cold branch low

After living for nearly 18 years, except for the seven-year-old who had no memory and the ten-year-old who lived alone in Qihuang Mountain, Wen Renhuang spent almost all of his time with Fengtian's company.

Fengtian's care and love has been carried out for almost half of his life like a father and brother, teaching him to read and write, teaching him martial arts to defend himself, and he is not harsh on food and clothing.

This is the kind of person who seems to have changed after he went down the mountain.

He walked silently in front of Feng Tian who was squatting on the ground, and squatted down together with him.Feng Tian took off his mask and looked at him silently.

The two of them just didn't speak to each other, in the end it was Fengtian who smiled first, but he touched his wound when he smiled, and coughed a few more times.

Wen Renhuang frowned, and patted his back lightly: "Just now Huo Xiao didn't hit hard, were you injured before?"

Feng Tian twitched the corners of his lips, and said in a low voice: "When I attacked him in the palace, I beat him seriously, and I also hit him with a palm."

So it is a disguised admission that you went to attack people, Wen Renhuang said thank you for telling me the truth.

"Why did you sneak up on him, isn't he a prince?" He lowered his head and asked.

Feng Tian smiled lightly, with a trace of blood on the corner of his lips, he looked extremely haggard: "Qihuang Mountain is not only for the court, there are many things you don't understand."

He nodded.

Feng Tian said he didn't understand, so he didn't ask.

"Then I let Prince Duan go now, will you blame me?" He asked uncertainly, just now he was so high-spirited that he ignored Fengtian's opinion, now he is a little scared.

Fengtian coughed a few more times, stood up reluctantly, and said wearily: "It's okay, you go and tell Wu Ya to withdraw the troops and return to the residence."

He let out a soft sound, got up and was about to walk out when Feng Tian hit his acupuncture points like lightning, and he fell down.

Feng Tian gently picked him up and sighed.

Before he was seven years old, he should have lived a good life, because when he opened his eyes and became conscious, he saw that although the clothes on his body were stained with blood, the fabric was soft and the embroidery was exquisite.

He also thought about why he was in Qihuang Mountain, but he couldn't remember clearly. There must be something wrong with his brain. Since the age of [-], there are no parents and brothers, only the members of Qihuang Mountain and Fengtian.

Fortunately, Fengtian treated him very well, filling the most important vacancy in his life, making him feel very happy and satisfied with everything, so as long as Fengtian asked him to do it, he would do it without hesitation. Do.

However, this time, he seemed to disobey Fengtian, he ruined Fengtian's important affairs.

Not only did Fengtian lead elite soldiers to besiege Ningshuang Building that night, he also arranged three thousand archers outside the alley, determined to destroy King Duan, but he let him go without saying anything, and even gave Fengtian a dagger The scabbards were given to them.Because the dagger and the scabbard were extremely rare, everyone in Qihuang Mountain knew that it was a gift from Fengtian to Wen Renhuang. If they saw that Qu Ning and his party had the scabbard, they would definitely let them go.

He changed the direction and lay on his side and buried his head in the quilt, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart.

Why did I go against Feng Tian.

Why did I save Huo Xiao?

There were footsteps outside the door, it was food delivery for him, he found himself here after waking up, his inner strength was not sealed, his hands and feet were not interrupted, everything was fine, but the boy who delivered the food But she told him that Feng Tian asked him to think about it here, and not to go out after thinking about it.

So he stayed in the room for several days without going out, not knowing how pale his face was, he didn't figure it out.

"My lord, it's time to eat." The chubby boy was in charge of delivering meals to Wen Renhuang on weekdays, and Wen Renhuang didn't talk to him very much. Ren Huang talked a lot.

"My lord, it's been so many days, why don't you go out, I think Feng Wang must miss you." He put down the food and started talking to himself again.

"I, as long as I make a mistake, I will act like a baby with my teacher. My son, why don't you act like a baby with Feng Wang," he said, "I think Feng Wang seems to love you very much. I heard from my teacher that you made a mistake. Big mistake, Feng Wang didn't punish you."

Wen Renhuang was lying on the bed hugging the quilt, not bothering to raise his eyelids, and asked sickly, "Who is your teacher?"

