This trip is about to come to an end, and this night, after Xiufei's arrangement, He Xuan finally met with Mrs. Meng.

Along the way, He Xuan's mood was very uneasy, although she had made a lot of psychological preparations before coming, but when she really wanted to meet, she still felt very nervous.

Seeing He Xuan, Mrs. Meng was about to give a gift, but was suddenly supported by He Xuan.

"Madame, don't do that, junior...... The younger generation can't afford it. He Xuan thought for a while, and then said to Xiu Fei, "Uncle Xiu, I have something to say and want to talk to my wife in private, so you can wait for me outside." ”

Xiu Fei nodded, all these years, although he has been taking care of this lady, but Xiu Fei has also guarded his duty, if he didn't accompany He Xuan today, let alone at this time, even during the day, Xiu Fei would never set foot in any room in this small courtyard except the kitchen.

Seeing Xiu Fei walk out, He Xuan covered the door, turned around, came to Mrs. Meng, pulled off her clothes, and knelt on the ground with her knees.

"Weichen He Xuan, please say hello to the mother."

Just this sentence shocked Mrs. Meng all of a sudden.

"You...... What are you doing, I don't know what you mean. If you have anything to say, get up and say it again. ”

Seeing Mrs. Meng's face turn pale all of a sudden, He Xuan knew that her guess was not wrong, this woman definitely had something to do with today's saint.

He Xuan didn't get up, lowered her head and said: "Although I don't know the position of Niangniang, but that day, in the palace, the emperor personally showed Weichen the portrait of Niangniang, and instructed Weichen to find the trace of Niangniang......"

"After all these years, he still can't let go?" Mrs. Meng turned her face to the side, wiped the tears welling up from her eyes, and asked in a low voice.

"Although the emperor didn't say it explicitly, the meaning of his thoughts was overflowing."

Mrs. Meng sighed, shook her head, stood up, and helped He Xuan up. Then, he pulled He Xuan to sit beside him.

"I'm not a mother, and I've never been...... Therefore, Lord He doesn't have to make such a big gift to me, an old woman from the countryside, I really can't afford it. ”

"But ......"

"I think there's been a lot of speculation ever since you saw that portrait. Alas...... It's been twenty-five years, and he only let me die, isn't it great! ”

"Mother's ......"

"Don't call me a sissy......"

He Xuan bit her lip and said, "Mrs. Meng, juniors, juniors do have a lot of doubts in their hearts, I don't know if Mrs. Meng can explain a thing or two for juniors!" ”

"These things are all old, and it would be better if you knew less."

He Xuan smiled bitterly and said, "I know that too...... But there are some things that I don't understand, and I really can't sleep. If the lady is not too embarrassed, let the younger generation understand a thing or two. ”

Hearing He Xuan say this, Mrs. Meng looked at her, smiled, and said, "You and your father really have some similarities...... Then, I'll tell you a story. ”

He Xuan nodded.

"Let's not talk about which dynasty or generation it was. It is only said that the emperor at that time had two sons under his knees, both of whom were outstanding and knowledgeable. The eldest prince is diligent, but what about the second prince...... Since he was a child, he has no desire to compete for the throne, but he just wants to be his idle prince. I feel more at ease that way. ”

Despite this, these two princes are also sophisticated in their studies. The emperor also loves him. When the second prince was seventeen or eighteen years old, two years before and after, there were two champions in the same township, and the second prince and these two people also hit it off at first sight and became friends. One day, these three people visited the lake and met the daughter of the generalissimo of soldiers and horses at that time. It is also this young lady who has such a fate in her life, after the second prince saw her, he never forgot her, and the two of them passed on the book, and they really liked it. ”

However, this is above the officialdom, no matter which dynasty or generation, there is a storm without warning. This generalissimo of soldiers and horses is usually a bit arrogant and arrogant, and he is not very good at managing his own official ways, so when someone reported that he had a close personal relationship with the enemy country and intended to peep into the society, the emperor actually believed it...... Such a serious crime, naturally, is indispensable to raid the family and exterminate the clan, so the marshal only has that daughter, although he will not be beheaded, but he also ended up with the fate of being an official slave. ”

On the way to exile, the escort officer wanted to commit violence against the woman, but fortunately, the second prince and his two friends wore veils as if they had descended from heaven, rescued the woman, and protected her in the palace. In addition to being grateful to the prince for saving his life, the woman was also grateful to the prince for his unwavering indevotional efforts under such circumstances, and was willing to give up all the battles for the throne and devote herself to the prince. ”

