Xie Yifeng's expression is stiff. He feels like a cavity of hot blood. He has poured a bucket of cold water on his head. His mouth moves, but he doesn't dare to speak falsely.

Candle shadow, axe sound?! Is the official language Bai afraid that the name of "Huang Pao Jia Shen" is not right and wrong, and that the reputation will be questioned by the world and disputed by later generations?!

It is also possible that

Ah, if the official language is as arrogant as the son of Xiao, and is not in the view of unexpected people, it will be much easier!

It's a pity that both officials are modest and modest, but they don't understand that a gentleman is incompetent

Xie Yifeng frowned slightly, and then he listened to the official language and said, "Xie Yifeng, this Marquis still has important affairs. If you have nothing to do, you can retire."

How could Xie Yifeng willingly return without success and try to persuade him again, but in the end he kept silent.

Don't be eager for quick success and instant benefit!

He said to himself in his heart that at the beginning of the prince of xiyeda, he was eager for quick success and instant benefit. He did not get the trust of guanyubai as expected, but alienated him.

Nowadays, there are so many talented people under the command of the official language Bai. I can't make mistakes again and again!

Xie Yifeng finally bowed down.

When he came out of the imperial study, he walked forward, looking back carefully at what he had just said. He thought that he had said it very well. For example, in today's favorable place and favorable people, why did the official language look forward and backward and refuse to establish himself as king on the pretext of "the sound of candle shadow and axe"?!

Wait!

Xie Yifeng suddenly stopped and raised his eyes with a flash of inspiration.

What a fool he is!

According to the allusion of "the sound of candle shadow and axe", since Guan yubai said these four words, it means that he is attracted to the throne of the West night, but he still has some worries Or, he doesn't trust himself!

After all, it has been nine years since I left the army!

Nine years is enough to make an earth shaking change in a person. Nine years is enough to make a once powerful country fall under the iron hoof of guanyubai and the southern Xinjiang army. Nine years of change is too big

If he wants to win the trust of Guan yubai again and to make a show for him, he must first make contributions and do the next convincing job.

But now the overall situation of the West night is almost decided. How can he make contributions?!

Xie Yifeng suddenly walked forward, I don't know when he went to a big tree again and hit the trunk heavily.

The thick and thin trunk of the bowl suddenly vibrated violently, so the crown of the tree swayed ceaselessly, and the leaves flew down like rain

At this time, only listen to a familiar male voice from above: "Lao Xie, what's so angry about?! Don't shoot at the tree if you have a fire

Xie Yifeng was stiff all over. Looking up, he saw a young man in grey in his twenties lying lazily on a branch ten meters above the ground, looking down at Xie Yifeng with a smile.

"Popular, it's you." Xie Yifeng said with a dry smile.

Popular light to jump down from the tree, landing quietly. He shouldered Xie Yifeng and said with a smile: "Lao Xie, I see you just came out of the imperial study. Are you angry with the young master?"

Hearing this sentence, Xie Yifeng was frightened and quickly denied: "popular, don't talk nonsense!"

He shrugged his shoulders indifferently, showing a smile of "you and I know it from the bottom of my heart". He touched his chin and said, "thank you, we've been loving each other for many years. I'll tell you a truth. It's definitely your fault."

Xie Yifeng's heart suddenly kindled a fire. How could he not know that Xiao Si and popular people all seem to have been bewitched by the official language white. No matter what the official language White said, they were afraid that the young master was right.

But Xie Yifeng's face did not dare to show a cent, was planning to respond, but listen to the popularity of the way: "I said old Xie, you don't feel unconvinced."

Fengxing picked a leaf at will while talking, put it in his mouth and played a tune. He didn't seem satisfied with it. He lost it and picked another one. He continued: "don't you think about what day will be in the next few days?" Recently, the young master is in a bad mood! Do you want to hide as far as I can without looking at me? "

Xie Yifeng was stunned. He thought about it carefully. Soon, he thought of something and moved his brow. Is it

Seeing that he understood, he patted the leaves on his body and said, "since you understand, you can go back where you come from. Don't delay me taking a nap here."

Before he finished speaking, Fengxing had already climbed to the tree flexibly and took the leaf to blow his tune, leaving Xie Yifeng standing in the same place, half drooping his eyes.

