Chapter 12: The Cry of a Baby on a Snowy Night
On the winter solstice of the eighth year of Xuanxia Jianyuan, it snowed heavily in Huadu.
The door of the Mu Mansion is closed, and the lanterns on the porch are fluttering in the wind, which seems to be ordinary, but the house is heavily guarded, and the maids outside the East Wing Bedroom shuttle, and hot water towels are readily available. From time to time, there were heart-rending shouts of "ahhh And Zuo Xin, who is only fourteen years old indoors, serves "Princess, hard, hard." "I didn't even invite a stable woman.
Mu Liancheng stomped anxiously back and forth in the study on the west side of the hall, and Xiao Yihuai couldn't help but persuade: "General, don't be impatient, with Doctor Ye here, what are you worried about." ”
Ye Xuan, the prime minister's wife, who was holding a two-and-a-half-year-old child in her hand, reprimanded her husband: "What do you know, although the princess is the third child, but this time she was born prematurely, can you not worry." ”
Ye Nanguang sat by the window, his eyes closed and he didn't squeak. I don't know how long it took, but I heard a baby cry of "Wow-" from the opposite bedroom, and then I heard Zuo Xin shouting from the room: "General Huiyu, it's a little daughter, mother and daughter are safe." ”
Everyone in the study looked happy and congratulated each other, no one noticed that an ancient sword suddenly appeared on the low table, the red light of the dragon pattern flashed, and the two-and-a-half-year-old Xiao Muchong left his mother's arms, pouted his ass and climbed onto the low table, holding the hilt of the ancient sword with both hands, "Zheng-" pulled the sword in half, and suddenly the ancient sword emitted a dazzling light. Everyone was shocked, isn't that the light that can only be emitted by the disappearing Huoyun Sword, I saw that the little doll holding the handle of the sword, turned around and smiled at his mother, the corner of his mouth was still stained with the end of the dim sum he had just eaten, but after he let go of the sword, he closed his eyes and fainted.
Ye Nanguang, who had been meditating and was out of the dust, opened his eyes and glanced at Mu Liancheng and Xiao Yihuai. They were glad in their hearts, fortunately, Murong Yu was born prematurely, otherwise today's scene would be full of generals' mansions and prime minister's mansions.
The red feather sword is born with the descendants of the Murong royal family, or a hundred years of life, or more than ten years of life, red feather is born, the fire cloud awakens, and only the red phoenix and fire dragon can pull out the fire cloud sword, the red feather extinguishes, the fire cloud hides, and the fire cloud sword changes shape and hides in the world.
Mu Liancheng looked at the sword, obviously, the Huoyun Sword that once belonged to him, the Huoyun Sword that could lead the Huoyun Army to conquer the world, and the Huoyun Sword that had been lost for several years after Murong Yu's willingness to faithfully protect his promise to the former emperor was destroyed, and now he was recalled by his newborn daughter, and at the same time found his new two-and-a-half-year-old master.
Hanyu Rises ...... Three hundred years ago, Ji Meng, a senior monk of the Foothill Temple, said something before his death, which was spread by the disciples all over the Chiyun Continent, but no one knew the complete version. But the red feather fire cloud has become the existence that the royal family of the four countries both longs for and fears, and Murong Yu, who has always been counted by the royal family as the date of childbirth, gave birth in advance on this snowy day on the winter solstice. The snow outside the window was getting heavier and heavier, but the guards on the eaves were always on high alert, and even a piece of pine needle would be cautiously noticed. The light in the study was on until dawn.
A day later, the Mu Mansion reported to the royal family that Princess Murong gave birth to a daughter, and the royal family announced a congratulatory decree overnight to inquire in detail about the delivery of Murong Yu and the physical condition of the mother and daughter, and confirmed that Mu Ziyan was born without any abnormality, and the palace rewarded all kinds of treasures.
Two days later, Cheng Yue, the last young general of the Red Feather Army who had been dismissed, left Mufu. Since then, he has wandered the world, never returned to Huadu, nor returned to Mufu.
Half a month later, the emperor told Mu Ziyan, the newly born daughter of Mu Mansion, to sign a marriage contract with Xiao Muchong, who was still unconscious in the Prime Minister's Mansion, to rejoice in the unconscious Xiao Mu Chong, and to make peace forever, and the next day Ye Nanguang took Xiao Muchong, the fourth son of the Prime Minister's Mansion, who was terminally ill, to leave Huadu and go to the Lingnan Mountains to recuperate.
A month later, Mu Liancheng returned to Beijing to report on his work, and left Huadu with his wife and daughter for Beisai. In a secretly built secluded room in the Mu Mansion, a seemingly ordinary ancient sword lay quietly.
Two years later, the eldest son of the emperor fell off a cliff while hunting on the outskirts of the city, and the second son of the emperor suddenly had a bad cold, and he cried out in June. The queen was depressed, the concubine acted as the harem, and her son Nalan Zhe was named the crown prince.
Mu Liancheng stood in front of the window of the study, looking at the moonlight in the courtyard, recalling the situation twelve years ago, and thinking in his heart, the Huoyun Sword should be given to that child. Murong Yu put on a robe for him, "Liancheng, this debriefing has been delayed for half a year, can we still go back." ”
"Yes, don't worry. Mu Liancheng turned to look at his wife, how many enemies they had defeated together, how many difficulties they had overcome, this time was nothing.
"General, princess" Xin'er looked nervous and reported outside the door: "The ancient sword in the secluded room is gone. "During the day, the secret guards in the mansion went to the palace in waves, and escorted Murong Yu to Fahua Temple, it seems that there have been people in the mansion, Xin'er has searched all the places and found nothing missing, but found that the ancient sword is missing.
"Don't be nervous, that sword either flew away by itself, or was taken by Zi Yan," Mu Liancheng thought for a while and said to Xin'er, "The boxes of salt and sand that Hui'er sent back from Beisai will send someone to a few generals as soon as possible, and by the way, send a box to the prince as well, he seems to be very interested in the topographic map of the sand table." ”
