Haicheng Criminal Investigation Bureau
Chapter 6: The first clue
Continue to walk into the infield.
On the red carpet side, Shen Weiting happened to sign his name on the autograph board and walked to the hostess.
"What a coincidence, Feng Feng, who starred in the role of Xia Dongsheng in "Soul of the Army" just talked with me, and we also said that we are looking forward to the performance of "Soul of the Army" tonight. I didn't expect 'Liao Yanxi' to come to us in a short while Here we come."
Shen Weiting nodded with a smile, "Probably because he fought too hard with Xia Dongsheng in "Soul of the Army" and finally failed to win, hurry up to win!"
"Hehe, Wei Ting really likes to joke. We all know that Liao Yanxi is the most calm and calm man." Saying that, the hostess made an 'excited' expression, "He is my male god!"
"Really?" Shen Weiting asked in surprise.
The hostess nodded, and took Wei Ting's arms to face the media on both sides of the red carpet, "Of course, I just seized the opportunity and let me take a photo with my idol." She said, and made a very cute expression.
Shen Weiting always smiled lightly and behaved gracefully.After the joking greetings ended, the hostess started to get to the point, "Hehe, seeing Wei Ting's appearance, it's like Yanxi possessed a body. I always think of the scene where you lead troops to fight on the battlefield."
"Yes, when I received this book, what I liked the most was Liao Yanxi's love and sincerity for the country, which moved me very much." Shen Weiting said sincerely.
"We Weiting have always been very positive male gods. We never thought we would be so patriotic. It is really worth learning from us." The hostess praised.
Shen Weiting thanked her with a smile, and the hostess continued: "Then please invite Weiting to rest in the infield first, and look forward to your performance tonight!"
"Thank you." Shen Weiting nodded, turned and walked towards the infield.
The red carpet of the Plum and Bamboo Awards tonight is star-studded. After Shen Weiting left, several heavyweight male and female guests came one after another. They are all important figures in the domestic and even international entertainment circles.The hostess was calm and calm, with a fun and humorous hosting style, which made all the big names burst into laughter, and the atmosphere of the venue was very good.
After a male guest left, a red sports car parked at the other end of the red carpet, and two people could be seen from the open roof.The hostess lady opened the door of the driver's seat, and Yun Tianhe, who was wearing a dark red black-collar dress and a bow tie of the same color, came down.Just when everyone thought he was going to walk forward, he turned to the other side, took over from the hostess lady to open the car door, and let the people on the other side get out.
All kinds of media not far away were curious about what kind of person would allow Yun Tianhe, the boss of the leading film and television company in the entertainment industry, the dignified Qiu family's young master, to open the door for him with such condescension.When the two people in the distance walked side by side, the reporters almost forgot to press the shutter and stared at them blankly.
"This... this is..." The hostess on the autograph stage was also stunned, and she didn't realize for a long time that she should say some greetings at this moment.
"Lieutenant General Ziyin of Haicheng Criminal Investigation Section, this is a politician, so be careful when you speak." The director's voice came from the invisible earphone.
It was the first time in my hosting career that I faced such a big person. The hostess was a little overwhelmed, and hurriedly calmed down, with a warm smile on her face again.
"Wow! I think the two who are coming now must be what everyone is looking forward to. President Yun and General Zi are here. Our party scene is really full of splendor!" The hostess took the lead in applauding. The audience suddenly came back to their senses and hurriedly applauded.
"Welcome, welcome to President Yun and General Zi." The hostesses shook hands with the two who walked up to the signature stage, and motioned for the hostess to hand over the signature pen.
Yun Tianhe took the initiative to refuse the signature for Zi Yin, and walked up to sign the two names side by side on the signature board.Zi Yin stood aside, just watching his behavior indifferently, a pair of pitch-black eyes against the colorful lights of the venue, were as bright as a sky full of stars.
Facing such a middle-aged man who still looks calm and elegant, the hostess was a little dazed for a moment, looking at him with a blushing face, her heart pounding.
"Hello." Yun Tianhe, who had already signed his name at some point, walked between the two of them, quietly blocked the admiring sight of the hostess, and greeted him with a light smile.
The hostess was startled by his stare, quickly put away her irrational thoughts, and said with a professional smile: "President Yun can come to the Plum and Bamboo Awards Gala, I believe that many of our artists are very happy Woolen cloth."
"It's my honor to be invited to participate in the Plum and Bamboo Awards." Yun Tianhe spoke and behaved politely, showing a refined and gentlemanly demeanor.
The hostess held the microphone and said with a smile: "President Yun has carefully managed Hanrong Entertainment for so many years, and he has really brought us many excellent works and excellent artists. For example, the best film we have been nominated for this time, "Army "Soul" was invested and filmed by Han Rong. And our Feng Feng and Ting Ting, who performed outstandingly in this film, got the chance to compete for the best actor title because of this, all thanks to Mr. Yun."
"You are too kind. Artists' outstanding performances are the result of their own hard work, and a good film and television work cannot be just the credit of the producer and investors. This is also due to those in front of and behind the scenes. We, Han Rong, are just providing a platform for everyone to develop their talents." Yun Tianhe responded calmly.
The hostess was overwhelmed by his elegant charm, and said sincerely: "Mr. Yun is really humble and polite. You see, this year is coming to an end again. I have been busy for so long. Does Mr. Yun have any wishes? Also and Let's all talk."
"Hmm..." Yun Tianhe hesitated for a moment, and out of the corner of his eyes, he caught sight of the man who was still standing quietly, and suddenly a sly light flashed in his eyes, "I have been running Hanrong for so many years, and I have never had time to relax. If you say The last wish of the year is probably to take a quick trip with my best friends."
After he finished speaking, he looked sideways at Zi Yin beside him, his eyes and expression were full of watery gentleness that could not be ignored.The hostess was stunned on the spot, with her mouth slightly open, not knowing what to say next.And Ziyin met his smiling eyes in astonishment, and couldn't believe that this man actually said such a sentence in front of everyone.
The media around the red carpet have long been tempered and refined, and everyone has a pair of eyes that are good at spotting ambiguity.Seeing the picture in front of me, I immediately grasped this moment, and the camera with the flash light kept shooting, recording this once-in-a-century scene.
"Eh..." The director's reminder came from the hostess's earphones. She hurriedly came back to her senses, put on a stiff smile, and said to Yun Tianhe, "Hehe, it's really fun to travel in such a beautiful autumn." It's a pleasant thing. Then I wish Mr. Yun a happy trip, first invite Mr. Yun and General Zi to rest in the infield, and our party will begin soon."
Yun Tianhe nodded, and walked slowly towards the infield with Ziyin under the amazed eyes of the crowd.
