The wedding of Han Yue and Princess Ying was held as scheduled, and the people of Xizhou County congratulated them together.

Yuzhou County sent people to send congratulatory gifts, and the people who came also asked to see Xia Huaijin to pass on the greetings of the king of Yuzhou.

"Lord Jin, our prince learned that this time Princess Yu married to Xizhou County was personally sent by you, and the special servant greeted the prince and asked you if you have time to go to Yuzhou?"

An Ronghua looked around for Xia Huaijin and heard the conversation between the two outside the room.

"Xia Huaiyu?"

An Ronghua forgot her sorrows, and drank this wedding banquet with joy, the children and descendants she cared about, only Xia Bingwen has not yet married a wife, but An Ronghua believes that God has arranged it properly.

Far away in the imperial capital, Xia Bingwen was a little disappointed that he couldn't attend Princess Ying's wedding in person, and even the last relatives around him left, but the emperor should probably be so lonely.

In the empty Sheng'an Temple, Xia Bingwen asked Xiao Chengzi to prepare wine and food.

"Su Liqing, today is the wedding day of Princess Ying, the emperor invites you to drink a glass of wine, don't be ignorant. Xiao Chengzi said.

Su Liqing guarded the Sheng'an Palace, rain or shine, and never stepped into one of them, but today he was able to enter the palace to eat and drink because of Princess Ying's wedding.

"Sit down, today I will be an older brother who has married my sister, not the king of a country. ”

Xia Bingwen and Su Liqing drank happy wine together, and the loneliness in his eyes was overflowing with wine.

"The queen mother is gone, and now that Ying'er and the concubine have also left, I have become a veritable loner. ”

Su Liqing has been silent, but when it comes to the departure of her relatives, how can she be indifferent.

"The emperor doesn't have to be sad, whether it is the Queen Mother or the Concubine Niangniang, they are just accepting your thoughts in another part of the same world, at least, they are still alive. ”

Xia Bingwen looked at Su Liqing's sad eyes, he was always haunted by the sentence that he would not kill Boren and Boren would die because of him.

"Do you hate me?"

"The sinner girl knows that her father has committed a heinous crime, and the emperor is really merciful, but God has no eyes, and the wicked are in charge!" Su Liqing felt resentful in his heart.

"If I want to set you free, would you like to leave the palace and live freely?"

"In this life, a sinner lives only to atone for the sins of the king. ”

The autumn slaughter was everywhere, and An Ronghua and Xia Huaijin, who set off from Xizhou County, did not return to the imperial capital according to the original official road, but crossed the river into the territory of Yuzhou.

"This king has something to do to come to Yuzhou, and he still pulls you along, you won't blame this king for making his own decisions, right?"

"How come, why not come to Yuzhou to play, I heard that the Mid-Autumn Festival in Yuzhou has a unique style, just in time!"

Xia Huaijin was relieved, and Ronghua was satisfied as long as he had fun.

"Would you like to go with this king to see someone?"

"What person, old lover?" An Ronghua said deliberately.

"The younger brother of this king, the king of Yuzhou. ”

An Ronghua didn't know that the king of Yuzhou, although he was a twins with Xia Huaijin's compatriots and looked very similar, the temperament of the two was 108,000 miles apart.

Xia Huaiyu was cunning and cunning, he once coveted the throne and was eyeing him, but he was sent to Yuzhou by the first emperor and was not allowed to return to the court for the rest of his life, and it has been a full fifteen years.

"I've heard of him, does he really look exactly like you?" An Ronghua pretended to be curious.

"The king has not seen him for more than ten years, and I wonder what he is now. ”

The two went straight to the Yucheng ferry, passing through the suburbs of the city, and many displaced refugees could still be seen.

"There was another flood in Yuzhou this year, is your younger brother incapable of governance, or is he unintentional?" An Ronghua suddenly became serious.

When it was time for the porridge shack to give porridge, a handsome girl of the same age as Xia Bingliang gave a meal to the hungry refugees.

"Miss Yan'er, when will we be able to enter the city?"

"Yes, if we don't go into the city, we won't have a livelihood, and after autumn and winter, we will either starve to death or freeze to death. ”

The refugees rushed up for answers, and a masked black-clad boy leaped from a tall tree behind the porridge shack, holding a sword in his hand, to suppress the refugee riot alone.

"Don't worry, my father is already arranging, and when order in the city is stabilized, I will definitely arrange for everyone to have a place to live in the city. ”

The woman named Yan'er stabilized everyone's emotions, was kind, very gentle and kind, but she saw Xia Huaijin from a distance between her eyes, and she was suddenly surprised.

"Father?"

"Lord Wang!"

When the refugees received Yan'er's message, they all saw Xia Huaijin when they looked back, and they rushed up, kneeling and begging for passage.

"Lord Wang, we are all homeless people, coming from all parts of Yuzhou, our hometown was destroyed for livelihood, please show mercy to the prince, let us go to the city!"

Suddenly kneeling and begging, Xia Huaijin was surprised, he was the prince, but why was his identity exposed.

"Do you think you're your brother?" An Ronghua said.

Yan'er and the black-clothed young man stepped forward, and at close range, Yan'er could detect the difference between Xia Huaijin and her father.

"Could it be that, Uncle Jin!"

An Ronghua didn't say a word, she had heard that Xia Huaiyu had a daughter, but she had never seen it, and compared to this Yan'er, the black-clothed young man beside her made her care more.

In the palace of King Yu, the housekeeper Hongtu sent food to Xia Huaiyu, separated by the screen of embroidered yarn, Xia Huaiyu got up from the couch, the black silk nightgown was lazy and tired, and the long hair was scattered like a waterfall.

