Volume 3 The Mountains and Rain and the Wind Fill the Building Chapter 25 Boren
At this time, Zhao Wuyin's faint voice sounded again:
"Twenty-four years ago, you and my father fell in love, which was a great blessing for my father, but since you married Mu Yun, His Majesty the Emperor saw that the more you missed my father, the more he could not feel at ease. Although my father thinks he is a talented person, he also knows very well that he was promoted to the head of the household department in one fell swoop because of you. So he is diligent and doesn't dare to slack off, he just wants to live up to his name, but you have been married to Cangwu Kingdom for less than two or three years, and you have repeatedly sent people to return to China saying that you want to come back, which makes His Majesty the former emperor very troublesome, and I am afraid that you will ruin her major affairs halfway. Father heard that he was worried every day, because he also knew your temperament, if you wanted to come back, maybe you would really find a way to escape back to the blue sea, and then no matter how diligent you were, the emperor would definitely be angry with you. ”
Speaking of this, Zhao Wuyun looked at the tombless tomb in front of him, and suddenly laughed a few times, the laughter was sad, but there were two lines of tears in his eyes.
He shook his head, choked up, and continued: "In order to win your mother's trust, he hurriedly found a family business, in order to prevent future troubles and let your mother let him go. Who knows...... Who knows...... Your mother has moved on to kill...... It just so happened that the household servant at that time was Lu Wenchi, the second son of Lu Xingyuan, who had been coveting the position of Shangshu for a long time, and took the opportunity to blame my father for the blame, accusing him of private measurement and filling his pockets. At that time, my father knew that the big thing was not good, and I wanted to ask for help from the princess of the prison country at that time, and now the Ming Emperor, but she happened to inspect Chuzhou and was not in the court. So in just three days, the emperor broke the case and sentenced him to beheading......"
"No------ I don't believe what you say! You're talking nonsense! ”
Zhu Yuxiao heard this, and a sharp cry pierced the sky, echoing in the empty cemetery.
"Am I talking nonsense? Auntie, think about it, according to your mother's nature, if my father was really guilty of embezzling the treasury, how could he sentence him to be beheaded alone, and Ken Kaien would not have killed my son afterwards? How can after beheading, although a monument is not allowed to be erected, and the family is allowed to be buried in the grave without abandoning the corpse in the wilderness? It's all because she knows in her heart that this is actually an unjust case, and my father's unjust death is just that, how can she kill the heirs again? Zhao Wuyin's every rhetorical question was like a sharp knife piercing Zhu Yuxiao's heart.
At this moment, she already knows better than anyone else in her heart that this is indeed the clearest truth, she knows her mother too well......
When he was young, he fell from a paradise full of happiness to a terrifying hell, although he endured it for a while. But when the team of distant marriages crossed the Hanjiang River, she had already burst into tears and had infinite remorse. If you want to secretly escape back to the blue sea, you have secretly sprung up I don't know how many times, in the letter to the mother brought back by the person who asked him to send fresh fish to the Cangwu country every month, there are also all kinds of crying and pleading, how can the mother who is far away in the blue sea not understand her daughter's thoughts.
Zhu Yuxiao thought of this, and her slender jade hand almost pulled into the old bark that was as hard as iron. If it weren't for his willfulness, how could he have caused his mother to kill. How could an honest person like him embezzle any treasury, although Zhao Wuyin's words were mean, they were reasonable, and his doubts for decades were like seeing the sun through the clouds, and they were all clear in an instant. I used to hate my mother, my sister, and the one I hated the most. If it weren't for this man, how could he have lived up to his youth and ended up in such a field, so for twenty-four years, he has been treated as cold as ice and not sincerely. But now, what he hates the most is himself, it is he who caused Zhao Yu's innocent death, and he is also infamous and unpeaceful after his death.
She took the silk handkerchief handed by Xiaobei, hid her face and cried for a while, before she turned around, looked at Zhao Wuyun's tall body, gave birth to infinite pity, and asked softly: "Pity you child, but you should still be in infancy at the time, how can you know these things?" ”
Zhao Wuyun picked up a handful of soil from the ground and sprinkled it on the grave, and said without looking back: "Auntie, do you know that there is a person buried in this grave, and that is my mother." She knew my father before you did, and my father was a neighbor of her family before the imperial examination, and he had a relationship since he was a child. She had a heart for my father, but my father didn't know it.
After the banquet in the Yufang Palace, she knew that she couldn't compete with you, so she didn't think about it. One day two years later, my father suddenly asked her if she wanted to get married, although my mother was the daughter of a small official in Beijing, but she was also a scholarly family and an official eunuch. She cried with joy when she heard this, because her parents died early, so she hurriedly begged my uncle to find the official media, and my father was in a hurry, and the marriage ended ten days later. She just said that she was happy to fall from the sky and lived happily for a year, but she didn't know that she had paid a lifetime for this year.
A year later, my father felt that the big thing was not good, and he told her everything about it, and in just a few days, the two were separated by yin and yang. My uncle was also moved to Linzhou, where my mother gave birth to me, and in order to avoid people's eyes, I took my uncle's surname Lin. For as long as I can remember, my mother and I have endured the cold eyes of my uncle's family, saying that if we hadn't ruined his future, he would have been moved to that frontier land.
My mother swallowed her anger and cried day and night, depressed all the time, but she died in a few years, and before she died, she told me everything, so I knew everything. She also told me that when I get ahead in the future, I must remember that my surname is Zhao, not Lin. I also asked me to quietly put her bones into my father's grave for burial, saying that she had only been a husband and wife for one year before her death, and she could only continue after her death. Even if there is no word on the stele, he is willing to ...... words, the tears have dried, and only hatred is left on his face.