Seeing that he finally spoke, Xiaotong immediately replied happily: "My teacher is Mr. Peacock. He seems to be a little older than you. He looks very good-looking. If I make him angry, I will always act like a baby. He is soft-hearted."

He has a flat mouth, peacock, he is indeed a bean curd with a sharp mouth.

The little boy continued: "I think Feng Wang looks so good-looking, if you act like a baby, maybe it will be fine, what do you mean come out after you have figured it out, if it was me, I would have figured it out a long time ago."

He smiled wryly, if he should have thought the same way when he was a child, not to mention when he was a child, even if Feng Tian was angry before going down the mountain, no matter what happened, he would act coquettishly and admit his mistake.But this time is not the other time, he thought, if Fengtian failed to kill Huo Xiao that night, with Huo Xiao's character of retribution for every flaw, the road after Qihuang Mountain might be even more difficult.

From the moment the crow set fire to Prince Duan's mansion and Feng Tian attacked Huo Xiao in surprise, Qihuang Mountain had no way out.

"What are Fengwang and Prime Minister Wu doing recently?" I was worried, but I could only ask others in this corner of the room softly.

The little boy scratched his head: "Prime Minister Wu is naturally up and down every day. King Feng seldom comes to Beijing. The teacher is playing around with him these few days."

Is that safe and sound? !

He jumped up from the bed and asked excitedly, "Then do you know what's going on in Beijing these days?"

"Yes, yes!" Xiao Tong tilted his head and said, "I heard that King Duan is back, and Prime Minister Wu was rewarded by the emperor for his meritorious service in saving Jia!"

Huo Xiao didn't fight back.

He put his mind to rest for a while, but immediately brought it up again.

After getting along with Huo Xiao for a few days, he has a bad temper and a deep city, and he almost died at the hands of Feng Tian. He will not let such a big matter go lightly.

"Then Feng Wang... apart from telling me to figure it out before going out, did you say anything else?" He was a little worried.

The little boy's pink and round face was wrinkled into a ball: "Why are there so many things, go out if you figure it out, hurry up, I'm exhausted from delivering meals to you every day, the prime minister's mansion is so big, I have to go for a long time Far."

He couldn't help laughing, looking at this chubby child, he couldn't help but think of himself a few years ago.

He squatted down and patted the child's cheek, and said, "Brother, I'm going out to do some errands, so you don't have to wait for me to come back for dinner tonight."

The child rolled his eyes: "Who wants to wait for you to eat, I can eat with the teacher if you are not here."

Really merciless.

Since King Duan was rescued, all the ministers of the court have lamented God's blessings, and even the emperor expressed full concern for Huo Xiao in the early court.

For several days in a row, Huo Xiao was blocked by the ministers and could not go home for a long time. They held Huo Xiao's hand, shrugged their old faces, and cherished the heaven and earth that this great pillar of enlightenment could return to the court intact this time. .

Huo Xiao looked haggard, and said movedly: "The escape from death this time is due to the blessing of Emperor Daqi and the sincerity of all the adults." He glanced at the crow passing by, with a little deep meaning, "It was Prime Minister Wu who worked tirelessly to lead the troops to rescue him in time, otherwise, this king may have lost his life at the hands of those thieves."

The crow paused, then turned to face Huo Xiao: "My lord, even if there are no ministers to lead the troops here, since the lord is a master of planning, he can summon the elites of the Huben camp early, and he can escape unscathed."

Huo Xiao's face was as calm as water: "After all, the Huben camp is not good at rescue. If Prime Minister Wu's elite soldiers did not break through Hei Luan's stronghold in one fell swoop, this king might not even be able to wait for the Huben camp to arrive."

The crow's eyes flashed a cold light, and he said with a faint smile: "My lord, thank you."

The two of you said something to each other, and the atmosphere seemed harmonious.

"His Royal Highness Duan Wang." A palace official standing beside him bowed and called.

Huo Xiao glanced at the man, and said with a slight smile, "Eunuch Zhang, what's the matter?"

That palace man was none other than Zhang Zhong, a celebrity next to the emperor, who was in charge of internal affairs, even Huo Xiao, whose eyes were higher than his head, had to put on a smile when he saw him.

When the ministers around saw Eunuch Zhang coming here, they almost knew in their hearts that the emperor was about to summon King Duan. They all waved their hands to greet Eunuch Zhang, and found excuses to disperse, but the crow was still watching Eunuch Zhang with a smile.

