Chapter 56: Lin Yuan struggles
When he was hesitating, Xiao Pingjing leaned over and said, "Okay, good!" Yuan Qi, you can practice and take a look, let my eldest brother point out. If you think you're not bored practicing alone, then I'll feed you? ”
Xiao Yuanqi decided to learn martial arts with the Marquis of Mozi for a short time, so he actually hadn't really learned anything, he was beaten, and he learned some moves in the beating, but that move was the style of the East China Sea after all.
Xiao Yuanqi looked at the two brothers hesitantly, both of them had sincerity in their eyes, and Lin Xi, who was standing on the side, was as indifferent as usual. In the end, Xiao Yuanqi still nodded: "Then Pingjing, have you played tricks with me?" ”
Xiao Pingzhang smiled and handed the sword to him, his eyes full of encouragement. Then the two of them came together. Xiao Yuanqi did not deliberately hide his newly learned style, and used it in his tricks with Xiao Pingjing.
After the two of them took dozens of moves, they retracted their momentum, Xiao Ping smiled and hugged Xiao Yuanqi's shoulders and said, "Yuanqi, okay, you!" It's much better now than it used to be. ”
Xiao Yuanqi casually said a few words modestly, and looked at Xiao Pingzhang's face from time to time, but Xiao Pingzhang's face did not change at all, could it be that he didn't see his martial arts path? It's almost impossible, right?
Xiao Pingzhang ignored Xiao Yuanqi's anxious thoughts, pointed out the shortcomings of the two of them one by one, and then he turned his head and comforted the person who seemed to be humbly listening.
"Yuan Qi, I know that Mrs. Tai's death has made you sad, and I suddenly know that your father and mother are not what you have seen and known, and both your mind and situation have been quite devastated. But there are always many unsatisfactory things in life, and you don't have to be too depressed. ”
In vain heard Xiao Pingzhang mention his father, Xiao Yuanqi was a little frightened, could it be that Xiao Pingzhang knew that Pu Yangying told him about his father? Thinking of the situation when Pu Yangying said this to him, do you also know Pu Yangying's evaluation of his biological father Lu Yuan? The heart of the first defense quietly relaxed a little, Xiao Pingzhang was naturally much better because of this incident than it was to notice that the Marquis of Mo Zi was in contact with him.
Xiao Yuanqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, forced a smile on his face, and said softly: "Brother Pingzhang, don't worry, I ...... I get it, it's just uncomfortable. Obviously, my mother has always adhered to her etiquette duties, never caused trouble, and taught her son carefully, and everyone told me how good my father was...... But in a blink of an eye, her mother was killed, and she left a suicide note to expose the crime, and even keeping filial piety for her had to be your majesty's grace...... Then Pu Yangying told me that if my father had not done anything wrong, my mother and I would not have ended up like this...... It's really hard for me to imagine such a truth, and the father I have always revered is the kind of person I hate the most who corrupts military funds and endangers the border......"
The more he talked about it, the more sad he felt in his heart, and his eyes were already red. These are all his heartfelt words, why doesn't he want to stand in the sun and laugh and play casually like Xiao Pingjing? If he hadn't gone through this, why would he be so confused, why would he be in the current situation?
Xiao Pingjing and Lin Xi were a little surprised, they really didn't know about King Laiyang. What they know is that the Prince of Laiyang, Yunwen Yunwu, was amazingly talented, but he died of a violent illness when he was young, and the Empress Dowager Liu was too sad and unwilling to see people, so the King of Laiyang became a taboo, and therefore Mrs. Laiyang and Yuan Qi were marginalized and had to be free-range. Now that I think about it, if this is the case, then with Xiao Xin and Xiao Tingsheng as people, it is impossible to just take care of them secretly, but on the surface, they are left to fend for themselves.
For a while, the two looked at each other, not knowing what to say. Xiao Pingjing was so worried that he wanted to say something to comfort him, but his usual chattering mouth couldn't say anything at this time, so he had to look at Xiao Pingzhang for help.
Xiao Pingzhang, who received his younger brother's eyes, shook his head invisibly, made a look, and motioned him not to make a sound. Xiao Yuanqi meant that he understood this truth, but he understood it, and he couldn't let go of it in his heart, and he needed to look at it himself. But Xiao Pingzhang understands that it is impossible to wait for him to see it for himself, no one will guide him, and with the ill-intentioned Mozi Marquis by his side, he will not only not be able to figure it out, but will become more and more paranoid like Ye Lingzi led by Pu Yangying.
Xiao Pingzhang quietly waited for Xiao Yuanqi to calm down, and then asked gently: "Yuanqi, do you have any plans for the future?" ”
Xiao Yuanqi's mind flashed the words of Pu Yangying and the Marquis of Mozi.
"People like Lu Yuan are destined to be unsuccessful, do you know why? Because he has greed and ambition, but he is not ruthless enough to let go of those so-called pasts and so-called affection. He is just like you now, thinking that the path he has chosen can be turned back, and what he has done can be made up. But in fact? harming others and oneself, I don't know where I am buried after death, and I don't even have a tombstone. What did his brother, who kept saying that he wanted to trust him with life and death, fight for him? ”
"Because of the honor and authority of the Changlin Palace, Xiao Pingzhang has an adopted son who can enjoy his current status."
"It's pitiful, it's just that someone condescends to come here and knock on the door, and you're satisfied? There is also a father who is a prince, and in terms of blood, your identity should be more noble, and now one person is infinitely beautiful, and one person is like dust, are you really not unwilling? ”
"Think about what you want."
What exactly does he want? Xiao Yuanqi was dumbfounded, he really wanted to make a difference, instead of just doing nothing and struggling in the mud forever. He wanted to get back what his father and mother had lost, but was it possible?
Facing Xiao Pingzhang's gentle and encouraging gaze, Xiao Yuanqi opened his mouth, and it took a while before he spoke: "It's not that I haven't thought about it, my father and mother are not allowed to sacrifice now, I think if I can have a meritorious reputation, I hope Your Majesty can allow it...... Permit me to worship my father and my mother in the open. But...... Is this possible? ”
Xiao Pingzhang stared at him for a long time, and said: "It is understandable that Your Majesty is benevolent if your children want to worship their parents, but after all, they have committed a big crime, and it is impossible to worship openly, I believe you know the reason." It's just that...... Yuan Qi, is it really because of this reason that you want to achieve fame? ”
Xiao Yuanqi was silent, he asked himself, although this is one of the reasons, but it is not the main one. What he really cares about is the difference between the clouds and the mud, but how dare he say such a thought.
There was no answer, but he already knew what Xiao Yuanqi meant. As his father and he said, the power is moving, how many people are lost in it, Yuan Qi has begun to have ambitions after all. He was glad that he was able to discover before this ambition grew up, and if he could be guided by a good life, this bad thing would not turn into a good thing.
