Xuanping Houfu.

This time, Zhao Heng suddenly called him to the hall, and when he saw the middle-aged man sitting in front of him, he immediately lowered his gaze.

"Master Hou, I have something to do later."

Meng Yuanxiu didn't wait for Zhao Heng to agree, and left.

He usually saw Meng Lang sitting on a tall horse from a distance on the street of Jinling City, and he would quickly move his gaze back. Not to mention such a face, he was especially afraid to avoid it.

"Far Away."

A mellow and hoarse male voice called his steps.

Meng Yuanxiu's body stiffened.

-

On the first day that Meng Yuan cultivated into Jinling City, he looked forward to finding the way to General Meng's mansion.

The servant greeted him with a suspicious face, and he knelt in the hall, while Mrs. Yang was leisurely drinking tea on the upper seat, waiting for General Meng to come and speak.

The people gathered around to watch, and he was the only one who knelt tremblingly.

He knew that it would not be too easy to recognize the general as his father, so he prepared a lot of tokens, and repeated in his heart what his mother had said.

Until Meng Lang was late, his careless gaze fell on him, and he said coldly: "What's your name." ”

"Meng Yuanxiu." He pinched his clothes very nervously.

Mrs. Yang opened her mouth and asked, "Is it you and Ning's child?" ”

Meng Lang nodded, and the face that had been weathered in the army did not have any waves.

"Do you want to admit it?" Mrs. Yang asked again.

Meng Lang took the tea from his subordinates without hurry.

"Not necessarily. Give me some money and send it away. ”

Meng Yuanxiu knelt there, looking up at his father, who had thought about it countless times in Yao, he was in front of him, and easily admitted that he was his son, but said that he didn't have to.

Mrs. Yang prepared fifty taels of silver from her subordinates and handed them to Meng Yuanxiu.

Meng Yuanxiu stood up, "I'm not here to ask for money. ”

"Why bother with money." Mrs. Yang said with a smile.

General Meng didn't care if he took the money or not, he just said: "Leave Jinling City, don't come again." ”

Meng Yuanxiu smiled sadly, poor for her mother who always told him that her father was a man who stood up to the sky, this is the man she had been widowed for so many years and guarded to death.

He is now prosperous and wealthy, and his career is just right, so he naturally doesn't want to recognize the children born to a poor wife, which is plain and unrecognizable.

"My parents are gone, I'm an orphan, I have nothing to do with anyone wherever I go, and no one cares."

-

Meng Yuanxiu withdrew from his memories, still stunned by this "Xiu'er".

This Meng Lang, could it be that for the sake of Xuanping Hou's face, he reluctantly came to treat him kindly?

Meng Yuanxiu stood still, but he refused to look back, nor did he dare to look at his cold eyes again.

Zhao Heng got up and walked out, "You father and son have a good chat, General Meng, talk about it." ”

Although he really wanted to stay and watch the fun, it was as if he was here, which would affect the play of the father and son.

Meng Lang nodded, looked at his son's thin back, and put down the tea in his hand.

"I went back to Liangcheng to see it, and I also went to your mother's grave to burn incense and paper. As far as I am concerned, your mother is my wife of chaff, and I have never forgotten it. ”

Meng Yuanxiu clenched his hands into fists, thinking of his mother who died tragically for no reason, and couldn't help biting his lower lip fiercely.

Meng Lang said: "Over the years, I have done a lot for your mother and son, and I have never forgotten for a moment that I still have a son. Xiu'er, I didn't think it was for your own good......"

Meng Yuanxiu's eyes were astringent, "I was almost beaten to death by Meng Qin when I went out a few times, just because I was your discarded son, and I was cheaper than grass, and now you tell me that it is all for my good?" ”

"I said, don't stay in Jinling City." Meng Lang was dumbfounded.

Meng Yuanxiu turned around and looked at him with a frown, and there was a tear stain on the general's dark and rough skin.

"You are already a general of the country, and there are few people in the court who can stand side by side with you, do you really want to protect someone, can you protect it?"

