Flowers bloom and fall, and five spring and autumn years pass in the blink of an eye.
Five years, in the long river of history, may be just a drop in the ocean, but for people living in reality, it may be a life of ups and downs and a vicissitudes of life.
In the past five years, Ling Yun has been wandering in the world.
Sometimes he got tired of traveling around the world, so he found a paradise in the mountains and lived in seclusion. He lived a secluded life of leisurely clouds and wild cranes at sunrise and sunset, which made him feel at ease and refreshed.
After leaving the intrigues in his official career and the love and hatred in love, he suddenly found that he was much freer and more relaxed.
But every time in the dead of night, alone and unable to sleep, he would still think about practicing Nanchun, Master Lu, the brothers in the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Punishment, his mother, Princess Changqing, and... those frustrated and prosperous people in the past. day.
Longing was like a tide, hitting his heart one after another, making it difficult to calm down for a long time.
In the past few years, he had accidentally encountered Lian Nanchun several times; but Lian Nanchun still refused to forgive him and avoided him everywhere.
Until now, the way of communication between them is still the white pigeon; and they often practice Nanchun and refuse to come to the appointment.
It’s spring again, and it’s that outing season again.
The grass grows and orioles fly in the fields outside the capital, and everything is filled with the romance and poetry of spring; a few young children are holding long strings, running and laughing, flying kites in the fields, and the laughter and laughter echo in the sky for a long time; raising their heads, The sky is full of kites.
I don't know what kind of mood he was carrying, but Ling Yun unknowingly returned to this beautiful wilderness outside the capital.
Walking leisurely, admiring the bright spring scenery around him and enjoying the comfort of the spring breeze, Ling Yun couldn't help but raise his face, and a trace of melancholy filled his heart.
Suddenly, a child's clear and tender laughter reached his ears, and then a beautiful little ball rolled towards this side and stopped just at his feet.
Looking up, I saw a little boy of four or five years old running towards me. He had a tiger-like head and a big, watery eyes, and his childish face was filled with a sweet smile. He looked so cute. Extremely.
Ling Yun gently leaned down to pick up the ball and handed it to the little boy with a smile on his face.
The little boy took the ball and said timidly: "Thank you, uncle."
Ling Yun looked at him, suddenly feeling a sense of déjà vu, and couldn't help but ask: "Tell me, what is your name?"
The little boy said crisply: "My name is Tianci."
"God-given?" Ling Yun repeated the name.
At this time, a woman's clear voice said: "Young Master, Young Master..."
The little boy turned back and said, "I'm here!"
The woman walked up and met Ling Yun face to face.
Ling Yun was startled for a moment, "Are you... Xiang Yun?"
It turns out that this woman is Huanyu's personal maid Xiangyun.
Xiangyun also recognized Ling Yun at this time, and said with surprise and joy: "Jun Ma Ye?... No, the eldest son..."
Ling Yun's clear eyes turned and asked: "This young master is..."
Xiangyun said: "This is our young master."
Ling Yun was shocked, "Cheng Qi's... son?"
Xiangyun nodded slightly.
Ling Yun felt a variety of emotions for a moment. Silently looking at the cute little boy in front of him, the child's face resembled that of Princess Huanyu, Yun Yan's past came to mind again.
Five years, to him, seemed like it was just a snap of his fingers; but when he looked at the child in front of him, he had grown so big in the blink of an eye...
While he was pondering, footsteps sounded in front of him, and a group of figures walked towards this side. I could see clearly from a closer look. The one at the front was Princess Chang Qing, followed by He Chengqi and Princess Huanyu. He Luwei and dozens of family guards were waiting on her.
When he saw Princess Huanyu, Ling Yun's face was frozen for a moment, and some obscure emotions were tumbling in his eyes; when she also looked over, he suddenly withdrew his eyes and regained his composure, looking as if Not caring.
Seeing them all coming, He Tianci shouted happily: "Grandma, daddy, mother..." He opened his little hands and jumped up to greet them.
While Princess Chang Qing held her grandson's chubby body in her arms, she also saw Ling Yun and couldn't help but be stunned.
The mother and son stared at each other with tears in their eyes, speechless for a long time.
Seeing this, He Chengqi broke the deadlock and stepped forward to salute Ling Yun deeply, "Brother, how are you? I'm being polite!"
Ling Yun came to his senses and quickly returned the gift; then he said to Princess Chang Qing: "Mother."
Princess Chang Qing was so excited that she took Ling Yun's hand and said with joy and anger: "Lin'er, you are finally back! How have you lived for so many years? You don't miss your home, and you don't come back to see me. ?——Do you know how much your mother misses you and worries about you during the period when you are not in the house?..."
Princess Changqing was overjoyed to meet again after a long separation. She held Ling Yun's hand and greeted her, talking eloquently.
Ling Yun silently looked at his mother's loving and enthusiastic face, her eyes filled with tears, feeling unspeakable sadness and sadness in her heart, and silently lowered her head.
