When she went to the wilderness this time, she heard some rumors from the world, and she also knew that Xiao Jing would definitely die if she went to the wilderness this time. However, in order to hide her eyes from others, she had to send her favorite male concubine to the battlefield, but It is also painful to give up love.
In the past few days, the male concubines were away, and she was indeed very lonely, so she hired some children to take care of her, but how could they be as attentive as the stern father-in-law?
The cold rain is falling, the season is over, and the cold winter of last year has finally become a thing of the past. But in this world full of spring, how can there be a good night's sleep?
She walked sadly in the palace. She had just walked on the street, but she was rarely in a better mood. Now walking in this majestic palace, the pain and loneliness in her heart were worse than the fear in her heart. fear.
I think about it, I think about it now, my husband has gone to die, my beloved concubine can be remembered diligently, thinking about life and death is not as annoying as happiness.
She gently picked off a willow leaf and played with it beside her eyebrows. She thought that her eyebrows with willow leaves were indeed much more regular than this willow leaf. She went to the lotus pond to look at some lotus leaves. The lotus leaf is lying in the water, but only some rotten branches and leaves are left. They are still holding it up hard, but they don't know whether they are holding it with charm or faith.
She frowned and said, "The lotuses are so blooming this year that I'm tired of them. When the season comes, I won't let them bloom!"
"Yes, I'll pull it out now, little man, I'll pull it out now," the guard behind him nodded in response.
"Hey? Did I tell you to pull it out? I told you to drain this pool of water. It will wither by then." This Tang Yansheng has a good appearance, but he never thought that his heart is so vicious. This guard is naturally I already know this very well, so I am extremely respectful in front of her. If one day I offend her, the consequences will be worse than this lotus flower.
The country has been defeated, it has been defeated!
But it was also in this palace that a slender and beautiful woman counted the cold flowers worriedly and said.
This woman is the daughter of Xiao Congyi and Tang Yan, named Xiao Sheng.
Xiao Sheng has had a bodhisattva heart since she was a child. When she went to the temple, she would always carry some food and distribute it to the widowed elderly and disabled children, but she never carried any silver with her. She knew very well. , these people, what is hungry is their belly, indeed their conscience.
Day after day, year after year, Tang Yan has not aged, but Xiao Sheng has become a slim girl. However, Xiao Sheng has never worshiped his mother. Although Tang Yan cannot talk to her daughter, they still occasionally talk to her. I went to see her. At first, I sat with her in the palace and chatted. But unfortunately, Xiao Sheng kept hiding from Tang Yan, claiming to be sick. Later, when Xiao Sheng came, he hid in a corner of the garden.
There was no other way, so Tang Yan could only occasionally stay away from her and watch her beautiful "cold-blooded" daughter quietly. Tang Yan was determined not to let go of her daughter. Envoys from neighboring countries often came to propose marriage, but... Talking about Xiao Sheng, she ordered people to burn down the courtyard where the envoy lived.
After this, no one dared to propose marriage, but there were some rumors in the world, "This princess of the Xiao Kingdom must be extremely beautiful, so Tang Yan hid some of her."
In fact, this is not the case. The appearance of this Xiao Sheng is indeed extremely pure. His curved eyebrows are like the bright moon, his bright pupils are like stars, his skin is like snow, his red lips are like cherry blossoms, his nose is slightly straight, and his face is indeed extremely beautiful. of generosity.
Now, she is in a state of desolation, but she doesn't even want to see her daughter. However, the pain in Tang Yan's heart will not be alleviated by some sweet drinks. During this day, the wind stopped raining, but the weather became worse. The cold had subsided, and Tang Yan, wrapped in a white fur coat, gathered in front of the stove to warm herself up.
"Your Majesty, I'm reporting from the front. There are 300,000 troops approaching our territory." Tang Yan, who was holding the jade Ruyi in her hand, heard a snap and the jade Ruyi fell to the ground. Her complexion instantly turned pale and purple, as if After drinking a pot of poison, she waved her hand calmly and said: "Go down, nothing happens."
The lights in the hall were swaying in all directions with the cold wind at night. The dim candlelight was like a ghost, wandering on the lamp stand. Tang Yan was dancing with a long sword in her hand, dancing gracefully in the long hall. Thinking of Xiao Congyi, his majestic mind and gentle smile, she cried. The clear tears followed her goose egg-smooth skin and fell on the long alley of lights drop by drop.
I don’t know when it started, but in the alleys and alleys of the city that had not been illuminated for a long time, a candle gradually lit up. The candle drifted farther and farther away. The ten-mile long street was actually lit with lights, but there was still no one walking alone on the street. , but at least the long street at this moment has some vitality and warmth.
The old lady who was sewing under the lamp was surrounded by one or two little great-great-grandchildren. The children were giggling. The old lady went to the next room to get some melons and fruits for the children who were crying for food. In her muddy old eyes, There were inevitably a few more lines of tears. The parents of these children had all gone to the battlefield. Most of the answers they got about whether they could come back were heartbreaking.
At this moment, only this old lady can give these little great-great-grandchildren some comfort and warmth. Without her, these children will definitely be in trouble in the future.
