It was precisely because Xiao Yuan discovered the strangeness of Yang Shufei's guilt that he followed the clues and found out the truth.
Then he discovered that all the people who killed King Zhou had paid their lives, and no one was left.
Queen Liu sat back, picked up the teacup and took a sip, then slowly raised her head and looked at Xiao Yuan with pitiful eyes.
She just looked at Xiao Yuan, and after a full quarter of an hour, she sighed and said in an extremely low voice: "Your mother's death is really my fault. I was the one who gave her the idea to hang herself."
As soon as Queen Liu finished speaking, Xiao Yuan suddenly raised his head and glared at her, as if a lion would rush over and bite her to death at any time.
Queen Liu's eyes did not dodge at all, and she faced Xiao Yuan's strong anger and doubts, and said: "The second year after I followed my cousin to Beijing, I moved into your grandfather Zhang Qi's home, and lived there for ten years. Your mother is about my age. Similarly, I treat her as my own sister, and she is very good to me. Before she got married, we were inseparable. We read together, worked as female workers together, and played the piano together. It was an unforgettable time."
The anger in Xiao Yuan's eyes did not diminish, and he listened to Empress Liu recalling the events of that year with his eyes wide open.
Back then, Xiao Yuan and King Zhou ate poisonous snacks together, but Xiao Yuan didn't eat enough and was rescued.
Under the careful care of his mother, Ms. Zhang, he was finally able to get out of bed after being bedridden for half a year, and his body slowly recovered.
The emperor lost his two sons and was extremely sad. Queen Guo was even more heartbroken and collapsed.
Both of them intended to let Xiao Yuan, who had the closest relationship with King Zhou, guard the tomb of King Zhou.
When Empress Liu learned of this, she quietly told Xiao Yuan's mother Zhang.
Mrs. Zhang was shocked. She would never let her son spend his life in the mausoleum. She immediately went to plead with the emperor and empress, but Empress Liu held her back and persuaded her for a long time before she gave up the idea.
Mrs. Zhang returned to the Xiao Mansion and went straight to the main room to ask Mrs. Xiao.
Mr. Xiao only said: "I'm sorry for this boy, Shiro." Apparently he already knew what the emperor meant.
Zhang suddenly understood the reason why the emperor and empress always sent people to ask about Shiro's recovery. It turned out that they were waiting for Shiro to recover and let him guard the tomb of King Zhou.
Knowing the emperor's and queen's intentions, Zhang became disheartened and soon fell ill.
She was so sick that she couldn't even eat, and she lost a lot of weight in just a few days.
Finally, she asked Empress Liu for a solution, and Empress Liu said: "If someone in the Xiao family dies, and Silang needs to stay at home to observe mourning, the emperor will most likely find someone else to guard the tomb of King Zhou. When Silang's three-year period of filial piety is over, the emperor and Queen Guo should also forget about this matter."
The three-year filial piety period is a great filial piety. Xiao Yuan will only observe the three-year filial piety when a close elder has passed away.
Zhang got this idea and went back to Xiao's house to sleep with Xiao Yuan for one night, then hanged himself the next day.
She left two letters, one for Xiao Yuan's father and one for Empress Liu.
After Queen Liu finished speaking, she found the letter Zhang left for her from the box at hand and handed it to Xiao Yuan.
"Your mother entrusted me to take care of you. Not only did I fail to take care of you, but I kept taking advantage of you, putting you in danger and struggling on the line of life and death. I am unworthy of her trust. Most of what she said in this letter is It’s written for you, just keep it.”
Xiao Yuan raised his hands above his head to accept the thin letter. When he raised his head, his face was full of tears.
Queen Liu slowly closed her eyes when she saw his tears and painful expression.
There was no emotion on her face, but two lines of tears fell down.
Xiao Yuan put the letter in his arms, knelt down and looked at Queen Liu, and asked: "Sage, why did you tell my mother such a decisive method in the first place? How could you know that I don't want to keep vigil for King Zhou." Perhaps, this matter is still there. There are other ways to solve it. Maybe he can live his whole life by guarding the tomb of King Zhou.
He always knew that his mother died for him. In the past, he thought it was Queen Guo who wanted his life. In order to give Queen Guo an explanation, his mother gave her own life in exchange for his chance to live, one life for another.
I found out today that he was wrong.
His mother sacrificed her own life for his freedom.
Just for his freedom, his mother went to die so calmly. Just for his freedom, his mother dropped all her concerns and everyone, just to keep his freedom.
His mother's cherishment of him made a seven-foot-old man burst into tears.
He is afraid that he cannot bear his mother's love now.
Xiao Yuan put his head on the ground and cried out.
He would rather stay in the mausoleum all his life without taking a step out, and he also wants his mother to live a long life.
However, his mother would rather die than allow him to lose his freedom.
Then, his freedom is more valuable than anything else.
He will no longer be manipulated by anyone, otherwise, he will disgrace his mother.
Empress Liu could see Xiao Yuan's unwillingness and severe pain. She only said: "I don't know what you think. I only know that your mother is willing to do anything for you. She is my friend. If I can help, No matter what it is, as long as it can help her achieve her goal, she will be informed."
Xiao Yuan gritted his teeth and did not reply.
Xu Nuo waited on tiptoe for a long time and finally saw Xiao Yuan.
He was tall and big, and he walked very fast, but his expression did not have the cunning or resentment of the past, like a child who had lost his way.
Xu Nuo went up to him and asked, "But it went well?"
Xiao Yuan said: "Well, there are many people in the palace, let's go out and talk."
Although this was a place where he always came without any spies, he was still worried about being seen making promises.
"It doesn't matter, I'm wearing a servant's clothes, no one will recognize me." Xu Nuo said, but she quickly followed him and quickly left the palace.
After leaving the palace, the two went around in a circle and entered the Harmony Hall.
As soon as he entered the box, Xiao Yuan hugged Xu Nuo and hugged her tightly, burying his head on her shoulder without saying a word.
Xu Nuo hugged his waist and hugged him with great force.
Soon, she noticed some moisture on her shoulders.
Xiao Yuan cried?
She handed him the handkerchief and said, "Tell me."
Xiao Yuan took the veil and told Xu Nuo about the conversation just now.
"You want to avenge your mother and King Zhou. The person who killed King Zhou has been punished by the Emperor and Queen Guo, and your mother..."
Xu Nuo wanted to ask if Xiao Yuan thought Queen Liu was the murderer of his mother.
"I can't avenge my mother, I can only live well." Xiao Yuan said with red eyes.
He was not carried away by resentment, and Queen Liu did not want to kill his mother.
As for the Emperor and Queen Guo, they did not force their mother.
This is the mother's choice.
In front of the promise, he did not want to hide the grief in his heart.
The pain and hatred that had accumulated for many years had nowhere to vent at this moment.
Xu Nuo saw that Xiao Yuan was at a loss and didn't know how to soothe his heart. He only said: "The truth you want is finally found out. This is the ultimate goal, isn't it? As for revenge, those evil people have long ago Just get retribution without staining your sword, which is better."
