spring as old

Chapter 24

Wei Xiu didn't get a good night's sleep.Perhaps it was returning to the old place, and childhood memories emerged.Those sealed past events, the wounds that I dare not touch, were all torn apart bloody in the dream.

The room was pitch dark, Wei Xiu was lying flat on the couch, cold sweat was oozing layer upon layer from her forehead in her sleep.That brutal bloody massacre appeared in her dream.

In the flames, my father screamed loudly and struck out with a sword, someone's blood splashed all over his face, my mother fell down, lying in a pool of blood, her clothes were soaked in scarlet blood, and there was no such thing as before going to bed. Gentle murmur.The father turned red-eyed and yelled at her and her elder brother, "Go! Don't break it all here!"

As soon as the words fell, he fell into a killing battle.

The elder brother protected her and escaped all the way, but how could a 15-year-old boy resist so many chasing soldiers like tigers and wolves.He hid her in the grass, and his voice was always whispering: "Amon, you hide here, don't make a sound, brother, go and lure them away."

He was only 15 years old, with the immature face of a teenager, and he was also afraid of death, but at this time, he had to shoulder heavy responsibilities.The young girl didn't dare to make a sound, she knew that her brother would die if he went there, so she tightly held on to his sleeve, refusing to let go.The elder brother bent down, lowered his voice, and coaxed her to let go.After all, he was unwilling, his young life was about to end, he fought on the battlefield, and under the leadership of his father, he had killed countless enemies, but today, he was about to die by the sword of his own countrymen.The elder brother shed tears and whispered in her ear: "Amon, live on and avenge your parents!"

The elder brother rushed out of the woods, and those jackal-like pursuers quickly surrounded him. He drew his sword to fight, and fought and ran. Through the gaps between the branches, she saw the movement of the fire and heard the screams.The elder brother's martial arts skills are very good, but he didn't escape very far, and died under the chaos of knives.

After killing the son of the general, the pursuers left, and the people behind them were relieved.Tears were all over her face, and she could finally cry out loud, but she couldn't cry, the mournful cry echoed in her heart, but she couldn't cry no matter what.Her legs were cut by a knife, and she insisted on running out of the grass. The dead branches on the road tripped her up countless times, but she couldn't feel the pain, and found her brother among the dead bodies on the ground.

His face was covered in blood, his sword was still in his hand, and his eyes were still open.His wounds were too numerous to count, and one arm was missing.

Darkness, flames, and blood that dyed the land iron red, all of these are filled in Wei Xiu's dreams. The moment when her mother fell down, her father fought bloody battles, and her brother's never-ending eyes were constantly replayed in her dreams. playback.Every picture is reminding her not to forget how they died, not to forget how she survived, and not to forget to avenge them.

She woke up from the dream with lingering fears in her heart. No matter how many years have passed, when she thinks of that night, she will always feel an unforgettable hatred.Wei Xiu opened her eyes, and there was a faint morning light outside the window, she looked at it for a while, the light turned from dark to bright, the room was originally bright under the window, gradually, the light filled the room.

Tears fell from the corner of her eyes, but Wei Xiu didn't notice it.

When the door was knocked, Wei Xiu came back to her senses. She turned her head to look at the door, raised her hand to wipe away her tears nonchalantly, and said, "Who is it?"

The voice was steady, and the tone was as calm as usual.

A Rong was outside the door: "Your Majesty, the princess is here."

Wei Xiu frowned, and said in a gentle voice, "Princess, please wait a moment."

After a while, Wei Xiu came out.

Sitting in the hall, Pu Yang was dressed in palace attire, long skirt with wide sleeves, cloud temples and phoenix hairpins, when he saw her coming, he stood up and greeted her, Wei Xiu bent over and saluted: "I have seen Your Highness."

Her complexion was not good, there was a smear of blackness under her eyes, Pu Yang couldn't help but asked with concern: "Sir, didn't you sleep well last night?"

Wei Xiu smiled and shook her head: "I have some bed choices, it doesn't matter, just get familiar with it in a few nights."

"That's good." Pu Yang didn't ask any more questions, but his doubts became more and more serious. Did he choose the bed, or did he remember something from the past?

The maidservants served breakfast, porridge, side dishes, very refreshing and homely.

Wei Xiu was gentle and calm, and invited Pu Yang: "It's still early, maybe I haven't had breakfast yet?"

Pu Yang naturally agreed, and she looked at Wei Xiu again, only to find that apart from the black eyes, there was no trace of gloom in her expression, she was upright and open, as if she had nothing to hide.

In the palace, who is not good at disguising, good at talking honey and swords?Pu Yang has long been used to not asserting based on appearances.

After they had eaten breakfast, Puyang stood up and walked to the door. The warm autumn sun swayed down and shone on the stone road in front of the courtyard. Spring mud.

This is a fine weather in autumn.

"Mr. came here for the first time. I'm afraid I don't know the layout of the mansion. I have free time today, so I will accompany you around?" Puyang said.

Wei Xiu thought for a while, then nodded: "Alright."

The general commanded the soldiers and horses of the world, and the ministers accepted the position of the general, so they had the right to open the government and have their own shogunate.This mansion was originally built according to this specification. The front yard was built as a government office, and the offices of staff and staff were all complete, and the backyard was used as a place to live.

This is very much in line with Puyang's wishes. Sooner or later, she will open the mansion. The foundation is there, and there is no need to move or rebuild in the future.Therefore, many places in the mansion have been maintained as they were.

