Helan Xue suddenly raised her head and said, "You didn't remind me, but I forgot, Ah Peng, how did you think of it, this kind of firearm is extremely powerful, and it is far more powerful than Lianzhu crossbow when used in battle." If it weren't for the fear of too much impact, I would have wanted to do this thing a long time ago, but I didn't expect you to come up with it. ”

Wei Peng smiled and said, "Then go to sleep, I'll turn around and quietly make a man and take a look, are you a real waste when you're a man?" ”

Helan Xue closed her eyelids and murmured, "It's so tiring to live in the capital, how did you survive?" ”

Wei Peng hugged her and said, "Sleep, I'm used to it, there are so many things to do, wait until I finish cleaning up the Wen family with the third uncle, and then clean up a thousand hands." ”

Thirty miles north of the city, passing through a grange and bypassing a small river, you can see a large manor at the foot of the mountain. Helan Xue sent the four Wen Cup to wait for him in a village about ten miles north of the city, and he rode alone to find King De.

In front of the manor, Lechuan was already waiting, and when he saw that she was really here, he took her directly into the village. In the study, King De wore a crescent white straight jacket, embroidered with purple and gold python patterns, at this time, he turned his back to Helan Xue, and in front of his eyes was a painting, painting a girl wearing a water-green skirt, standing under a blooming begonia tree, her eyes looked at this side, her eyes were as if they were alive, vivid and smart, with a smile. Helan Xue only saw his back, and somehow, this back was so lonely and gloomy, and a rich sadness permeated the room.

"The west wind alone detains the shadow of the cold window, Xiao Xiao yellow leaves are cool at night and autumn, and when you are looking for the road in the world, you will know that you have been mistaken in this life."

Helan Xue carefully touched this poem, and suddenly there was a kind of desolation condensed in the internal organs, which made people sad from it, hearing King De read such a verse, and then looking at his back in the form of a single figure, this kind of sadness turned around, and it was difficult to give up, and her tears flowed.

King De didn't look back, only said lightly: "This is what your mother painted for her on the day of her and Lu, I finally waited for her to be Jilu, but in the end, I still didn't marry her, and I saw that I married that bastard, and finally broke her." It's me who is sorry for her. ”

Helan Xue suddenly shouted: "Is the throne really so important? If you quit this game early, wouldn't you be able to marry her? And why regret it after she died after she got married? ”

King De turned around, the girl in front of him was full of tears, the sadness in the big apricot eyes was like the way she fled from her arms that day, I think she hated herself, if she withdrew from the competition for the throne at that time, the Xie family would not have married her to Lian Kang, and there would have been no things that happened in the next three hours, maybe she had died with the Xie family, but in this way, at least she would not regret it, and she would not let herself live in regret for the rest of her life.

He stretched out his hand to wipe Helan Xue's tears, and his voice was soft with endless sadness: "It's my fault, I should have given up a long time ago, I could have given her everything, but I ended up losing her." This is the thing I regret the most in this life, everything you say is right, be my daughter, you should have been my daughter, when you get married, the palace will prepare a dowry for you, and let Rong'er carry you on the sedan chair. ”

Helan Xue turned her head, shook off King De, and said unhappily: "Where is the prince going to put the princess and Ah Rong?" Are you compensating my mother? Not necessarily. You couldn't give it to her when you were alive, and now that everyone has been dead for eleven years, why do you bother to find peace of mind in me. ”

King De paused and muttered: "I don't want to marry a wife, the princess and side concubine were given to me by my father and brother." He smiled bitterly, withdrew his hand to wipe Helan Xue's tears, and said, "Am I not the only one who bears your mother?" How can I be worthy of these two women? He took a deep breath and calmed down before he said again: "Whether you admit it or not, in my heart, you are my Wei Jinxi's daughter, I don't have anything to do with Lian Kang, I know you hate him, and when I free up my hands to kill him, you don't have to bear the notoriety of killing your father." ”

Helan Xue: "......" This King of Germany really doesn't understand, I can't imagine that it will be such a person, these royal people are really not serious, and they can't look at it with the eyes of a normal person at all. Her sadness was completely defeated by this person's thoughts, and she couldn't help but roll her eyes silently, how could her mother's man be so weird?

King De took out a brocade box from the table, put it in her hand, and said, "This is your mother's." ”

Helan Xue opened it and saw that there were several pieces of jewelry with excellent workmanship materials, one of which was very familiar, her eyes widened, and she reached out to pick it up, this is the one she picked for her mother, and the other one was sent to Xuanwang's Mansion to deliver news to the princess. On that day, the mother and the princess agreed that if she received a step shake from her mother, it meant that the matter was urgent and she should be sent away immediately. She raised her eyes to look at King De, and tears couldn't help but flow down again, the old man in front of her made herself love and hate! If he is really his father, how happy his mother will be in this life, and he will sing with the man he likes, and the family will be killed together back then, and there will be no regrets.

King De's eyes were also watery, and he patted her with a smile and said, "I'll come back and get this later, you come with me first, and I'll take you to meet the person you want to meet." ”

Going out from behind Zhuangzi, he rode his horse into the mountains for another quarter of an hour, and in front of him was a ginkgo forest, and the yellow leaves everywhere were brilliant and dazzling. In the forest, there is a tomb isolated, and there are several strong and powerful characters on the tombstone in front of the round arch piled up by bluestone: beloved wife buries incense mound.

King De stepped forward and gently stroked the words on the stele, Helan Xue looked at his back in a daze, in his mind, his mother was his wife, and he didn't get her person, but their hearts were always together, and they were buried deep here. King De turned the mechanism on the tombstone, and the tombstone turned, revealing a downward stone staircase.

Helan Xue was stunned, King De had already taken her hand and walked down. Below is the tomb, the tomb is flat and spacious, the bluestone wall and the top of the room, the stone wall is the portrait of the mother of different ages, from the age of five, until her death, and then the author imagines what she looks like when she grows older, one a year, the latest one is painted on the day of this year's birthday. Helan Xue looked at them one by one, constantly touching the people on the portrait, she seemed to see her mother's appearance changing year by year, she had a beautiful face, even if she was nearly forty years old now, she looked only about thirty, but her temperament was more noble and dignified. One of them, and the appearance of her holding herself, when she was only four or five years old, is exactly what she looked like when she was a child, the little face that has seen beauty for the first time with a smile, is looking up at her mother, this is painted when she escaped.
