Sir, I can do it!

Wei Zhao fell into the water, Changsun Ke was startled for a moment, and was about to jump into the water when he saw Wei Zhao's head popping up.

There were some green leaves hanging on his head, and the water was dripping.He shook his head, stroked his face with his hands, pointed behind him and said, "I see something over there."

After speaking, he plunged into the water again and swam forward.Changsun Ke supported the boat and followed behind.This place was close to the west bank, Wei Zhao poked his head out again and said, "There is a box under the water, it has sunk to the bottom, I don't know what treasure is inside."

Changsun Ke pulled Wei Zhao onto the boat, whistled towards the north bank, and soon a group of people punted over.

He took off the leaves from Wei Zhao's head, took off his coat and wrapped it around him: "Someone will come to salvage it later, I'll take you back and change into clothes."

Wei Zhao was wrapped in Changsun Ke's outer shirt, only showing a small head eagerly looking at the water: "It's okay, I'm in a hurry to see the box."

Fortunately, it was midsummer and the water in the lake was not cold. Although the clothes were wet and uncomfortable, they would not catch cold.

Seeing his longing look, Changsun Ke shook his head secretly, and no longer forced himself, he only picked up one side of the curtain to let the sun shine through.

The Huxin Pavilion divides Lianhua Lake into two, and the water area to the south of the Huxin Pavilion is twice as large as the north.On the west bank is a shoal, which gradually expands in a fan shape.

The people of Nanfu moved quickly, and the box was salvaged and placed on the shallows.Changsun Ke docked the boat and got off the boat first.Wei Zhao jumped off the boat and squatted in front of the box.

The box is very big, more than four feet long and two feet wide.It is dark red, and the paint has peeled off in many places, exposing the original wood color.The corners are covered with iron material and are full of rust.It can be seen that the box has been used for some years.

One end of the box was locked with an iron lock, the keyhole was not complicated, it was just an ordinary lock, and the Nanfu official could open the iron lock in the blink of an eye, which made Wei Zhao, who had never seen the world, secretly amazed.

He opened the box impatiently, thinking that it was some kind of rare treasure, but as a result, a plate of cold water was poured over his head, and there was a large stone in the box, which was the kind that can be seen everywhere.

Wei Zhao suddenly withered.

In addition to the stones, there was a bundle of rope in the box, and a large ball of oiled paper.Chang Sun Ke frowned, and doubts gradually rose in his heart.

"Take the box back to Nanfu."

"Is there something wrong with the box?" Wei Zhao stood up, saw a lot of mud on the trouser legs on the shoes, and looked disgusted.And he said to himself: "It's a stone and a rope, it looks like a crime tool."

Changsun Ke ignored it, looked far and wide, and saw black-covered boats swaying in the southern waters, and looked away for a while.

"Go back first."

Shu Ning, Wei Zhao's back guard, has already returned to the palace.He was in a mess, first asked Huo Bao'er to boil water, and after washing it, he felt much refreshed.

Thinking that Aunt Yu was frightened by the Huguo Temple incident and became bedridden after returning home, he asked Huo Baoer: "How is the situation with Aunt Yu?"

Huo Bao'er took a piece of clean clothes, and while helping him to dress, he said, "I heard from the doctor that Aunt Yu's health is getting worse, and I'm afraid she won't be able to survive this summer."

Wei Zhao sighed slightly: "Go to the treasury to get some tonics, I'll go see my aunt."

When Yu was young, he suffered a lot of crimes, which hurt his roots.After returning to the mansion with Wei Ru, he was recuperated by the mansion doctor, and there were ups and downs.At that time, the government doctor said that Aunt Yu's life was not long, and it was because the Zhen Guohou's family had a lot of background and didn't care about expensive medicinal materials. With Yu's life hanging like this, she lived safely for 20 years.

When Wei Zhao arrived at the west courtyard, Wei Xi was there.He looked haggard and his eyes were black and blue.

"Second brother." Wei Zhao called softly, frowning slightly: "My aunt is sick and has a maid to take care of her. Second brother is worried about my aunt, so he should also pay attention to his own bones. If the second brother gets hurt, I'm afraid that my aunt will The more I felt guilty, the worse the condition was.”

