Rong Qi looked at the sky outside the window, a trace of remembrance crossed his eyes, and he said, "My mother died when I was five years old, I didn't understand what it meant at first, I thought my mother was ...... I just slept through it, so on the days of the funeral, I stayed by her coffin, guarding her, waiting for her to open her eyes. One night, I fell asleep behind the coffin, and I faintly heard someone's voice in my sleep, and I woke up, and I didn't dare to move, lest I be seen and scolded by my father, so that day, I found out the true face of my so-called uncle......

Rong Qi's tone changed suddenly, with a gloomy hatred, "He knelt in front of my mother's coffin, begging for forgiveness again and again, he said that he was only forced to attack her, he was afraid, afraid of his throne, his everything, his efforts were defeated! And his uneasiness was just because of a few jokes made by the first emperor before his death, and he took my mother's life like this!"

His voice paused, rubbed the tip of his nose, Duan Rufang was silent, about the cause of the death of Princess Chaohua, there have been various speculations among the people, there is no shortage of people who have killed the emperor, today calmly heard these words, originally Duan Rufang should not have any superfluous reaction, but his heart ached faintly.

"After I learned about this, I wanted to avenge my mother, but I knew that it was impossible with my ability at the time, and he had already killed Rong Wangfu, so I deliberately pretended to be stupid with him, and made a look of self-abandonment and unlearned skills, so that he could rest assured, but secretly planned behind my back, waiting for the day of revenge. My father didn't love my mother, and after my mother died, I learned that he had a lot of women, not to mention a concubine, and since then I have hated him, and I have never spoken to him again, and we have never met him......"

"When I grow up, I will become the first gentleman in the capital as the emperor wishes, and Rong Wangfu is declining day by day, he is no longer afraid that someone will seek to seize his position, he is relieved" Rong Qi pursed his lips, glanced at the portrait on the table, and squinted, "One day, a woman came to Rong Wangfu, said that she wanted to see me, and asked Chaifeng to stuff a note to me, which said that the cause ......of Princess Chaohua's death. ”

Duan Rujian frowned, "She?"

"Don't worry, I read the note at the time, became interested, wanted to hear what she wanted to say, so I met her, she was dressed as a charlatan, and told me that my mother's death was a ghost, and asked me for gold, and she helped me exorcise ghosts. Rong Qi smiled sarcastically.

Duan Rubian also pulled the corners of her mouth, "She's a liar." ”

"Yes, I knew she was just trying to cheat money, so I taught her a lesson and blasted out. ”

"You didn't ask her what her name was?"

She didn't say anything, and as soon as she entered the door, I could see that something was wrong with her, and I was tired of asking her name. Rong Qi stared at Duan Rubian for a few moments, and said silently, "Who is she, looking at your appearance, it seems that she is very concerned about her death." ”

Duan Rufang straightened his robe, and swept his hand across the painted woman's face, "She said that it was my father's daughter who was displaced in the early years, and she only recognized her ancestors and returned to her ancestors not long ago, and she showed friendship with me a few days ago, who would have thought that she would die in just a few days, and her neck was broken, thinking that it was a man, but I don't know who it is, Duan Linxiu is very concerned about this matter." ”

Duan Rubian paused, and then said, "Listening to your story, I'm afraid she is not from the Duan family at all, she is just a charlatan, she just wants to have a good life, Duan Linxiu is merciful everywhere, and it is inevitable that there will be mistakes." That's it, it's dead, it's not an important person. ”

Duan Rubian said, picked up the painting, tore it up in two or three times and threw it into the stove, but it was destroyed by the charcoal fire in a moment. Duan Rubian retracted his gaze, turned his head and hit Rong Qi's deep eyes, his heart skipped a beat, and he said, "Why is the prince looking at his courtiers like this?"

Rong Qi stepped forward, the haze of Fang Cai was swept away, and his smile was very unserious, "Do you know what I just told you, even the brothers of life and death haven't said half a word? Even if someone knows, they have already been buried in Huangquan......"

"What does the prince mean by this?" Duan Rubian laughed and looked at him fixedly, "Did the prince tell me anything, why don't I remember?"

Duan Ru said so, but his back was a little wet, Rong Qi is a person who hides so deeply, his mind is more and more unfathomable, his purpose of approaching himself is not clear, and the purpose of saying this to himself is not clear, who knows what medicine he sells in his gourd, if it is really planted in him, he will not die unjustly.

Rong Qi didn't miss the panic that flashed in Duan Rufang's eyes, and laughed softly, "So you're afraid of me......"

Before Duan Rubian could speak, Rong Qi stood up, his red clothes were a little messy, but he couldn't hide his innate temperament, he kept silent, just left through the window when he came, and didn't look at Duan Rubian, the tightly clasped hands were wet at some point, Duan Rubian looked at his palms in a daze, frowning slightly.

Duan Jiuyang's funeral was very simple, at first Duan Linxiu wanted to do a big deal, but when the old lady learned of Duan Jiuyang's identity, she had a headache, and immediately ordered Duan Linxiu to do something hastily, just sell face in front of everyone, Duan Jiuyang is not the Duan family's matter, and Duan Jiuyang must not be leaked out, Duan Jiuyang will be removed from the family tree, and the body will be thrown into a mass grave for burial, and it will not be buried in the Duan family's cemetery.