In the earphones, there was a sigh of exhaustion from the director, "Master, you really dare to say anything!"
The hostess looked at the back of the two of them leaving side by side, unable to recover for a long time...

The infield of the awards ceremony was gorgeously arranged, with flowers of various colors adorning every corner, and the fragrance of flowers filled the venue.The colorful lights kept flickering, illuminating the gorgeous makeup and dazzling jewelry decorations of the guests, and even the luxurious dresses on their bodies reflected the dazzling light under the lights.
Shen Weiting was sitting on his seat, with a calm and smiling expression on the surface, but he clenched his writhing hands tightly, revealing his inner anxiety and worry.It has been nearly five days, and their search still has no clue. The longer it takes, the worse the result will be. He no longer dares to imagine, what should he do if he can't find it?That person... what should I do?
Looking towards the place where the man was sitting in the distance, he really saw the other party's seemingly unintentional inquiring gaze, and after seeing him shake his head silently, sadness and despair flashed in his eyes instantly.The hands on the lapped knees were tightly clenched, otherwise he didn't know if he could still sit here pretending nothing had happened.
'Where did you go? ' he closed his eyes and said in his mind.
Suddenly, he heard the familiar sound of smacking his lips in his ears, just like the countless times before, he smacked his mouth in satisfaction after eating in that person's arms.Shen Weiting suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the source of the sound.
He took a breath in astonishment, and looked at the face that came into his eyes.
"precious……"
"Hush!" Ning Zhiyuan, who was holding the ball, stretched out his index finger and pressed it to his lips to make a silent gesture. An Yichen who was beside him calmly glanced behind him, behind their row of special guest seats. , exactly three or four consecutive rows of media seats.
Shen Weiting immediately retracted the remaining word clearly, and just looked at Qiuqiu who was held in Ning Zhiyuan's arms with a kind of joyful eyes that were lost and found.
"He's fine." An Yichen whispered.
Shen Weiting turned around, suppressed the choked hoarseness in his throat, and said, "Thank you."
After finishing speaking, he looked not far away, and sure enough, he saw that the person also noticed Qiuqiu who was hugged by Ning Zhiyuan, and he almost couldn't help getting up for a moment and was about to rush over, but fortunately, he was stopped by the clever assistant He's out of control.
"Crack!" Seeing his father whom he hadn't seen for a long time, Qiuqiu danced happily, standing on Ning Zhiyuan's lap and squatting, as if dancing.
An Yichen teasingly scratched his chin, which made the little guy laugh "hehe".
"Wow, so cute, are you a relative of Young Master Ning?" A sharp-eyed reporter behind him approached and asked with a smile.
Ning Zhiyuan glanced at her coldly, looked at Qiuqiu in his arms, and suddenly said in surprise, "This is my son."
(⊙o⊙) Ah!
Not only the reporter who asked the question just now, but everyone around Ning Zhiyuan who heard this sentence showed shocked expressions, even Shen Weiting who was sitting in the front row looked back at him in astonishment.
An Yichen's temples twitched, and countless black lines slipped down. He took a look at this blunt guy, and turned his face away wishing that he didn't know this person.
In the next moment, the flashlights in the media seats behind him kept flashing, and the sound of shutters being pressed filled my ears.There is hardly any suspense. Tomorrow morning, the front pages of major domestic newspapers will definitely be the news of 'the second son of the Ning family has an illegitimate child'.
Helplessly looking at the sky and rolling his eyes, An Yichen cast a reassuring look at Shen Weiting, the other party nodded slightly and turned away.Soon, the gorgeous and bright main lights of the venue slowly dimmed, and the colorful searchlights on the walls on both sides fired at the stage, and the music started, and the Plum and Bamboo Awards Gala slowly opened...
After a melodious melody, two young and beautiful male and female hosts stepped onto the stage and opened with a humorous hosting style, enlivening the atmosphere on the stage and in the guest seats.The party went very smoothly. Under the deliberate arrangement of the preparatory team, the usual opening speech given by Mo Fanbin was replaced by the stage of a very popular idol group.Although many people in the circle were puzzled by this change, the uninformed audience in the back row were very satisfied with this program, screaming and cheering one after another.As the lively and joyful atmosphere of the party heated up, the major awards that people paid attention to were also announced one by one.Some are well-received, and some are not.However, regardless of gain or loss, people sat in the guest seats with perfect smiles to accept every pursuit of the camera, and tried their best to show their most beautiful side in front of the audience.
"Okay, I was really moved by the Best Documentary Award just now! Seeing the scenes captured by the crew in such a dangerous environment really shocked us." The hostess wiped the corners of her eyes and said with a smile .
The male host nodded and said, "Isn't it? When I was chatting with their director in the audience just now, I said that many staff members were infected with diseases at that time, but for this film, I still persevered. Jia!"
"Yes!" The hostess sighed with emotion, and said: "It also depends on the hard work of many film and television workers day and night, so that many excellent film and television works can be presented in front of us today. And what we can't see They are really worthy of our praise." She took the lead in clapping, and the guests in the audience also clapped gracefully, and the camera passed by Everywhere, everyone had smiles of admiration on their faces.
"That's right, day and night." The male host nodded movedly, then changed the topic and said with a smile: "It's a coincidence that I heard a very nice song most often, and its name just happened to be day and night."
"really?"
"Of course, and the tune is melodious, very nice."
"Wow, then I really want to hear it."
"Haha, don't tell me, today we really have this opportunity to listen to this beautiful song, because the singer of this song is sitting in our auditorium right now, our Shen Weiting." , the male host pointed out, the lights and the camera followed, just in time to record Shen Weiting's perfect and hearty smile.
"Okay, let's invite Weiting to sing the song "Day and Night" for everyone." The hostess made an invitation gesture, Shen Weiting slowly got up, and walked towards the back of the stage with the staff.
The curtain fell slowly, and in less than a moment, a piece of music slowly opened through the curtain, and a melodious male voice like a violin came along with the rising curtain.
The dark night invades the bright first quarter moon,
Whiteness is shrouded in darkness,
I cannot see the light of dawn;
Day and night, day and night,
I am struggling to find the dawn of life,
until your arrival.
Searching and waiting in the world,
You flow into my heart like the morning dew.
cat-like cunning, childish naughtiness,
They are the most beautiful movements in my heart!
……
This song was originally sung by Shen Weiting, Xia Lang and Chu Huaizhou, but Xia Lang died unexpectedly, Yun Tianhe temporarily changed his mind, and Shen Weiting sang it alone.Now he not only has to accurately grasp his own scale, but also perfectly sings the scale that has been completely adjusted to cater to the voices of the other two, which has to be regarded as a test of his singing skills.
