Twilight Cloud Returns

Late at night, Yushifu.

Chu Mohen was served by his servant and took off his official uniform. Just as he was about to take a rest, the servant in the mansion hurriedly knocked on the door: "My lord, there is a visitor from the capital."

He backed the servant girl, thought for a moment and then said in normal clothes: "Please come in."

The servant led him in, only to see the man bowed his head, wrapped in a black cloak, and couldn't tell what he looked like.

The candles in the wing room danced restlessly, reflecting his thin figure on the bricks and tiles, desolate and lonely.

Following the sound of the door being closed, the man suddenly knelt on the ground and begged sadly: "My lord, I beg you to save my brother..."

He dropped his cloak, and Chu Mohen finally saw his face—it was Wei Zhongan.

Wei Zhongan followed Liang Deying and served the emperor. Before the imperial decree arrived in Yangzhou, he had already found out that the Holy Master had implicated the Xue family. He traveled through wind and rain all the way, and traveled thousands of miles to Yangzhou.

At this moment, he is like an ant that everyone can trample on, humbly begging his only master who can speak.

Even if the hope is slim, he will try his best to try.

"My lord, I beg you to say a few kind words in the holy sage to save this slave's elder brother... This slave will be like an ox and a horse in this life, and I will repay the prince's great favor!"

Wei Zhongan knocked his head heavily on the hard stone slab, even when he saw blood, he didn't stop.

This is the only thing he can do for his brother as a slave, and he will never give up this opportunity!

Seeing his brotherly love, Chu Mohen was moved in his heart, but he was powerless, so he had to help him up himself, looked at the heartbroken Wei Zhongan, and sighed: "The imperial decree has been issued, not to mention this king, even if it is the Holy One. The Empress Dowager, the biological mother, can't change it..."

"But my brother killed the enemy on the battlefield, and he made great military exploits. Use the merit to cover his status as the son-in-law of the Xue family. From now on, he will be a commoner and never be an official?" Wei Zhongan cried and complained, "I only want my brother to be mediocre. Live peacefully in this world..."

Chu Mohen shook his head again and again and said, "Wei Zhongan, you are so confused... Do you really think that Wei Guoan was only convicted for being the son-in-law of the criminal Xue Liandao?"

Hearing this, Wei Zhongan froze in place, he didn't understand Prince Mo's words.

Chu Mohen sat back on the grand teacher's chair, supported his forehead and said sadly: "In the pre-Qin period, there was a general named Bai Qi who killed 45 main forces of the Zhao Kingdom in Changping Pit, successively conquered more than [-] cities for Qin, and ruled for Qin to sweep the six kingdoms." The world has laid the foundation of immortality, but in the end it ended up with the end of giving the sword and committing suicide..."

He turned his head to look at Wei Zhongan, who was sitting slumped on the ground, stupefied, "I think Wei Guoan's contribution is more outstanding?"

Chu Mohen's words fluttered in the bleak autumn wind, showing the coldness and ruthlessness of Tianjia even more.

In the room between the two, the tranquility gradually faded away...

After a long time, Wei Zhongan sneered and said, "When the cunning rabbit dies, the lackey cooks it; when the birds are gone, the good bow is hidden..."

He wiped away the tears on his face, knelt up straight, kowtowed with full hatred in his indifferent voice: "Slave Wei Zhongan, thank you for your teaching!"

He prostrated himself on the ground, and finally begged: "My lord...can you arrange for the servants to enter the prison to see my brother for the last time..."

Chu Mohen agreed: "This king will arrange for you. During this period of time, you will stay in Yushi's mansion, and you must not show your face in public. As a harem servant who leaves the palace without authorization, you will be killed immediately according to the law. But this king misses your love." Sincerely, I will take care of everything in the palace for you, and return to Beijing immediately after seeing him off for the last time, and don’t stay in Yangzhou for long.”

Wei Zhong'an expressed his gratitude and said: "This slave is determined to serve the prince as a dog and horse in this life, and he will die."

In the courtyard, Yun Ying knelt in front of Yun Chuxiu, and pleaded guilty: "My subordinates are not doing their job well, and failed to send Mrs. Wei to the Yun Clan. Please be punished by the young master."

Yun Chuxiu sat at the table and did not respond for a while.

After Yunying found out that Xue Wanjun had escaped, she turned back along the official road and chased after him. In less than half a cup of tea time, she found Xue Wanjun who was running out of breath.

She immediately knelt in front of Yunying, grabbed his sleeve, and cried in grief: "Brother, please, take me back to Yangzhou to see my husband for the last time, and let him see the child for the last time... The fate between me and him is the only one." Just started, we still have a lot of unfinished business, he hasn't named the unborn child, he hasn't heard the child say "Daddy"... Please... I can't live without him... I really can't live without him he..."

She begged in a low voice, people are not grass, how can they be ruthless?Seeing this, Yunying couldn't help but wet his clothes with tears.

He helped Xue Wanjun up, choked with sobs and said, "Madam, this subordinate will take you back to Yangzhou."

Xue Wanjun is currently in the side room, unable to withstand the sudden blow, she has exhausted her strength to hold on for a day, and fainted as soon as she entered the hospital.Due to her current status, Gu Xiaorui had no choice but to bite the bullet and invite Yun Zheng to come.

Yunying accepted the crime neither humble nor overbearing. This was the first time he had violated the wishes of the young master, but he did not regret it either.

Yun Chuxiu looked up to the sky and sighed, and said dejectedly: "Get up, why are you guilty..."

Wuqing was helping Mrs. Wei cook porridge in the small kitchen, hearing what happened today, her eyes were also rosy.

