A few days later, Hong Laoxian gave Jingya a serious look at the illness, saying that if she continued to recuperate according to the prescription she prescribed, Jingya would be able to recover in less than a year.

After that, he said goodbye to everyone and left with Yu Nuanniang and Que Ming.

Standing on the high city wall, Xia Qian looked at their departing figures, and asked Yu Nuan: "Your father and mother and senior brother are gone, don't you go with them?" ”

Yu Nuan retracted her gaze, looked at Xia Qian and smiled sweetly: "It's time to follow, but they are all very interested in the peach blossom wine you brewed, and I can't find them until I bring enough!" ”

"Huh? I'll just say, a few of them are so kind to keep you here with us, because they value my wine? Huo Zun smiled dissatisfiedly.

Yu Nuan smiled and asked Huo Zun and Xia Qian: "If it is decided today and the people live in peace, what are the plans of the emperor and King Yongxing?" ”

Xia Qian turned his head and looked at Qinglong City, then looked at the sky above his head, and sighed: "I have been in Qinglong City for eighteen years, and the children are almost fifteen, I should also put down the burden on my shoulders, go out for a walk, and take a look." From now on, enjoy the mountains and rivers, be idle and happy!"

"Okay, I'll be with you wherever you go. The chef, bodyguard and coachman, I took it all by myself! We can find a small town to open a teahouse, find an idyllic mountain stream, plant some flowers and plants, and raise some big white geese. Look at spring flowers and autumn water, enjoy summer lotus and winter snow, watch the sunrise and sunset, listen to birds and cicadas, and listen to the ...... of birds and cicadas," Huo Zun said with a smile.

Xia Qian's face stiffened with a smile, and she asked unhappily, "When did I say that I wanted to follow you?" ”

Huo Zun was stunned, he had done so many stupid things before, he hurt her all over her body, and after she left him, she had two loves, giving birth to Jiao Yue and Qin Shui.

Yu Nuan looked at the two of them and took the lead in laughing: "Your Majesty, you will spare King Yongxing!" What you said, after the prince went back, I don't know when I felt guilty? ”

Xia Qian smiled and deliberately handed a sentence to Yu Nuan: "The two children of Qin Shui and Jiao Yue, now that I have raised them, if their parents have spirits in the sky, they can finally rest in peace!" ”

In Huo Zun's surprised gaze, Yu Nuan cleverly told the life experiences of the two children, and broke that Xia Qian and Lu Jingheng had only been a fake couple for three years.

"Xia Qian, you?"

Huo Zun looked at her in surprise, and couldn't help but grab her hands, "Give me another chance, I promise...... No, it's a vow, I will never let you suffer the slightest grievance!"

"We have been separated for 16 years, and I have never forgotten the taste of roasted tender fish in autumn artemisia and roasted hare in blue pine, as well as ......"

Before Xia Qian's words were finished, the voices of the three children came from the city wall.

"Mother, go back to the palace quickly, next month is Brother Yue's fifteenth birthday, I and Brother Changqin both feel that the congratulatory gifts prepared are inappropriate, you go back and take a look, help us get some ideas!" Qin Shui pulled Xia Qian's arm and said coquettishly.

"Fifteen! You don't say I'm busy and forgetful. Let's go, go back and have a look! ”

A month later, Prince Yaoyue's birthday was held very grandly.

At the palace banquet, Xia Qian ordered Gonggong Li to announce a holy decree on the spot.

This is a holy decree to inherit the throne, and declares that she will abdicate in three days, and Jia Yue will ascend the throne and succeed her.

The Manchu Dynasty was shocked, and only Xia Qian, Huo Zun and Changqin looked calm.

After the palace banquet, Jiao Yue knelt in the Fenghua Hall and asked sadly: "Mother, have you found Brother Changqin, so you don't want children?" ”

"Silly child, you were raised by your mother, how could I not want you? You have grown up, and you have picked up this country, you must be like your father, so that the country will prosper and the people will live in peace. In the past, the new weapons that Niang people secretly created were too lethal, and Niang had already made them completely destroyed. Mother may have to leave Qinglong City for a while, in the future, Prince Yong, Commander Shi, Marquis of Jing'an, Prime Minister He will do their best to assist you, you must protect this country, diligent government and love the people! ”

Seeing that Xia Qian, Huo Zun, and Changqin were about to leave Qinglong City, Qin Shui was clamoring to go with them.

Xia Qian thought about it and took her with her, and Yue Yue sent them out of Qinglong City with tears in her eyes, and told them to write a letter and take time to visit her.

A family of four sat in a simple two-wheel carriage, Huo Zun drove in front, and Changqin and Qinshui sat with Xia Qian

Chat in the car.

