Chapter 207: Returning to the Dynasty (9)
207. Return to the Dynasty (9)
Gongsun Shi didn't want to listen anymore, family, he suddenly laughed at himself.
"You can't imagine how nice my parents are to me? Although I was not their own child, they never looked down on me, and my brother was my own brother. I remember when I was a child, I was always restless, and I liked to fight with people, and every time my brother took care of it for me, such people can be regarded as family! So why should I give up such a good family instead of acknowledging the person who once abandoned me? If it were you, would it? β
Xuanyuan Lei fell silent, because he had never experienced such a thing, since he was a child in the Xuanyuan family, what he faced was the endless competition between his peers, every day in addition to practicing martial arts is to learn the Confucianism taught by Mr. Xi, because it is what his grandfather likes, so even if he doesn't like him, he has to learn.
I remember that when I was a child, I was injured because of martial arts, and my mother hugged him when she came to see him, but he was reprimanded by his father, saying that this would only make him weak, so he never felt the love of his parents, and the brothers were even more discordant.
In fact, he is very envious of Gongsun Shi, he can not grow up in the Xuanyuan family, but he can still become so good, in his opinion, Gongsun Shi's ability is already on par with Wei Ling, but Gongsun Shi is not as good as Wei Ling, he has no family burden, so he doesn't have to fight for anything.
"I don't know much about your adoptive parents, I can say that I don't know at all, but I know grandpa very well, if you have been tough and unwilling to recognize your ancestors, then the first person grandpa has to deal with will be your adoptive parents, have you ever thought that if grandpa he ......"
Gongsun Shi's whole body suddenly stiffened, his eyes did not look at Xuanyuan Lei, but looked at the scenery outside the door, until a little red face suddenly flashed in front of him, and Gongsun Shi was shocked.
"If he wants me to recognize my ancestors and return to my ancestors, then let him come to me directly, and I will consider whether he is qualified to be my family!" Not nonsense, Gongsun Shi left directly, he did not stay in the village, but returned directly to the camp of the Wei family, Wei Ling was not there, as a deputy general, he needed to lead the army.
Changing into a suit of armor and shuttling through the army, Gongsun Shi at this time had a cold breath all over his body, and he seemed to be a lurking wolf, as long as he wanted, he would become the king of this army.
On the tall building of the villa, the person who has been watching the figure of Gongsun Shi is full of complexity at this moment, once he thought that the little baby was the source of all hatred, and if he abandoned him, then the hatred also collapsed, but now it seems that it has become the fuse of new hatred.
"He turned out to be exactly the same as Qi'er, hehe, is this a mockery of me? Or is God punishing me? The old man sitting in a wooden wheelchair was holding his unconscious knees tightly with both hands at the moment, and a serious illness three years ago made his lower body unconscious, and from that moment on, this tough guy who had dominated the world for decades was completely decadent.
"Lei'er, this is your uncle complaining about me, complaining that I have abandoned his own flesh and blood, and I don't recognize him, I have no shame to go down to see your grandmother and uncle......"
Recently, this sentence has always been on his lips, and Xuanyuan Lei actually doesn't have much affection for this grandfather, because he always has a calm face, and he has hardly smiled at himself since he was a child. Father Xuanyuan Qin once said that the old man's favorite heir has always been Xuanyuan Qi, and he has loved him since he was a child, that is because Xuanyuan Qi's current Wei family is the old man's favorite, although Wei is just a concubine, but soon after giving birth to Xuanyuan Qi, he was injured on the throne of his wife, which is the biggest threat to Xuanyuan Qin.
Therefore, since he was a child, Xuanyuan Qin has been very strict with Xuanyuan Lei, in order to hope that Xuanyuan Lei can become the outstanding one in the Xuanyuan family, and he hopes that Xuanyuan Lei can become the future head of the Xuanyuan family, as he wishes, Xuanyuan Lei has become the head of the family, but in the eyes of his grandfather, the most suitable person seems to be Xuanyuan Qi.
"You also heard what he said just now, he didn't want to go back to Xuanyuan's house, because...... There is no family there......" Xuanyuan Lei turned around and left the tall building, and instructed his subordinates to take good care of the old man, then he raised his feet and came to the room where Huo Mei was resting, and when he pushed the door in, he saw Wei Ling rubbing Huo Mei's calves, and Huo Mei was leaning on the bed, looking at the codex in his hand.
Xuanyuan Lei came in, Wei Ling frowned, stretched out his hand to hold Huo Mei up, and when he saw that she wanted to get out of bed, he squatted down and personally put on her cloth shoes, carefully helped her up, and reached out to clasp her waist very naturally, this qiΔ looked so natural, and it was so dazzling.
"Master Xuanyuan, thank you for taking care of Mei'er these two days!" Xuanyuan Lei sneered, walked up to Huo Mei, and held Huo Mei's little hand unscrupulously.
