Chapter 1

In July, the cicadas chirped, Xiaobai sat alone in the study, holding a bamboo slip, but he only felt impetuous, without a word.

The red color swept into the window, blowing the broken hair in front of Xiaobai's forehead, he got up and looked at the remnant summer scene outside the window, and his heart was as cold as an ice cave.

The elder brother's great revenge was not avenged, and he reigned for three years and twice to war, but both ended in failure. If you know that you can't hide it after all, it's better to tell Green Ji the truth earlier, and don't think about it from time to time.

always thought that she was the person who understood him best, no matter whether she succeeded or failed, she always stayed by his side, gently and delicately soothing all his frustrations. They were grinding their ears and temples, and they were full of affection, but unexpectedly, one of them was inadvertent, and this matter became a gap between them, which was difficult to cross.

Just when he was upset, the hot atmosphere came to an abrupt end, and a cool breeze blew outside the window, Xiaobai walked to the front of the palace to look, only to see that above the palace building, black clouds were pressing on the top, and heavy rain was coming.

Under the thick clouds and thunder, a person ran quickly along the winding palace road. The passing palace people hurriedly flashed to the sides to make way for him. In a moment, the man had already rushed to the front, and Xiaobai saw clearly that the person who came was none other than the inner servant mink.

When the inner servant saw Xiaobai, he immediately bowed: "Your Excellency, it's not good, Mrs. Jun, she ......"

When Xiaobai heard the words "Mrs. Jun", his heart chuckled, he stared at the prostrate figure in front of him, and shouted, "What's wrong with Mrs. Jun?" Say it! ”

In the dormitory of the prince of Qi Palace, hundreds of palace attendants dressed in plain clothes, knelt on both sides of the palace road, bowing their heads in mourning. Xiaobai came to the palace gate with the inner servant mink, although he had made enough preparations, he was still shocked by the vision.

In order to conceal the news of his death, Xiaobai had never paid tribute to Gongzi in the palace, but he didn't expect that when the news of Gongzijiao's death spread inside and outside the palace, there would be so many palace people who rushed to remember his brother when they heard the news. Xiaobai looked at it, and as far as the eye could see, it was all white, which was shocking. Everyone looked sad and sad. Looking at Zhang Zhang's sad face swaying like a marquee in front of him, Xiaobai's body tightened and suddenly panicked. A few days ago, she broke the peach plank, lifted the partition, learned the news of the death of the child, and locked herself in the room, no matter what he said or did, she ignored it. Who knew that when it finally came out today, such a battle was created.

In the huge ancient hall, the window edges were dilapidated, the dust was white, and Lu Ji knelt in front of the son's spiritual position, her face was bloodless. In front of her slender body was the ten-string Haibao piano of Gongzi. Lu Ji looked at the piano, and only then did she understand why Gongzi Jie waved his sword and broke the string, but he didn't hold back and rolled down tears.

What happened in the past few days, she didn't want to think about it at all, how much she hoped that everything from Luoyang to Qi to find the heroes of the world was just a dream, but Gongzijie's voice and smile always appeared in her mind unexpectedly, reminding her that all this was true, the world was cruel, and the most beautiful boy in her heart had already died in that chaotic battle.

But the person she trusted the most, her husband, deceived her about it, and saw her like a fool, thinking that Gongzi had retreated, but in order to avoid suspicion, she stayed away from the court and indulged in the mountains and rivers in Yandi. She thought that after many years, Xiaobai had no mustard in her heart, even if she asked someone to send Gongzi the winter clothes she had cut herself, he would not mind, but she didn't expect him to be so calm, just because the people had already disappeared. Thinking of this, the resentment in Midorihime's heart couldn't help but become a little heavier.

But instead of resenting Xiaobai, she still resents herself more. That day, in Mount Tai, in order to break the infatuation of Gongzi, she resolutely said, "If I can really do it all over again, I would rather never meet Gongzi." ”

It's hard to imagine how desperate he was, being forced to the end step by step. If she knew that Taishan's farewell was goodbye, she would never say such cruel words anyway, and now that she thinks about it, why not cone her heart?

A figure was cast outside the gate, and Lu Ji followed the shadow, but saw that the person who came was not Xiaobai, but Guan Zhong, and Uncle Bao followed closely with a heavy face. Needless to say, the intention of these two people was not to be said, Midorihime didn't say a word, knelt in the hall, and ignored them.

