Volume 2 White Deer Chapter 29 The Dead Wife

"You look familiar......"

Azu spoke, Yan Qing smiled, and just asked, "Who are you like?"

Touching his head, Azu thought about it carefully, but he looked familiar, but he couldn't think of it for a while.

"I can't figure it out, you wait for me for a few days, maybe I'll figure it out......"

Yan Qing was not annoyed, but her tone was a little funny: "Then Xiaoyou has to hurry, I will leave tomorrow ......"

Leaving tomorrow?

Azu blinked, this Yan Qing seems to have just lived here, but she is leaving tomorrow. Think about the things of the past few days, and leave tomorrow, I'm afraid it is not related to the Qingming Festival.

"You're here to worship the Nanshui Tomb?"

It's a little weird to think about, don't the emperor's relatives have other places to live, and why do they live in this bamboo residence? Or is Yan Qing a side line?

Yan Qing smiled, noncommittal. He just stood up and went into the back room.

"Do you want to come in and have a look? This bamboo house is very different from that plum house?"

Azu was stunned, Yan Qing said this, as if he was very familiar with this Meilan Zhuju Siju. Azu thought that he was just living in this bamboo residence temporarily, but now it seems that there is still some hidden secret.

Since I wanted to see the bamboo house, it didn't hurt to go in and have a look.

I followed in, but I saw that the back room was not as big as the plum house, but it was well organized. If you really want to say the biggest difference, then Meiju can only say that it is more gorgeous, but this bamboo house can be regarded as elegant.

There are all kinds of elegant things in the house, such as pen, ink, paper, inkstone, tea, piano and chess utensils, which are placed everywhere. The windows on both sides are also made of bamboo, so you can see the beautiful scenery outside. The whole layout looks like it is a bit compatible with Yan Qing's own literati temperament.

Yan Qing took a porcelain smiling face Buddha, but saw that the clear tea flowed from the Buddha's mouth and entered the bamboo cup.

Azu looked around, but he saw a novelty, but in fact, he was not interested in any of this. Instead, he looked at the bedboard next to the bamboo bed, but it made him exclaim.

On the top of the bedboard, there was clearly a portrait. The portrait is naturally extremely expressive, the painting is a woman, her appearance is gentle and elegant, but it is not so surprising that Azu is the person above, and he is very familiar!

"Zhu Ying?"

Hearing Azu's name, Yan Qing was stunned for a moment, but he looked at him staring directly at the portrait.

"Little friend, who are you shouting?"

Azu pointed to the portrait, but said: "The daughter of King Wen is Zhu Ying, and she seems to be ...... with the person in this painting."

"Zhu Ying...... I'm afraid that Xiaoyou has made a mistake...... The person in this painting is my deceased wife. ”

Yan Qing had a sad expression on her face, as if she had mentioned something sad, but she just explained.

"Oh...... I'm sorry......" Azu naturally discovered that the woman in the painting was actually more mature, not like thirteen or fourteen years old, but in her twenties.

"It's okay...... It's been a long time since my deceased wife passed away, and I just painted this picture, all as a memorial. Yan Qing smiled bitterly, but she was not too sad. "If you have someone who wants to draw, I can also draw a ...... for you."

People who want to draw...... This sentence aroused Azu's thoughts...... There must be many...... Sister Shishi, Tong Lao, and her father who is far away in Shuntian......

But what I want to paint the most is ......

But I never know what she looks like, and I can only see a dark shadow forever......

His face showed sadness, but he was caught by Yan Qing. Yan Qing took a sip of tea and said lightly: "Xiaoyou is also a little sad......"

Azu nodded, but Yan Qing didn't ask again, just looked at the bamboo outside the window.

"This huge world is like this bamboo forest...... Some bamboos wither, but it will leave roots and give birth to new bamboos, but some bamboos will wither, that is, they will never be seen again......"

"Little friends might as well think about the benefits...... At least, they still have roots...... It's like Qingming going to worship the deceased relatives, at least those relatives still have someone to remember......"

Azu seems to understand whether he understands or not, these words seem to be said by a literati and elegant guest, and he can't say any big truth, but he always has a deep understanding when he listens.

"Little friend, it's time for you to go back...... If it is discovered by those subordinates, I am afraid it will not be good......"

Yan Qing smiled a little playfully: "After all, you are the ...... who came over the wall."

Azu looked at the sky, it seemed that it was a little late, and Yan Qing's urging was also reasonable. Just about to go back to the other side of the wall, Yan Qing brought him a stool and asked him to turn it over.

This Yan Qing is really a strange person......

Azu thought about it, but he just went back to Meiju, but in his heart, he kept thinking about Yan Qing's familiar face......

Who is it......

That's right...... Deceased Wife...... Yan Qing's wife is so similar to that Zhu Ying, and between Yan Qing's eyebrows, it seems that there is some similarity to that Zhu Ying's eyes......

It's like...... Zhu Ying is the daughter of Yan Qing and his deceased wife......

Azu's heart was shocked! Zhu Ying was obviously the daughter of King Wen and the county lord of King Wen's mansion! But he had never thought that King Wen was a standard Danfeng eye, and it was the face of a bewitching handsome, but Zhu Ying was not very similar to him.

Zhu Ying has never seen her mother...... And is it possible...... Her mother-in-law is Yan Qing's wife?