Eunuch Zhang is also an old fritter who has been playing in the officialdom for many years. This time he smiled at the crow and said: "It turns out that the prime minister is also here, what a coincidence."

The crow said: "The truth is talking to the prince about the Ningshuang Building that day."

Zhang Zhong said with a smile: "Our family has already heard about Prime Minister Wu's battle against Ningshuang Building. After killing a sub-helm of the gangster, Qihuang Mountain has a large number of talents, and the prime minister is quite the first."

"Don't dare," Crow clasped his hands, "It's just that the emperor Long En deterred the thieves, so that Zhenxiang could smash the thieves' den in one fell swoop, cooperate with the prince inside and outside, and catch them by surprise."

Zhang Zhong covered his mouth and laughed: "Oh, the prime minister is really humble. When our family and the emperor talked about this matter, the emperor appreciated the prime minister's action very much. If he praises the prime minister in the future, I hope the prime minister will not forget our family."

The crow lowered his eyes and smiled, "My father-in-law won the award, I will remember my father-in-law's pity for me."

Zhang Zhong swept away the floating dust, nodded and said: "Then our family will leave first, Prime Minister, take care," just after he finished speaking, he suddenly hit his head with a smile, "Look at this memory, the emperor asked our family to call the prince to go and talk. As a result, our family and the prime minister forgot about it while talking about it."

Huo Xiao's face remained unchanged: "Eunuch Zhang is busy with his work, so there are always negligence."

Zhang Zhong shrugged Fuchen embarrassedly and said, "Don't be surprised, my lord, go with our house to see the emperor, he's been talking about you these days."

Crow lightly smiled and said: "I respectfully send off the prince and Eunuch Zhang."

Huo Xiao smiled softly, turned and left, leaving Crow with his eyes narrowed and clenched fists tightly.

Emperor Longbao was almost in his sixties, his temples were gray, his eyes were sharp but they couldn't stop the cloudiness that was getting cloudy, and the lines around his eyes were getting deeper day by day, but he could still see his handsome and unrestrained face when he was young.He sat in the garden and gently breathed the fresh air after the rain, while the maid behind him carefully shielded him from the sun and fanned the wind to enjoy the coolness.

Huo Xiao stepped forward, knelt down and bowed his head, and said, "Mr. Huo Xiao, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

As if he had never heard of it, Emperor Longbao looked at the distant sky, but muttered in his mouth: "Shouliu Hanchan is full of sorrow, who will teach Baiyi to deliver wine..."

"It's not yet autumn, and the cicadas are still singing, why is Your Majesty so sad?" He didn't look up, but still knelt in front of the pavilion.

Emperor Longbao smiled: "Sooner or later it will be autumn, willows will decline and cicadas will die, how can we not worry?"

Could it be that the emperor is in a bad mood again and wants to come here to express his depression?

He thought about it: "Autumn goes to winter and another year comes, spring willows sprout and new cicadas are born again. Wouldn't it be another happy scene then?"

Emperor Longbao shook his head: "The scenery remains the same, but the old man will not return."

Huo Xiao's eyes moved slightly. He vaguely remembered that in the early years when Chongyang was approaching, the emperor would go out of the palace with his father in low clothes, climb high and look far away. They were still young at that time, and sometimes they would bring the princes and his elder brother with them .

"Willows and cicadas are full of worries, who will teach white clothes to deliver wine? The ancients were worried, and I was also worried. Once Zhizhong left, no one would climb up to drink with me..." After saying this, Emperor Longbao sighed softly Tone, "Get up, give me a seat."

He sat down in silence, looking at Emperor Longbao's no longer young face, his heart was also aroused with sentimentality.

"When my father went to Chongyang, he would take off the armor he usually wears, and occasionally he would take his elder brother out. At that time, I envied my elder brother very much. He could always play around with my father."

Listening to what he said, Emperor Longbao seemed to have a smile on his lips.

"Elder brother will tell my minister what they have seen and heard when he comes back. At that time, the minister was still young, and besides envy, he would also have a little bit of jealousy in his heart," he said, shaking his head with some guilt. At the age of [-], he can often go out with his father, but the minister can only be forced to read books at home, and over time, he even developed a rebellious heart and contradicted him."

