Wen Chan was taken aback by the sound, and hurriedly turned his head to look around in the hall, but he didn't find the second person. He was wondering when the voice sounded again.
"Ah Chan, do you know that people depend on food? Even if you are an emperor, you should eat three meals a day, otherwise your body will not be able to bear it..."
Wen Chan was startled, he realized that these words came from the beak of the bird in front of him, he frowned slightly, stood up from the seat, walked around the bird cage, and said, "Where are you from?" Monster, quickly show your original shape."
The bird didn't move.
In today's world, how many people know that Wen Chan was the emperor
He thought about many possibilities, and even wondered whether Liang Yanbei was reborn like him, but various signs showed that it was not the case. If Liang Yanbei really lived a new life, he might have held Situ Zhoulan in his arms long ago. The family enjoyed themselves.
Wen Chan has doubted many people, but never suspected a bird.
He stared at the bird in front of him, and said to himself, this is definitely a monster bird, talking nonsense is for bad things, why not kill it now to avoid future troubles
But he was very puzzled, why the bird said those words.
So Wen Chan planned to chat with the demon bird, and he sat down at the side again, and said to the bird, "Stop pretending, I know you are a fairy."
The monster bird spread its wings and stood firmly on the wooden pillar in the birdcage.
"Are those words you just said to me?" Wen Chan asked again.
Originally, he wanted to threaten a few words, but then he thought about it, what if this monster bird with high mana is so angry that he breaks out of its cage, it's not worth it.
"Ah Chan, why didn't you come this morning? Are you sick?" Yao Niao spoke again, with the same caring tone as the previous two sentences.
"What's the matter with you? I'll ask you again, why are you always talking about this?" Wen Chan patted the birdcage, thinking, could it be that I guessed wrong
If the bird, like his case, came back from the future, then it was still a bird, capable of nothing but learning to speak.
In other words, the bird in front of him is still an ordinary bird
Wen Chan suddenly felt that he was a little stupid, and he would go to talk to a bird. He laughed at himself and said in a warning tone, "That's enough, if you talk again, I will pluck your hair and cook it, don't eat it." I thought you were sent by Liang Yanbei, so I couldn't bear it."
The bird jumped suddenly, spread its wings and fluttered, and the small birdcage was shaken from side to side by its movements. Wen Chan was startled, and hurriedly helped him up, "What are you doing? You are still angry after saying a few words." What? A bird with such a temper?"
"A-Chan! A-Chan!" The bird yelled crazily, with a shrill voice. Wen Chan was so startled that he dropped his hand, and went to look at the bird again, only to find that the original black eyeballs of the bird were covered with a layer of blood red.
The color was very dark, quite strange, Wen Chan backed away again and again, just about to open his mouth to call out, but his leg bumped into the soft chair behind him, and he fell into the fox fur all of a sudden, and then his eyes went dark, and he couldn't see anything.
The sound in the ear gradually became clearer, instead of the scream of the bird, there was the sound of the wind blowing the leaves, and a bright light pierced, Wen Chan frowned, and slowly opened his eyes.
But the scene in front of him stunned him. He felt that he was hanging on a high place. When he looked down, he could see the red wall and yellow roof clearly.
Beside him is a tree with luxuriant branches and leaves, and the white pear blossoms are clustered together. When the breeze blows, the petals will flutter in the air and slide past Wen Chan's eyes.
pear blossom
The favorite flower of father and son Liang Yanbei and Liang Shaojing in the previous life was pear blossoms. The entire General's Mansion was almost full of pear blossom trees, so every time Wen Chan saw pear blossoms, he was the first thing that Wen Chan thought of.
Taking another look at the pavilions, the small bridge and stone stream in the courtyard, it seems that it is indeed the General's Mansion. Although Wen Chan doesn't come frequently, he still remembers the scenery inside very clearly.
Why did you come to the general's mansion in the blink of an eye
Could it be... Wen Chan's whole body trembled, intense fear welled up in his heart, could it be that he came back again? !
Back decades later, back to this painful time
Do not! Please do not! Wen Chan wanted to yell loudly, but he couldn't make a sound, as if his throat was strangled, and then he realized that his body could not move.
