After the sound came out, Xu Sheng's tiger-like eyes narrowed, and complex colors intertwined inside.
In the next breath, Xu Sheng looked around and saw that the beautiful figure who was watching from the side had disappeared, and then asked:
"Where's that girl Xu Qing?"
"Go back to the master, the eldest lady said that she will go to the backyard to pay homage first."
The old housekeeper's voice sounded from behind, Xu Sheng nodded, strode forward without saying a word.
At the same time, in Gwangju Metropolitan City in the middle of Daxia, the old house in the deepest part of Qingyi Lane opened again with a creaking sound.
Then a black carriage drove out at the intersection, along the street, and slowly drove back to the old house.
After the rebuilding of the street in Liuye Lane, big trees were planted. It was deep winter, and the yellow leaves were flying and sprinkled all over the world. Then, a steady voice sounded from inside the carriage:
"Liang Po, I've seen my mother, let's go back to Beijing."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Chapter 1670 Guilt
The significance of the New Year's Day to the people of Daxia, besides the reunion, has another particularly important meaning, that is, the remembrance and sacrifice to the ancestors.
As Zhao Yu once said, the Daxia people do not worship ghosts and gods, do not believe in gods and Buddhas, but only pay homage to their ancestors and remember their martyrs.
As the ruler of the Great Xia, the Zhao family has a small population, only a few people, and Zhao Yu, who is now a well-deserved emperor, will go to two places back and forth every year in the afternoon of the new year.
The first is the Jingling Mausoleum located outside Shenjing City, where the former Prince Zhao Jing and the old Empress Dowager are buried, and the second place is the old house in Tsing Yi Lane, Guangzhou Metropolitan City, and the small hill in the back mountain outside the city.
Because that is where Zhao Yu's mother was buried.
In fact, some memories will not become blurred with the passage of time, but will become clearer and clearer, just like the young emperor who is sitting in a carriage at this time, driving under the sky and yellow leaves in Tsing Yi Lane, what is in his mind The gentle and strong figure that emerged became more and more clearly outlined under the precipitation of time.
"Bro, my mother often told both of us when we were young that even if we can escape the cold rain for a while, we can't escape the whole rainy season with just an umbrella, so we need to support each other."
After the carriage stopped firmly at the gate of Qingyi Lane, Zhao Yu's voice sounded again, and then Liang Po nodded, and said in an extremely rare way:
"Your Majesty, I miss Aunt."
"I want to too."
After the emperor's voice fell, Zhao Yu opened the curtain and got off the carriage, and opened his hand to tear the teleportation scroll. The body of the emperor's robe flying, together with Liang Po's bald, shiny, burly body, slowly disappeared into the teleportation flowers that shot straight into the sky.
From the beginning to the end, the young emperor and Liang Po were like two people holding umbrellas under a storm, supporting each other and never leaving.
The sun is setting to the west, and above the sky of Shenjing City, the fireworks that bloom at every hour of the New Year's Day are in full bloom again, and they are even more splendid. What is more lively than the roar of fireworks is the sound of firecrackers coming from every household. Laughter.
It is true that the larger the family and the larger the population, the more lively it is during the New Year's Eve. In comparison, some large families with large courtyards and few people seem a little deserted.
"Second sister, I actually don't like New Year's Day."
In the backyard of Wei Guogong's mansion, a low voice sounded from among the lush trees. Then Xu Hao narrowed his eyes, let the setting sun above shine on his young face, and continued to speak:
"Normally, that's all. Every New Year's Day, there are always only a few people in the family. It seems to remind us all the time that you are always lonely."
After Xu Hao's voice fell, Xu Jin, who had a slender figure beside him, raised his downcast eyes, and a voice came out in response:
"Grandpa is here this year, so it's already much more lively."
After finishing speaking, Xu Jin turned her head, looked at the increasingly mature face of her younger brother, and continued to speak:
"All the disciples in Zizhu Lane have agreed that after the New Year's Eve dinner, we will have a gathering in our house. Hei Pi, Xiao Yuan and others will come."
As soon as this remark came out, Xu Hao's face showed a little excitement, and he raised his voice a lot and then came out:
"Since the bloody battle in Beihai a few years ago, we children of Zizhu Lane have gone our separate ways. Many of us haven't seen each other for a whole year. I just want to see how this guy Heipi's cultivation is. No progress."
"Hei Pi joined the Wilderness Army, and in just one year, he has been promoted to Captain. Xu Hao, you are not enough to fight with one hand."
Xu Jin's unhurried voice directly poured a basin of cold water on Xu Hao, and then she raised her hand and patted the latter's shoulder, a much softer voice sounded immediately:
"You don't have to underestimate yourself, each stage of our practitioners is different, and they don't all rise smoothly. Different stages have different things to do.
"Heipi's age is at the stage of accumulation and accumulation, while you are still young and still in the accumulation stage, so they cannot be compared with each other."
After finishing speaking, Xu Jin raised her head, looked at the big sun that was almost completely sinking below the horizon in front of her, and said in a doubtful voice:
"When the disciples from Zizhu Alley come, I don't know if Elder Sister will participate or not."
