Chapter 123 - You Are an Old Friend of Mine
Bai Aoxue looked at the dying woman and nodded.
In fact, the poison in the woman could be detoxified. Maybe she didn’t want to live long ago, so she left herself to her fate.
“You are waiting for him to come back, aren’t you?” Bai Aoxue looked at the woman and asked lightly.
The woman slightly stunned for a moment after she listened to Bai Aoxue’s words, and her face became paler.
“I’m not waiting for anybody. No one will come.” The woman smiled bitterly and said indifferently as she looked at the cloudless and breezy sky.
But Bai Aoxue heard disappointment, or despair, in her words.
“Was it you who named the three children?” Bai Aoxue asked softly.
The woman nodded and said slowly: “I called my apprentice Tiance, Qi Tiance since he was a child. Now I don’t know where he is or if he has realized his ambition. If … if you can meet him, remember to tell him for me… ”
“Why do you believe that I will take care of the three children for you? And why do you think I’ll meet your apprentice?” Bai Aoxue stared at the woman and asked with some doubts.
After the woman listened to Bai Aoxue’s words, her eyes were slightly curved, and then said slowly: “I always think you are an old friend of mine. I have such feeling when I see you. If I could live a few more years, I’d be happy to drink and chat with you. I would dig out the peach blossom wine I buried and get drunk with you for thousands of times.”
After Bai Aoxue listened to the woman’s words, her eyes were somewhat out of focus, and her ears echoed with what the woman had said.
With a smile on her lips, Bai Aoxue said noncommittally: “Since you believe me, I’ll help you once, although there is no remuneration.”
“Tell the three children for me. My name is Helian Cangyue. In return, those jars of peach blossom wine that I buried in the past years …are all yours. If you can find…Tiance… “The woman smiled quietly, and her eyes closed gently.
Before she closed her eyes, she saw in a trance that under the peach blossom tree in that year, she faced upward and drank the cup of tea, and said: “After drinking your tea, I will be your master. The world is dangerous. You and I will be of one mind and go shoulder to shoulder.”
The young man looked up timidly and nodded at her.
The laddish cheek was full of hope and perturbed.
Back in time, the youth backpacked and left her step by step with his horse. On the way through the dust, he didn’t see her waiting figure behind him.
“Finally, we got separated…”
In the March, such a gorgeous woman met her old friend in the last period of her life and died quietly without concern.
The peach blossoms fell all over the ground outside. Each of them was beautiful.
Bai Aoxue sat quietly beside the woman. The breeze blew through, carrying peach blossoms into the house.
Bai Aoxue lifted her hand gently and took over the peach blossom. She looked out of the window.
“Helian Cangyue. All the way well. “Her light words were full of relief.
For such a woman, perhaps the mortal world was just the bondage that held her back…
Bai Aoxue rose, patted the corner of her dress and took out her handkerchief and lightly covered the face of Helian Cangyue.
Peach blossoms were also embroidered on the handkerchief.
Turning around, Bai Aoxue opened the ramshackle wooden door. And her face was as calm as it was at the beginning without any emotional fluctuation.
“Benefactor… is she…” Moli and Moshang took a look at each other and asked timidly.
Bai Aoxue looked at the three children in front of her. Her heart was touched. Once at their age, Bai Aoxue who was in the 21st century dragged out an ignoble existence, at the same time, Bai Aoxue who was the first daughter of the Prime Minister in Chengxi Dynasty was subjected to abuse and bullying.
This was fate. Good and bad were both depended on oneself.
“She said that her name is Helian Cangyue.” Bai Aoxue looked at the three children who had hopeful eyes and said softly.
When the three children heard, they sobbed sadly, and it sounded very anguished. Everyone would be sad to hear that.
Bai Aoxue looked at the three children and said calmly with mild dignity: “Listen. The nature is unkind, it treats the creation like sacrificial straw-dogs; the the Sage is unkind, he treats the people like sacrificial straw-dogs. You will grow up one day and understand that all things in the world are like this. There will always be life and death. You can’t stop it. The only thing you can do is to firmly grasp what you have now and never let go! ”
All three children stopped crying and looked at Bai Aoxue blankly.
“Now you have the right to choose. You can continue to live at underclass and drag out an ignoble existence or follow me and become a man of honor one day.” Bai Aoxue looked at the three children indifferently, with no sadness or joy in her eyes.
The three children looked down at the ground and then at each other, peeping at each other face to face. Bai Aoxue did not urge.
“Benefactor… we’ll follow you. Someday we will raise our head and tell my sister that we can really make money to support ourselves.” Moshang was the eldest, he looked up at Bai Aoxue with bright piercing eyes and said.
Bai Aoxue gently raised her hand, slightly bent down, and held the three children in her arms. She said lightly: “Being alive is better than anything. You should grow up.”
After hearing Bai Aoxue’s words, the three children who had stopped their tears finally became uncontrollable and burst into tears.
The sufferings of all these years, the death of the woman who was regarded as their relative, all the pain were released at the moment.
Bai Aoxue patted the backs of the three children and sighed a little in her heart.
Helian Cangyue. I’ll take care of these three children for you. But when will the old friend return?
After the three children stopped crying, Bai Aoxue turned her head and said lightly: “Zhao.”
In a flash, he appeared in front of Bai Aoxue and said respectfully: “Your Princess, what can I do for you?”
