Chapter 13: What is Love?

"Big brother, come with me to the East Palace, no matter how good the conditions of the inn are, it can't compare to the palace. Besides, that's your home. Shangguan Rui continued to persuade without giving up.

Hua Lingyu said calmly: "My home is in the Medicine King Valley. ”

Shangguan Rui was stunned, but behind his brother's seemingly calm words there was indescribable bitterness.

In the end, he could only sigh and say, "Then let's go see the queen mother first." ”

Hua Lingyu frowned and said, "It's not early, and the palace will be locked." ”

Shangguan Rui raised his eyebrows and said, "I'll climb over the wall," he lowered his eyes, "Besides, I haven't visited the queen mother for a long time." ”

Hua Lingyu thought about it and nodded in agreement.

So the three refused the request of their subordinates to follow for protection and went to the beach alone.

It is a great place to be surrounded by mountains and seas, and large fields of purple flowers sway in the evening breeze, sending bursts of sweet floral fragrance, accompanied by the sound of undulating tides, which is dreamy.

In the middle of the flower field, a small lonely grave was almost annihilated in the overwhelming purple.

The three of them paused, and Luo Shuiyi exclaimed, "Master! ”

The figure standing in front of the tombstone, as if he was independent in the world, was not Shen Tianqing.

As if aware of this, he looked up at the three of them, and then beckoned, as if to call them over.

"Master, aren't you supposed to be in the Black Mist Forest? How did it end up here? Luo Shuiyi widened a pair of beautiful eyes in disbelief, and looked directly at Shen Tianqing.

Shen Tianqing snorted lightly and said disdainfully: "Can that place trap me?" Lao Tzu sneaked out behind Xiao Ion when he was breaking through with that stupid hat! ”

Feelings, he used Qianli as a shield!

Hua Lingyu didn't speak, but kept looking at the tombstone quietly, her eyes dark.

Shangguan Rui stretched out his paws and said, "That, seniors are good." ”

Shen Tianqing looked at him quietly for a while, and said in a deep voice: "I am your Seventh Emperor Uncle." ”

Shangguan Rui was stunned for a moment, immediately turned his head away, and looked at Hua Lingyu for verification.

Hua Lingyu was silent for a moment, then nodded.

Shangguan Rui suddenly felt that the world was mysterious, and he almost jumped to his feet and shouted: "Then you are too unkind!" Get the eldest brother out of the palace to live a happy life, but throw me in the palace where you eat people and don't spit out bones, are you so eccentric? ”

Luo Shuiyi black line: "Hey, that's not the point, right?" ”

"That's the point!" Shangguan pointed at Shen Tianqing's nose angrily and scolded, "Eccentric!" Isn't he just better looking than me? How can you be so favoritistic? You know how miserable my life was in that broken palace! ”

He suddenly threw himself at the tombstone, knelt on the ground and hugged the tombstone, crying bloodily and complaining: "Mother! My son's life is so bitter! Why did you leave so early? Otherwise, my son wouldn't have suffered so much! ”

Shen Tianqing's forehead was bruised, and his face was ugly, as if he had swallowed an ostrich egg raw.

Finally, he couldn't help kicking over, kicking Shangguan Rui, who was thundering in the air and not raining, and roared angrily: "If you dare to shout and disturb your mother again, Lao Tzu will kick you to death!" ”

Shangguan Rui lay on the ground and blinked his eyes and asked, "Hey, Uncle Huang, why do you care so much about my mother?" ”

Shen Tianqing's eyes sank, and he sighed: "Your mother should have been my fiancΓ©e before she married that person. ”

Hua Lingyu turned his gaze to Shen Tianqing, and he couldn't see any expression in his silence, but the focused look showed that he was listening carefully.

Shen Tianqing squatted down and gently stroked the name "Qinya" on the stone tablet, and his careful movements were like stroking his lover's face.

