Wei Fu stood there in a daze, as if he was frozen in time.
Until the dying Wei Yuan looked at him and said with a weak breath, "Brother...you...you...don't be sad, I...I..." He suddenly forced a smile, but was unable to retract it, and it froze at the corner of his mouth.
The pupils also froze.
Wei Fu understood what he meant.
He wanted to say that he was free.
The wailing sounds all around turned into physical objects and pressed towards Wei Fu, invading his spleen and ravaging his heart and lungs. He opened his mouth wide, suffocating unbearably.
Wei Fu panted and stumbled towards Wei Yuan. He pushed away Wei Ju who was pretending to be nice, squatted on the ground, and picked up Wei Yuan.
He stroked Wei Yuan's face with his big hand, "Ayuan, I will listen to you. I will not send troops. Wake up... wake up... I will take you to apologize to the emperor. You are right. I will listen to you..."
Tears as big as beans fell on Wei Yuan's face, which was still open. When he touched it, it wet Wei Yuan's face. The grayish-white sheen made him look even more like a dead man.
Wei Fu cried silently, his heart broken.
This is his younger brother...
He was the one who killed his own brother...
Wei Ju, who was standing by, was shocked when he heard Wei Fu's words. He didn't care about pretending anymore and tried to test him, "Ah Fu, A Yuan is gone. The dead are gone, but the living still have to live... You still have to go with this soldier..."
send troops?
Wei Fu suddenly threw his head back and laughed like a madman, his laughter sounded sad and like crying.
It scared everyone around.
Suddenly, the laughter stopped. Wei Fu looked at Wei Ju fiercely, his eyes like a poisonous snake, and gnashed his teeth, "A Yuan is dead, why should I send troops? Who should I send troops for?!"
Wei Ju was furious when he heard this. He had already patiently endured the disrespect from these two unfilial sons that entire night, and had to beg for mercy in order to survive. Now, this little beast Wei Yuan even died to prove his integrity. Do they still regard him as their father?
Wei Ju sneered and said angrily, "Okay! Okay! Since you won't send troops, then give me the half of the military token the emperor gave you, and I'll mobilize the troops!"
Wei Fu certainly ignored such absurd words.
The military seal was not given randomly. If it was given to a general whose soldiers did not obey, the army would be greatly reduced. Moreover, this was a matter of treason. Who would obey unless they were close confidants? Even if they obeyed on the surface, it was not impossible that they would secretly report it.
"Old Joe" witnessed a family ethics drama and felt a little melancholy. He found a reason and escaped.
…
The mountains on both sides of Qianlong Valley are towering, and the cliffs are squeezed into an eight shape. If you are at the bottom of the valley, you can only see some light from the cracks. Therefore, it is dark and quiet under the cliffs. However, it is the only natural barrier leading from Gaizhou to the capital, so people have to take it. Therefore, it is set as an official road and soldiers are guarded all day long.
It is because everyone thinks this road is important, and the bandits think that the court will send heavy troops to guard it, and committing crimes again will not be worth the loss. Therefore, Qianlong Valley, although geographically dangerous, is the safest place on the political road.
For safety reasons, local officials have not paid much attention to this in recent years and no one is guarding it. Now that Queen Hyomin is imprisoned here, I am afraid that local officials will be in big trouble.
There are many caves behind the mountain wall, which are easy to hide people. If you want to go up the mountain, you must go through Qianlong Valley. Qianlong Valley is only a dozen miles away from the post station where Queen Xiaomin disappeared. In other words, after leaving Qianlong Valley, there is another depression, but it is not as narrow and steep as Qianlong Valley.
Tens of thousands of imperial guards rushed to Qianlong Valley without stopping, and finally arrived at dawn. There, Zhao Cong had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing someone coming, Zhao Cong hurried forward and said anxiously, "Father, the Queen Mother..."
Emperor Jianxi sat on his horse, looking at Zhao Cong, feeling a little complicated.
But this was not the time to talk. The most urgent thing was to rescue Hyomin. If it were any other time, in this situation, he would definitely scold Zhao Cong, asking why he was not the one caught, how could he be such a waste that he couldn't even take care of his own mother... But now, he couldn't open his mouth.
Everyone dismounted, and the local garrison took out a topographic map. Emperor Jianxi, Shangguan Shu, the old Duke and others discussed how to attack the mountain and rescue Empress Xiaomin safely.
The old Duke was distracted while attending the meeting. Actually, he didn't want to be distracted. He had not yet recovered from the shock of knowing that Queen Hyomin was not dead.
But fortunately he was just here to make up the numbers, Runzhi had more methods than him.
They were discussing countermeasures in the woodshed of Qianlong Valley.
There is a concave area on the back of one side of Qianlong Valley, hanging halfway up the mountain, making it difficult to be discovered. The land here is flat and wide, just right for building a house.
It was built for more than ten years and no one discovered it.
As for how people go in and out of the mountain, there is a cave on the other side of the groove. If you go around in circles, you can go out through another cave.
Shao Yihui placed all the secret guards he had hired over the years here. This was his old nest.
In the woodshed, Queen Hyomin crawled to the door and looked out through the crack. Seeing no one there, she tried to push it with her shoulder, but failed.
Well, she tried her best, so she can go back and wait for death with peace of mind.
Queen Hyomin went back again and, by the way, looked at the faces of the two people opposite her. She felt that the old woman looked very familiar.
She leaned over to take a look, and the next second, she gasped.
Isn’t this... isn’t this... Pei, Cong’er’s wet nurse?
The regulations for the Queen of Great Chu to give birth were four midwives and six wet nurses.
It stands to reason that a child cannot drink the milk of six people, but why do we have to prepare milk in batches? It can be said that the descendants of the feudal royal family were arrogant and licentious. They would taste everyone's milk, and keep the one they liked. Those who were not chosen would not be driven away. If the wet nurse was sick, there would be a replacement.
Cong'er loves to drink Pei's milk.
She remembered that this Mrs. Pei had given birth to a daughter. When she first heard about it, she felt sorry for the child whose food had been robbed, and rewarded Mrs. Pei with a lot of good things.
Why is she here?
Empress Xiaomin's eyes unconsciously passed over Pei's chest. Well, she's so old, and still so big...
Pei was still unconscious, so she went to look at the man not far away.
You don’t know until you see it, and you’ll be shocked when you see it.
"Oh shit..." Queen Hyomin exclaimed in a low voice.
There is a little man in my heart spinning and jumping with his eyes closed...
Ahhhhhh where did this handsome guy come from!
These eyebrows, this nose, this mouth... Oh shit, how could her mother be so good at giving birth?
Queen Xiaomin clicked her tongue twice and thought of Zhao Cong. Although her Cong'er was also a handsome guy, he was not as stunning as this little guy!
Especially since she hadn't seen a human being for ten years, and she ran into such a top-notch creature as soon as she came out!
The more Queen Hyomin looked, the more shocked she became. She couldn't help but stretch her neck and get closer to take a look. She was old and her eyesight wasn't very good, so she squinted her eyes to see. In short, she wanted to see!
Shao Yihui closed his eyes and pretended to be unconscious. As he was pretending, he felt something approaching him, getting closer and closer... Tsk, he could even feel its breathing.
There were only three of them in the room. Shao Yihui's eyebrows jumped. Could it be Queen Xiaomin?
