Chapter 5: The Future Woman
The moonlight was hazy, the valley was silent, and Murong Xue was sitting alone by the river. The river shimmered in the night and slowly flowed eastward. Guan Yuqing walked behind him and called softly: "Big brother!"
Murong Xue turned around, wiped her tears, turned around and said, "Miss Yuqing, it's so late, why haven't you rested?"
Guan Yuqing sat down next to him and said softly: "Big brother, I'll stay with you for a while, I don't know how to comfort you, don't be too sad, okay?"
Murong Xue was silent, looking up at the cloudy night sky, for a long time, let out a long exhale, "Miss Yuqing, thank you! My mother is watching me from the sky, she will always accompany me!"
Guan Yuqing looked up at the night sky, thought of her grandfather, and couldn't help but burst into tears, "Our relatives, no matter where they are, hope that we will be well, obedient, and happy all our lives." ”
When Murong Xue heard this, it seemed that his mother's voice was in his ears again, and tears burst out of his eyes, the night wind swept by, wrapped in a biting coldness, he couldn't help crying bitterly, "I have never left my mother, but from now on, I will never see her again." ”
Guan Yuqing looked at Murong Xue with pity, and said softly: "I was caught by a monster and went into a cave, but I didn't cry, I told myself to live strongly, I believe that one day in the future, there will be a hero who will rescue me from the demon cave." ”
Murong Xue smiled bitterly and looked down at the river, "Where am I a hero, just an orphan who has lost his parents, what else can I do." ”
"Big brother, who in this world has not experienced hardship, who has not lost a loved one? The mountain god gave you the sword because he wanted you to have the world in his heart and to treat the common people well, have you forgotten, there are still many things waiting for you to do. ”
Murong Xue looked at her arm, the scar was still clear, but her mother had already left, and she couldn't help but feel sad, "Why is God so ruthless, is it because my heart is insincere?"
Guan Yuqing saw that his face was gloomy, and sighed, "There are things that God can't do, that mountain god, soaring clouds and mist, with vast magical powers, hasn't he been occupied by demons in the cave." ”
When Murong Xue heard this, she lowered her head and was silent, her mind was full of thoughts, and she said abruptly: "I have a lot of things to do, and my fate has already been arranged, but it seems that I can't do anything about it." ”
"How can a person live a lifetime and do nothing, even if fate has arranged some things, we can still have a choice, and we are not puppets. ”
When Murong Xue heard this, she said abruptly: "My mother died of illness, I should go to the capital and report to my aunt." ”
"That's how it should be!
"Four or five days away. ”
Guan Yuqing saw that he was in a trance, and after four or five days of travel, where could he rest assured that he would go alone, so he said, "I'll go with you, okay?"
Murong Xue smiled faintly and nodded, "Of course, with Rushuang, the three of us will go together and leave tomorrow." ”
--------------
Dali is located in southern Xinjiang, far away from the Central Plains.
On this day, in the palace of Dali, a middle-aged beautiful woman sat in the room, captivating the country and the city, peerless and independent, but her face was full of sadness.
A gorgeously dressed man pushed the door in, it was Duan Yu, the monarch of Dali.
"Yu Yan, are you thinking about your cousin again?"
Wang Yuyan's eyebrows were tightly locked, and tears flickered, "It's been twenty years, my cousin has not been heard from, he is crazy, how can I rest assured." ”
Duan Yu saw her crying, and felt very distressed, "Miss Abi is sincere to her cousin, with her by her cousin's side, you can rest assured, I will send someone out to look for her tomorrow." ”
Wang Yuyan shook her head, moved the lotus step lightly, the clouds were gloomy, and she looked at Duan Yu and said: "Duan Lang, how can I not understand your affection for me, my cousin treated you like that back then, but you never resented it, for so many years, you have not looked for it for me, the Northern and Western Regions, the Central Plains of the South of the Yangtze River, and the poor uncle's family, several generations have exhausted their efforts and are bent on recovering the country, but they have ended up like this." ”
Duan Yu's face was full of shame, and he gently hugged Wang Yuyan's shoulder, "Yuyan, it's all because I didn't bring my cousin and Abi back then, I will definitely send someone to continue the search." ”
Suddenly, the guard outside the door held a brocade box and said: "Emperor, there is a young man outside the palace who asked to see the princess, and he said that the princess recognizes this thing." ”
Duan Yu beckoned him to approach, took the brocade box, opened it and saw that one of the things inside was a jade seal, Wang Yuyan exclaimed: "This is the jade seal of the Great Yan Inheritance Kingdom, and it is my cousin's belongings." ”
Duan Yu hurriedly ordered the guards: "Bring him in!"
It didn't take long for the guards to lead Murong Xue into the hall, and Wang Yuyan saw that he looked like Murong Fu between his eyebrows, so she hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Child, what did you see the princess?"
Murong Xue saw that the person who asked the question had a noble temperament and expressed concern in his demeanor, so he couldn't help but feel close, and hurriedly saluted, "My mother said that the princess is my aunt." ”
"What's your name, what's your father's name?"
"My surname is Murong Mingxue, and my father's name is Murong Fu. ”
Wang Yuyan was pleasantly surprised when she heard this, and stepped forward to hug Murong Xue, "Nephew, I've been looking for you for twenty years, I've been waiting so hard!" After speaking, tears welled up in her eyes.
When Murong Xue saw that the person in front of her was her aunt, she couldn't help but be very excited, her nose was sore, and two lines of tears burst out of her eyes.
Duan Yu saw her aunt and nephew suddenly get together on the side, and couldn't help but slap her hands and laugh, "It's a great joy for aunts and nephews to get together, don't cry anymore." Wang Yuyan let go of Murong Xue, wiped her tears, pointed at Duan Yu and said, "Nephew, this is your uncle, the current monarch of Dali!"
Murong Xue saw that Duan Yu was graceful and extraordinary, and was in awe, she knelt on the ground and bowed in her mouth: "Nephew to see uncle!" Duan Yu smiled, helped him up, and said with a smile: "The family doesn't have to be polite, nephew, where are you from, where are your fathers and mothers?"
Murong Xue came from it and said gloomily: "My father and mother have passed away. Wang Yuyan cried bitterly when she heard this.
Duan Yu sighed again and again, and asked in detail, full of emotion, "My cousin has been busy all his life, but his ambition is difficult to pay, fortunately, the Murong family has a queen, Yu Yan, don't be sad, we have cultivated Xue'er into a talent, and my cousin and Ah Bi are also happy enough to be under Jiuquan." ”
Wang Yuyan looked at Murong Xue and saw that his eyebrows were delicate and heroic, and she felt a lot more comfortable.
"Uncle, aunt, and two friends have come with me, waiting outside. ”
"Come in, please!"
The guards immediately brought Guan Yuqing He Rushuang in, all like fairies, Wang Yuyan remembered the scene when Azhu Abi followed her cousin, and her eyes were wet again.
Duan Yu was very happy to see that Murong Xue was talented, and the two women were elegant and refined, so he immediately ordered a banquet in the palace, and asked his son Duan Zhengxing to come out to meet his cousin.
After a while, the palace people came in with the delicacies of the mountains and seas and the nectar wine, He Rushuang grew up in the valley, how could he have seen such a glorious and rich atmosphere, every dish was unseen, unheard of, and he was so happy that he ate it first.
Duan Yu laughed, "Children are innocent and cute. Whose children are they?"
"Uncle, this matter is a long story, let my nephew speak slowly!" Murong Xue recounted what happened after being chased by the wolves.
Duan Yu and Wang Yuyan looked at each other, surprised and delighted, "There is such an unbelievable thing." ”
