Outside the city, there is a long pavilion on the ancient road.
It had just rained and snowed, and the wind was even colder.
On the ground, the shadows of the clouds moved slowly with the wind. The grass and trees covered with frost swayed slightly.
Suddenly, crystal frost flowers fell from the branches and leaves. Listening carefully, the earth trembled a little.
In the distance, the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded.
Amidst the noisy sound of horse hooves, dozens of majestic knights in silver helmets and feathers galloped over, surrounded by an old man in cloth.
The knights are skilled in equestrian skills and advance like a forest.
The old man with half-white beard and hair seemed to be growing on the back of a horse. His body swayed slightly with the ups and downs of the horse, and his sharp eyes were staring at the tall city wall.
"Here we come!" Chang Sheng, the founding father who had been waiting here for a long time in the pavilion, quickly stood up and stood respectfully outside the pavilion.
When the old man rode closer, he led his family and saluted, "Uncle!"
The old man immediately turned out to be Lan Yu.
Different from the majestic and arrogant general in the past, Lan Yu's face is now a little more windy and peaceful.
He was dressed in cloth and had a crude wooden hairpin on his head. His cheeks were flushed due to the cold wind, and the unruly look in his eyes had disappeared. He became extraordinarily peaceful and serene.
Several years of farming have made him more cheerful and optimistic. Being away from the troubles and troubles of the court has also broadened his mind.
"Are you waiting for me?" Lan Yu said with a smile, "You are not afraid that the emperor will annoy you!"
Chang Sheng smiled and said, "His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun asked your nephew to wait for you!"
Lan Yu smiled and clasped her fists in the direction of the imperial city, "His Highness is the only one in the world who still misses us!"
"Uncle, go home! Your Highness has decreed that you stay at your nephew's house. The house is ready and waiting to welcome you!"
Lan Yu shook her head, "No, I'll just find an inn when I come back this time." She said with a smile, "You are the Duke of the Ming Dynasty, I'm just a commoner, and I can't live together if I don't share the same family!
"
Chang Sheng said anxiously, "Uncle!"
"Stop talking!" Lan Yu said, looking at the city wall, "Take me to my brother's house first, and I'll go see him one last time!"
~~~
Iron Lion Alley is all white.
In front of the Wang family's mourning hall, there was almost no place to stay, and all the relatives and friends looked sad.
From Duke Feng Sheng of the Song Dynasty to the next, all living nobles of the Ming Dynasty came one after another. Wang Bi was from Dingyuan and was a core member of the nobles of Huaixi.
In the mourning hall, there was a huge coffin. The descendants of the Wang family cried loudly, and the noble military ministers who came to express their condolences also wept secretly.
"Brother Wang!"
Cao Zhen, the Marquis of Jingchuan, had already cried hoarsely and his mouth was bloody, "It was me who harmed you! It was me who harmed you!"
While crying, he kept hitting the stone slab with his fists, which were covered in blood and blurred.
"Uncle Cao, please don't do this!" Wang De, the eldest son of Wang, supported him and choked, "I don't blame you, I don't blame you!"
"It's all my fault. If I hadn't dragged your father to drink, he wouldn't have become violently ill!" Cao Zhen howled, "God has no eyes! Brother Wang is such a good person, why would you take him away! I'm a five poisonous person.
Why do you keep a perfect person? God, you took me away and left my brother behind!"
"Uncle Cao!" Wang De cried, "It's all fate!" He cried, trying to pull Cao Zhen up, "Don't cry anymore!"
"Let him cry!" Feng Sheng came over and pulled Wang De away, "If you don't let him cry, he will feel uncomfortable. It's best for him and your father when they were young. They lived in a tent and ate from the same pot. Beat Chen Youliang
Over there, in order to save him, your father was shot and almost punctured his lung tube!"
"Brother!" Cao Zhen burst into tears when he mentioned the past.
Different from Tang He, although Tang He also had prestige and popular support, when they joined the army, Tang He had already led the army alone. But these nobles were the nobles who fought shoulder to shoulder and fought together.
"I killed you, and I don't have the shame to live anymore!"
These days, Cao Zhen has been living in torment. As an old killer who has been killing people and setting fires all his life, his heart is full of regret. At this moment, looking at the coffin, he feels a little bit more guilty.
He stood up and hit the pillar next to him, "Brother, I'll accompany you!"
"Hold on!" Feng Sheng shouted.
"Old Cao!"
A group of nobles hugged Cao Zhen with all their strength.
Cao Zhen struggled and cried, "I killed my brother, how can I still live?"
Suddenly, there was an angry shout from outside.
"Old Cao, why are you so crazy?"
The voice was so familiar that the crowd paused, and then the crowd outside the mourning hall parted like a tide, revealing a figure in civilian clothes.
