Reign of the Phoenix - Chapter 699
After saying goodbye to He Lan MINGYE and Yuan LAN, Yan Yuexuan helped Murong Zhining onto the splendid dragon pattern carriage. The carriage passed through the boiling farewell crowd and drove onto the renovated spacious and smooth official road and headed for Shangjing.
Before and after the Dragon chariot, there was a team fully armed and guarded by soldiers. Two carriages were followed by the Dragon chariot. In the first carriage were Caisang, Yang suoer and Jin Wan, while in the second, Jin Yang, Mrs. Jin and Xiao Jinbao were seated. Chiyun Siyuan, Shi Yong, Shen Hongbo and Meng Xia were on horseback.
Looking at the familiar scenery outside the window, Yan Yuexuan could not help but show his attachment and reluctance: “Ning’er, it’s a pity that Yongning is too far away from Shangjing. I don’t know when and when I want to go back to Yongning? I really miss that period of “Huangsha hundred battles wearing gold armour”. I want to put on the war robe again and gallop on the battlefield. I can only dream about it! ”
Murong Zhining attached to Yan Yuexuan’s arms: “no, you are wearing gold armor. Your majestic appearance is always printed in Yu Ning’er’s memory! Xuan, how lucky is a country to be free from war? Let those years of war be hidden in your memory! As the king of a country, there are many more important matters than war waiting for you to make decisions. You just changed your identity and took on more important responsibilities. Why are you reluctant to give up the past? ”
Yan Yuexuan’s chin gently rubbed on Murong Zhining’s head: “then I will settle down and practice martial arts, return to the sun of Huashan Mountain and herd cattle in the peach forest. But you must always spur me, lest I be born in distress, and die in peace
Murong Zhi ningwen Judo: “Ma fangnanshan only represents Hua Yan’s determination not to fight. The consciousness of defending the country still can’t be relaxed! It’s really original that you let general Leng Xiao garrison Yongning. It’s very suitable for general Leng to be calm and calm when he is in trouble
Yan Yuexuan gently kisses Murong Zhining’s forehead: “Ning’er, if I hadn’t met you, I would have been a guard general all my life, fighting with Helan MINGYE for a lifetime, and even died in * *. Your appearance has rewritten the history of Huayan and ended the situation of continuous disputes for hundreds of years. You are the lucky star of Huayan! ”
Murong Zhining shook his head and chuckled: “the general trend of the world, long-term division will be combined, and long-term integration will be divided. There are definite numbers for the death of Qin Dynasty, the rise of Han Dynasty and the change of dynasties. Ning’er just walked into your world at the right time and witnessed your brilliance
Yan Yuexuan said: “it’s strange to say that I have been fighting with general Helan for several years. It’s clear that we are two bitter enemies, but by chance, we have become close friends. During the past few days with him in Yongning, I had a deep sympathy with general Helan, which meant that we would hate to see each other too late. Unfortunately, it’s a long way to go to Beijing. It’s not easy to see you again. Otherwise, I may be able to talk about the world’s major events with general Helan
Murong Zhining said with a smile: “you and general Helan have similar temperament and mutual admiration. They are really rare friends! However, the friendship between you is as light as water, even if the mountains and rivers are far away, you can’t separate them. How can you worry that there will be no confidants in the world when you are full of friends
In the carriage, Jin Yang held a small treasure in his arms: “madam, our shener is really a smart child. He is much smarter than Xu Heng was when he was a child. God, this is a pity for the loyalty and kindness of our Jin family, which has left such a root for my Jin family. ”
Mrs. Jin wiped her tears with her sleeve: “master, I still can’t believe that we have lost our son. Master, don’t you feel strange? There has been no war in Huayan for several years. How could he die? I heard some gossip. Some soldiers were secretly discussing that Xu Heng was executed by chiyun Siyuan himself. Chiyun Siyuan loves our daughter so much, how can he not leave a little affection? What kind of crime did Xu Heng commit in order to lead to death? ”
Jin Yang teased xiaojinbao: “Oh, madam, you are too suspicious! The emperor said that Xu Heng died in battle. How could he cheat us? It’s not necessary. When the emperor went to SHANGXIA to meet the empress, he heard that there was friction at the border. How could he know that Xuheng was not killed in the war? Xu Heng is loyal to the emperor. It’s our Jin family’s fortune. Don’t be paranoid again! ”
Mrs. Jin kept wiping her tears: “it was about two years ago that the emperor went to SHANGXIA, but there was no news about Xuheng three years ago. This time is not right at all. What’s more, shen’er’s birth coincides with Luo siyao’s pregnancy. ”
Xiaojinbao looked up at Mrs. Jin with black eyes: “mother Luo siyao… ”
Jin Yang’s eyebrows wrinkled deeply: “shen’er, who do you think your mother is?”
