Chapter 50: A Life Is Not in Vain
The carriage shook violently, and Hu Feng sat on the front seat in the carriage, and two maids sat on the upside down. In the space between the three of them lay a large bamboo basket, in which a teenager was squeezed.
This young man is Xuanyuan Mingyu. The jolting of the carriage shook him awoke.
Xuanyuan Mingyu opened his eyes and looked, a ray of morning light shone through the gap in the car window, Hu Feng's triumphant face was in full view in the morning light, he stepped on his body with both feet, and actually used his body as a stepping stone.
"Oh, no......" Xuanyuan Mingyu instinctively wanted to resist, why did he see this demon when he opened his eyes?
Hu Feng condescendingly squinted at the bamboo basket under his feet, knowing that Xuanyuan Mingyu, who was sleeping quietly in it at the moment, was only temporarily honest on the surface, worried about whether he would be stabbed when he arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion later?
Seeing the young man in front of him open his eyes and reveal a look of disgust, Hu Feng realized that Xuanyuan Mingyu was very disgusted with him, and the traces of tenacity and unyielding were depicted on his eyebrows. Annoying! Hu Feng thought angrily: This little proton has never been conquered by himself!
"What not? I don't know what to live or die! There is no chance for you to choose. Hu Feng bent down and pinched a handful of Xuanyuan Mingyu's face, which was as beautiful as a crown of jade, leaving a red mark.
Xuanyuan Mingyu seemed to be in a situation of no joy or sorrow, she didn't feel how much pain her cheeks were pinched, and the first feeling she felt was hunger. In order not to show cowardice, he turned his face and looked out the car window at the small square view.
There are a lot of ornamental purple bamboos planted on the road near Prime Minister Hu Cheng's house, which are slender and tall.
Xuanyuan Mingyu saw a flash of purple bamboo from the opening of the car window, and remembered that his nurse also liked to wear purple dresses, and walked around in front of him to serve tea and feed food and ask for warmth.
Nurse ...... Why don't you tell me what the cause of my mother's death is? The sound of the wheels of the carriage seemed to be a nurse whispering euphemistically, and the nurse's bewildered gaze shuttled in the shadow of Zizhu, containing the bitterness of not being able to speak to others.
The mother concubine died early, and the emperor handed over the third prince Xuanyuan Mingyu to Concubine Chen to raise, but in fact, the nurse brought it up.
The nurse was very fond of Xuanyuan Mingyu, and knew that he had a poor background.
Xuanyuan Mingyu's mother was defeated in the palace fight and was slandered and framed. Since the emperor was convinced, he judged that the third prince was born to his mother and someone else, and imprisoned him in the cold palace. The mother died of depression and died at a young age.
The death of the mother concubine seems to be like a mystery, and Xuanyuan Mingyu has not been solved so far. If his father is not his biological father, then who is his father? Why would the mother concubine risk the world's condemnation to have children with others?
Xuanyuan Mingyu's heart was filled with jumping and flickering beacon smoke swirling, and his bleak life experience was so depressed that he couldn't breathe. It is for this reason that my father ruthlessly sent himself to the Western Qin Kingdom as a proton, and with a closed eye, he watched himself suffer and suffer at any time, will he die at any time?
Xuanyuan Mingyu's heart cramped, remembering that when he was sent abroad, only the nurse was sent to the gate of the palace with compassion, burying all her worries and anxieties under a smile on her face, guessing that she was going to be more auspicious and less auspicious, and it was difficult to return to China.
Now, Xuanyuan Mingyu has a glimmer of hope in his heart, and wants to return to China to ask his father, is he born to his father? If he is really an evil seed, then there is nothing to look forward to, and it is better to die in the Western Qin Kingdom.
Hearing Hu Feng say that he had no chance to choose, Xuanyuan Mingyu smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "No...... I also have the option to ...... Die! ”
Hu Fengsheng was furious, kicked Xuanyuan Mingyu's forehead with his boots, and said harshly: "Your grandmother, you can't die if you want to!" You are now going to be sent out of Lu to be a subordinate, and if you are lucky, you will be a male pet, which is considered a gift. I won't let you die, don't be unhappy! If you act rashly, I will bind you again. ”
Xuanyuan Mingyu stretched out his hand and wanted to push away Hu Feng's boots that were stepping on his forehead, but unfortunately he was hungry for three days and was completely powerless, feeling melancholy in his heart, and thinking sadly: Is it true that he was born like a straw?
At the same time, Qin Xingyi was also worried about Xuanyuan Mingyu.
After Qin Xingyi got drunk, she was carried back to Xifeng Building by her senior brother Zeng Hao, and slept in her room until dawn.
After Qin Xingyi woke up, she felt a little heavy in her head, walked to the window, pushed open the two windows, and the pear blossoms in the yard were swaying in the morning light, exuding floating fragrance.
She heard the breeze and birds blowing down from the distant sky, sending Mingyu to her mournful voice, and she could vaguely distinguish a few tail notes: "Small, star, star......"
Yikes! Mingyu, are you calling me? Qin Xingyi heard the whispering of the person who was in her heart, and couldn't help but stretch out her hand to the empty sky outside the window, wanting to hold the phantom she liked.