Wei Xi lowered his eyes, his eyes were dim and unclear.

"Thank you, Azhao. I know how Auntie's health is, but I can't let it go. It's only a few days, and I want to spend more time with Auntie."

Wei Zhao lost his mother since childhood, and he could understand Wei Xi's mood, so he didn't say anything more.Before leaving, she called Shen Qingping aside, and said: "Take care of my second brother, don't let the second brother be too sad. My sister-in-law is in charge of my aunt's affairs, so please don't worry about my second brother."

Shen Qingping saluted Wei Zhao and sent him out respectfully.

Wei Xi pushed the wheelchair into the room, the room was filled with the pungent smell of medicine, Yu Shi lay on the bed, looking haggard.

When she saw Wei Xi coming in, a terrified look burst into her eyes.

"You're satisfied!" she growled, her voice hoarse.

Wei Xi lowered his head slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Aniang shouldn't touch Wei's family."

"Shouldn't!" Yu repeated these two words, and laughed softly: "Don't forget, the royal court of Yan Kingdom Yushan, the entire Murong clan was slaughtered because of whom!"

Wei Xi finally raised his eyes and stared at Yu Shi: "Wanyanzhe."

Yu Shi gritted her teeth: "Yes, Wanyan Zhe deserves to die, and so does Qi State. They coveted a large area of ​​Yan State, cooperated with outsiders, and slaughtered my entire Murong family. If you don't avenge this revenge, what face do you have to meet your ancestors?"

Wei Xi shook his head sadly: "The enemies of the Murong family are the Wanyan family and the Li family of Qi State. It is understandable for Auntie to take revenge. But the Wei family... Auntie has been in the Wei family for so many years, can't she let it go? Father is the main general, but he did not kill Murong Xiong after all..."

"Shut up!" Shi Yu glared at Wei Xi: "You call Wei Ru's father, call him Murong Xiong, Wei Xi, do you still have the heart!"

"It is precisely because of the heart that we know that there is a clear distinction between grievances and grievances. Back then, the Wei family only followed orders. Aniang shouldn't be so paranoid, and she shouldn't use that way to harm elder sister."

Yu Shi raised her head, the cruelty in her eyes dissipated, and gradually a trace of blood and sorrow appeared.

"How can you understand the hatred in my heart if you haven't seen the bloody corpses of the whole family with your own eyes. They were hung on the city wall of the royal court. I saw my husband who was very gentle to me even though he was violent. I saw Qian Jiao My beloved sister-in-law, who has just passed her age, is embroidering a wedding dress in the boudoir, looking forward to marrying the man she likes. I saw my nephew, who is only five years old, and the day before yesterday he begged her husband to teach him how to ride a horse and fight. , patted his small chest and said that he would cross the battlefield and regain the lost land of Yan Kingdom..."

Tears rolled down the corners of his eyes, and Yu's tone trembled slightly: "You can't imagine that the people who were alive yesterday turned into corpses in the blink of an eye, and will never pester you again, never smile at you again." The glaring blood slid down the high wall, staining the green grass red, and the clear dew turned into blood. The wind blew past, and there was a strong smell of blood, and there was no longer the clear grass fragrance of the grassland."

Wei Xi's chest was a little heavy, he stroked Yu's hand, his throat seemed to be filled with lead, and he couldn't make a sound.

Mrs. Yu murmured softly: "Xi'er, your father is Murong Yi, Crown Prince of the Yan Kingdom, and he was killed by the butcher's knife before he even had time to look at you. You have to remember, always remember."

"Aniang, I have never forgotten the Murong family's enmity."

Mrs. Yu turned her head to look at her, with a smile on the corner of her mouth: "I know Xi'er will never forget. A Niang didn't think about harming the Wei family, but just wanted to drive a wedge between the emperor of Qi and the Wei family. The state of Qi has no Wei family. If you support us, we will lose a strong enemy. This time it is A Niang who is impulsive."

The depression in Wei Xi's heart gradually dissipated, and he said softly: "Mother, you can't stay in the Wei family anymore, I will send you back to Yushan."

