Ah Huan, you are really the stupidest fool in the world, where is An Huaixin worthy of your love, and even let you give your life for me.

It's still early winter, and this year's snow seems to have come early, so remember that in the past, the snow was released after the winter solstice in the south, which is the difference between the climate of the north and the south.

The lonely city of bleak snow is fluttering, the wind and snow are like a waterfall, and the flying snow is dancing like a piece of scale armor, falling one after another. Now the soldiers who are at the border must be fighting against the cold, but it is pitiful that they have to sacrifice so many lives in order to unify the world.

Looking at the fragrant snow sea outside the window, the snow and wind plum blossomed by itself, and the pink remnants floated by themselves.

The plum blossoms stand proudly in the snow and bloom beautifully, delicate, and the color is more pink and delicate against the backdrop of this long snow.

Plum blossoms, it seems that the first time I saw a large piece of Meilin is Yeluqi's palace, I didn't expect that now in just a few years, it is already a matter of things and people, and the flowers are gone.

The people who were arrogant and wanton at the beginning have disappeared......

Just as I was stuck in the memories of the past, in the distance, a thinly dressed man was standing among the plum trees and slowly walking towards it.

Why do you think of the Yelu brothers when you come here, sleeping, walking, and even seeing the plum blossoms see the two brothers of the Yelu family?

People really can't go back to the old place, otherwise they will definitely have a nervous breakdown......

If I could really see Yeluhuan again...... I thought of something and a little smile appeared on my face, in the wind and snow, I stared closely at the figure that was getting closer and closer, suddenly, my face froze, and I looked at the figure that gradually became clear, it was Liancheng Yanping.

My smile stiffened......

Liancheng Yanping frowned and stared at the sudden smile on my face, and said to me, "What are you doing with such a bright smile?" ”

The smile on my face had faded, and I withdrew my gaze a little awkwardly, "It's nothing, why do you have time to come here." Hurriedly changed the subject.

"I don't know, I walked and walked here."

"I see you're bored, how is the front-line battle view?" What I am most concerned about now is the outlook on the front line, and to this day I still hope that the southern country will win.

Now Liancheng Yanping has been blinded by hatred, this time I really don't want Xiao Jincheng to lose, no matter if he is selfish, I really don't want him to lose.

But judging from the current situation, if Liancheng continues to fight a protracted war, Xiao Jincheng's defeat seems to be a foregone conclusion.

He walked to the sandalwood table and poured himself a cup of the dragon well with dust and smoke wafting, "It's the same old way, not much progress." ”

"Are you really going to fight for the long haul? Torture the body and mind of the soldiers, and waste the hard-earned food of the people? ”

"If you don't fight a protracted war, the Khitan will be defeated in the south, in all fairness, although our soldiers are very brave and good at fighting, but we are still inferior to them in manpower and other aspects, so I can only fight a protracted war." Liancheng spoke to me today in a much calmer tone than before, and he no longer used to be sarcastic about me at every turn, nor did he always mention Ah Huan's death in front of me.

"The protracted war has cost the people and money, and the people who have been fighting for two years are already physically and mentally exhausted."

He chuckled, picked up the tea and sucked, taking a small sip, as if reminiscing about the fragrance of tea, "As long as I can win, I will not hesitate to pay no matter what the price." ”

He has really been blinded by hatred, maybe he is indeed an emperor's talent, but if a person who doesn't even care about the lives of the people unifies the world, it will be the suffering of the common people, "I won't talk about the current situation of the people in the south now, I will tell you about the situation at the border of Linhuangfu now." ”

Seeing that he did not interrupt me, he said, "General Lian Po escorted me all the way to the Linhuang Mansion, and on the way for several days in succession, there were babies waiting to be fed in swaddling clothes, old and frail old men, and women who had been separated from their husbands for many years and kept free alone, do you know what they are eating now? It's boiling grass root bark with clean water, and you are the great sweat on the top, the god in their minds, and their heaven, but look at what you eat? It's all fine clothes and food, how can you understand the suffering of the people now? Fighting a protracted war, you said it easily, but it was the soldiers who were stationed at the border in the wind and snow to help you complete these four words, and you were still arguing with the harem ladies in the palace over the matter of pregnancy. You ask yourself, have you lived up to Ahuan's entrustment, and have you fulfilled your responsibilities to the subjects of the world? ”

I don't know if what he said moved him, but at this moment he was holding a cup, and he didn't even notice that the tea was spilled.

After a long time, he said shallowly, "Why did I sit on this sweat seat in the first place, I think you know very well. ”

"Don't use Ah Huan as an excuse anymore, if you do something wrong, you will do something wrong."

I scolded lightly and gently closed the window, the icy cold wind could no longer penetrate the dormitory, "I no longer advise you to leave time for Nanguo to breathe, I only hope that you can take care of the suffering of your own people and solve the problem quickly." ”

He repeated in a low voice, "Quick fix? ”

"You, who have always been conceited, don't you dare to have a real war with the southern country? Even if you lose, it will be a battle to the death, and the death is heavier than Thailand. In the future, the annals of history will record your great achievements, and not to delay the war and achieve victory in vain, regardless of the safety of your subjects. Look, you won't lose this time!"

"At the end of the day, you're still working for him."

"Liancheng, you always like to twist my intentions. In this world, except for Ah Huan, do you not trust anyone? You're going to be tired like that...... Just like Xiao Jincheng a few years ago, and like me a few years ago. ”

After speaking, I suddenly heard a crisp voice coming from outside the dormitory, and the sound rippled throughout the dormitory, "Uncle cousin, Uncle Cousin is snowing......"