The figure walked slowly, his back straight.
"Brother Blue!"
"Lan Xiaoer!"
Suddenly, there was an exclamation of surprise all around.
Cao Zhen looked at Lan Yu and couldn't control his tears, "Damn you, you're finally back!"
Lan Yu walked slowly over and looked at him, "I'm back!" He said with a sad smile, "I know you feel bad, but Brother Wang just left, don't let him leave uneasily!"
After saying that, he nodded to Song Guogong Feng Sheng and walked to the coffin.
"Uncle!" Wang De saluted solemnly.
Lan Yu nodded, and found that her figure was trembling as soon as she opened her mouth, "Can I still take a look now?"
"My father has his last words. After you come, I must let you take another look. That's why I stopped for so many days!" Wang De cried, and then pulled Lan Yu to the coffin.
It was freezing cold around the coffin. Even though it was winter, the coffin was still full of ice.
Inside, Wang Bi, who was wearing a python suit and looked as peaceful as if he was asleep, was lying quietly with a copper coin in his lips.
Suddenly, Lan Yu felt sad and could no longer hold back her tears.
"brother!"
The person here is really his dead brother.
When they were twenty years old, they fought bravely to kill the enemy under Chang Yuchun's tent. When they were thirty, they bulldozed Fujian, Zhejiang, Hunan and Chu together. When they were in their early forties, they made an expedition to the north of the Central Plains. When they were fifty, they knew their fate and went on an expedition to the desert.
North, established unparalleled meritorious service.
In this life, these brothers spend more time together than with their mother-in-law. There is a true life-and-death friendship between them.
"Brother!" Lan Yu said with tears, "Let me see you! I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me!"
He called to his brother, but he could no longer hear him.
In the past, in the grassland, in the ice and snow, the army could not move even an inch.
Wang Bi raised his sword and shouted, "Brother, we can't come in vain. The infantry can't move fast. Let's make a surprise attack with our elite cavalry. We will attack Huanglong and capture the Tatar prince. We will go back to the lord to ask for a reward!"
In the past, in Yunnan, all the generals were afraid of the enemy troops.
Wang Bi took off his armor and exposed his chest, "Brother, I will be the vanguard, break that beast's position, and kill that bird Yuan Liang King!"
On the edge of his farmland, Wang Bi came on horseback, "Brother, do you think I brought you here?"
The past events are still vivid in my mind, and the ancients laughed and laughed enthusiastically.
"Brother!" Lan Yu reached out, pulled off a crude jade pendant from his neck, and threw it directly into the coffin.
"Uncle!" Wang De exclaimed.
"This is what my mother left to me! She has protected me all my life, and now she is going to follow my brother!" Lan Yu said sadly, "When we get there, with him here, the little devil of Hell will not dare to make things difficult for my brother!"
As he spoke, he choked and said to the coffin, "Brother, I have worn this jade all my life. It is closest to my heart!"
After saying that, I couldn't hold it back any longer and burst into tears.
Then, he covered his face, stumbled away, and sat alone in a corner.
"The imperial edict has arrived!"
Suddenly, several officials from the Ministry of Rites strode in, and everyone in front of the mourning hall knelt down to listen to the order.
The Minister of Rites opened the edict in front of the mourning hall and read it loudly.
"Wang Bi, the captain of the Zhaoxin School, crossed the river with his own strategy, became the deputy commander, and was the most heroic warrior. He cleared the lakes, Hunan, Fujian and Zhejiang, flattened the Yanyan and Qin Dynasties, and made great achievements in southern Yunnan. He first opened the Dragon's Tail Pass, declared the power of the Han River, and swept
Exhaust the sea of fish. With clear thinking, you can cultivate the rivers and mountains, adhere to the solid foundation of the golden soup, and write the order of loyalty and inheritance in the world of drama."
"To bring peace to the people, Zhao Xilong assisted him, rewarded him with honors and titles, and granted him a title in the Yang Mansion. He worshiped Xiuzi'er. For his outstanding achievements, he was awarded a title far away."
"Today, I passed away due to illness, and the country lost its pillars. I am very sad, and I have made a special decree to posthumously title Wang Bi's ancestor Wang Siqi and his father Wang Wuwu as Marquis of Dingyuan. After his grandmother, his biological mother was a marquise. His descendants are allowed to follow him.
Iron Scroll of Alchemy Book!"
"O minister, please thank God!"
The Wang family kowtowed and thanked each other, sitting alone in a corner, like forgotten blue jade, with a sneer on their lips.
I thought to myself, "Tsk, tsk, what a great grace!"
Suddenly, a pair of boots came into view, and the person quickly stood up.
Zhu Yunxi didn't know when he came here and said gently, "I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you? How are you?"