However, what is surprising is that in the face of such a situation, Shen Weiting is still calm and unhurried, and there is no flaw in the transition between different scales, making it impossible for people to hear that this song was originally prepared for three people.And not only that, he can also perfectly interpret Sharan's bass and Chu Huaizhou's alto with his own singing skills, which is admirable.
Ning Zhiyuan and An Yichen sat under the stage and listened carefully, feeling a little admiration for this man in their hearts.Qiuqiu, who was held in Ning Zhiyuan's arms, heard his father's nice voice, bouncing up and down "ahhh" in line, as if he was accompaniment to his father.
Ning Zhiyuan was amused by him, hugged the little guy and kissed him a few times lovingly.Another person in the distance also took advantage of the dim light of the venue to secretly cast his gaze, and his eye sockets were covered with mist.
When Shen Weiting's performance ended, everyone on the stage applauded. On the second floor and the last auditorium, his fans screamed his name over and over again, and were deeply moved by every moment this man gave them. a joy.
"Wow, I'm so satisfied after listening to it. This song is really good." Looking at Shen Weiting who stepped down from the stage, the hostess smiled and said.
"That's right, it's said that this song ranked in the top three on the first day it was released, that's amazing!" the male host said.
The hostess nodded and said with a smile: "But once you mentioned that you are great, I thought of something even more powerful related to Ting Ting."
"Oh, you're talking about "Soul of the Army", which was just released a few days ago!"
"That's right, my best friend and I went to see it, and we were moved to tears."
"Yes, but to say that "Soul of the Army" is amazing, apart from the excellent acting skills of the actors, our director Fang Xiaosheng and screenwriter Chen Shuo are the most amazing. It is truly amazing that we can present such an excellent work in front of us." It’s amazing.” As he spoke, he gave a thumbs up to the audience, and the camera shot to see director Fang Xiaosheng and screenwriter Chen Shuo, who was about 50 years old, smiled modestly and made a polite gesture towards the stage.
The male and female hosts also nodded slightly in response, and then the hostess said: "When it comes to "Soul of the Army", I remembered it. We have been busy listening to songs and chatting, and forgot to present the awards."
"Hehe, yes, then let us invite the famous director Zhang Zehan and the old artist Ms. Mei Nianqiu to present us the best film award of the Plum and Bamboo Awards."
There was a round of applause accompanied by the regular entrance music, and an old man in a retro blue evening dress walked out with a middle-aged man on his arm.After a simple exchange of pleasantries, the two opened the list of awards handed over by the Miss Etiquette.
Ms. Mei Nianqiu looked at the name on it, smiled and said: "I think, this award is given to this film, it must be what everyone expects."
Director Zhang Zehan glanced sideways, and nodded in agreement, "That's right, this is really a movie that moved us." Then, he raised his hand towards the center of the stage, "Let us watch big screen."
10,
The venue was completely dark, and everyone's attention was focused on the big screen in the center of the stage.
The picture unfolded, showing a vast ocean, the camera gradually zoomed in, a large old-fashioned cruise ship slowly sailed into the port, and all the people filed down.Suddenly, a pair of feet appeared at the door of the cabin where people came and went. They were slender and straight. They were wearing leather shoes that were very fashionable in the Republic of China period. The straight trousers were exquisitely made, and they were very valuable at first glance.Then, the camera slowly zoomed up, a suit of the same color as the trousers, a white and clean shirt, and a slender neck.
The last thing that catches people's eyes is a handsome face, clear eyes, flying eyebrows, high nose bridge and thin lips. There is no part of this man's face that is not delicate and no part is moving. .Those who followed him off the boat couldn't help but look sideways, their eyes full of envy.
Not far away, a car stopped at the gate of the pier, and a young man dressed in a short shirt, trousers, and cloth shoes came down and waved at him.
"Master!"
The man saw him and walked over with a smile.
"You are back, the master and wife are looking forward to it every day." The young man took the luggage in his hand, opened the door and let people get into the car, while he took the luggage and sat in the passenger seat.
The car left the pier and drove into the street. It has not come back for many years. The city has also undergone earth-shaking changes. The man leaned on the window and watched the street shops and crowds moving back and forth, with the excitement and touch of finally returning to his hometown on his face.
The car drove more than half of the city, and finally stopped in front of a quaint mansion in a secluded street. Two servants and the old lady greeted them. When they opened the door, they were very happy to see the people coming.
"Young master, the young master is back." The old lady shouted loudly with a smile while holding the man's hand and walking inside.
Soon the two of them walked through the front yard and came to the hall. A middle-aged couple in fancy clothes was sitting in the high hall. When they saw the man appearing, they stood up excitedly.
"Dongsheng." The woman hugged her son, tears streaming down her eyes instantly.
"Mom." Xia Dongsheng couldn't help being moved by his mother's warm embrace, and he pursed his lips to hold back the tears in his eyes.
"You are back." Although the father on the side was not as emotional as his wife, the emotion in his eyes still revealed his longing for his son.
The Xia family in the capital city is a scholarly family. During the Manchu and Qing dynasties, there were children who were officials in the court.Later, when the Manchu Qing Dynasty fell and the Republic of China was established, Father Xia resolutely turned down his request for a high post in the government of the Republic of China, shutting himself at home and no longer caring about political party affairs.But Xia Dongsheng, the only son of the Xia family, is a young man with ideals and revenge. He does not want to live in a deep house with his father to avoid the turmoil of the country all his life, so he secretly leaves a letter and goes to England to study with a few like-minded friends. Going to school, I didn't ask for a penny from my family for so many years. I earned money by working on my own, and finally returned to China after studying.
"You kid, you didn't tell mom when you left, do you know how worried I am?"
Xia Dongsheng smiled heartily, with a bit of a childish look in front of his mother, "Mom, you know, my son has always wanted to go out and see the outside world."
"You!"
Now that my son has returned from his studies, there is no better reward than this.All the worries in Mother Xia's heart disappeared after seeing her son's radiant appearance. Naturally, she couldn't do anything about her baby son acting like a baby.
The family stopped scolding, and Xia Dongsheng felt much more at ease.After chatting with my parents for a long time, I left the hall with the excuse of being tired, and promised to have a reunion dinner with my parents in the evening.
After walking a long way down the corridor, he asked the followers beside him in a low voice, "Where is he?"
The follower smiled clearly and pointed to the backyard, "It's still the same place."
