Chapter 10: Lonely Night Snow (1)
Yun Xiao asked: "Loulan knows that she can't fight, why do you want to start this war?!" What exactly is his purpose? And also...... Will the death of Princess Loulan be the hand of the people of Loulan themselves? And the grandfather's matter, could it be a well-planned plan to divide the monarch and the ministers? β
Yun Hanshan frowned and sighed: "What you said is not impossible, but the Loulan Kingdom has perished, and all the Loulan people were killed in that war, that is to say, Loulan is already extinct." No one knows what the monarch of Loulan planned at that time! β
Yun Xiao was stunned again when he heard this: "It's all ...... All dead? Does it include the people of Loulan? β
Yun Hanshan nodded: "Yes...... Moreover, these will not be recorded in the history books of my Great Xia Kingdom. Therefore, to a certain extent, the demise of Loulan has become an unsolved case. β
When Yun Xiao heard this, he was shocked.
If you think about it carefully, such a tragic killing, there is only one sentence left in the history books of the Great Xia Kingdom, and there must be a huge secret hidden behind this.
Yun Hanshan seemed to be a little uneasy, so he instructed Yun Xiao:
"Yun Xiao, what I told you today is the secret of the royal family of the Great Xia Kingdom, and it is something that cannot be talked about with outsiders at will, even your second brother doesn't know! You must know that these things that have not left traces in the history books are all secrets that the superiors do not want to be known by the world! β
Yun Xiao's matter was not a joke, he nodded hurriedly and said seriously: "I have written it down, you can rest assured." β
"That's good, that's good......"
Yun Xiao saw that he was still frowning deeply, so he asked, "Dad, are you still worried about your grandfather's affairs?" What can I do for you? β
Yun Hanshan let out a long sigh, thought about it again and again, and finally said:
"Yun Xiao, you have this heart, I am very pleased! I didn't want you to be in danger, but I'm already old, I've checked all my life, and I haven't been able to find the person who murdered your grandfather, as you guessed, I also think that that person is hiding in the palace of the Great Xia Kingdom, and now, you are about to become the crown princess, I will do all the strength of our Yun family to help you enter the Middle Palace, so that you can get close to the center of power in our Great Xia Kingdom, if you can, I hope you can help me find out the truth of the year in the palace, so that when I go underground, I will not have no face to see your grandfatherβ¦β¦ However, this is a difficult and dangerous task, Yun Xiao, are you really willing to do it? β
His gaze was full of eagerness.
That kind of eagerness, so that Yun Xiao from the heart of the moved, since childhood, the master taught Yun Xiao "a hundred good filial piety first", Yun Xiao was ignorant when she was young, did not understand what filial piety is, and did not know what the sorrow in the hearts of her parents was, she only knew that the days of living in the mountains with the master, there was nothing to ask for, nothing to worry about.
Now, she understands that filial piety can also be a kind of inheritance.
She looked at Yun Hanshan with the same eager gaze and replied, "Dad, I am willing, and I will definitely not disappoint your entrustment!" β
"Good, good, good...... Good boy ......"
Yun Hanshan patted Yun Xiao's shoulder and said with great relief,
"Yun Xiao, for my father, I have a sensible daughter like you, no matter whether this matter can be done or not, I have no regrets! I really didn't expect that you would be raised so well by your master on the mountain, and your master is really a master! Your second brother is by his father's side, and he has always been raised by his father and your mother personally, and he can't compare to you at all, and he can't help our Yun family with any favors, and he ...... for his father."
Yun Xiao hurriedly persuaded: "Dad, in fact, the second brother is also as good as the second brother, the second brother is very good at making my mother happy, in the future, if you make my mother angry, just invite the second brother to ensure that my mother will not be angry for a while!" β
Yun Hanshan smiled when he heard this: "This family, there is only you, who is willing to say good things for him, and now, even your eldest brother is too lazy to take care of him!" β
Yun Xiao smiled brightly: "Who made him my second brother!" If I don't speak for him, who else can I speak? β
"If your second brother is half as sensible as you, I can worry a lot less!"
At this moment, Yun Hanshan sighed again,
"Since you came back, your eldest brother has been talking about you every day that you are the treasure of our Yun family, and you are really not wrong at all! Over the years, you have been in the mountains, your eldest brother has been worried about you, you track down your grandfather's affairs, don't tell your eldest brother for the time being, otherwise, your eldest brother will definitely not agree to you marrying the prince, he has a stubborn temper, and when the time comes, I am afraid that everyone will be ugly! β
Yun Xiao hurriedly nodded and said, "I know that before, the eldest brother didn't approve of this marriage and persuaded me a few times, but I told the eldest brother that this was my own decision and I would not regret it, so the eldest brother didn't say anything more!" Dad, don't worry, even if the eldest brother knows about it in the future, I will stabilize him! β
These words, if it weren't for the father and daughter opening their hearts now, Yun Xiao probably wouldn't have said them!
