Chapter 155: The Past Follows the Wind

After coming out of Liu's mansion, Liu Yan did not plan to return to the East Palace, but planned to go to the palace to ask his mother Concubine Gao Xian, so Chu Shenxia returned to the East Palace first. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

But before he entered the East Palace, he met Wei Shuming on the road, he came again today, naturally he came to get the weapon spectrum, Chu Shenxia was not a selfish person, so he invited him to go to his courtyard together.

Wei Shuming's gorgeous hair was tied in a small crown, and the silver-white strands of hair were faintly mixed with a few touches of black, he had already given birth to furrow-like wrinkles just after the age of not being confused, like an old man in a sixtieth year, Chu Shenxia couldn't imagine what kind of misery the person in front of him should have experienced before he would become old like this?

Chu Shenxia noticed that the jade pendant he was wearing was very delicate, and a small white-headed bird was looking sideways at the peony flower, but it was just a bird, but it made people see the tenderness in its eyes, and couldn't help but blurt out at the moment: "This jade pendant of Lord Wei is really unique." ”

"Haha, huh?" Wei Shuming was slightly stunned, and laughed a little embarrassedly, "This was given to me by a woman I met many years ago." ”

This time, it was Chu Shenxia's turn to be embarrassed, the woman in his mouth was not his mother Li Luo, who could it be?

Sure that since he dared to say this in front of himself, he must not know that he already knew about the entanglement between him and his mother, thought about it, and asked skillfully: "Lord Wei was so powerful back then, there must be many women who admired Lord Wei, what kind of woman can provoke Lord Wei to this day?" ”

"It's also ......fate," Wei Shuming picked up the jade pendant from his waist, his eyes rarely showed affection, and he groaned, "This woman is full of poetry and books, and her poetry and singing are the most proud of her, and what is even more rare is that she knows how to play the piano and compose music, and the style of music is chic and elegant, but such a gentle and talented woman has taken a fancy to a reckless man like me." ”

Chu Shenxia was silent, and he continued: "It's not that I'm self-deprecating. More than 20 years ago, I was arrogant and domineering, and I always thought that I was a man with strong blood, and I must go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and capture the thief. To make my Wei Shuming's prestige shocked the world, mighty Kyushu, so I became a general at the age of twenty, with a golden seal and purple ribbon, comparable to the three dukes. ”

Chu Shenxia didn't know why he had to tell him frankly. But the pace of his feet slowed quietly.

"Later, as you know, the Jin Dynasty fell, I led the troops to the battle, all the soldiers went and never returned, I fell off the horse, broke my muscles and bones, and never rode again, and I lost contact with the woman in the war."

Wei Shuming exhaled slightly, and his eyes were already red when he talked about the past. Perhaps for him, that sadness was not a whim, but a lifetime of torture.

"Then why don't you go to her? If she reappears in front of you, will you still recognize her? Chu Shenxia cautiously asked the question he was most concerned about.

Wei Shuming slowly closed his eyes and shook his head gently, his tone was so low that he seemed to be saying to himself, "No, not in this life." ”

The two of them were speechless, and their hearts were filled with all kinds of things, and they walked forward with heavy and slow steps. Chu Shenxia suddenly raised his head and said, "It's here." ”

After Wei Shuming stepped into the courtyard, he swept around, looked at the corner of the courtyard, and asked happily, "You also like the bird of paradise?" Is it because of its meaning? ”

"I'm not as casual and elegant as Lord Wei. I raised it just because it was beautiful, and my mother gave me this flower, so I didn't have the interest in growing it myself. Chu Shenxia said disapprehantly.

"Did your mother give you the flowers?" Wei Shuming's cheek muscles jumped, and there was excitement and anticipation in his eyes.

Chu Shenxia was inevitably unhappy when he saw him with such a look, but in the end he still nodded. Without giving him a chance to continue, he pushed the door and said, "Master Wei, wait a while, the weapon spectrum is in my room, I'll go get it for you." ”

In just a few words, Chu Shenxia walked out of the room with the weapon spectrum and handed it to Wei Shuming without the slightest hesitation.

Wei Shuming was not polite, and was about to turn around and leave after accepting the weapon spectrum, but was suddenly stopped by Chu Shenxia, walked up to him and asked, "I want to ask Lord Wei for a favor, I don't know if Lord Wei is willing?" ”

In Concubine Xian's palace, it was as quiet as an abandoned palace house, Liu Yan was a little uneasy in her heart, and her steps were windy, and when no one had time to make a report, she broke into the palace where Concubine Gao Xian rested on weekdays.

There was a pale-faced woman lying in front of the couch, there was a palace maid slowly massaging her temples, her face was covered with pain, thinking of the brilliance of the former concubine, Liu Yan couldn't help but hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong with the concubine?" ”

Because of his roar, Concubine Gao Xian's closed eyes suddenly opened, and she looked at Liu Yan in great astonishment, which made Liu Yan blame herself slightly, and then turned to say softly: "Why didn't you tell me when the concubine was sick?" ”

Concubine Gao Xian struggled to sit up, Liu Yan hurriedly rushed to help her in front of the palace maid, but Concubine Gao Xian softly pushed her away, leaned on the back of the couch, and said softly: "It's nothing, there will always be some minor illnesses when you are old." ”

"The concubine's face is so bad, how can it be said that it is a minor illness? Why don't you find a royal doctor? But if a minor illness drags on for a long time, it will definitely cause a serious illness, and the mother must not take it lightly, so I will go to the imperial doctor to take a look at the mother concubine. Liu Yan said that he was about to turn around and walk out.

