It is normal for little girls to love cats.
Yan Lin saw it and couldn't help but smile at her.
Everyone's eyes were attracted by Jiang Xuening, but almost no one noticed the momentary stiffness of Xie Wei. When he turned his eyes again, Xie Wei's whole person was completely flawless.
Shen Zhiyi looked at Xie Wei curiously: "Is Mr. Xie going to Chengqingtang?"
Xie Wei did not speak.
The housekeeper bowed to Shen Zhiyi and explained with a smile, "Exactly, it's rare for a distinguished guest like Master Xie to visit, so Master Hou specially asked Master Master to come over and speak."
No wonder.
Everyone in the court and the opposition knew that Xie Wei was easy to get along with, but they seldom heard that he had a close relationship with anyone. It has always been others who wanted to curry favor with him and visit him, but I haven't heard of anyone who took the initiative to visit him.
Knowing that the crowning ceremony was going to be done in a while, no one dared to waste his time by talking too much.
Of course, Xie Wei was their husband, and Ben didn't have much to say.
So after a few words of greetings, the housekeeper led Xie Wei, walked down the corridor, walked around the Chuihuamen at the rear, and headed towards Chengqingtang.
Seeing his figure disappear, Jiang Xuening finally breathed a sigh of relief.
When my heart relaxes, the strength in my hands also loosens.
The restless little cat got a chance, and immediately kicked its legs, jumped out of her arms, called out "meow", jumped up the railing in a hurry, and disappeared into the rockery stacked by the water.
Only then did she feel a thin tingling sensation coming from her wrist.
Looking down, he saw a bloodstain on his wrist.
At a glance, I knew that it should have been scratched by its flapping claws while holding the cat.
It's just that her mind was too concentrated just now, and her focus was not on it at all, so she could only feel any pain until she relaxed at this time.
Shen Zhiyi was still looking at the direction where Xie Wei disappeared, she couldn't help but stabbed Yan Lin with her arm, and joked, "You are the most honored children in the capital, Yan Lin will have the greatest face in the future, and you can actually invite Mr. Xie. I've come to pick up words for you, but I don't know how many people I'm going to envy."
Yan Lin also retracted his gaze at this time.
He lowered his eyes slightly and said, "Mostly it's because of my father's face."
King Yanping didn't care so much, he just coaxed and said, "No matter what, it's always a good thing. Seeing that it will take some time before the crown ceremony will be held, everyone who comes today is a guest, Yan Lin, you are the master, the master As you please. We finally came here, you have to entertain us, right?"
Yan Lin looked at him with a smile: "What do you want to do?"
King Yanping was not very old, so he looked left and right, as if he was afraid of being discovered by someone, and then he blinked and said, "Is there any wine?"
Everyone laughed when they heard it.
Although it was proposed by King Yanping, it was rare for everyone to get together like this, and even Shen Zhiyi agreed.
Yan Lin couldn't, so he had to ask Qingfeng and the servants to get some wine and put it under the cherry tree, and sit down with everyone to play and drink.
The housekeeper stopped in front of Chengqing Hall and knocked gently on the door: "Master Hou, Master Xie is here."
There was a coughing sound, which seemed to be in a hurry to get up, and some old voices contained some emotions that others could not guess: "Come in quickly."
So the butler opened the door.
Xie Wei stood in front of the door for a moment before walking in.
The sky in winter is not as bright as in summer. Most of the windows in the house were closed, and the lights were not lit, so it looked a little dim.
There was a faint bitter medicinal smell in the air.
On the bed with the golden hook hanging on the curtain, Yong Yi Hou Yanmu has added a lot of old age in a short period of time. His temples are stained with a little frost, but his eyes are already sharp as electricity, and he immediately falls to the door that walks in from the outside. on the person.
The restraint of the whole body is full of Yuan Ting Yue Zhi Qi, and there is a bit of heaviness in addition to the composure.
High mountains and seas, walking and singing, like a saint, but also like a hermit.
The long eyebrows are indifferent and the eyes are deep.
Yan Mu stared at his facial features carefully, as if he wanted to see some familiar shadows from this unfamiliar outline, but no matter how he searched for his memory, it had already been twenty years.
No matter how clear the face was in those days, it has been eroded by the years.
What's more, it was only a six or seven year old child, and it was a bit of a fantasy to see the outline of the past from the face of a mature young man. Not everyone grows up and still looks like a child.
It's just that when people feel like they are like them, it's just how they look like.
Yan Mu coughed again and waved his hand gently: "Master Xie, please take a seat, Yan is ill and won't go out these days. Please wait for the delay, sir, please forgive me. Mr. is willing to come, it really makes our house prosperous. Hui."
Xie Wei sat silently on the bench next to him.
Yan Mu said: "The dog is stubborn, and thanks to the grace of the Holy Spirit, he was chosen to enter the palace to study at Wenyuan Pavilion. I heard that he was under the care of Mr. Duo. He didn't cause him any trouble, did he?"
Xie Wei said: "The eldest son is not stubborn, he is very sensible, and when he went to school in Wenyuan Pavilion, there was little time to worry about it. Lord Hou has a deep family background, and his discipline is also very strict. The younger generation... Constrain one or two."
younger generation.
In terms of age, Xie Wei is indeed a junior. But as an official in the court, even the Xiao family will give him three points of thin noodles, and he has never heard of him calling himself a "junior" in front of Duke Ding Guo Xiao Yuan.
Yan Mu's heart tightened a little.
