Tell the lord, the princess has climbed the wall

Chapter 95 He used to be a prince?

"By the way, I was curious to ask you, why did you go to Tianlong Temple on the eve of your wedding?"

"What else can I do? I heard others say that the incense here is good, and I nervously went up the mountain to worship before getting married." Zuo Mu said casually, "Then what about you, why are you rushing up and down the mountain in such a hot day? The princess fell ill after running around all day?"

"Hey, speaking of it, it actually has something to do with you, Aunt Wang,"

"Related to me? Why?"

"You don't know, July [-]th is the anniversary of my grandfather's death. Every year at this time, my grandmother will go up to the mountain to stay for a while, but this year when the [-]th comes, I suddenly receive a letter from my elder brother, saying that Uncle Kang will get married on the [-]th of July. She wished her grandmother would show up to a wedding reception anyway.

This is the first time that the eldest brother has taken the initiative to write a letter for his grandmother after guarding Los Angeles for more than ten years. The excited mistress decided to go down the mountain overnight after paying homage to her grandfather. "

Thinking of the scene of going down the mountain that day, Wei Zhaoran shrugged and said helplessly.

"However, you also know later that God's will, we still failed to catch up with your wedding."

"Hey, I'm afraid that if you catch up, you may not be able to attend any wedding banquet." Zuo Mu laughed at himself.

"However, I'm very surprised. Aren't your grandmother and Kang Wang new aunts and nephews? Could it be that they didn't have a good relationship before? Why didn't she attend any of Kang Wang's previous weddings?"

"I don't know the details." Wei Zhaoran sighed and said, "Anyway, since I can remember, my grandmother has never talked to Uncle Kang Wang once, just a few times in recent times. Also because of you."

"It turned out to be like this? Then do you know the reason?" Zuo Mu was startled and asked.

"It's a long story to say, after all, I was still young at that time," Wei Zhaoran thought hard, and then Fang replied, "However, I also vaguely heard the second brother say it a few times. The general reason is that, as we all know, Although my grandfather was a great general during his lifetime, when he died in the last battle, the commander in chief was Uncle Kang."

"General Wei and the others are going to fight, how can Kang Wang be the coach?" Zuo Mu said incredulously,
"Besides, how many years ago did that happen? He was still very young at that time, right? It must be due to his youthful vigor and improper command."

"Maybe he's only seventeen or eighteen years old, but I heard from my second brother that Uncle Kang Wang is actually a genius in warfare. He led soldiers to fight at the age of fourteen or fifteen. Although he is very young, he uses soldiers like a god every time. Defeating the enemy every time, even those veteran generals who have experienced many battles are not as good, no, that's why the world has been named the god of war once in a thousand years.

It's a pity that he only fought such a defeat in his life, but unexpectedly left such a painful lesson. "Speaking of what happened to Sima Cheng, Wei Zhaoran expressed regret.

Well, Zuo Mu had already heard about this from her master before, but just looking at someone with a black belly, why couldn't she see the shadow of God of War back then?
On the contrary, the eldest princess, although she is old now and has not been on the battlefield for a long time, her heroic spirit is still the same as before.Zuo Mu thought silently.

"Then what about your elder brother? What's going on with him? Why hasn't he taken the initiative to write a letter to your grandmother for so many years? This time he only wrote a letter to intercede for King Kang?" After thinking about it, Zuo Mu asked curiously again.

"It's more complicated to say this, in fact, my eldest brother, Bai Qi's eldest brother, and Kang Wangshu grew up together.

At that time, Elder Brother Bai Qi was the companion of Uncle Kang. Because of his mother, my elder brother was very fond of the late emperor, and he often went to the palace, and he and Uncle Kang lived and ate almost together.
The three have been inseparable since they were young, studying and practicing martial arts together, and even determined to fight in all directions when they grow up, and become famous in Xixia. "

Speaking of the high-spirited past of the three teenagers, Wei Zhaoran was full of envy, wishing that he would immediately become a man, born in that era,
"But the result is that the world is not fooling people. Look at them now, they are sick and decadent, and my elder brother is the only one who still insists on the original oath.

For this matter, no one in the second elder brother sighed in private, saying that if those things hadn’t happened at that time, the battle would not have been defeated, if the grandfather was still alive, and the crown prince, Uncle Kang, had successfully become a regular, then how powerful Xixia would be now, everyone What kind of prosperous world will usher in..."

"Wait..." Zuo Mu interrupted Wei Zhaoran and said in shock, "Prince? You said King Kang used to be the prince of Xixia?"

He turned out to be the prince in the past, why had he never heard of it being mentioned, not even his master had mentioned it.

"That's right, don't you know this?" After asking, Wei Zhaoran felt it was ridiculous, and said to himself,
"That's right, the current emperor is the most taboo about this question, even we can't say it casually, and it's even more impossible for you to hear it.

Uncle Kang Wang was very fond of the former emperor when he was young, and he was appointed as the prince of Xixia when he was one year old, but because of his defeat in the war, he fell seriously ill, and the current emperor..."

"Early in the morning, you two are standing so high, what are you muttering about?" The two of them were talking about a crucial point when they suddenly heard a cheerful voice behind them.

The two of them knew without looking back that it must be that lazy girl Bai Shan who came.

Zuo Mu and Wei Zhaoran stopped their mouths by coincidence, looked at each other, and said in unison, "Standing so high, it's natural to speak ill of you."

"Cut, I don't want to believe it. It's clear that you, a stinky girl, may speak ill of me. Aunt Kang Wang won't speak ill of me." Bai Shan curled her lips and smiled innocently.

When he walked to the two of them, he suddenly thought of something, and asked curiously, "By the way, I didn't intend to go out last night. Why did I see your second brother rushing down the mountain in a carriage and just arrived this afternoon? gone?"

"Oh, maybe there is something urgent in the mansion, and grandma urges him to go back and deal with it." Wei Zhaoran's eyes flickered, and he said cryptically.

Bai Shan reached out and snatched the maple leaf from her hand, and asked casually, "Then there's no need to drive the carriage, it's such a hassle, isn't there someone sitting in the carriage?"

"This..." Wei Zhaoran showed embarrassment, for a moment he didn't know how to speak.

Although Bai Shan was asking about something, her eyes were focused on looking at the maple leaf in her hand, and she didn't look up from the beginning to the end, so she didn't notice Wei Zhaoran's strangeness at all.

Zuo Mu raised his hand and stroked Wei Zhaoran's shoulder, and said, "I think it should be the old couple from yesterday, didn't they say they want to take a ride to Beijing? It should be by the way."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at the maple leaf in Bai Shan's hand, seeing that the leaf shape was beautiful and fiery red, he hurriedly changed the subject and said,
"I think this maple leaf is really pretty, why don't we pick a few more and bring them back."
