Chapter 55: A stone's throw away

Fang Xueru didn't want to get married, but the Duchess of Chengguo was forced to die, and in the end she could only get on the sedan chair with tears. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After marriage, she also saw Xia Yun's kindness to her, Xia Yun didn't even have a connecting room for her, if other women would have been tempted, but Fang Xueru couldn't let go of the general, and regretted that she betrayed the friendship between the two, and she has always been lukewarm to Xia Yun.

If only life went on like this, but when Fang Xueru was pregnant with Xia Yun's second child, that military general actually came back alive.

It is said that he was taken captive by the enemy as a prisoner of war, but he missed his homeland, endured all kinds of suffering, and never changed his will, and repeatedly absconded without success.

Later, in a large-scale rebellion, he jumped up and killed the enemy's leader, and then absconded all the way back with the head of the general.

This incident shocked the government and the opposition at the time, and the emperor personally met with the military general and listened carefully to the details of his disappearance in the past few years.

Because of his bravery during his captivity and his final killing of the enemy general, the emperor made an exception to confer on him the title of General Wu'an and re-established him.

And Fang Xueru, who was in Xia Mansion, fainted directly when she heard the news, and when she woke up, she washed her face with tears all day long, and she didn't get a drop of water.

Xia Yun saw all this, and only after inquiring about it did he know the truth of the matter.

At that moment, his heart was full of mixed feelings, and he couldn't say the sourness. I thought it was a godsend, but now I know that my naivety is terrible, but the blame is that I can't get a little return for digging out my heart and lungs, but there is such a antecedent.

The elders of the Chengguo Mansion and Concubine Jin persuaded Fang Xueru many times to let go of the past and cherish the present days, but to no avail.

Just watched Fang Xueru getting thinner and thinner, at that time she was four months pregnant, and she spent her days like this, everyone thought that the child in her belly couldn't be kept, but they didn't expect the child to survive tenaciously.

In between, another incident happened, the general, that is, General Wu'an, found the Xia family and said that he wanted to see Fang Xueru.

Everyone says: The hatred of killing one's father and taking one's wife are not shared.

How could Xia Yun let him go to see him, but General Wu'an knelt outside the gate of Xia Mansion as if he had an iron heart, and only wanted to see Fang Xueru.

By the time Fang Xueru knew, General Wu'an had been kneeling in front of the door of the Xia Mansion for two days and one night, and was later carried back by the people in the mansion, which was a sensation throughout the capital.

Because of General Wu'an's unyielding will, the people already respected him. After hearing about this, there were rumors on the streets and alleys that General Wu'an and Fang Xueru were in love but were beaten with a stick, and after six years, life and death, they still did not change their original intentions.

Everyone seems to have sketched out a lot of historical classics in their hearts, and then fantasized about General Wu'an and Fang Xueru, two crazy men and women, as those hard-working mandarin ducks.

For a while, the rumors accusing the Chengguo Mansion and Xia Yun of being ruthless blew all over the streets and alleys like a gust of wind, and even said that Xia Yun took advantage of the danger of others to marry Fang Xueru.

Xia Yun always thought that it was the darkest time of his life.

It wasn't until Fang Xueru gave birth to the second son of the Xia family, and then committed suicide by hanging Liang to repay the old fate, and General Wu'an invited himself to the border and never came back, that the matter ended in the way that people least wanted to see.

And Xia Yi is the second son of Fang Xueru and Xia Yun, the child born in gossip.

He was born without a mother, and his father would think of that dark time when he saw him, so he was able to avoid him, and no one controlled him since he was a child, and he developed a perverse temperament.

Since he was a little older, about seven or eight years old, he flew eagles and horses with some rich children in the capital, and he didn't know how to make progress.

is older, when he is ten years old, Zhangtai Chu Pavilion, which does not have his Xia Yi's figure.

By the time Xia Yun found out that his son was unlearned and unskilled, and began to want to rectify it, Xia Yi was already a well-known gentleman in the capital.

Xia Yun had no choice but to find Xia Yi's maternal grandfather, Chengguo Gong Fang Ying, and asked him to help control it.

The Fang family of the Chengguo Mansion has been a martial arts clan since the founding of Taizu, and the men of the Fang family have all been trained since childhood.

After Xia Yi was taken over by Cheng Guogong, he was forced to practice hard day and night, and he endured all the hardships. But he didn't dare to give up, because once he had the heart to slacken, Cheng Guogong would take out the Fang family's eighteen kinds of "torture" to "urge" him.

In the past three years, Xia Yi has also practiced some skills, but his skills are not used in the right place.

After a few years in the Fang family, his cousin Fang Ziyu followed him, and the two came out together to "break through".

The two of them are known as "invincible opponents of the family", and they stirred up a lot in the capital and caused a lot of trouble.

Don't look at Xia Yi, who has not been favored by his father since he was a child, but he has fallen into the eyes of Cheng Guifei Niangniang.

Concubine Cheng Guifei has been unable to have children because she helped the emperor block the assassination and injured her body in a palace banquet in the early years, and she has nothing to do except for the princess who was conceived by the emperor not long after marrying her.

And Fang Xueru is the younger sister of Concubine Cheng's relatives, and Xia Yi's background is so bumpy, so Concubine Cheng takes a lot of care of Xia Yi, and even treats him as her own.

It can be said that the reason why Xia Yi is like this is mostly because of Concubine Cheng's favor, and with Concubine Cheng's favor, Xia Yi is even more unscrupulous.

And the reason why the three princes brought Xia Yi and Fang Ziyu to Fengyang this time was entirely because these two scourges provoked people who shouldn't be messed with.

If there is anyone in the capital who cannot be provoked, it is definitely the king of faith.

King Xin is the younger brother of the former emperor, the uncle of the current saint, when the saint ascended the throne was supported by King Xin, and even the rebellion of King Qi was led by King Xin to kill him.

After the throne of the saint was secured, King Xin asked the emperor to order him to return to his fiefdom to retire in the name of old age.

King Xin is an upright person, since the emperor left him in the capital, he did not force it, and his biggest hobby in this life is horses, so he asked the emperor to choose a hill to rebuild the house, just to raise horses.

It is said that there are thirteen or fourteen top-notch horses raised by Shin Wang, and he takes care of them every day, from taming the horses to selecting materials, mixing, feeding, brushing, and inspecting, and does everything himself, which shows how much Shin Wang loves horses.

And the person Xia Yi and Fang Ziyu provoked this time was King Xin, to be precise, the two provoked King Xin's horse, and to be more precise, the two shot one of King Xin's horses.

Coincidentally, in fact, the two of them did it completely unintentionally, they really didn't know that it was King Xin's horse.

The weather was fine that day, they asked a few children of the family to run horses together, the direction was Daxing, Xia Yi and Fang Ziyu rode a good horse selected by the Chengguo Mansion, and the speed was naturally extraordinary.

When the two of them had reached their appointed destination, they had left the people behind them a long distance, and the two brothers let go of the reins and let the horses wander by themselves, when they were talking about some old things, when they suddenly heard a whistling sound on the mountain not far away.

When they looked up, they saw a man in his forties hanging on the side of a yellow, with his hooves turned upside down, his head and neck flicked, and he was about to throw the man off his back, but one of the man's feet was still hooked in the stirrup as if he could not get out, and the direction of the yellow horse was a steep slope.

Such a dangerous scene happened to fall in the eyes of the two, and in a hurry, Xia Yi touched the quiver on the horse's back, bent the bow and took the arrow, and shot it into the eyes of the yellow horse.

It was this shot that shot himself to Fengyang.