The sky gradually gets brighter, and the lights gradually go out. The green smoke from the wax torches inevitably brings a sense of helplessness and sadness to the helpless families.
On the tall horse sat a general with a kind face. This general was extremely tall and generous, with a pair of piercing tiger eyes, which was like a beacon in the darkness, giving people bright inspiration.
Behind the tall horse were several carriages. The carriage's carriage was made of black gold and was extremely noble. However, one did not know who was sitting in the carriage. I could only hear a few warblers coming from the carriage from time to time. There were loud whispers, and occasionally there were shouts and laughter. It was indeed laughter and curses, and it was very warm.
The marching army stretched hundreds of miles away, but it was not the spies of the Xiao Kingdom who came to report. There were only more than 300,000 soldiers. However, these soldiers were all patriotic die-hards, fighting against them in the wilderness. After countless battles, they finally lowered their stubborn heads after beheading all the generals. They were infected by Xiao Jing's chivalrous spirit and courage, and they all praised him, "Why don't we wait for Zhu Er to lend a helping hand!".
That's why there was this millions-strong army, and the sonorous iron cavalry made the earth tremble a little. On the loess-filled horizon, a scorching sun slowly rose.
Traveling all night for the past few days, we are indeed very hungry and cold. Now that we are getting closer to the capital of Xiao Kingdom, everyone has some strength in their hearts. As they are traveling without food or sleep, they are indeed carrying some sadness in their hearts. Compassion for the land and concern for the country and its people!
Now in a golden hall on the Xuan Mountain, Dao Sanyi was holding a golden cup in his hand and drinking with a withered old man. He let out a few hearty laughs from time to time. The look of the old man laughing was quite amusing. Very impressive.
"This kid can do it. I'll have to be more careful in the future," Dao Sanyi laughed loudly and said.
"You don't need to worry about this. You are fat and broad, and you can think about everything. Why don't you worry about the overall situation?" The withered old man closed his cloudy old eyes slightly, held the wine cup greedily, and drank slowly.
Then he said: "It's the brat from your sect. I've always thought he was pretty good. Why don't you let me wait?"
Dao Sanyi raised his eyelids and said slowly: "Old ghost, don't think about him anymore. You have been delusional all your life."
The withered old man chuckled slyly and said: "Tao Sanyi, there is nothing in this world that I, the old ghost, cannot do."
"Oh? Then you might as well give it a try!" Although the two of them were whispering in secret, they were both good-natured people. This Sanyi blew his beard and glared, and the withered old man giggled. They were indeed a pair of close friends. .
The sonorous iron horse Binghe fell into a dream. Tang Yan, who was lying on the imperial couch, had already drank a glass of poisonous wine. There were some tears in her eyes, but it was because of her daughter Xiao Sheng, "If this child loses his mother, if this The child has lost his mother...".
At three quarters of noon, several cries came from the palace. Xiao Sheng ran to Tang Yan's Zijing Palace and knelt on the ground unable to cry. However, before she could relieve her half-hearted sadness, those The eunuchs in power began to fight among themselves, and Xiao Sheng was imprisoned. At three o'clock tomorrow, Xiao Sheng will be sent on his way.
The palace was indeed a wasteland of bricks and rubble. The streets with the ever-lighted lanterns were now desolate and lonely. Soldiers and horses were lining the streets, arresting people and killing people everywhere. The cries of children suddenly became the atmosphere that filled the city. The only main color is that on the old trees with dead vines, there are some jackdaws with black iron feathers, staring at everyone with bright eyes, it is another sumptuous feast.
At this moment, bad news frequently came from the border towns on the outskirts of the Xiao Kingdom, which was indeed good news for the people in the city. The border towns were constantly being attacked, and the legend of the mighty and generous Xiao Jing was once again resoundingly carried out in the streets and alleys. Many people were angry. They cursed and were beheaded by some soldiers, but they still had a pair of angry eyes spitting out anger. They all laughed boldly when they died, but they were not heroes but ghost heroes.
Three days later, Xiao Jing took off the flute hanging in front of the city tower. She had been dead for a long time. Xiao Jing couldn't hide the look of grief on her face and mourned: "My sister, there is knowledge under the spring. I hope I won't suffer any more misery in my life." .
As soon as the massive army entered the city, they could hear the cheers of the people. However, some eunuchs in the palace were kneeling on the ground begging for food. In fact, they had already lost their original nature.
Two days later, more than a hundred eunuchs in the palace were executed at a shooting range more than a hundred miles outside the city. The scene on this day was indeed extremely spectacular. All the women, children, and the weak and widowed in the city were all executed an hour early. I rushed to the shooting range outside the city to watch this scene. After venting their anger, many old women cried and knelt on the ground, saying: "You evildoers, kill my son, kill my son."
The bloody wind rustled on the grass blades that were flying up and down. The bright red blood stains soon turned into withered black, leaving a hundred heads empty and rolling to the ground. Their dead souls will be lost in heaven and earth. Rolling between them, burning hot air, scalding cold air, wait until you have endured all the pain, and then go through the process of salvation.