Xia Dongsheng smiled happily, threw the clothes on his shoulders to him, and ran towards the backyard.All the way back from the porch of Xia's mansion is Mrs. Xia's garden.Xia's mother, who was born in the noble family of the royal family, likes all kinds of flowers the most, so she brought a gardener from home to take care of the flowers in the garden for herself.Only four years ago the gardener died of tuberculosis.One son is left alone, and now he takes over his father's work to take care of the garden for Xia's family.
Xia Dongsheng rushed all the way there, and he saw the man in clean work clothes standing among the flowers, tending flowers and plants.
"Liao Yanxi!"
Hearing the familiar shout behind him, Yanxi stopped what he was doing and turned around. Under the sun, Xia Dongsheng, who was wearing a clean white shirt, had a bright and bright smile. His handsome facial contour seemed to be covered with a layer of gold rim by the sun, which was extremely gorgeous.
"Dongsheng." The flower shovel in his hand fell to the ground, Liao Yanxi was surprised.
Father Liao had been working in the palace since he was young, and after he got married and had a son, he came to the Xia family with the eldest lady. He always regarded everyone in the Xia family as his master, and he loved this young master even more.Therefore, since childhood, Liao Yanxi was instilled by his father in the concept of being loyal to the master and obeying the young master.But Liao's mother looked down on Liao's father's thinking very much, thinking that Liao's father was worthless and would only be a slave. When Liao Yanxi was seven years old, he simply left home and ran away with others.Xia Dongsheng's parents are kind-hearted people. They felt that Liao's father had worked hard for many years, so they raised Liao Yanxi and Xia Dongsheng together as companions. They used to eat the same food and wear Xia Dongsheng. Clothes that are not worn are almost treated as half a young master's treatment.Liao's father was grateful for the great kindness of the master and worked even harder.However, he still couldn't bear the hard work all year round. Liao Yanxi died of tuberculosis when he was 16 years old.After his father died, Liao Yanxi left Xia Dongsheng's yard and returned to the garden in the back garden. He took over his father's work and continued to take care of flowers and plants for Xia's family, still doing his best.Xia Dongsheng has been angry about this for a long time. Having been educated in the new school since childhood, he also can't understand Liao Yanxi always treating himself as a slave at a young age, but every time he gets angry and scolds him, he just smiles and deals with it, and turns around. He continued to be his own gardener.Xia Dongsheng got angry later, and simply ignored him, and went to study in England with a few friends.
After years of separation, the annoyance in my heart towards this childhood playmate has long since dissipated. When I returned home, besides my parents, the first thing I thought of was Liao Yanxi.And Liao Yanxi was also very pleasantly surprised by the young master's sudden return. The four years have made him mature a lot. The two talked all night and talked about many things after parting. The young man's heart is full of ideals for this country and the nation.Xia Dongsheng wholeheartedly wanted to apply the knowledge he learned in the West to the development of his own country, hoping to contribute to the country, and asked Liao Yanxi to help him work together.Liao Yanxi nodded with a smile, and the two made a high-five agreement with high ambitions.
Later, Xia Dongsheng was brought under the banner of the Beijing National Army because of his status as a foreigner and became a civilian officer.When he returned home wearing the national army uniform, he didn't notice at all that only Liao Yanxi frowned slightly amidst everyone's joyful praise.Not long after, the invasion and defeat of foreign enemies broke out, and Xia Dongsheng followed the troops to the theater to meet the battle in accordance with the regulations.Before parting, he entrusted his parents to Liao Yanxi to take care of them, and told him to protect the Xia family and wait for him to come back.However, what everyone didn't expect was that the foreign enemies were powerful and elite, and the domestic army was completely unable to resist, and retreated steadily. In the end, even the defenders of the capital abandoned the ancient capital and fled to the south.The capital fell, and the people suffered unspeakably. Foreign enemies took a fancy to this ancient house of Xia's family and wanted to occupy it forcibly.The many servants left by the Xia family were extremely anxious, and Liao Yanxi ran around in many places, but they all suffered from the fact that no one dared to forcefully stand out at this time.At this moment, he discovered that his mother who had been separated for many years turned out to be the wife of an enemy translator. For the sake of Xia's family and Xia Dongsheng's entrustment, he had no choice but to beg his mother. Access to prison visitation opportunities.When Liao Yanxi saw Xia's mother, he realized that the enemy army did not want the Xia's mansion, but a jade Guanyin Buddha statue hidden by Xia's mother. They not only wanted to destroy the country, but also destroyed the thousand-year-old culture of this country.Xia's mother regards death as home, and resolutely refuses to hand over the Emerald Avalokitesvara.But the enemy army is bound to win, and they even did not hesitate to use severe punishment to treat a woman over [-] years old, with a vicious heart.Xia's mother was worried that she would not be able to bear more torture and would eventually be unable to keep the secret, so she begged Liao Yanxi to find poison for herself, so that she could die quietly so as to keep this national treasure of the Xia family.
Liao Yanxi refused to agree, so Xia's mother begged bitterly, persecuting him with years of love, asking him to help her not to suffer any more.In desperation, Liao Yanxi found the poison with tears in his eyes, and sent away the elder who loved him very much since he was a child.After Xia's mother died, the enemy had no choice but to let Xia's servants go.Liao Yanxi took Xia's servants to stay in the mansion.Eight years later, the domestic army won the war of resistance and the enemy was finally driven out of the country.While all the people were celebrating, Xia Dongsheng, who had not heard from him for many years, returned to his hometown. He was happy to reunite with his family, but found that his parents had passed away, and the ancestral home he grew up in was no longer a memory. The gunfire of the war destroyed many buildings with historical significance in this ancient city, even the Xia family was not spared, dilapidated scenes can be seen everywhere.
The National Army took over the capital, and many old things were revealed.After the defeat of the enemy, Liao Yanxi's stepfather, who was an interpreter, failed to escape, and he and his mother were arrested and imprisoned.After investigating the case, they found out the cause of Xia Dongsheng's mother's death.Dongsheng, who is now a major officer of the National Army, is highly valued, and his mother's tragedy is naturally treated specially.But they never expected that the case would be investigated all the way, and finally Liao Yanxi would be involved.
In the prison, Xia Dongsheng looked coldly at Liao Yanxi, who was beaten and beaten on the ground across the prison door.
"Did you kill my mother?"
Liao Yanxi forced his sanity to glance at him, but slightly hooked the corners of his lips.
"Liao Yanxi." Dongsheng roared angrily, tears streaming down the corners of his eyes uncontrollably.
"Dongsheng, will you kill me?" Liao Yanxi closed his eyes.
Xia Dongsheng left angrily, and the military department has decided to execute Liao Yanxi soon.But it never occurred to him that late the next night, a group of men in black sneaked into the prison and robbed Liao Yanxi. Xia Dongsheng led the army to chase him all the way, but in the end he was nowhere to be found.