"Taking care of her is something I am willing to do, as long as she is willing, I can give her any qiΔ in my hand." Looking at Huo Mei's somewhat embarrassed little face, Xuanyuan Lei pinched her wrist and reluctantly let go.
This qiΔ Huomei didn't struggle, just looked at Xuanyuan Lei in a daze, some fragments of memories shook in his mind, and then there was a wave of dizziness and pain.
"Mer!" Wei Ling hugged Huo Mei's crumbling body and looked up at Xuanyuan Lei fiercely. "Xuanyuan Lei, you have to force her like this, don't you? Do you have to drive her crazy to be satisfied? β
Putting down Huo Mei Wei Ling as if he was about to fight with Xuanyuan Lei, Huo Mei raised his hand and grabbed his sleeve, stopping his impulse.
"Ah Ling, I'm fine! Don't do that! β
Wei Ling couldn't stay here any longer, so he simply picked up the cloak next to him and wrapped Huo Mei, so that Hou Daheng picked up Huo Mei and prepared to leave, Xuanyuan Lei looked at Wei Ling, who was already angry, with some annoyance, and kept it in a low voice.
"Okay, I know it's wrong, I won't do this to her in the future! Don't you ...... Is it really good to take him away like this? As far as I know, your military doctor is missing, and Mr. Xiahou has not returned from going to the south in the past few days, so no one can guarantee her safety except me! β
Huo Mei heard it in a fog, but she understood one of the sentences. "Lord Song is missing? When did this happen? β
Wei Ling's eyes flickered, he didn't want Huo Mei to know about it, but ...... When Huo Mei saw his expression, he was even more worried.
"Ah Ling, don't hide it from me!"
"Mr. Song was taken away by Liu Jiewei...... He was poisoned...... "Huo Mei's hands clenched, and his brows furrowed.
"Shadows!" Hearing Khomey's call, someone in the shadows suddenly appeared.
"Master!"
Wei Ling was nothing to this person who suddenly appeared, but Xuanyuan Lei looked at the shadow carefully for a long time.
"Where is Lord Song now?"
"Life and death are uncertain! Mr. Xiahou has already rushed to the southern sect to seek medical treatment, and he may not be able to ask for an antidote, and Mr. Xiahou is not sure ......"
Huo Mei pondered for a moment, then untied the black jade wolf card from his neck and handed it to Shadow.
"Take this thing and hand it over to the head of the Southern Sect Xue, and tell him that this pavilion is willing to exchange this thing for the poisonous Qiangu of the Southern Sect!" Xuanyuan Lei looked at what Huo Mei handed out, and the whole person was shocked.
"Xiaomei, you actually want to use the entire Moxiang Pavilion to exchange for a military doctor? This...... Is it worth it? β
"Why isn't it worth it?" Huo Mei asked rhetorically, feeling no pity for the wolf card. "Go at once, do as I say, and remember, you are not allowed to tell anyone but you about this!"
"Subordinates obey!" The shadow disappeared in an instant, and Wei Ling stepped forward to hold Huo Mei in his arms and comforted him softly.
"Mei'er, Lord Song is such a good person, God will definitely have mercy on him, and will not let him ...... like this" Wei Ling couldn't go on with the words later, these days he sent a lot of people to find Song Qing's traces, but there was no clue, although Song Qing came to the Wei family to repay his kindness, but in Wei Ling's eyes, this elder who grew up with him was more like Wei Ling's relatives.
When leaving the villa, Xuanyuan Lei sent Huo Mei to the door and watched her get into the carriage in person, but before getting into the car, Xuanyuan Lei whispered a word in Huo Mei's ear.
"One day you want to regain your memory, remember to come to me!"
On the carriage back to the city, Huo Mei fell into deep thought, and seeing that she didn't speak, Xiaohong, who was sitting on the side, was a little anxious.
"Master!"
"Something?" Huo Mei didn't look at Xiaohong, but Xiaohong didn't dare to ask what was in her heart.
Seeing that Xiaohong didn't dare to speak, Huo Mei smiled. "When did you become so shy? Or, Gongsun Shi is going to marry you, so you don't dare to talk to me? β
What Xiaohong wanted to ask was indeed related to Gongsun Shi, but she didn't expect Huo Mei to guess it.
"You want to ask about Gongsun Shi's life history? Or is it his relationship with the Xuanyuan family? Xiaohong didn't dare to look at Huo Mei, lowered her head and grabbed the hem of her clothes tightly with her little hands, as if she was very entangled.
"If I sue you that Gongsun Shi is indeed not surnamed Gongsun, but surnamed Xuanyuan, what are you going to do?" Xiaohong raised her head suddenly, looked at Huo Mei with some horror, her eyes were also red, and she kept trying to suppress the churning in her heart...... Hatred......
