Seven years later, Zhao Guo and Li Zhuan.

Li Zhuan's backyard is very large, and it is the height of summer, and all the flowers in the flower bed have bloomed, so that the whole backyard is filled with a refreshing fragrance.

The sound of running water was heard, but it was an artificially created stream through the flowers.

The stream flows slowly, and at a glance you can see through the water and see the silt underneath.

At this time, the smiling faces of two children, a man and a woman, dressed in luxurious clothes, about six or seven years old, were suddenly reflected on the water, these two children had big eyes, and they were extremely beautiful like rag dolls, and although the two children were of different genders, they looked very similar.

The boy was missing one of his front teeth, and he grinned with a kind of innocence.

The girl was also missing a front tooth, and when she smiled, there were two shallow dimples sunken into the sides of her cheeks.

The two children on the surface of the water glanced at each other, then picked up the windmill in their hands and laughed and walked through the flowers.

"Liang'er, Shui'er, run slowly, don't fall!" At this time, a beautiful and pleasant woman's voice came from a pavilion next to the stream.

This woman is about twenty years old, extremely beautiful, with a hint of freshness and refinement, her black green silk is coiled into a bun at the back of her head, and she is dressed as a married woman, but it is Murong Xue.

It has been seven years since she arrived in Zhao State, and when she first arrived in Zhao State seven years ago, it was more than four months since they left Surabaya City, and her belly was already big at that time, but fortunately, after Li Zhongguo returned home, she finished her family affair with Li Yaozu in less than half a month, which did not end her up with the infamy of having a child out of wedlock.

However, Murong Xue was also competitive, and gave birth to a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses for Li Yaozu in one go.

This made the Li family happy for a long time, and specially held a banquet for these two children, which was well known.

At the same time, since Li Yaozu had a wife and became a father, the string of his missing feelings was finally recovered, and his relationship with Murong Xue tended to ease.

Later, at Murong Xue's insistence, the two children and boys were named Li Liang, implying that Murong Xue was once a member of the Liang Kingdom.

And her daughter is called Li Shui'er, which means that she and Li Yaozu have formed a fate in Surabaya City.

Time can smooth out everything, and seven years have worn out Miss Murong Xue's temperament, and now she has long forgotten her hatred with Li Yaozu in her heart, and she misses their two children more and her love for Li Yaozu.

It didn't take long for Li Liang to exclaim, "Daddy is back." ”

Li Shui'er's little head also followed Li Liang's gaze, but she saw a tall and honest-looking middle-aged man walking through the corridor and towards the backyard.

"Ah, it's Daddy's back. Li Shui'er showed an excited look in her eyes, and she exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly ran up with Li Liang.

"Eh, you two slow down. Murong Xue saw that these two children were crazy, and ran towards Li Yaozu

hurriedly shouted, and then followed.

"Daddy, the boy misses you. When Li Shui'er approached Li Yaozu, she hugged Li Yaozu's thigh and said.

"Yes!" Li Yaozu picked up the two children, one in each hand, his face was still a little gloomy before, but when he saw these two children, his depressed mood was swept away, and he felt that it was enough to have the two of them for this life.

"Nonsense, my sister is obviously thinking about the candy man that her father promised to buy her. At this time, Li Liang in his arms said shortly.

"Uhh

"Hahaha, how can Daddy forget this. Li Yaozu replied with a smile, and then said, "Come on." ”

"The little one is here!" As soon as Li Yaozu's voice fell, a subordinate walked up with a golden sugar man in one hand.

As soon as Li Liang and Li Shui'er saw the sugar man, their eyes immediately glowed, and they hurriedly struggled to get off the ground to snatch the sugar man in the hands of the person, and after a while, they licked the sugar man and jumped away.

"Sir, you're back. Murong Xue smiled at the figures of the two children leaving, and then turned her head to look at Li Yaozu and smiled.

Li Yaozu looked at Murong Xue, and a strange light flashed in his eyes, and he hummed lightly, and then walked to the small pavilion by the stream.

A hint of surprise flashed on Murong Xue's face, and she followed with steps.

In the pavilion, Murong Xue and Li Yaozu sat opposite each other.

"Master, is there something wrong with coming to the backyard before taking off this official uniform?" Murong Xue poured a cup of tea for Li Yaozu and asked hesitantly.

