Chapter 15 Abandon the old and welcome the new
When Ji Nai appeared in front of people again, he was already dressed in filial piety, neat makeup, no powder, no noise or noise, just kneeling beside the coffin, and the tears in his eyes were flowing slowly. With endless sadness in her heart, accompanied by tears gushing out, an invisible barrier was formed to envelop Ji Nai, no matter how others persuaded her, she ignored it, just knelt quietly to the side.
When Daishan accompanied Nurhachi, the Beile, Taiji, Elder Brother, Princess, and Gege of the Aixin Jueluo family were already in place, and the scale was simply more complete than that of the Guerjia clan. Nurhachi was clearly content with such an arrangement, and he had no anger but grief.
Nurhachi sat on the side, quietly watching the coffin.
Ji Nai, who was kneeling on the side, moved to the side of the big man on his knees, lying on his lap, and couldn't cry with a word of "Marfa".
Nurhachi's tears in his eyes were also drawn out, he raised his hand and stroked Ji Nai's hair, his eyes were full of sadness, and he no longer had the charm of the past, and his empty eyes looked straight at the coffin that was not far away, but he couldn't say half a word. He was already gray-haired, and now he was a little haggard, and his old age was fully revealed.
While the old and the young comforted each other, it also touched all the sorrows in the mourning hall. In an instant, the sound of crying and sobbing wafted in every corner of the entire mourning hall, which surrounded for a long time and could not be dispersed.
Ji Nai should be sad. In this house, she is worry-free about food and clothing, maybe the old husband and young wife are not as good as they want, but the grace and glory are also personally felt. Even though she can return home with Guohuan after tomorrow, the future of the other road is not the same as the indefinite.
Nurhachi was also sad. This brother, who has been on the battlefield with him for a long time and shares life and death, passed away like this, and walked so quietly. For an old man, this is just the beginning, the beginning of the five ministers and his Nurhachi, and even more people who have come together, even if their iron horses can step on the world, life and death are only the destiny of heaven, and manpower is uncontrollable.
On the day of Fei Yingdong's burial, Ji Nai's crying was earth-shattering and he almost fainted. Brother Guohuan made a request to Dahan at the right time to take Ji Nai back to live temporarily and change the environment, so that he could relax his emotions and recuperate.
This is knowledgeable, because it is a temporary residence, so the share in Guerjia Mansion is naturally indispensable, and Ji Nai is the great blessing in this mansion, and this monthly monthly silver is enough for her to live in peace. As for how long it will last, it is a dignified Dudu Taiji mansion, and it is not something that people in Guarjia Mansion can ask.
Nurhachi was already grateful for Ji Nai's loneliness and suffering, and took pity on her touching the scene, so he immediately agreed to Guohuan's request. And Guohuan's actions made Nurhachi feel that although the Dudu brothers and sisters had lost all their reliance and were lonely, it was rare that they could still care for each other, and their compassion was greatly moved, and they rewarded the Dudu brothers and sisters with a raise of their hands.
Lan Xi'er looked at everything coldly, and sure enough, the children who grew up in the mansion were not fuel-efficient lamps, and even her brother Guohuan, who had always been kind and humble in her heart, could turn things around in a few words. At this moment, she even felt that Tianguo Huan was willing to come forward to let Ji Nai return home, all of which were calculated pros and cons.
Fei Yingdong's funeral was handled, but Nurhachi had been depressed and depressed, and everyone was cautious.
The whole city of Hetuara is lifeless.
Finally, the Han himself broke the deadlock and made a will that made the whole city boil - to move the capital to Salhu City.
As soon as the news broke, the entire city of Hetuara was busy. The planning of the new city, the redistribution of Baylor and the princess's mansion, and the coming and going of the entire Jianzhou army between the two cities, lasted four months, and the date for the real relocation of the capital was decided.
"Your second uncle is really getting more and more out of character." Mang Guji came in from the courtyard with anger on his face.
"E-niang, E-niang, what's wrong?" Nakia ran to Eniang's side, and the excitement was really no less than her Eniang.
Mang Guji took the younger daughter's hand, sat opposite the eldest daughter, glanced at the eldest daughter's practice of calligraphy, and sighed in her heart, she once felt that it was wrong to let her daughter learn Han culture, this daughter has learned more and more pedantic. Just like just now, after asking myself for peace, I continued to practice calligraphy with a blank face. Who is this kind of distracted character?
