Tread thousands of dust

One month passed quickly, but Mo Fengyi still didn't have that drowning dream, which was normal for him, after all, he really didn't have any nightmares in the past two years.

But Xun Can was not so indifferent, he said in a deep voice: "I may return to the imperial city soon, if I stay outside for too long, they will become suspicious."

Mo Fengyi nodded: "I know."

"Aren't you going to ask me when?" Xun Can frowned.

Mo Fengyi sighed: "I don't want to ask, because I'm afraid it's the closest."

"Yes... but I will stay for a few more days."

Mo Fengyi raised his eyes and said, "Because of Songli's birthday"

Xun Can nodded: "He won the crown this year, I still remember that my uncle and I prepared for him together."

Mo Fengyi paused for a moment: "So Songli doesn't plan to go back to the imperial city?"

"Well, I asked him." Xun Can said in a low voice, "I'll go back after I finish the coronation ceremony for him."

Mo Fengyi took a deep breath: "Okay."

Just as Xun Can was about to leave, Mo Fengyi stopped him from leaving and said softly, "Can you stay a few more days?"

Xun Can was startled, Mo Fengyi's voice was very low, even pleading.

"We are also preparing to go back to Pan Xiaotai, I want you to take a look." Mo Feng tremblingly said, a little uncertain, but also full of expectations.

Xun Can knew he had to refuse, but he only heard his own voice.

"it is good."

Gongsun Songli clutched the hem of his clothes uneasily, he took a few heavy breaths, managed to pull himself together and smiled.

Mo Fengyi glanced at Hua Qianzi and nodded at him.

Hua Qianzi came over, and his subordinates handed a huge box to Mo Fengyi.

Mo Feng smiled with satisfaction.

"When a gentleman is first crowned, he must wish him a gift, and crowning him will strengthen his heart." Xun Can said in a low voice, "Today is a very important day for you, Songli, please be happy."

Gongsun Songli pulled the corner of his mouth far-fetchedly, Xun Can took out something from his bosom and handed it to Gongsun Songli.

Gongsun Songli's eyes glowed, his mouth widened but he couldn't speak.

"Songli, I have always known that you hate officialdom and yearn for freedom in the world. Now that you have left the imperial city, you can really think about what you want to do." Xun Can said seriously.

Gongsun Songli clenched the modesty belt, choked with sobs and said, "I remember this...was made by Daddy."

"Yes, I want to give you a surprise when it's ready, so I'll put it here first." Xun Can smiled lightly, "Now that uncle is gone, I'll tie it for you."

"Brother." Gongsun Songli called him softly.

Xun Can was just about to let him enter the door with him, but he was a little dazed when Song Li called out.

"what happened?"

Gongsun Songli took a deep breath: "From now on, do I really want to be alone?"

Xun Can frowned: "Why do you think so?"

Gongsun Songli smiled bleakly and said: "Brother, I used to have a father and you. Since childhood, you have been my goal, and everything I have done is to be like you. You are the first in martial arts, and I also want to First, when you enter the barracks, I will go too. When you send troops to fight, I will be with you. You have become a general, so I want to be a general too...but now...I can't I will target you again, daddy and you have left me, and I will be the only one in the future..."

"You have never been alone." Xun Can said sternly, even with a slight chill, "Songli, no matter how your identity changes, you are still my younger brother, the blood of the Gongsun family."

"But brother, I used to have everything, but now I have nothing." Gongsun Songli said indifferently, "I am looking forward to the days of being a hero and roaming the world, but I never thought that I would trade my home and relatives for it." .”

Xun Can looked at Gongsun Songli for a while, thinking that he knew this younger brother very well, but now, he seemed to find that the young man was a little confused.

"Song Li, we can't decide what didn't happen, and we can't predict the future. Your plans may be broken, and your goals may never be realized. But you are still young, and you have the opportunity to do everything you want to do. I have made many wrong decisions and lost countless things that I regard as treasures, but I have no right to be upset because it is meaningless." Xun Can said calmly, "Uncle is gone, but even if he is still there, I can't decide your future for you, today's coronation ceremony is to tell you that you have grown up, if you have been immersed in the pain of loss, I am afraid that you will never get anything again."