It seems that where there are people, there will always be wars, but the eight-year war against foreign enemies has just ended, and the domestic war has broken out in an all-round way.The National Army and another political party continued to fight, and the people were again ravaged by the flames of war and suffered unspeakably.However, what people did not expect was that in the war against foreign enemies, another party won the hearts of the people because of its rigorous military management for the sake of the people.This time the confrontation between the two political parties has been harassed by non-government forces, and the people's hearts and minds are what everyone hopes for.In just three years, the National Army was forced to retreat to isolated overseas islands in order to fight again.
The troops led by Xia Dongsheng were the last part of the evacuation. While resisting the opponent's attack, they also had to keep the safety of the evacuees behind, and they were exhausted.In the end, their troops failed, and all the soldiers except those who died in battle were captured and imprisoned.
One day, two soldiers came and took him to an interrogation room, saying that their chief wanted to see him.Xia Dongsheng was already prepared to die, but he never expected that the person who appeared in front of him was actually Liao Yanxi who escaped three years ago.
"So you belong to them."
"I have already been, before you returned to China."
"..."
"Liao Yanxi, let me ask you, did you kill my mother?"
"...if you think it is, then it is."
"You bastard!"
Liao Yanxi didn't say anything more, turned around and left.It didn't take long for the outside world to report that a unit of the National Army had died in battle. On the death list, the word Xia Dongsheng deeply caught Liao Yanxi's eyes.
A month later, at the pier by the sea late at night, a cargo ship bound for the port city was waiting there.
Xia Dongsheng looked at the silent man standing in front of him with a complicated expression.
"Why did you let me go?"
"The Xia family is kind to me."
"Stop fooling me with those bullshit Ende."
Liao Yanxi paused, then pursed his lips slightly, "Dongsheng, let's go!"
Xia Dongsheng narrowed his eyes and grabbed his collar, "Liao Yanxi, let me ask you one last time, did you kill my mother?"
"If you think it is, then it is." Liao Yanxi still said the same ambiguous words.
For some reason, his calm expression made Xia Dongsheng feel a surge of anger, and he raised his fist and slammed it on Liao Yanxi's face.The opponent was beaten to the side of the head by him, leaving blood on the corner of his lips.
"Liao Yanxi, do you remember that we once agreed to use my knowledge and skills to contribute to the development of this country. I have been working hard to fulfill our agreement. I almost missed it so many times on the battlefield. I died, but thinking of this agreement, thinking of my parents, I persisted. But you ruined all of this with your own hands."
Liao Yanxi looked at him silently without saying a word.
Xia Dongsheng smiled bitterly, "It turns out that I am the only one who cares about this agreement." After speaking, he turned around and jumped on the cargo ship, "I don't want to see you again for the rest of my life."
Liao Yanxi stood at the pier, watching the freighter slowly go away, his eyes were deep and dark...
..............................
The lights in the venue gradually brightened, and the scene of the last cargo ship leaving was still playing on the big screen. Liao Yanxi's magnetic voice came slowly.
"This country needs a better and more complete political party to ensure that the people live and work in peace and contentment. It's not that I don't remember our agreement. But I also have the belief in my heart. The day I joined the party, I made an oath to fight for the country and the people for the rest of my life. Dongsheng, I know in your heart that you also hope that this country can be prosperous and strong. I will definitely do this for you. I swear by the soul of a soldier that the people on this land will not have to suffer from the fire of war. , can be healthy and prosperous.”
As soon as the voice fell, there was a wave of applause in the venue. After watching the brief introduction of the film, which was condensed into 5 minutes, everyone could hardly restrain the excitement and sadness in their hearts.
On the red carpet side, Shen Weiting happened to sign his name on the autograph board and walked to the hostess.
"What a coincidence, Feng Feng, who starred in the role of Xia Dongsheng in "Soul of the Army" just talked with me, and we also said that we are looking forward to the performance of "Soul of the Army" tonight. I didn't expect 'Liao Yanxi' to come to us in a short while Here we come."
Shen Weiting nodded with a smile, "Probably because he fought too hard with Xia Dongsheng in "Soul of the Army" and finally failed to win, hurry up to win!"
"Hehe, Wei Ting really likes to joke. We all know that Liao Yanxi is the most calm and calm man." Saying that, the hostess made an 'excited' expression, "He is my male god!"
"Really?" Shen Weiting asked in surprise.
The hostess nodded, and took Wei Ting's arms to face the media on both sides of the red carpet, "Of course, I just seized the opportunity and let me take a photo with my idol." She said, and made a very cute expression.
Shen Weiting always smiled lightly and behaved gracefully.After the joking greetings ended, the hostess started to get to the point, "Hehe, seeing Wei Ting's appearance, it's like Yanxi possessed a body. I always think of the scene where you lead troops to fight on the battlefield."
"Yes, when I received this book, what I liked the most was Liao Yanxi's love and sincerity for the country, which moved me very much." Shen Weiting said sincerely.
"We Weiting have always been very positive male gods. We never thought we would be so patriotic. It is really worth learning from us." The hostess praised.
Shen Weiting thanked her with a smile, and the hostess continued: "Then please invite Weiting to rest in the infield first, and look forward to your performance tonight!"
"Thank you." Shen Weiting nodded, turned and walked towards the infield.
The red carpet of the Plum and Bamboo Awards tonight is star-studded. After Shen Weiting left, several heavyweight male and female guests came one after another. They are all important figures in the domestic and even international entertainment circles.The hostess was calm and calm, with a fun and humorous hosting style, which made all the big names burst into laughter, and the atmosphere of the venue was very good.
After a male guest left, a red sports car parked at the other end of the red carpet, and two people could be seen from the open roof.The hostess lady opened the door of the driver's seat, and Yun Tianhe, who was wearing a dark red black-collar dress and a bow tie of the same color, came down.Just when everyone thought he was going to walk forward, he turned to the other side, took over from the hostess lady to open the car door, and let the people on the other side get out.
All kinds of media not far away were curious about what kind of person would allow Yun Tianhe, the boss of the leading film and television company in the entertainment industry, the dignified Qiu family's young master, to open the door for him with such condescension.When the two people in the distance walked side by side, the reporters almost forgot to press the shutter and stared at them blankly.
"This... this is..." The hostess on the autograph stage was also stunned, and she didn't realize for a long time that she should say some greetings at this moment.
"Lieutenant General Ziyin of Haicheng Criminal Investigation Section, this is a politician, so be careful when you speak." The director's voice came from the invisible earphone.
It was the first time in my hosting career that I faced such a big person. The hostess was a little overwhelmed, and hurriedly calmed down, with a warm smile on her face again.
