Chapter 297: Lingshan Leaves
On the eve of Jing Yu's accession to the throne, he ordered Jing Qian and his wife to be transferred back to Beijing, Yingtai was already shady, and it was even colder in autumn. King Huai's daughter had only recently been born, and it was not good for the child to live there. Jing Yu thought about it thoroughly, discussed it with Mu Yurong, and decided to take them back to the imperial city to be imprisoned.
It's not entirely because of Jing Yu's kindness, on the other hand, this move has increased the reputation of the new emperor.
Sitting in the carriage back to Beijing, King Huai had mixed feelings, and wanted to ask him if he regretted forcing the palace after that, and he didn't regret it. Without this time, he would have lived in unwillingness for the rest of his life, and although he failed, he had no regrets.
It's just that his wife and children are affected, but he feels very guilty.
He touched Zhaohui, who was held in his arms by Princess Huai, the child was less than two months old, and he was born prematurely, but he was very well raised, and he was very likable.
This kid is not much like Qin Qing, but a little more like him. Princess Huai cherishes this child very much, and usually never leaves her hand. Imprisoned in the palace, he, the prince, fell from the sky to the ground at once, and they just had coarse tea and light rice, but the nurse didn't produce milk when she ate these, and the child screamed with hunger. For this, Princess Huai always held the child and cried silently, which was really painful to treat the child as her own.
Later, it was a decree of Mu Yurong that the people in the palace were not allowed to harshly criticize the Huaiwang family, so that the child had milk to drink.
It was rare for King Huai to touch the child, Princess Huai was happy in her heart, and it happened that the child opened her eyes, and she hurriedly showed King Huai, "Lord Wang, you see Zhaohui smiling at you." ”
Sure enough, when King Huai looked at him again, the child really grinned at him. He took the child from the arms of the princess and smiled. Immediately, the smile on his face froze, and he sighed: "This child has a hard life, he died just after birth, and then he suffered with this king. ”
"Don't say that, lord." The corners of Princess Huai's eyes were moist, and she secretly wiped them away, "New Emperor Rende, when you return to Beijing, maybe you will be able to release the prince's imprisonment." ”
King Huai smiled, shook his head, and said with a wry smile: "His benevolence is also done for people to see." Free me from captivity, where will he let the tiger return to the mountain? He put his arm on Princess Huai's shoulder, his face full of apologies, "I have suffered you and this king together." After a pause, his eyes were smeared with a layer of mist, "It's all because this king is stupid and used by traitors, which not only harmed himself, but also caused his father to be poisoned." ”
"Don't blame yourself, everything is fate." Princess Huai comforted.
Huai Wang's eyebrows were overflowing with sorrow, "I don't know how the concubine is in the palace?" ”
"The queen is kind-hearted, she orders people to treat us well when we are far away in the palace, and she will take more care of the concubine if she thinks that the concubine is in the palace." Princess Huai appeased.
King Huai shook her hand, "I hope so." Stopped, he looked at Zhaohui, who was asleep in his arms, and then looked at Princess Huai, and hesitated for a moment before saying, "You treat Zhaohui very well, and Qin Qingquan will be grateful to you if he knows it." ”
Suddenly mentioning Qin Qing, Princess Huai's face showed a little unnatural, and she lowered her eyebrows and said: "Concubine Qin entrusted Zhaohui to the concubine before she died, and the concubine was determined to treat Zhaohui as her own daughter. Besides, Zhaohui is really cute, and the concubine is also very fond of it. The concubine is unblessed, she did not give birth to a boy and a half girl for the prince, and now she has Zhaohui by her side, which can be regarded as a sustenance. ”
In fact, there are some things that King Huai doesn't know, it's just that he doesn't like Qin Qing in the first place, and he also turns a blind eye to what Princess Huai does. Although his feelings for Princess Huai are not very good, after all, she is his wife, and she has been in love for so many years, so he is unwilling to pursue or mention it.
Now there is only her left by his side, although there is no scenery in the past, but at this time there is a feeling of being a troubled couple. Husband and wife are birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster comes, and it is rare that she is still willing to be by her side at this time.
Huaiwang hugged Zhaohui in one hand and her in the other, and whispered softly, affectionately, "We will have children in the future." ”
"The prince-" The long-lost warmth was like a flame that burned the plain, spreading all over the body, Princess Huai leaned on his shoulder, choked and wept, "The prince is right, Xuan'er will give birth to the prince in the future, there will be." ”
Xiao Se rolled up a corner of the car curtain, accompanied by the autumn breeze and listened to the whispers of the people in the car.
Before leaving the imperial city, Mu Xuefu and Jing Rong discussed going to Lingshan, but they didn't go directly to Yanyang, but changed their route to Lingshan.
When they arrived at Lingshan Ziyao, they were the same as when they arrived home, they went up the mountain noisily all the way, and when they saw the brothers and sisters of the Underworld Pavilion, they were even more chattering and laughing.
"The fairy is back, the fairy is back." The eighteenth layer of Lingshan is guarded by the disciples of the Underworld Pavilion at every level, and when I saw Mu Xuefu go up the mountain, I passed it layer by layer.
This sound made Lingshan lively, and a surge of people came down the mountain to greet them.
It was the first time for everyone to see Jingrong, and they couldn't help but cast all kinds of curious eyes and couldn't stop looking up and down. Those who saw it all sighed that it was handsome and noble, as if the gods and men were jade, and they were dyed into the world in an instant, and the fairy was really a natural pair.
