Chapter 55: The Storm of Filial Piety
Yan Yue's return to the mansion was a bit earth-shattering, just to guard the emperor, three or four hundred people were sent, and even dozens of guards around the emperor were also sent out. Such a big move is also for one purpose, for fear that Yan Yue will take the opportunity to escape. Today's Yan Yue's status is incomparable? One man is worth a city! Yan Yue only looked at it with amusement. No matter whether Murong Yan sends someone or not, Yan Yue will not leave during the three days of filial piety. Mother, Yan Yue didn't have time to honor her well when she was alive, and now that she is dead, Yan Yue is ready to accompany her in the past three days.
Of course, Mama Zhuang, Chunhua Qiuyue and others also accompanied Yan Yue back to the General's Mansion, but fortunately, Concubine Wan was frightened last night, and heard that the emperor allowed Yan Yue to return to the mansion to observe filial piety for three days, so she didn't dare to do anything. Old man Xiao was even more enthusiastic, and he took the opportunity to instigate Yan Yue to escape. Regardless of whether there were three or four hundred guards, the old man had poison in his hands, and he poisoned those people, and just brought back a good apprentice, which is a good thing for the old man. Yan Yue didn't want to refuse immediately. Just go. Yan Yue would not have walked so silently, Yan Yue wanted that Murong Yan to compensate for the disappointment, and what the gains outweighed the losses.
Of course, Yan Yue began to study drug production seriously, and the purpose of learning was not to harm others, in order to protect herself. Of course, if the other party goes too far, Yan Yue will also act mercilessly.
The place of worship in the mourning hall had already been arranged in the general's mansion, and Yan Yue put on a filial piety robe and knelt in front of her mother's spirit and cried again. The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the son wants to be filial and his relatives are not there. This kind of pain can only be understood after experiencing it, Yan Yue cried, and this cry lasted from morning to noon. And Mama Zhuang and the others knew that they couldn't persuade at this time, but they just kept adding water and clothes at the right time.
If it weren't for the mouthy Chunhua muttering casually, Yan Yue didn't expect that from morning to noon, except for Yan Yue and the girl who was waiting by Li Yunniang's side before, no one else went to Li Yunniang's mourning hall to worship. Li Yunniang, who has no status in this mansion when she is alive, and is even more bullied by others, is so silent even when she is dead.
The girls were a little indignant, and they always felt that even though Li Yunniang was a concubine, she was also a master after all, and this general's mansion was a bit unkind to do so. But Yan Yue doesn't care, no one respects her when she is alive, and what she does after death is just for the living. Yan Yue didn't want to blame her father Yan Wenzhong, she just wanted to quietly keep filial piety to her mother, guarding the mourning hall, and always having the feeling that Yan Yue felt that her mother was still around.
It was only in the evening that Yan Yue's unexpected person came to this mourning hall - Yang Zifang. He bowed respectfully, burned some paper money for Li Yunniang with a solemn face, and bowed three times seriously when he got up again. Yan Yue watched his every move in a daze, and even forgot the etiquette. It wasn't until Yang Zhifang walked to his side and said softly, "Shuyuan Niangniang, please mourn". While returning the salute, he said, "Thank you, I thank you for my mother." ”
Yang Zhifang was speechless for a moment, his eyes only stared at Yan Yue's face blankly, of course, there was no lust in his eyes, some were just surprised and shocked. Yan Yue was also stunned for a while before she understood why Yang Zhifang had this expression, because the birthmark on Yan Yue's face was gone. However, Yang Zhifang quickly realized his gaffe, turned his head and coughed lightly: "I heard that Shuyuan Niangniang hasn't eaten for a day, so it's better to take advantage of this time to eat something. ”
Yang Zifang's tone of speech is extremely inconsistent with his fat figure, fat seems to generally mean honest and rough, but he is such a fat-headed person with a gentle and delicate voice, which always makes people feel that this person is seriously inconsistent. Yan Yue was curious about what this strange man would say to her, so she immediately led the way and led Yang Zhifang towards Li Yunniang's former residence.
"I want to thank my mother first, my mother taught me the method of boiling medicine with rock sugar last time, and I have been eating it tightly, although it is cold today, but the bronchitis of the lowly position has not been redone." Yang Zhifang people still didn't sit down, and bowed deeply again to thank them. Yan Yue remembered in a trance that it seemed that on the day of the Mountaineering Festival, she ordered Xuanyuan Yaohui to climb under the ginkgo tree, picked a lot of ginkgo, and gave one of them to this Yang Zhifang. It's just that when I think of it at this time, I feel that the past is like a dream, Murong Yan at that time, myself at that time, feelings at that time, and dreams at that time are all incredibly beautiful, so beautiful that people cry sadly.