I thought that Duan Jiuyang would pull out some strong winds and waves, but her death did not set off any waves, the Shui family has more and more tendency to please Duan Ruhua, but Duan Ruhua has stopped paying attention to her, the child in Duan Xiang's womb is still stable, nothing happened, Duan Xuan has changed a lot, she dresses more and more cutely, and she is no longer as silent as before, and she has also learned to please the old lady, plus she lost her mother, the old lady is kind, and treats her better.

Today is the day when Duan Qingxuan returns home, thinking of his younger brother who he hasn't seen for a few days, Duan Ru got up and dressed up, and came to the door with Qingtian to wait for Duan Qingxuan's carriage.

Who knew that Duan Qingxuan arrived very late, and only arrived when he was close to the end, Duan Rufeng sat at the door and was slightly distracted, seeing that the carriage had arrived, he rushed over in a hurry, Duan Qingxuan stepped out of the carriage and came to Duan Rujian's face, "Sister, I've been gone for so many days, how is Sister doing?"

Duan Rubian nodded with a smile, wanting to pat his head, but suddenly found that he didn't know when he had reached his chest, and he had to stand on tiptoe to touch his head, Duan Rubian's eyes were slightly red, and he patted him on the shoulder, "Time flies so fast, Qing'er has grown taller, and she looks more and more handsome......"

Qingkong covered his mouth and smiled, "Yes, the sixth young master is also fourteen years old unconsciously, and the young lady will be in time soon, can you not be happy." ”

Duan Rubian nodded, looked at him a few times and frowned again, "How do you see that you are still so thin and unspirited, what about Gongzi Fengqing?"

The Feng family is also a big family in the capital, Feng Changqing can't rely on his name to treat him by Duan Qingxuan's side, so he has to take a pseudonym at will, Duan Qingxuan's study After Duan Qingxuan went to school, Duan Rufeng asked Feng Changqing to follow him, but now he doesn't see his shadow, Duan Rubian squinted his beautiful eyes with some displeasure, Duan Qingxuan smiled, "Sister, don't worry, Brother Feng got off the carriage halfway because of something, and said to come back later, Qing'er's body is already much better, Sister Don't worry." ”

"Miss, young master, let's go in first, it's almost noon now, I haven't eaten yet, I have time to talk when I go in." Qingkong smiled, leading Duan Rujian and Duan Qingxuan into the mansion together.

Since Duan Qingxuan has returned to the house, Duan Rufang has made it clear to him about Leng Xuan's affairs, Leng Xuan is small and clever, and he is also very likable, Duan Qingxuan seems to have an extra brother, and Su Ri likes it tightly.

He couldn't go back to the house for a few days this time, Duan Rubian thought about it, and thought about bringing him something, so he and Qingkong hurried out to see the brocade robe and sent it to Duan Qingxuan, Leng Xuan seemed to be a little jealous, Duan Rubian had no choice but to sew two pieces, and his eyes were red.

Seeing her haggard appearance, Qingkong was angry and funny, "Look at Miss like this, I have a younger brother and I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse!"

Duan Rubian smiled and said nothing, he was lonely and helpless in his previous life, he was more or less attached to these family feelings in this life, and he couldn't do anything else for him, and sewing a piece of clothing should also make up for the guilt in his heart.

Yelu is going back to Nanchu.

The gift of the mission was very grand, not only the officials in Beijing, but even the emperor's concubines also came to send a few distinguished people, Duan Linxiu, as a hussar general, was definitely going to participate, so he also brought Duan Ruhua and Duan Rufang by the way, but Duan Xiang, in this way, Duan Xiang was more or less unhappy.

The night before the farewell mission, there was a palace banquet, that is, singing and dancing, a set of hypocrisy, very boring, Duan Rubian went through the motions, and left in less than half an hour.

The atmosphere in the palace has always been oppressive, even if the lights are bright behind him, the front is still gray.

Duan Rubian walked to the imperial garden alone, swept over the grass and trees, and suddenly remembered the scene of himself and Rong Qi peeping in the trees on the night when Beijun was lost, with a hint of a smile on his face, fleeting, and slightly clenching his palms.

Really, I suddenly remembered what he had done.

"I'm leaving, you're so happy?"

Yeluji's slightly melancholy voice sounded behind him, Duan Rubian turned around, a little surprised, "Why did you come out? This banquet is meant to send you, how can you leave?"

Yelu smiled sarcastically, walked to the pavilion in front and sat down, "Looking at the group of people who have always been disrespectful to me in the past, now they have a flattering face and are very disgusted, and when I saw that you were tired of withdrawing from the table, I came out with you." ”

Duan Rubian stood silently on the steps of the pavilion with a wooden expression.

"You haven't answered me yet. He suddenly turned his head and looked at Duan Rubian fixedly, "Are you so happy that I'm gone?"

Duan Rubian was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile, "The prince misunderstood, he was just happy for the prince, he has been hostage in Xiliang for many years, and he can finally return to his homeland, shouldn't he laugh?"

"You have even changed your name...... "A trace of pain crossed his eyes, he glanced at the bright moon shining in the sky, lost his mind for a moment, and seemed to mutter, "Yes, I don't know when, it is not even a happy event for Gu to go back......

The smile on Duan Rubian's face froze, and slowly calmed down, his slender fingertips twisted around his sleeves, not knowing how to answer.

Seeing that he was smiling, he turned his head sideways with a smile, like the original appearance, light and dark, but his voice was heavy

"Laugh and show me one more time, I'm afraid I won't have a chance after that......"

The winter wind is sherso, the plum fragrance is elegant, the sound of bamboo is everywhere, and a song is parting.