"Wow! I think the two who are coming now must be what everyone is looking forward to. President Yun and General Zi are here. Our party scene is really full of splendor!" The hostess took the lead in applauding. The audience suddenly came back to their senses and hurriedly applauded.
"Welcome, welcome to President Yun and General Zi." The hostesses shook hands with the two who walked up to the signature stage, and motioned for the hostess to hand over the signature pen.
Yun Tianhe took the initiative to refuse the signature for Zi Yin, and walked up to sign the two names side by side on the signature board.Zi Yin stood aside, just watching his behavior indifferently, a pair of pitch-black eyes against the colorful lights of the venue, were as bright as a sky full of stars.
Facing such a middle-aged man who still looks calm and elegant, the hostess was a little dazed for a moment, looking at him with a blushing face, her heart pounding.
"Hello." Yun Tianhe, who had already signed his name at some point, walked between the two of them, quietly blocked the admiring sight of the hostess, and greeted him with a light smile.
The hostess was startled by his stare, quickly put away her irrational thoughts, and said with a professional smile: "President Yun can come to the Plum and Bamboo Awards Gala, I believe that many of our artists are very happy Woolen cloth."
"It's my honor to be invited to participate in the Plum and Bamboo Awards." Yun Tianhe spoke and behaved politely, showing a refined and gentlemanly demeanor.
The hostess held the microphone and said with a smile: "President Yun has carefully managed Hanrong Entertainment for so many years, and he has really brought us many excellent works and excellent artists. For example, the best film we have been nominated for this time, "Army "Soul" was invested and filmed by Han Rong. And our Feng Feng and Ting Ting, who performed outstandingly in this film, got the chance to compete for the best actor title because of this, all thanks to Mr. Yun."
"You are too kind. Artists' outstanding performances are the result of their own hard work, and a good film and television work cannot be just the credit of the producer and investors. This is also due to those in front of and behind the scenes. We, Han Rong, are just providing a platform for everyone to develop their talents." Yun Tianhe responded calmly.
The hostess was overwhelmed by his elegant charm, and said sincerely: "Mr. Yun is really humble and polite. You see, this year is coming to an end again. I have been busy for so long. Does Mr. Yun have any wishes? Also and Let's all talk."
"Hmm..." Yun Tianhe hesitated for a moment, and out of the corner of his eyes, he caught sight of the man who was still standing quietly, and suddenly a sly light flashed in his eyes, "I have been running Hanrong for so many years, and I have never had time to relax. If you say The last wish of the year is probably to take a quick trip with my best friends."
After he finished speaking, he looked sideways at Zi Yin beside him, his eyes and expression were full of watery gentleness that could not be ignored.The hostess was stunned on the spot, with her mouth slightly open, not knowing what to say next.And Ziyin met his smiling eyes in astonishment, and couldn't believe that this man actually said such a sentence in front of everyone.
The media around the red carpet have long been tempered and refined, and everyone has a pair of eyes that are good at spotting ambiguity.Seeing the picture in front of me, I immediately grasped this moment, and the camera with the flash light kept shooting, recording this once-in-a-century scene.
"Eh..." The director's reminder came from the hostess's earphones. She hurriedly came back to her senses, put on a stiff smile, and said to Yun Tianhe, "Hehe, it's really fun to travel in such a beautiful autumn." It's a pleasant thing. Then I wish Mr. Yun a happy trip, first invite Mr. Yun and General Zi to rest in the infield, and our party will begin soon."
Yun Tianhe nodded, and walked slowly towards the infield with Ziyin under the amazed eyes of the crowd.
In the earphones, there was a sigh of exhaustion from the director, "Master, you really dare to say anything!"
The hostess looked at the back of the two of them leaving side by side, unable to recover for a long time...
09
The infield of the awards ceremony was gorgeously arranged, with flowers of various colors adorning every corner, and the fragrance of flowers filled the venue.The colorful lights kept flickering, illuminating the gorgeous makeup and dazzling jewelry decorations of the guests, and even the luxurious dresses on their bodies reflected the dazzling light under the lights.
Shen Weiting was sitting on his seat, with a calm and smiling expression on the surface, but he clenched his writhing hands tightly, revealing his inner anxiety and worry.It has been nearly five days, and their search still has no clue. The longer it takes, the worse the result will be. He no longer dares to imagine, what should he do if he can't find it?That person... what should I do?
Looking towards the place where the man was sitting in the distance, he really saw the other party's seemingly unintentional inquiring gaze, and after seeing him shake his head silently, sadness and despair flashed in his eyes instantly.The hands on the lapped knees were tightly clenched, otherwise he didn't know if he could still sit here pretending nothing had happened.
'Where did you go? ' he closed his eyes and said in his mind.
Suddenly, he heard the familiar sound of smacking his lips in his ears, just like the countless times before, he smacked his mouth in satisfaction after eating in that person's arms.Shen Weiting suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the source of the sound.
He took a breath in astonishment, and looked at the face that came into his eyes.
"precious……"
"Hush!" Ning Zhiyuan, who was holding the ball, stretched out his index finger and pressed it to his lips to make a silent gesture. An Yichen who was beside him calmly glanced behind him, behind their row of special guest seats. , exactly three or four consecutive rows of media seats.
Shen Weiting immediately retracted the remaining word clearly, and just looked at Qiuqiu who was held in Ning Zhiyuan's arms with a kind of joyful eyes that were lost and found.
"He's fine." An Yichen whispered.
Shen Weiting turned around, suppressed the choked hoarseness in his throat, and said, "Thank you."
After finishing speaking, he looked not far away, and sure enough, he saw that the person also noticed Qiuqiu who was hugged by Ning Zhiyuan, and he almost couldn't help getting up for a moment and was about to rush over, but fortunately, he was stopped by the clever assistant He's out of control.
"Crack!" Seeing his father whom he hadn't seen for a long time, Qiuqiu danced happily, standing on Ning Zhiyuan's lap and squatting, as if dancing.
An Yichen teasingly scratched his chin, which made the little guy laugh "hehe".
"Wow, so cute, are you a relative of Young Master Ning?" A sharp-eyed reporter behind him approached and asked with a smile.
Ning Zhiyuan glanced at her coldly, looked at Qiuqiu in his arms, and suddenly said in surprise, "This is my son."
(⊙o⊙) Ah!
Not only the reporter who asked the question just now, but everyone around Ning Zhiyuan who heard this sentence showed shocked expressions, even Shen Weiting who was sitting in the front row looked back at him in astonishment.
An Yichen's temples twitched, and countless black lines slipped down. He took a look at this blunt guy, and turned his face away wishing that he didn't know this person.