Liancheng just heard it, and a shallow smile appeared on his face, until a girl ran into the dormitory under the traction of her grandmother and threw herself into Liancheng's arms. Liancheng hugged her with a full hug, "Why is Xia Xue here?" ”

"Uncle Cousin, it's snowing, you have to go with me to play." The girl stuck to Liancheng like an octopus and smiled very happily. Especially the two deep pear vortices under her two eyes, with her smile when she spoke, she is so lovely now, she must be a beauty embryo in the future.

Liancheng's thick palm gently stroked her head, with doting in his eyes, "Let your mother accompany you, okay?" ”

Lian Cheng said as he turned his gaze to me, who was confused for a while.

"Mother?"

"Mother?"

Xia Xue and I spoke in unison, but the voices were so harmonious together.

"Yes, she is the wife of your father, that is, your mother." Liancheng scratched her pink cheeks, and her voice was very soft, this is the first time I have seen Liancheng like this, just like a loving father.

Xia Xue's fierce gaze turned to my face, and her big watery eyes lingered on me, as if she wanted to take a closer look at me. After a moment, she said softly in a childish voice, "Mother." ”

Who is she, Ah Huan's child?

She's calling me my mother?

Liancheng handed the child in his arms into my hands, I took it immediately, and then her hands trembled slightly, "Xia Xue is so good." I couldn't restrain a kiss on her cheek.

Xia Xue laughed, leaned over and kissed me on the face, "Mother, you are so beautiful!" ”

Liancheng stared at the two of us deeply, no longer indifferent, no longer ruthless, but a wisp of smile.

At this moment, the three of us are so warm, which really touches me, as if confirming the saying, 'A family of three, happy and harmonious'. But only we know that the three of us are inextricably linked, but it will never be a family of three.

Liancheng said, "She is the only child of my eldest cousin, and she was born three years ago in the first snow of winter, so Mrs. Lan named her Xia Xue." ”

Is this Mrs. Lan's child? It turned out that it had been three years since I left here, and Ah Huan's only child was in my arms at the moment.

I think I've found a way to compensate Ah Huan, Yelu Xia Xue......

……

In the days to come, Xia Xue ran towards Lan Xiangju every day, her laughter and laughter continued to fill the original bleak and lonely palace, she relied on me very much, always lying in my arms to listen to me tell her stories and sing nursery rhymes. Then he called the word 'mother' over and over again, as if he couldn't call it enough.

I am really happy to have Xia Xue by my side, although she is not my biological child, but I regard her as more important than my biological child. Because of Xia Xue's frequent relationship, Liancheng often comes to Lanxiangju, and he is also very good to Xia Xue, it should be the relationship between Aiwu and Wu, he regards Xia Xue as his own.

Lian Cheng said that Xia Xue's mother was Mrs. Lan, and after giving birth to her child, she personally chose a name for her and then committed suicide. Just because Mrs. Lan is a spy sent by the southern country, she will die.

Listening to Mrs. Lan, I thought of Liancheng Si again, is she still in prison at the moment? In fact, Lianchengsi is not hateful, but pathetic. was used by his own brother, and even his own children were murdered by his own brother, but love did not get the same response.

I asked Liancheng why he had to send his own sister to the south, he finally escaped from Liancheng's house, presumably Lianchengsi did not escape like him, and suffered a lot.

He must have felt indebted to such a sister......

And he just lightly hooked the corners of his mouth and said, only his own sister can believe it, but he didn't expect that in the end, even his own sister betrayed him, he had asked Yeluqi to warn her many times, but he was still obsessed, in order to punish her, so he killed her child. He also said that his sister would betray him, and who else in this world could believe it?

I don't think Liancheng trusts anyone anymore.

Thousands of miles of frost, white snow, heavy snow intermittently fell for half a month, shrouding Zhaoyang Palace in a white blanket.

I followed Xia Xue to stand in the corridor in front of the palace, watching the disturbing snowflakes fall all over the ground in the distance, and I was mixed with her breath like light smoke.

Her hand climbed my neck and whispered in my ear and asked, "Mother, do you know who Xia Xue's mother is?" Why don't I have a mother, every time I ask about my cousin and grandmother, they don't tell me. ”

Listening to her immature voice deliberately lowered, for fear of being heard, I folded my arms gloomily, "Xia Xue, I am your mother and mother." ”

Liancheng was right not to tell Mrs. Xia Xuelan, she was still a child under the age of three, and she shouldn't have to bear this.

If I could, I would like to be her mother forever, if I had a life to live until then......

"Concubine Yue, when did you become Xia Xue's mother." Under the wind and snow, there was an awe-inspiring voice, looking at An Huairou coming towards me under the support of all the minions, Shi Qing forged the four solid dragon silver mouse skin coat stained with a little snowflake, and the spirit snake hair embedded with a dazzling phoenix crown, sonorous under her steps.

I took a few steps back with Xia Xue, not because I was afraid of her, but because I was afraid that she would scare little Xia Xue, because I felt that her expression at the moment seemed to be looking for fault.

At this time, Xia Xue whispered in my ear again, "She is so fierce." ”

"Sister, I haven't seen you for many years, I didn't expect you to be alive." Her hands were hidden in a fox fur suit as white as snow, and she stopped in the snow and did not enter the corridor.

We looked at each other through the feathers of snow, and time stood still for a moment.