"Hmm!" Li Yaozu nodded, looked at Murong Xue a little embarrassed, groaned slightly, and then said, "Liang Guo..." ”

Murong Xue's hand froze, and her smile stiffened on her face.

They have been living for seven years, and although Li Yaozu said two words, Murong Xue tacitly understood the meaning of Li Yaozu's words.

After a while, Murong Xue sat down gently, "You are leading the troops this time?"

"Hmm!" Li Yaozu nodded.

After a major war seven years ago, the national strength of the Liang State weakened rapidly, and now it is already in turmoil, if it were not for Murong Xiao, an important minister of the Three Dynasties who was already dying, to maintain the government, presumably the Liang State would have collapsed at this time.

On the Zhao side, Li Zhongguo has taken a back seat, Li Yaozu took over Li Zhongguo's seal, and with the support of a group of veterans, Li Yaozu has become the new pillar of Zhao Guo.

"The family and the country are righteous, and the concubine is now from the Zhao country, so she will not stop the master. Murong Xue said to Li Yaozu with a smile.

Li Yaozu looked at Murong Xue, a touch of tenderness flashed in his eyes, he and Murong Xue were in that situation back then, but he never thought that Murong Xue had such a mind that he didn't have today.

"The concubine only hopes that when the master sees my father, he can let him go, spare the lives of him and everyone in the Murong family, and let them live. Murong Xue looked at Li Yaozu, who was full of tenderness, and whispered

Said.

"That's natural, then I will persuade Lord Yuezhang to give up resistance, now Zhao and Liang are no longer at the same level, as long as Zhao Guo is willing, he can easily step on Liang Guo, I want Lord Yuezhang to see the situation clearly. Li Yaozu nodded in agreement.

"Then thank you, sir. Murong Xue got up and bowed slightly to Li Yaozu.

"You and I don't have to be like that. Li Yaozu took Murong Xue's hand and gently stroked it.

After January.

Murong Xue and the two children sorted out the battle armor for Li Yaozu and watched Li Yaozu go away.

It didn't take long for Zhao's hundreds of thousands of troops to march towards Liang.

Three years later.

The streets of Zhao Guoguo's capital were full of citizens, holding flower baskets in their hands, throwing their bright petals into the air, shouting to greet the sergeants who rode through the streets on tall horses.

It didn't take long for a tall man wearing silver armor to get off his horse at Li Yaozu's door, it was Li Yaozu.

Behind Li Yaozu, there were more than a dozen carriages.

After Li Yaozu stopped, the carriage stopped, and it didn't take long for dozens of men and women wearing Liang Guo costumes to walk down the carriage.

Among these people, there are old and young, all of them have gloomy expressions, but they are all relatives of the Murong family.

They were led by an old woman with white hair, who was on crutches, and as soon as she got out of the carriage, two people stepped forward to help her.

"Mother-in-law, this is my son-in-law's home. Li Yaozu didn't enter the house, took a person's hand, picked up the old woman and said with a smile.

The old woman glanced at Li Yaozu lightly and didn't say much, and then looked at Li Yaozu with a hopeful face.

After a while, a beautiful figure, leading two teenage children, walked out of the gate of Li Qian first, and when she saw the woman, the woman's eyes were immediately covered with a layer of mist.

Murong Xue was teary-eyed, she hadn't seen her biological mother for ten years, she couldn't bear the lovesickness and cried out loud at this moment, and knelt down with a puff in front of the old woman.

"Mother...!"

The old woman's dim eyes also burst into tears at this time, hugging Murong Xue and crying bitterly on the street, for a while, all the Murong family members had tears in their eyes, and the street was immediately full of crying and crying.

"Come, Liang'er, Shui'er, I've seen my grandmother soon. Murong Xue pulled the two children and said.

"Grandma!"

"Grandma!"

Li Liang and Li Shui'er respectfully bowed to the old woman.

A different color flashed in the old woman's eyes, but she didn't have much joy, just a faint hum.

Murong Xue saw that the old woman was like this to her two children, her expression changed, and she looked up at the Murong family around her, and her heart just chuckled.

"Mother... Where's Dad?" asked Murong Xue with a trembling voice.

The old woman slanted aside Li Yaozu on the side, but no

In many words.