The general who killed decisively on the battlefield lowered his eyes at the moment, and he didn't dare to look directly into his son's fierce questioning eyes.

"I asked the emperor to help me welcome my wife and children back to Liangcheng, but I killed your mother for this action. Before everything is settled, I don't dare to keep you by my side, even if I am famous and powerful, I can't stop the secret arrow plot, Jinling City is the land of tigers and wolves! ”

He felt guilty for suffering a lot for his distant cultivation, but in life, he was helpless.

"I don't want to put you in danger, I want to cut off the thorns on the road for you, and then take you home."

Everyone envied the general's scenery, admired his majesty, and said that his future was immeasurable, who knew that his wretched wife died tragically, and who knew that his own children were homeless.

Meng Yuanxiu turned his face away.

I was dependent on my mother for ten years, and I was alone for another ten years.

slept on the street, snatched food with dogs, almost cut off the hand holding the pen, and was severely beaten by Meng Qin.

After so many years of poverty and misery, can he Meng Lang's sentence "I don't want to put you in danger" to erase the resentment?

Meng Yuanxiu wiped his tears and snot, trying to keep his breath as steady as possible.

"Marry Yang, no one will force you. You choose to hide the fact that you have been married, and marry Yang as your wife. What kind of situation will my mother and I face, you knew it in your heart at the time, right? ”

Meng Lang was stunned by the question, and remembered all the things back then.

He clearly knew that only by marrying Yang Qingshu would his ability not be buried, and some Bole would help him rise to the top.

So he united with several brothers and created several chance encounters, and under his rounds of warmth, Yang Qingshu finally identified him.

She was messing with her family, looking for death and life, and she had to marry him, a grassroots with no name and no background.

Finally, Yang Qingshu was pregnant with Meng Qin, and their wedding was finally done in a hurry.

Meng Lang shook his head, "Xiu'er, if people like us want to turn over, we can only do this. When you were very young, I went back to Liangcheng to see your mother, and she said that she understood me and was willing to wait for me......"

"As long as the Yang clan is destroyed, everything I have will be given to you, and I have endured it for more than ten years for you, Xiu'er."

Meng Yuanxiu was stunned. The fall of the Yang family?

For no reason, he remembered the woman who brought him to the Xuanping Marquis Mansion.

She is Princess Yu and the daughter-in-law of the Yang family, and her honor and disgrace are connected with the Yang family.

Meng Yuanxiu shook his head, "I don't want the Yang clan to fall." ”

"Why?"

Meng Yuanxiu can't say the reason, how to say it? I don't want Princess Yu to lose her honorable status today, but what does Princess Yu have to do with him?

He shook his head anyway.

"If you help others destroy the Yang clan in order to completely turn over, the world will say that you Meng Lang crossed the river and demolished the bridge, and you have a wolf heart and a dog's lungs."

Meng Lang didn't take this statement to heart, "The Yang clan is overturned, and I will be able to welcome your mother's tablet back to Jinling City and enshrine it in my Mengfu ancestral hall." You are my eldest son, your status is above Meng Qin, he can't deceive you anymore, this day is not far away. ”

Meng Yuanxiu smiled, "It's not uncommon for my mother to enter your ancestral hall, and I don't like to be your eldest son." ”

The villagers always ridiculed: Your Meng Lang is soaring, why don't you come to pick you up to enjoy the blessings.

Mother always smiled and didn't seem to mind the sarcasm of others, but she always secretly cried in the house at night.

She said: Yuanxiu, don't hate your father, he didn't know that there was a you in this world, and his mother didn't tell him.

But later, Meng Yuanxiu, who knelt in the hall of the general's mansion, finally knew that his mother had lied, and the general Meng Da, whom the villagers often talked about, knew his existence for a long time.

He General Meng has hardships, and Meng Yuanxiu also has self-esteem.

Meng Lang was dumbfounded, "Xiu'er." ”

Meng Yuanxiu turned his face away, "The general drinks tea slowly, and the grass people are not accompanied." ”

He strode away, leaving his old father in tears.
