Priceless: A widow with a baby asks the prince to marry again

"Lie'er... I'm sorry... I shouldn't have left you behind..."

Qin Shuangyu was so heartbroken that he could not even bother to hide his miserable appearance. With his tear-soaked eyes, he looked at the mother and son who had avoided his sight, and asked in a trembling voice, "My father, mother... and... my Lie'er... how could this happen?"

Liu Rusi knew that he wanted to ask about the cause of death of his relatives...

"When Qin Lie was thirteen, his grandfather was killed by a bear while cutting wood. When he was fifteen, his grandmother died of heatstroke during the autumn harvest."

"…On March 3rd last year…Qin Lie was 24 years old…"

Speaking of Qin Lie's death, Liu Rusi still couldn't let it go, choking with sobs and speaking intermittently: "Qin Lie... went to Jinyan City to sell the wild ginseng he had picked... on the way back to the village... suddenly a rock rolled down... and hit his spine... Qin Lie... just died like that..."

Qin Shuangyu seemed to have lost all his strength, and he collapsed on the ground... His eyes were empty and gray...

These were all sudden accidents, so even the extravagant hope of revenge and atonement was shattered...

Liu Rusi's mind was turning heavy. She suddenly hated her own sensitivity to emotions. This man's grief was so real... that she couldn't simply hate him...

But she also found it difficult to understand, so she asked softly: "In all these years...haven't you ever inquired about their situation?"

"I'm a coward..."

A pair of scarred hands covered the regret in the eyes, but the miserable voice also expressed the unwillingness...

The past came flooding back like a tide. At that time, he was clearly reluctant to leave home and his young children!

But at that time, his father saw that the emperor was incompetent and thought that it was the right time to realize his ambitions, so Qin Zhong took on the ambitions entrusted by his father.

So he gave up his family, changed his name to Qin Shuangyu, and looked for opportunities to take advantage of by serving in the army.

I had planned to work hard for a few years, whether I succeeded or failed. If I returned home without any achievements, even if my father felt sorry, he would understand...

But he met Chu Wei! His ambitions were fanned into a raging fire by her! Chu Wei gave him the illusion that as long as he took that step, he could easily accomplish the great task of restoring the dynasty!

Chu Wei threatened him with the life of his comrade, and he actually had no choice, but his ambition was stirring, even overwhelming his hatred for his family feud, so he was half-hearted...

Leading 100,000 soldiers to the capital, his ambition reached its peak! He even fantasized that after taking the capital, when the victory was solid, he would bring his parents and children back and regain his name! To regain the glory of his ancestors!

But on that day, everything was buried!

Chu Tianming appeared out of nowhere like a cold sword!

Qin Shuangyu is not afraid of drawing his sword and fighting to the death!

But his foundation is shallow, and he can control 100,000 soldiers almost entirely relying on Chu Wei's support, and Chu Wei is unwilling to risk everything...

Soon after, he also realized the situation...

Chu Tianming killed his father to seize the throne! He framed the crown prince! If he could guess it, how could those shrewd officials not think of it? !

At that moment, he deeply agreed with his ancestors' practice of abandoning Confucianism!

These great scholars are full of filial piety and brotherhood! They use benevolence, righteousness and morality to restrain the world! But they remain silent and turn a blind eye to the heinous crimes! They bow down to the cruel people who have no father or king and are cold-blooded and ruthless!

But everything also told him the cold and cruel truth: the fate of Daxia has been decided, and the world is in Chu Tianming's hands, which are unbreakable.

His ambition was hopeless, but Qin Zhong was in a dilemma...

Chu Tianming unscrupulously placed spies around him to monitor him, but Chu Wei reminded him not to remove them, otherwise he would be regarded as having rebellious intentions. It is better to be wronged than to let them go!

He was extremely unwilling, but also extremely scared! Chu Tianming's cold and inquiring glance made him shudder!

He didn't dare to write home again, fearing that Chu Tianming would follow his investigation to Dongshan Village!

He didn't dare to gamble! On his father's back was engraved a totem that illuminated his soul. It was the ambition to re-establish the previous dynasty, symbolizing the blood flowing in their bodies! If Chu Tianming knew about this... he couldn't gamble, what would happen to his parents and Qin Lie...

He could only endure, endure the desire to see his relatives, swallow the pain of missing them day after day, and just hope that they could be safe and sound in that remote mountain village...

