Chapter 144 72 Reminiscing about the past (2)
"Well, nanny, I like this place very much." Lu Junlan looked at the scenery in front of him, and said involuntarily, with longing in his eyes.

"Ma'am, it's okay to visit again when you have a chance."

"That's right, Auntie, it's fine if you like to live here all the time." Li Ran looked at her yearning eyes, no matter how beautiful it is, it's just appearances, and no one has anything to hide.

"Auntie, I'll take you to other places." Li Ran stood up and pointed to the shed on the other side of the river. "Auntie, why don't you go and see our vegetable field."

"Well, good." Lu Junlan calmed down and followed with a smile.

in the study.

"These years...hey..." Su Xi wanted to say something, but choked up again.

"Uncle, it's okay. I've lived a good life these years. It's you, Uncle, who suffered so much." At noon, Su Xi said that when he joined the army, he encountered a lot of hardships. Fortunately, he was appreciated by the general. It is only through promotion that one can achieve what he is today.

"Su Bai, how did your mother... go?" Su Xi was thinking about what words to use to describe the early death of his most beloved sister. After thinking about it for a long time, he only said the most feeble words. words.

"Mother and I have been in poor health since we came here, and have been ill for a long time." Su Bai thought about his own powerlessness, his weakness and incompetence, and hated how he would allow his mother to drag his sick body away from treatment.

Su Bai couldn't help clenching his fists as he thought about it.

"Xiaoyue...your father..." Su Xi has been a general for too long, so he speaks directly, but now he is afraid that asking directly will make Su Bai unhappy.

Su Bai smiled indifferently, and told Su Xi everything.

"Qujia? Qujia in the capital."

"Yes."

"Why is it the Qu family again?" Su Xi couldn't help but sigh.

Su Bai saw that Su Xi seemed very dissatisfied with the Qu family. "Uncle, what's the matter?"

"You also know that I was recalled to the capital by the emperor, who said that I had worked hard and made great achievements, and let me go back to Beijing to live my life, but in fact, it was just that I was afraid that my achievements would overwhelm the Lord, so I was imprisoned in the capital in disguise. The queen is also the daughter of the Patriarch of the Qu family, and she plays a good hand of cards, and is deeply loved by the emperor, and now she has named the son born to Queen Qu as the crown prince. Hehe, the Qu family is now overwhelmed by one hand."

The current emperor is the son of Concubine Qu.

Su Bai was far away from the temple, so of course he didn't know about these things.

"The emperor summoned me back, appointed me a idle general, and sent his cronies to the border. Presumably the Qu family discovered my relationship with Xiaoyue." Su Xi thought.

"My mother never told him about you?" Su Bai couldn't figure it out.

"It's very easy for a composer to know these things." Su Xi laughed dumbfounded.

"Then why did my mother leave?" Su Bai had never thought of getting in touch with the Qu family in depth before, nor had he thought of exploring what happened that day.

"What happened 13 years ago?" Su Bai muttered to himself.

"13 years ago." Su Xi seemed to think of something, his pupils dilated.

Su Bai noticed Su Xi's strangeness, "Uncle, what's wrong?"

"13 years ago, the prince fell into the lotus pond in the imperial garden and drowned. The queen was bedridden because of this, and Concubine Qu was in charge of the harem."

Su Bai couldn't help being frightened when he heard this, could it be that his mother ran back in such a hurry after hearing or seeing something, and then took him away in a panic?

Su Bai thought for a while, "Uncle, even if these things happen, it has nothing to do with us."

"It doesn't matter, but it's also related. The deceased prince's foreign family is also one of the best big families in the capital. They have been fighting against the Qu family for a long time. The Ouyang family knows that the Qu family did it, but there is no evidence, so they have to give up. If they know about your mother, because you heard If you run away because of something, you will definitely be pursued." Su Xi knew the grievances of the big family.

"My mother has passed away, even if I know about it, it won't help." Su Bai sneered.

"If they know you and your mother exist, do you think the Qu family will make it easier for you?" Su Xi narrowed his eyes slightly, watching snowflakes falling outside the door again, "Northern wind blows wild geese and snow."

Su Xi's sudden sentence made Su Bai laugh dumbfounded.

"Maybe they already know." Su Xi paused and continued: "Your aunt's father, Lu Xuan, a great Confucian, also died in their original dispute."

Su Xi seemed to recall that he went back to Yuncheng to visit his relatives after the victory, but when he returned home, he found out the sad news that his parents had already passed away, and that his younger sister had gone to the capital to join relatives.

After paying homage to his parents, Su Xi went to the capital to look for his younger sister. On the way, he met Lu Junlan. After failing to find his younger sister, he went to the border again. Finding Su Yue was what Su Xi had always wanted.

Now that he has found it, he hastily came, and what he might bring, Su Xi was very annoyed.

"Uncle, it's nothing, let everything take its course." Seeing that Su Xi was upset, Su Bai was relieved.

"Well, I'll go see your mother tomorrow." Su Xi only said that. "When I passed by Yuncheng, I renovated your grandmother's grave, and I want to take your mother back with me."

"Uncle, there's no need. Mother likes the tranquility here, so I don't want her to suffer anymore." Su Bai vaguely remembered that Mother was holding him, counting the stars in the sky, and listening to the sound of frogs in the rice fields.Such a gentle voice is always recalled in her mind, she often said that she likes to look at the sky like this, and likes the tranquility here.

Seeing that Su Bai was unwilling, Su Xi no longer insisted.
