He's been caught for the show.

After Chen Yin recovered from his uneasy mood, Chu Lu put the two photo cards in front of the child. He believed that the child was smart enough to know what he was implying and how to make a choice.

Chen Yin did see it.

He couldn't help but took a big step back, looked at Chu Lu in surprise, but lowered his head while the elder's expression remained unchanged.

He murmured: "You know?"

Knowing that he still remembers his past, knowing that he deliberately pretended to be father and son.

Chen Yin's pretense is actually not very clever, even if it is not Chu Lu, any adult who is a little more careful can detect the disharmony, but for a child who is only six or seven years old and has a sudden change , he is already cautious far beyond his age.

Chu Lu nodded his head, affirming his question.

But Chen Yin still had deep worries in his heart. He didn't know how much the other party knew and to what extent.

Xie Gong knows, is he... a descendant of the Chen family?

The Chen family who destroyed Qi and Jianchang, with whom he had the hatred of destroying the country and killing himself...

Chen Yin only felt a little bit of coolness from his fingertips, and his body, which had regained some heat just because he entered the room, became cold again.

Just before the emotions fermented further, a warm and thick palm fell on the top of the head again.

The child's mind is actually quite easy to guess, Chu Lu can tell what he is struggling with at a glance.

He thought for a while and said, "I am a dead person, you don't have to worry about it."

……

…………

Chu Lu did not urge the child to make a choice immediately, but early the next morning, the other party took one of the photos and handed it to Chu Lu, and at the same time changed the address, "Uncle."

Chu Lu was not surprised by his choice.

The life trajectories of the owners of the two photo posts are not the same, but the most obvious difference is that one has an only son who is about the same age as Chen Yin, while the other is alone.

The choice Chu Lu asked the child to make was also very clear, either to completely abandon the past and start a new identity - he doesn't mind raising another son, or to keep the original identity and be ready to go back at any time.

But the choice was given, but Chu Lu had already guessed the child's final decision.

——After all, Chen Yin's performance these past few days doesn't look like he is relieved, but it is not something that can be relieved casually.

Without the title that made both of them toothache, Chu Lu nodded in a good mood and accepted the photo post, but before he could say anything, he was almost choked to death by Chen Yin's next sentence— —

The child's eyes were burning and his tone was firm: "I want to rebel!!"

Chu Lu: "..."

"........."

No, I can't wait.

Children's psychological education must be put on the agenda quickly!

Ten years later.

In the tenth year of Kangping, the year name changed after the southward migration probably entrusted the emperor's heartfelt prayer.

The Hulu went south to occupy the land, and the six prefectures of the northern prefecture had long existed in name only, but Emperor Chang found that his life had not changed much after the first few years of panic when he moved south. .

With his personal safety guaranteed, Emperor Chang soon immersed himself in Wu Nong's soft words and the fragrance of the sleeves from Jiangnan beauties, but he did not forget to recite poems and paint pictures to commemorate the concubine Yue Gui who died young and the two of them when they were young. Yao's child, when Jiangnan literati heard this, they all praised it with "love madness".

It was a good news from the North, which finally pulled Emperor Chang, who had become more and more indolent in political affairs in recent years, from the bed of beauty.

It used to be that there were righteous men in the north who organized young and strong people to fight against the Hulu, but now they have returned to the three prefectures, and a minister submitted a letter to ask for the title, in the name of a righteous teacher, to show his heart to restore the land.

Emperor Chang's complexion was not very good.

Different from those aristocratic families whose foundations were all in the north and clamored from time to time to return to the north, Emperor Chang didn't feel that the current life was any different from the past.He didn't want to recall the embarrassment when he went south in a hurry. If the people in the court hadn't mentioned "going north" every few days, he would have almost forgotten that the imperial capital of Dachang was not here.

—But what does it matter?

I am the emperor of Dachang.

The place where I am is the capital of the country.

But it still has to be sealed.

No matter how slack in these years, as an emperor who has been in power for 25 years, Emperor Chang did not lack the emperor's instincts at all, and he immediately smelled a threat to himself from it.

The Hulu went south to plunder year after year, but they had no intention of governing the land.Therefore, although the six prefectures of Beifu have actually fallen, they are still the land of Dachang in name.

But if a person suddenly appeared at this time and regained the "lost land", it would be equivalent to half of the country falling into the hands of the people... He, the emperor, would be in danger, and even though he was called a "righteous man", if he really regained six The land of the state and the land of the north, does that person have no idea about going south?Or, is that really a "righteous man"?

The more Emperor Chang thought about it, the more frightened he became, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the dragon chair under his buttocks was starting to burn.

Not only must it be sealed, but it must be sealed as soon as possible.

The sooner the rebel army can be named "Dachang", the better.

No matter what that person is, he must be firmly crucified as a "righteous man" and a minister of Dachang.

...It involves his own safety and the stability of the dragon chair, no matter which emperor, he will act quickly.

Only on the second day, the envoy went northward with the reward.