Zhu Yuxiao looked up at the sky and let the tears slide down her neck.
Mother, are you satisfied now?
Zhao Wuyun sighed, his eyes suddenly became a little gentle, and he smiled bitterly at Zhu Yuxiao: "Actually, my mother also knows that you are the only one in my father's heart until he dies. ”
Zhu Yuxiao's face was already very pale, and when she heard this, she couldn't help but blush a little, and asked, "She really thinks so?" ”
Zhao Wuyun slowly took out an object from his sleeve, it was a finger-long beautifully carved wine bottle, but it was very old, and the silver on it was very mottled, and it could be seen that its owner often played with it.
Zhu Yuxiao finished for a while, "This ...... It's ......"
"This was one of my father's most cherished things, and he said that you handed him this glass of wine that night, and he hid it in his sleeve when he had finished it. This is also the only thing he has stolen in his life, and now it is still returned to its original owner......" After Zhao Wuyun finished speaking, he handed over the wine bottle, and Zhu Yuxiao took it carefully as if he had seen a rare treasure.
Zhao Wuyin's face returned to seriousness, and he said with a straight face: "Auntie, my father is dead, even if I mourn, I still want to cherish it." After speaking, he bowed deeply, and the words changed: "It's just that the dead are gone, and the enemy is still there!" Doesn't my aunt feel unwilling? ”
Zhu Yuxiao was holding the wine bottle and looking at it, her thoughts had drifted back to that night decades ago, and when he said this, she couldn't help but be stunned and asked, "What did you say?" ”
"Although it was the will of His Majesty the Emperor to kill my father, the most hateful was Lu Wenchi, the squire who coveted the position of the head of the household department at that time! This person harbored evil intentions and made something out of nothing, and now he still goes in and out of the court in a grand manner, and enjoys the well-organized household of my father during his lifetime. Heaven is intolerable! I only hate that I have more than enough heart and not enough strength......" Zhao Wuyun's face turned with hatred, and his face was sad again.
Zhu Yuxiao knew what he meant when he heard his voice, and put away his almost uncontrollable mind, and sneered: "If he harbors evil intentions, it is naturally an unforgivable sin, if you want to take the opportunity to make waves, it would be ridiculous to want to pull me into your bureau with such a wine bottle and these words." ”
Zhao Wuyun seemed to anticipate her reaction, and only smiled slightly: "Making waves? My father was innocent all his life, how could I defile the lintel of my Zhao family in the name of revenge. If he, Lu Wenchi, is a righteous man and a gentleman, I will never do those dirty things that frame slander. But if he has a bad record and a lot of evil deeds, I will surely expose his crimes in the light of day, and I will not allow him to confuse the government again. If you don't do anything that harms the country and benefits yourself, and you don't do anything that hurts nature and reason, how can you say that you are making waves? My aunt sat back and watched my father die without a word or a monument, buried here like a lonely ghost, and sat back and watched the traitorous people continue to exist in the court of the blue sea and be blinded by the world......" The words were passionate, and the words were frustrated, but suddenly stopped abruptly, bowed respectfully, and whispered in a choked voice: "...... Then I ask my aunt not to come here to visit my father again in the future, lest he hate the ground, and even if he sees my aunt, he will feel that there is no one to complain to, and it will be even more desolate......"
Zhu Yuxiao's arrogance was first reduced by half by this refuge, and when she heard the last few words, her heart was urged to feel a sourness, and her previous defensive heart was melted into nothing.
Zhao Yu, I have never believed that you are a person who is greedy for wealth and nobility, no matter how true or false what your son said, as long as someone thinks of framing you, I will definitely let this person end miserably to comfort your soul. In my life, I have killed an innocent man for you. Why would you hesitate to kill someone who deserves to die for you now?
She carefully tucked the wine bottle into her sleeve, looked at the grave in front of her, nodded and said, "Zhao Lang, I was the one who lost you, and I went to Cangwu for twenty-four years, but I didn't know that you had been so miserable all your life. If you are wronged, I will not sit idly by. ”
After speaking, he turned to Xiaobei and instructed: "In the future, if something is passed on to you, you can report it to me." It seemed that he was listening to Zhao Wuyun, but he turned his back to him. After speaking, he glanced at the grave again, and hurriedly got into the car and left, leaving Zhao Wuyun standing alone in front of the grave.
Zhao Wuyun watched the few dead grasses on the grave shivering in the cold wind, but he had some doubts in his heart.
With Zhu Yuxiao's assistance, some things are much easier to do. I heard that she had returned to Bihai before, and although she was a colt, she couldn't find any reason to meet her alone. Even if Ling Er was there, it was not good to run to Qinghui Palace recklessly. Zhu Yuxiao and Zhu Yutang don't know the depth of their relationship now, and they are both good at using the art of contemplation, if they are not careful, they will startle the snake. Who would have thought that a god-given opportunity could meet her in front of the grave of "Xiao Qingming", and finally caught her by virtue of her father's affection during his lifetime. With her last few words of explanation, it will definitely be used by me in the future! But how did she know that my father was buried here? If it is a godsend, how can it be such a coincidence......
But this is the way things in the world, but if you have an obsession, even if you are cautious, you just immediately forget about it, because you are willing to believe in your choice. The deeper the obsession, the more cautious the more it resembles a hasty cutscene.