There were tears in Gongsun Songli's eyes, his emotions were not clear enough under the mask, but Xun Can knew that he was very excited now.

"elder brother......"

"Songli, your life is your own, but it is also me, Mo Fengyi, Xiang Qianrong and the others, and Mrs. Xingci...all those who care about you were rescued together." Xun Xun Can said coldly, "Do you know how much effort Xiao Ke has put in to get you to talk? Do you know how long Zi Ming didn't close his eyes to take care of you?"

"Songli, I don't want you to be forced to accept all this, but you must also be clear that you will always have friends and relatives by your side. No matter what you want to do, we will never leave you." Xun Can felt distressed, Gongsun Songli Very smart, he will not understand these things, but he has been smooth sailing since he was a child, and he has never experienced such a huge pain.

Xun Can wants to give him time to relax, but reality does not allow it. If Gongsun Songli can't cheer up, no one can help him.

Gongsun Songli nodded with tears in his eyes: "I will, brother."

Gongsun Songli knelt in the hall and kowtowed three times. He had someone to worship in his heart, so he could continue even if there was no tablet or statue.

Mo Fengyi walked up to him, raised the box and said loudly: "Songli, you are crowned today, we have prepared a gift for you."

Gongsun Songli knew the shape of the box, he smiled and opened the box with trembling hands.

Inside is a long sword.

"It's been built a long time ago, so someone brought it here." Mo Feng said with a smile, "I originally wanted you to name it yourself, but I have already thought of a good one, so I won't give you this chance gone."

Gongsun Songli pulled out the scabbard, and two words were engraved on the sword.

Zhu Rong.

Seeing that he was happy, Mo Feng asked, "Do you like it?"

"I like it..." Gongsun Songli clenched the hilt of his sword, "Thank you, Brother Mo."

Mo Fengyi sighed and said, "I heard from Xun Can that you don't want to go back to the imperial city."

Gongsun Songli stood up and said, "Yes."

"Why isn't someone forbidding it?" Mo Fengyi said and glanced at Xun Can behind him.

Gongsun Songli said seriously: "Because I don't have the ability to avenge my father yet."

"Is your purpose only revenge?" Mo Fengyi said in a deep voice, "Then what happens after revenge?"

Gongsun Songli blinked: "I only think about this now."

"Okay then, let me ask you how you should take revenge." Mo Fengyi said helplessly, "Your martial arts are very good, but revenge cannot be done with brute force alone."

Gongsun Songli was at a loss for words for a while, he had been lying down for the past few months, his martial arts had been negligent a lot, and his wounds had not fully recovered. He should have no brute force now, not to mention Mo Fengyi asked him to take revenge plan?

Mo Fengyi didn't want to hit him very much, so he said: "If you want revenge, you must have a strong backing to help you."

Gongsun Songli slowly raised his head, looking at Mo Feng in a strange cloud.

"Are you willing to join the Wenyu League?" Mo Feng's powerful voice reached Gongsun Songli's ears, and he froze for a long time without moving.

Brother Mo is giving himself a chance?Am I eligible to join?is this real?

Gongsun Songli had a long mouth and didn't know what to say. He just felt sore in his nose and wanted to cry for nothing, but he held back.

"I......"

"Songli." Mo Fengyi flicked his forehead and teased, "Does this still need to be considered?"

Gongsun Songli touched his forehead in a daze, then returned to his senses and said firmly: "I am willing."

Mo Feng smiled with satisfaction, and raised his chin proudly at Xun Can.

Xun Can just smiled.

Gongsun Songli hugged Zhu Rong and asked in a low voice: "Am I really qualified to join? My martial arts..."

"Songli, there is only one requirement for joining the Wenyu League, and that is to be approved by the leader." Mo Fengyi's eyes were clear, "I think you are qualified, and you must trust my vision."

Gongsun Songli's eyes glowed, he wanted to take off the mask, but he couldn't, not only the scar was too scary, but also he knew that he had to hide his identity.

"Brother Mo..." Gongsun Songli said quietly, "Don't call me Songli anymore, he died in the imperial city."

As soon as these words came out, the hall fell silent instantly.