Murong Xue was smart, and immediately understood what was going on, and her tears couldn't stop surging, and it took a while to wipe away her tears and say, "Let's go into the house first, the people in the family have vacated the house for you, let's settle down first." ”

"Good!" the old woman nodded.

It was late at night, the streets were quiet, and it was evening.

Murong Xue's eyes were red and swollen, and she pushed open the door and entered the room.

She sat at the head of the bed, tears still pouring back.

"My father-in-law defended Surabaya City, I persuaded him for more than two months to no avail, and then attacked Surabaya City, when the city was broken, who expected my father-in-law to draw his sword...."

"Alright, stop talking!"

Before Li Yaozu could finish speaking, Murong Xue interrupted Li Yaozu's words.

"I'm very grateful that my lord can bring my mother back. Murong Xue smiled reluctantly and said softly.

"Well, it's good if you can understand! Sleep!" Li Yaozu said lightly.

"Hmm!" Murong Xue nodded in response.

Early the next morning.

"Oh no, Madame hanged herself... ”

"Come and save people. ”

At this time, a shout sounded in the backyard of the Li family.

When Li Yaozu heard this shout, his eyes opened suddenly, and he glanced at Murong Xue on the side, and they all saw the shock in each other's eyes, and they quickly got out of bed and didn't care about putting on their coats, pushed the door and ran out.

Seeing the chaotic people in the backyard, Li Yaozu and Murong Xue chuckled in their hearts at the same time, and ran towards the house where Murong Xue lived with their legs.

When they reached the door, they both froze at the same time.

But I saw that the old woman who was still alive yesterday had no breath today, her body was lying stiffly on the ground, and a white silk was shaking slightly on the beam of the house.

"Mother..."Murong Xue's eyes were misty again, crying and pounced on the old woman's corpse.

Looking at the old woman's stiff body, Murong Xue's heart was like a knife at this moment.

"Mother, why are you willing to leave me... ”

"Mother..."

Murong Xue cried loudly, she felt that all thoughts were lost, and what the world said about the ruin of the country and the death of the family was nothing more than that.

His father died because his husband died, and her mother died in front of her eyes, and at this moment, Murong Xue's heart was broken into countless petals.

She looked at Li Yaozu who was stunned at the door, and at this moment her eyes seemed to return to when they met in Surabaya City, it was a gaze full of hatred, and there was no longer a strong affection.

Turning around, she looked at the old woman, caressed the old woman's face, and said softly, "Mother, my daughter will come over to accompany you." ”

After speaking, without waiting for everyone to react, he got up and rushed to the doorpost.

"Xue'er..."Li Yaozu saw Murong Xue's action, his pupils suddenly contracted, and he exclaimed.

But by this time it was too late.

I only heard a muffled bang in the house,

Blood flashed and splattered all around.

Murong Xue's body collapsed limply.

Li Yaozu grabbed Murong Xue and stared at Murong Xue's bloodstained face, but he couldn't say a word.

"We weren't supposed to be together. Murong Xue looked at Li Yaozu, who had always been silent, and said with difficulty.

"Nonsense!" Li Yaozu snorted, and immediately went to call the subordinates behind him, "Come and find Lang Zhong." ”

"No need, I'm still suffering while I'm alive, so it's better to let me go. ”

"No, I didn't let you die, so you weren't allowed to die. At this time, the resolute Li Yaozu also shouted with a painful look on his face.

Murong Xue raised her hand with difficulty, touched Li Yaozu's face, and chuckled, "Take care of our children." ”

After speaking, her beautiful eyes slowly closed, and her hands drooped.

"Cher... Li Yaozu hugged Murong Xue's body and yelled.

For a while, everyone was overwhelmed by the scenery in front of them, and froze in place, looking at the two people on the ground.

"Boom!"

At this moment, I heard a rumbling explosion in the sky as if the sky was falling apart.

Then there was a clattering sound.

Li Yaozu, who was in a sad heart, flashed a look of realization in his eyes, the expression on his face suddenly froze, he looked at the woman in his arms, his body trembled, and he hurriedly threw Murong Xue's body aside.

He stood up and turned his head to look around.

"Why am I here?" Ji Liao's eyes flashed, looking at Murong Xue's corpse, which was already exhausted, "Why is she here again?"

After speaking, his figure flashed, leaving an afterimage in place and jumping out of the door.
