Seeing He Qizhou gradually running out of sight, several of Shen Tinggu's subordinates came one after another. At this time, the sound of horse hooves on the official road was loud, and a large group of Yulin guards poured out from the north gate of the outer city, and soon caught up with Shen Tinggu.
Shen Tinggu was overjoyed, grabbed a horse, and led hundreds of Yulin guards to chase in the direction where He Qizhou disappeared.
"Master Shen, the emperor also sent five battalions of cavalry to search for He Qizhou from the west, east and north!" the leader of the Yulin Guards said to Shen Tinggu.
"He Qizhou has been seriously injured! He is only one or two miles away from us at most. Chase him quickly!" Shen Tinggu shouted. Sure enough, after chasing for four or five miles, the horse that He Qizhou had snatched was found on the side of the official road, but He Qizhou didn't.
Missing!
"If he can't run far, he must still be within the city! Search in all directions, door to door!" Shen Tinggu said angrily.
"Yes! I'll send some more men over!" the leader of the Yulin Guards immediately replied.
…
He Qizhou was indeed still in Kuocheng, and very close to Shentinggu! As the sound of horse hooves behind him became louder and louder, He Qizhou knew that the horse he snatched would definitely not be comparable to Yu Linwei's horse, so he started ruthlessly
He kicked the horse's butt hard, then jumped to a ditch beside the official road and lowered himself down. After the Yulin Guards led by Shen Tinggu rushed past, he immediately changed direction and ran towards the north gate.
go!
As a result of receiving two palms from Shen Tinggu, especially the second palm, He Qizhou, who was 90% healed from his injuries, was severely injured again. Knowing that he could not run far, he prepared to go in the opposite direction and return to the city to avoid pursuit!
But He Qizhou immediately discovered that this method seemed to be unworkable. It was just after noon, and although the weather was extremely cold, the closer to the outer city wall, the more people lived in the houses, and there were cars and horses passing by on the official road from time to time. Now his
There were blood stains on his singlet, so he couldn't sneak into the outer city quietly. He could only sneak into the house next to the official road and move closer to the city wall in the fields while no one was prepared.
"Master Jun! I still have to hurry!"
"Go away!"
He Qizhou, who was hiding behind a big tree, happened to see a Yulin guard snatching a passerby's horse, and he had a suspicion in his mind. He suddenly rushed out from behind the big tree on the side of the road and quickly subdued him with his little internal strength.
The two people who were quarreling, under the prying eyes of passers-by, peeled off the Yulin Guards' armor and put it on themselves. Most of the Yulin Guards were tall and tall, so He Qizhou's suit fit him well, and then without saying a word, he immediately drove his horse to change.
Run to the west of the city.
The Yulin Guard's horse was snatched away by Shen Tinggu. He wanted to snatch a horse to catch up with his team, but unexpectedly he met He Qizhou again.
After Shen Tinggu sent people to search north, east and west without success, he suddenly thought of the possibility of He Qizhou returning to the capital, and immediately sent people to investigate south. After finding the soldier whose clothes were stripped by He Qizhou and his acupoints were tapped, He Qizhou had already used his feathers to
In Lin Wei's attire, he jumped out of the two lines of defense and rushed to the outskirts of Kuocheng! When he walked out of Kuocheng, He Qizhou changed his horse three more times and changed his clothes twice, both times when there were few pedestrians. At night,
Finally, I hid in the pitch-black Daqingshan Mountains and got a chance to breathe.
After calming down, He Qizhou began to examine his situation: the injury that was 90% healed has now returned to 50%, and he will not be able to recover for another year and a half; more and more people have seen his true face, and it is dangerous to walk around the capital.
will be infinitely magnified; if He Qingshan is really dead, then Helian Qingshan’s hope of obtaining the Quanzhen Kung Fu will fall on him, so the other party will not kill him for the time being...
Except for the two sets of clothes he snatched, let alone medicine, He Qizhou brought almost nothing with him. It was still surprisingly cold in Daqingshan in February, but he had experienced cold weather, so He Qizhou was not afraid.
After spending a night practicing Qigong in a mountain col to heal his injuries, he finally forced all the incoming Qi from Shen Tinggu out of his body.