Yu Zun was playing with a jade pot in his hand and said, "Sister Zhongxia, do you have any plans?"
Zhong Xia pouted and said: "What are your plans? I might as well follow you!".
Yu Zun laughed loudly and said: "I don't want to add your name to this sister now."
Zhong Xia snorted coldly and said: "Tsk, you just know, brother, you are really a bad person."
"Oh? Where does this bad word come from?" Yu Zun said with great interest.
Zhong Xia instantly wilted and said: "Isn't it... not... that stinking drunkard and a liar!".
Yu Zun laughed loudly and said: "Who is it? It turns out to be that guy! Why do you miss him?".
Zhongxia angrily said: "Brother, I hope you will never find your sister, hum!".
Yu Zun nodded and said: "That's great." At this time, the light in his eyes gradually dimmed, and he really thought about meeting that day that was neither a dream nor an illusion, neither fiction nor reality.
"Tch, brother, you are so stubborn. I'm even afraid that if Sister Qier is resurrected and I make her unhappy, you will stab me with a knife." Zhong Xia pouted, dissatisfied.
Yu Zun shook his head lightly and sighed: "Sister Zhongxia, looking at me like this makes Yu Zun feel even more miserable."
Zhongxia snorted and said, "Brother, stop acting, otherwise all the sisters will cry again!".
Yu Zun laughed loudly and said, "It's a good thing they didn't hear it." After that, he turned to look at his daughters who were playing with flowers and birds in front of the imperial garden outside the palace.
Zhong Xia blinked and said with a bad smile: "Brother, there are so many women around you, don't you want to send some of them away?"
Yu Zun shook his head lightly and said: "These daughters are all miserable people. Can you teach me how to send them away?"
Zhongxia blinked and said: "I think Sister Shanhe can go back to her hometown with your tribe. As for Sister Xianxian, I think our next step should be to find Yuan Taixuan. This Senior Brother Taixuan, actually He is also an extraordinary person, and it would be helpful for my brother to seek him out."
Yu Zun smiled and nodded, "What about your sister Yuran?".
Zhong Xia held her mouth and said pitifully: "Of course I will follow that stinky drunkard back to Xuanmen!".
Yu Zun laughed loudly and said, "But the stinky drunkard has left."
"Tch, brother, you are still playing riddles with me. If that liar is not a drunkard, who is he?" Zhong Xia said unconvinced.
Yu Zun shook his head indifferently and said: "No, no, in my opinion, Brother Ran Che, we are encountering an urgent matter now, and we are indeed worried about life and death. What you call a deceiver is nothing more than a false teacher." He's just an ordinary person, but you think too highly of him."
"Ah? Could it be that my judgment is wrong? It's impossible? Grandpa told me about the art of disguise... but the delinquent's temper is like that of a drunkard. How is it possible..." Zhong Xia was stunned and said.
At this point, Liu Yuran walked in. She shook her head gently and sighed: "Sister, that person is indeed not Yan Ranche. Just believe your brother."
Zhong Xia was stunned, her eyes were already glistening, she choked a little and said: "But...but, why...why is this happening?"
Because she had poured all her emotions into Fuzi during these days and mistakenly thought that Fuzi was Yan Ranche. At this time, one can imagine the emptiness in her heart.
Yu Zun gently patted her shoulder and said, "Sister, how can loyalty be so easy to come by in this world? Wipe away the tears from your eyes and go sit with me at Xiao Jing's place."
"Brother...brother...I...I don't want to go, I want...I want...to be alone for a while" Zhong Xia's eyes Red, wiping away her tears, she sobbed.
Yu Zun smiled and said: "If you don't go to Xiaojing Palace, how can you know the whereabouts of brother Ran Che?"
Zhong Xia hurriedly wiped the tears on his face, but still sobbed a little, and said: "Brother...brother...are you serious?".
Yu Zun smiled and nodded, caressed her forehead and said, "Sister Zhongxia, when did I lie to you?".
Zhong Xia nodded, snuggled into Yu Zun's arms, a little dependent and shy, and said: "Brother, I want to hug you, is that okay?".
Yu Zun was stunned for a moment, his body became extremely stiff, but he still nodded and said: "Hug me, until I feel no more pain in my heart, then let go!".
Zhong Xia laughed out loud, raised his fist, smashed Yu Zun's head, and said: "Brother, don't even think about it, I won't let you eat my tofu?".
Although she said this, the pain in her eyes still overflowed. Yu Zun shook his head helplessly and sighed: "Are all the people around me, Yu Zun, so miserable?"
Zhongxia curled his lips and said: "Brother, you are the happiest person in the world. How can you say that you are miserable?".
Yu Zun smiled and shook his head and said: "Since you understand so well, just wipe the tears from your eyes. Xiao Jing must be impatient for waiting."
Zhong Xia nodded, hesitated slightly, and said, "Brother, are you serious?"
Yu Zun smiled and said: "You will find out if you just let me go."
"Yes, I believe in brother," Zhong Xia said with a smile, but the sadness on his face did not lighten at all because of this smile.
