Chapter 121: Getting to the bottom of it

The Honey Eagle suddenly fell from the air like a stone to the ground, and he realized that winning the battle was to win with the sympathy of the stone.

Stone didn't look back at the Bee Hawk, he was so absorbed in his new friend that he couldn't help himself.

In the days that followed, the parents who were looking for the roe deer filled the empty hearts of the stones.

Mrs. Li sent two servants to follow the stone into the mountain.

Despite its reluctance, the bee hawk took on the main responsibility for protecting the stone.

Although Mrs. Li was worried about the safety of the stone, she felt that it might be much better for the stone than to stay at home in despair.

The hard work paid off, and after half a month, the roe deer finally saw its parents.

The moment it ran to them, the moment tears fell from its mother's big beautiful eyes, the stone also released its pain.

Those eyes were always on the heart of the stone.

What a pair of eyes that are!

They are not only a pair of mother's eyes, but they also tell the world that her children are all she has.

And what about the Mother of Stones?

After saying goodbye to Mrs. Li that morning, neither he nor Mrs. Li mentioned the matter again.

He wanted to stay away, he wanted to keep these things out of the door, so that their claws would not hurt him and hurt this family.

But when he had a question in his heart, how could he not look for an answer?

These questions were all about his mother.

Mrs. Li simply told him that there was no room for his mother in the palace.

What the hell is going on? Why can't there be room for his mother in the palace? Also How did his mother die? Could it have something to do with him?

He hoped that his mother's death had something to do with him, but he didn't want it to have anything to do with him.

If her mother's death has something to do with herself, then at least it proves that she cares a little bit about herself, right?

The stone became silent and silent.

He seemed to be concentrating on one thing, thinking about it when he was eating, thinking about it when he was walking, and even thinking about it when he was sleeping.

He wouldn't give him a second glance but Mrs. Li's eyes.

He wanted to continue to ask Mrs. Li questions, but often gave up halfway.

Those doubts were like cancers, and he didn't want Mrs. Li to see their ugly appearances again.

Spring poked out half of her head. It knew that everyone was eagerly awaiting its arrival, so it had to hide mischievously, refusing to show up until the last minute.

The stone found a way out of his doubts. Maybe it's a dead end, maybe it's a turning point in his life.

He came to the palace.

Yaoyue Palace was much more deserted than before.

After the death of Queen Ma, the power of Concubine Shu, who was good friends with Queen Ma, in the palace was getting worse day by day.

The number of palace maids serving has decreased by nearly half, and the number of ornaments decorated is decreasing day by day. No one cleared the thick ash on the eaves, and no one filled the discolored columns.

The stone didn't notice this, and there was no room for anything else in his heart.

"Forgive Niangniang, the stone is for you!"

Concubine Shu sat in front of the bookcase and practiced calligraphy, but she was never satisfied with the last stroke of the "Han" character she wrote.

"Stone!" Concubine Shu's face was full of surprise, "Why do you have time to come and see Shu Niangniang?" ”

She stood up, walked over to the stone, and took his hand.

The tears of the stone suddenly fell down, and now only Concubine Shu was the only one in this palace who would treat him so closely.

"What's wrong? Something that doesn't go your way? Concubine Shu took out a silk handkerchief and gently wiped away her tears from the stone.

"Xiaoyun, hurry up and make a pot of Longjing tea!" Concubine Shu commanded.

"Stone drink some tea and lift the spirits. Sit down and tell Shu Niangniang what happened? ”

Xiaoyun walked into the house and whispered embarrassedly: "Niangniang, Longjing tea is finished drinking......

"Why don't you get it?"

"I went to get it, but I ......"

"Forget it, these guys who see the wind and rudder! Brew whatever tea you have! ”

"Yes, sis!"

"Stones, make you smile. Alas, since the death of Queen Ma, these people don't take this palace seriously. Concubine Shu shook her head and laughed at herself.

There wasn't much sadness and indignation on her face, as if she was just watching the cold world as a farce.

"Forgive Niangniang, they bullied you?" The stone woke up like a dream, and the injustice that happened to others finally knocked his closed head open.

"Oh, it's a trifle, that's how it is in the palace. Stones, when you grow up, you will understand that the whole world is like this, the survival of the fittest, the jungle eats the strong. ”

"I've grown up."

"Oh, so you're troubled too, aren't you? Tell Shu Niangniang, what happened? Concubine Shu's eyes flashed with the same concern as Queen Ma, but there was a mysterious abyss behind this gaze.

"Forgive Niangniang, you ...... Know?? Concubine? Stone quickly lowered his head, fearing that his hard-earned courage would flee under the gaze of Concubine Shu.

“?? Imperial concubine? Concubine Shu exclaimed, "Why did you ask about her?" ”

"I ......," Shi Shi couldn't say, he couldn't say the word "mother", "I want to know about her." ”

Concubine Shu held the stone's hand and looked at his lowered eyes, embarrassed face, and gently trembling lips.