The bright sunshine in spring sprinkled Xie Yifeng's face full of dross through the gap between branches and leaves, forming a strange light and shadow, which made his expression dark and unclear.

Maybe, he can do something with it!

Xie Yifeng slightly squints, eyes flash a light.

The spring breeze is slow. Even in spring, the yellow sand still flies in the West night, not like the continuous spring rain in Wangdu and southern Xinjiang.

Guan yubai is still the busiest man in the West night. The lights in the imperial study often burn out until midnightOn March 29, on this day, the official language White did not stay in the imperial study.

In a courtyard in the southeast corner of the West night palace, a large mahogany carving case has been set out. On the big case, there is a memorial tablet, as well as offerings such as melon and fruit snacks.

All of these were arranged by Guan yubai himself.

Since the Western night palace was captured, most of the palace has been abandoned, and this courtyard is no exception.

Around the flowers, branches and leaves are not pruned, leaves dust is not swept, a glance swept, a desolate.

After lighting a good candle with white official language, he lifted his robe and knelt on the ground directly.

Small four stands not far away, looks at him quietly, the face is expressionless, the eye ground releases light sadness.

In the courtyard, there is no sound. There is only the sound of the candle jumping in the wind, and the smell of fragrant candle is floating around with the wind

I don't know how long later, the sound of the fallen leaves being trampled suddenly came from the rear. Although it was very subtle, it couldn't hide Xiao Si's ears. Xie Yifeng, dressed in green robes, was walking towards here. He obviously didn't intend to hide his whereabouts.

Xie Yifeng stopped at the place less than ten steps away from Xiaosi and said in a deep voice: "I remember today is my wife's life taboo?! I want to go over and kowtow to my wife. "

Small four did not say anything, just one side of the body, as if to get out of the way.

Xie Yifeng walked slowly to Guan yubai's body and looked at his thin back. From his back, he could hardly recognize that this was the official general who was in the west of Xinjiang, and was stained with blood and armor.

Guan yubai did not move, and Xie Yifeng did not know whether he had noticed his arrival. After a moment of hesitation, he knelt down directly behind the right side of guanyubai, and then kowtowed three times to the direction of the memorial tablet.

Xie Yifeng looks at the tablet on the desk, his eyes are dark and deep.

On March 29, all the officers and soldiers knew that this day was the birthday of the wife. Once on this day of every year in the western Xinjiang, the official Ruyan would accompany his wife in the general's mansion. On this day, unless there was some urgent military situation, no one would go to the general's mansion

The scenes in the western Xinjiang flashed through his mind. Sometimes, Xie Yifeng couldn't help thinking, if the emperor was as talented as the first emperor, would the government and army not have gone to that step, and he would not have been forced to choose another Ming Lord!

After kneeling for a long time, Xie Yifeng opened his mouth and said, "little general, the ground is cold. You should pay attention to your body, otherwise your wife will not be able to rest in heaven."

Official language white still kneels there motionless, silent.

Finally, Xie Feng finally made up his mind to find a deep breath

This time, the official language white finally had some reaction, the thin back slightly trembled, looked up to the tablet on the desk.

Xie Yifeng's heart beat faster and faster. His voice seemed to be murmuring to himself. His voice was broken in the wind: "in those days, I knew I couldn't persuade my father, so I had to settle my mother first and follow my father to Wangdu But after that, my father and uncle died, and my mother died. At that time, I was still a prisoner at the bottom of the steps, and I was trapped in the prison. When I got out of the trap, my mother's bones had already disappeared... "

Xie Yifeng in the rear secretly breathed a sigh of relief and continued: "little general, if you can let your wife and the general bury together..."

Before his voice dropped, a strong wind suddenly blew, and two clusters of candles on the confession table jumped up and went out, leaving only two wisps of green smoke flying

Xie Yifeng only felt a chill in his heart, and his hair was counted down. He took a deep breath and was at once composed. What ghosts and gods do people believe in? What reincarnation do people believe in? These people who are used to seeing life and death and all kinds of life on the battlefield do not believe it. If there is God, how can the officials be so!

Official language white eyes in that extinguished candle wick to stay for a moment, then finally slowly stood up.

