The icy river water swept Wen Shun's whole person into it suddenly. Wen Shun is like an angry Jiao rolling in the river, screaming with a heart-rending voice, so lonely, so helpless.

The sun rose high, and it dawned the next day. Wen Han woke up leisurely, and the two sisters, Concubine Xiang and Concubine Yu, with anxious expressions, were waiting beside him. At this time, a courtier suddenly broke in and urgently told the queen that her condition was worse. Wen Han screamed miserably like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and hurried to Fengxiang Palace. Concubine Xiang and Concubine Yu were so frightened that they lost their faces and hurried there. When he was young, Wen Han came to Fengxiang Palace in a panic. I saw Cai Yan lying on the bed, his face was as pale as frost, his hands were constantly swinging, and at this time, the name of Wen Shun was calling out from his mouth. Wen Han hurried over and held Cai Yan's hand, which was extremely cold. Wen Han was so anxious that he cried out in pain and shouted urgently.

"Someone!! Where is Shun'er!! Why hasn't he returned!!? ”

When Hua Tuo heard this, he hurriedly bowed and hurriedly reported the incident of last night. It turned out that Hua Tuo was in a panic at that time, and heard the shouts of the courtiers and maidservants, and later heard that Wen Shun left Chang'an City overnight, so he guessed that Wen Shun must have overheard the shocking secret last night. Wen Han's face changed greatly, and he secretly complained in his heart, lest his beloved son would find it difficult to accept it and commit suicide. At this moment, Cai Yan shouted intermittently.

"III . Man... Three... Lang...."

"Yan'er!! Saburo is here, Saburo is here!! You have a good rest, San Lang has not traveled all over the world with you, you must not leave San Lang!! ”

Wen Han cried bitterly, put Cai Yan's hand on his face, tears gushing up, extremely sad. Cai Yan smiled slightly, like a flash in the pan, the beauty of that moment, and said softly.

"III . Man... There is a husband... So, Yan'er... That's enough... Shun.. Er Shang... Young, San Lang Mo.. Wait for it... In the strict... And also.. Don't want to.. Blame... Shun'er..."

"Good! Good! Lone promised Yan'er, Lone everything depends on you, everything depends on you!! ”

Wen Han replied hurriedly, Cai Yan listened, like a satisfied child, the beautiful eyes like flowing stars, as if tired, slowly closed, with that faint smile on her face, as if to tell the world that she was just tired and wanted to sleep well.

"Yan'er!? Yan'er !!! ”

Wen Han trembled, screamed, trembled his hand, touched Cai Yan's face slightly, and then gently approached her nose. In an instant, Wen Han's breath was broken, his eyes were black, and he passed out.

It was about half a year after the peace war between the Western Tang Dynasty and the Great Wei Dynasty. Cai Yan, the queen of the Western Tang Dynasty, died of illness, and Wenhan, the king of the Western Tang Dynasty, lost his beloved wife, was saddened, and fell seriously ill. The whole country in the Western Tang Dynasty was panicked and panicked. And here, Wen Shun, the son of the king of the Western Tang Dynasty, disappeared inexplicably and disappeared without a trace. Wen Han was heartbroken and worried about his son, the more serious his illness became, and all the important ministers of the Western Tang Dynasty rushed back to Chang'an to see him. Prime Minister Pang Tong offered a plan, taught Wenhan to declare the whole country, and chose a day to bury Queen Cai Yan, Wen Shun has always been filial and will return. Wen Han complied, so he endured the pain and repaired the order, announcing all parts of the country, on the fourth day of the ninth month, the queen Cai Yan was buried.

Let's say that Wen Shun heard that shocking secret that day, heartbroken, like a walking corpse, in a remote village near the mountains in Chang'an, wandering like a lonely ghost and a wild ghost, like crazy, drinking and crying day and night, and even more unkempt, with a cloak and a loose hairbeat, he was obviously a personable young man, but he became a complete madman. One day, Wen Shun was drunk, in a restaurant in a village called Wangchen Township. The shopkeeper of the restaurant is kind-hearted, and has been in business for many years, seeing that although Wen Shun is crazy, but he is dressed luxuriously, and at a glance, he knows that he is either rich or expensive, and he must have encountered a great sadness, and he can't withstand the blow, so he will take turns like this. The shopkeeper kindly took Wen Shun in, and he was not afraid that he would have no money to settle the bill, and he was also responsive to Wen Shun's requests, and he had repeatedly persuaded him. But Wen Shun only knew how to cry bitterly, and he didn't want to tell others about the bitterness in his heart, so the people in the township avoided it. Over time, I got used to this crazy person who came out of nowhere.

"Hey! Nowadays, the king of the Western Tang Dynasty has recruited troops on a large scale, and as long as he is not crippled, he has gone to join the army. This young man looks like a non-idle person, so good years, why not join the army, establish a fame, and not waste this man's body! ”

The shopkeeper is over fifty years old, and the villagers call him Lao Niu. Seeing that Wen Shun was still drunk and unconscious, Lao Niu was very sorry and couldn't help sighing. At this time, an old man who was over forty years old came to buy wine, and when he saw Wen Shun, he couldn't help frowning, and said earnestly with Lao Niu.