“Luo siyao My mother is a madman, and I beat little treasure every day. ”
Mrs. Jin shook her head and sighed, “master, the rumors are true. It has been rumored that Xu Heng had an affair with Luo siyao and wanted to murder the emperor. I also think that this child looks like Luo siyao! Is it Xuheng’s evil deeds discovered by the emperor and executed him quietly? The emperor and his wife thought that they had the kindness of the Jin family. In order not to let the Jin family break the incense, they brought the little treasure to us to raise? ”
There was a layer of tears in Jin Yang’s eyes: “if Jin Xuheng died of treason, it would be a great disgrace to our Jin family. I would rather have been sentenced than admit to having such a son! I want to ask the emperor in person. If shen’er is really the son of Xuheng and luosiyao, I’d rather strangle him to thank the world! “Mrs. Jin snatched the treasure from Jin Yang’s arms: “are you crazy? What’s wrong with children? No, you can’t ask the emperor. My son is a hero who died in battle. Xiaojinbao is not born by luosiyao. Everything is rumored. ”
Jin Yang’s eyes flashed with anger: “madam, how can you be so confused? If Jin Heng Xu died in rebellion, our whole family should be condemned to death. It would be a great favor for the emperor to forgive the Jin family. How can Jin Yang let a rebellious son bear the reputation of death in battle? No, I must ask this matter clearly. If Jin Xuheng really does something immoral, the reputation of Jin’s family will be destroyed in his hands. I will apologize to the emperor with death! ”
Mrs. Jin lamented and cried, “master, are you old and stupid? Even if Xu Heng did something wrong, you had to pretend to be confused and protect the Jin family’s reputation. Master, I have been suffering with you for half a life. I hope that Wan Yue will marry Ruyi Lang Jun and have such a clever little grandson as shen’er. Do you want to extinguish my last glimmer of hope? ”
Jin Yang raised his head and sighed: “women’s way, people have long hair and short knowledge! You only know that fame is important, isn’t justice important? I can’t pretend to be such a fool, otherwise I’ll feel uneasy for the rest of my life
In the evening, Yan Yuexuan placed a large table of food and wine in the Longwen camp to entertain Jin Yang and his wife, chiyun Siyuan and Caisang, Meng Xia and Shen Hongbo, Yang suoer and Shi Yong.
At the dinner table, Jin Yang stopped talking. Yan Yuexuan looked at Jin Yang with puzzled eyes: “Mr. Jin, do you have anything to say?”
Mrs. Jin took hold of the little Jinbao sitting on her lap and pulled Jin Yang’s sleeve: “no, he may have been used to living in * * and he is not used to it for a while. I like to go to Beijing, sir. You can eat in peace. Don’t let the emperor suspect. ”
Picking mulberry and pressing to Jin Yang’s side, he took the vegetables attentively: “father, if you and your mother go back to Beijing to provide for the aged, your daughter will be able to serve you in front of you. Why are you not happy?”
Jin Yang seemed to have plucked up his courage: “Wan Yue, it’s the emperor’s gift that we can be together. As long as we can stay by our children’s side, we are naturally at ease as a father. However, my father has heard some rumors about shen’er recently… ”
Yan Yuexuan and Murong Zhining take a look at each other. They understand that Jin Yang must have doubts about xiaojinbao’s life experience.
