Chapter 290 Past events (16)
The reason why Shi Yunan was wandering outside was because he was abandoned by his mother.
When he was born, his face was blue and purple. This was because he had been trapped in the womb for too long and his mother had a difficult delivery, so it took her a full day and night to give birth to him.
His mother suffered a lot. When she saw him, she remembered that all the suffering she had gone through was because of him. In a fit of rage, she asked the maid to abandon him.
The little boy was in the cradle, drifting farther and farther away with the river. His faint cries attracted Wen Zhinian who came to the river to fish.
Because he had picked up a child before, and seeing that this little guy was as pitiful as little Zhixing two years ago, Wen Zhinian picked him up.
Yin Nian felt very pity when he saw him picking up another child.
Seeing this little fellow covered in bruises who looked as if he would not survive the next day, the two took him to the town's clinic. After they came back, they found Xiao Zhixing squatting at the door waiting for them.
Yin Nian walked over, picked him up and put him on the bed. Wen Zhinian also put him next to Yin Zhixing and gestured to him to take care of him.
So the two of them went into the mountains together. They had no milk, so they could only find some animals that were still in the lactation period to feed Wen Nian'an.
This is how the two grew up. Yin Zhixing started learning martial arts when he was five or six years old, and three-year-old Wen Nian'an was also very quiet.
When his brother practiced martial arts, he followed beside him and learned without saying a word.
As he grew older, he was finally able to practice martial arts with his brother.
As the years passed, the young babies grew up and they had already shared the responsibilities of the household.
Because there were only three rooms, one was the kitchen, two were the bedrooms, one was for the foster fathers, and one was naturally where they lived.
Until he was thirteen years old, Wen Nian'an slept with Yin Zhixing.
Until one day, my brother disappeared.
Wen Zhinian anxiously wrote on the ground with a wooden stick, asking Wen Nian'an to stay at home and behave himself. He and Yin Nian went out to find Xiao Zhixing.
Wen Nian'an nodded obediently, but after the two of them left, he thought about it, left a letter, and followed them out.
He was also very worried about his brother. Since he was old enough and had the ability to go find his brother, he would naturally go.
He searched for five years, and until he was eighteen years old and followed the caravan into the imperial city, he had never heard of Yin Zhixing.
It was not until he was found and claimed by the Shi family that he knew why he was abandoned.
After his mother had difficulty giving birth to him, it became difficult for her to get pregnant again. His father did not take a concubine for many years, so he was the only child in such a large mansion.
Seeing his mother's eyes still full of hatred for him, Shi Yunan didn't know what to say.
Being born was not something he could choose when he was young, but he would feel better if his mother hated him.
Then being hated is not a bad thing.
Later, Yun An went back to look for his adoptive fathers. They were already old, and they were very happy to see him grow up.
They did not blame him for leaving that year, but just missed the childhood memories of him and Yin Zhixing.
Wen Nian'an actually didn't find Yin Zhixing, but he found Xi Jingzhi.
Yin Zhixing was the crown prince of Xi Chengguo. He changed his name immediately after being recognized and brought back.
No wonder he couldn't find him for all these years.
"Do you know where my foster parents are being held under house arrest? I want to go see them."
Shi Yunan raised his eyes to look at Xi Jingzhi and asked softly.
As if he could guess Xi Jingzhi's thoughts, he immediately assured: "I won't rescue my foster fathers rashly."
“They are in the cold palace”
Xi Jingzhi reached out and touched his face, gently wiping away the tears that had not yet dried on his face.
The memory changes, and Shi Yunan, who is watching, changes the scene accordingly.
This time, the memory is that Shi Yunan was confronting a group of men in black, holding a sword in his hand and covered in blood.
"Tsk, no need to guess, I know who it is."
Shi Yunan sneered, covering his abdomen with his left hand, and the warm blood seeped into his nightgown.
He has been in and out of the palace frequently these days, and the old emperor must have noticed something. The ones who came to hunt him down this time are the secret guards who usually protect the emperor.
The men in black didn't say anything, just exchanged glances with each other, and rushed forward quickly with weapons in hand.
The person at the back also threw out hidden weapons. The heads of the weapons glowed with a deep purple light, and these hidden weapons were all poisoned.
Shi Yunan dodged the hidden weapon with a nimble move, raised the Qingxue Sword, and slashed the chest of the person in front of him.
"Well!"
As more people retreat, more people continue to come to fill their place.
It seemed like an endless round-robin battle. Shi Yunan was panting and the hand holding the Qingxue Sword was shaking slightly.
His strength was running out.
Shi Yunan half-closed his left eye, the blood on his forehead slowly flowed down, and his eyes were blood red.
The secret guards continued to attack fiercely, and as a figure flew past him from the right, the sword in Shi Yunan's hand was knocked away.
The man then kicked him in the back.
Shi Yunan half-knelt on the ground and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
I felt excruciating pain all over my body, and my hands and feet were numb.
"Now!"
When his consciousness became completely blurred, Shi Yunan seemed to hear something, but before he had time to think about what it was, he completely lost consciousness.
The scene changed again, and this time he saw Xi Jingzhi dressed in red, holding the Qingxue sword in his hand. He pointed the sword at the emperor's neck with a sinister and cold look.
His red clothes were dripping with blood, and red flowers bloomed wherever he went.
There were corpses everywhere in the imperial study, and blood was truly flowing like a river.
However, the emperor was not afraid at all and even laughed.
Xi Jingzhi narrowed his eyes, didn't want to waste time talking, and slashed the man's head with his knife.
The palace gates were closed, and whenever Xi Jingzhi arrived at a palace, he would kill without saying a word.
As he killed his way to the Queen's bedroom, his bloody clothes were dripping with more blood, and even his long hair was splattered with blood.
The face, which was so handsome and breathtaking, looked even more charming after being stained with blood.
The corners of his lips rose slightly, and he glanced at the queen who was sitting on the ground in fright.
The Qingxue Sword in his hand had already turned deep red, and the strong smell of blood exuded an ominous aura.
"You, you! How dare you! Do you want to kill your mother?"
The queen pointed at him with trembling hands, and her whole body retreated uncontrollably.
The palace servant who used to serve and protect her had just been killed by Xi Jingzhi, and now only the queen and he were left.
"Mother," Xi Jingzhi's smile disappeared and he looked at her coldly.
This posture is completely looking down at her.
However, the queen was unable to say anything to blame him. Who knew if he would go crazy again!
"Do you know how much pain I'm in?"
He looked too calm, as if he was chatting with the queen at ordinary times.
