Chapter 19: Farewell

Towering palace walls, a sea of fire. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Lin Wan knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times in the distance.

"Niangniang's kindness for many years, Wan'er can't repay it, I hope to keep the Yang family's bloodline, Niangniang has knowledge under the spring, and she should be able to go well."

Her voice trembled slightly, but every word was loud. The firelight in the sky stretched her figure obliquely, standing majestically like a palace wall.

Zige rode his horse and galloped down the West Street, and some clearer and clearer pictures kept coming to his mind. The disaster at home that night was like a fuse hidden in memory, waiting for an open flame to be lit to break the doubts that had hung in my heart for all these years.

The cause of family feuds, childhood memories, and true prophecies...... She has known too many things this month, but they are all like flowers in a fog and unpredictable.

On such a day, he entered the house with enthusiasm, obviously planned carefully and arranged to a certain extent, but it seemed that the bamboo basket was empty. Although she helped Cui Qiao and helped Hongshang enter the Chengjiang royal palace smoothly, since she knew that Qizhen Mirror was not in the Zhao Mansion, all this was useless.

If Niang already knew about this from Mu Lixuan, why did she send herself and Hongshang to investigate? Knowing that this trip was futile, why bother Mu Lixuan to help him during the banquet? Why did she lie to him and say that she was looking for him to explain everything?

Looking back and looking back, when Zige insisted on going to the banquet on behalf of her mother in order to share her worries, her mother uncharacteristically did not obstruct her, and even did not reproach her for asking for the invitation of the king of Chengjiang without authorization, but just followed her nonsense. Such an imprudent attitude is far from the style of a mother.

Thinking about it at this time, Zige is puzzled everywhere.

Aunt Zhao led the sisters to set up a stage on South Street tonight, and she and Hongshang were elsewhere, pinching her fingers to calculate, at this moment, only Niang and a few miscellaneous grandmothers were left in the workshop, if the music workshop was as Mu Lijun said, the consequences would be even more unimaginable.

"Walking on the water--walking on the water-"

In the distance, she heard the rapid sound of bangs, and the old man shouted hoarsely. A few puffs of smoke rose and mingled into the night breeze.

Zige was in a hurry, but there was a sharp burning pain in her right wrist holding the reins, which made her gasp and tremble. She looked down at her twitching right hand, only to see that the birthmark glowed eerily red in the night.

Mu Lixuan had been following closely, and at this moment, he rode his horse to her side.

"I ...... What's going on? Zige popped out a few words from between his constricted teeth.

"This is the seal that Master Lin put on you, and it is on the verge of breaking at this time." Mu Lixuan said softly, "I'm afraid Master Lin is ...... The strength is gone. ”

"Impossible!"

Ignoring the matter of the seal, Zige held the horsewhip in his left hand and waved and fell without hesitation. The crotch mount was in pain and galloped away.

When the two finally arrived on the street, the music square was wrapped in flames, and they could only vaguely distinguish the carved railings, red bricks and green tiles. The scarlet tongue of fire licked the four handsome willow bodies on the plaque, "Spring Breeze Ten Miles". Although the nearby neighbors and city patrol guards have brought sand and water to save them, they are still a drop in the bucket after all.

The birthmark on Zige's right hand had turned into a throbbing pain, and she inhaled lightly and dismounted.

"Ge'er!"

A shrill female voice rang out suddenly. Aunt Zhao and a few sisters came in the dust. She has always been calm and calm, but there is a look of horror in her eyes.

"Your mother...... Lin Wan, but she is still inside? ”

There was a palpable tremor in her voice. Zige shook his head stiffly, and when he looked back again, he vaguely heard the sound of Yaoqin in the room.

"Mother...... Mother! ”

When Zige heard this, his spirit was shocked, and he was about to pull out his legs and walk towards the sea of fire, but was stopped by Mu Lixuan.

"Don't act recklessly." He frowned slightly and looked at her, "Is there a back door here?" I can take you in. ”

Zige nodded busily and led him onto the path by the music square, where there was a side door that led to the backyard. It's just that as far as the eye can see at this time, there is a sea of fire.

"Nanzhao Mu still has a skill, which is witchcraft. You're on my heels. ”

Mu Lixuan explained succinctly, Zige stood beside him, and felt an invisible wind pouring out from both sides, cold and biting. He silently recited some unknown words, and his other hand gently rested on Zige's shoulder, leading her forward.

