"Be good, don't cry, this is all in the past." The past is the past, and the people we should cherish now are the people in the present.
Qin Xuanzhi couldn't stand seeing her tears more and more. Every time he saw her crying, those tears turned into sharp blades and pierced his body.
He couldn't bear to see her cry. She married him at such a young age and should have been well taken care of, but she always cried because of him.
"Qin Xuanzhi." She raised her face and forced an ugly smile: "If, if one day, I am no longer by your side, you have to live well, okay?"
"That day will never come." If you die and leave me alone in this world, what's the point?
Qin Xuanzhi hugged her tightly. His body was covered with wind and snow. His body, which should have been cold, now seemed so hot.
It was so hot that she was shaking.
Her tears fell on his collar, and she said silently in her heart: "I'm sorry, but I have to do this."
"Xuanzhi, you're holding me too tight. Let's go and pay our respects to my parents. They haven't seen me yet."
".........good."
Tang Wan stepped on the evidence in the snow, looking at him with more and more guilt, but she knew that if she didn't force him.
Qin Xuan knew this kind of personality and knew that he would never have the idea of rebelling in his life.
Tang Wan was pregnant and it was freezing cold, so kneeling was not good for her health, so only Qin Xuanzhi kowtowed a few times.
"Dad, Mom, I've found someone. I've found the person who will be with me for the rest of my life. You can rest in peace down there."
"Mother, I haven't let you down. I'm just a little tired. I want to rest, but I know I can't. This country needs me, and so do the people of this country."
He lowered his head, with a hint of fatigue in his eyes.
Tang Wan took his hand and said, "Dad, Mom, my name is Tang Wan, and I'm Xuan Zhi's wife. You can also call me Wan Wan. Don't worry, I will definitely supervise Xuan Zhi and make sure he eats well and sleeps well."
"My daughter-in-law will definitely take good care of him."
Qin Xuanzhi smiled, making his face look a lot softer. Just when he was about to say something, he heard Tang Wan exclaim.
"Xuanzhi, has anyone been here before?"
Qin Xuanzhi frowned slightly: "Impossible, apart from the Qin family and His Majesty, no one else here knows about this."
"But, there seems to be something there."
Qin Xuanzhi looked in the direction of her finger. Those places were bare and not covered by snow, revealing a piece of scorched yellow land.
A piece of cloth and a fragment of something unknown lay quietly on it.
He stood up and went to check, picking up the cloth.
After seeing the material and the embroidery on it, his pupils dilated instantly and trembled uncontrollably.
There is a Chinese character "Yan" embroidered on it with silk thread, which is the name of the current emperor.
He will never admit his mistake.
There are large dark areas on the cloth, and the cloth itself is blue. I don't know if it's blood or something else.
And that fragment was a fragment of the blade.
It was his father's sword! He wouldn't mistake it. His father's sword was forged by the best blacksmith in the capital. Anyone familiar with it would be able to tell the difference at a glance.
And this piece of cloth and this style have never been worn by Your Majesty since he ascended the throne.
He was stunned for a moment and just tightened his grip on the fabric.
Logically speaking, when his parents passed away, His Majesty should have been in the Jiangnan area. How could he have left clothes in the Qin family's cemetery?
Tang Wan looked at him, pursed her lips and said nothing.
She knew that sometimes, once the seeds of doubt were planted, things would never be the same again.
Qin Xuanzhi is indeed loyal, but he is not a fool.
Moreover, although he was not close to his parents, he was still grateful to them for giving birth to him. If he were to be loyal to the enemy who killed his father and mother, he would definitely not be loyal to Emperor Wen Qing.
She anxiously held onto his arm and said, "Husband, what is this?"
Qin Xuanzhi looked at her panicked face. Although his heart was still in a mess, he still tried to comfort her: "It's nothing, just some ordinary clothes. Maybe the cleaner forgot to pick them up."
"Don't worry." He looked into her eyes, still not wanting to involve her.
He put the evidence in his arms with a grim look in his eyes.
Perhaps, Emperor Wen Qing is just so cruel and not as virtuous as he appears.
............
On the way back, the two remained silent.
Qin Xuanzhi closed his eyes and rested, his lips were pale, his brows were furrowed, and coupled with his thin figure, he looked even more like a sickly immortal.
He began to recall the past.
My parents have always been in good health. How could they die just from being hit by an enemy arrow?
He also had someone check and found that there was no poison on the arrow and it did not injure any internal organs, but only hit the shoulder.
But why, why did he lose his life just like that?
In the past, his parents always taught him that they should be loyal to the country and the emperor.
Therefore, he never believed that the person his parents were loyal to would actually put them to death.
But now he had no choice but to believe it.
Although the clothes in hand alone cannot prove anything, we can still find out something.
He knew that although the emperor was suspicious of him, he also paradoxically believed that he was a loyal minister.
After all, he had never disobeyed the emperor in all these years. He was like a sharp sword, and he would strike wherever the emperor pointed and never disobey.
His temples were throbbing so violently that even his eyes hurt.
At night, for the first time ever, he did not sleep with Tang Wan, but slept alone.
He lay on the large bed. The room was dark and not a single candle was lit.
The moonlight shone into the room and onto his face, making him look as pale as paper.
His eyes were red, but he didn't shed tears. His lower lip was bitten and bleeding, which combined with his pale face gave him a strange beauty.
"Xuan Yi, go and investigate with this general to find out the truth of what happened back then."
If it was really the emperor who killed his parents, then hasn't he been working for his enemy who destroyed his entire family all these years?
He had a splitting headache and his jet-black hair was hanging behind his ears.
He covered his eyes in pain, his heart twitching uncontrollably.
It felt like someone stabbed me with a sword and then spun me around several times.
Veins popped out on the back of his pale hands. He gripped the edge of the bed tightly, and blood soon seeped out of his fingertips.
"General, are you okay?" Xuan Yi looked a little worried.
Qin Xuanzhi waved his hand and handed the thing in his hand to Xuanyi: "Take this and check it out."
Xuan Yi took the piece of cloth and the fragment, a flash of shock in his eyes, and then he quickly clasped his fists and said, "Yes, I will definitely fulfill your mission!"