He wanted to struggle hard, but found that there was nowhere for him to exert his strength.
Just when his heart was anxious, the voice of speaking suddenly came again. Looking down, he saw the steward of the Liang Mansion coming humbly, with a flattering smile on his face. Behind him was a man in a brocade robe, who was standing here Look at the scenery in the mansion.
Wen Chan only felt that the man in the brocade robe looked familiar.
When the two of them walked diagonally below Wen Chan, a shout suddenly sounded from beside their ears, "Wait!"
The next moment, he realized that the cry came from his own throat, and he was terrified.
Hearing the sound, the man below raised his head and looked straight up. At this moment, Wen Chan was really frightened.
Because the brocade robed man standing below was actually himself!
He couldn't be more familiar with his own face. From such a close distance, Wen Chan could see clearly that this man was exactly the same as himself, but he was a little older, and his face was a bit vicissitudes. With those beautiful eyes, seeing him again Suddenly, it lit up.
He pointed to Wen Chan and said, "This bird is so delicate!"
The steward hurriedly said, "The general bought this from another place. He is very smart and can learn how to speak!"
After finishing speaking, he also said to Wen Chan, "Quickly say a few words to His Majesty."
"Come down! Come down!" Wen Chan heard the girl's voice.
The steward laughed, "It must be that the young master always chased it, and he learned it after shouting too much."
The man's expression brightened, and he laughed all over his face, "Like a little girl."
"The general put a lot of thought into coming back, just to please Madam, the whole general's mansion treats it as a treasure!" The steward also laughed.
However, the man's smile dimmed after hearing this, and he said calmly, "Your general has a heart."
Wen Chan suddenly remembered this scene. When Liang Yanbei went to battle to kill the enemy and didn't return for several months, he took the opportunity to go around Liang's mansion. It was the first time he saw the bird with a red body, and he liked it at that time. Well, I've missed it ever since.
The gradually blurred scene in memory appeared in front of his eyes, and Wen Chan realized that he had turned into that fiery red bird, and the man he saw in his eyes was exactly himself back then.
He didn't go back to the place he used to be, but just looked at the scene through a pair of bird's eyes. Thinking of this, he slowly calmed down and no longer panicked.
Regardless of whether it was the demon technique performed by the bird, there is no danger now.
Then the steward led the emperor Wen Chan inside, and then his vision darkened again.
This time the light was not as dazzling as before, but a faint candlelight. What can be seen in front of the eyes is very limited, but it can be roughly seen that it is in the house where there are wooden tables and lounge chairs.
A low sigh came.
Turning his gaze suddenly, Wen Chan looked through the cage and saw a person sitting by the table. Half of his face was hidden in the dark light, which made his nose bridge straight and his eyebrows pretty.
He took a breath and recognized that it was Liang Yanbei.
To be precise, his name at this time should be Liang Heng, the general of Xiliang, the husband of Situ Zhoulan, and the father of Liang Shaojing.
There are obvious wrinkles on his face, and even the most handsome face has been left with indelible marks by the years. From his face, Wen Chan can see that this time is a few years behind the scene just now.
The young Liang Yanbei was always high-spirited and had a charming smile, but now his face is full of gloom and helpless sorrow.
The moment he saw Liang Yanbei's expression, Wen Chan felt uncomfortable in his heart, and wanted to ask him, why this expression? Is something wrong
However, he was trapped in the body of the bird and could not do this at all.
Liang Yanbei sighed again, and a weary voice came, "Ah Chan, I heard that you didn't eat breakfast today, and you also suffered from stomach problems. You are obviously sick, why don't you eat well?"
These words struck Wen Chan's ear like a thunderbolt, and all his blood boiled due to the shock, making his heart flustered.
This tone is exactly the same as what the bird said just now, or did the bird actually learn it from Liang Yanbei
This is impossible! impossible!
How could Liang Yanbei say this to a bird for no reason? Can't explain it at all!
"Why don't you know how to take good care of yourself, worry about state affairs every day, and sooner or later you will be exhausted." Liang Yanbei's tone was both dissatisfied and helpless, "You, you..."
