The whole capital was filled with a strong smell of blood, and there were soldiers everywhere who killed people without blinking, and his father's cronies were hiding in Tibet with him, and the road back to the Xuanping Marquis Mansion seemed to be unexpected.

In the end, he still couldn't go back, and he couldn't see his mother for the last time.

Just a hundred steps away from the gate of the Hou Mansion, he watched as the vicious officers and soldiers rushed into his house, burning and plundering everywhere, and his brothers and sisters were chained and shackled and did not know where to take them.

His mother coughed up blood and died the moment the officers and soldiers broke down the door, and the officers and soldiers carried her body and disappeared.

His father's cronies held him down and prevented him from calling. Sadness and fatigue drove him into a stupor.

When he awoke again, it was in a woman's boudoir, who was standing in front of the window, her long black hair scattered behind her head, she looked at the glow of the sun in the east, and sighed, "The dawn has finally come."

He recognized her, Situ Xiaguang, the eldest daughter of the Four Princes.

He rolled to his feet, drew his sword from the wall, and stabbed her in the back of the heart. As soon as the sword touched the woman's flying silk, she saw her left hand clasp his wrist, and with a little force, he threw down the sword in pain.

"I saved you, but you're going to kill me?" The woman's lips opened slightly, and her voice was very good, but there was no hint of anger.

He remembered his father's death, tears couldn't help but fall, and he shouted: "My father was killed by Guo Jian, Guo Jian is the person of the Four Princes, and it was your father who let him kill him." ”

The woman's expression was a little gloomy, but she said coldly: "Since ancient times, the king has been defeated, what right does the loser have to blame others?" ”

He had nothing to say, and turned to leave, but heard the people behind him say, "Now there are people who are arresting you outside, and there is only one way to get out." ”

"That's better than staying here." The Four Princes' Mansion, he didn't want to stay for a moment.

"That's not up to you, you were rescued by me, if I don't let you go, you won't be able to leave." The woman summoned a guard and carried him to the next room like a chicken.

He, Li Jinmin, has since become a prisoner of the county lord of Xiaguang.

The county lord didn't care about him asking about things outside, and sometimes when he was interested, he would tell him in person. As a result, he got a lot of news, such as:

The prince forced the palace to rebel and was killed.

The emperor was so angry that he had a stroke, and the officials elected the four princes to act as the government.

The prime minister assisted the prince in his rebellion and beheaded all over the house.

The official department Shangshu assisted the prince in rebelling and beheaded all over the house.

……

Marquis Xuanping assisted the prince in rebelling and beheaded all over the house.

All those who had a relationship with the crown prince were beheaded, except for the Ningguo Mansion.

He was crazy and swung his sword and slashed, making the whole yard jump, but the county lord only looked at him coldly and told people to ignore him.

"Life is a hero, death is also a ghost."

This is his father's favorite sentence, and his father always aspires to use it and always teaches him to be a "hero".

He still clearly remembers the appearance of his father's generous death, his father became what he wanted to be, but what about him?

Two years later, the emperor died, and the new emperor was undoubtedly the fourth prince.

The lord of Xiaguang has become Princess Xiaguang, and she has her own princess mansion. His range of activities changed from a small courtyard to an entire mansion.

Now he has no idea of running away, anyway, there is no home for him anywhere in the world, and there is no one he wants to meet.

The people in the house said that he was the face of the princess, and he would feel embarrassed at first, but then he didn't bother to care.

He and the princess, even he himself, don't know what their relationship is. He must have hated her, hated her father for killing his whole family, hated her for saving him and leaving him to live in pain all day long.

But he still remembered that day, she came to his courtyard in a bright red dress, she was already good-looking, and she specially painted a strong makeup that day, which was very charming and moving.

She brought wine and food, and the two drank each other under the moon, and the wine of that day was mellow and fragrant.

She said she was getting married.

Originally, she was supposed to get married that year, but she took advantage of the chaos in the capital to kill her fiancé with her own hands, disguised as a rebel.

Later, she said that she would keep filial piety for her fiancé for three years, and then the emperor picked all the handsome people in the world for her, but she was always picky in every way.

Now that she is twenty-two years old, the emperor does not want to indulge in this matter no matter how much he favors her, so he gave the marriage with a stroke of the pen, and the wedding date will be ten days later.

She stared at the moonlight and smiled beautifully, but he could read the helplessness in her smile.

Situ Xiaguang stretched out her slender jade hand, and her bright red nails set off her white complexion like mutton fat jade. Her fingertips brushed his face and slid down the neckline.

He stiffened and didn't know how to move, this woman's behavior, he could never guess.

"I'll let you go, you can go wherever you want from now on." She hugged him from behind, her red lips pressed into his ear. With that, she took his earlobe in her mouth and sucked it gently.

He should have been angry, or ashamed, or feeling insulted, but he finally took her into his arms with his backhand and bit her lip hard.

The acacia wine on the table still exudes its unique sweet aroma, stirring up the fragrance of the room.

She always did what she said, and the next evening someone gave him a burden and took him out of the capital.

In the baggage were two sets of clean clothes, some dry food, and silver stamps. He grabbed his burden and looked at the pedestrians who were hurrying by, but his heart was at a loss.

***************

The lights of the Lu family were lit all night, and they looked so dazzling in the quiet dark night of Sifang City, and suddenly, he remembered that day.

That day, the princess's mansion was very lively, and it was also like this, red candles swaying, gongs and drums were noisy, he looked for an unknown mountain outside the city like today, and kept looking at it, and he had forgotten the mood at that time.

He deliberately forgot a lot of things, so when Master Su picked him up and asked him for his name, he chose a name for himself called "Lethe".

That little girl, always mischievous and mischievous, the little girl who plays tricks on him, one day, he will forget it.

Shopkeeper Chen had already handed over his resignation to Master Su, and he gave up all the things he had obtained in Sifang City over the years, and left with only a little silver, some dry food, and two clothes.

The sky was slightly bright, the lights of the Lu family finally burned out, and the shopkeeper Chen took his burden and went down to Xiaobie Mountain to continue his dazed journey.

Suddenly, he seemed to hear his father's voice again: "Life is a hero, death is also a ghost-"

He paused, suddenly hid his face with his sleeves, and cried loudly.

His father was loyal and courageous all his life, and he acted above board. He remembered himself when he was a child, looking at his father's tall back, full of yearning and admiration.

At that time, he often told his mother that when he grew up, he would become like his father.

His mother would always touch his head and say with a smile: "Yes, Jin Min will definitely become a man who stands up to the sky." ”

He knelt in the direction of the capital, bowed to the former Xuanping Marquis Mansion, and said: "Father and mother are above, the child Jinmin is ashamed of the ancestors of the Li family, the child is sorry for the teachings of the father and mother, the child is ......."

He couldn't cry: "The child is not a 'hero', and he can't be a big hero like his father......"