His voice was ethereal, as if he had passed through time, back to the past: "Your mother had just turned eighteen years old that year, she was the only youngest daughter of my uncle's family, she grew up in the palm of everyone's hands since she was a child, her brothers loved her very much, but she liked to pester me the most, and was only willing to play with me." ”

Thinking of those good times back then, a gentle smile rose on his lips and murmured, "My Ya'er, so smart, so beautiful, so many people like her, but she only likes me alone." At that time, I really felt like I was the happiest person in the world. ”

"But," his voice cooled, and his gentle expression was clouded, "just when we were about to get married in a month, she went out to pick up fabrics and met my third brother, that is, your father, Shangguan Xuan. ”

"For so many years, I have tried my best to endure it, and even gave up the throne to him, but he still refuses to give up, and even my only remaining Ya'er has to be snatched away!" Shen Tianqing's expression became fierce, his eyes were full of hatred, "He imprisoned me with a trick and forced Ya'er to marry him!" ”

Shen Tianqing covered his eyes, choked his throat and said, "My poor Ya'er, loves me so much, such a simple girl, how can he bear to hurt her?" How could he hurt her so viciously? ”

"Master......" Luo Shuiyi knelt beside him, patted him on the back and comforted him softly.

"And then?" Hua Lingyu asked coldly.

Shen Tianqing said in a hoarse voice: "By the time I was released from the prison, the dust had settled, the sealing ceremony had been completed, and my Ya'er was no longer mine." ”

He curled up beside the tombstone in pain, but continued without a pause: "I was locked up in the heavenly prison for a month, and Shangguan Xuan tried all kinds of methods to torture me, but as long as I thought that Ya'er was still waiting for me, no matter how much pain I had, I could bear it. The first news I received when I was finally released from prison and saw the light of day was that my beloved had married someone else," he said, looking up bleakly, "do you know what that feels like? It feels like the sky has fallen and the whole world is gone......"

Hua Lingyu looked at Shen Tianqing and comforted him for the first time: "It's all over." ”

"Yes, it's all over......" Shen Tianqing lowered his eyes and said softly, "But I still hate him." If he can treat her well after getting Ya'er, then no matter how sad I feel in my heart, I will only stand from a distance and watch her be happy. But he didn't. ”

Shen Tianqing looked at Shangguan Rui and said hatefully: "I have been forced by him to leave the rivers and lakes, and he still refuses to let me go!" Even the innocent Ya'er will be angry, and Ya'er will be forced to die! ”

He trembled, stroked the tombstone, and burst into tears: "At that time, I was far away in Tianli Kingdom, and when I first learned the news, I couldn't wait to go with Ya'er!" ”

"I hate it! At that time, I should take her away, even if this life is gone, at least two people will die together and have no regrets in this life, it is better than being separated forever like this...... On Huangquan Road, how lonely should she be alone? ”

Shen Tianqing pressed his forehead tightly against the tombstone and muttered, "Why? Why? Ya'er, I should have been by your side all the time, such a big fire, you must be in pain, right? I'm sorry...... I'm sorry...... My Ya'er...... My poor Yaer...... Brother Scarlet is sorry for you, for not persevering in the most dangerous time, not being there for you when you need it most...... You must hate me, right? I'm sorry...... Brother Scarlet avenged you and went to accompany you, okay? ”

Shen Tianqing lay down in front of the tombstone and wept silently.

Shangguan Rui said with a calm face: "Has Uncle Huang forgotten the existence of me and my brother? If you want to take revenge on your mother, it should be me and my brother, right? You're getting old, so don't worry your mother, right? ”

When Shen Tianqing heard this, he suddenly seemed to remember something, he pulled Hua Lingyu and Shangguan Rui, and said excitedly at the tombstone: "Ya'er, look, these are your two sons, you see, how good they are now!" Brother Scarlet didn't break his promise this time and helped you take good care of your son, will you be happier when you see them? ”

He pulled Luo Shuiyi again and said, "This is your daughter-in-law, isn't it beautiful?" Your Yu'er is married! Are you a mother-in-law, are you happy? ”

"Uncle Huang, don't be like this, if your mother is in the sky, she will be sad to see you like this......" Shangguan Rui looked at Shen Tianqing and felt very uncomfortable.