Murong Zhining said with a smile: “Mr. Jin, xiaojinbao’s biological mother is a neighbor of the adoptive mother’s family in this palace. She is from hetang’ao. Her family background is pure. She used to be a servant girl in the general’s house, called Liuhui. After the death of qiluo, the emperor betrothed the girl to Jin Xuheng, because Xu Heng was just a continuation of the string, and simply held a ceremony. Xu Heng had just lost his wife at that time. Maybe he was afraid that your two elders would scold him for being mean. So he wanted to take Liu Hui home after the expiration of qiluo filial piety. Unexpectedly, Xu Heng died for his country before this day Fortunately, God has eyes. Xu Heng has left Liu Hui a posthumous son! ” She was a white lie and arranged everything reasonably.
Mrs. Jin reproached, “master, do you hear me? Your son died in the battle for Hua Yan, and your grandson is also of pure and innocent origin. You are not allowed to say such silly words as strangling xiaojinbao or making self-determination to thank the world in the future! ”
Yan Yuexuan chuckled: “Mr. Jin, why are you so suspicious? You see how cute xiaojinbao is. He is my adopted son. When you have settled down in Shangjing, I will let Liu Chuaner Oh, no, Liu sui’er serves in front of your two elders. ”
Jin Yang did not dispel his doubts. He turned to look at xiaojinbao and said, “shen’er, who is your mother?”
Xiaojinbao waved his fleshy hand: “mother Luo siyao. ”
Yan Yuexuan laughed and said, “Mr. Jin, you misunderstood me. Some time ago, when picking mulberry trees, I asked Liu Sui to take care of her temporarily. I could only entrust the little treasure to my maid Luo siyao to take care of her. After a long time of taking care of xiaojinbao, I called her mother. ”
Picking mulberry shook Jin Yang’s arm: “father, don’t you believe the emperor’s words? My daughter tells you that xiaojinbao was born by my sister-in-law, Liu Hui. It’s not Luo siyao at all. ”
Jin Yang looked at chiyun Siyuan with a look of help: “is it true what Wan Yue said, Xian son-in-law?”
Chiyun Siyuan clung to the back of his head: “my father-in-law, my son-in-law has proved that what Caisang said is true. Liu Hui was married by the emperor. She is indeed a member of Jin family. Although Xu Heng is gone, you must treat others as his own daughter
Jin Yang finally dispelled his worries. He gave a long sigh of relief: “Jin Xuheng lacks discipline from below. I’m just worried that he will do something stupid and damage the reputation of our Jin family. When I think about it, I feel like a thousand arrows pierce my heart. Xu Heng has won honor for my Jin family. As a father, how can I doubt the innocence of my son for no reason? I’m a fool. My shener is so smart and lovely. Even if he has a little flaw in him, I should not have been able to tolerate him! ”
Yang suo’er cleverly took xiaojinbao from Mrs. Jin: “madam, you have been working hard all the way. Let me feed xiaojinbao to eat. You can eat with the emperor and your mother in peace and contentment! Xiaojinbao is really cute and looks like brother Xuheng. He is really a little guy that everyone loves. ” She gave little Campbell a kiss on the face.
The atmosphere was revived, and the people were laughing and talking.Caisang leaned on Mrs. Jin’s shoulder and said, “Niang, since I had little treasure, you don’t love me any more. When you’ve settled down in Shangjing, you’ll have to hurt your eldest daughter
“Elder sister, you are not the only one who is out of favor? Since Xiao Jinbao returned to Jin’s family, his father and mother have been holding him for fear of falling on the ground and breaking it. I stand in front of them as if they were nothing
Mrs. Jin bowed her head and wiped her tears with her sleeve: “Wan Yue, Wan Wan, you two should be sensible and understand your parents’ heart. As like as two peas favour one more than another child, he is not the same as his brother when he is a child. “When you see him, your father and I will see that Jin Xuheng is still alive.”