"Eldest sister is always easy-going. If there is no call in the palace at night, she should come. By the way, where is eldest sister?"
After Xu Hao's questioning voice fell, Xu Jin continued to walk forward, and the response sounded:
"Eldest sister is still at the Mausoleum in Houshan. You should know that when my parents had an accident, you and I were still young, so even the memory is a little fuzzy, but the elder sister is different. She has a deep memory of her parents, so the elder sister has deep feelings for her parents. .”
After the words fell, the brothers and sisters in Wei Guogong's mansion sighed together, and then under the sound of fireworks blooming, the two brothers and sisters, some solitary figures, slowly disappeared into the vast road with few people. within.
If we talk about the whole city of Shenjing, who looks the most lonely during the New Year's festival, then Wei Guogong Xu's family, which only has one old man and three young people, can be ranked in the forefront.
In the city of Shenjing in winter, once the great sun is about to sink below the horizon, the world will be plunged into darkness in an instant.
But at night, is the real appearance of New Year's Day!
The vast sky of the vast land of Shenzhou is completely filled with gorgeous fireworks after nightfall. The colorful lights cover the sky and block out the sun. , complement each other.
This is undoubtedly an incomparably spectacular scene, because whether it is the stars in the sky or the sea of stars on earth, they are all masterpieces of the people of Great Xia.
Although manpower is exhausted, once a collective effort is used to create a great feat comparable to heaven's work, the shock it brings will reach people's hearts even more.
Under the burst of fireworks, a slender figure stood quietly in front of a mausoleum in the backyard of Zhenyu Duke's Mansion.
The colorful stream of fireworks, reflected on Xu Qing's delicate face, also made the worry in the girl's eyes fully revealed at this time.
No one knows the girl's worry, only in the dead of night.
In fact, since joining the Radiant Army, Xu Qing, the commander of the Radiant Army, has never shown any similar emotions in front of other people.
Because in front of everyone, she is a calm, resolute and calm windrunner!
As a taboo on behalf of Tian Xinghui, it must be as powerful as the scorching sun, killing all evil spirits.
The radiant sun never shows its fragility, except when it is dark and dark, when no one can see it.
"Boom boom boom!"
The sound of fireworks blooming one after another lingered in my ears, and then Xu Sheng's burly body slowly appeared in the shadow behind Xu Qing.
He stared at the back of his granddaughter who suddenly became very thin, with guilt in his eyes.
Chapter 1671 Neither Wind nor Sunny Wind
Rewinding the time to six years ago, it was also the night of the New Year's Eve, and the fireworks above the sky were competing to bloom, reflecting the appearance of the entire city of Shenjing celebrating together.
At that time, Shenjing City was still an important frontier fortress belonging to the three outer passes, and on the eve of the New Year's Eve, Zhen Yuhou Lin Lang achieved a great victory at the Yulong Pass of Endless Mountain, which made the festive atmosphere of this year even hotter.
Countless people rushed to the streets spontaneously, shouting Lin Lang's name loudly.
Although Lin Lang, Marquis of Zhen Yu, and most of the soldiers did not return to Beijing to celebrate the New Year because of the intense fighting on the front line, but in order to reward the three armies, a team with a lot of rewards set off from the White Emperor Palace, accompanied by gorgeous fireworks shining all over the sky, heading north Go to Jade Dragon Pass in Endless Mountain.
This mighty team is quite huge, and besides the food in the restaurant, there is also a Feng Ling of His Majesty Taizu hidden inside.
After the empress dowager was buried and the eldest princess Zhao Xiu went far away to search for the traces of the great ancestor, almost no one in the entire Great Xia court now remembers that this time the award team was from Wei Guogong Xu Sheng.
Fengling, Wasteland, that road is not tall, but the flames are lingering like a figure of a god and demon, and the shocking bloody battle in the goose feather heavy snow!
All these scenes started from Xu Sheng's black eyes intertwined back and forth, and even let out a roar louder than the sky above, and then all the illusions, under the cold and stern reprimand of the old lady, turned into deep guilt .
"From now on, Qing girl of your Xu family can no longer enter the palace as a concubine!"
This resolute shout made Xu Sheng's tiger body suddenly start to tremble slightly, and in the next breath, a voice from the front brought Xu Sheng back to his thoughts:
"Grandpa, haven't you gone back yet?"
As soon as the words fell, Xu Sheng's black eyes disappeared in an instant. After showing a smile, he stepped to Xu Qing's side, and a voice came out in response:
"Grandpa saw that you seemed to have something on his mind, so he came to see you."
Although Xu Sheng's voice was strong, it was gentle. Then the former lowered his head, stared at the two extremely simple tombs in front of him, and said:
"Grandpa knows that you guys don't like New Year's Day when you were young. To be honest, I don't like it either. I didn't feel much about it when I was in the army a few years ago. But this year, I feel a little uncomfortable. Maybe it's It's getting old."
"Grandpa won't grow old."
