Stunning at Every Step: Sheng Chong Ghost Princess

Chapter 576

"housekeeper."

The butler who was standing by not far away stepped forward: "What orders does Your Highness have?"

"Luanhuang hasn't returned yet?"

"Not returned."

Then he had to go and have a look, Huangfu Jue stepped out of the eaves, and the old housekeeper opened an umbrella to cover his head and followed.After walking a few steps, the butler followed suit. He could only take the umbrella from the butler: "The butler doesn't have to follow."

"Yes."

The housekeeper didn't follow, but several shadow guards followed secretly, and Huangfujue didn't stop him.

The snow fell bigger and bigger, falling in sight one after another.

A small old house in the east of the city closed its doors and was as quiet as if there was no one there.

This is Meng Zhuang's house. The front door is covered with snow and there are no footprints. It is obvious that the people in the house have not moved.

As expected, outside the closed door stood a motionless figure like a sculpture.

He hadn't seen him for more than half a year.

He is seventeen this year.

His stature was about the same height as Huangfu Jue's, his back was still thin and straight, but it was hardened by the wind and snow, like a stone.With so little clothes on, no matter how big the wind and snow is, it will really freeze.

Lord Huangfu walked over, stood beside him and covered his head with an umbrella.

It took a long time to look over slowly, his eyes seemed to be frozen by the wind and snow, but the moment he saw Huangfu Lord, his eyes were shattered, and he turned away abruptly with shame and grievance.

Fengxue Donghong's face was full of stubble, and he didn't look like the queen he knew.

The two watched in silence for a long time, the wind and snow getting bigger and bigger.

Lord Huangfu's tone was the same as usual, but he could hear clearly afterward, he said.

"This king occasionally thinks, what is the difference between me and Hong Ba? After thinking about it again and again, the result is the same. Hong Ba's aggression will cause the death of many innocent lives, and the same is true for my so-called protection. I told you before, think To make the world peaceful, I sacrificed the lives of countless people, including Mengzhuang, for peace."

This is true.

He accepted the mandate of heaven to destroy the God of Heaven Yu, the reason is to prevent him from gathering human beings and launching a war between the two realms against the heavens.

It seems that the reason is very high-sounding, but after all, it is still for a thing that has not happened to use humans to fight back against humans.

The price of preventing problems before they happen is already disasters.

Huangfujue smiled helplessly: "I made many old people like Meng Zhuang's mother lose their children and have nowhere to go."

Then he frowned, and slowly looked at him.

He looked at the closed door: "Maybe even one day, I stood guard at the top of the city and watched the returning team, but I couldn't find the figure behind. If there was such a day, would you blame me under Jiuquan? "

will not.

Then he opened his mouth and couldn't speak, his voice was too hoarse.

If he felt that the souls of the dead would fall on the living, then what was the soul of the dead compared to Huangfu Lord?He felt heavy, how did Lord Huangfu carry it down?
After that, he didn't continue to explain, but turned his head to look at the closed door, and finally turned around and strode back.

Huangfu Jue was not waiting, he was the only one walking in the wind hole.

When I returned to Juewang’s mansion, I happened to bump into Luanhuang. Luanhuang rushed over: “Queen! Where did you go? Do you want everyone in the mansion to look for you?! Or do you want to go with Mengzhuang?” die?"

After saying this, Luanhuang felt a little regretful, she was actually worried, but when she saw that he had returned safely, her heart fell back to its original place, but her anger soared.

After saluting her, he went back to his yard without saying anything.

Luanhuang knew that he had said something he shouldn't have said, and he was only 17 years old. Seeing Meng Zhuang die tragically for him, he felt uncomfortable and understandable.

It's just that she coaxed, persuaded, and scolded.

Finally, he just said, "Master, let the latter be quiet for a while."

At first she let him be alone, but he kept lying down and sleeping, which made Luanhuang very unbearable.

"From the moment you join the army, in human terms, you should be prepared to put your head on your trouser belt. If you can't bear it, don't ask His Highness to practice martial arts, but vowed to go to battle to kill the enemy. Revenge, what else can you do like this?!"

Then, Luanhuang kicked open the door, dragged her back from the bed to the dining table, and almost had food stuffed into his mouth.

"I also saved your life, or your master, I ordered you to eat!"

Afterwards, he didn't say anything, picked up chopsticks to eat, ate two big bowls, and said, "Master, I'm sorry to make you worry."

After hearing this sentence, Luanhuang felt her nose sore.

In fact, what she wanted was not such an effect. She wanted to help him untie his knot, but she couldn't seem to find a way.

She gritted her teeth and took a deep breath: "It's all my fault. As the general, I took you out, but failed to bring all of you back."

There was a lump in the back of his throat, and he knew that no one was right, but he couldn't accept it if he couldn't get too close. Many people, like him, were accepting the pain of losing their compatriots and relatives.

That's the case with Lord Huangfu.

The same is true for Master Luanhuang.

But like a spoiled child by them, he selfishly brought his emotions to them and let them bear his pain.As everyone knows, their pain is several times his.

Then he got up and walked in front of Luanhuang, knelt down on both knees.

"I know I was wrong later, Master, I won't be like this in the future."

Luanhuang's eyes turned red, and she really wanted to hug him and cry, but she was not used to being weak, so she got up immediately: "Take a good rest!"

After he finished speaking, he got up and left.

The snow was still falling, and the wind was blowing through the open windows.

