After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

Chongming squatted down and smiled coldly.

"Perhaps I should also destroy your hands."

Liu Yunxiang knew he couldn't escape and didn't want to talk nonsense to Chongming, so he turned around and crawled back. The people behind her followed her, walking step by step, and she knew that Chongming was laughing at her without looking back.

He was standing and walking, while she was crawling on the ground. But even so, her body was straight and she did not yield to him.

Perhaps out of patience, or perhaps irritated, Chongming hurried her back to the courtyard in a few steps.

Liu Yunxiang crawled back into the house and changed his clothes first, when Hongzhu came back.

Chongming stood in the middle of the courtyard, looking at Hongzhu with a deep eye, "You want to betray me?"

Hongzhu was silent for a moment, then shook her head, "I will never betray my master, not even to death."

"Oh? Then why did you let Liu Yunxiang go?"

"..."

"Say!"

Hongzhu knelt down and said, "Haitang doesn't deserve to die, neither does His Majesty Seventh Prince and the beggar, nor does Madam."

"What should I do? If they block my way, they must die!"

"But Master, is the path you are taking the right one?"

Chongming's face became even colder, and he shook off his sleeves vigorously, "You were loyal to me before, but after having some contact with these people, you have other thoughts. It seems that I can't keep you here!"

Hongzhu pursed her lips, then kowtowed, "Hongzhu knows that she was wrong, and I will never dare to do it again."

Chongming stared at Hongzhu for a long time, with a ruthless look in his eyes, but he made no move. After a while, he snorted, "I only give you this one chance, don't let me down again."

After Chongming returned to the house, Hongzhu knelt for a while before getting up. She came to the back room and took out the bun wrapped in her arms to Liu Yunxiang.

Liu Yunxiang reached out to catch it. The bun was still hot.

"You also know he is wrong, right?"

Hongzhu sighed, "No one is on the master's side, only me."

Liu Yunxiang looked up at Hongzhu and said angrily: "You can let me go. Why didn't you save Yan Mu, the beggar and Hibiscus?"

Hongzhu sighed, "Whether you believe it or not, I have done what I can do."

At this time, someone knocked on the door. Logically speaking, no one in Fengdu knew them. Hongzhu hesitated for a moment, then ran out and opened the door. After opening the door, two men wearing black bearskin coats broke in.

The leader is older and has wrinkles on his face, but he is still strong. The young man behind him holds a broad-backed sword in his hand.

Seeing this posture, Hongzhu immediately pulled out his sword and said, "You bandits are so brave. You dare to break in in broad daylight, but you are unlucky and came to the wrong place!"

The old man at the head frowned and shouted in a rough voice: "What bandits? We are here to find someone."

Hongzhu raised her eyebrows, "Who are you looking for?"

"Qin Feishi."

Hongzhu sheathed her sword, "You are looking for the wrong place. There is no one with that name in my family."

After hearing this, the old man looked back at the young man, "Do you recognize the person clearly?"

The young man said hurriedly: "Although I haven't seen him for many years, his appearance can be recognized at a glance. It is absolutely unmistakable. I followed him and saw him enter this hospital. There is no mistaking him."

Hongzhu was about to say that they must have made a mistake, when a voice came from behind.

"I haven't seen you for so many years, I didn't expect you to still remember me."

Hongzhu turned around and saw Chongming coming out, so she took two steps back.

"Master, they are looking for a man named Qin Feishi."

Chongming chuckled, "I haven't heard this name for a long time, and it seems a little strange."

The old man stared at Chongming's face for a long time. After confirming it, he was shocked and pointed at him, "It's you! It's really you!"

Chongming looked at the old man and said, "You are still alive."

"Son, after all these years, do you still remember me as your father?"

Liu Yunxiang was sitting in the room. Hearing this sound, he couldn't help but curiously opened the window and looked outside. The two men, one old and one young, looked very different from the Central Plains people such as Darong and Beijin. They had high nose bridges and deep eye sockets. They looked like foreigners at first glance.

The old man in front claimed to be Chongming's father, and looked at Chongming with an angry look on his face.

Chongming laughed when he heard this, "Can you bear the title of 'father'? Are you worthy?"

"I raised you!"

"So what, I am a descendant of the Darong Royal Family, not the cubs like your tribe."

"Qin Fei, you are ungrateful. Although you are not my father's biological child, you were raised by him. When you were ten years old, you just had a quarrel with your companion, and you actually killed him. In order to save you, my mother brought you You escaped. We have been looking for you all these years. Where is mother?" the young man shouted.

Chongming looked at him and clicked his tongue, "When I left the tribe, you were eight years old and very short, but now you are so tall."

It was indeed so tall that Chongming had to look up at him.

"I didn't recognize you on the street just now."

The young man gritted his teeth and said, "You killed someone back then and you escaped, which caused our father and son to be besieged by other people's families, and finally we were kicked out by the clan leader. I have been running around all these years just to find you and my mother. I'll wait for you to be sent to Go to the clan leader and pay for your life, and we can go home."

Chongming walked up to the old man with his hands folded, tilted his head and stared at him, "You didn't ask me why I killed that man back then, but now you want to know why I killed him?"

The old man snorted coldly, "You have been ruthless since you were careful. I told your mother a long time ago that you would harm our family sooner or later, and it turned out to be true. I don't want to know the reason, I just want to take you back and give you an explanation!"

"Oh, if you really regard me as your own child, why don't you want to know why I kill people?"

"I won't talk nonsense to you. Where is your mother?"

Chongming looked at the old man, then let out a long sigh, turned around and walked to the grave, "She has been buried here for more than ten years. I didn't expect that her husband and son would come here again."

Hearing this, the old man and the young man were shocked and turned around to look at the tomb.

"You said your mother...she...is dead?" the old man asked Chongming with wide eyes.

"Is this my mother's grave?" Young Man also looked at Chongming.

Chongming shrugged, "Yes, she took me out that year and fled to Fengdu, and then she died in this hospital."

The old man ran to the grave and looked at it. He was stunned for a long time, and then cried loudly: "My dear, is it really you? Is this beast lying to me? How could you... I am looking for you with my son, but When we find you, our family of three will be reunited!"

The young man knelt down in front of the grave, called mother several times, and burst into tears.

Chongming stood behind and looked at them funny.

"She told me that in the East Palace, the prince is well-dressed and well-fed, and the prince is gentle and courteous, and he treats her very well, but if she is given a choice, she will only follow you. In a broken tent, she grazes and works during the day, and watches the children and chats about household chores at night. She loves days like this."

Hearing this, the old man became even more sad.

"Mother, why didn't you wait for me! You're stupid. You took him to escape, but you risked your own life."

The father and son cried against the grave for a long time. The young man wiped away his tears and turned to ask Chongming, "Tell me, how did my mother die?"

Chongming fell into memories, thought of something, his face suddenly darkened, and he said in a cold voice: "I, I killed her."
