Chapter 279: It Was Her
At this time, the weather is improving, and even the wind is warm.
Xiao Mingqian, who had just returned to the dynasty after a great victory, also won the title of general and was envied by an unknown number of people. Many dignitaries and nobles quietly threw olive branches to him, hoping to have the opportunity to have a dinner with him, but they were all rejected by him.
"Mother, the child is now alive, but unfortunately you can't see it anymore. But rest assured, your child will never forget what you went through. Everything that should have belonged to me, everything that was taken from me, I will let those people get it back. ”
Xiao Mingqian's face was full of iron, and he said these words fiercely. After speaking, he spilled the wine in the cup directly on the ground, and the mellow wine was immediately absorbed by the dry and cracked soil in front of him.
Looking at this scene, Xiao Mingqian's face became more and more terrifying.
There was no need to ask, everything in front of him had already made him realize a fact.
During the time he left the palace, everyone forgot that there was once a concubine in this Southern Mo country who won the emperor's favor, and forgot that he, the fourth prince who was still alive in the world.
With such a dry land, it is obvious that no one has taken care of it at all, as if the person buried here is not the former concubine of the Southern Mo Kingdom, but a cat and a dog.
The pain in the heart came suddenly, Xiao Mingqian couldn't help but bend down to cover his abdomen, and beads of sweat began to appear from his forehead.
This time back to the court, the whole people were full of joy, and as early as the city gate, they could already see the welcome hall organized by the people.
It seems that everyone is laughing for him, but in fact, even the current emperor, his biological father, has never really cared about himself.
Otherwise, it had been more than half a day since he returned from the battlefield, how could no one ask him if he had been injured?
It's a battlefield, and the people you face are all brave opponents, and there will never be good men and women.
It's a miracle to survive such a horrible scene.
The more I thought about it, the more intense the pain in my abdomen became. In the end, he even knelt in front of the concubine's grave, with one hand against his abdomen and the other on the ground, as a way to keep his sanity.
"Fourth Prince, are you alright?" Suddenly, a crisp female voice came, and Xiao Mingqian forgot about the past with his cloudy eyes.
I saw a woman holding a large bouquet of freshly picked chrysanthemums in her hand, rushing in her direction with an anxious face, shouting her name as she walked.
When the woman arrived at her side, she reached out to help with a concerned face, but Xiao Mingqian directly grabbed her wrist and kept bending it backwards.
Intense pain filled her body, and the woman's face instantly turned pale, and she kept crying out in pain.
"Who are you? Why is it here? What exactly is the intention? Xiao Mingqian forcibly endured the pain in his abdomen, and quietly looked at the person in front of him with a pair of eyes, his eyes full of inquiring.
After being on the battlefield for so long, his vigilance was too strong.
Moreover, after the analysis just now, he was already able to confirm it. During the time since he left, the tomb of the concubine should have not been cleaned by anyone.
How could it be so good that when I came to the tomb to inspect it, a woman suddenly appeared?
"Fourth prince, you misunderstood, I am Mo Wanyin, the righteous daughter of the prime minister. I'm not here today, I've been here quietly for a while. I don't have any purpose, I just want to repay the concubine's kindness. Mo Wanyin's words were intermittent, and her forehead was already sweating profusely because her elbow was completely destroyed.
The meager clothes were also attached to the body because of cold sweat at this time, and with the breeze blowing, I felt a little cold.
"Mo Wanyin? Aren't you the daughter of the Imperial Doctor? How did she become the prime minister's daughter? Even if you want to lie, you have to say something decent to get by, right? Do you really think that because I'm not in the court, I don't know anything? Xiao Mingqian couldn't help sneering and increased the strength in his hand.
only heard a slight "click", as if the sound of a broken bone came out, Mo Wanyin didn't dare to go around in circles any longer.
"Fourth prince, don't you know, my parents were jointly framed by the crown prince and the fifth princess a few days ago, and they have passed away. Just leave me as an only daughter to live in this world, helpless. is still the prime minister kind-hearted, looking at me pitiful, he recognized me as a righteous daughter, and now lives in the prime minister's mansion. ”
When she spoke, Xiao Mingqian kept observing with scrutinizing eyes.
In fact, such a technique is extremely common on the battlefield.
Under the intense pain, it is impossible for the average person to think about the fact of lying.
Mo Wanyin said so many words one after another in such a painful situation, and there was no intermittent time in between. If it's not the truth she's telling, it's that her mental abilities are too strong.
But people who can have such a strong psychology are usually sent to other countries as female spies.
Although there are all kinds of contradictions and disputes in this palace every day, they are all petty fights after all.