"Old Niu, why do you still let this madman here, he has scared away many of your regulars for many days. If you don't drive him away, your restaurant will go out of business! ”

"Just pour it. My two little cubs have gone to join the army, the salary in the army is very high, and the little cubs are also filial, and they will ask someone to send some money back during the New Year's holidays. I also want to enjoy the blessings. This young man has no relatives here, if there is a case, how can this be good. Fortunately, the king of the Western Tang Dynasty ruled the country in a way, and the common people such as us can live a good life. If it had been decades ago, this young man would have been robbed of his money by bandits and thrown into the wilderness! ”

"Huh! Lao Niu is just kind-hearted, just that! Now, it's wine money! ”

The old man took the drink and handed the money to the old cow. The old cow smiled, and didn't look at the amount of wine, so he put it in his waist. The old man and the old cow talked for a while, and then left with a song, very leisurely. The old cow was idle, took two bottles of wine and a pot of beef, and sat in front of Wen Shun, but he didn't know if Wen Shun woke up, so he talked to himself and muttered.

"I want to think about it back then, I am also a hero, but unfortunately it is in troubled times, from a humble background, there is nowhere to vote, so I can only fall into the mountains. Eh, once this person makes a mistake, it will be difficult to turn back. I did evil everywhere, and I didn't know how many small lives I carried, but later my prestige became more and more powerful, and there were more people. Even the government at that time had to give me three points of thin noodles. I occupy the mountain as the king, within a radius of 100 miles, who doesn't know my big buffalo! However, the good times did not last long, and my cottage later fought with another mountain race, and I got carried away, fell into the enemy's tricks, and my brothers were almost dead.

I escaped with only seven or eight centaurs, and when I arrived, my brothers were dead. I was also seriously injured and was rescued by the old shopkeeper of this restaurant. The old shopkeeper knew that I was a thief, but he did not report to the official, nor did he kill him. But I prepared day and night, and even had evil thoughts, robbed his family, took the money, and fled.

But the old shopkeeper has a life-saving grace for me, I really can't do it, I think the old shopkeeper wants to hurt me, so I accept my fate. Since then, I have been doing chores in this restaurant. Until the old shopkeeper died, he didn't expose me as a thief, and even married his daughter to me. At first, although the villagers disliked me from unknown origins, the old shopkeeper repeatedly sheltered me, and the villagers saw that the old shopkeeper married his daughter to me, thinking that I was not a bad person, so they gradually accepted it.

I have been guilty for many years, and I am satisfied to be able to live in such a stable life. And I also understand a truth, the world is impermanent, these many things, many times are involuntarily, if you blindly stick, it will not help. As long as you are willing to cheer up and be kind, the people around you will help you and accept you. There is no trench that cannot be crossed, and often many times, people can't pass their own level.

It's like me, when I did a lot of misdeeds and evil, the old shopkeeper was willing to accept me as a thief. And I really had a bad idea at that time and killed the old shopkeeper, I am afraid that I would have died a long time ago, where can I enjoy my old age in peace? Young man, I don't look like a heinous person, if you practice yourself like this, your family must be worried day and night. If you understand that there is wine and meat here, you can eat a good meal and go home. If you still don't understand, I won't drive you away. ”

Lao Niu slowly talked about the past, and after saying that, I don't know how small Wen Shun listened to, or didn't hear half a word at all, slowly got up, and went to the side to start cleaning up. At this time, suddenly there was a noise in the distance, and there were many figures, and the old cow saw it and hurriedly asked. The old man who bought wine just now said anxiously.

"Oh no! Hearing that the queen died of illness, the king of the Western Tang Dynasty was grief-stricken, and he fell seriously ill. In order to make the queen's soul peaceful as soon as possible, the king of the Western Tang Dynasty endured the pain and declared the whole country and was buried on the fourth day of September. I waited for the benevolence of the king and queen of the Western Tang Dynasty, so we discussed it together and rushed to Chang'an to pay tribute together!! ”

"Ahh There is such a big thing, and you are also waiting for the old cow. Lao Niu will pack up and rush with you and the others. Young man! ”

Lao Niu's face was anxious, and he was about to temporarily hand over the restaurant to Wen Shun and rush with the villagers. I don't know, there is still half a figure on that table. All that was left was a few ingots of silver, and the two bottles of good wine on the table, as well as the beef, were gone. And the old man who bought the wine, looking at the few ingots of silver, his face was full of different colors, where is that madman sacred, these silver two feet can buy the entire restaurant of Lao Niu.

On the second day of September, it rained a lot. In Chang'an City, there is a sad atmosphere, the people on the street are wearing white coats and clothes, and outside Chang'an City, the people who come to worship are countless. In the Hall of Merit, Wen Shun changed his clothes and knelt on the ground. Wen Han sat on the throne, and the courtiers were all dismissed by Wen Han, and only father and son were left in the palace. I don't know how long it was silent, Wen Han said slowly.

"Rebel, do you know that your queen is still nagging your name before she dies!"

Wen Shun's body trembled, held back tears, and replied in a choked voice.

"The child is not filial, and he is willing to be punished!"

When Wen Han heard this, he let out a long sigh, and for some reason, he suddenly found that it seemed difficult for him and Wen Shun to be the same as before. Wen Han did not respond, and Wen Shun kept kneeling. Wen Han remembered Cai Yan's last words, his heart twitched, and he said silently.

"Your queen commanded him on her deathbed, and she should not blame you. Get up. ”

When Wen Shun heard this, he trembled again and did not react. Wen Han shouted repeatedly, and Wen Shun came back to his senses and got up slowly.