Here, Yun Hanshan patted Yun Xiao's hand and said, "Okay, after talking so much today, you are also tired, go back to your room and rest early!" β
"Hmm...... Dad, don't be too tired, pay more attention to your body. β
Yun Xiao left, however, as soon as she walked to the gate and was about to open the door, she suddenly turned around and said to Yun Hanshan,
"By the way, Dad, I want to go to the mountains to meet Master before I get married, after all, he has raised me for so many years, and my marriage is a big deal, and I should tell him."
"You think very thoughtfully, I'll arrange this matter!"
"Okay, thank you, Dad."
--------------------
It was night, Yun Xiao fell asleep, and the dream shadows came one after another.
In the dream, she stood under the peach blossom tree and looked up at the master who was playing the flute to the moon on the peach blossom tree.
At the end of the song, she asked Master, "Master, you said that you have traveled all over the world, have you ever been to Loulan?" β
The master heard it and continued to play the flute.
Seeing this, Yun Xiao frowned, and asked a little stubbornly, "Master, where do all the unnamed flowers and plants in your pharmacy come from?" Is it from Loulan? β
The master still played the flute by himself and did not say a word.
Yun Xiao was anxious: "Master, everyone in the world says that you are an omniscient genius, you must know Loulan, right?!" As long as you tell me all the things about Loulan, I will obediently study medicine with you and carry it forward in the future, okay? β
Master glanced down at her, and suddenly turned into a wisp of green smoke and floated into the sky.
Yun Xiao's eyes widened in surprise and shouted loudly, "Master...... Master...... Master...... Where are you going, why don't you take Yun Xiao with you......"
However, Master soon disappeared......
--------------------
It was more than a month before Yun Xiao saw his master Dugu Yexue again.
In the weather of May, the peach blossoms on the mountain have reached the end of their flowering period, but Yun Xiao knows that even if the peach blossoms wither and have no beauty at all, her master will still linger in the peach forest.
This peach forest, connected with the master, is a complete mystery.
Soon, Yun Xiao found the master who was cooking tea in the depths of the peach forest.
The master was still dressed in white, and Yun Xiao obediently made a greeting salute, still like on the mountain before.
Here, Dugu Yexue didn't feel strange when he saw Yun Xiao, he gave a cup of tea he had just cooked to Yun Xiao, pointed to the opposite position, and said to Yun Xiao:
"Yun Xiao, this is a peach blossom tea carefully cooked for the teacher with the peach blossoms picked this year, sit down and taste it! Oh, by the way, I also left a lot of them for you, so you can take them back when you go down the mountain. β
When Yun Xiao heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Master stargazing at night, has he already calculated that Yun Xiao will come up the mountain?" β
Dugu Yexue smiled and said, "For such a trivial matter, where is there any need to watch the stars at night?" Your father sent a letter to me two months ago to inform me that you are about to become the crown princess of the new crown prince, and I already knew that you would definitely come up the mountain in person! β
When Yun Xiao heard this, his expression was gloomy. She sat opposite Dugu Yexue and didn't say a word.
Seeing this, Dugu Yexue's eyebrows moved, and she asked, "What?" You don't want to marry the new prince? β
Yun Xiao shook his head: "No, marrying the new prince is my own decision!" β
"Then why aren't you happy?"
"The road ahead is bleak, Yun Xiao has a lot of confusion in his heart, and he doesn't know how to move forward!"
When Dugu Yexue heard this, she raised her eyebrows: "Oh, it turns out that I came up the mountain to ask for a hexagram, so let the teacher make a hexagram for you!" β
Yun Xiao was about to explain that he didn't mean that, but when he saw that he had already started divination, he had to shut up and wait.
After a while, Dugu Yexue looked at the hexagram on the table, and said to Yun Xiao: "The hexagram of the top, the lord is rich, judging from the hexagram, your father sent you to the mountains to change your rich life, it has been done, and you will be rich and noble in the future!" β
Yun Xiao looked at the table, and couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, she had chosen to study because these things were too ethereal, she frowned and said:
"Master, aren't you teasing me? No matter who it is, it will be said that the crown princess is rich and noble! β
When Dugu Yexue heard this, she laughed: "How can the teacher tease you?" Yun Xiao, you are indeed rich and noble, but you are ...... You also need the help of noble people to be able to achieve true wealth! β
"Noble?" Yun Xiao said with some doubts, "I always thought that the noble person in my life was Master. β
Dugu Yexue shook her head and said, "You are just used to relying on me since you were a child, so you think so, Yun Xiao, your future is not a smooth road, just like the national fortunes of this Great Xia Kingdom, it has never been smooth!" β
Speaking of this, Yun Xiao couldn't help asking: "Master is familiar with the history books of various countries, has profound knowledge, and has unique insights, I wonder what Master has of opinion on the current situation of the Great Xia Kingdom?" β