"The Xiliang mountains and rivers that I fought so hard to bring down, I didn't want it to exhaust your body, if it goes on like this, if it goes on like this..."
Liang Yanbei was still muttering to himself, but Wen Chan could understand every word he said, clearly, the more he listened, the more he felt his brain congested.
From this appearance, Liang Yanbei is clearly worried about him, right? Worried about why he always skips breakfast, and worried about why he is working hard for state affairs.
However, Wen Chan in his previous life was completely unaware of these worries!
In front of Wen Chan, he always spoke of His Majesty. He respected him very much, but he also seemed alienated. Even when Wen Chan was not emperor, Liang Yanbei still called him His Highness, and it was rare for him to call him so intimately like now. Zen.
Every cry made his heart tremble.
Liang Yanbei didn't know how long he sat at the table, nor how long he read to himself, when the bird on the table suddenly interrupted him.
"A-Chan! A-Chan!" Xu Shi heard it a lot, and the bird also learned to call like this.
Liang Yanbei turned his eyes away when he heard it, was silent for a moment, and smiled slightly, "It seems that I have read too much, even you have listened."
Bird moved his head, "Ah Chan, Ah Chan."
He opened the cage, stroked the bird's feathers lightly, and smiled softly, "A-chan likes you the most, and will be very happy if he hears you call him."
Actually no, when Wen Chan just heard the bird calling him, he was almost scared out of his wits.
"Let's go." Liang Yanbei picked up the birdcage and opened the window. It was dark outside and the General's Mansion was silent. "Leave the General's Mansion, leave the capital, and never come back."
Wen Chan glanced at the night, then looked at Liang Yanbei, seeing his face against the candlelight, he couldn't see clearly, so he just heard him say, "Let's go, don't call out that name again in the future, and don't want to call out that name again." Then say what you learned from me, and be careful to be slaughtered."
It made a low cry, like an ordinary bird, and then Wen Chan saw himself soaring into the sky, flew out of the cage, and flew all the way to the sky above the General's Mansion. Right now is the brightly lit house. Circled around the mansion, many servants saw it, but didn't care.
Liang Yanbei looked up at him, then turned around and closed the window without a trace of reluctance or nostalgia.
After a few circles around the Liang Mansion, the bird suddenly spread its wings and flew straight up, flying very high, submerged in the vast clouds, and the whole capital city was in sight. Strangely, Wen Chan didn't feel scared.
He felt that the bird was still going up, the moonlight was covered by thick clouds, the whole land turned into darkness, Wen Chan's sight also dimmed, and the sound of the wind continued.
He knew that when this fiery red bird left the Liang Mansion, many people were amazed by it back then, because everyone knew that this bird in the General Mansion recognized its family and was not locked in a cage on weekdays.
On such a quiet night, it spread its wings and left.
Back then, Wen Chan felt sorry for this matter for a long time, thinking that if he had known that the bird would run away, he should have sent someone to steal it.
As if passing through nine layers of clouds, there was light again in front of his eyes, and the scenery in his sight began to be clear. He kept going down from a high place, and finally slowed down, and he stopped on a branch.
This is still Liang Mansion.
The tree branch was in front of the window, so you could easily see the scene inside the house. In the room, Liang Yanbei was sitting with his back to the window. There was no servant around, and it was very quiet.
"Liang Heng! Are you crazy? You let Jin'er go to fight?!" A sharp and piercing voice came out, and Situ Zhoulan walked to the window like this, glaring at Liang Yanbei angrily.
With just this sentence, Wen Chan guessed the current time, which should be the 22nd year of Shengyuan, the year when Liang Shaojing was 19 years old.
The frontier enemy invaded and Liang Heng fell ill. Wen Chan suppressed several memorials for him to invite Yingying to go to the battlefield, strictly forbidding him to go to the battlefield with illness. Can't go back.
Later, Liang Yanbei really gave up, and then he replaced Liang Shaojing and asked to fight on behalf of his father. Wen Chan suddenly felt that one head and two big, just after finishing Lao Tzu, his son came up again.
Naturally, he refused, but Liang Shaojing was determined, and even started to hold an expedition banquet at home, which was known all over the city. In the end, due to helplessness, Wen Chan granted him military power, and urged him to put his safety first.