Xun Can's heart paused, trembling faintly.

Mo Fengyi frowned and looked at him, Gongsun Songli forced a smile and said, "Brother Mo...no...Leader, give me a new name."

Mo Fengyi blinked his eyes and frowned, Xun Can stepped forward and said, "Song Li, you are Song Li."

"I know I am, and I will always be, but others don't know." Gongsun Songli said quietly, "Nor can others know."

Mo Fengyi glanced at Xun Can, and said calmly, "I chose the name of your saber, you can choose your own name."

"Call it Yan Zhuo." Hou Ke suddenly said.

The three of them were all taken aback, and turned around to look at Hou Ke.

Hou Ke was a little nervous, but still said: "I think this name is very good, it suits Songli very well."

Gongsun Songli smiled: "Okay."

Then he turned around and smiled at Mo Fengyi and Xun Can: "I like this name, it's a coronation gift from Xiao Ke."

The two looked at each other a few times, and Xun Can said, "It's pretty good."

Mo Fengyi's brows finally calmed down.

"Ah."

Cong Zhenyi was fiddling with her flowers and plants, Mo Fengyi walked over and asked, "Why don't you go to Songli's coronation ceremony?"

"Why should I go?" Cong Zhenyi got up and slapped his waist, "I just met that child by chance, right?"

"You are his elder, and you saved him." Mo Fengyi said calmly, "Thank you very much, Song Li."

Cong Zhenyi said with a light smile: "The elders are right, but I believe in Qi Yao's medical skills, even without me, Songli would not die."

Mo Fengyi said helplessly: "My treatment is finished, and Songli's injury is also recovering, so we will leave Manjingtang soon."

Cong Zhenyi trimmed a pot of flowers and said: "I always have to go. This flower didn't bloom when you came, and it will wither now."

"It's almost winter, and the ones planted in flower pots don't last long." Mo Fengyi said calmly, "Actually, I really want to know, why do you want to live in seclusion?"

Cong Zhenyi smiled inexplicably, as if he didn't know why Mo Fengyi asked such a question, because it was his own intention, so there is no need for a reason

"I heard from Master Qi that my mother invited you to enter the imperial city." Mo Feng said calmly, "Although I really can't think of you, I believe in my mother. It shows that you are actually very willing to join the world...at least, you will not be reluctant to meet people."

Cong Zhenyi stopped pruning the flower branches, and took a few deep breaths: "My child, she is no longer here. After so many years, people will change."

"Master Qi wants to see you again." Mo Feng said differently, "I know that you don't want to participate in Songli's coronation ceremony because you don't want to meddle in our affairs anymore, but..."

"Since I have chosen to live in seclusion, I really don't intend to meddle in other people's affairs. Whether it is the court or the world, it has nothing to do with me. I rescued the child only because I knew his aunt. Besides, I don't want to I have nothing to do with you." Cong Zhenyi said coldly, "I haven't been back to Suhui Pavilion for more than 20 years, and I don't want to, don't ask any more, I won't leave Manjingtang."

"Okay, of course I can't force you." Mo Fengyi sighed: "But I want to ask, why did you leave the imperial city?"

Cong Zhenyi frowned, but still said: "Of course the officialdom doesn't conform to my wishes."

Mo Fengyi sneered: "Really? I remember that you resigned from office and left the city in the eighth year of Yuanxu. Although the time is not right, I still want to ask. As far as I know, when a royal family member dies, the palace must The mother in the middle school came to examine the body, but when my mother died, it was you who came. I want to know why."

"Oh, why else? This rule is set because of the high status of royal women. Those imperial physicians are all men, so they must be checked by the nanny to avoid suspicion. But I am the only female imperial physician, and I am more qualified than those nanny. I'll come." Cong Zhenyi shook his head and said helplessly.

"yes......."

Cong Zhenyi asked again: "Haven't you already forgotten these things? Why..."

"I forgot, but it's not that I can't look it up." Mo Fengyi smiled bleakly, "I'm sorry, I know it shouldn't be, but I can't tolerate being cheated."

Cong Zhenyi paused for a moment, and then said forcefully: "You think I'm lying to you, why am I lying to you?"