He turned to look at Xie Yifeng, that pair of warm eyes at first looked calm, but seemed to have the power to see through the hearts of the people.

Xie Yifeng said in a hurry: "little general, the last general has been remembering the general and his wife all these years. He is very anxious to learn that his wife's bones have not been found, so he has been trying to find out It was not until not long ago that I got some news. I originally wanted to tell the little general after confirmation, so as not to make the major general's air happy... "

Said, Xie Yifeng's eyes have been a red, flashing tears.

He took a deep breath and calmed himself. Then he continued: "today is my wife's life taboo. At the end of the day, I can't suppress the sadness in my heart, so I rashly open my mouth..."

The official language white thin lip light purses, straight Leng Leng ground looking at Xie Yifeng, seems to have a moment of trance, a moment later, the eyes again have focus, slowly, almost laboriously said: "where is the mother's remains?"

Xie Yifeng held his fist and said, "general huishao, it's in the suburb of jadeite city in the east of Xiye..."

Hearing the speech, the white fists of the official language were tightly clenched into fists. The blue veins on the back of the white hands were protruding one by one, and the pupil was even more unstoppable.In a moment, he said decisively, "we'll start tomorrow morning."

"Yes, little general." Xie Yifeng hurried to accept the order, secretly pleased: he did it right this time. Guan yubai is a dutiful son, and has always been clear about rewards and punishments. This time, as long as the remains of his wife can be found, Guan yubai will surely record his credit.

In the future, he must be his confidant!

"Little general, then I will go back to prepare." Xie Yifeng repressed the joy in his heart and turned to retreat.

Official language white still stands in place, small four has been quietly accompanied by one side, silent.

Another breeze blowing, blowing the fallen leaves all over the ground, flying around the robe corners of the master and servant

The desolate courtyard seems to be more and more desolate

In the early morning of the next day, at dawn, Guan yubai, Xie Yifeng, Si Lin, Xiao Si, and Feng Xing all rode out of the east gate of the West night capital, heading east.

The horse's hooves were flying and galloping all the way. After two days' driving, they came to the Emerald City.

Xie Yifeng led the way, and all the way to the eastern suburb of feicui city.

After the defeat of the army in tahai, Xiye Dongjing was soon captured by Yao lianghang and Han Huaijun. Today, the East frontier is full of depression, and there are few people walking outside The farther away from the Emerald City, the more desolate it will be. I don't know how long it took to see a disorderly burial mound. Even if it is hundreds of feet apart, you can also see the tombstones on the hill

As they approached the mound, it seemed that the air around them was getting colder and colder. The sky above was cloudy and cloudy, which made the atmosphere more and more strange and gloomy.

At the foot of the mountain, they abandoned their horses and walked.

On the mound, it was originally the tomb of a ghost. Naturally, there was no road to be built. There were only a few muddy paths that the people who came here to dump their bodies walked out year after year.

At dusk, the misty mist diffuses around like a gauze. Everywhere you can see is the uneven tombstone. From time to time, you can also see a section of forest bones scattered in the soil.

On the hillock, the cold wind gusts, blowing on the old pine trees, making a "Susu" sound, like something hiding in a dark corner whispering, surrounded by a thick smell of corpse and decay, making people sick.

However, the official language white few people are not affected at all, they have seen more cruel corpses in the battlefield, thousands of miles, bleeding. They used to collect the corpses and dig graves for their comrades in arms To them, this mound is just a place to live after death!

It's very quiet all around. Only the sound of their shoes stepping on the broken stones and leaves seems to amplify their breath

When they reached the middle of the mountain, Xie Yifeng suddenly stopped, looked around for half a circle, and said in a deep voice:

"at that time, the major general arranged good people to escort their wives to Fengji City, but later, his wife lost track of him more than ten miles away from Fengji city Therefore, at the end of the expedition, it took a lot of effort to find out where Madame was captured by a group of Western night army. At that time, the general of Xiye wanted to take his wife back and ask him for meritorious service to humiliate the general and the general, but his wife was soft and tough inside, unwilling to be humiliated, so she killed herself with a knife! At that time, the corpse was left on the roadside. The people of Xiye nearby picked up the corpse by chance and buried them on the mound... "

At the moment, even the usual popular laughing and cursing face has no smile, red eyes, between the description of indignation.

