant".
So there was the matter of the execution piano meeting, and all the things that followed.
Yun Qingxian searched for the score, but he didn't actually want the score. In fact, the tune was so haunting in his mind that he could play it with his eyes closed. What he was worried about was that someone could understand Shi Boyin's meaning, know his relationship with Shi Zechun based on the content of the piano music, and then associate with the truth of the matter. He released some fake news, such as martial arts cheats, etc., so as to disturb everyone's sight.
It's just that this matter happened to Ju Mu'er again, she didn't know martial arts, she didn't know anything else, she only knew piano. So she persistently believed that this matter had a lot to do with the piano score, and she firmly believed that Shi Boyin was dying not to show off his skills, but to have something to say.