"Eh," Concubine Gao Xian hurriedly grabbed his hand, and said in a hurry, "You don't have to go, the mother's sick mother knows in her heart that the imperial doctor has come to see her a few times before, and the mother concubine has taken it according to the prescription, but it is useless, and the headache is getting worse and worse, and the mother concubine will not eat it." ”

Liu Yan frowned, and when he saw Concubine Gao Xian's lackluster eyes, he couldn't help but say indignantly: "This royal doctor is too useless!" Even this little headache can't be cured! ”

"Don't talk about the royal doctor, even your father has had a headache these days, and the old imperial doctors in this palace are helpless." Concubine Gao Xian said a few words, only to feel that her head hurt like an explosion, and she hurriedly motioned to the palace maid on the side to massage her.

Hearing her say this, Liu Yan was a little surprised: "Why did the mother and father suddenly have a headache?" Is there something wrong? ”

"Your father and I have lived on horseback since we were children, and we used to rely on our young and good physical strength, never paid attention to our bodies, and never knew how to avoid any rainy days. Concubine Gao Xian said that the back was getting lighter and lighter, as if she was going to sleep.

Liu Yan noticed a few incense burners in the hall, and when he smelled them carefully, they were all soothing herbs, but this number was too much, and what made him strange was that after lighting so many incense burners, the fragrance was not strong at all, faint, and he couldn't smell the difference between ordinary spices if he didn't smell them carefully.

"Mother?" Liu Yan saw that her expression was relaxed, as if she had fallen asleep, so she called tentatively.

Concubine Gao Xian did not raise her eyes, maintained her original posture and remained motionless, and issued a low "um" from her nose.

"There is a doctor in my house with superb medical skills, but he is not comparable to the imperial doctor in the palace, why don't I bring it into the palace tomorrow and take a look for my mother?"

"The one you're talking about is Sun Banrong, Doctor Sun, right?" Concubine Gao Xian opened her eyes slightly, only turned her eyes to look at him, and saw that he looked expectant, so she said euphemistically, "It's not that I don't believe her, it's that I'm afraid that no one can cure my illness, so I won't bother Dr. Sun." ”

"It's cured, it's cured, the half-tolerant girl is like a god, and I ask my mother to give it a try." Seeing that Concubine Gao Xian was silent, Liu Yan said again, "Anyway, the mother's headache has reached this level, no matter how bad it is, how bad can it be?" Why don't you let the half-tolerant girl try it? There is still a glimmer of hope for the better. ”

"You kid, okay, the mother concubine will promise you," Concubine Gao Xian's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and at the moment when she was about to close them, she suddenly remembered something, slowly opened her eyes and asked, "Did you come to visit your mother today or do you have something to ask for?" ”

Liu Yan said truthfully: "I have something I want to ask my mother, but I am afraid that I will disturb my mother's recuperation." ”

"You come to ask me personally, it must not be a trivial matter, and there is nothing to disturb, just ask if you want." Concubine Gao Xian no longer had the intention of opening her eyes, and leaned her head sideways on the beauty couch, looking very tired.

Liu Yan was frightened away by her illness for a moment, but in the end she couldn't help it, waved her hand to signal everyone on the side to retreat, and then asked quietly: "Does the concubine know that Uncle Qin Wang also has a daughter who lives among the people." ”

At that moment, the sky collapsed, Concubine Gao Xian was like five thunderbolts, she sat up straight suddenly, her eyes burst out with endless flames, and she looked straight at Liu Yan and said, "Who told you this?" ”

"It's the people around King Qin back then, what does the mother know when she is so excited?" Liu Yan saw that she was so nervous, and she couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Concubine Gao Xian looked around vigilantly, and then she was a little relieved, it turned out that the palace maid had been sent out by Liu Yan, and her face returned to a tired look in an instant, but her eyes were always panicked.

"Mother?" Liu Yan shouted again, but saw Concubine Gao Xian waving her hand and said, "Don't ask, these things, in the final analysis, what do they have to do with you?" If you have to jump into this fire pit, you will surely burn yourself to death. ”

"I have been very happy since I learned that Uncle Qin Wang also has a daughter, but she has been in the people for so many years and has never been taken care of by us, so my heart is very uncomfortable." Liu Yan put his hand on Concubine Gao Xian's hand, and after feeling her slight touch, he said, "Heaven has eyes, leave Uncle Qinwang's daughter, we must find her and protect her well." ”

"Zishun," Concubine Gao Xian put her other hand on the back of Liu Yan's hand and sighed, "Why are you so persistent?" Wouldn't it be a good thing for you to come out of her? She was in exile and just escaped the case of that year, why do you have to get her out of her peaceful life? Do you think that if you don't take care of her, you will be ashamed of King Qin, but don't you feel that you put her in danger and go against the current, and you are even more sorry for what King Qin did for her in the first place? ”

Liu Yan's eyes were shocked, the mother concubine not only knew what happened, but she was also one of the people who directly participated in the matter of hiding King Qin's daughter, but the helplessness and sadness on the mother concubine's face made it clear that she would not tell herself, and she lowered her eyes with some disappointment for a while.