In the next moment, the flashlights in the media seats behind him kept flashing, and the sound of shutters being pressed filled my ears.There is hardly any suspense. Tomorrow morning, the front pages of major domestic newspapers will definitely be the news of 'the second son of the Ning family has an illegitimate child'.
Helplessly looking at the sky and rolling his eyes, An Yichen cast a reassuring look at Shen Weiting, the other party nodded slightly and turned away.Soon, the gorgeous and bright main lights of the venue slowly dimmed, and the colorful searchlights on the walls on both sides fired at the stage, and the music started, and the Plum and Bamboo Awards Gala slowly opened...
After a melodious melody, two young and beautiful male and female hosts stepped onto the stage and opened with a humorous hosting style, enlivening the atmosphere on the stage and in the guest seats.The party went very smoothly. Under the deliberate arrangement of the preparatory team, the usual opening speech given by Mo Fanbin was replaced by the stage of a very popular idol group.Although many people in the circle were puzzled by this change, the uninformed audience in the back row were very satisfied with this program, screaming and cheering one after another.As the lively and joyful atmosphere of the party heated up, the major awards that people paid attention to were also announced one by one.Some are well-received, and some are not.However, regardless of gain or loss, people sat in the guest seats with perfect smiles to accept every pursuit of the camera, and tried their best to show their most beautiful side in front of the audience.
"Okay, I was really moved by the Best Documentary Award just now! Seeing the scenes captured by the crew in such a dangerous environment really shocked us." The hostess wiped the corners of her eyes and said with a smile .
The male host nodded and said, "Isn't it? When I was chatting with their director in the audience just now, I said that many staff members were infected with diseases at that time, but for this film, I still persevered. Jia!"
"Yes!" The hostess sighed with emotion, and said: "It also depends on the hard work of many film and television workers day and night, so that many excellent film and television works can be presented in front of us today. And what we can't see They are really worthy of our praise." She took the lead in clapping, and the guests in the audience also clapped gracefully, and the camera passed by Everywhere, everyone had smiles of admiration on their faces.
"That's right, day and night." The male host nodded movedly, then changed the topic and said with a smile: "It's a coincidence that I heard a very nice song most often, and its name just happened to be day and night."
"really?"
"Of course, and the tune is melodious, very nice."
"Wow, then I really want to hear it."
"Haha, don't tell me, today we really have this opportunity to listen to this beautiful song, because the singer of this song is sitting in our auditorium right now, our Shen Weiting." , the male host pointed out, the lights and the camera followed, just in time to record Shen Weiting's perfect and hearty smile.
"Okay, let's invite Weiting to sing the song "Day and Night" for everyone." The hostess made an invitation gesture, Shen Weiting slowly got up, and walked towards the back of the stage with the staff.
The curtain fell slowly, and in less than a moment, a piece of music slowly opened through the curtain, and a melodious male voice like a violin came along with the rising curtain.
The dark night invades the bright first quarter moon,
Whiteness is shrouded in darkness,
I cannot see the light of dawn;
Day and night, day and night,
I am struggling to find the dawn of life,
until your arrival.
Searching and waiting in the world,
You flow into my heart like the morning dew.
cat-like cunning, childish naughtiness,
They are the most beautiful movements in my heart!
……
This song was originally sung by Shen Weiting, Xia Lang and Chu Huaizhou, but Xia Lang died unexpectedly, Yun Tianhe temporarily changed his mind, and Shen Weiting sang it alone.Now he not only has to accurately grasp his own scale, but also perfectly sings the scale that has been completely adjusted to cater to the voices of the other two, which has to be regarded as a test of his singing skills.
However, what is surprising is that in the face of such a situation, Shen Weiting is still calm and unhurried, and there is no flaw in the transition between different scales, making it impossible for people to hear that this song was originally prepared for three people.And not only that, he can also perfectly interpret Sharan's bass and Chu Huaizhou's alto with his own singing skills, which is admirable.
Ning Zhiyuan and An Yichen sat under the stage and listened carefully, feeling a little admiration for this man in their hearts.Qiuqiu, who was held in Ning Zhiyuan's arms, heard his father's nice voice, bouncing up and down "ahhh" in line, as if he was accompaniment to his father.
Ning Zhiyuan was amused by him, hugged the little guy and kissed him a few times lovingly.Another person in the distance also took advantage of the dim light of the venue to secretly cast his gaze, and his eye sockets were covered with mist.
When Shen Weiting's performance ended, everyone on the stage applauded. On the second floor and the last auditorium, his fans screamed his name over and over again, and were deeply moved by every moment this man gave them. a joy.
"Wow, I'm so satisfied after listening to it. This song is really good." Looking at Shen Weiting who stepped down from the stage, the hostess smiled and said.
"That's right, it's said that this song ranked in the top three on the first day it was released, that's amazing!" the male host said.
The hostess nodded and said with a smile: "But once you mentioned that you are great, I thought of something even more powerful related to Ting Ting."
"Oh, you're talking about "Soul of the Army", which was just released a few days ago!"
"That's right, my best friend and I went to see it, and we were moved to tears."
"Yes, but to say that "Soul of the Army" is amazing, apart from the excellent acting skills of the actors, our director Fang Xiaosheng and screenwriter Chen Shuo are the most amazing. It is truly amazing that we can present such an excellent work in front of us." It’s amazing.” As he spoke, he gave a thumbs up to the audience, and the camera shot to see director Fang Xiaosheng and screenwriter Chen Shuo, who was about 50 years old, smiled modestly and made a polite gesture towards the stage.
The male and female hosts also nodded slightly in response, and then the hostess said: "When it comes to "Soul of the Army", I remembered it. We have been busy listening to songs and chatting, and forgot to present the awards."
"Hehe, yes, then let us invite the famous director Zhang Zehan and the old artist Ms. Mei Nianqiu to present us the best film award of the Plum and Bamboo Awards."
There was a round of applause accompanied by the regular entrance music, and an old man in a retro blue evening dress walked out with a middle-aged man on his arm.After a simple exchange of pleasantries, the two opened the list of awards handed over by the Miss Etiquette.
Ms. Mei Nianqiu looked at the name on it, smiled and said: "I think, this award is given to this film, it must be what everyone expects."
Director Zhang Zehan glanced sideways, and nodded in agreement, "That's right, this is really a movie that moved us." Then, he raised his hand towards the center of the stage, "Let us watch big screen."
10,
The venue was completely dark, and everyone's attention was focused on the big screen in the center of the stage.