Emperor Longbao smiled and shook his head: "The heart of a child can be called treason."

"The older I am, the more sensible I will be, and I will stop contradicting, but I still have dissatisfaction in my heart until after His Majesty bestows the marriage." He paused, "Princess Mingli is virtuous and generous, and she is a beloved person. She is more reasonable than the minister's father. She told the minister that filial piety should be the first for a son, respect for an elder brother for a younger brother, and loyalty to a king for a minister."

This Princess Li is the third daughter of Emperor Longbao, Qu Mingli, who was married to Huo Xiao's elder brother Huo Chen back then.

Emperor Longbao recalled his daughter, and immediately sighed: "Mingli is a good child, and so is your brother Huo Chen. Back then, I saw their talents and appearance, so I planned a marriage with Zhizhong. These two children are truly a match made in heaven."

"Yes, my father has been guarding the border of Daqi all the year round, and my elder brother is busy with affairs in the court. I am young and ignorant, and Princess Mingli handles all the trivial matters at home. If the princess hadn't taught me when I rebelled, I wouldn't have achieved what I am today. His voice was low, recalling that when he was young, his heart seemed to be covered with a layer of cotton wool, which was soft but unreal to the touch.

Sadness appeared in Emperor Longbao's eyes, he shook his head and sighed: "I feel that God is unfair."

He looked up at the emperor: "Your Majesty, why are you complaining?"

"I have been conscientiously defending Daqi for decades. I have never neglected the people, never treated my neighbors harshly, but God has taken away my relatives and old friends one by one, and finally I am the only one left!" Emperor Longbao said. Moaning in mourning, with sorrow on his face.

Zhang Zhong beside him immediately stepped forward, muttering in a low voice: "Your Majesty, don't be too sad, you may hurt your body."

He was silent for a while: "I made His Majesty worry, I'm guilty."

Emperor Longbao was lightly patted on the back by Zhang Zhong, and said with a wry smile: "Huo Xiao, I also watched you grow up, you bear a family feud, it's no easier than me, your father and brother, the tragic death of my beloved daughter is so tragic. These years have never left my mind, sitting on the world but not being able to protect the people around me an inch of peace, I know it, and you know it too. One day you will be crowned king and your military power taken away, do you hate me?"

He got up and knelt down, word by word: "I dare not, and I have never hated Your Majesty." A gleam of light flashed in his eyes, "I know that power is a hot potato, and your Majesty's withdrawal of the soldiers that my father supported back then was definitely not for defense. Minister, it is for the sake of the minister."

Emperor Longbao looked at him with satisfaction: "It's fine if you don't hate me, I'm afraid that you will be young and vigorous, and if you gain military power and make a big show of power, you will bring yourself a disaster of murder, so I allow you to be a king with a different surname and accept your military power. "

He clenched his hands tightly, looking at Emperor Longbao with a somewhat unsteady breath.

"You have lived up to my expectations, you have lived up to your knowledge, and you have taken back a lot by yourself in just a few years." Emperor Longbao's gratified eyes gradually showed determination, "You have grown up, it is time Just like your father, you have shared the burden on my shoulders."

He listened to the emperor speak slowly, and at that moment it seemed that the whole world was quiet.

A huge rock that he had expected was thrown down from his peaceful heart, and gradually, a huge tsunami was set off.

This moment, waited too long.

Long Xiao and Tiger Ben are far from enough.

His father is Huo Zhizhong, the great god of war, who once killed the leader of the enemy army in the enemy camp with his own strength.

His elder brother is a model of civil servants of the Great Qi Dynasty, the enviable son-in-law, who used literature to fight against talented scholars from neighboring countries, destroying plots in a flash while talking and laughing.

And he, he is by no means a king of a different surname who is content with pleasure and accomplishes nothing. He is the second son of the Huo family, the only remaining blood of the Huo family, and bears the blood feud of his father, brother, sister-in-law and his family.

He asked for orders to go out many times, but he regained his military power bit by bit, and the blood bathing in his body was not enough to calm down the hatred that was clamoring in his body.What he wants is everything, the army commanded by his father roaring back then, the unwavering loyalty, and the head of his enemy who will be sacrificed in front of his father and brother's graves in the end.

He bit his lip, eyes reddish.

"Sir, you will not disgrace your mission!"
