Daughter of the Prince of Rebirth

Chapter 566 Murong An Returns Mu Xuelian Becomes an Army Concubine (1)
Zhongyong Hou's Mansion is not far from Zuiqing Building, when Murong Xiu returned to Hou's Mansion, it was not too late, he refused the help of his servants, and walked to the room alone.

After Aunt Ma and Aunt Zhang passed away, Murong Xiu lived in his and Xie Zixin's Bauhinia Garden. It was winter, and the bauhinia flowers were all withered and spread all over the garden. Very dizzy and desperately need a rest.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a slender figure with his back turned to him, standing in front of the bauhinia flower, Murong Xiu woke up instantly, and angrily shouted: "Who is it? How dare you break into Zhongyonghou's mansion in the middle of the night!"

The man didn't speak, and turned around slowly, slowly, the familiar face, familiar eyes, and familiar smile made Murong Xiu choke suddenly: "You...you are..."

"Father!" the man called softly, with a bright smile.

"An'er...you're not dead!" Murong Xiu was shocked, and he couldn't believe what he saw.

Murong An's smile was bright, faint, with an unfathomable weirdness: "Yes, Dad, I'm not dead, I'm back, do you still remember this gift you gave me?"

Murong An raised his arm, and a white and round jade pendant carved with simple patterns appeared in front of his eyes. Murong Xiu's eyes lit up. This jade pendant is a family heirloom of Murong's family. It was given to him when Murong An was ten years old. Amulet for Murong An...

"An'er, it's really you!" Murong Xiu was ecstatic, and ran over quickly, wanting to hug Murong An, who never thought that wherever his arm went, Murong An would disappear in an instant, looking around, it was pitch black , empty...

He was still there just now, where did he go?In the darkness, Murong Xiu looked around anxiously: "An'er, An'er..." The lost and found child, he didn't want to lose him again, but no matter how he called, Murong An never appeared again, as if he had been captured by the darkness. devour.

"An'er!" Murong Xiu exclaimed, opened his eyes suddenly, and sat up. Outside the window, the bright sunlight shone through the latticed window onto the floor of the house. A sense of melancholy rose in my heart: I was dreaming, but the dream was very real, as if it really happened...

Alas, An'er is already dead, so how could he come back? During the day, I was thinking too much, so I have such a dream at night!
He tilted his body, wanting to lie down and rest for a while, when his arm pressed against a hard object, Murong Xiu picked it up casually, the white jade pendant was shining warmly in the sunlight, Murong Xiu's slightly narrowed eyes instantly Yuan opened his eyes and exclaimed: "Come on, come on!" It wasn't a dream just now, An'er, I really came here!

"Big brother isn't dead?" Murong Yu was called back to the Zhongyonghou Mansion, and he couldn't believe what Murong Xiu said: "Six years ago, the bodies of my brother and mother were buried by my father."

Murong Xiu sighed: "Six years ago, the corpses of Zixin and An'er were stabbed by random swords beyond recognition. I recognized their corpses based on their clothes and accessories..." In other words, he buried There were only two corpses wearing his wife's and children's clothes, their faces were scratched, and it was not certain that they were Xie Zixin and Murong An.

"At that time, I was distraught, and I didn't have the mood to investigate further. Now that I think about it, there doesn't seem to be this jade pendant on An'er's body!" The white heirloom jade pendant reflected a gentle light under the sunlight. .

Many years have passed since she was ten years old, and Murong Yu doesn't remember exactly what happened back then, but she only vaguely remembers that after the bodies of her mother and brother were brought back, the maids and nurses changed her into plain mourning clothes and taught her to kneel in the mourning hall. , but she was not allowed to get close to the two coffins, because she was young, and she was afraid that she would be scared when she saw the corpses.

"Father, what did your brother look like when you saw him? Did you recognize him first, or did he call you first?" When Murong An passed away, he was only 12 years old. If he was alive, he would have been eighteen or nineteen, six or seven years old. As time goes by, his appearance will definitely change, it is impossible for Murong Xiu to recognize him at a glance.

"This... I don't remember very clearly..." When Murong Xiu came back, he had already drank too much alcohol, his mind was not particularly clear, and he had another night of hangovers. He only remembered a rough idea of ​​what happened yesterday.

"Why didn't that brother come to meet us?" It wasn't that Murong Yu insisted on being suspicious of Murong An, but that his appearance was too coincidental, the rebellion had subsided for four or five years, Murong An didn't come sooner or later , but it happened when the Murong people objected to Xie Qingyang's adoption. No matter how you think about it, things are strange.

Murong Xiu held the jade pendant, his eyes were kind and kind: "Perhaps, your brother has some difficulties and it is not convenient for us to recognize you for the time being!"

"Father, is this heirloom for sale in the world?" The jade pendant is as white as jade, like a drop of tears, and its shape is not special. If there is one for sale in the shop, this jade pendant can be faked.

"There are indeed such jade pendants in the shop, but those are imitations. Our Murong family's family heirloom is the only one. There is a very thin crack on it. It was accidentally dropped by your brother when he was 11 years old. There will never be a second..."

Murong Yu smiled, and said in a solemn tone: "Father, it's not that I'm suspicious. I always feel that my brother who has been dead for many years suddenly appears, which is a bit unrealistic!"

Murong Xiu was stunned, and put away the jade pendant: "I understand your concerns, don't worry, I will definitely investigate this matter seriously, and there will never be any ignorance again!" If An'er is really alive It's the best, but if someone pretends to be An'er to design him, he will never forgive him lightly.

"Murong An came back alive, why are you not half-joyed, but worried?" Murong Yu walked out from behind the screen with a body full of heat, Ouyang Shaoxian took a cotton handkerchief, and gently wiped some wet silk for her.

"Back then, the robbers who killed my mother and elder brother were very vicious. Do you think my 12-year-old elder brother can survive in that situation?" What's more, all the bodies have been found, and they are in the wilderness. I want to find someone to share with him. It is not easy to replace the corpse of a child of similar age and shape.

"There is no absolute in everything. Your mother is among the people who accompany you. When facing death, a mother's love is great. It is not impossible for her to protect her son!"