When the morning light first appeared, He Qizhou stretched his body and took out Yan Wuji's letter from his arms. There were two things in the envelope, a piece of paper and another envelope. The piece of paper was a map, indicating the location of the princess's mausoleum, and
There was nothing written on the envelope. He Qizhou was about to open it and check it when he heard the sound of people and horses nearby. Worried that they were officers and soldiers searching for him, He Qizhou quickly led his horse to the exit at the other end of the col.
The reason why he chose this place to heal his wounds last night was because he was familiar with the terrain here. It was outside this mountain col that he and Yan Wuji teamed up to kill the previous leader of the Fire Hall. After He Qizhou walked out of the mountain col, he immediately rode away.
After forming a large circle outside the city, they found the mill of the Lotus Gang outside the city.
He Qizhou didn't want to risk entering the city at this pass, so he asked his brothers from the Lotus Gang to go into the city to bring a message to Luo Yu. Several brothers stationed there recognized He Qizhou as the hall master, and immediately sent people into the city. Soon, it was almost
The frantic Luo Yu received He Qizhou's handwritten letter.
"Luo Yu: Master is fine, don't worry. Pack up the sword, medicine and two cans of ashes and hand them over to the visitor. He will take them to Master.
It's bitterly cold in the North Sea, and Master is unable to take you with him. He will return after he fulfills his mother's wish. It could be as early as four or five months, or as late as a year. You can stay at the wine shop with peace of mind and practice well! Master knows that you are smart, so don't cause too many troubles.
It is best to be careful in everything. If an old man claims to have no disease, he can be trusted.
I told the bartender that I had something to do and was away on business. You should take care of yourself and wait for Master to come back. This letter will be burned after reading it, so remember it!"
The leader of Mutang Hall was assassinated, and the emperor rarely sent Yulin Guards to arrest the murderer. This incident has caused a sensation in the capital, and the Mengzhou Restaurant near Mutang knew about it early. Luo Yu knew that it was He Qizhou who had done it, so he couldn't help but be frightened.
One day, I wanted to go out to explore several times, but I was worried that I would miss the master who returned to the wine shop, so I kept circling in the backyard like an ant on a hot pot. It was not until I received a letter from He Qizhou at noon the next day that I finally thought about it.
Relax.
But as soon as he heard that He Qizhou was going to leave her and go north alone, worries arose in her heart. Luo Yu was a smart person. He didn't dare to go back to the wine shop when he saw his master, so he knew that the situation was not good, but there was nothing he could do, so he could only put away his worries.
, according to the words in the letter, he quickly packed a suitcase and handed it to the person who brought the letter. Then he wiped away his tears, burned the letter, and informed the second shopkeeper that He Qizhou would not be back in the near future. For fear that the store clerk would become suspicious, Luo Yu added
In one sentence, He Qizhou was sent by Tutang and acted quietly, telling the second shopkeeper not to make any noise.
The second shopkeeper wasn't too surprised. He seemed to be talking to himself or to Luo Yu: I didn't expect that the young shopkeeper and the old shopkeeper are really the same people. How can we, ordinary people who just make a living, care about this?
There are so many, we will be good to whoever is good to us, no matter who he is.
Luo Yu heard the implication and knew that the wine shop clerks were not stupid. They seemed to be grateful to the old shopkeeper and were unlikely to sell themselves out. So he gave up the idea of going out of the city to pursue He Qizhou and prepared to stay there as He Qizhou said.
In the wine shop, waiting for He Qizhou to come back.
He Qizhou, who was waiting for news in a mill outside the city, kept clutching the unopened letter. Although he had always hated He Qingshan in the past, now that his adoptive parents have passed away and his biological mother has also passed away long ago, He Qingshan is not the one in the rumors.
That kind of treacherous and evil person, at this time, I always have the urge to see him again, and even want to save He Qingshan from the sea of suffering like Master Lu Baogen.
He Qingshan seems to have become the only tie and hope in He Qizhou's dying heart, but if he opens this letter, will that little bit of hope disappear with the wind? There is probably only one or two sheets in the envelope.
The paper was thin, but it was like a huge weight in He Qizhou's hands. He lifted it up and put it down, tightened it and loosened it. More than an hour passed, but he still couldn't make up his mind to read the contents of the letter.
