Chapter 2: Father and Daughter
The sky is falling, and there is a father to carry it.
Since she was a child, this is the phrase she has heard most often.
Zhao Xiyan swallowed the tears from the corners of his eyes and said softly: "Dad, I don't know what's going on." ”
"I don't even know if it's an illusion in front of me. In the past ten years, I have gone through hardships, tasted many hardships, and done many things that I could not help myself......"
Zhao Xiyan's dark eyes flashed, and his voice was steady.
The more Zhao Yuanming listened, the more shocked he became, resisted the urge to interrupt the question, and continued to listen patiently.
"The Son of Heaven of the Great Jin Dynasty died, the people and bandits arose, and the world was in chaos. After the crown prince succeeded to the throne, he was mediocre and immoral, and wantonly requisitioned the people to build a palace, and the Great Jin Dynasty soon perished. ”
"Today is February 15th, and the day before my ceremony, a group of rebels will break into Beihai County. The Zhao family was all executed, Beihai County was slaughtered, and none of the people survived. ”
"I survived by chance."
Zhao Xiyan's eyes flashed with intense pain, and his voice was still calm: "Eight years later, the new emperor will build a dynasty and accept the harem." I entered the palace as a concubine, and used the Son of Heaven to get rid of the enemies who slaughtered Beihai County. ”
"I avenged my blood and revenge, and I didn't want to live anymore, so I committed suicide by poisoning myself in the dormitory. A moment ago, I was poisoned to death. I closed my eyes, but I didn't go to Huangquan, but I went back to ten years ago and woke up in the boudoir when I was young. ”
"I saw the living hosta, and I saw my father who had died under the chaotic saber a long time ago."
Zhao Yuanming looked shocked and stared at Zhao Xiyan tightly: "Are you having a nightmare?" ”
Turning an absurd nightmare into reality?
Zhao Xiyan raised his eyes and looked at his father: "That group of rebellious troops has about 20,000 people. The leader's surname is Zhou, with a single name and a Sui character, and he is a native of Pingyuan County. ”
"Zhou Sui is strong in martial arts, and his usual weapon is a Fang Tian halberd. He's a thief in Plains County. His subordinates are all vicious bandits. ”
"Zhou Sui used a lot of money to buy off the city gate officials of Beihai County. On the day when the city of Beihai County was broken, it was because the city gate official opened the city gate privately and let Zhou Sui and his gang of rebellious troops enter the city. ”
Speaking of this, Zhao Xiyan paused and lowered his voice: "There are ten days left, the emperor will die and the world will be lost." Dad waited patiently for a while, and then he could wait for the Son of Heaven to lose his letter. ”
Zhao Yuanming's mind was in turmoil, but he opened his mouth and said, "Don't wait, I believe you." ”
It is ridiculous to be born again after death.
But his daughter never lied to him.
If everything is true.
So what did his crescent moon suffer?
After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Yuanming was simply frightened, holding Zhao Xiyan's shoulders with both hands, and his voice trembled: "Crescent moon, that Zhou Sui, is it ......?"
Zhao Xiyan avoided Zhao Yuanming's gaze, and responded lightly: "Later, Zhou Sui died a miserable death, was cut by a thousand knives, and Ling Chi died for three days. ”
Those dark and painful pasts, needless to say.
It will only make my father sad and angry.
In troubled times, what kind of situation will a weak woman with the beauty of the country have? How could Zhao Yuanming not guess. His eyes instantly turned red, and he gritted his teeth and said, "I will break him into ten thousand pieces with my own hands!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. What sounded outside the door was the voice of Zhao Yuanming's long-standing Songshi.
"Miss Qiqi, the prince has come to pay a visit."
As soon as the word Shizi entered his ears, Zhao Xiyan's body trembled.
In Beihai County, there is only one boy who is called Shizi.
The prince of the North Sea.
The little bamboo horse who grew up with her.