"Your second uncle, you swaggered and snatched Yue Tuo's new yard, the one you chose before, and now you don't want it, so you just change it to Yue Tuo."
When Mang Guji mentioned Yue Tuo, he deliberately accentuated his tone, and as soon as the words fell, the room instantly became quiet.
Lan Xi'er raised her head and found that Eniang, Xiaomei, the two grandmothers and Xingni were all looking at her. recalled what Eniang had just said, and smiled bitterly, Yue Tuo was really tied to himself.
"Yue Tuo Taiji is really powerful, he can have his own mansion at such an old age." Mama Tu brought tea and handed it to the princess, she was the princess's dowry maid and stayed in the princess's mansion for the rest of her life. Talk casually in this room.
"Of course, after making so many contributions and being so good, it is also unique in this family." The third princess said as she looked at her eldest daughter. She can see that Yue Tuo definitely has thoughts about her daughter, but her daughter is always faint.
Lan Xi'er sighed lightly in her heart, put away her pen and paper, she felt that she should go back to her room, clean.
"Ten days later, we moved the capital, moved to a new home, and packed up our things." Mang Guji glanced at his daughter who was about to leave the house, shouted loudly, and sat down sullenly to drink tea. Mama Tu was busy fanning the princess. Let her go smoothly.
It's just that no one in this room saw the sadness that flashed in Lan Xi'er's eyes when she heard about the relocation of the capital.
"Gege, the slave will accompany you." Hinney looked at the trail in front of him, his eyes both worried and puzzled.
"You and they are waiting for me quietly over there, do you understand?" Hinnie was obviously stunned, and although Gege didn't like to laugh, he rarely spoke loudly to himself.
Lan Xi'er also felt that her tone was heavy, and when she looked at Hinni again, her eyes were a little red. Busy and comforted: "This piece is the territory of the red flag, who do you think dares to treat me." ”
When Hindi heard this, he still raised his eyes and looked into the distance, although it was a little far away, but he could see the military camp with red flags, and Gege walked through this path, which was a river and a cave.
Hindi used to accompany Gege to watch the sunset by the river. She knew the road conditions, and since Gege insisted on doing so, she had no choice but to nod her head and retreat to the place designated by Gege with the carriage and the guards.
Lan Xi'er walked through the path, stood by the river, looked into the distance, looked at the river and looked at the camp with red flags, and sighed unconsciously in her heart. After a while, he walked to the edge of the cave, dug out a delicate jewelry box, the size of his palm, opened the box gently, a bundle of hair was tied by a red rope, and lay quietly in the box, Lan Xi'er's eyes instantly turned red. Sitting on the edge of the cave, curled up and staring at the river in a daze.
After a while, Lan Xi'er looked at the bundle of hair in her hand, and when she made a sound, her sadness finally leaked out, tears dripped on her hands, and she choked up: "Su Xin, bury you here, because this is the happiest place for me, but now that we are moving the capital, I'll take you with me, okay?" ”
"Su Xin, after you left, the slaves and maids in the house are all new, and a lot of things have happened to me. But I don't even have anyone to talk to. ”
The sound of horses' hooves suddenly struck, waking up Lan Xi'er's sadness, and she put away her hair vigilantly and held the jewelry box. Stand up and look in the direction you came. The two men came side by side.
"That's the view behind this path."
"Yes, when I was a child, I only saw this river in the barracks with red flags, but I never came close."
Both men were both amazed and surprised.
"Lan Xigege is really here."
Lan Xi'er looked at Jingda and Yue Qi, feeling irritable for no reason.
"Xi'er, why are you here alone, how dangerous it is not for people to follow." Yue Qi stepped off the horse, facing Lan Xi'er's sudden enthusiasm, and when she saw Xingni and the carriage of the Third Princess's Mansion, she had already noticed that Lan Xi'er was nearby. She was now more interested and curious about this cousin.
Lan Xi'er's disgust for Yue Qi's enthusiasm for no reason, especially when she walked with Jingda, the word "draw a line" had been shouted in her heart.
"Lan Xigege, this is watching the red flag." Jingda also dismounted, stopped in front of Lan Xi'er, looked at the military camp on the other side of the river, and said with a mocking look in his eyes: "Lan Xigege, who can you see at such a distance?" ”
Lan Xi'er understood what Jingda meant, but she really didn't want to say more than half a word to this person. Beautiful eye-catching, but not smart enough. He moved his feet and walked past Jingda.
