Chapter 581 Finale (5)
Mu Xirou looked at him coldly, and there seemed to be a flash of water in her eyes, but soon there was only a cold and cold feeling: "Mu family, I don't have an older brother. I was born in a rural mountain village. My parents are unknown. Who is your sister? Maybe I'll die long ago."
Xuan Pei shouted in a deep voice: "Take it away!" Mu Feng screamed and was dragged away.
The silence in the hall returned to its original state, and Mu Xirou knelt down again. Her expression was very calm, but the bleeding had begun to ooze out of her palms.
She said, "I'd like to ask Your Majesty to allow me to become a monk and practice, and the ancient Buddha of Qinglantern will spend the rest of his life."
Xuan Pei glanced at her deeply and said, "Accurate."
Mu Xirou kowtowed and thanked him before leaving. After Mu Xirou left, Mingyue couldn't help asking Xuan Pei: "Why did Your Majesty do that?"
Let Mu Xirou watch her proud brother lover with her face, which actually has such a face. Although she saved her life, she lost the courage to live and was discouraged by life. Mingyue thought Xuan Pei was different to Mu Xirou, so she took care of her like this, but in this way, it seemed that she simply made Mu Xirou sober, regardless of the possible ending. Why?
Why? Xuan Li said lightly: "She will always figure it out."
It is better to have a short pain than a long pain. Mu Xirou's experience always reminds him of another person, but that person does not have Mu Xirou's good temper in this life, and is regarded as a pawn, and finally pays the price of his life. Every time he sees Mu Xirou, it is like seeing that person. Even if he attracts his attention because of the same experience, he will not let some things happen again.
Some fools can do it once, while some people can read it wrong once.
The bitter summer of the Dajin Dynasty was particularly long. Because of the war, it seemed to have turned into a hot desert, without any chance. Xuan Li's people finally withdrew from the capital and reached the edge of the city gate. After all, Xuan Pei's men were outnumbered. Xuan Pei's men had many military generals, including Zhao Guang, father and son of the General's Mansion, Jiang Xinzhi, a young and brave war god, Jiang Xinzhi, a literary god of war, and Liu Min, and Xiao Shao's hundreds of thousands of Jinyiwei. Xuan Li's people were defeated and retreated. Among them, Jiang Xinzhi and Xiao Shao's Jinyiwei were particularly fierce, almost as cruel and unreasonable as the autumn wind swept the fallen leaves. Sometimes, they were obviously in equal numbers against Xuan Li's army, sometimes even far from the same. In the end, it almost became a unilateral massacre.
Xiao Shao has always brought the habit of killers to the battlefield. In the eyes of the Jinyiwei, the enemy cannot be called an enemy, but can only become prey, so slaughter became an instinct. Everyone knows why Jiang Xinzhi and Xiao Shao were so crazy, because Xuan Li kidnapped Jiang Ruan and killed her.
Xuan Li was willing to make this decision, probably because Jiang Ruan was in his hands, so he was so reckless. As long as the Jinyiwei did not come forward, Xuan Pei's people would naturally have to tie him. Who knew that Yuanchuan's last plan was to plot him in, so he became a mortal hatred with Xiao Shao. The people who were against the Jinyiwei would have been more difficult to walk in the world.
In addition, Xuan Pei was in charge of the court and was in good order. Even those ministers who were still unstable and had a lucky mentality in the battle for the throne were arranged and dealt with one by one by Xuan Pei. Among the ministers who were strongly supported by Xuan Pei, there were many of them who followed his confidants at the beginning. He had a clear distinction between rewards and punishments, and his behavior of settled accounts after the fall also made the ministers realize that this young emperor was not a good-looking lamp. He had seen every move of the people in the court a long time ago, but he could not hold back in the past.
But no matter how fierce the war is, no matter how frequent the good news is, the parties involved, whether they are the emperor or the general's mansion, Jiang Xinzhi or Xiao Shao, all have no joy. Especially Xiao Shao, who does things coldly and eats coldly every day, is much more indifferent than before, as if everything in the world can reflect in his eyes.
"Is there no news yet?" Butler Lin, now he should be a new minister of the court. Lin Wei looked at Xiao Shao, who was standing in the pavilion in the yard and didn't know what he was thinking, and asked the people around him.
Qi Feng shook his head. Over the days, Xiao Shao had never given up looking for Jiang Ruan's whereabouts. The Jinyiwei received a notice at every place, but such a large-scale search had no result, which might mean anything. Xiao Shao was a calm and rational person. He could not have known this, but he insisted that Jiang Ruan was not dead. At that time, the Jinyiwei wanted to find some ashes in the temple that was burned by fire and set up a tomb for Jiang Ruan. After Xiao Shao saw it, he was furious and he cut the tomb into pieces and then severely punished the Jinyiwei who made his own decisions. Since then, no one dared to mention the word Jiang Ruan's whereabouts in front of Xiao Shao.
Extreme wisdom will hurt, but deep love will not live long. Since Xiao Shao has to stick to this wish, what can they do? It’s just that they have to keep hopeless, which is probably a bit sad for others to see.
Lin Wei also sighed and said, "Let's go." Just as he was about to leave, he saw Jin Er running out of nowhere, and he looked very excited. He held something, even ignored the light skills, ran in a hurry, and shouted, "Master, there is news!"
Qi Feng and Lin Wei were stunned at the same time, and then immediately walked towards the two of them quickly. Xiao Shao turned his head, and Jin Er was excitedly disregarding the rituals of the master and servant. As soon as Qi Feng and Lin Wei approached, they heard Jin Er's voice: "Young Master, someone found the young lady's jewelry in the pawn shop in the south of the city!"......
Jiang Ruan sewed the last stitch on the small jacket, bit off the thread with her mouth, and skillfully tied a knot. She did these things very skillfully. Sao Gui couldn't help but praise her when she saw it, and said that she looked like a rich lady with tender skin and tender flesh. She must have never done any rough work on weekdays. Who knew that the clothes were sewn ingeniously better than those of the tailor in the village.
Jiang Ruan laughed. She had lived in the village for a long time. At that time, there were endless embroidery work every day, so she naturally practiced needlework. After returning to the Shangshu Mansion, she rarely touched needlework. But now she was full of joy when thinking about the children in her belly. It was also fun to do needlework. From spring to summer, she has been busy with some small cool gowns worn in summer these days, all of which are cotton cloth, which is very comfortable to touch.
Mrs. Gui said, "But even though you do well, Mrs. Ruan should not do too much. You should know that your day of delivery is approaching, but don't make any mistakes because of this. I have been recuperating these days and the weather is hot, so leave these things to me." She looked at Jiang Ruan's belly and reached out and touched it with love: "Look at this big belly, I must be a fat boy."
Jiang Ruan also looked down at her lower abdomen and reached out to touch her. She seemed to feel that her child was kicking her. Life here was much easier than she had in the outside world before. Perhaps because this place is remote and isolated from the world, the people here did not plan to live a life. In any case, it was very suitable for her to raise her baby here.
