Chapter 258: The Cause of Sin

"Heaven and earth, flowing clouds, sunset, sunset......"

These days have passed, and He Qi still can't adapt to Xiao Wushuang calling him a "son" like this. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Whenever he thinks of the "father" he has called for seventeen years in Yuzhou, he feels sad again.

Whose son is he? Blood and affection are mixed together, and it is not so easy to distinguish at all.

Xiao Wushuang nodded, but his eyes gradually fell: "What else can you see besides these?"

He Qi followed his eyes and looked over, it was a scattered roof, some were green tiles, some were still thatched, dilapidated and collapsed, and they couldn't be called houses at all.

"What a broken house......" he muttered.

Before he came to the northwest, he really thought that Yuzhou was already a poor and remote country, and he would never forget the only time he went to the capital, the eyes were full of Zhulou and Jade Pavilion, and his eyes were full of colorful embroidery.

But the northwest, as if everywhere was dusty, was not so brilliant at all, almost all the colors of condensation.

Xiao Wushuang sighed: "The person sitting on the dragon chair, how can he know that there is such a house under the sky, and how can he know what kind of life his people are living?"

"And such a dilapidated house, but shelter the people of the northwest, if the Hu people attack Ningzhou, they will not even have such a house, they will definitely be displaced, or in the war to ashes...... Son, this first decree is only to untie the shackles on me, so that I can go back to where I should be, and do my duty for Daqi. No matter how my imperial brother treated me back then, it was a matter between me and his brother, and it had nothing to do with the people. Therefore, this holy decree, I must accept it, I can't put the northwest in danger because of personal grudges, I once swore when I first went to the battlefield that for the rest of my life, I will always protect Daqi, until I can no longer go into battle to kill the enemy!"

Resolute eyes looked at the vast world in the northwest, and his deep voice was loud.

The sunset burned half of the sky, He Qi looked at the vast world and the strange father in front of him, and his heart was surging-why did he come here in the first place, in addition to the obsession in his heart, didn't he also want to show his ambitions?

He Qi's chest rose and fell, and the person in front of him was as bright and dazzling as this fiery sunset, although it was just an ordinary robe, it seemed to have golden armor on his body, and the posture of the god of war was vaguely visible, father, this was his father!

He was finally able to understand why the prince said in his handwriting that the He family could keep the heir of Prince Qin, and he would die without regrets.

Xiao Wushuang saw reverence in his son's eyes, such a look was no stranger to him in the years when he was high-spirited, but in the years he lived in Ningzhou, except for those subordinates who followed in the past, he had not seen it in the eyes of others.

His son could look at him like this, and what rose in his heart was a pride that was different from before.

Many years ago, his wife also looked at him like this, her eyes were like gentle water, she sorted out his armor for him, sent him on the expedition, and waited for him to return, but their time together was so short.

In his life, he has never failed anyone, but his wife. Xiao Wushuang's eyes darkened.

"As for this second decree, whether to receive it or not is not mine, but to you. He sighed a lot in his words: "If you go to the capital, I will go to the table and ask for the title of prince for you, if you don't want to go, anyway, I haven't married another wife in these years, and no one knows about your existence...... But my father really wishes you would go back. ”

"When your mother was there, I thought that the days were still long, and when she was pregnant with you, she was very fragile, and she wished I could be by her side, but I was not always by her side...... In the end, it was I who killed her. ”

He Qi was silent.

Mother...... Mrs. He is not his mother, nor has she perfunctory him with the warmth that does not belong to him, and the mother who has never met, in the handwriting of Mrs. He, is a gentle and docile, but tenacious woman, who fell into the cold winter river, but held on in a coma, until she gave birth to him in a pool of blood, and then left silently and never woke up.

"What kind of person is my mother?" No matter how much he didn't want to admit it, He Qi couldn't change his face, which was extremely similar to Qin King Xiao Wushuang, and the maternal love he had never received would never be available again.

"She is a very beautiful woman, the wife that your imperial grandfather chose for me, I had never met her before we got married, but the first time I saw her, I liked her very much. She doesn't talk much, but she is very considerate, I have been fighting abroad all the year round, and she has never had any complaints, we get together less and leave more, and we have you for many years after marriage. At that time, when I saw that she was worried, I ordered someone to build a tall building in the palace of King Qin, wanting to please her, but I never thought that it would become the cause of our family's ruin......"

At that time, he was too young, a rough man who was accustomed to seeing life and death, bleeding without tears, and tried to please his wife for the first time, but in the eyes of the emperor, it was a great disrespectful charge.

"On that day, my royal brother stood with me on the wall of the palace as he did now, and then he pointed to the tall building I had built for your mother, and he asked me if I knew that it was transgression, and that it was disrespectful...... Naturally, I don't know, there are so many high-rise buildings in the palaces of the emperor's relatives, and the building I built for your mother is nothing at all, but he wants to punish me......"

Xiao Wushuang's faintly sad voice was like a gale in the northwest, blowing from He Qi's ears, and he remembered a sentence, if he wanted to add sin, there was no excuse.

"I never thought that my brother, who had loved and admired me since I was sensible, would condemn me so undoubtedly, since I was able to go to the battlefield, I have been fighting everywhere, although it is to protect the country of Daqi, but in my selfish heart, I also want to clear the way for my brother, so that he can smoothly ascend to the throne he wants...... In the end, he got his wish, but he couldn't wait to start turning back on me. Now that I think about it, what is the meaning of all my ambitions? I have made the world my duty, my brother is my first everywhere, but I have lost my wife forever. If it weren't for Lord He's whole family who saved you, I would have nothing to look forward to in this world. ”

"Although I don't regret the blood and sweat I shed for Daqi, and I want to do my best for the people I have guarded in the future, I hope that my own son will never follow my path again. I hope you can live well, be with your beloved girl for the rest of your life, have a warm home, and your mother's spirit in heaven, so that you won't blame me, can you understand?"

"So, Father, you ......"

What do you want him to do?

"I hope you go back to the capital, be the rightful son of King Qin, and live your father's mutilated half of his life well. ”
