Chapter 113 From now on, I can only watch her from afar (Extra 2)
After hearing what the brother and sister said, Liaochen just held their hands and chanted a Buddhist name, and then said nothing more.
"Ah! Why is it this sound!" The girl still sounded surprised.
The boy was well versed in medicine and when he saw the large burn marks on the other person's face, he roughly knew the reason. He did not say it to her face, but pulled his sister to follow his mother's footsteps and continued to walk down the mountain.
Watching the two people gradually walk away, Lechen dared to stand up and look at their backs.
With a sigh in his heart, he could only recall the past by looking at her back. After all, everything in the past had disappeared.
He is Lechen, not Xiao Ji, the former son of Duke Xiao who had died in the fire.
After he was deposed from the throne, he and his mother were sent to a farm in the suburbs. Life there was extremely harsh, and it was there that he learned cooking.
A few years later, he heard the news of his father's death, but on the night he wanted to return home to pay his respects, a fire inexplicably broke out in Zhuangzi.
His mother had suffered a stroke at that time and could not escape at all, but he luckily escaped from the scene and was rescued by monks from Dayuan Temple.
The last piece of news we got was: On the second day after Duke Xiao's death, his wife Xiao Meng and his eldest son Xiao Ji committed suicide by burning themselves to be buried with him.
As a person who grew up in a wealthy family, he certainly understood that this was someone who didn't want to live anymore. With nowhere else to go, he became a monk in Dayuan Temple.
After living here for many more years, Liaochen occasionally learned from a fellow apprentice that on the first and fifteenth day of every month, Xie Jingshu would go to the Taoist temple opposite to make donations.
Therefore, whenever he had time, he would deliberately take a look, as if only by seeing that the other person was living well could he be sure that those past events really existed, and that he was once the glorious prince of the Duke's Mansion, Xiao Ji.
Just as I was sighing with emotion, I saw a little Taoist pointing at me and exclaiming, "Master, Master, the monk from the kitchen next door is here again. Is he here to learn how to cook vegetarian dishes?"
Lechen shrank back, lowered his head, turned around and limped back.
The friendship between the monarch and his subjects
On the day Xie Linyuan's father passed away, he was already the father of three children. Kneeling in front of the mourning hall, he cried like a child.
When his wife Lu Qingqiu looked at the "tough guy with a soft heart" and didn't know how to persuade him, Emperor Qianxuan came to Xie's house incognito with his personal eunuch.
"Madam Xie, please leave first! I will persuade him." Emperor Qianxuan also had a sad face. In fact, compared with the late emperor, Xie Wei who had just passed away was more like the father in his mind.
He would take Xie Linyuan to the suburbs to fly kites, beat Xie Linyuan when he did something wrong, and would also personally cook a bowl of longevity noodles for his son on his birthday.
After all, Xie Linyuan's mother died early!
This was something that had never happened between the father and son of the Tian family. It was as if if he did something wrong, the only one who would be punished would be Xie Linyuan.
However, Xie Linyuan was only punished once. After all, no matter what, he ran fast enough, faster than all the prince's companions, and even faster than himself, the crown prince.
Others just run away, but Xie Linyuan runs away by climbing over the wall.
Later, after ascending the throne, in order to reassure everyone and to show his loyalty, Xie Wei asked for permission to guard the late emperor's mausoleum.
In fact, he didn't want the other party to go, but he had to go because he still had to use Xie Linyuan's help.
It’s just that Xie Wei has been gone for many years, and when we saw him again, he was already in this mourning hall.
Emperor Qianxuan took a painting from the eunuch beside him, walked into the mourning hall, and waved his hand for others to leave.
"Linyuan, I brought you a gift." Emperor Qianxuan handed the painting in his hand to Xie Linyuan, "This is a painting of the old general by a court painter based on memory. Just keep it as a souvenir!"
Xie Linyuan looked up at Emperor Qianxuan, and couldn't help but stand up and rushed over to hug him: "Brother, I don't even have a father anymore."
Emperor Qianxuan froze, and habitually wanted to scold him, but after hearing the word "brother" that he hadn't heard for many years, he softened his heart and patted him on the back, comforting him: "It's okay, you still have your brother!"
Thinking of the little boy he had met for the first time, who risked his life several times to save him and had always kept his promise, Emperor Qianxuan was moved and said, "Linyuan, it's okay. As long as I'm here, no one can bully you."
Xie Linyuan also came back to his senses at this time, realizing what he had just done. He immediately knelt in front of Emperor Qianxuan with a look of panic: "I was so rude just now!"
"This is not the first time you have been disrespectful. I am used to it." Emperor Qianxuan smiled and squatted in front of Xie Linyuan and said, "Let's take a look. Does this portrait look like him?"
The two of them unfolded the painting together. Xie Linyuan looked at it for a long time before hesitating, "The skin is too dark. My father doesn't like it."
"But his skin is originally dark!" Emperor Qianxuan held his forehead, but after seeing Xie Linyuan's expression, he could only say, "Okay! I'll have someone paint him a new one, but they can only try to change it to red, it can't be completely white."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Xie Linyuan kowtowed to Emperor Qianxuan as a token of gratitude, and then he suddenly whispered, "Your Majesty, when the day comes for me, please remember to have someone paint me brighter."
Emperor Qianxuan was displeased: "If you keep talking nonsense, I will have someone throw ink at you."
A few days later, Xie Linyuan received a repainted portrait of his father, but this time it was stamped with the seal of Emperor Qianxuan - the big "wisdom" looks like "foolishness".