He could accept the defeat, but he couldn't accept that Liang Shaojing was injured because of it. Fortunately, Liang Shaojing returned triumphantly in the end.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Wen Chan only felt that he was in the dark.
Situ Zhoulan had always looked indifferent, Wen Chan had never seen her so hysterical at the moment, her eyes were red and her face was ferocious.
"Are you trying to kill Jin'er?!"
Liang Yanbei said in a deep voice, "Defending the family and the country is what a man should do. If he wants to grow up, he must go through this test."
Situ Zhoulan laughed wildly, "You are too ridiculous, Liang Heng! You can just lie to outsiders with such a high-sounding reason! You still want to lie to me? You are just doing it for your own selfish desire. Liang! I want to guard that Wen! Why did you take our family to be buried with him?!"
"Enough!" Liang Yanbei shouted.
"Enough?" She gritted her teeth, "It's not enough at all! You don't like to hear it, so I want to say it! You worked so hard to conquer Xiliang for Wen, and if he can't even defend this territory, it proves that he is not If you are not worthy of being an emperor, you might as well abdicate early, those sons under him are waiting for him to die!"
Liang Yanbei stood up suddenly, and turned to look at Situ Zhoulan. The familiar face was sickly and angry, "Situ Zhoulan, you know the bottom line of my tolerance."
"So what? You can kill me with one knife!"
Liang Yanbei sneered, "Why should I kill you? You are right."
On his face was an expression Wen Chan had never seen before, it was sharp and ruthless, "As long as I am alive, I will guard Xiliang and Wen Chan, as long as he needs me, I will always be there, Even if you surrender the entire Liang family."
"Your life, Jin'er's life, including mine."
Wen Chan was shocked, and the whole world began to turn upside down.
Situ Zhoulan shed tears and said bitterly, "We are your relatives, and Jin'er is your own son who is connected with your blood! You are so cruel! We have lived together for so many years, but it is not worth a warm Zen?!"
"When did I admit to the home you fabricated with dirty means?" Liang Yanbei said, "If it weren't for the people I love in the capital, I would have left here long ago and never came back."
"The person you are attached to?" Situ Zhoulan was overjoyed and said excitedly, "Is it Jin'er? You still have some feelings for him, even if you hate me, Jin'er is innocent, he is indeed you Your own flesh and blood, right?"
However, Liang Yanbei said coldly, "The person I am attached to sits in the palace, sitting in a dragon chair above ten thousand people, and there is no one else except him."
Hearing this, Wen Chan was stunned, his mind froze, as if he couldn't think about anything.
It was too straightforward, too obvious.
He seemed to be in a huge deception. What he saw with his eyes and the facts he believed in were all shattered like snow at this moment, completely broken.
In the previous life, Liang Yanbei loved Situ Zhoulan so much that the entire capital was envious of their couple's relationship. Why is the two of them like enemies in this place where no one can see them
And from Liang Yanbei's words, it can be known that when they got married back then, it was because Situ Zhoulan used some means to make Liang Yanbei submit, and he had always been unwilling in his heart.
But what means can force Liang Yanbei? It is no exaggeration to say that Wen Chan believes that no one in this world can make Liang Yanbei compromise, not even his parents.
The quarrel over there was still going on, Situ Zhoulan suddenly went crazy after hearing Liang Yanbei's words, rushed to the bookcase, swept all the books on it to the ground, and piled them up at her feet in disarray, It was a mess in an instant.
She still didn't care about it, crying and tearing off all the books on the bookcase, stretched out her hand and pulled out a hidden compartment.
Seeing this, Liang Yanbei became anxious, and quickly stepped forward to catch her, "Situ Zhoulan, don't touch it!"
But it was still a step too late, she held the small wooden box in the dark compartment in her arms, strode back, and moved her hands extremely quickly, opened the small wooden box, took out something from it, smashed the wooden box on the ground with loud hate cried, "Don't come here! Or I'll break it!"
Liang Yanbei stopped immediately, his face was full of anger at any time, but he really didn't dare to take a step forward, he bit his cheek and said, "Put it down."
