Chapter 51

The old man knew that it would be useless to say more, so he sighed for a long time.

"You want to go to the capital to sit on the throne, this is a serious crime of beheading! Ziyan, you must never do this again, you forgot..."

"There are thousands of things in the world, and there is nothing that I, Hu Ziyan, cannot do."

As he spoke, he pointed angrily at his nephew sitting on the threshold, and said mockingly, "Look at your own son, he's so dead, so stupid, who caused all this?"

"And the death of our parents, brother, you forgot, but I haven't forgotten, everything is in my mind, clearly! I must avenge this revenge."

"Throne, I want to sit too!"

His attitude was very resolute, his eyes were full of desire for the throne, as if he was insane.

It's useless to talk too much, so the old man issued an order to drive away the guests.

"Ziyan, let's go, in the future, don't bother me again."

"Big brother!"

"Let's go."

Hu Ziyan looked at the old man angrily, then snorted angrily, turned around and walked away.

a long time.

The old man regained his strength and stood up while leaning on the fence, but unexpectedly his feet slipped again and he staggered to one side.

"Old man, be careful."

A figure suddenly appeared, and the old man was supported to stabilize his body.

Seeing this person, he was inevitably taken aback.

"Young master?"

"Ah."

Xiao Yu helped him to rest under the eaves, and in a blink of an eye, he saw the man sitting at the door staring blankly at her.

The eyes are stupid and ignorant.

I thought he couldn't understand the words, but he didn't want the old man to call him to bring the water, so he brought the water swiftly.

The old man said: "The humble house is simple, young master, don't dislike it."

"will not."

Xiao Yu thanked him, bowed his head and drank the water in the cup, it was cool and sweet, probably water from a mountain spring.

"Young master, did you hear my conversation with Ziyan?"

She nodded and said yes.

Seeing that she was not in a panic, the old man persuaded: "Since we have heard everything, it is better to leave Jinzhou as soon as possible."

"I can't go."

"what?"

The old man frowned, he knew that the sword in her hand was not extraordinary, therefore, her kung fu must be good, so why is it so difficult to force her to leave?

Besides, she had a chance to escape that day when she opened Lou Yuan.

But she chose to go back to the city to report the crime, and then entered the city together with Lou Yuan, which made him puzzled.

Xiao Yu explained: "No matter how far I go, Mr. Hu will not let me go. I will be taken back by him sooner or later. Fortunately, I am right under his nose."

"You are not afraid of death?"

"afraid."

Xiao Yu smiled: "Of course I'm afraid."

"You heard it just now, my whole family is dead, and I am the only one living in this world, how can I not be afraid?"

"I heard that General Dong is extremely brave, defending his family and defending the country, and has repeatedly made military exploits. The people in Jinzhou City all respect General Dong very much."

"No matter how heroic my father is, it's all a thing of the past."

"Yes."

The old man was silent for a while, then sighed: "They are all poor people. Before Ziyan, he was not such a person... He will become what he is now, because he was forced."

40 years ago.

The previous dynasty collapsed, a new dynasty was established, and the world was unstable, so the emperor issued an order to kill the remnants of the previous dynasty. Those who reported and killed all had merit.

Hu Xianru was the teacher of Qingshan Academy at the time, and had some conflicts with another teacher. The other master held a grudge. Taking advantage of the emperor's inspection in Jinzhou, he went to the emperor to falsely accuse Hu Xianru of secretly colluding with the remnants of the previous dynasty in order to rebel.

Hu Xianru's wife took her two sons to intercede, but what she saw was Hu Xianru's body.

The emperor was in the tent, only one eunuch was missing, and the eunuch looked down on the three mother and child arrogantly, and raised his squealing voice.

"Hu Xianru is disloyal and deserves to be killed!"

"You are members of his family, so you must know the inside story, come here, arrest me, and interrogate severely!"

That day, the two brothers saw their mother being whipped to death, and when the two children were dying, Prince Jinchang came back from hunting. Seeing the two, he felt compassion, and immediately begged his father to let them go.

At that time, the Hu brothers were only ten-year-old children.

The Prince of Jinchang, Kuan Ren, changed the names of the two brothers and accepted them as Shutong, and asked the Prince Taifu to teach them their homework. The Taifu saw that Hu Ziyan was very smart, so he accepted him as a foster son.

Hu Ziyan is talented and studious, therefore, at the age of 16, he obtained a degree of fame, and his future is boundless.

But the good times don't last long...

Speaking of this, the old man stopped suddenly, his eyes full of helplessness and sorrow.

Xiao Yu recalled: "I remember, my mother told me that when my brother was born, there was great chaos in the court. The cause was that Prince Jinchang used witchcraft to harm his brother. After being exposed, he became angry and killed countless innocent people. People, the first emperor was furious and ordered to shoot him outside the Shenghua Hall."

The old man nodded and said, "That's right, that's what the outside world said."

She was not born when Prince Jinchang was killed, so she had never met Prince Jinchang, nor the late emperor.

Three days after the death of Prince Jinchang, the first emperor died suddenly, and the only surviving fourth prince ascended the throne.

"The prince is kind, how could he do such a rebellious thing? He was framed by others." Referring to his benefactor, the old man couldn't bear to say: "The old man was also killed miserably, he arranged for me and Ziyan to escape from the capital overnight , Ke Ziyan disappeared, and I returned to Jinzhou alone."

Xiao Yu sighed in his heart.

Since ancient times, the change of dynasties and the struggle for the throne have killed many innocent people and shed blood and tears.

Countless.

I don't know.

The old man looked at his youngest son and said, "I went back to Jinzhou alone, married a wife and had children. Although life is poor, it is fortunate that it is safe and smooth."

When mentioning his wife and children, his wrinkled brows gradually relaxed.

"You never thought about avenging your parents?" Xiao Yu asked curiously.

He shook his head, and replied: "I don't have that ability, I just want to stay in a corner, and don't want to get involved in any right and wrong."

However, the world is restless, and honest people can only let others bully them.

"It's all my fault..."

The old man looked up at the swallow's nest under the eaves. The female swallow was coming back from foraging and feeding the food to the children.

"As a father, I'm really cowardly and incompetent, that's why my own son was beaten to death, and my son became a fool, I hate it!"

Although he was full of anger, his tone was calm, as if he was someone who would never lose his temper.

Xiao Yu couldn't bear to hear any more, the fate of the two brothers of the Hu family was really rough, and she especially felt the grief of losing a loved one.

But she didn't know how to speak.

If he hadn't been so cowardly, his eldest son would not have been beaten to death, and his younger son would not have become a fool.

His kindness is actually helplessness and compromise.

-

Today, two distinguished guests came to Tianqing Pavilion.

Hua Miao was playing for the guests, but was forcibly interrupted by the shopkeeper, and then led to the boxes of the two distinguished guests.

Chu Zhijiang frowned.

No matter how wonderful the sound of the piano is, it can't get rid of the depression in my heart.