After standing in front of the window, I still couldn't adapt to the night without enemies, it was too peaceful, and the sense of crisis in my body was at a loss.

button button

There was a knock on the door.

"Is the son asleep?"

is the housekeeper.

Get up and open the door.

The steward gave him a wooden box: "This is what His Highness asked the old slave to hand over to the young master."

It's a food box.

After opening it, there are glutinous rice rolls, hibiscus pastries and other delicate pastries inside.

How did he not know whose craft it was? !

Meng Zhuang's mother used to make dim sum for him. The kind mother who sent her son off on the northern border with Meng Zhuang last time gave Meng Zhuang a portion of food, and gave him the same one.

When I saw these pastries, my heart was pierced.

There was also a letter in the food box with the mother's beautiful handwriting on it.

The latter son, Meng Zhuang once said that he was lucky enough to come back to reunite with his mother this time because Zhou Zigang blocked an arrow for him with his body.Later, he became a lieutenant general, and it was Wang Xun, the left guard, who protected him at the moment of life and death.Unfortunately, I was never able to cook a meal for those two kids.

The letter did not say resentment or forgiveness, but only stated that someone had died because of Mengzhuang.

But this letter is equivalent to forgiveness, but it is too helpless and desolate.

Then he suddenly rushed to Huangfujue's study with the food box and the letter in his arms, but he was not in the study, so he immediately turned around and went to his bedroom, and pushed open Huangfujue's door with a bang.

The Huangfu Lord who was taking off his cloak turned around, and when he saw the door, he showed a faint smile.

Her eyes trembled a little: "Did you ask her to do this?"

"No."

"Then why did you take it back?"

"Oh, the king wanted to see Mother Meng, so he entered her yard."

He said it very easily, but later on, he went in to make amends, right?

Huangfujue hung the untied cloak on the shelf: "No, it's not what you think. When I entered the room, I saw Mother Meng busy by the stove. She told me to wait, and then gave the food box to me." My king."

Then he looked closely at Huangfu Jue.

Huangfujue stood where he was, responded to his gaze, and said earnestly: "Finally, many things we don't want to face are sometimes different from what we think. After so much, you have gradually become an adult who can take care of yourself. , this king hopes that no matter whether it is a heart or a crime, you will not hide from it, and you will face it even if you are afraid."

Nod back.

"Yes."

"Well, let's go back then."

Did not move.

Still looking at him.

"Is there anything else you want to tell the king?"

Yes, I just don't know how to speak.

"Mrs. Meng wrote a letter to her subordinates." Actually, that's not what he wanted to say.

"Ah."

"Your Highness, do you know what was written?"

"It's for you, this king naturally doesn't know."

"She didn't say forgiveness, but...she didn't hold grudges either."

"Otherwise how can I prepare these for you?"

There was another moment of silence, Huangfu Jue just looked at him quietly, his eyes were like the moonlight quietly shining in the night, calm and tolerant.

It was inexplicably reassuring, and then took a deep breath and faced Huangfu Jue, expressing the fear in his heart: "Your Highness, isn't the queen really a disaster?"

Lord Huangfu: "..."

Hou twitched the corner of his mouth bitterly: "Wouldn't the people who are being treated by my subordinates have a good end? If the queen didn't want to hold them tightly, wouldn't I lose them?"

It turned out that he had never untied this knot.

Disastrous to the country and the people, restraining the relatives and restraining the people, the fate of His Highness the Houtu Kingdom had befallen him since he was not born, and then came true one by one.

"Master, brothers, Empress Houtu, Fuman, Mengzhuang..." Hou's eyes were red, and he asked honestly after hearing his words, "If it wasn't because of Hou, would they still be safe and sound?"

Suddenly I don't know how to answer him.

It is like telling a person who cannot swim that water is not scary, and telling a person who is afraid of thunder and lightning that lightning will not strike him.The language is so pale that it is not enough to appease a person's loneliness and fear.

"Even Your Highness thinks it's because of the queen, right?"

"No, I'm just clumsy and don't know how to comfort me. I couldn't find a way to guide me like carving a boat or fishing sand for a while. I suddenly felt that I had grown up, read a lot of books, met a lot of people, and knew a lot of truths. But I can't comfort myself, this is what adults really look like."

"Your Highness will do the same?" In Hou's eyes, he was always omnipotent.

Huangfujue thought for a while, but he didn't answer this question, and asked suddenly: "Can I be the person who will be the follow-up doctor?"

what?
"In the end, I probably don't know how powerful I am."

Huangfujue stood where he was, and looked at him habitually, with calm and generous eyes: "I am a person who can carry it for you no matter how troublesome you are, even if I still don't believe that everything is caused by you."

In fact, he didn't know how much he had examined him, so he was afraid that his fate would harm him. Looking back at this person who was not chaotic before the landslide, in fact, what he wanted to say was that he felt that he would never return to him from a long time ago. It's safe around here.

He seemed to understand his thoughts again, and smiled faintly at him.

"come over."

Then approached him.

Huangfujue tapped on his forehead, and a ray of flame penetrated into the center of his brow. Looking closely, it was in the shape of a fire phoenix, but it quickly disappeared under the center of his brow.

"There is a sun in the daytime, and a moon in the evening night. The sun and the moon are the light, and the sky is the sky. After that, I swear in the name of the gods of the mausoleum of the gods, and give you a new name, Xiri. After Xiri, from today , I will be your Fu Zhao, the bright moon in your darkness, shining on you forever."

So, don't be afraid, go ahead.

The bright moon will always be there.