Guan Zhong and Uncle Bao naturally knew that Lu Ji had a grudge in her heart, and this resentment was not only against Xiaobai, but against all those who knew about it and kept her in the dark. Even so, when Uncle Bao saw Lu Ji's actions, he couldn't help but admonish: "Even if Mrs. Jun wants to mourn Gongzijiao, she should take into account her identity." There was such a battle in the palace, which was comparable to a national funeral, how did Mrs. Jun let the king deal with herself. ”

Midori spoke slowly, her voice dull: "Always think about the surviving, is the deceased sacrificing in vain?" ”

Uncle Bao hurriedly said: "How can you sacrifice in vain?" Why has the gentleman been so frequent in the past few years, and no one has persuaded him? Isn't it just that he is lonely and angry in his heart, and he wants to take revenge on his son? But he is not only the husband of Mrs. Jun, the brother of Gongzi Jiao, but also the monarch of Qi State! Every move in the Qi Palace implicates Sheji, isn't Mrs. Jun worried about the Sheji of Qi at all? ”

At this time, Xiao Bai was slowly walking towards the main hall, and the palace attendants in the court saw that Xiao Bai was here, and he fell to the ground prostrate one after another, not daring to make a sound. Xiaobai walked to the front of the hall, heard Lu Ji and Uncle Bao arguing, immediately stopped, stood silently under the corridor, and paid attention to the sound in the hall.

I only heard Lu Ji smile sadly, and said coldly: "What a king of a country, a good country." As long as it is about these eight characters, can any mistakes and omissions be forgiven? ”

Guan Zhong has not entered the palace of Gongzi for several years, and when he came here today, he knew what it meant to see things and think about people. He tried his best to control his emotions and bowed his hand to Lu Ji: "Guan has been a professor for many years, and I really have a relationship to see Mrs. Jun paying tribute to my son here." But Mrs. Jun must know that with the temperament of the son, if she knows the spring, she will be uneasy when she sees what you are doing today. There are many people in the palace, if Mrs. Jun wants to pay tribute, she may wish to move to Shuzi Garden, and set up a private sacrifice in the mourning hall in the garden, so as not to give the truth. The Si people are gone, and I hope that Mrs. Jun's festival will be smooth. ”

"Condolences?" Midori Ji sneered, "Doctor Guan is really transmuted. Thinking that the doctor assisted the son at the beginning, it can be said that he was dead, and now he is still dead, but the lord who serves has become a little white. ”

When Uncle Bao heard Lu Ji say this, he was immediately angry, and said in a defensive voice: "What did Mrs. Jun say! If there is no Guan Yiwu, how can the Qi country be updated today? What's more, letting Guan Yiwu assist Xiaobai is Gongzijiao's last wish, and not telling Mrs. Jun about his death is also Gongzijiao's last wish! ”

"I am the descendant of the Dabu lineage, and I can calculate what Gongzi's last wish was at that time. But if the doctor has ever thought that if Xiaobai was willing to collect his troops and return to Qi in time after defeating the Lu army in Qianshi, instead of chasing after him and even approaching the city, how could Gongzi Qing's father force Gongzi to kill Gongzi in a hurry? Could it be that Xiaobai has no responsibility for the death of his son? ”

Hearing Lu Ji's words, Xiaobai outside the door was as if he had been struck by a muffled lightning, and he was stunned. But even if he was wronged in his heart, Xiaobai still gritted his teeth and did not move half a step.

Uncle Bao sighed and replied, "Why don't you know that you have your own responsibility? Because of this, he kept forcing himself to learn how to govern the country, asking for talents everywhere, day and night, in order to make the Qi country as strong as possible. If Mrs. Jun can recall what the son Xiaobai looked like back then, and then look at the gentleman in the court today, she will definitely know that it is none other than Mrs. Jun and her son! ”

Guan Zhong saw that Lu Ji was unmoved, and continued to persuade: "Since Guan met Mrs. Jun for the first time, I know that Mrs. Jun is not an ordinary person. Guan Mou did his best to assist his son to ascend the throne, and even did not hesitate to trigger the First Battle of Qilu, and he also used Mrs. Jun for this. But time has changed, and now looking back on the past, although it is only a few years apart, it is like a world away. Mrs. Jun is a big Bu lineage, and Guan is only from the market, and Guan is a sigh of virtue and virtue. Even so, Guan Mou also knew that Jun Shang was definitely not a Xiao Xiaozhi who deceived and used others. The reason why he was able to win the throne was because he was able to break what ordinary people could not break and what ordinary people could not accept. Mrs. Jun imagined that if Jun Shang had not completely defeated Guan Mou, if Gongzi was still alive, then Guan Mou's idea of helping Gongzi to restore the throne would never stop, and the two of them would continue to fight each other. At that time, what was the benefit of Yu Gongzi, Yu Junshang, Yu Jun's wife, and even the world? Mrs. Jun is here today to pay tribute to the son, but if the sky changes slightly, the two of them are in different places, who will Mrs. Jun pay tribute to here today? Who will be the one who is complaining? Didn't Childe see through such a situation and kill himself in order to fulfill all of us? The revenge has not been avenged, and the whole country must work together to avenge the son, what is the benefit of Mrs. Jun's excessive attachment to the past! ”

Guan Zhong's words seemed to touch Lu Ji, she was silent for a long time, and replied: "Even if I know that there is no point, I must do something for him, otherwise I will really feel uneasy in my heart......"

Speaking of this, Midorihime choked up and couldn't say any more. Guan Zhong and Uncle Bao glanced at each other, and didn't know how to persuade again, so they had to retreat quietly.
