Text Chapter 83 The Iron Box Secret Letter
"Seeing that Yuhua was so resolute, I said earnestly: 'Yuhua, the monarch did not abandon you, you ......'
Before I could finish speaking, the monarch waved her hand at me and walked towards Yuhua step by step.
She walked up to Yuhua, bent down to pick up the sachet on the ground, gently wiped the soil from it with her hand, and said to Yuhua pleadingly, 'Son, whether you recognize me as a biological mother or not, you must allow me to say a few words.' Even if I am a heinous murderer, I should have the right to defend myself. ’
"Yuhua stared at Jun Mu viciously, and only two words came out of her mouth: 'Say it!'
"The lady handed the sachet in her hand to Yuhua and said, 'You open it first. ’
Yuhua took the sachet in his hand, looked for it for a long time, and found that the sachet had no mouth at all, so he simply tore it into two pieces along the stitch line.
As the colorful petals in the sachet scattered, a small iron box fell at Yuhua's feet.
Yuhua bent down and picked up the iron box.
"I saw it from the sidelines. The iron box was only the size of a square inch, half a finger thick. The opening and closing were sealed with a small seal with a congratulatory note written on it, but it was dated fifteen years ago.
Yuhua didn't look at it, tore off the seal, and opened the box.
Inside the box was a thin piece of dark yellow silk folded squarely.
Yuhua used two fingers to take out the thin silk from the iron box, and with a shake, the thin silk immediately unfolded, and I saw that it was densely written with words.
Yuhua held the thin silk in both hands and read it.
Reading and reading, tears began to flow from Yuhua's eyes again.
After reading the words on the thin silk, Yuhua held the thin silk tightly in her hand, looked up to the sky and cried, her crying was full of grief and grievances.
Suddenly, Yuhua leaned backwards and fell to the ground and fainted.
Seeing this, I hurriedly rushed towards Yuhua.
"Before I could get to Yuhua, the monarch's mother immediately pounced on Yuhua and wailed: 'Di'er, Di'er, wake up. If you have a good one, I won't live as a mother. ’
I froze in place, tears welling up in my eyes.
Then the Mother looked up at the sky again, and cried out, 'What did you tell her, O Helang, and you can't kill our daughter!'
After speaking, a pair of teary eyes began to look around.
I knew that she was looking for the thin silk, so I picked it up from the ground under my feet, and was about to go forward and deliver it to the monarch's mother, when Ran Tho came up.
"She stood at the right hand of the monarch and whispered, 'Your Majesty, the princess is just overly angry, and it is okay to do it, please don't worry too much. The princess should be sent to the palace immediately to be raised. In this wilderness, staying for a long time may not be good for the princess's health. ’
As he spoke, he leaned over to help his mother.
Then a squire came up to her left. The two of them helped Junmu to stand up.
Immediately afterwards, the attendants next to him gently lifted Yuhua and put it on a temporary stretcher, and the two guards lifted the stretcher one after the other, and there was another attendant on the left and right to protect them, and hurriedly ran towards Tianyi City.
"In the procession of the Holy Mother's return to the Tianyi City Palace, I sneaked to the end, unfolded the thin silk, and read it as I walked.
The letter reads:
--------
"'My son,
"' Condolences to the letter!
"' Since you were lost, my heart has been like a pan-fried and grieving, and I have been in grief for half a year.
"' I know that my fate hangs by a thread and that I will soon die. While I can still write, I will write this letter, one is to express my feelings for the dying person, and the other is to hope that one day, after reading this letter, you can understand your own origin and know the reason for your separation from your parents.
"'If we talk about the root of things, I am the only one who is guilty.
"'I know the whereabouts of my son, but I have thought for a long time, and I have not told your mother the truth, because it is a matter of peace between the two tribes, and not only of my family. But one day, she'll find you, too. At that time, I cannot predict what will happen, and I am powerless to intervene, but I hope that Heaven will have mercy on all beings and can also care for your mother and daughter.
"' When I was in the world, I was betrothed to Yoshizhen. coincided with the list of the poor name and the list of the order of the Xuan, and went to the province to study for three years.
"When I returned to my hometown, I was shocked to hear of the variables, and I knew that I had no hope of being old with righteousness, and all thoughts were lost.
"' On that day, my mind was scattered, and I walked in a trance, and I could not tell where I was. Gradually, I lost consciousness.
"Then he fainted in the middle of the forest and was rescued by your mother.
"' Your mother is the king of the Dryfish, a secret people, whom the Drylands call the Queen's Mother. After she rescued me, she took good care of me, personally carried medicine and served food, and worked tirelessly.
"As time went on, your mother became interested in me.
"' I had just lost my love, and I was physically and mentally exhausted, and I didn't think anything wrong.
"Two years later, the pain in my heart has gradually subsided, and your mother's sincere love for me has melted the last trace of ice in my heart.
"Eventually, I ended up with your mother.
"' Two years later, your mother and I had the happiest moment of our lives, you were born.
"In the next six years, our family, Tiandu City, Eighty-one Mountain, and even the whole territory of Drought Fish all showed an unprecedented scene of joy and prosperity because of the birth and healthy growth of the little princess.
"But half a year ago, after Yizhen came to Tiandu City, you disappeared. Your mother is looking for you like crazy, but to no avail.
"I know where you are, but I can't say it, and my heart suffers intensely and continuously, and my body is getting worse day by day.
"It's all retribution, a punishment from heaven.
"I should have kept a clear head and explained to Yoshi-sung after hearing about the variables, I should have gone to a place where no one could find me, and I should have lived alone, and there was an easier choice, to die.
"But I went silently into this dense forest, and met your mother, and married her, and gave birth to you.
"' I can understand righteousness. In the 10 years since I was missing, I don't know how she managed to survive on her own. Ten years later, when she saw me again, I couldn't understand how much pain and grief had erupted in her heart.
"She took you away to take revenge on me and your mother, and to perpetuate the attachment to me that still exists in her heart.
"I'm the culprit.
"' I have been righteous and have hurt your mother, and I have exiled you from your youth.
"' Now that the matter has come to this, I may entrust my half-crippled body to heaven to punish me, and even if I die, I will not be able to compensate for my sin.
"I will seal this letter in an iron box and give it to your mother for safekeeping.
"I will also charge your mother to give you this secret letter as she can find you when she is an adult, if she can find you in the future.
"' Heavenly, if you are fortunate enough to read this letter, the Father does not have the luxury of receiving your forgiveness, but only wishes that you will be able to make your own decision knowing the above reasons. If I can take pity on your mother's suffering of losing her daughter for many years, and the mother and daughter recognize each other, I will also smile under the nine springs.
"'I expected that righteousness in thee would be good for you. If you leave her one day, you must not forget the grace of nurturing.
"' Stop writing, my son cherishes!
"' Father has never written
"'In August of the year of Gengwu, in Tiandu City'"
