Chapter 524: The Little Seedlings Are Growing
As soon as he heard that Chu Xingyue was leaving the capital, Xiao Ruiyuan was almost the happiest one.
Master's greatest desire before his death was to bring his sister back to the family and revive the Tianding family, but at that time, my sister had Zhao Ling in her heart, and she was reluctant to leave this hypocritical prince, and Master was too indulgent to her sister, so he followed her heart and returned to the capital with her; It's just that I didn't expect to lose my life when I came back.
Therefore, for Xiao Ruiyuan, Master's will is one of the most important missions in his life, and the master has no way to fulfill his wish during his lifetime, so after his death, he, who is an apprentice, will fulfill this wish for his master no matter what.
And coincidentally, he had heard Master say that the only remaining Tianding clansmen in this world are hiding in the territory of Southern Chu; Thinking of Nanchu, a sea of fire appeared in front of Xiao Ruiyuan's eyes, in the sea of fire, there were his struggling clansmen, his lifelong loved relatives, and his hatred.
Therefore, Xiao Ruiyuan had already made up his mind in his heart to take his sister to Nanchu, whether it was in a private relationship or hatred, he and his sister were bound to go through this Nanchu.
It's just that now that the Ling Wangfu is surrounded by the Royal Forest Army, do you want to let my sister climb out through the dog hole? Even if my sister is willing to aggrieved herself to climb the dog cave, but at the moment her body really can't withstand any toss, and the most important thing is that even if they escape from King Ling's mansion, how can they leave the capital?
My sister's identity is so eye-catching, once she leaves King Ling's Mansion, she will soon be noticed by the Imperial Forest Army, and when the time comes, all the nine gates of the capital will be under martial law, under the search of the Royal Forest Army, can they really hide from it?
Just when Xiao Ruiyuan was worried about how they should leave the capital, Chu Xingyue had already thought of a way and said, "Ruiyuan, there is a square box with gold thread wrapped around my dresser, and there are two signal fireworks in the box, and when it gets dark, you can find a way to light one of the fireworks and launch it into the air; Remember, if you're caught by the Guards, you're saying you're bored and want to play; You're still a child, so pretending to be innocent naturally doesn't arouse suspicion. ”
Xiao Ruiyuan listened to Chu Xingyue's words, and immediately walked to the dresser, and found the not very conspicuous square box in a pile of rouge gouache bottles and cans; Xiao Ruiyuan was born in the palace on the border of Nanchu Town, and he naturally saw more than ordinary children, he took the box and looked around carefully, and finally found that there was a totem of a bull's head engraved on the base of the box.
The little guy was clever, and immediately realized what this totem represented, hurriedly walked back to the bedside, handed the square box to Chu Xingyue, pointed to the totem and asked: "Sister, this is the bull head totem of the Western Barbarian Imperial Family, sister, you are the crown princess of Great Wei, how can there be something of the Western Barbarian Imperial Family." ”
Chu Xingyue looked at the small square box, a wry smile hooked up at the corner of her mouth, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad when she thought of what that person said to her when he handed this thing to her.
- Mother, I sincerely hope that you will never use this thing in your life.
She could see that when he said this to her, his eyes were full of sincere blessings, for they knew very well to each other what the two flames in them represented; If she is safe and smooth in her life, she naturally does not need the flames to send a distress signal, but if she has a rough life and her life is in danger, these two flames can save her life at a critical moment.
Thinking of the blessing from that person, Chu Xingyue muttered to herself: "Master Wuchen, this palace doesn't have such a good life, I didn't expect that in the end, I still need to trouble you once." ”
Hearing Chu Xingyue recite the four words Master Wuchen, Xiao Ruiyuan immediately understood; Presumably, this box must have been given to my sister by the dustless master, but how could this dustless master have something from the Western Barbarian royal family?
Could it be that this dustless master is not from the Great Wei, but from the royal family of the Western Barbarians?
