Hearing this, Huaiyu knelt on the ground with a plop, looked at the grave whose head had been cleaned so that there was not even a single weed, kowtowed three times in a row, and then said loudly:

"Mother, I'm Huaiyu, your son, I've come to see you, I want to tell you, I'm living a good life now, are you okay over there? I have a father and mother who love me, as well as my younger brothers and sisters, as well as my grandmother and aunt, and each of them is very good to me, you can rest assured......"

Speaking of this, he suddenly choked up a little, and Luo Lan squatted on the ground and burned paper money, while comforting softly:

"Huaiyu, you are already a man, don't cry, otherwise your mother will be worried."

Huaiyu bit her lip and nodded, and asked timidly:

"Mother, whose tombs do they belong to? Why are they so close to my mother? Is it my dad? ”

This question made Luo Lan's heart suddenly tighten, how should she explain the story about these two tombs?

Just as she hesitated, Huaiyu asked again:

"If this is my mother's grave, it must be my father's, whose is that short one? Did they have any other children before me? ”

Luo Lan sighed secretly and said slowly:

"Huaiyu, your father used to be the crown prince, how could he be buried here? There are some things that you don't understand now, and when you grow up, your mother will tell you. ”

Huaiyu looked at her with wide eyes,

"Mother, Huaiyu is nine years old, she is a man, there is nothing I don't understand, if my father is the prince, my mother should be the princess, my father should not be buried here, and my mother should not be buried in this mass grave, but she is buried here, there must be some story in this, you ...... Can you tell me? ”

Looking at Huaiyu's longing eyes, Luo Lan was still a little hesitant, she couldn't be sure if Huaiyu's young mind could accept this fact.

"Mother, if you don't want to say it, then don't say it, you don't want to tell me, there must be your reason, besides, I don't have to know......"

Seeing that Huaiyu finally stopped asking, Luo Lan breathed a sigh of relief and nodded to him:

"Okay, you can talk to your mother here, I'll wait for you over there. ”

"Thank you, mother."

Luo Lan sighed, got up from the ground, and walked not far away with Ah Cai and Ah Hong.

When only Huaiyu and the three graves were left, Huaiyu's tears suddenly fell uncontrollably, but he immediately wiped them with his sleeves.

He gritted his teeth and said word by word:

"Mother, I'm ...... I really miss you, although my current mother is very good to me, but I still want to know what you look like, many times, I have dreamed that you came back to see me in my dreams, but...... But I have never seen your face clearly, can you beg, the next time you come to my dream, don't go so fast, don't go so far away from me, I want to see what you look like, I want to know, what do you look like, my mother. ”

Speaking of which, he sobbed a few times and continued:

"I'm nine years old, my current mother told me, I'm already a man, I can't cry, when I miss you, I want to cry many times, but I can't help it, in the future, I won't cry, everyone is very good to me, I'm happy every day, you ...... You can rest assured! ”

After saying this, he looked at the two new tombs again and asked in a low voice:

"Mother, what the hell is going on? I have too many questions about you, but my mother always says that I am too young to tell me what happened to you, and I can guess that these two people must have something to do with you......"

"Huaiyu, it's time for us to go back."

Maybe there was something to do at home, or maybe it was worried that Huaiyu would be sad if she stayed here for a long time, so Luo Lan asked Ah Cai to urge Huaiyu.

Huaiyu nodded hurriedly, and after he kowtowed to the grave three times again, he reluctantly got up, followed Ah Cai, and walked back down the mountain step by step.

On the way back to the city, Luo Lan looked at Huaiyu who was worried, and asked softly:

"Unhappy?"

Huaiyu shook his head hurriedly,

"No, on my ninth birthday, my mother took me to see my mother, and I was very happy."

"But when my mother saw that you seemed to have something on your mind, are you still thinking about the two new tombs?"

Luo Lan knew that if she didn't explain this matter to him clearly, she was afraid that he would always be thinking about it in her heart, but if she told him that his mother was robbed by his own father, and at the cost of brutally killing his mother's men and children, this fact would probably leave a shadow in Huaiyu's heart.

Huaiyu was afraid that Luo Lan would be angry, so he hurriedly shook his head and denied it,

"I didn't ...... No, I just don't understand why they're so close to my mother. ”

Luo Lan raised his head, patted him on the shoulder, muttered for a while, and said softly:

"Since you want to know so much, I will tell you that the two tombs, one of which belongs to your uncle and the other to ...... It was your cousin's, and they all died in accidents. ”

Hearing this, Huaiyu became interested, and he couldn't help but ask:

"Who brought their graves here?"

"It's a brother with a different surname from your mother, you saw him when you were very young, but now, he probably doesn't want to disturb your peaceful life, so he didn't come to see you."

"Then why didn't my mother enter the royal mausoleum, but be buried in the mass grave in the west of the city?"

This......

Huaiyu's questions were one after another, and Luo Lan had to use countless lies to fulfill the first lie, and the lies that were made up made up made her a little overwhelmed.

She was a little hesitant again, she really didn't know how to answer this question.

But looking at Huaiyu's eyes expecting to know the answer, she still lied to him:

"Because...... Because your mother said before she died, she didn't want to enter the royal mausoleum, there was no freedom in life, after death, she wants to live freely, she lives there now, the scenery is pleasant, and it is very peaceful, maybe it is the place she wants. ”

"Oh!"

Huaiyu nodded incomprehensibly, though he wanted to ask the question he had tried to ask several times, (How did his father and mother die?). Why did he die on the same day,) but he stopped, because he knew that his mother would definitely refuse to answer the question on the grounds that he was still young.

When they returned to Yuwang's Mansion, they happened to meet the carriage of Xiwang's Mansion at the door, and Yu Qiaoqiao hurriedly brought Xiaobao to her.

"Xiaobao, hurry up and salute Siniang."

Xiaobao half-bowed and saluted respectfully:

"Siniang is good, Brother Huaiyu is so ......"

Luo Lan hurriedly smiled and stepped forward to help him up,

"Xiaobao is really getting more and more sensible, my brothers and sisters are waiting for you, let's go in!"

Just as she was about to welcome Xiaobao in, Leng Xi walked towards her and saluted her with her fists.

"Fourth sister-in-law, fifth brother is polite."

Luo Lan looked at Leng Xi's face, and always felt indescribably bored, and she always felt that this Leng Xi was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

After nodding to him, she motioned for Yu Qiaoqiao to take Xiaobao and walk towards the palace.