Ten years ago, Xu Jing, who led the guards to rush into the chaotic army to rescue her, finally died under the chaotic arrows.
If there were no rebels slaughtering the city, if there were not so many accidents, originally after her ceremony, the Beihai Royal Mansion would have come to the door to propose marriage.
Creation makes people. Xu Jing died early because of her tragic death.
Her tears were also shed that day.
Ten years later, Zhou Sui was executed by Ling Chi. She avenged the innocent and tragic deaths of the people of Beihai County and the Zhao clan, and also avenged the former little bamboo horse.
In those ten years, she actually rarely thought of him.
She didn't want or dare to recall the happiness and beauty of her youth. The long time even wore away her memory of him. Only a vague outline remains.
……
Zhao Yuanming's voice pulled Zhao Xiyan back to reality from his trance.
"Crescent moon, wipe away your tears and go out with your father."
It is impossible to avoid it.
Hokkai-gun is the domain of the Hokkai King. In the land of Beihai County, the King of Beihai is the Emperor of the Earth. The prince of Beihai is thin, and he gave birth to four daughters one after another, and when he was nearly forty years old, the princess of Beihai finally gave birth to Xu Jing. It's not an exaggeration to say that he is old.
As the only son of the King of Beihai, Xu Jing has been favored by his parents since he was a child, and he has four sisters who love his brother like his life.
When Xu Jing was three years old, the king of Beihai wrote a song and sent it to the imperial court to ask for a son. When he was five years old, he was enlightened and studied, and the king of Beihai looked at it, fell in love with Zhao Yuanming, a Confucian in Qingzhou, and personally led his son to the door to apprentice.
With Zhao Yuanming's talent and fame, he was enlightened for an ignorant child, and he wasted his talents. The king of Beihai was sincere, not only paid a lot of money, but also allocated a piece of land for the Zhao family to rebuild the family study.
Zhao Yuanming pushed it, but he had to accept this disciple.
Xu Jing and her daughter Zhao Xiyan are the same age, and they are both five-year-old children who are puzzled. Zhao Yuanming simply enlightened them together. Men and women need to be seated separately at the age of eight, and Xu Jing was cheeky and relied in the Zhao family's study until he was ten years old, and then reluctantly went to the Zhao clan school.
In the next few years, Xu Jing often came to Zhao's house to "visit", and it was indispensable to meet Zhao Xiyan.
A pair of children, childhood sweethearts, gradually falling in love, everything is logical.
Xu Jing is lazy in reading, and likes to fight cocks and raise crickets on weekdays. Martial arts is a good seedling. But the dignified prince of Beihai, and he doesn't have to lead the troops to fight, what does it matter if he is good or not?
Anyway, the family has a hereditary throne and a huge family property waiting to be inherited, so you don't have to worry about anything to eat and play, and you will have a rich and good life for a lifetime.
Zhao Yuanming has been Xu Jing's master for more than ten years, so he naturally knows that Xu Jing is an embroidered pillow. It's just that Xu Jing grew up watching him in the end, except for being fun and jumping out of the way, there is nothing wrong with it. Just open your eyes and close your eyes.
A moment ago, I was shocked by Zhao Xiyan's words, and the next moment, Xu Jing came.
Zhao Yuanming had no time to think deeply, quickly adjusted his mood, and instructed Zhao Xiyan: "You and I have to keep our mouths shut about this secret." I'll see you later, don't show your clues. ”
Zhao Xiyan pursed the corners of her mouth and nodded.
Zhao Yuanming pushed open the door of the study and walked out.
Zhao Xiyan walked out of the study with his father.
The bright sunlight shone in the courtyard, and the fifteen-year-old boy stood energetically under the eaves.
The young man wore a royal blue brocade robe, a jade crown on his head, and a mutton fat jade pendant hanging from his waist. The long body is jade, and the face is like a crown of jade. The sword eyebrows are starry-eyed, and they are heroic.
The young man grinned at the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Master, sister of the crescent moon." ”