“I’m going to trouble you this time. Take them to deal with the funeral of Helian Cangyue. Make it simple. I don’t think Helian Cangyue wanted to waste a lot. “Bai Aoxue said slowly as she watched Zhao.
Zhao nodded and said: “I’ll obey your command.”
“You and this uncle will come to the General’s mansion to visit me in a moment.” Bai Aoxue looked at the three of them.
The three children nodded together.
After dealing with this, Bai Aoxue turned to look at Jun Yeyan who had been waiting for her quietly.
“Since you have done that, let’s go now.” Jun Yeyan raised his hand and stroked Bai Aoxue’s head, saying softly.
“Okay!” Bai Aoxue smiled brightly and walked toward Jun Yeyan.
The three children watched Bai Aoxue and Jun Yeyan leave.
“Xue, do you know the identity of Helian Cangyue?” Asked Jun Yeyan slowly.
Bai Aoxue listened to Jun Yeyan’s words and looked sideways at Jun Yeyan: “The old friend.” She was not curious about the identity of Helian Cangyue, because she was the old friend that she made ineffably in her life. Though it was short, it was enough to remember for a lifetime.
“Have you heard of a man called Qi Tiance?” Bai Aoxue looked at Jun Yeyan and asked.
“With his single long spear, he became famous all over the world. Qi Tiance was a legend, a legend in the world. It’s a pity that the legend has already disappeared. Someone said that he had too many enemies and has already died.” Jun Yeyan thought for a moment, and his thin lips opened slightly, saying the answer Bai Aoxue needed.
Bai Aoxue listened to Jun Yeyan’s words. She was stunned for a moment.
“Do you need to find him?” Asked Jun Yeyan again.
Bai Aoxue shook her head and said softly, “No, I don’t. If we met, then it’s out fate, or we won’t meet.
Jun Yeyan said softly: “Helian Cangyue was the Miss of the governor Helian’s family in Yangzhou. At that time, Jun Wuhen made an order to kill the whole family of Helian mansion. At that time, Helian Cangyue experienced outside so she was able to escape this disaster. She had a brother named Helian Cangxi. ”
Bai Aoxue listened to Jun Yeyan’s words and frowned slightly: “The imperial edict?”
“Stir up people’s mind and seek power to rebel. At that time, Helian’s family was on the side of 2nd prince. The 2nd prince’s downfall naturally led to the calamity of Helian’s family. It’s just a stepping stone after Jun Wuhen ascended the throne. “Jun Yeyan said indifferently. It seemed that all these had nothing to do with him.
Bai Aoxue listened to Jun Yeyan’s words and thought for a while. But she missed Jun Yeyan’s appearance that he was ready to speak yet stop on a second thought.
Bai Aoxue knew that when the first emperor abdicated, five princes planned how to win the throne except for Jun Yeyan. In the end, Jun Wuhen won. 2nd prince died and the other two went to the border.
And most of all the princes’ trusted follower were executed by Jun Wuhen for various reasons.
This was the sorrow of royal.
“Let’s go. Maybe we can catch up with my uncle for breakfast.” Bai Aoxue said softly.
Jun Yeyan nodded: “Let’s hurry up then.”
Then he held Bai Aoxue up again without waiting for Bai Aoxue to speak, and the figure flashed across like lightning.
Bai Aoxue felt the wind whistling in her ear and sighed once again that Jun Yeyan always had some hidden abilities.
When they came to the backyard of the General’s mansion in a second, Bai Aoxue said with a light smile: “It’s like we’re here to steal.” Her thievish look was extremely lovely.
Jun Yeyan was finally relieved when he saw Bai Aoxue’s smile.
“Don’t worry. Uncle won’t criticize you. He just may not like me. “Jun Yeyan also followed Bai Aoxue to be thievish.
Bai Aoxue didn’t know how charming she looked at this time. Although the General’s mansion did not like 5th prince’s palace in which the jacarandas were full of the courtyard, but still there were many colorful flowers. Bai Aoxue looked gorgeous with the flowers around her.
“Let’s go. In case my uncle would not let Luoyan in, and my plan would be disrupted. ” Bai Aoxue secretly smiled and said cunningly.
How could Jun Yeyan not know Bai Aoxue’s plan. He smiled helplessly and mourned for Ye Zhaojue in his heart.
“Ha ha… It seems… I didn’t come at the right time.” A frivolous voice with a hint of banter sounded.
The eyes of Jun Yeyan suddenly became cold. He raised his hand slowly, and his sleeves seemed to be blown up by the cold wind. The atmosphere became acrimonious at the moment.
“Hoo… It’s so dangerous… Don’t get angry, 5th prince. I didn’t mean to peep. ” The man laughed again.
Bai Aoxue lifted her eyebrows and turned to look at the man in red: “Liushuang, do you have to be queer every time you come out, so you are happy?”
After Jun Yeyan listened to Bai Aoxue’s words, he raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the man and said: “The killer Liushuang?”
“It’s exactly me.” Liushuang said domineeringly, the handsome face was full of unruly.
Just as Liushuang finished speaking, the sound of the wall collapsing behind him resounded.
Bai Aoxue and Liushuang were stunned, then turned to see a large area of walls all collapsed, and the dust was all over the sky.
They both swallowed down their saliva firmly, then turned to look at the culprit who was calm.
“Who is coming?” The sound with internal force suddenly sounded from all directions!