Not long after the incident, the first emperor returned to heaven, and the eldest prince deserved to inherit the throne. He also knows a little about his brother's affairs, but he is also willing to turn a blind eye and just go over like that, but he just asks the second prince not to give this woman a name, otherwise, when the court officials talk about it in the future, I am afraid that he will not be able to excuse his brother. ”

But at this time, the woman had the child of the second prince, and in order to protect the safety of the mother and son, the second prince quietly ordered the mother and son to be sent to a secluded town in the south...... During that time, this woman thought a lot, as long as she gave birth to a daughter, so that there would be a lot less trouble...... On the eve of childbirth, the infatuated prince also came to the woman's side in person to accompany her to give birth. ”

However, what she hoped for was often unattainable, and this woman gave birth to a boy for the second prince. And on the day of production, the new emperor died unexpectedly, and the whole country was shocked. Although the queen of the current dynasty was also more than two months pregnant, the country could not be without a monarch for a day, so the second prince was urgently recalled to the capital, that is, the throne. ”

Speaking of this, Mrs. Meng looked at He Xuan, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes again, and then continued: "The second prince is on the throne, so he moved his mind to take the woman who has given birth to a dragon son for herself back to the palace and give her a noble position. But after the woman gave birth, her body was weak, and she waited for nearly half a year. Just as she was approaching, the former queen, who was already the queen mother, gave birth to her and the emperor's son...... In this way, there are two completely different voices in the court, one is that the second prince has already ascended the throne, which is justifiable; But another voice, because the second prince has not yet married a wife and has children, asks him to return the throne to the newborn emperor, and the queen mother will assist in the government......"

"You can guess what happened next. Naturally, the woman and her child became the target of public criticism. Just when the emperor took them into Beijing, the killer arrived here one step ahead of them. ”

"Maybe the mother and son should not die, and the people sent by the Queen Mother turned out to be the two close friends of the second prince. The Queen Mother kept their families in control and threatened them to do things for themselves. The two had no choice but to do it. But the two have never been able to attack the mother and son, especially the general, until that day, the woman did not know that the general has always been in love with her, but because of the exchange of hearts between her and the second prince, she has never expressed it. ”

The two set a fire and put a mother and baby who had died of famine on the road, and saved the lives of the mother and son. Because of the situation at that time, the Queen Mother and her party may not believe it, so after the two thought of a way, the general found the woman to hide, and the civil official found the royal blood to the foster family......"

Speaking of this, Mrs. Meng looked at He Xuan, who had been sitting there quietly and listening, and asked, "The story is here, it should be considered an end." But ......"

"And what's next?"

Mrs. Meng nodded, "More than ten years ago, the woman's hiding place seemed to have been discovered, and the general had to relocate the woman again, but such an action attracted the attention of the Queen Mother's party, and the general had to ...... in order to protect the woman and the society of the country Had to sacrifice himself......"

Speaking of this, Mrs. Meng's tears burst out of her eyes, which was menacing. He Xuan looked at her silently, He Xuan thought that she should have matched everyone in this story with the characters in reality.

So that's it!

That's how it is......

"Son, it's my father who I'm sorry for you, if it weren't for my ......"

"Madame...... Needless to say...... The general's move, although it is not a righteous act, but for the sake of his beloved and for the balance of the country, the people live in peace, and it is worth it. ”

After He Xuan finished speaking, she stood up, smiled bitterly, and said, "It's late, junior, just leave." ”

"Lord He...... Old ...... The old body still has one thing to ask for...... Please help ...... adults."

Saying that, Mrs. Meng actually knelt in front of He Xuan. He Xuan panicked, hurriedly turned around, and helped Mrs. Meng up.

"Madame, if you have any orders, just say it. You and my father are friends, so naturally you are my elders. There is no reason why I should not do what you have commanded. ”

"It's not a command, it's a request. I know what you're here for, but I'm still grateful to you for letting me see my children again...... Don't come here again...... If there are too many people, it will naturally arouse the suspicion of others. My whereabouts, don't tell anyone. I exist, and don't let anyone know about it anymore. Especially Liao Yong, he can't know who he is...... Never! Otherwise, whether he can get his rightful position or not, it will only be a dead end for him...... All I want is for him to live in peace, so that my decades of patience will not be in vain...... Promise me to take good care of him and protect him, is that okay? ”

Looking at the mother in front of her, He Xuan's eyes were also weeping, she nodded vigorously, and said, "I should do this!" I will protect Liao Yong just like my father protected you back then. ”