Although in the hearts of everyone, the dragon boy has a shining demeanor and a clear jade tree, but his unsmiling color also makes many people dare not look at it directly. But the prince in front of him always has a subtle smile, warm as jade, which makes the person who sees it feel good.
There are many disciples in the Underworld Pavilion, which is indeed beyond Jing Rong's expectations. On the way up the mountain, there were hundreds of people, so it can be imagined that the Stygian Pavilion is indeed strong and powerful.
Moreover, this place is indeed difficult to find, located in the contact place of the four countries, on the top of the lofty mountains, as if in the illusion, and the mechanism is heavy, if it is not for Mu Xuefu to bring him, it will be impossible to enter the Lingshan barrier.
Even if you enter, even the mechanism at the foot of the mountain will make you die without a place to bury. It is also because of this that Jing Rong is very curious about the legendary Pavilion Master of the Netherworld Pavilion and looks forward to meeting him.
Although the Netherworld Pavilion was called a demon sect, Dai Tianming, the master of the Netherworld Pavilion, was even made a demon. But this is actually only a difference between good and evil, and sometimes the orthodox religion is not right, and the evil cult is not evil.
Jing Rong had come into contact with Jiang Yueyao and Leng Xi, and knew that they were not bad people in the true sense, and he also knew from Mu Xuefu that in fact, almost all the disciples of the Netherworld Pavilion were abandoned orphans.
Dai Tianming brought them back, gave them food and drink, taught them martial arts, and gave them a stable life.
The Underworld Pavilion mainly kills people and gathers intelligence, but the people sent out are not forced by Dai Tianming, they are all voluntary. If you have a task, you will be paid, but if you don't choose to do something you don't like to do, the Stygian Pavilion will not force the order, and it is not difficult for the Stygian Pavilion to raise hundreds of people.
Dai Tianming never said that he was a compassionate leader, he would always say that he was a mercenary businessman. He doesn't think he's evil, he thinks it's just business, he earns money, and it's never him who wants people's lives.
It's just that if Jing Rong wants to see Dai Tianming, it's not a simple matter, let alone him, even when Mu Xuefu was there, he always couldn't see him for a year and a half.
This time, Jing Rong wanted to meet this legendary figure on the rivers and lakes with expectations, but when Mu Xuefu asked others, she knew that her master didn't know where to go to Xianyun Yehe.
Now at the helm of the Underworld Pavilion is Dai Tianming's great apprentice, the famous Rakshasa Marquis on the rivers and lakes. Everything is handled and arranged by him, as if Dai Tianming has become the shopkeeper, and all the heavy responsibilities are put on Tuoba Chong.
This is the second time Jing Rong and Tuoba Chong have met.
When they met for the first time, Jing Rong didn't pay much attention to Tuoba Chong, but Tuoba Chong kept paying attention to Jing Rong. He knew that he was a worried life, of course, he had to take good care of his little junior sister to see if this junior brother-in-law was worth entrusting.
However, he always cares about others and meddles in other people's affairs, but he never understands his own affairs. It is said that he has been chasing Jiang Yueyao for so many years, and he has been unswerving, but he still can't get a nod from Jiang Yueyao, so he is also very distressed. But if there are more lice, he is not afraid of itching, so he can only make persistent efforts and continue to work hard, and there is nothing he can do.
But his belief was still strong, and one day his second junior sister would turn around and see him, run towards him, and rush into his arms.
As long as the kung fu is deep and the iron axe is sharpened into a needle, he will definitely impress the second junior sister.
Since Mu Xuefu left, she hasn't come back for more than two years, and she came back with Jingrong for the first time, so it looks like she took her husband back to her parents' house.
And Tuoba Chong is no different from an uncle-in-law who married his sister, he is extremely enthusiastic, pulling Jingrong to talk and drink tea, and let people hurry up to prepare wine and food to catch the wind and wash the dust for his sister and brother-in-law.
On the other hand, people were notified of the second and third junior sisters, and even the master sent letters.
Dai Tianming got the letter, moved quickly, and returned to Lingshan the next day.
In the past two years, he often complained that his little apprentice was ruthless, and he didn't even come back once, completely forgetting him as a master. It's really the water spilled by the married apprentice, and it can never be recovered. But when Mu Xuefu saw it, the complaints in his mouth had long been forgotten and disappeared. Pulling Mu Xuefu back and forth, for fear that his lover would be bullied outside, missing arms and legs.
Not only Mu Xuefu, but also Jing Rong, he also kept asking long and short questions. As the saying goes, the mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law more and more pleasing to the eye. Now the master looks at the apprentice husband, and it is more and more agreeable.
I admired it in my heart, this noble temperament, handsome and beautiful face, compared with him, it was just a little worse.
Jing Rong was slightly stunned when he saw Dai Tianming for the first time, he was completely different from what he imagined. I thought it would be a cold and serious old man with gray hair, but I didn't expect that he looked no different from a young man in his twenties and thirties, and he was amiable, completely out of the framework of his understanding of the master's image.
Mu Xuefu had told him that her master was fifty or sixty years old, but the one in front of him was clearly a young man. Jing Rong couldn't help but suspect that he might have taken the elixir of rejuvenation to become so young.
Later, Jing Rong learned that it was because he had practiced the martial arts of delaying aging, and even if he reached eighty or ninety, he might still be about the same as a young man.
These words sounded a wake-up call for Jing Rong, Dai Tianming's martial arts can delay aging. Will Mu Xuefu, who is his apprentice, be like this? Then when he is seventy or eighty, will his little Fu'er still be as young and beautiful as now?
If she was still young, and her old face was sunken and she couldn't look at it, would she dislike her old thing?