"Lord, King Jin has gotten off the ferry. Hongtu said.

Xia Huaiyu's low eyelids covered his thoughts, but the corners of his mouth did not hesitate to smile, rejoicing that his brother, whom he had not seen for fifteen years, was finally willing to come to see him.

"Where's Yan'er?"

"The young lady went to the soup kitchen outside the city again. ”

"Well, who do you think she looks like?" Xia Huaiyu shook his head helplessly.

"Father!"

Suddenly, hearing Yan'er's call, Xia Huaiyu motioned for Hongtu to go to greet her.

"Uncle, look who I brought!"

Yan'er brought Xia Huaijin and An Ronghua, and Hongtu's eyes fell on Xia Huaijin, how could the old emotions of decades disappear.

"Ambitious!"

"Lord Jin, I haven't seen you for fifteen years, and you are still so heroic. ”

"Yan'er called your uncle, but she?"

"Yes, but the wish is blessed, and he is no longer alive. ”

The atmosphere was subtle and solemn, and An Ronghua didn't know the person in front of him very well in his impression.

"Please King Jin enter, the prince has been waiting for a long time. Hongtu respectfully asked.

"I'm waiting for you outside?" An Ronghua asked.

"Good. ”

Xia Huaijin entered to meet Xia Huaiyu alone, Xia Huaiyu poured two glasses of wine, and the moment she raised her eyes to see her brother meeting, both of them had mixed feelings in their hearts.

"Brother, long time no see. Xia Huaiyu called, "I thought that my sister-in-law was pregnant, and my brother would eagerly return to the imperial capital to accompany me, and my brother could come, which really made me overjoyed to be a younger brother!"

An Ronghua heard the two brothers talk about the old days, and Hongtu wanted to invite An Ronghua to the side room to rest, but she was willing to sit and chat with Yan'er, the niece, on the porch.

"Gu Nu, I heard that Uncle Jin has a son who is as old as me. Yan'er said curiously.

"Xiao Liang'er, he is the same age as you, but you are much more stable than him, that kid is so willful!"

"I've never met him before, I really hope to see him sometime, our father is a brother, and we are also the closest brother and sister!" Yan'er was looking forward to it.

An Ronghua felt a little sad, Xia Huaiyu was not allowed to enter the imperial capital for the rest of her life, so she implicated Yan'er and lost the opportunity to reunite with other relatives during the festival, Xia Huaiyu did not hear of other children, she has always been alone.

Although they met for the first time, in An Ronghua's opinion, Yan'er was completely different from the Xia Huaiyu she knew, I don't know if she was kind by nature, or if her father had really kept to himself over the years.

"If you have a chance in the future, you can let Uncle Wang bring the family to Yuzhou to play, and let Xiao Liang'er get to know your good sister well. ”

"That's great!"

An Ronghua still cared about many questions, so he also asked Yan'er.

"I didn't know your uncle Wang for a long time, but I only know that he has a brother who is your father, I don't know who your mother is Yan'er?" An Ronghua asked.

"My mother has been dead for many years, and I don't remember my mother anymore, but my mother and uncle were originally descendants of the former Yuhou Mansion, and after the Yuhou Mansion withdrew from the mansion and retired from the title, they came to live in Yuzhou with their father. ”

After listening to Yan'er's explanation, An Ronghua understood that the current Yuzhou Wangfu official family and Yan'er's biological mother who is no longer alive is Xia Huaijin's mother's mother's house. However, the defeat of the Yuhou Mansion was a story many years ago, when the first emperor was still alive, and Xia Huaiyu was still in the imperial capital at that time.

"No wonder I saw the long-lost reunion in the eyes of your Uncle Wang and your uncle, it turned out to be an old man. ”

An Ronghua glanced at the black-clothed young man who was sitting silently in the corridor, and asked with a curious look: "Who is he, he is young, and he seems to be good at kung fu?"

The young man glanced at An Ronghua with a fierce defensive look, but Yan'er got up and dragged him to introduce: "His name is Nan Bugui, he is a guard in the house, you are right, his martial arts are really powerful, and other guards in the house who are older than him can't beat him!"

"It's really young, but why are you masked? And don't smile, I'm really curious about what kind of person you are?" An Ronghua was indifferent.

"He never takes off his mask in front of people, and although he doesn't talk much, he's not a bad person. Yan'er explained.

"That's nature, Yan'er is so kind, your friends naturally won't be bad people. An Ronghua's eyes were filled with thoughts.

An Ronghua was invited to dine with Yan'er, and Yan'er was really interested in everything in the imperial capital, whether it was Xia Huaijin or Xia Bingliang or even Xia Bingwen.

After the meal, An Ronghua remembered to find Xia Huaijin.

"Just patronize and catch up with your good brother, don't you care about me, right?"

An Ronghua returned to Xia Huaiyu's dormitory and learned from Hongtu that the two brothers had gone to the bathhouse.

"What a good brother, do you want to recall the time when you were dependent on each other in your mother's womb?" An Ronghua couldn't help but tease.

In the bath, perfume mist and warm water ripples.

"I can't believe that you and I can bathe together so comfortably in our lifetime. I remember that when I was a child, my brother was much more stable than me, and it was my brother who took me to bathe and change clothes, so I didn't need to worry about my mother. After all these years, I almost forgot that there was a brother like you who was once inseparable. Xia Huaiyu was full of emotion.

"Even if you forget, I will always be your brother. ”

"Yes, it seems that my brother has forgotten his brother!" Xia Huaiyu smiled secretly.

"Have you figured it out all these years?" Xia Huaijin finally asked.

"Figure it out, figure it out?" Xia Huaiyu opened his eyes suddenly, as if he was puzzled.