Yu Shi nodded slightly: "Aniang listens to Xi'er." She moved her eyes down, looked at Wei Xi's crippled legs, and sighed faintly.

"Aniang is not here, Xi'er has to take good care of herself. Then Miss Qin, Aniang has heard from Shuhua that she has a good personality. Aniang doesn't ask for anything else, but Xi'er can have an heir, not a lonely one people."

"Okay. A Niang, one cannot let hatred destroy one's heart in one's life. The dead are dead, and the living must live well."

"Aniang understands." Yu's eyelids drooped slightly, and hatred flashed across them.

Shen Qingping pushed Wei Xi back to the east courtyard.

"Does the second master trust Madam?"

Wei Xi shook his head with deep eyes. "I don't know, but she is my aunt, and this will never change. Qingping, go and arrange for people to send her away as soon as possible."

"Yes." Shen Qingping was silent for a while, and then said: "Second Master, Third Young Master is intelligent, and with the help of his elder grandson, I am afraid that Madam will be found out sooner or later, how will Second Master deal with it then?"

Wei Xi twisted his fingers subconsciously: "Wan Yanhong will soon arrive in Shuozhou."

"Because of encountering bandits in Tongzhou, Wan Yanhong and his party took a detour to the north. In addition, there has been a lot of rain recently and the journey has been slow. It will take at least half a month to reach Shuozhou."

Wei Xi nodded: "Enough."

Shen Qingping was still in place, Wei Xi glanced at him: "Is there anything else?"

Shen Qingping took out a letter from her arms: "It's from Miss Qin."

After a while of silence, Wei Xi raised his finger and pointed to the book case: "Let's put it aside."

Shen Qingping put down the letter and silently withdrew.

Wei Xi pushed the wheelchair forward, took out a book and read it without looking at the letter.

He knew that the reason why A Niang hated the Wei family was one of the things that happened 20 years ago, and the most important reason was that he injured his legs to save Wei Zhao.He is the son of Murong Yi, the crown prince of the Yan Kingdom, and the only remaining blood of the Murong royal family, but he has become a cripple who is not good enough.A Niang's resentment can be imagined.

But Wei Xi has never regretted it. Every time he sees his cheerful brother, his mood will always improve.Because these are things he can't dream of, since he was born, he bears the blood feud of Murong's whole clan, so he is destined to not be able to be as happy as ordinary people.

But Ah Zhao was different, that fresh life was saved by himself, and only when he saw him could he see the hope of life.

The warm summer wind blew across his cheeks, and the scent of hibiscus stained on the envelope was light, Wei Xi finally set his sights on the letter...

Mrs. Wei is not a mother-in-law who loves to tease others, and there is no such thing as a day and night in the family.Mrs. Yu is not in good health, and has always kept a low profile in the house, only occasionally Mrs. Meng would talk to her.If you don't think about it on weekdays, you probably won't remember that there is such a person in the house.

Due to the breach of the Fuling Weir, the court was in turmoil, Wei Ru was busy all day long, and the affairs of the family were inevitably neglected.Qin Wu had already visited Yu Shi with Meng Shi, and knew that Yu Shi was not well, so he planned to prepare for the funeral in advance.When Weiru returns to the mansion, he will report the truth.

Everyone was busy with their own business, even Wei Yuan followed the teacher to enlightenment honestly.Wei Zhao wandered around and saw that his good nephew was borrowing the book cover of the Thousand Characters, and what was hidden inside was a picture album. He was so angry that he picked up a stone and threw it over, bluffing Wei Yuan. ' One sound.

The gentleman opened his eyes and tapped it with a ruler: "The ruler and the jade are not treasures, and the inch of Yin is competition. What's behind it?"

Wei Yuan blushed, faltering.

"The passage I learned today will be copied ten times as a penalty."

Wei Yuan's face collapsed, feeling aggrieved.

Wei Zhao was in a good mood after rectifying his little nephew.Just thinking about inviting a few or five friends to Meiyuan to support Qin Yusheng, when Wei Shuhua came running wildly all the way back, panting.

"An accident happened, something happened, big brother!"