There was determination in Xu Qing's response, and in the eyes of the Xu family's children, the old man's appearance had hardly changed over the years. Although his beard and hair were white, he was full of energy and blood, comparable to a tiger.
"Grandpa is a human being, so he will definitely grow old. All creatures in this world will grow old, because this is the rule that Dao has set for everyone."
After the response fell, Xu Sheng sat down on the stone chair beside him, raised his hand and patted the table beside him, motioning for the girl beside him to join him, and the old voice continued:
"Compared to the other creatures in the land of Taixuan, the lifespan of our human race is extremely short, so it is like fireworks in full bloom in the sky, passing away in a flash."
After finishing speaking, both grandpa and grandson raised their heads together, looking at the sparkling fireworks competing to bloom one after another, their gazes all showed the color of thinking.
The flickering colorful light reflected on the faces of the two people who were upturned to the sky. In fact, the eyebrows and eyes of Xu Qing and Mr. Xu Sheng were very similar, and the most distinctive one was the tiger-like eyes of the Xu family.
No matter how resolute she is on weekdays, the girl's heart is always soft, especially when she sees the colorful fireworks shining all over the sky, Xu Qing's eyes unconsciously show a trace of longing .
Then Xu Sheng withdrew his gaze, stared at the fleeting luster in Xu Qing's eyes, and suddenly spoke in a low voice:
"Girl Qing, it's Grandpa who's sorry for you."
Xu Sheng's voice was extremely low, and as soon as it came out, it was directly covered by a roar from above the sky. Afterwards, Xu Qing looked back and asked with doubts in her eyes:
"Grandpa, what did you say?"
"It's nothing, grandpa is getting old, and I will rely on you to take care of my younger siblings in the future."
Mr. Xu used a hearty laugh to cover up the abnormality on his face. After the voice fell, before Xu Qing could speak, the former got up directly, and the voice continued:
"The old man guesses that at this point in time, the New Year's Eve dinner is almost ready, so don't stay outside for too long. After all, our family hasn't been together for the New Year for a long time."
"Since Grandpa went back into battle, he has been in the barracks all these years."
"I only want a clear conscience in my life. Even if I know what I did is wrong, I am willing to pay the price, but the only thing I want is to be sorry for my family."
After Xu Sheng's sigh fell, he raised his hand to gather the single clothes on his body, and continued to speak:
"When I was young, the fourteenth family was all-powerful, but now, the population is prosperous, and there is almost no family.
"Don't mention those clans that have cut off their inheritance, even the Zhao clan where His Majesty belongs is only a handful of people."
After the word Your Majesty came out of Xu Sheng's mouth, Xu Qing's eyes moved, and she murmured:
"The area of the White Emperor's Palace is much larger than ours, so His Majesty is actually much more lonely than us?"
"For the emperor, most of them have to be accompanied by loneliness. This is the fate of the emperor's family."
After finishing speaking, Xu Sheng raised his hand and patted the shoulder of the girl beside him, and the voice continued:
"After the New Year's Eve, the imperial court will immediately hold the trial of the ancient secret realm, and the old man will let Xu Jin and Xu Hao try it.
"If you can stand out, you may be able to enter the White Emperor Academy founded by His Majesty. Once you enter this academy, you can say that half of your foot has stepped into the gate of Radiant Night Dire, so I can rest assured."
Speaking of this, Xu Sheng paused for a breath, then stared at the colorful sky, and then said in a voice that eased a lot:
"If you don't have this ability, then you will admit it. After all, we have produced too many outstanding young people during this period of time. If these two little guys are compared, it is because their skills are inferior to others. On the contrary, the old man is still not good enough." I feel a little relieved.”
"Under the Dire Army of the Radiant Army, whether it is the Black Dragon Guard or the Wilderness Army, they are all extremely powerful legions. Grandpa, as a member of the army, should be very clear."
After Xu Qing's response fell, she added a lot of firm words, and continued to ring:
"And I have confidence in my younger brother and sister. No matter how strong the opponent is in this ancient secret realm trial, the two of them will definitely stand out, because they are Xu's children."
"That's right, I, Mrs. Xu, have never been weaker than others in my life. Even if I die on the battlefield, I will be the first!"
Wei Guogong Xu Sheng let out a long cry, just as Mr. Xu said, almost all the children of the Xu family who passed away died in battle, and the Xu family is full of loyalty!
After the howling sound, the old man laughed and walked away, leaving only the young girl sitting in front of the tomb, quietly sitting there.
Then Xu Qing continued to raise her head, watching the fireworks flying all over the sky, and in the girl's eyes, she could still see wisps of flowing blue wind in the colorful night sky.
In the next breath, a murmur came from the girl's mouth:
"I am not a fleeting firework, I am the wind, there is no wind, and there is no clear wind.
"Don't be sorry, grandpa, maybe this is fate."
Chapter 1672 Old People
The wind is everywhere, and it cannot stop. In other words, the wind must drift.
In Shenjing City, a gust of wind came from nowhere, blowing from a distance, first blowing the smoke rising from the kitchens of every household in Shenjing City.