They entered through the side door and followed the source of the sound. The fire is like Shura Hell, full of familiar scenes, all of which are devastated. But following him, Zige felt like watching the fire from the other side. The cold wind always followed me, blocking and dissolving the heat of the flames.

When I walked to the bamboo forest behind the house, the sound of the piano was no longer audible. The spring water reflected the fire in the pavilion, and it was shockingly red. There was a delirious woman in Tsing Yi lying on the side of the water, and it was Lin Wan.

"Mother!" Zige hurriedly helped her up and leaned on herself. Lin Wan's face was pale, and his lips were bloodless, but he exhaled intermittently, smelling like a bellows.

"Ge'er......" The corners of Lin Wan's lips and mouth twitched, and her voice was like a gossamer, "Don't blame the ...... girl"

"Mother...... Don't be in a hurry to speak, Ge'er will save you out. ”

Zige reached out and hugged her tightly, as if trying to transfer the warmth of her body to her gradually cold torso. Her wrist was in terrible pain, but now she could only grit her teeth and hold on.

"Mother when you were young...... added a memory seal for you, afraid that with your temperament back then, you would do stupid things. Lin Wanqiang held his last breath and said, "As soon as my mother goes, the seal will be broken." If you want to live your life, ...... You can choose to discard that memory. ”

"Mother, I'd rather not remember the past or understand any family feuds, but I need you to accompany me." Two clear tears flowed down Zige's cheeks, "I haven't finished yet, and you still promised to teach me how to coil that complicated bun by hand......"

"Young...... The revenge has not been avenged, and the mother is really worthy of the heroic spirit of the ancestors......" A trace of blood oozed from the corner of her mouth, and her face was still pale, "Sister Lin Lan wants you to live this life and be a mother...... May you live up to this life. ”

"Mother...... The song will remember. Zige wanted to wipe away the dazzling blood with his sleeve, but he wiped more and more.

"Xuan'er...... Songs. Lin Wan's pale hand grabbed Mu Lixuan's hand, and trembling to find Zige's hand, her eyes were no longer focused.

"Master Lin, don't worry, Lixuan will definitely take good care of Ge'er." Mu Lixuan said in a low voice, his voice vaguely hoarse.

"Mother...... I'm here. Zige gently held her hand and felt her move slightly, "Who did this?" ”

"Young...... All causes...... Fang Shi ......" word by word, her voice gradually lowered, her hand grabbed a handful in the air indiscriminately, and then hung down softly.

"Zeng ......"

She exhaled softly, as if sighing, but it was the last goodbye.

"Mother......!"

Zige hugged the lifeless body in her arms tightly, crying bitterly, Mu Lixuan knelt silently beside her, and protected her with luck. The heat wave surged on all sides, enveloping the three of them, but she didn't care about it, crying so much that her liver and intestines were broken.

Flying flowers are painted under the spring tree, the river is singing in the hot summer, the moon is worshipping and dancing in the courtyard in the autumn, and the spring sword is in front of the plum in the cold winter.

Although Lin Wan was not her biological mother, she gave her a full ten years of worry-free childhood. She taught Zige a talent, and passed on her way of life and the foundation of her life. She didn't know what she was like in Beijing in the past, but in the spring breeze ten miles, she understood what it meant to be leisurely. The family is safe, three or two best friends, a skill, what more can a husband ask for?

It's just that now that his dream has been shattered, the things he knows in his life have changed dramatically, and he is also separated from his relatives, which makes it difficult for Zige to accept it for a while.

Not to mention...... Today is her birthday.

"During the five-year period, the Mid-Autumn Festival descended to women. The world can be prosperous...... ...... the world."

She said hoarsely. Is this sixteen-character prophecy a joke or a promise she hasn't kept?

When her tears were about to dry, she realized that her fingers were deep in the flesh, and blood was running down her fingers, but she did not feel pain, but she was numb. The blood-colored birthmark on the body had slowly faded away at this moment, leaving only a shallow outline.

"The Yang family is all because of the Fang family...... The blood feud of the Yang clan is all because of the Fang clan's ......"

She muttered in a low voice, raised her right hand, and showed Mu Lixuan.

"You've already decided?"

He looked at Zige, his eyes were half pity, half sadness.

Zige did not speak, but nodded solemnly.

The Yang family has a woman who has just grown up, and everyone in Kyoto knows it.

Once the family died, the relationship was broken, and he strayed into the world for ten years.

Leaning on the door to look back at the green plum and sniff, he shook the swing and slender hand.

Now the Mengposi people are going, cleaning up the mountains and rivers and bringing the moon back.