Pu Yang walked beside Wei Xiu, A Rong pushed the wheelchair, and the other servants and eunuchs fell far behind.

Pu Yang pointed to the bamboo forest first, and said: "I like this place because of this forest, I think Mr. must like it."

The forest during the day is different from that at night, it is brighter and more lush and lush, Wei Xiu felt a pain in her heart, she looked at the whole forest, nodded and smiled: "The bamboo is evergreen all the year round, even in the white winter, it can grow in the forest." I can see a touch of greenery here. I like it, thank you Your Highness for taking care of me."

Pu Yang observed her expression calmly, seeing that there was nothing wrong, she seemed to let go of something in her heart, and felt much more relieved, her smile was soft, and her eyes were also soft: "It's just that this place was planted by the predecessors, if there is something that you don't like, Mr. , I will make people change it."

"That's very good." Wei Xiu turned her head and smiled at Pu Yang, "Your Highness always treats me for fear of not doing enough. I understand His Highness's intentions, and I am very grateful."

Pu Yang's heart softened again, and he said with a smile: "Sir, if you can treat me with sincerity, that's enough, why bother to say that you are grateful for such a gift?" Looking at the quiet and elegant path next to him, "Not far away is the It's Tai Garden, it's clean and there's a maple grove, it's the season to enjoy maple leaves, sir, can you go and see it?"

Taiyuan is the garden of Mrs. Xu's residence.

Pu Yang heard that Mrs. Xu is kind and loves to watch her children and grandchildren playing in the garden.

If Wei Xiu really absconded from Ye Ting, she must have been helped by her family members. It can be seen that she is well-loved in the mansion, and this Taiyuan must also carry a lot of her childhood fun.No one can revisit the old place after experiencing life and death, and still be calm.

Pu Yang couldn't bear it, if she wanted to see her husband show his flaws, it would be like tearing open her old wounds, but when she thought that she might hide evil intentions, use her, or even harm her, she hated her very much.

Wei Xiu's tone was ethereal: "Is there Fenglin in this mansion?"

"Exactly." Pu Yang watched every slight change in Wei Xiu's demeanor.

Wei Xiu and Pu Yang said: "It's rare that His Highness is here, so let's go for a tour."

She was very interested, and there was pure yearning in her eyes, nothing else.

The two went to the maple forest together, and the maple leaves were indeed all red, and countless maple leaves piled up on the ground, forming a thick layer.What a quiet and peaceful place.

The maple leaves fall freely and naturally, like flowing water, like distant mountains, and fit the world's avenues, as if they have not changed for a hundred years.A look of nostalgia gradually appeared in Wei Xiu's eyes, and Pu Yang's heart tightened. She put her hand on Wei Xiu's shoulder, and the body under her palm trembled slightly, as if she was frightened.

Wei Xiu turned her head and smiled, as if responding to her closeness, or as if she was simply frightened by Pu Yang's sudden movement.

How good would it be to simply enjoy the scenery in a peaceful and peaceful place?Pu Yang really didn't want to try again, but she couldn't keep this doubt and this lump in her heart.

Slowly pacing forward, Pu Yang turned her head and began to lay her trap: "Sir, do you know who originally lived here?"

Wei Xiudao: "When I entered the front yard yesterday, I saw that everything was in order and there were many houses. It didn't look like the ritual system of the princess mansion. It can be seen that it was there before. To have such regulations, it must be among the three companies and three companies. "The three companies and three companies all have the right to open the government.

Pu Yang smiled and said: "That's right, this is the residence of the former General Xu Luan. Do you know Xu Luan?"

"Three years ago, the rebellion was conspired, and the Holy One was furious, and issued an edict to the three tribes of the barbarians. Among the men, even the babies who were still in their infancy were not spared. The female family members were lucky. Under the pleadings of the in-laws everywhere, they only acted as a cover for the court. Slave. Even so, the Xu Clan collapsed overnight."

She understood it perfectly.

Pu Yang asked again: "Why do you know such details, sir?"

Wei Xiudao: "This is a big case back then. If His Highness goes out to ask now, most of the time he will be able to tell a little bit. Even though I am in the mountains, it is not impossible for me to be deaf to what is going on outside the window."

Pu Yang couldn't find any flaws in his impeccable rhetoric, but Wei Xiu asked: "What does this have to do with Your Highness?"

"The palace needs to let some palace people out, and the Empress Dowager Tan sacrifices again. The Holy Majesty wants to do good for the Empress Dowager. The family members of criminal officials are also pardoned, but there are not many places. Therefore, there are several families in the Xu family that have not been affected. The in-laws begged to come to the door." The first half of the sentence is true, but as for Xu's in-laws begging to come to the door, it is false.

If Wei Xiu is really a descendant of the Xu family, she will definitely not give up this opportunity.There may be her mother, her sisters, and all the people connected with her blood. Given this opportunity, she will try to rescue them.

After Pu Yang finished speaking, he looked at Wei Xiu and sighed embarrassingly: "It's only been three years since the crime of treason, who knows if Dad still remembers it, I don't want to go into this muddy water, I just listen to them I really can't bear to beg hard."

Wei Xiu buckled the armrest, her body froze for a moment, but soon she restrained herself, and said seriously: "Your Highness, please wait a moment, and I will talk about it in detail when I go back to the room."

Pu Yang looked at the black hair behind her, feeling inexplicably sad, she was so solemn and nervous, she really cared.Thinking of her memory in the maple forest again, Pu Yang's heart plummeted to the bottom of the valley.