For a long time, she smiled as if a detective had discovered the mystery: "Stone, I've heard of it??" Concubine, what do you want to know about her? ”

"How did she die?" Stone cramped his question.

Concubine Shu stood up and walked to the window.

The warm spring light sprinkled on her face, and she took a deep breath: "She committed suicide by jumping off a cliff with a baby in her arms." ”

The stone's body twitched, and he felt his feet dangling in the air: "Baby? Her children? ”

He asked subconsciously, his brain still for a moment.

"Yes, her son who has just been born for a few days." Concubine Shu's tone was sad and poignant.

"Why?" Stone threw away all embarrassment, he just wanted answers.

If necessary, he can admit ?? The concubine is her own biological mother.

Concubine Shu let out a long sigh, as if she had exhausted the vicissitudes of the world. She sympathized with that woman and every woman who stayed by Zhu Yuanzhang's side.

"Because her child is a hoodoo."

"Hoodoo? How can a baby be hoodoo? "The stone fell into the ice cellar.

"This baby is different from ordinary people, he has a pair of double eyes."

"Heavy pupils? One eye has two pupils! ”

"Yes." Concubine Shu turned around and saw surprise, unease, anger, and two pupils in Shi's clear eyes.

The heavy pupils of the stone are very special, he never knew that he was a double pupil, he never saw himself in the mirror as a double pupil.

His heavy pupils are not ostentatious, and he usually never appears, and it will only appear when the master is angry and excited.

When the stone was just born, with the first loud cry, his heavy eyes looked at the world curiously.

Zhu Yuanzhang had murderous intentions towards him, a disaster star.

When the stone was angered by Shi Shazhu, his eyes that looked at the pottery bowl showed heavy pupils.

Shi Shazhu discovered a genius for juggling.

At this moment, his heavy pupils reappeared, and Concubine Shu knew the identity of the stone, and knew that he was with ?? The relationship between concubines.

"Heavy Hitomi is guilty? Cangjie, Yu Shun, and Xiang Yu are all heroes, why is this baby a bad thing? "The nails of the stone sink into the wooden couch.

"Qin Tianjian is what he says, and the emperor would rather believe in Warlock Qi's words than trust his relatives."

"How can Qin Tianjian bear to say that a newborn baby is a hoodoo thing?"

"I think it's strange, I'm afraid there's something unpleasant. The intrigue in this palace can't be counted, and it's everywhere. ”

Concubine Shu brought the coarse tea brewed by Xiaoyun to the stone: "Stone, take a sip of tea, don't worry." If you want to defeat your opponent, you must not be impatient and think long-term. ”

She was speaking to the stone as if to herself.

"Shu Niangniang, did you guess?" The stone fluttered and knelt in front of Concubine Shu.

"Silly child, forgive Niangniang for feeling sorry for you! If you need to be forgiven, I will definitely try my best to help you. ”

Concubine Shu held the face of the stone, and her eyes were as kind as Queen Ma.

"Thank you, Niangniang!" The stone threw itself on Concubine Shu's knee and wailed.

The restrained tears in front of Mrs. Li opened at this moment, drowning the stones.

"Forgive Niangniang, I have a lot of questions in my heart." Choking back tears, the stone's eyes were dull.

"Want to know what? I'll tell you everything I know. ”

“?? The concubine jumped off the cliff with a baby in her arms, why did she do that? Who is that baby? ”

"Everyone in the palace said that the baby was you, but they didn't expect you to be alive." Concubine Shu stood up and paced around the room with her chin in her right hand.

Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, and she hurriedly walked to the bookcase, picked up the brush, and wrote down two words: "Make a play".

"Drama? What does this mean? ”

"I speculate,?? The concubine jumped off the cliff with a baby in her arms, just for a show. She wants everyone to think you're dead, and that's the only way to save your life. ”

The stone took two steps back, and his body hit the windowsill.

Sparrows, leisurely basking in the sun on the windowsill, fled in panic.

Stone didn't expect that his biological mother, whom he hated so much, would sacrifice her life for him.

Although this was just Concubine Shu's speculation, he subconsciously felt that this was the truth.

That's logical.

How could his mother be a person who abandoned her own child?

He was pitiful enough, his father was a heinous king, who held the power of life and death over everyone, and executing his own child was as simple as pinching an ant to death.

He firmly believed that Heaven would not give him another mother who was equally cruel.

Having tasted a little bit of luck, Stone remembered what he had done these days, and regretted his recklessness and ignorance.

How could he hate his mother to the bone, how could he pray to Heaven to send her soul to the eighteen layers of hell, how could he be ashamed of being in her belly for ten months?

His body lost its support and slowly slid down the wall, like a tree that had been uprooted.