Wen Chan still wondered what could threaten Liang Yanbei? Taking a closer look, she found that the things in Situ Zhoulan's hands were not unfamiliar.
It is a flute, the whole body is dark red, both ends are wrapped with gold thread, and there is a bright yellow tassel hanging from the tail, and the tassel was woven by Wen Chan himself.
This is the flute that Liang Yanbei gave Liang Yanbei the night before he got married. He engraved all his thoughts and loves into this flute. There is a word "Zen" at the beginning and a "North" at the end. Character.
What he thought at the time was that even if there was no hope for the two of them in the future, at least on this flute, the two of them could be connected together in some wonderful way.
It's just that after this flute was given to Liang Yanbei, he was never seen to take it out again. Even when Wen Chan was dying, Liang Yanbei played the flute for him once out of mercy, and he used a dark yellow flute. Ordinary flute.
What he really didn't expect was that Liang Yanbei still had this flute!
Situ Zhoulan held the flute in her hand and held it up high, her tears kept streaming, and the hatred on her face gradually turned a little bit bitter, "Liang Heng, look at yourself like this, you don't know how ridiculous it is! You miss him so much, But what about him? Sitting on the dragon chair, enjoying the three thousand beauties in the harem, having a bunch of sons and daughters, you obviously only have this one, but you still want to send him to die! Is your heart made of iron?!"
Liang Yanbei's eyes were fixed on the flute, and bloodshot eyes appeared in his eyes. He took a deep breath to calm down a little, and said in a slow tone, "Put down the flute, and we can talk about it."
"I knew, I knew that when I saw Wen Chan back then, I should have poisoned him to death and completely cut off your thoughts! It would have saved you so much trouble!" Situ Zhoulan cried desperately, her hands firmly The tighter he tightened, the back of Bai Jing's hands showed blue veins, "He was originally a son of a subjugated country, a waste that survived the defeat of the entire royal family. Back then, you betrayed the entire Liang family that gave birth to you and raised you for him, and almost pissed you off. You are sending our only son to the battlefield for him again, do you still have humanity?!"
Wen Chan suddenly felt a pain in his heart, and only felt that the words Situ Zhoulan scolded were harsh and unpleasant.
Liang Yanbei is his darling, anyone who scolds him, despises him, or laughs at him will make Wen Chan unbearable.
Of course, apart from fighting with hands, after all, Wen Chan had never seen anyone who could beat Liang Yanbei.
When Liang Yanbei heard this, his eyes shrank, and all his anger sank, turning into ice balls in the cold winter months, making people shiver uncontrollably, "Situ Zhoulan, if you touch him, you will definitely live!" Not until today, understand?"
Liang Yanbei's words made her shrink back, and her raised hands trembled, only to hear him say again, "You can live to this day not only because you rely on Jin'er, but also because you You have never laid hands on Ah Chan, if not, you would have become a dead soul under my knife, and a piece of loess on this ground."
His tone was very light, completely different from the previous rage, but more frightening.
Wen Chan only felt a warm feeling surge from the bottom of his heart, quickly filling his body, and the smell sweeter than candied fruit flooded his whole body.
Situ Zhoulan stared at Liang Yanbei in disbelief, and for some reason, she picked up the flute and slammed it on the ground.
In that instant, Liang Yanbei rushed forward, so fast that he couldn't see, he clasped Situ Zhoulan's wrist, successfully grabbed the flute, and then slapped her on the face with his backhand.
The crisp sound echoed in the room, and after Situ Zhoulan screamed, she was thrown to the ground by the force. When she raised her head again, bright red blood slowly overflowed from the corner of her mouth.
Liang Yanbei beat Situ Zhoulan?
Wen Chan almost thought that his eyes were broken, could it be that he was wrong? He blinked vigorously, but the scene in front of him remained unchanged, only Liang Yanbei closed his flute and looked down at Situ Zhoulan.
Those eyes were so cold that even Wen Chan felt startled when he saw them.
He said, "From today onwards, stay away from me, otherwise I will not be able to help but kill you at some point."
The last scene in sight was Situ Zhoulan's face of despair, followed by the familiar darkness, and the scene switched again.