"Mother, where are we going now?" Qin Shui asked as he peeled the grapes.

Xia Qian lifted the curtain on the carriage, looked outside, and replied with a smile: "I have to ask your father, I am a road idiot, and I haven't left Qinglong City much before!" ”

"The place where you want to go is very familiar, Changqin is very familiar, it is in the territory of the original Simon - Sajin Mountain, take you to see the sun out!" Huo Zun raised his horsewhip and laughed loudly.

"Sprinkle the gold mountain, oh! Not only can you see the most beautiful sunrise in the world, but also the blue pine roast rabbit meat that my father is best at and my mother's favorite to eat, and the tender fish in autumn artemisia! Changqin smiled and looked weird.

Xia Qian looked embarrassed, glanced at Changqin with a smile and said, "You kid is talking nonsense, there is nothing at all!" ”

"Mother, don't be embarrassed, what you said to your father on the city wall that day, Brother Changqin and I heard everything!" Qin Shui attached himself to Xia Qian's ears and laughed softly.

Huo Zun smiled and said, "After watching the sunrise and eating the autumn artemisia fish and blue pine meat, I will take you to Mobei to have a look." In this season, the water and grass are vigorous, and the cattle and sheep are flocked, which is the most beautiful time on the grassland. ”

"Well, yes, the sunrise of the Golden Mountain is famous all over the world, and the sunset in the desert is also unique. However, if you go from the aimless east to the west like this, you are not afraid of tiring us who ride in the car? Xia Qian asked with a smile.

He stopped the car, lifted the curtain and looked at the mother and son inside, and said with a smile: "I didn't shout tired of driving the car, but you people in the car shouted first, or who of you will try to drive?" ”

The three of them all shook their heads, and said with a smile that they were tired of riding in the car, and they were even more tired of driving the car, so it was better not to change it.

Huo Zun took a bunch of grapes and tasted a few, his eyes fell on Changqin and Qin Shui, and said with a smile: "Tuoba Jin and Situ Jun have a son and a daughter, and now they are both of marriageable age, and they wrote to me a few days ago, asking if they want to get married. I thought, we have children and daughters now, why don't we go and have a look? ”

"Wait, wait, wait! Mother, you see, my father just didn't pretend to be a good thing in his heart, so he planned to sell us to Mobei so quickly! Changqin hurriedly grabbed Xia Qian and said.

Xia Qian was so happy that she couldn't drink it, and replied with a smile: "This is a good thing, I think it's true!" But this Tuoba Jin and Situ Jun are a little less, I am now two sons and a daughter, where is there enough for them to have a son and a daughter? ”

"You don't have to worry about this, isn't there a part of Simon's fiefdom in Changqin that was the former Nankang Kingdom? The brewing mountain there is a place for beautiful women! Huo Zun looked at the mother and son in the car and smiled happily.

A year later, Changqin took the daughter of Tuoba Jin and Situ Jun, Qin Shui married the prince of Mobei, Jiao Yue canceled the fiefdom of the east wing, named Changqin the king of Yongtai, and handed over the three major regions of the original Simon South, Nankang, and East Wing South to its governance, and called Mobei and part of the east wing and Simon regions Tuoba Jin, Situ Jun and his wife to govern, and unified the writing and laws of the world.

After the children got married, Xia Qian and Huo Zun began to play around and live a two-person world of relatives.

Before, four years of childhood sweethearts and six years of separation were exchanged for a marriage between the two.

In that short two-year marriage, the real sweet time was only half a year, and the two who were injured one after another were heartbroken.

Sixteen years later, when they come together again, both of them cherish it very much, and they don't make up for the unhappy year and a half of their previous marriage and the sixteen years of separation.

Forty years later, Huo Zun couldn't walk anymore and settled at the foot of a big mountain with Xia Qian.

Xia Qian carefully accompanied him through the last journey of his life, looked at the fence wall outside the house and sighed: "A lifetime, it is so short!" You didn't have time to say goodbye to the children, and you just left. But fortunately, the children of the province know that we are dying in the wilderness, and they feel uncomfortable! ”

Huo Zun's grave was a little cold, and she carefully climbed up the mountainside on crutches, picking some wild flowers and weaving them into a delicate flower basket.

She held the flower basket and said sadly as she walked: "You said that you will live with me forever and forever." Born in the same nest, died in the same hole, hearts depended on each other, life was connected, just left, leaving me alone...... I can't go back to Qinglong City, if I die there, I have to be buried in the imperial mausoleum, I'll be buried with Lu Jingheng, you don't want to; Let's be buried with you, the children's faces are gloomy, and it is ......quiet to be buried at the foot of such an unattended mountain."

Suddenly, she slipped and rolled down the mountainside.