Jingda raised his feet very uninterestingly, once again blocking Lan Xi'er's way, tilting his head, looking at Lan Xi'er with a pair of watery eyes, his face was full of arrogance and pride.
"Get out of the way!" Lan Xi'er stared at Jingda coldly with a pair of eyes.
This voice surprised Jingda, in Jingda's heart, Lan Xi'er was deceitful, although she looked delicate, she was also very weak, and her appearance was not as good as herself, but she was relying on her domineering mother, and others gave her three points. But at this time, the cold light in Lan Xigege's eyes really shocked her heart.
Yue Qi knew Lan Xi'er's temper, and since she was a child, her brothers in the family liked to play with her, and they all let her, and it was not only the credit of the third aunt. Hurriedly dragging Jingda and shaking his head gently. Jingda took a half-step back.
Lan Xi'er kept a calm face, didn't look at her, and walked slowly.
"Brother Yuetuo is going to take us on horseback riding today." Jingda suddenly shouted loudly.
Lan Xi'er really stopped, Jingda was just about to be proud, but saw that she still left.
"This is the proud princess." Yue Qi's tone of envy, but there was a chill in his eyes, looking at the back of the river that was getting farther and farther away.
Jingda was already angry, her beauty was no one in Yehe who didn't give three points of face, and the men even fell under her pomegranate skirt. But here, but here, her brother-in-law has always been cold to her, and the woman who can make her brother-in-law smile is the Lan Xigege in front of her who never takes her in her eyes. Regardless of jumping on the horse and chasing after him.
Yue Qi was startled, and quickly regained his composure, and quietly looked at the two of them with a chill in his eyes.
Lan Xi'er heard the sound of horses' hooves and didn't dodge, she believed that no matter whether it was Jingda or Yue Qi, they didn't dare to do anything to her. Jingda really didn't want to do anything to her, but she never expected that she wouldn't dodge. In a hurry, he quickly reined in the horse and shouted to get out of the way, Lan Xi'er turned around, and saw that the horse's head was about to stick to herself, so she dodged away, but she was still caught off guard and fell down, and rolled into the flowing water.
"Xi'er." Yue Qi hurriedly ran over, she knew that if Lan Xi'er had an accident, she and Jingda would not survive. Jingda was also stupid and stood aside. The two remembered that Lan Xi'er's guard was not far away, and hurriedly ran out together to find someone.
The moment Lan Xi'er rolled into the river, she had already controlled her body, but when she fell and rolled, the jewelry box in her hand fell off and floated down the river.
"Suxin." Lan Xi'er didn't care about the lapping of the river, stood in the water, got up and squatted down to find the jewelry box.
When Xingni saw that Jingda and Yue Qi had gone to Gege's place, he was very uneasy, and when he hesitated to follow him, he saw Yue Tuo and Du Zhi coming on horseback. When he saw Synnie there, he was also stunned. Before Xingni finished speaking, he saw that Yue Qi and Jingda had already run out of the small road in a panic. Yue Tuo knew that it was not good, so he didn't ask, and rode away directly. Du Zhi looked at the two of them and frowned, and hurriedly followed.
"Suxin." Lan Xi'er shouted while constantly searching in the river. Yue Tuo ran over and grabbed Lan Xi'er.
"Let go, let go." Lan Xi'er didn't even look at it, and while shaking off the hand that grabbed her, she had to walk inside.
"Xi'er." Yue Tuo shouted at her, hoping that she could come back to her senses.
Lan Xi'er turned around abruptly and was surprised to see Yue Tuo. Yue Tuo's face was also full of surprise, seeing her standing in the water, wet from head to toe, and she didn't know whether it was tears or river water on her face. With a pain in his heart, he pulled her and walked to the shore.
"Leave me alone. I don't need you to mind me. Lan Xi'er shook off Yue Tuo's hand vigorously and was about to go to the river.
"You let go, didn't you leave me alone, didn't you throw me here alone?" Lan Xi'er didn't know what was wrong, and when she saw Yue Tuo, all the anger and grievances in her heart poured out.
Yue Tuo still clenched Lan Xi'er's hand, his heart sank, his eyes were full of sadness, Lan Xi'er hated his eyes, in the past five years, they had rarely seen each other, but every time he looked like this. I can't breathe because I feel heartache, and I don't know if it's for myself or for plain heart.
"Suxin." Lan Xi'er let out a heart-rending shout, unloaded all her strength, squatted in the river, and let the river beat herself, tears rolling down.