But after that, there was a bit of desolation, and he sighed: "If Mr. Xie is ignorant of knowledge, there will be no people who have enough knowledge in this world. You think it's good to see Yan Lin's naughty appearance, it's probably not seen. He has been a really well-behaved child. Yanlin used to have a cousin. He read and learned literature, and he was smart and likable. Except that he was poor at playing the piano, but he was willing to practice hard. Such a small child would know It’s hard to endure hardships. My sister used to bring him back from the Xiao family to play. When I saw him, I thought it would be great if my child could be born like this in the future. It’s a pity that King Pingnan and The Tianjiao rebelled against the party, and was surrounded by heavy troops, and before Yan Lin was born, the child was gone..."
"… "
Xie Wei lowered his gaze, but the fingers lightly placed on his knees trembled, and he slowly clenched them into fists before he sat firmly.
Yan Mu's eyes turned red, he leaned back on the bed, his eyes were a little vacant, but in his vicissitudes of life, there was blame and pain for the difficult world: "Such a small child, more than six years old, not even seven years old. On a very cold day, the snow was covered and froze together. His mother stumbled out of the palace like a madman, pulled away those who were blocking her, and went to the gate of the palace where the snow was piled high, and went to the palace with her hands. Digging, when he couldn't dig, he grabbed the swords of the soldiers next to him, grabbed the iron drills in their hands, and smashed them one by one. When I knocked it on, my hands were numb, and the skin was frayed and bleeding. When I dug up a child, at the age of five or six, the ice and snow had sticked to the flesh, and I couldn't tell who it was. She pulled back..."
Xie Wei sat still, like a statue.
Yan Mu looked at him again, with tears in his eyes, and the uncontrollable sadness poured out of his voice: "He is only so old, he has never even been out of the capital. That winter, it was so cold, and it was too cold. I don't know if there are any lights or fires in the palace, and whether someone will cover him with a quilt at night. What a heartless person would he be willing to push him out? If God had eyes and showed mercy, he would still call this child Living in the world, I don't know what to look like?"
Xie Wei finally closed his eyes slowly, his Adam's apple surged, and after a long, long time, he opened his eyes again as if something had been pressed down.
He wanted to smile at Yan Mu.
However, the corners of his lips were too heavy and heavy, so he couldn't bend them up, so he could only put a blank face and said in a low voice: "Jiren has a natural appearance, and since God has mercy on him, he should be told to go through all the calamities and ponder it into a tool."
"well… "
Yan Mu actually laughed. Although he burst into tears, he felt that the pent-up energy of the past 20 years was gushing out from his chest, turning into a full of pride and rising to the top!
"It should be the wave of calamity, it should be the perfect tool!"
His sister left in a rage and returned home, but she still did not want to believe that the child was buried in the three hundred righteous children's grave. It's a pity that the world is so big that there is no news from him, but he is only a small child. No matter how smart he is, how can he escape the doom of the besieged city
Can't find it after all.
Everyone thought it was just mothers who didn't believe that their children had gone. Until more than half a year ago, Yu Dang, the king of Pingnan, claimed when they were caught by their men that when they and the Heavenly Sect slaughtered the capital, they were definitely not the sons of the prince. Not among the three hundred righteous children, but was taken away by the head of the Heavenly Sect.
Yan Mu didn't dare to think, if what these people said was true, what kind of life would a child who was born in two high schools with noble blood fall into the hands of such a vicious and vicious chaotic party. The pain that many people don't know...
As long as you think about it, you will feel that the five internal organs are burning, and you can't be stable!
At this moment, he only stretched out his hand tremblingly towards the young man in front of him.
Xie Wei got up, walked to the side where he collapsed, and when he stretched out his hand, Yan Mu grabbed it tightly. The strength was so strong that it hurt to hold.
When he raised his eyes again, what he met was Yan Mu's wide, bloodshot eyes!
It is full of monstrous hatred and hatred of the sky!
In the end, it turned into a deep sorrow.
With a hoarse voice, he looked at him: "When you came, there should have been a cherry tree in front of Qingyu Hall. It has been planted for 22 or 3 years. Back then, there were not many fruits when it was planted, so the child sat there. I read books on the steps under the eaves, and also look at the trees. I look forward to the ripe cherries every day. Now they are tall and luxuriant, and in summer, there are red fruits hanging under the green leaves. Next summer solstice, Mr. Xie Might as well come pick it up and taste it, it's much sweeter than many years ago..."
Xie Wei's throat was already choked, and after a long time, it was so low that he could not hear, and said: "Okay."
After Yan Mu finished speaking, he was a little tired.
He never asked, if the child was still alive and still in this world, why didn't he come to recognize his relatives earlier.
Xie Wei withdrew from the house.
The sky on the porch was so bright that it pierced into his eyes and into his heart. There was a burning pain in his chest, so he couldn't help but raise his hand and press his heart down hard. After living in the corridor, the nails were stuck into the column and left traces, so that they did not fall down.
His brows furrowed, his face pale.
The housekeeper who was not far from the door was startled and hurried over to help him.
Xie Wei stood still.
The housekeeper was horrified and worried: "Are you all right?"
Xie Wei slowly let go of his hand, his eyes were clearly surging with anger, but at this moment he was deeply pressed into the overlapping masks, and when he raised his eyes again, he was so calm, but it was extremely quiet, as if Dead water: "It doesn't matter, it's just that there are some problems with body cold and palpitations."