Xiao Ruiyuan has many assumptions in his mind, after all, he is still young, and what he thinks in his heart can be shown on his face; Chu Xingyue couldn't help but feel a little distressed when she saw him like this, and said, "Rui Yuan, I'm sorry, I originally brought you into the mansion to let you live a happy life, but I didn't expect that this good day would be a few days away, and I would let you leave with me; Rui Yuan, I know your true identity, and I also know that if you leave the capital, you may soon be targeted by those who want your life, I don't force you, if you don't want to follow me, I can let you leave. ”
Xiao Ruiyuan knelt on the ground with a 'poof', with tears in his eyes, looked at Chu Xingyue and said, "Sister, since Master left, my last relative is only you, have you forgotten?" You used to hold my hand and tell me that you want to be my family from now on, why did you forget your words so quickly? Want to push Rui Yuan away? ”
Chu Xingyue saw that Xiao Ruiyuan had misunderstood herself, and hurriedly explained: "I'm not trying to push you away, but the next road I'm going to take, even I am not sure; If you follow me, it is very likely that you will not even take revenge, and you will disappear in this world with me. ”
"I'm not afraid! Sister, I'm not afraid of anything! Xiao Ruiyuan grabbed Chu Xingyue's hand and said seriously: "As long as I can follow my sister's side, I am willing to break into the sword mountain and the sea of fire; Besides, when my sister was rich and rich, I followed my sister to enjoy the glory, if my sister was down, but I wanted to abandon my sister, then wouldn't I become the wolf-hearted dog? Our Xiao family has never had such a unproductive and unconscionable descendant, if I do this, my father will not be blind under the ground. ”
This is the first time that Xiao Ruiyuan has revealed her true identity in front of Chu Xingyue, it seems that she guessed correctly at all, this child is really the son of the king of the town of Southern Chu, and the prince of the palace of Southern Chu; Although this child is still young, he has been educated very well by his parents, and at such a young age, he knows how to repay and tie the grass ring, and he will inevitably achieve something when he grows up.
How lucky she must have been to have him by her side when she was most helpless.
Chu Xingyue looked at Xiao Ruiyuan, who was full of tears in her eyes, and reached out with satisfaction to caress his fine white face, this small face, it was not easy to grow fatter during this time, but she didn't expect to let him suffer with her again.
However, she Chu Xingyue can swear with her life that she will definitely do everything to protect the relatives she cares about, and will never let any of them leave her again.
"Okay, I promise you Ruiyuan, I won't let you leave; Just remember what I just told you, and be careful when setting off these fireworks, and don't let the Guards notice anything, or we won't be able to leave. ”
Xiao Ruiyuan listened to Chu Xingyue's repeated advice, and realized how important this firework was to them, so he naturally responded to it, and promised to be absolutely cautious and not let the Imperial Forest Army detect any horses.
When Chun Xing came in from outside with a freshly boiled decoction, Xiao Ruiyuan hurriedly put away the square box in his hand, and then stood by Chu Xingyue's side as if nothing had happened.
After going through so many things, Chunxing's mind gradually became sensitive and delicate; Finding that Xiao Ruiyuan's eyes were a little red, he thought that Miss was not good again, so he hurriedly walked to the head of the bed, and saw that Chu Xingyue was in good spirits.
Only then couldn't help but turn his head to look at Xiao Ruiyuan's red eyes, and said in pieces: "It scared me a lot, you kid, with red eyelids, people can't help but think about it, don't stand here, Miss has me waiting for you here, you go down first and wash your face, sober up." ”
Xiao Ruiyuan naturally heard Chunxing's broken thoughts, looked up at Chu Xingyue, and saw her nodding towards him, so he bowed obediently and retreated, and after walking out of the room, he also took the door with his hand, and his well-behaved appearance was really cute.
Chun Xing heard the sound of the door closing, although she was startled by Xiao Ruiyuan just now, she still couldn't help but praise the child: "Miss, don't say it, a child as old as Ruiyuan can be so well-behaved and sensible, it is really desirable." ”
Hearing Chun Xing praise Xiao Ruiyuan, Chu Xingyue smiled sincerely, but then, a layer of distress also appeared on her face, and said: "A child as big as him is the time when he likes to play the most, but he is extremely sensible and obedient, which is not a thing that makes people too happy; Because he has endured too much, he has to grow up quickly, because he is burdened with a sea of blood and hatred, so he showed the appearance of an old man when he was a teenager; If his biological parents were still alive and seeing him like this, they must have been distressed. ”
Chun Xing knew Xiao Ruiyuan's true identity, so when she heard her young lady say this, she couldn't help but sigh and sighed: "Yes, it's too sensible, but it makes people feel distressed; It's just that the slave still blames him a little in his heart, he knows the real cause of Yuan Feng's death, but he has been patient, and he doesn't know what he wants to do with this secret; If it weren't for so many accidents today, I'm afraid we would still be kept in the dark by him. Miss, the slave maid felt that Rui Yuan's mind was too heavy, and with such a child, he was not terrible when he was young, but if he grew up in the future, he could not be underestimated. ”
Speaking of this, Chun Xing couldn't help but lower her voice, leaned closer to Chu Xingyue's ear and whispered: "The slave maid has long heard that this child who has lost his parents since childhood has more or less psychological defects, and I don't know if Rui Yuan will grow up crooked, after all, he witnessed the tragic death of his parents, and his own sister, the death is not miserable." ”
Hearing Chun Xing say this, Chu Xingyue's gaze became a little firmer, and said, "I won't let this child grow crooked, I will make him a respected person like his father; Moreover, I also believe that Ruiyuan will never go down the wrong path. ”