Xiao Mingqian looked at the other party for a while, and decided that what the other party said was the truth, so he let go of his hand.
Mo Wanyin, who felt the breath of freedom, immediately kneaded it with her other hand, trying to relieve the pain.
"You can rest assured, it didn't hurt your muscles and bones at all. You only need to go to the imperial medical bureau to get some ointment, and insist on rubbing it for three days, and this painful feeling will disappear. Xiao Mingqian coldly dropped a sentence and walked in the direction of his mansion.
Mo Wanyin kept following him like this, and didn't speak for a long time.
"Didn't you say you were going to visit my mother's grave? If I'm not mistaken, you haven't done this yet, and now what are you doing with me? A loud shout came, like thunder, making Mo Wanyin in the back immediately stunned in place.
As if afraid that the situation just now would happen again, Mo Wanyin stopped halfway, far more than a hand's distance from Xiao Mingqian.
After hesitating for a long time, Mo Wanyin nodded silently as if she had made up her mind: "The fourth prince guessed right, I did want your help here this time, and I ...... it."
Before her words fell, Xiao Mingqian's sneering voice was already heard.
I saw him smile forward and backward, and then raised the corners of his mouth and said contemptuously: "Help? Do you think I'll help a woman like you who doesn't have any relationship with me? I don't have such a great kindness. ”
I went out for such a long time, but I didn't expect to meet such a silly and sweet eldest sister as soon as I came back. Don't you know that this palace has always been based on profit?
That's right, she is the daughter of the Imperial Doctor and the righteous daughter of the Prime Minister, but even if she has these titles that no one else has?
She is her, and she can't represent their father, let alone make decisions on their behalf.
What's more, he, Xiao Mingqian, has never liked women talking to him like this.
In the face of Xiao Mingqian's indifferent attitude, Mo Wanyin did not panic. In fact, so far, all the reactions of the other party are under her control.
If Xiao Mingqian didn't play his cards like this, she would feel a little strange.
"Fourth Prince, I know that my ability now does not make you think that you can benefit, but there is a saying that you should have heard, the enemy of your enemy is your friend. We all have a common enemy, the crown prince and the fifth princess, but there is one more thing you may not know. I have a relationship with Leng Leyin, and I am also a sister. Those who have hurt her, I will make them pay back one by one. ”
Mo Wanyin stood in place and said fiercely, especially when she was talking about Leng Leyin, a touch of ruthlessness flashed in the corners of her eyes.
Although it was only for a moment, it was still not captured by the keen Xiao Mingqian.
When Leng Leyin's three words came into his ears, Xiao Mingqian's figure couldn't help but be stunned.
In fact, he didn't know very well, obviously he didn't have much intersection with Leng Leyin before, but after arriving at the border, whenever he had any sadness, he would think of Leng Leyin.
She is like a hope-like existence, giving him the courage and purpose to survive in such a difficult and painful environment.
"Since you said that Tong Le Yin is a sister, then you should know who killed her, right?" Xiao Mingqian's tone changed instantly, and his gaze was cold and sharp and terrifying.
Just looking in the direction of Mo Wanyin, it was as if she was going to kill someone directly.
Mo Wanyin didn't hesitate at all, and clearly spit out the names of the two people from her mouth: "The crown prince is the same as the fifth princess." ”
It's the two of them again? It's the two of them again!
Xiao Mingqian's hands were clenched into fists, and although he only stood stiffly in place, he could feel the raging anger from him.
Once or twice, the people I love the most around me have been victimized by these two people, even if I train my character to not be observed by others in the frontier, there is really no way to continue to tolerate it this time.
"I know very well that although the fourth prince and Le Yin were given a marriage contract by the emperor, before that, the two of you had no deep friendship at all. Maybe after knowing who killed Le Yin, he won't help get justice. But there is one thing that has been holding in my heart for a long time, and I have to say it today. ”
Mo Wanyin didn't care whether the person in front of her would suddenly go crazy, and slowly approached, and her voice was calm: "Ten years ago, I don't know if the fourth prince still has an impression. During the autumn hunting grounds, the four princes once fell off a cliff and were in danger. At that time, there was a girl who saved the lives of the four princes. Although the girl did not give her first name, she returned home and told her best sister about it. ”
As if something suddenly fell in his heart, Xiao Mingqian slowly raised his head and looked at the person in front of him, his tone couldn't help but tremble: "She...... Who is it? ”
"She's the Joy."
Although he already had a certain idea in his heart, when the result was said and everything was defined, Xiao Mingqian's whole person was not calm.
"Original....... It turned out to be her, and I said why there was a familiar feeling in her. ”