Later, Princess Chang Qing asked Ling Yun again: Will she not leave when she comes back this time? It's just right to stay in the house, spend time with her, and enjoy the happiness of a family.
Ling Yun felt a little confused, "This... we'll talk about it later."
Princess Chang Qing said unhappily: "What do you mean we'll talk about it later? - Lin'er, when you come back this time, there's nothing my mother can say to let you go!"
Before Ling Yun could say anything else, Princess Chang Qing already said: "By the way, Lin'er, I forgot to tell you. This is your nephew Tiansheng. He is four years old this year. Do you think he is beautiful? Hey, don't tell me. How much imagination do you still have! - Tianci, come here quickly, I have met your uncle."
He Tianci was smart and cute. He walked over obediently after hearing the words. His fair little face was lightly pink, and he called out softly and cutely: "Uncle."
Ling Yun's originally cold and indifferent heart was immediately melted by the cuteness and cuteness of the innocent boy in front of him, rippling like spring water in a river; he responded with a smile and held the child affectionately in his arms .
He Tianci stared at a pair of starry eyes as pure as a little white rabbit, and asked curiously: "I called you uncle just now, why do you call me uncle now?"
Princess Chang Qing smiled and said, "Because you didn't know my uncle just now."
He Tianci tilted his little head and said half-understanding: "Grandma, do your father and mother also know your uncle? How should your father and mother call your uncle?"
Everyone stayed for a moment, speechless. The surrounding atmosphere suddenly became awkward and tense.
Huan Yu said coldly from the side: "Tianci, come here!"
Ling Yun's heart sank, and he slowly let go of Tianci.
Tianci walked up to Huan Yu and continued to ask, "Mother, you haven't told me yet, how should you call uncle?"
Huan Yu's face was livid, the line of his jaw became tighter and tighter, and his expression looked unprecedentedly embarrassing.
Tianci did not notice his mother's face. The child's innocence and curiosity made him break the casserole and ask, "Mother, please tell me quickly!..."
Huanyu's tense posture could no longer hold up; she suddenly raised her hand and struck Tianci several times without telling him.
Tianci was baffled and started crying aggrievedly.
The muscles on Ling Yun's face gradually became stiff and stayed there for a while.
Princess Chang Qing couldn't help complaining to Huan Yu: "The child is still young and doesn't understand anything. Huan Yu, why are you so angry at him?"
Huan Yu was speechless, her face raised, tears already falling.
The bitterness and resentment that had been suppressed for a long time surged into her heart at that moment. She felt as if a big stone was pressing on her chest, and she was so suffocated that she could hardly breathe.
She sobbed, wiped the tears from her face with the back of her hand, hugged the child and walked forward without looking back.
He Chengqi shouted in panic: "Princess!..." He greeted Princess Changqing and hurriedly followed with the maids Xiangyun, Ying'er and Yan'er.
Only Princess Chang Qing and Ling Yun's mother and son are left here.
Ling Yun's sword eyebrows frowned slightly, and after several changes in his expression, only a deep and solemn look of thoughtfulness remained.
He pondered for a moment and finally spoke with difficulty, "Mother, it seems that I really shouldn't be here. I think it's better for me to leave."
Princess Chang Qing's beautiful eyebrows twitched unconsciously, and she said anxiously: "Why are we just meeting, and before we have a chance to say a few words, you are leaving again! Besides, it's not like you don't have Huan Yu's temper. You know, what are you going to do with her?"
Ling Yun pursed her thin lips tightly and said helplessly: "Mother."
Princess Chang Qing spoke directly and said decisively in an unquestionable tone: "Okay, don't say anything! Lin'er, do you know how much my mother has missed you over the years? Promise me, this time When you come back, you must live safely in the house and spend time with your mother, okay?"
Looking at my mother's tearful eyes with tiny ripples of light, the eyes are affectionate and full of expectation, like an ocean full of love, which is irresistible and I can't help but indulge in it.
At that moment, he felt as if his throat was choked by something, and he couldn't say a word...
Princess Huanyu sat in trance on the stone bench in the pavilion on the field, melancholy looking at the scenery outside the pavilion, and unconsciously remembered the beautiful spring a few years ago when the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant.
At that time, she made an appointment with Ling Yun, Jiang Chun, and Lu Qiuyue and came here for an outing. It was the same beautiful season, the same endless wilderness, the children running and playing in the wilderness, the sky full of kites...
The past is as vivid as yesterday. Today, the old scenery is still there, but everything in front of us has changed. Thinking about Yun Yan's past, her vision blurred.
He Chengqi stood beside Huan Yu, looking at her melancholy look. He hesitated to speak, only lowered his head and sighed softly.
At this moment, there was suddenly a burst of rapid footsteps in front; then the maid Ying'er stumbled over and said with a cry: "Princess, Young Master, something serious has happened! Young Master, he...he..."
Huan Yu immediately transitioned from memories to reality. She raised her eyebrows and said, "What's going on? Tell me!"
Ying'er cried: "The young master...he was kidnapped by some strong men!..."
