Chapter 5: Residual Warmth

After pondering for a long time, Ji Wanzhu raised her eyebrows, and as the corners of her eyes moved slightly, the red lotus that bloomed in the center of her eyebrows became more and more gorgeous under the warm light of this afternoon. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Slowly raising his feet, Lord Yue Guogong paced around Liu Mo, who was sweating profusely in front of him, and came to Liu Chen's side.

In the end, Liu Chen was still helplessly defeated under Ji Wanzhu's sharp gaze, only to see him with his head down and his waist bent, like a child waiting for his mother's lecture, the momentum that he had competed with Liu Mo before had long since dissipated......

It is also such a picture, but the crowd was instantly quiet, no one dared to ask the doubts in their hearts, the younger generations of the Liu family present all knew, in this huge ancient family, the most terrifying person is not the head of the family who sits on the sword platform, Liu Jingfeng, nor the elders in the ancestral hall of the Tibetan Soldier Valley, the most daunting is the second grandmother of the Liu family, Ji Wanzhu, who can point to the existence of the sword master and scold the mother if she is in a hurry......

There have even been rumors in Fengcheng that this second grandmother Liu is the same existence as the "iron mouth divine judgment", because the second grandmother Liu married Emperor Yuanfu without consulting her, which caused her to be furious, and he brazenly killed the sword platform, and cursed Liu Jingfeng in front of all the relatives and disciples of the Sword Pavilion, saying that he would not have a son in the future, but as a result, the second grandmother became a proverb, until today, Liu Jingfeng, who is nearly sixty years old, only gave birth to a daughter!

"Why?" Ji Wanzhu looked up at Liu Chen's eyes, and her tone was quite indifferent.

"No, why......" Liu Chen's eyes flickered, but he still met Ji Wanzhu's eyes, "The child just wants to see his father again!"

"It's been so many years, don't you want your father to rest in peace?" Ji Wanzhu's face was ugly, and Liu Chen could obviously sense that she had been suppressing the anger in her heart, "Do you have to bother him at this time?"

Ji Wanzhu's eyes were full of too many emotions, and among all the people present, facing the tombstone of Xuanwei General Liu Qing, if you insist on finding one with the heaviest mood, it may not be Liu Chen, but her.

Back then, the love between Ji Wanzhu, the Duke of Yueguo, and Liu Qing, the general of Xuanwei, was praised by the people of the world, and under the pen of some talented Confucians, they were almost perfect without any flaws.

If Liu Qing married Gongsun Ying after Ji Wanzhu added some gray to their loyal feelings, then the fire in General Xuanwei's mansion was enough to ruin Ji Wanzhu's entire life.

In that game between man and God, Ji Wanzhu was the first, the first person to lose everything.

The pain of losing my love forever, under the cover of the trauma of the times, makes Ji Wanzhu's life more and more sad.

More than ten years ago, on the banks of the blood-soaked Canglan River, if there was no help from the Protoss, if Liu Chen unfortunately fell, then Ji Wanzhu should have lost all the courage to live......

Just like these days, even though Xu Yuyao can be regarded as something she grew up watching, Ji Wanzhu is obviously more cordial to Beigong Fu, and everyone's hearts are open...... This is a fact that cannot be changed, if it weren't for Beigong Fu who rescued Liu Chen, there would only be one more tomb bag belonging to the Duke of Yue Guo next to the tomb of the general in the Valley of Hidden Soldiers.

"The child thought that maybe the father would look forward to the child looking at him one last time......"

Liu Chen smiled, very calmly, very sincerely, without too much pleading, nor deliberately telling, as if he was talking about an ordinary trivial matter.

"Mother!"

Ji Wanzhu was silent, staring at Liu Chen with dead eyes, after His Royal Highness the King of Canglan sighed bitterly, he took a step forward, approached Ji Wanzhu's side, lowered his head slightly, he was close to Ji Wanzhu's ear, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Two months later, the child will go to the front line, to be honest, whether he can come back alive is unknown, before that, the only thing the child wants to do is to see his father and mother's ......"

“......”

"Really!" The trembling from Ji Wanzhu's fragrant shoulders did not escape Liu Chen's perception, although it was only for a moment, it was enough to make Liu Chen's heart suddenly become heavier, "Mother, children are only afraid, some people, some things, always have no time to say goodbye......"

Glancing at Liu Chen deeply, Ji Wanzhu smiled, then bowed her head lightly and slowly stepped back......

......

The moon stars are scarce, and the black magpie returns south.

The night in Cangzhou is not warmer than Chang'an, and after the endless peaks of the Jianshan Mountains, there is a hot sea breeze from the east, blowing the waves of the Qinhuai River, and drifting away from the rhyme of Qin Se and Ming......

Standing at the highest point of the rockery in the garden, Liu Chen looked far away, and looked at the Shengge and Man Dance on the Qinhuai River, without the solemnity of Chang'an City...... The night of Maple City, suddenly heaven and earth!

"Before, I heard the third uncle say that my father's body was stitched together by my sister-in-law......" Liu Chen chuckled, his face flickered, "I took a closer look today, but I didn't expect my sister-in-law's hands holding swords to be so dexterous, and Jade Yao will not be as good as her for another ten years!"

"The dinner party is in Uncle Jiu's courtyard, you didn't go, and your mother-in-law has also been blamed a lot......" Beigong Fu, who was fluttering in a white dress, tapped his toes, like a fairy in the sea of stars, and appeared elegantly beside Liu Chen, maybe he ate too much at the banquet, Liu Chen lowered his head, and he could still see her slightly bulging lower abdomen, and after laughing, he was greeted by the white eyes of a beautiful woman who seemed to be angry and angry," Giggles, I have long heard that the cuisine of Cangzhou is well versed in the essence of Kyushu, but I didn't expect that any fat chef in the Guogong Mansion could also cook those mouth-watering delicacies...... Hey. ”

"Hehe!" Hugging Beigong Fu's shoulder, Liu Chen once again looked into the distance, "My mother-in-law, she can be regarded as a heroine among women, once she initiates it, the uncle will have to retreat, but today I am sorry for her, at that time, she could have refused......"

"I don't hesitate to open my father-in-law's coffin even if you attract public anger, are you worried that if you go to the south, you won't have a chance to come back?" Beigong Fu's expression was clear, and those bright eyes seemed to be able to penetrate Liu Chen's heart, especially when a blood-red light suddenly lit up her pupils, and fell on this boundless night, the whole world began to trance......

"It's not that you don't know, how can people who go to the battlefield guarantee that they will return?"

"Hmm!"

Beigong Fu lowered her head, maybe it was at the threshold of promotion, for a long time recently, whenever she was in a bad mood, she could no longer maintain the appearance of a human being, although her white-haired and red-eyed image was enough to be able to crown the Eastern Continent, but whenever Liu Chen looked at her at that time, the thoughts of majesty in King Canglan's heart flashed back, and it was just some past that could not be returned.

"I heard from my grandfather, it won't be long before you can transcend the late stage...... It's just one step away from the last Great Perfection, hehe...... What, are you sure to be a god?" Raising his hand to tease the silver thread next to Beigong Fu's ear, the distress in Liu Chen's eyes flashed, and facing Beigong Fu's blood pupils, the relaxation on his face was particularly deliberate.

"People say that they ascend to heaven and become gods, but when they really reach this realm, they will understand that it is much more difficult to become gods than to ascend to heaven!" )
