Abandoned woman's glory

Chapter 238
I will always remember the day I left Xuanwu Kingdom.

That day was my seventh birthday, and my father, the supreme king of Xuanwu Kingdom, held a grand banquet for me.

The entire Shangyang City has become a sea of ​​lights, the tree trunks on both sides of the street are covered with bright red ribbons, the street is full of exquisite lanterns, brilliant fireworks are blooming in the dark night sky, and even everyone's face There are excited smiles.

The bright lights made the snow-capped mountains behind Shangyang City red.

When I accepted the congratulations of the ministers and drank the first glass of wine, I looked back at the towering snow-capped mountains, but for some reason, the red light all over the mountains did not make me happy, but I felt uneasy a feeling of.

It seems that the snow mountain is bleeding.

But apart from me, no one seems to have this feeling, everyone is happy, because tonight's dad is a little different from usual, there is still no smile on his face, that handsome face is indifferent Wei, but he drank so much that no matter who came to toast, he would always come and kill the big bowl.

After drinking for three rounds, Dad patted me on the shoulder and said to me: "Feng'er, have you gone to say hello to your mother today?"

I froze for a moment, feeling even more uncomfortable in my already uncomfortable heart, and shook my head lightly.

I don't like my mother. Although this sentence may make many people shout out, but I really don't like her. I reject her from the bottom of my heart. I don't like that sick woman, and I don't like her leaving. Dad's concern.

Looking back on my thoughts at that time many years later, I can't help but find it funny. I never knew where Dad cared about me, but I naively thought that Dad would care more about me without her, but in fact, if Really without her, no one would care about me...

.

Usually, when I heard that I didn't take the initiative to say hello to my mother, my dad would always scold me with a frown, but today he didn't. He just said, "Let's go and see her together."

My heart is even more unhappy.

We went to see her together, but in fact it was Father who visited her and stayed by her bedside, the two of them didn't say anything, just looked at her for a long time quietly, and I was often excluded by the two of them, Although her eyes will always be fixed on me with a nostalgia that disgusts me.

But I still followed, as long as Father speaks, I will not disobey him.

When we walked to the side hall, the sky was completely dark, only the occasional firework blooming reddened the dark sky, casting colorful light and shadows. I followed behind Dad and saw the windows of the side hall revealing a faint light. The light flickered like a person's restlessness, but before he got close, the door opened with a creak.

The maid named Ling Si stood at the door, as if she knew we were coming and was waiting there.

"Madam has been waiting for a while, please come in."

Hearing what she said, Dad quickened his pace and walked in, and just as I passed Ling Si, I heard her softly say: "The young prince is too thinly dressed."

I glanced at her.

That resolute face still had an indifferent expression, just like every time I saw her in the past two years, it was just a little strange, she never took the initiative to talk to me, just like I hated the woman in the room, she did not do not like me.

"There is wind and snow on the grassland, the little prince should still add a dress."

"Don't worry about it."

I said coldly, turned around and walked into the side hall.

This place is still the same as usual, it is as quiet as another world, the air still has a faint fragrance of medicine, and the haggard woman is struggling to sit on the head of the bed, her hair is still neat and meticulous, and her clothes are not messy , even if she is sick, she does not hide her innate beauty.

Maybe Dad was fascinated by her like this.

I watched Dad walk over, stretched out my hand to her forehead, paused for a while, and then said: "Well, the fever has subsided." Then I sat on the side of the bed, and called me back: "Feng'er, come here."

I walked over slowly.

"Today is your birthday, come here and kowtow to your mother."

I don’t understand. On my birthday, other people kowtow to me. Why do I kowtow to her, but I can’t refuse my daddy, so I can only kneel in front of the bed and kowtow three times to her. Somewhat uncomfortable.

When she looked up at her, she still looked at me with eyes full of nostalgia and doting, and said softly: "Don't drink too much wine, it will hurt your stomach. Warm the wine before drinking it, it's not so cold. "

"Don't worry, I'll watch him and won't let him drink too much."

She glanced at Dad, but said nothing.

I also looked at Dad's back, I don't know why he was a little strange tonight, there was still no smile on that indifferent and stern face, but I could feel that there was a little more lively look in his eyes, as if there was something happy It can't stop flowing out of it.

I don't know what's going on, or what's going to happen.

After staying quietly like this for a long time, Dad finally turned around and said to me: "Feng'er, it's getting late, you should go back to rest, you have to get up early tomorrow. I hired a master from the Central Plains for you, he will Teach you some poetry grammar, go."

"Yes."

I bowed down and turned around to leave, but as soon as I got up, I saw my mother propped herself up, looking at me with an eager expression that had never been seen on her pale face, as if I didn't want to Go back to rest, but leave her like forever.

Father looked at her: "Do you have something to say to Feng'er?"

"……No."

Although she said no, she clearly had a lot to say in her eyes.

But I didn't want to hear it. When I heard her say "no", I turned around and left as if I was relieved, but just as I stepped out of the gate, I stopped subconsciously like every time I left here before. Take a look back.

She was still sitting there, her pale face looked so serene, under the flickering candlelight, it was almost transparent, but those eyes didn't see any light, they were as deep as a bottomless pool.

Then, I heard Dad say——

"Xingsi, do you still remember what you promised me two years ago?"

She looked up at Papa.

"If you forget, I can remind you."

"..."

"You promise me that if he marries a wife and has a son within two years, you will stay forever and stay by my side. You won't forget, will you?"

I stood at the door, which was the junction of cold and warm, which made me feel overwhelmed.

Who is he?