But how could the illusion of the void be retained? Qin Xingyi stretched out his hands and threw himself into the air, and the wonderful phantom seemed to dissipate with the wind, and he couldn't help but let out a long cry of desolation: "Mingyu-"
Qin Xingyi had a bad premonition, Xuanyuan Mingyu was in dire straits, if he didn't save him at this moment, he would miss the opportunity, then I am afraid that even if he exhausts his life in the future, he will not be able to make up for this opportunity.
You can't stand here with your hands tied! You can't do nothing! The cowardly character does not belong to oneself, and everything needs to be actively fought for and grasped in time!
Qin Xingyi made a decision and opened the door, but saw the senior brother Zeng Hao standing outside the door, and was slightly stunned.
Zeng Hao has been standing outside the door of the little junior sister for a long time.
The west wind building is surrounded by the nearby emerald green pines and cypresses, the emerald vines climb all over the hillside, the flowers and trees are sparse, the blue waves are stacked, the scenery is pleasant, and the mountains in the distance are particularly beautiful in the early morning glow.
Zeng Hao has no intention of enjoying the beautiful scenery around him, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, he can't withstand the overwhelmed haze, the little junior sister really makes herself feel uneasy! She brought her back after she got drunk, and when she woke up, would she leave the Zephyr House again?
There are some things that you don't have a chance to say if you don't say them! If you don't confess something on your mind, you will regret it for the rest of your life! Zeng Hao finally understood this, and he didn't understand it until after the little junior sister left last night, and it wasn't too late to understand, because the little junior sister hadn't gone far yet.
Zeng Hao carried the drunken little junior sister back, and the first thing he wanted to say to her was: Little junior sister, don't go, I want you to be my closest person, and we will never be separated for the rest of our lives.
However, Zeng Hao is young and thin-skinned after all, and he is embarrassed to say it late at night, not to mention that the little junior sister is drunk, and it is in vain to say it herself, so it is better to wait for dawn.
Zeng Hao wanted to openly confess his thoughts to the little junior sister, so he solemnly changed into a light blue new dress, and walked to the front of the bronze mirror in the lobby to take a closer look, for fear that he would show some flaws in front of the little junior sister.
The figure in the bronze mirror has a good figure, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a dignified appearance, Zeng Hao is very satisfied, washes his face with water with both hands, and waits at the door of the little junior sister's house.
Zeng Hao is outstanding among the disciples of Xifeng Building, and he is also bold in making decisions, but he is not good at expressing his personal feelings, and if a big man confesses to a girl and behaves cowardly, he feels unreasonable.
Zeng Hao waited patiently, and finally saw the little junior sister open the door and look at him in a daze, and suddenly he was embarrassed, a few fingers subconsciously twisted the corners of the light blue shirt he was wearing, and asked:
"Senior sister, did you wake up? Most people get a headache when they're drunk, don't you feel uncomfortable? ”
"I'm fine, Senior Brother Xie rescued me last night." Qin Xingyi formally thanked her, lowered her head and lowered her eyes, and gathered all the ups and downs of her thoughts.
Zeng Hao tried his best to put on a leisurely and complacent appearance, and said casually: "Senior sister, I want to talk to you about a serious matter. ”
Qin Xingyi smiled lightly, the senior brother has always been serious when talking to himself, why not talk about things properly? She knew that the senior brother was currently picking up the main beam in the West Wind Building, and it was not easy to overwork, so she understood his position and approach very well, and excused herself:
"Senior brother, is there anything you can talk about later? I have something very important to do right now. ”
Zeng Hao looked at the soft face of the little junior sister, and never imagined that she would love someone so firmly and resolutely at a young age, and that person was just a humble little proton, an unlucky ghost who would die at any time, what was there to do for him?
"Senior sister, do you still want to save him?"
"Yes, he's waiting for me to save him!" Qin Xingyi replied calmly, thinking that Xuanyuan Mingyu was struggling on the verge of death, it was his bounden duty to save him, probably destined by God, right?
"Can you save him alone? You almost got into it yourself last night, don't forget that there are many thugs in the proton hall, and Hu Feng is also a powerful character. Moreover, I guess they went to the Prime Minister's Mansion today. Prime Minister Hu Cheng's birthday today must be well defended inside and out. ”
"I'm not going to back down!" Qin Xingyi only had this one sentence.
Zeng Hao usually thinks that he is patient and resourceful, and he is not impulsive and aggressive, but today he can't suppress the restlessness in his heart, whether he is jealous or jealous, he clenched his fists and snorted twice, wanting to say a few cruel words, but he was still hesitating.
Qin Xingyi's eyes were keen, if he had noticed the abnormality of the senior brother in normal times, but today his mind was disordered, and he only wanted to ask the senior brother for help, and said frankly:
"Senior brother, I have been in Xifeng Tower for ten years, and in the past ten years, I have almost been as calm as water, and every day I focus on practicing martial arts, and my heart is as calm as water.
However, I don't want to spend my whole life like this, I want to spend another ten years with him, whether bitter or sweet, with him.
If he is destined to have a short life, then, he gives birth to me, he dies and I die, and my life is not wasted, and it can be regarded as complete. Big brother, you're going to help me, aren't you? ”
Zeng Hao didn't expect the little junior sister to say such miserable words, if he lost the little junior sister, would he also fall into a place of no return? His throat choked, and he replied in a lost voice: "Stupid, of course senior brother will help you!" ”