Yue Tuo pulled her up from behind, and his two arms wrapped his arms firmly around her waist and shoulders, encircling her in his arms. Lan Xi'er instinctively resisted and struggled, but she couldn't move at all, she rolled up Yue Tuo's sleeve and bit his arm regardless of it.
A sharp pain came, but Yue Tuo didn't pull out his arm, letting her two rows of teeth stick between her flesh and blood, sinking deeper and deeper.
"Brother-in-law." Jingda was just about to walk over, but Du Class suddenly stepped forward and blocked her way.
"She is the person in Yue Tuo's heart, you can't stop it." Du Zhi looked at the two people in the river, his tone was serious and cold, such a capital class is rare and frightening. Yue Qi grabbed Jingda and kept shaking her head.
Yue Tuo's other arm was still holding Lan Xi'er, and he whispered, "Cry, cry." ”
This sentence seemed to open up all the grievances in Lan Xi'er's heart, and the whole person kept trembling in Yue Tuo's arms, tears gushed out more and more, and bursts of whining sounds came out from the place where he bit his arm.
Yue Tuo knew that she had collapsed, she had been wronged for the past year, and her unhappy and unangry personality was not the real her at all, she should be sunny and naughty.
After a long time, the smell of blood finally pulled Lan Xi'er's nerves back. He opened his mouth and looked at the bloody tooth marks on his arm, which was shocking.
Yue Tuo saw that her mood had eased, and slowly let go of his hand.
Yue Tuo took care of her carefully, but Lan Xi'er felt a burst of distress in her heart, with tears still on her face, and shouted angrily: "Yue Tuo, why don't you hide? Why don't you hide? Do you owe me?"
Yue Tuo looked at Lan Xi'er, his eyes were full of guilt and sadness, and he said with a straight face: "Yes, Yue Tuo owes Xi'er." ”
Lan Xi'er's eyes flashed with tears, she looked at Yue Tuo for a moment, and shook her head gently: "Yue Tuo doesn't owe Xi'er anything, we are clear." After speaking, he didn't look at Yue Tuo anymore, ran directly out of the path, and ran to the carriage.
Yue Tuo looked at Lan Xi'er's figure gradually moving away, and sighed deeply, the riverside where they played together as children was still rolling eastward like that at the moment, sparkling.
"Eniang, what does this have to do with Su Xin? What does it have to do with them? Lan Xi'er looked at her mother with a pair of surprised eyes. The young Gege only understood the power of the word princess at this moment, and in a blink of an eye, he could take the lives of all the slaves and maids in his house.
"If it weren't for their nonsense, how could there be such rumors." Mang Guji's eyes were already full of murderous intent, which made people shudder.
"E-niang, she won't be able to do it." Lan Xi'er wanted to say something, but Mang Guji left a Tu Mama to look at her, and left without looking back.
"E-niang." Lan Xi'er tried to push open the door that was about to be locked, but she tried her best, and the door was still locked without a doubt.
"Eniang, Su Xin won't. Suxin won't. Lan Xi'er knelt in front of the door and kept repeating. The protagonist of the rumor was her, but E-Niang disposed of Su Xin and everyone in her house in this way.
"Gege, listen to the princess, the princess is all for Gege." Seeing that Lan Xi'er had no strength, Mama Tu sat down on the ground and hurriedly helped her to the bed.
"Mama, E-Niang listens to you the most, you help me persuade E-Niang, Suxin They are innocent." Lan Xi'er held Mama Tu's arm, like a life-saving straw, and was about to kneel down and plead when she spoke.
"Gege, hurry up, the slave can't stand it." Mama Tu once again helped Lan Xi'er to sit on the edge of the bed, gently brushing the hair scattered between her foreheads, this is Gege she watched grow up, she is not as cowardly as her Amma, nor is she as domineering as her mother, she has always been sweet and playful, at this moment her eyes were full of tears, and her heart hurt: "Gege, forget about them." ”
With Mama Tu's words, the tears in Lan Xi'er's eyes couldn't stop pouring out, and those eyes suddenly lost their former charm. After a long time, she whispered: "Mama, are they all still alive?" ”
Mama Tu just looked at Lan Xi'er and didn't reply.
I lifted the curtain and watched the small mountain road get smaller and smaller.
Su Xin, you know my heart best, and this is the happiest place for me, so you are reluctant to leave here, right? Lan Xi'er straightened her waist and took a deep breath, okay, Su Xin, goodbye.