"Coincidentally", this is the Yue family who was promoted by Emperor Chang's gratitude for his old relationship with the late Yue Guifei.

……

…………

But the news that came back a few days later surprised Emperor Chang.

It turned out that the righteous man who single-handedly recruited the young and strong and regained the three states was a young man who had not yet been crowned. According to the envoy, this young man had the same eyebrows and eyes as the clan elder sister—that is, the late Yue Guifei— - There are seven or eight points similar.

Although the envoy didn't say it clearly because it was difficult to speculate about the affairs of the heavenly family, the meaning of these messages was already very clear.

——This "righteous man" is very likely to be the sixteenth prince who fell off the cliff ten years ago and survived.

Northland.

Chen Yin's hand holding the letter trembled slightly, and he almost used his whole body to restrain and control the strength in his hand, so as not to tear this excellent Xuexuan to pieces.

A mouthful of silver teeth was almost clenched.

—how dare he? !How dare that person? ! !

The tent was opened, Chen Yin subconsciously restrained his expression, but soon realized that there was only one person who could come in without notification, so he didn't continue to hide his feelings.

It's just that the initial anger has passed, and his current expression is closer to sadness.

"Uncle...you are right,"

He looked at the elderly man in front of him, and tried to pull the corner of his lips, but it was obviously unsuccessful, "He asked me to go back."

Chen Yin knew that his biological father was very good at romantic affairs, no matter whether it was reciting poems or making paintings, he was a great master, and when he was interested, he would even personally compose music, tune, and pluck the strings...

The long letter that was delivered quickly afterwards was obviously written by him himself. The handwriting was free and full of strength, which made Chen Yin very sure that the so-called "writing like a person" was just farting.

Every word and sentence in the letter is full of blood and tears, and the whole text comes through with deep affection and fists.

But Chen Yin only felt angry, so angry that he almost wanted to rush to that person to question him.

—how dare he? !how come? ! !

That man clearly forced his mother and concubine to draw the sword to commit suicide ten years ago, and then turned to him with the sword, forcing him off the cliff.

However, all of this seemed to be nothing in the eyes of the other party, and after ten years, he was able to express a loving father's attitude in the letter without any difference.

Why is that person? !

As if to confirm the mentality of the person who wrote the letter, Chen Yin compulsively let his eyes fall on the black and white words again, but the ink stains imprinted in his eyes only made his stomach churn uncomfortably, and even his esophagus was vaguely blurred. twitched.

——It's so disgusting that people want to vomit!

The letter paper in his hand was taken away, and a cup of herbal tea was handed to him. Chen Yin subconsciously took it, took a sip, and was shocked by the bitter and astringent taste.

He squirted it all out with a "poof", then took several sips to the side, grabbed the water bag hanging on the wall, rinsed and vomited, and after tossing for a long time, he raised his head again and complained to the person in front of him. The young man said, "Uncle, what are you doing?!"

"Grapefruit leaves, clear fire," Chu Lu briefly explained, and then asked, "Calm down?"

Chen Yin stopped talking.

He still feels a strange taste on his tongue, it is definitely not as simple as "grapefruit leaves".

Not to mention bitter and astringent, the aftertaste still has a bit of a sour taste. It must have vinegar in it, the root of the tongue is numb, and the mouth is hot. He suspects that it is also mixed with anesthetics and chili water...

Before he could complain, a pack of candied fruit wrapped in oiled paper was handed over to him.

In view of the cup of "grapefruit leaf tea" just now, Chen Yin is also very vigilant when looking at the candied fruit at the moment, with the words "Is there anything in it that shouldn't be added?" written on his face, but the person who handed it out still revealed A moment before the meaning of taking it back, he took it over and muttered at the same time, "I'm not eight years old."

Chen ·isn't eight years old · because the child ate up a pack of candied fruit in less than half a stick of incense, and at the same time unconsciously showed a little "I still want" expression on his face.

Seeing that he had really calmed down, Chu Lu confirmed for the last time, "Are you sure you want to go back?"

The expression on Chen Yin's face that had become brisk due to the commotion just now subsided, he tightly pursed his lips, and the heaviness and depression that did not match his age appeared on his face again.

The tone was firm, "Go back! Of course I have to go back!!"

He has planned so much and prepared for so many years, how could he retreat when the situation came to an end?

Chu Lu expected this answer.

He just nodded and agreed, without any further dissuasion.

Chen Yin was a little awkward.

Only then did he realize that he actually hoped that the other party would keep him.

However, he knew with certainty that he would never give up.

——How could you give up?How could it be possible to forget? !

He clearly remembered how the mother's concubine's eyes, which seemed to reflect the stars in the sky, turned hollow and gray, and he dared not forget for a moment.

Even at the end, the concubine mother thought he could survive.

She hopes to exchange her self-determination for her son's life.

But that man, the man who kept saying he loved her, never thought of keeping his promise...

Do not……

What about a "promise" that was a deliberate lie from the very beginning?