If this assumption is true, then doesn't King Wen know...... But Yan Qing lives in Zhuju, so naturally it should be arranged by King Wen, and the two should be old acquaintances......

Is this the ethics of the royal family, or is it ...... Adopt?

Why does King Wen treat Zhu Ying as if he were his own...... If Yan Qing is Zhu Ying's biological father, why don't the two recognize each other......

All kinds of problems are like doubts, but they are always a line behind before we can see the results......

......

The green lantern is always bright, and the long forest rings the sound of the watch, but it is different from usual, and the sound continues to be continuous.

Qingming has arrived, this is not an ordinary watch, but a mourning cry, which is the soul of the royal family.

In Changlin, there is a Nanshui Mausoleum, in which the ancestors of the royal family are buried, as well as various descendants. On the day of Qingming, the wind and clouds between heaven and earth changed, the real dragon gathered, and the entire Changlin Palace trembled.

The Son of Heaven is coming, and that is the current Emperor Hao, the real ruler. Everything about this Da Ming is in his hands. Shangyuan, and even Ying Tianfu were all shaken, and this ancient capital, which had gone through hundreds of years, once again saw its former owner.

The dragon body of the Son of Heaven is close, and several vassal kings and princesses are also close, just to bow in front of the Nanshui Mausoleum.

Azu opened his eyes.

He had never slept before, and he was going to see the Nanshui Mausoleum.

King Wen wants to be opposed, but it is bound not to be the current anti. Zhu Ying told him that King Wen and the current Emperor Hao are not in harmony, although the two are brothers, they are like enemies.

But now the two of them are going to bow down to the brothers in the Nanshui Mausoleum...... If Azu goes, he may not be able to see some clues. There is another factor that makes him dare to go, that is, the Nanshui Tomb can only be entered by the royal family, and it stands to reason that guards and the like can only be guarded outside, but they cannot enter.

If any strategy is used, it is feasible to lure those guards away and infiltrate.

In other words, Azu has a great deal of confidence in sneaking into it without being detected.

If there is an accident, Azu is also very sure, because King Wen will protect him, and King Wen will not want his deer god son plan to die.

Azu looked out the window, it was the time of the mourning watch, in fact, it was the middle of the night. At such times, the guards outside the Meiju are often the weakest...... Because normal people tend to be sleepy at such times.

The saltpeter and wolf grass under the bed have been mixed to make a powder, and it only takes a small pinch of fire to produce smoke that lasts for a long time......

Wearing a set of dark clothes, he just tiptoed out the door, and when he looked outside, the two guards were staggering, as if they were about to fall asleep. Azu held his breath, but he deftly climbed out of the wall of the main entrance and quietly climbed out......

......

Nanshuiling is already brightly lit.

Outside the Nanshui Mausoleum, there is only one sandwich road, and on both sides of the sandwich road, there are two guards with knives standing in every other position, but they dare not relax a little.

In the past, although there were guards in this Nanshui Mausoleum, it would not be so solemn, but at this time of Qingming, it was a small royal sacrifice, and any young person who dared to mix in it would be a big crime of killing.

A eunuch raised a high voice, but he just drank: "The emperor has arrived!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone knelt down.

On the other side of the road, there was a man in a dragon robe, tall and mighty, with a somewhat rough face, not good-looking and handsome, but ordinary and ordinary. But no one dared to despise him, because he was the current emperor - Emperor Hao.

Emperor Hao put his hands behind his back, but his expression was serious, he just paced slowly and walked towards the Nanshui Mausoleum.

Then there was another shout, but it was shouting: "The queen mother has arrived!"

I saw a beautiful woman, wearing a phoenix robe, but she was swaying, with sadness written on her face, as if she was infected by this clear feeling...... She is the Qin family, the daughter of the Qin family of the Bashu family, and the wife of Emperor Hao.

"King Yan has arrived!"

"King Ning has arrived!"

......

Every time the eunuch's voice sounded, a member of the royal family walked towards the south water tomb. They are the most noble people in the whole Ming Dynasty, but they also have to pass the Qingming Dynasty.

"King Wen has arrived!"

It was another sound, but it was a call to King Wen. I saw that King Wen was not wearing formal clothes, but civilian clothes, with an expressionless face, but he looked like Pan An, which made people secretly envious, and he also wanted to go to the south water tomb.

"King Wen...... Wearing this, I'm afraid it's ......" The eunuch hesitated, but it was an exit.

King Wen just glanced at him, the cold light in Danfeng's eyes swept across his cheeks, and said lightly: "What, it's not right?"

The eunuch was like a bad lightning strike, but he just muttered: "The villain doesn't dare to ......"

King Wen didn't speak, but continued to walk towards the Nanshui Mausoleum.

......

After a few princes and princesses read it out, then the next generation, those royal relatives. Zhu Ying is also among them, but she is not as powerful as before.

After everyone finished reading and entered the Nanshui Mausoleum, the eunuch patted his chest with palpitations, but stood there trembling.

Nanshui Mausoleum is huge, not like a tomb, but like a palace.

And a few royal people are among them, but they don't have the power they had before. Most of them are brothers and relatives, and they have skimmed off the coat of royalty, but they are deep brothers.

And King Wen, who has always been gentle and elegant, hugged one person and had a voice in his mouth.

"Big brother!"

And if you look closely, the person who is hugging you is actually the one that Azu saw in Zhuju yesterday - Yan Qing!