"Xiaohong, your hatred with the Xuanyuan clan, Mr. Xiahou has told me a little, I don't know much about the specifics, but about the relationship between Gongsun Shi and the Xuanyuan clan, as you think, he is indeed a descendant of the Xuanyuan clan, not only that, but he is also the child of Xuanyuan Honglie's favorite youngest son Xuanyuan Qi! His mother died in childbirth and his father was hunted down by assassins, so he was orphaned at birth and abandoned by his grandfather on a snowy night! β
"He was adopted by the Gongsun couple who passed by by chance, named Gongsun Shi, in the Gongsun family, his childhood was very complete, there were parents who loved him, and there were brothers who loved him, so although he was discarded at birth, he was a blessing in disguise, and he could grow up carefree in an ordinary family!"
Xiaohong didn't expect Gongsun Shi's life experience to be so pitiful, so her face was full of distress, but Huo Mei's face became even stricter.
"Xuanyuan Liehong is the mastermind of the Zong clan's annihilation tragedy, but Xuanyuan Qi died at the hands of your father Zong Weihan!" Looking at Xiaohong's incredulous face, Huo Mei sighed deeply.
"This may be a bad fate, but ...... If you can, I hope you can let go of your hatred, just think about each other, and live well! It's a pity that ......" Huo Mei didn't say the next words, Xiaohong also understood, a bitter smile hung on her lips, she suddenly hid her face and cried bitterly, Huo Mei looked distressed, so she turned around and hugged her into her arms.
"That was a long time ago, and your parents died for the good of the family! So, no one is a beneficiary, you are all victims! Xiaohong, can you let go of those hatreds? β
Xiaohong couldn't speak, but shook her head, which could only make Huo Mei sigh. "Your father killed Xuanyuan Qi, so he brought about the destruction of the Zong clan, and in order to avenge his son, Xuanyuan Honglie killed all the men within the five clans of the Zong clan, just to make the Zong clan cut off their children and grandchildren! It's hard to tell who's right and who's wrong, but I don't think there's a winner! β
Xiaohong's mood was chaotic all of a sudden, and Huo Mei knew that she needed time to think about the current situation, so she intended to let him leave her side for a while, but Xiaohong refused.
"Master, I will consider what you say, and please don't drive me away, master, I want to figure out for myself, what my heart thinks." Huo Mei nodded and smiled, wiped the tears on Xiaohong's face with his sleeve, when Wei Ling opened the curtain and came in, Huo Mei and Xiaohong were still hugging each other, seeing this scene Wei Ling was a little surprised, but soon his expression returned to normal.
"My subordinates will go out and get you some hot tea, and I will trouble the general to take care of my master!" Xiaohong got out of the carriage quite embarrassed, and as soon as she raised her head, she met Gongsun Shi's gaze, Xiaohong hurriedly lowered her head, and before Gongsun Shi could ask, Xiaohong's figure disappeared, which made Gongsun Shi quite surprised.
Ten miles away from Chang'an City, Liu Xun led hundreds of officials to wait there, in the ten-mile long pavilion, Liu Xun was silently drinking tea, the emperor's face was not very good-looking, and Yan SΓΉ did not have a trace of smile, which made the ministers guess his mood at the moment, and at the same time guess the emperor's attitude towards Wei Ling.
Although the newspaper said that Wei Ling's military exploits were outstanding, they all knew that Wei Ling was Chang Hui's apprentice, and it seemed that he was promoted by his own master, so for a general who was less than twenty years old, the attitude of the hundred officials was obviously a little perfunctory.
But when Wei Ling bore the brunt of it, riding a high-headed horse and wearing silver armor, the officials were still impressed by Wei Ling's murderous aura, but the elder Huo Guang saw the figure of the former general Wei Qing on Wei Ling's body, and for the first time Huo Guang had an appreciative look in Wei Ling's eyes.
Wei Ling stopped at a distance of about a mile from the ten-mile long pavilion, dismounted and adjusted the armor on his body, and then walked to the foot of the long pavilion and knelt down on one knee to salute Liu Xun.
"Weichen Wei Ling see my emperor's majesty! Weichen was ordered by Lord Chang Hui to escort more than 30,000 pieces of property captured by the Xiongnu, 12,000 horses, and 3,000 slaves. Weichen lived up to the trust, and finally escorted his belongings back to Chang'an safely, and asked His Majesty to inspect it! β
Listening to Wei Ling talking about the amount of property, Liu Xun was overjoyed, no one knew that what he lacked most now was money, and it happened that Wei Ling sent it to him.
"Wei Aiqing doesn't have to be polite, you have traveled thousands of miles to escort these things back to Beijing, you must be very tired after a long journey along the way, I will ask Lord Huo to count the things, as for General Wei, after a short rest, I will wait for you in the Xuanshi Palace!"
"Thank you, Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!" (To be continued.) )