Yang Zhifang paused for a moment when he looked at Yan Yue's distracted face, and thought for a while: "I know that Niangniang is sad and sad at this time, for the immortal death of Niangniang's biological mother, and for Niangniang's own fate. Exchanging people for cities is now a foregone conclusion, and the emperor's words have never changed, not to mention that General Sikong has been ordered to leave at this time. The so-called monarch wants the minister to die, the minister has to die, the minister hopes that Niangniang must not be willful this time, so the matter is very implicated, if Niangniang has the heart to escape, all the people in the general's mansion will be buried with him. ”
Yan Yue couldn't help but smile bitterly, of course Yan Yue understood these truths, why did the man in front of her mention it so carefully. Thinking of this, Yan Yue couldn't help but say with some sarcasm: "Lord Shilang is now the son-in-law of the General's Mansion, aren't you afraid that if I run away, it will also affect Lord Shilang?" ”
Yang Zhifang was silent, and nodded heavily for a while: "Yes, the lowly position was only mixed with an official and a half-position in this Darong Dynasty, and the emperor gave him a marriage and a family, and his father-in-law, the general, gave him several private property shops, so he didn't want to lose everything today." Even the general was afraid in his heart, he was framed by others not long ago and died for nine lives, and his life settled down, and he didn't expect such a thing to happen again. ”
Although Yang Zhifang's speech is not good, the content of what he said is really true. Yan Yue couldn't help but think of the reason why Murong Yan heard that he could extinguish the fire and cross the tiger during the mountaineering festival that day, and his answer was "just a coincidence". It turned out that Yan Yue still looked down on this person a little, and felt that he relied on hype himself to climb up step by step, but now when she heard his answer, she felt that this person was really sincere.
"Don't worry, I won't run away halfway. What's more, Ling Yuechen, the emperor of the Cangmu Kingdom, is my cousin, and he is so good to me, how can I be willing to escape halfway. Yan Yue smiled faintly and said slowly. That Yang Zhifang didn't expect to hear such an answer, raised his head and looked at Yan Yue, his eyes flashed with a trace of regret, but his expression changed too quickly, and before Yan Yue noticed, Yang Zhifang's eyes returned to normal: "It's just that Niangniang will leave her hometown in the future, but in the future, every year in the future, Qingming will do her filial piety for Niangniang in front of Niangniang's biological mother's grave." ”
"Thank you, and in the future, my father will ask Lord Shirou to take care of me." Yan Yue asked seriously. Although this father has not given him any help, after all, he is the father of the original owner, and he will not be able to fulfill his filial piety to him in the future.
"Of course, I will do my best to take care of the general." Yang Zhifang replied quickly. The room was quiet for a long time, and just when Yan Yue wanted to make a noise to chase away the guests, Yang Zhifang suddenly asked, "Niangniang, do you have any regrets in your heart?" ”
Yan Yue stared at him in a daze for a moment when he asked this sentence, he shouldn't have asked such a question, but he didn't know why he asked. It's just that Yang Zhifang asked calmly, and there was nothing else in his eyes except concern, Yan Yue's tongue turned in his mouth before he said: "Why regret, it's too late for me to be happy here." ”
"But the humble duty does regret the mother in his heart, and the humble duty has always thought that the love of the mother is the emperor." Yang Zhifang's voice became softer and softer, and Yan Yue couldn't help but smile again in surprise: "You are indeed the one who has just entered the palace of Darong City, what words of love can come out of your mouth, is there love in this palace?" How can it be! Forget it, I'm tired too, and I want to take a break. ”
Yang Zhifang's lips moved and moved, but he didn't say anything else, he took a long breath and said, "Niangniang, rest, I have retired." ”
Listening to the footsteps of Yang Zhifang and going out, Yan Yue was really tired. The feeling of being tired to the extreme from body to mind made Yan Yue just want to fall asleep. It's a pity that before Yan Yue's feet could take a step, she heard sharp screams and chaotic footsteps outside.
"**, prostitute,, you have only been beaten into the cold palace for a few days, just thinking about men like this, seducing other people's husbands......" The next words were even more filthy and unbearable, Yan Yue listened to them for a while before she realized that those words were actually scolding herself. The movement outside was getting louder and louder, and the voices were getting noisier and louder, with the voices of Zhuang Mama and others dissuading, as well as the reprimands of Yang Zhifang who lowered his voice. Yan Yue only realized at this time that the person who scolded people was actually Yan Qin. Unexpectedly, she also returned to the house, she must have known that Yang Zhifang had delayed the hour in her house, so she scolded here.
And the outside world was even more chaotic, and Yan Qin was scolding, and the so-called enemies were red when they saw each other. Yan Qin originally hated Yan Yue for driving her out of the palace, but at this time, seeing Yang Zhifang going out of Yan Yue's house, he was even more eager to kill Yan Yue with a knife. But Mama Zhuang and the others blocked the way, so they could only scold in the courtyard. Yang Zhifang stood aside, frowned, opened his mouth and said something, but Yan Qin's voice was too loud, and his little voice had already disappeared into the wind.
"Yan Qin, who are you scolding?" Crisply asked, and the courtyard fell silent. In Yan Qin's surprise, Yan Yue walked in front of Yan Qin so coldly, and when Yan Qin was still looking at Yan Yue's face in surprise, everyone only heard a few crisp slaps, and there were already a few finger prints on Yan Qin's face.
Yan Qin woke up from surprise, let out a few screams like killing pigs, picked up his hands, and rushed towards Yan Yue with his whole body. Mama Zhuang and the others hurriedly blocked it, but Yan Qin was so strong at this time that she rushed through the two lines of defense of Mama Zhuang Chunhua and rushed straight in front of Yan Yue. Yan Yue sprinkled all the medicine she had prepared on her face, and before the power of her tigress could be attacked, she fell to the ground gorgeously.
"Yang Zhifang, take care of your wife, if she swears like this again, I will make her unable to open her mouth for the rest of her life." Yan Yue's voice was shockingly cold in this courtyard, and everyone was stunned. Yang Zhifang looked annoyed and helpless, and stepped forward to hug Yan Qin away.
