Chapter 229 Father Emperor
"After the great defeat of the army sent by the imperial court, your Seventh Emperor Uncle quickly sent people back to Beijing to report the military situation, ask for reinforcements, and also invited your father, the emperor, to go on the expedition in person, so as to boost the morale of the soldiers, frighten the Xirong people and defeat them. .

Later, your father, the emperor, personally took command of the expedition and led the army to the frontier. "

Speaking of the late emperor, Mr. Xiao's tone was full of reverence, and then he said a lot of good things about the late emperor to Wei Hang.

The first emperor was a wise and holy king, with a gentle and military strategy, hardworking, respectful, thrifty and caring for the people.

Therefore, it won the support of the people, the worship of the officials, and the surrounding small countries all surrendered to the dynasty, except of course the Xirong country with wolf ambitions.

Although Weihang didn't have much affection for the father who suddenly appeared in his life who fell from the sky, he still felt a little proud when he heard his father praise him so much.

So he really wanted to know if his father liked his son, so he raised his face and asked his father: "Father, he, when he went to fight, was I born?"

"Hang'er hasn't been born yet, she's in your mother's womb." Mother rushed to tell Wei Hang.

My father said sadly, "It must have been a great regret for the late Emperor that I didn't see you born."

Queen Mother, what kind of person is she?Wei Hang wanted to ask, but his father had already continued talking about his father.

"After your father led the troops to the border, he immediately faced the Xirong people. The generals who went with him were your adoptive father and Uncle Li. With your father in charge and two generals who are good at fighting with soldiers, the situation will soon be reversed. The situation was broken, and the Xirong people were beaten back steadily."

Finally hearing the good news, Wei Hang couldn't help clapping his hands and shouting: "Father, did the people of Xirong cry and beg for mercy?"

"That's right, the people of Xirong were about to be overwhelmed. They retreated back to the country of Xirong and never dared to come to the border to make trouble again. They even sent envoys to make peace. At that time, they made a sincere look and said I am willing to bow my head and be a minister, pay tribute every year, restore the peace of the border, and never cause trouble."

Having said that, my father stopped talking.

"And then?" Wei Hang listened anxiously.

The mother continued: "It was only then that I realized that all this was an illusion made up by the Xirong people."

"It's horrible, how could they do this?" Xiao Weihang couldn't help clenching his fists and pursing his mouth, very angry.

"Yes, the Xirong people have sinister intentions. At that time, your Seventh Uncle was deceived by the Xirong people. He even spoke for the Xirong people, and advised your father to forgive others and let them go. Your father has always His kindness and generosity are all right.

So the army was preparing to go back to the court. That day, the king of Xirong hosted a banquet and invited your adoptive father and Uncle Li to the royal city of Xirong to celebrate the re-establishment of friendship between the two countries.Because Wangcheng is far away from the border town, you can't go back and forth that day, so your adoptive father and Uncle Li stayed there for one night. "

Father's voice suddenly became low, as if he was extremely unwilling to talk about the following things.After his mother persuaded him a few words, his father continued: "But that night, something happened that made everyone in this dynasty regret it."

Xiao Weihang's heart beat faster, and his little hands couldn't help but tightly grasped his father's skirt.

"Some people from Xirong sneaked into the border town and even poisoned your father's and Seventh Emperor's uncle's meals, causing your father's death that night. Your Seventh Emperor's uncle ate less and was lucky enough to be rescued."

Speaking of this, his father's face was as cold as ice, and his whole body seemed to be frozen. Even Wei Hang, who was leaning against him, felt that his father's body was stiff.

His little heart was instantly overwhelmed by sadness, perhaps it was the connection between father and son. At that moment, he suddenly had a good impression of this father who had never met before, and felt really sad for his death.

Mother's complexion was also not good-looking, as heavy as frost, and she secretly raised her hand to wipe her tears.

The first emperor was a good emperor, and his people were blessed with him.Not to mention far away, let's just say that the current emperor is far worse than the previous emperor.

Although no one dared to say it, everyone knew it.

Father reached out to pick up Weihang and put him on his lap.

"Hang'er, remember, your father was killed by the Xirong people. This is a bloody feud that cannot be shared."

His father's serious words sounded in his ears, and Wei Hang couldn't help nodding his head. He stretched out his hand to hold his father's hand, and said to his father, "Father, Hang'er remembers it, and I will never forget it."

Father's hands were covered with sweat, one can imagine how emotional he was at that time.

"Okay, when Hang'er grows up, he must avenge the late emperor. I'm afraid it will be impossible to count on you, Seventh Emperor Uncle."

The mother hurriedly interrupted the father's words: "Father, don't talk about the emperor, Hang'er, you are the same, you can't tell anyone other than your father, mother, adoptive father and adoptive mother, Uncle Li and Aunt Li. Life experience, do you remember?"

Weihang continued to nod, and his mother sighed, and said to him: "Otherwise, you may be killed, and you, your younger brother, and your parents will not be able to escape."

Hearing what his mother said, Wei Hang immediately shook his head like a rattle, and said eagerly: "No, I don't want them to harm my father, mother and younger brother. Father and mother, Hang'er will be good and won't say a word to other people. Just keep playing the fool."

His father stroked his back and said, "Hang'er is really sensible. We have to be cautious, because many people are watching secretly. If the news leaks out, the consequences will be disastrous. Hang'er, father will tell you, in order to protect you , has already sacrificed the lives of many people. Therefore, Hang'er must be well."

The tears in the mother's eyes surged out and fell down.Weihang quickly got off his father's lap, ran to his mother, wiped away tears for his mother in a panic, and told his mother that he would be fine, trying to comfort her not to be sad.

At that time, he didn't know that his parents also made huge sacrifices for him, especially for his mother, making that decision was more painful than cutting out a heart with a knife, and the pain has since taken root in the rest of his mother's life.

He will always remember that time when he helped his mother wipe away tears, but he still couldn't do it.

But that day, my parents didn't say a word about it.Weihang was informed by her mother after meeting her.

Later, my father pulled Wei Hang to his side and said to him, let your mother cry, maybe she will feel better.Wei Hang didn't quite understand, but he chose to obey his father's instructions and didn't bother his mother anymore.

Amid tears in his mother's eyes, his father went on to tell him what happened next.

"Later, the people who stood in front of your father testified that your father passed the throne to your Seventh Uncle when he was dying, and then passed away. Your Seventh Uncle dragged his sick body, knelt on the ground, and wailed loudly. Cry, passed out.

Later, the King of Xirong tied up the two poisoned Xirong people in front of your Seventh Emperor Uncle. The two Xirong people said that because their relatives were killed on the battlefield, they hated your father and Seventh Emperor Uncle, so they sneaked into the palace. Poison.

After your Uncle Seventh Emperor killed them, he cut them into pieces and smashed their corpses into pieces to vent his hatred. "

Speaking of this, my father stared blankly at the corner of the wall, and muttered: "Maybe it's not necessarily a play."

"Father, what are you talking about? What are you doing?"

The mother rushed to answer: "Hang'er, it's nothing." Then she turned to her father and said, "Father, don't say anything without evidence. Be careful that the wall has ears. Also, Hang'er is still too young, so don't let him live." Back so much. "

"Mother, I know. Hang'er, Dad was just talking about other things." His father patted his shoulder and said to him in a depressed mood.