The person who brought the letter for him came back soon. The luggage contained more than what he asked for, including a large bag of silver, dry food and meat, a water bag, and two sets of clothes... He Qizhou felt a warm feeling in his heart.
I mean, after traveling thousands of miles, that diligent little girl ignored her sarcastic words and took care of herself meticulously... But when she lowered her head and looked at the letter in her hand, the trace of warmth was immediately lost in the bottomless water.
Caught in an ice cave.
At nightfall, He Qizhou bid farewell to the mill and rushed to Yunzhong County on the west side of Qingcheng as shown on the map, where his biological mother was buried, and his grateful adoptive mother planned to leave some of the ashes to share with the princess who was also her owner and friend.
Together in life and death.
After galloping all night, He Qizhou arrived at the Imperial Tomb of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, which is surrounded by mountains and rivers. There was a group of hundreds of defenders outside the imperial mausoleum. Of course, this could not stop He Qizhou from sneaking in. As an evil minister, Helian Mingyue should not be buried in the imperial mausoleum.
However, Helian Qingfeng still secretly ordered someone to bury him in the southwest corner of the imperial mausoleum, thinking of his brother-sister relationship. There was no tree monument, no biography, only a small tomb, and a faint stone slab under the mound.
The word "Mingyue" is engraved on the ground.
He Qizhou kowtowed three times in front of the stone slab to the biological mother he had never met before in his memory, kowtowed three more times for Yan Wuji, and then began to pick up the soil beside the mound with his bare hands. The soil here was colder than the soil beside Yang Zheng's tomb.
Even tighter, He Qizhou still didn't want to use any tools. His ten fingers that had just healed began to bleed again, but the pain in his fingers was far less than the pain in his heart. The frozen soil peeled off layer by layer felt like it was being peeled off and knotted in his heart.
Blood scab on it.
After burying the ashes in the second jar and covering them with frozen soil again, He Qizhou took out the crumpled letter and whispered: "Mom, this is the letter my father wrote to me. I dare not read it..."
He Qizhou finally tore open the envelope. There were two pages in total. The first line of the first page was like a heavy hammer, smashing He Qizhou's last hope into pieces! "Your Highness, I have buried He Qingshan's body in
Next to the princess..."
He Qizhou forced himself to look down, and Yan Wuji wrote the last words He Qingshan told him when he left the palace on the top of the mountain, and then told how he found the remains in the valley and secretly buried them here. Due to his unusual whereabouts in those days,
He also aroused Helian Qingfeng's suspicion. At the end of the letter, he asked He Qizhou to keep his name anonymous and never get involved in royal disputes again.
He Qizhou looked at the second piece of paper, which was He Qingshan's suicide note to himself:
[Zhou'er, when you read this letter, it is estimated that your father is no longer alive. Being able to see you again is the greatest blessing in my life, so don't be sad for me, I have no regrets!
You may still question my character, and even feel pain because your biological father is a traitor who is greedy for life and afraid of death. But you don’t have to be like this. I have never considered myself a traitor, and I have never betrayed my beliefs.
I have always been loyal to my best friend and brother, Yang Zheng, so as long as he can survive, false reputations are like smoke to me;
I have always been loyal to my beloved wife Helian Mingyue, even if Helian Qingfeng moved the entire harem, I was never moved;
I have always cared about the people and been loyal to my idea of turning war into friendship, so I tried every means to get the two countries to stop fighting and trade, and to bear the name of a traitor. I named you He Qizhou, which means that I want peace between Qi and Zhou;
But I have never been loyal to the ambitious royal families of the two countries, and I will not voluntarily become the lackey of the Jiang family just because I was born in Qi. If it were not for the suffering people in the north, and to protect my brother Yang Zheng, I would not even Willing to join the army!
In fact, I want to return to Qi all the time, and I want to go back to find you. But I have been poisoned by their datura and I can't extricate myself. If I don't take it for three days, I will die. So I persuaded Yang Zheng to retreat and reminded Lu Senior brother retreated when he saw the difficulty. The place where I was imprisoned was purely a trap.