Xie Yifeng pointed his hand to the right front, and said, "little general, I have inquired about it. Some corpses thrown into the mound nine years ago should be near that area..."

Along the direction he pointed to, you can see a strong old pine with long beard on the top of the mountain. It is luxuriant and winding up. In the light fog, the branches look ferocious.

Under the gloomy atmosphere around, the white eyes of the official language became more and more deep, and there was nothing unusual about his face.

The more calm the official language is, the more worried they are of Si Lin and Xiao Si.

Si Lin ordered a few people to take out a prepared shovel, iron hoe, etc., to the old pine as the center of the action.

There are not many tombstones around, but there are many uplifted tombstones, most of which are nameless bones. Avoid those with tombstones and new tombs with wet soil. Without digging for a while, several corpses were dug out one after another, including men's, young children's, and old people's, which obviously do not match Most of the bones were immediately removed.

Unconsciously, the surrounding gradually dark down, the temperature then dropped, as if back to the severe winter.

Xiao Si quickly put on a cloak for Guan yubai. At the same time, several oil lamps were lit one after another, and the orange flame leaped like a cluster of ghost fire on this shady mass grave

Guan yubai has never left. Other people are determined to dig and dig holes one after another With the depth of the night, there are more and more caves around. The stars in the night sky are covered by clouds, and only a faint silver moon overlooks belowIt's been a long night, with every hope and disappointment

The moon is fading away, and the chirping of chickens from afar symbolizes the beginning of a new day.

The sky showed a fish belly white again, and suddenly heard Xie Yifeng cry out excitedly: "jade bracelet, this jade bracelet..."

This messy words let Si Lin, Xiao Si and Feng Xing quickly throw away the utensils in their hands and surround them with the official language white.

After a busy night, Xie Yifeng was already sweating, and his black bore face was stained with a lot of soil, which seemed to be in a mess. A three foot hole was dug in front of him. At the bottom of the hole, there was a white bone wrist with a jade bracelet on it

Guan yubai stood in front of the cave, staring at the hand bone which had already lost its flesh and blood. Even if the jade bracelet was buried under the earth for many years, it made people green and oily, and was deeply reflected in the pupil of Guan yubai.

The green is so familiar to him

It was his birthday present to his mother when he was ten years old, and she always wore it on her hand.

Even if nine years apart, he will never forget!

The official language white suddenly kneels on the ground, carefully turns that green bracelet, slender finger slightly trembles.

Little by little

Soon, a thin crack on the jade bracelet came into his view.

Yes, this is the bracelet he gave his mother!

On the day after he gave the jade bracelet to his mother, a tributary arrow shot at her, and he immediately threw her away. However, Liushi still brushed against her wrist. Fortunately, she did not hurt her, but left a crack on the jade bracelet

At that time, he was upset and wanted to send his mother a jade bracelet again, but his mother said with a gentle smile that he had given her the jade bracelet to protect her! She will always wear it in her hand!

Mother's gentle and loving smile seems to be still fresh in memory, but now only a pale skeleton and this jade bracelet are left.

The white eyes of the official language were slightly widened. They were as deep as the bottomless abyss, staring at the crack less than an inch long on the jade bracelet.

Time seems to stop in this moment, the air stagnates, the temperature around suddenly becomes cold, cold to the bone

The next moment, the official language white suddenly moved again, he directly used his hands to dig down, again and again His face was expressionless. However, the movement of his fingers picking up the soil quickly showed the ups and downs of his heart. He was crazy and showed a trace of caution, as if he were afraid of hurting the white bones

No one tried to persuade him or stop him. He had to do it himself!

Si Lin, Xiao Si and Feng Xing all silently look at Guan yubai, his resolute back like pine and cypress, his fingernails accidentally split, and his fingertips exude blood

For a moment, Si Lin almost thought that the official language white cry, but then look at it, he is still that even if the official downfall, even if the official snow injustice is still indomitable official language white!

Perhaps, the language white tears long ago the official family's passing away and dried up.

The dead bones buried in the soil are gradually exposed, from the wrist to the upper arm to the body to the head