Even the fat ones drooped their heads.The whole house was silent, no one spoke.It wasn't until Yun Zheng ran over in a panic that the eerie silence was broken.

He didn't even fasten his clothes, he didn't even wear one shoe in his panic, so he ran here in such a slovenly manner, "What happened to my adopted son?"

Undoubtedly, looking at Yunzheng's appearance must have failed Yingying's good deeds.

But at this moment, Yun Zheng's heart is full of the righteous son he rescued with his own hands, who is about to be executed with his mother!

Gu Xiaorui led the way, "Sir, madam is in the side room."

He took Xue Wanjun's pulse, and finally heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the pulse was calm, and said to Gu Xiaorui: "Madam Wei is too sad, I will create a prescription for regulating qi and blood in a while, you can cook it and let her take it."

Gu Xiaorui wrote down one by one, these medicines happened to be available in the small kitchen, and he hurried to make medicine for Xue Wanjun.

After seeing Xue Wanjun, Yun Zheng angrily rushed to the wing room where Yun Chuxiu was, shook his shoulder and shouted: "No matter what method you use, my son, my adopted son will definitely not die! I will definitely see him Come to the world safely! Otherwise, I, Yunzheng, please remove my name from the Yun clan and never enter the genealogy!"

Yun Chuxiu's eyes were blank at the moment, unable to see any joy, anger, sorrow or joy, and said indifferently: "Then you go..."

Yun Zheng was so angry that he immediately raised his palm, and saw that a slap was about to fall on Yun Chuxiu's face.

Wuqing, who was carrying the porridge and was about to send it to Xue Wanjun, passed by the wing room, saw this scene, rushed in immediately, stood in front of Zhihuan, and scolded: "Sir, what are you doing! The imperial decree issued by the emperor!" , so what can he do if he knows it!"

Yun Zheng didn't want to hit him at first, but he was full of anger and couldn't vent.

He put this slap on his face, pushed Wuqing away, forced Yun Chuxiu to look at him, and said viciously: "Aren't you the little prince who can't even control the emperor in Dazhou! Didn't you once become famous in the battlefield The Great General Zhenyuan! Aren’t you the young master that the entire Yun Clan pins their hopes on! Why can’t you do it! Can’t do it!”

At this moment, Yun Zheng was roaring like a crazy beast, the sound startled everyone in the house, and it was Yun Ying who carried him back before it stopped.

Yun Chuxiu just sat on the grand master's chair dumbly like this. Since he returned to the courtyard after learning the emperor's imperial decree today, it has been a day without a drop of water.

Wuqing has never seen Zhihuan with such a decadent side. He still remembers that even when wolves, tigers and leopards were all around him, Zhihuan could joke around arrogantly and make him laugh.

But now it was just an imperial decree, but it drove him into the endless hell.

Wuqing hugged him and sobbed: "Zhihuan, don't scare me, okay... You have tried your best, you really tried your best, don't humiliate yourself anymore..."

The word "do your best" touched his heart, Yun Chuxiu seemed to be a child who had been wronged at this moment, curled up in Wuqing's arms, and sobbed: "Yun Zheng is right, I really can't do anything ... The emperor is dead, and I have not been able to find the murderer; my mother is dead, but I still have to show joy to the old woman who forced her to death every day; everyone in the Yun family wants to escape the fate of being enslaved by the royal family, but I am still making them live in fear... Even Wei Guoan, whom I pulled up with one hand, can't protect... I can't do it, I really can't do anything..."

It was only at this time that Wuqing realized how much the incomparable man in his arms had endured.

There seems to be an endless night on the shoulders, weighing more than a thousand loads, covering it, making people unable to turn over forever.

He pecked Zhihuan's lips lightly like a bird, and comforted softly: "You are a human being, not a god, and you have never possessed the secret technique of longevity... To me, you defeated the Huns and broke Yangzhou It is my god, my god, to give justice to the innocent people in the Tieshi case..."

Wuqing fell into Yun Chuxiu's ears like the sound of a trickling stream washing over pebbles, and he embraced Wuqing in his arms, smelling the scent of sandalwood on his body before he felt at ease, and after a long time he said hoarsely: "Ah Qing, even if I can't do anything in this world, and I will definitely be able to protect you, and protect you for the rest of your life..."

When Zhi was still asleep, the sky was already bright.

Wuqing leaned on the head of the bed, caressing Zhi Huanlian's frowning face in sleep with her slender hands, thinking of the sourness and joy along the way, she couldn't help but sigh—a fate that can't be changed is the most helpless.

I hope that he and Zhihuan will not come to the situation where the Wei family and his wife are about to be separated forever.

The next day, the sky was high and the air was crisp, which was a good day for an autumn outing.

Xue Wanjun took the medicine prescribed by Yun Zheng and fell into a deep sleep until noon.

Yun Chuxiu was lying on the rocking chair under the sycamore tree with clean leaves, and she didn't know whether she was enjoying the coolness or facing the scorching sun.

He heard Xue Wanjun's footsteps and knew why she came here.

Before she could speak, Yun Chuxiu said in a low voice: "Three days later, the Xue family will be beheaded at the gate of the city. I have already arranged everything in the prison. Tonight, you can go see him for the last time..."

He felt that he owed Wei Guoan a lot, and his self-proclaimed Xue Wanjun also omitted the old "father".

Xue Wanjun felt the young master's affection, she didn't blame him, she only blamed the impermanence of the world, which made her and her husband want to give up this relationship after ten months of love.She bowed profusely, "Thank you, little lord."

Xue Wanjun turned to leave, but the dagger that Gu Xiaorui stole from Gu Xiaorui when he brought her food was accidentally exposed in his sleeve...