I am really afraid of death, very scared! But I also want to die. The pain during the poisonous attack will even make me want to give up my dignity as a human being. But my father does not want to give in, let alone be willing to do so. What I am thinking is When I look at you again, the impression that remains in my mind is that you were white and chubby when you were just born, and your hands and feet are like tender lotus root joints, which makes people want to take a few bites... I always I dreamed of your smile when you were drooling. It was the dream I had the most, and it was also the happiest moment of my day.
Since you want to live, you can't live in vain! I have my own ideas and methods. I know that Helian Qingfeng not only wanted to unify the Central Plains, but also wanted to reach the top in martial arts, so he deliberately used the true and false Huazhen Kung Fu to make He Lian Qingfeng Even Qingfeng and the martial arts geniuses of the Northern Zhou Dynasty spent their energy on the long process of identifying the authenticity and studying the techniques, so that they could not spare more time to deal with Qi;
With Helian Changji's natural appearance, any expert who teaches him will achieve far better than his current achievements. Of course, I have seen his true colors, so my ultimate goal is just to waste him. Huazhen Kung and Lieyan Kung are the same. If he practices, his martial arts achievements will never break through to the spring realm in this lifetime.
Zhou'er, one thing you must remember is that no dynasty can maintain its long-term rule by force and war. My ideas may be contrary to the world, and I don't mind being a traitor in the eyes of others, but I really hope you don't think of me that way. , and don’t feel inferior because of it.
In addition to being ashamed of one person, your father is worthy of everything. That person is you! If we could choose again, maybe your mother and I would keep you by our side to face the challenges of fate together, but at that time, we really It can't be done!
The sky has eyes. God gave me the greatest gift before I left. It sounds really greedy. I have obviously fulfilled my wish, but I still can't help but want to hear you call "Father" with my own ears... Forget it, I'm leaving. , Zhou'er, don't pay attention to the shallow opinions of the world. Just do whatever you want to do boldly. The greatest ambition in the world is a man's ambition. Farewell, see you in the next life!
He Qingshan]
The handwriting in the second half of the letter was extremely sloppy and rarely dipped in ink. The three characters He Qingshan signed at the end were like a ball of withered grass. He Qizhou imagined what kind of will He Qingshan relied on to write this letter.
"The child is unfilial, father, father -" He Qizhou didn't know how he finished reading the letter, he only felt that the sky and the earth were dark before his eyes.
At the foot of the towering Yin Mountain, in the southwest corner of the huge imperial mausoleum, a man collapsed on the ground and called out the word "father". The cry was so low that it was hoarse and gradually became inaudible...
End of Volume Seven
I finally finished writing the volume "Love and Parting", which was quite painful.
All living beings have less happiness and more suffering. They are born, old, sick and die, resentful and hateful, parted from love, and unable to seek what they want. The seven kinds of suffering accompany life, but happiness is always short-lived. However, only with suffering can there be happiness. Therefore, although I don’t like bitter love dramas, I know that not many people like to watch them.
It is a painful drama, but in order to make the plot more full, make the logic more reasonable, and make the final volume more enjoyable, a lot of words were spent on making He Qizhou feel "lonely".
In fact, the tragedy of the previous generation was determined during the outline design, and this is a link that cannot be bypassed. Although He Qingshan, his wife and He Lian are not mentioned much in the whole book, they are three very important characters. The former makes
He Qizhou had a unique gene and identity, and the other made He Qizhou's filial piety and kindness.
Just like most fatherly and maternal love in the world, strong family love is always difficult to let go of. This volume has always wanted to highlight the word "family love" and make readers cry. It is not afraid of making people laugh when it is said.
As I read, I shed tears a few times.
The kind of morbidity that He Qingshan writes about is completely based on his long-ill father. Unfortunately, he did not wait until he finished the book. People want to be filial but do not wait for relatives. Through the passages in the book, I would like to send them to my father in heaven. I also hope that all the children in the world will
, always have a grateful heart.
The eighth volume is called [Heaven and Earth Cheng]. I will not spoil other aspects. The original intention of each volume is better than the last remains unchanged. Regardless of whether it has been achieved before, what is certain is that this volume will definitely be the whole book.
The most beautiful volume of the book! Believe me, it’s true.
Finally, I am very, very grateful to the readers who have subscribed to the official version, and to the friends who have provided encouragement and pertinent opinions. I hope to get more support from you! See you in the eighth volume!