Mo Feng was in a state of confusion, he didn't know what went wrong, why he didn't have the slightest clue, Shu Yilian died of illness, everyone knew it, why did he suddenly want to ask, what was he questioning

Cong Zhenyi whispered: "Fengyi, you are very smart. You have been very smart since you were a child, and now you have the ability to be independent. But some things are beyond your control. I hope you can restore your memory, because it is your memory. You can't." Forget, but I don't want you to suffer because of this, it's not worth it."

"Whether it's worth it or not, I'm afraid only I know." Mo Feng said coldly, "Since you don't want to say it, I won't force you anymore, but I sincerely hope that you can go to Pan Xiaotai with us."

Cong Zhenyi shook his head indifferently: "I've already made up my mind, I don't want to go, and I don't want to have anything to do with Jiang Hu or the court anymore."

"I just......"

"Okay." Cong Zhenyi smiled, "You don't need to persuade me anymore, I will remember you and this affection."

Mo Fengyi had no choice but to smile bitterly: "Okay, I can only go back and be lectured by Master Qi."

"You kid has never been reassuring." Cong Zhenyi looked at him firmly, "But now that you've grown up, I've been here for the past few months, and I can see your calmness."

Mo Fengyi curled the corner of his mouth: "Really"

Cong Zhenyi nodded affirmatively and said: "I always thought that you would grow up to be a demon king in the world, after all, when you were in the imperial city, everyone doted on you and allowed you, and you also felt that everything was justified. "

Mo Fengyi listened quietly.

"But later I heard that you climbed to the Lianyang Peak, and after Mo Xian left, you became the leader of the alliance. Actually, I have always wanted to ask you something." Cong Zhenyi said calmly, "Why do you want to be the leader of the alliance?"

"Why do you ask that?" Mo Fengyi raised his eyebrows, "Aren't you not asking about worldly affairs?"

"However, even if I don't want to hear such important events as ascending the Lianyang Peak and changing the leader of the Wenyu League, someone will tell me that Manjingtang is not deserted." Cong Zhenyi smiled lightly, "It's you who really grew up. Get up and change your temper, or is it forced?"

Mo Fengyi blinked slyly: "What do you think?"

"I hope it's the former." Cong Zhenyi said eloquently, "But even if it's the latter, I think you've already calmed down and accepted it."

Mo Fengyi nodded and said: "Yes, so what if you don't accept it? I can only do this."

"Because the Wenyu League needs people like you." Cong Zhenyi said indifferently, "Be courageous, resourceful, and decisive. Only you can truly lead the Wenyu League."

"maybe......"

Cong Zhenyi sighed: "I want to ask this because I have seen you before, so I am curious. I believe that I am not the only one who wants to ask this question."

"Yes, many people have asked me." Mo Fengyi said indifferently, "Even everyone, but some people are not curious, but questioning."

In the past few years since he became the leader of the alliance, and even since he shocked the whole world by ascending to the Lianyang Peak, the curiosity, puzzlement, even doubts and contempt that Mo Fengyi heard have already made him feel indifferent.He tried to explain it before, but others might not listen to it. They probably just thought he was too young and unconvinced. Who really cared whether he was qualified or not?What's more, he couldn't explain it, and later Hua Qianzi and Ling Ziming came to comfort him, so he completely ignored these voices of doubt, and only did his own thing well.

Cong Zhenyi reached out to caress his forearm, and said with gentle eyes: "You are the youngest leader of the Wenyu League since its founding, and you are also the leader who has carried the Wenyu League forward. As far as I know, the Wenyu League has grown in power over the past few years. , unrivaled, became the real No. [-] martial artist. You have surpassed your father, even when he was young, son, you are doing very well."

Mo Fengyi froze for a moment, then smiled brightly.

It's not that Mo Fengyi has never heard compliments, all kinds of compliments and flattery. He listened to different people almost every day, but only this time, when he heard Cong Zhenyi's "good job", he suddenly felt A burst of relief, like after all these years, someone finally recognized what he had done.

Mo Feng moved his throat, unconsciously his nose was sore, and finally he just bowed deeply.

"Thank you."