His greatest wish is that his parents and children are safe!

"I'm a coward!"

"I have been timid and cowardly, living a miserable life! After twenty years, in the end, I have nothing! It's all in vain! It's all in vain!"

All my wishes in life are in vain!

The pain that tore his heart apart almost made the iron-tower-like man collapse...

"Abu! Eji! Lie'er! My Lie'er!"

Wailing, the middle-aged general beat his chest like a madman!

There was a dull "dong dong" sound, and the force of the hammer hitting the chest was so great that people couldn't help but worry that he would break his sternum!

Liu Rusi had no choice but to put aside her complicated concerns and quickly spoke out to comfort him, "The dead are gone! Qin Lie would never want his relatives to suffer. His spirit in heaven would definitely not want to see you like this!"

The comforting had an effect. Qin Shuangyu's movements gradually slowed down, but his eyes were still filled with despair...

Liu Rusi's heart trembled. She could see that this life had lost its interest...

"You still have Qin Tao and Qin Zhen! You already owe Qin Lie, don't owe them anymore!"

Qin Shuangyu's gray eyes moved slightly, and a new hope emerged, but it made Liu Rusi's heart tremble!

It was not because he was thinking of his two children, his gaze filled with love was all on Qin Hao!

There is no sympathy or compassion left!

Liu Rusi's face immediately turned cold, and she said harshly: "You are now General Wei Yu, Qin Shuangyu! You are the consort of the eldest princess, and the father of Changtai and Changning!"

"You are not Qin Lie's father, Qin Zhong! You are not Qin Hao's grandfather! You just happen to have the same last name, Qin. Don't bother Qin Hao anymore!"

Holding Qin Hao's hand tightly, Liu Rusi turned around and was about to take her son away.

Qin Shuangyu was heartbroken and reached out to grab Qin Hao's arm!

"Let me go!" Little Qin Hao frowned and tried hard to shake him off!

Qin Shuangyu quickly softened his grip, fearing that he might hurt the weak child! But he still held on firmly, making it impossible for little Qin Hao to break free!

The child in front of him was the reason why he could still bear the pain after hearing the bad news! It turned out that when he knew nothing, Qin Lie had grown up, got married and had children, and left his bloodline in this world... This was the grandson he was willing to give up everything to protect!

"I am Qin Shuangyu because I am afraid... Now I have nothing to worry about! I am Qin Zhong! Qin Lie's biological father! Qin Hao is my grandson!"

Qin Zhong's eyes were filled with determination to get his name back!

Liu Rusi was speechless for a moment. She probably guessed why Qin Zhong was so afraid...

Why did the old Taoist priest travel thousands of miles to Xingzhou? Why was he willing to bear the price of revealing the secret and interfere with their fate in the flood?

She knew that the old Taoist priest had nothing to do with her, and the old Taoist priest had never concealed his kindness to Qin Hao...

Qin Hao had been by her side since he was a child and had never had any interaction with the old Taoist priest. The only interaction he knew about was that Qin Lie had gone to Baitian Temple to thank God for giving him a child and fulfilling his wish.

Can just kneeling devoutly and sending a calf make a Taoist priest who has seen through the worldly world risk his life for Qin Lie's child?

...Apart from the fact that blood is thicker than water, is there any more reasonable reason that can make people give everything without asking for anything in return?

Judging from their ages, the one with a connection should be Qin Lie’s grandfather…

When we first met in Xingzhou, the old Taoist priest mentioned the word "brother" many times...

'Brothers don't have to be together. There are many brothers who never see each other until death... It doesn't necessarily mean that they have a bad relationship... But they have different paths to take...'

Perhaps, this is the relationship between the old Taoist and Qin Lie's grandfather. The old Taoist thought of the brotherhood and used this metaphor to express the regret that was hard to let go...

But! The old Taoist priest is the last prince of the previous dynasty, Boerzhijin Seriguleng!

In other words, the Qin family is the descendant of the royal family of the previous dynasty who changed their name!

This way, everything would be logical! Such a taboo origin would naturally scare Qin Zhong to the point of abandoning his family and children, not daring to let anyone know about the existence of his parents and beloved son!

Carrying a heavy secret and having loved ones who need to be carefully hidden and protected, even the bravest and most fearless heroes will become timid and cowardly...