The picture unfolded, showing a vast ocean, the camera gradually zoomed in, a large old-fashioned cruise ship slowly sailed into the port, and all the people filed down.Suddenly, a pair of feet appeared at the door of the cabin where people came and went. They were slender and straight. They were wearing leather shoes that were very fashionable in the Republic of China period. The straight trousers were exquisitely made, and they were very valuable at first glance.Then, the camera slowly zoomed up, a suit of the same color as the trousers, a white and clean shirt, and a slender neck.
The last thing that catches people's eyes is a handsome face, clear eyes, flying eyebrows, high nose bridge and thin lips. There is no part of this man's face that is not delicate and no part is moving. .Those who followed him off the boat couldn't help but look sideways, their eyes full of envy.
Not far away, a car stopped at the gate of the pier, and a young man dressed in a short shirt, trousers, and cloth shoes came down and waved at him.
"Master!"
The man saw him and walked over with a smile.
"You are back, the master and wife are looking forward to it every day." The young man took the luggage in his hand, opened the door and let people get into the car, while he took the luggage and sat in the passenger seat.
The car left the pier and drove into the street. It has not come back for many years. The city has also undergone earth-shaking changes. The man leaned on the window and watched the street shops and crowds moving back and forth, with the excitement and touch of finally returning to his hometown on his face.
The car drove more than half of the city, and finally stopped in front of a quaint mansion in a secluded street. Two servants and the old lady greeted them. When they opened the door, they were very happy to see the people coming.
"Young master, the young master is back." The old lady shouted loudly with a smile while holding the man's hand and walking inside.
Soon the two of them walked through the front yard and came to the hall. A middle-aged couple in fancy clothes was sitting in the high hall. When they saw the man appearing, they stood up excitedly.
"Dongsheng." The woman hugged her son, tears streaming down her eyes instantly.
"Mom." Xia Dongsheng couldn't help being moved by his mother's warm embrace, and he pursed his lips to hold back the tears in his eyes.
"You are back." Although the father on the side was not as emotional as his wife, the emotion in his eyes still revealed his longing for his son.
The Xia family in the capital city is a scholarly family. During the Manchu and Qing dynasties, there were children who were officials in the court.Later, when the Manchu Qing Dynasty fell and the Republic of China was established, Father Xia resolutely turned down his request for a high post in the government of the Republic of China, shutting himself at home and no longer caring about political party affairs.But Xia Dongsheng, the only son of the Xia family, is a young man with ideals and revenge. He does not want to live in a deep house with his father to avoid the turmoil of the country all his life, so he secretly leaves a letter and goes to England to study with a few like-minded friends. Going to school, I didn't ask for a penny from my family for so many years. I earned money by working on my own, and finally returned to China after studying.
"You kid, you didn't tell mom when you left, do you know how worried I am?"
Xia Dongsheng smiled heartily, with a bit of a childish look in front of his mother, "Mom, you know, my son has always wanted to go out and see the outside world."
"You!"
Now that my son has returned from his studies, there is no better reward than this.All the worries in Mother Xia's heart disappeared after seeing her son's radiant appearance. Naturally, she couldn't do anything about her baby son acting like a baby.
The family stopped scolding, and Xia Dongsheng felt much more at ease.After chatting with my parents for a long time, I left the hall with the excuse of being tired, and promised to have a reunion dinner with my parents in the evening.
After walking a long way down the corridor, he asked the followers beside him in a low voice, "Where is he?"
The follower smiled clearly and pointed to the backyard, "It's still the same place."
Xia Dongsheng smiled happily, threw the clothes on his shoulders to him, and ran towards the backyard.All the way back from the porch of Xia's mansion is Mrs. Xia's garden.Xia's mother, who was born in the noble family of the royal family, likes all kinds of flowers the most, so she brought a gardener from home to take care of the flowers in the garden for herself.Only four years ago the gardener died of tuberculosis.One son is left alone, and now he takes over his father's work to take care of the garden for Xia's family.
Xia Dongsheng rushed all the way there, and he saw the man in clean work clothes standing among the flowers, tending flowers and plants.
"Liao Yanxi!"
Hearing the familiar shout behind him, Yanxi stopped what he was doing and turned around. Under the sun, Xia Dongsheng, who was wearing a clean white shirt, had a bright and bright smile. His handsome facial contour seemed to be covered with a layer of gold rim by the sun, which was extremely gorgeous.
"Dongsheng." The flower shovel in his hand fell to the ground, Liao Yanxi was surprised.
Father Liao had been working in the palace since he was young, and after he got married and had a son, he came to the Xia family with the eldest lady. He always regarded everyone in the Xia family as his master, and he loved this young master even more.Therefore, since childhood, Liao Yanxi was instilled by his father in the concept of being loyal to the master and obeying the young master.But Liao's mother looked down on Liao's father's thinking very much, thinking that Liao's father was worthless and would only be a slave. When Liao Yanxi was seven years old, he simply left home and ran away with others.Xia Dongsheng's parents are kind-hearted people. They felt that Liao's father had worked hard for many years, so they raised Liao Yanxi and Xia Dongsheng together as companions. They used to eat the same food and wear Xia Dongsheng. Clothes that are not worn are almost treated as half a young master's treatment.Liao's father was grateful for the great kindness of the master and worked even harder.However, he still couldn't bear the hard work all year round. Liao Yanxi died of tuberculosis when he was 16 years old.After his father died, Liao Yanxi left Xia Dongsheng's yard and returned to the garden in the back garden. He took over his father's work and continued to take care of flowers and plants for Xia's family, still doing his best.Xia Dongsheng has been angry about this for a long time. Having been educated in the new school since childhood, he also can't understand Liao Yanxi always treating himself as a slave at a young age, but every time he gets angry and scolds him, he just smiles and deals with it, and turns around. He continued to be his own gardener.Xia Dongsheng got angry later, and simply ignored him, and went to study in England with a few friends.
After years of separation, the annoyance in my heart towards this childhood playmate has long since dissipated. When I returned home, besides my parents, the first thing I thought of was Liao Yanxi.And Liao Yanxi was also very pleasantly surprised by the young master's sudden return. The four years have made him mature a lot. The two talked all night and talked about many things after parting. The young man's heart is full of ideals for this country and the nation.Xia Dongsheng wholeheartedly wanted to apply the knowledge he learned in the West to the development of his own country, hoping to contribute to the country, and asked Liao Yanxi to help him work together.Liao Yanxi nodded with a smile, and the two made a high-five agreement with high ambitions.
Later, Xia Dongsheng was brought under the banner of the Beijing National Army because of his status as a foreigner and became a civilian officer.When he returned home wearing the national army uniform, he didn't notice at all that only Liao Yanxi frowned slightly amidst everyone's joyful praise.Not long after, the invasion and defeat of foreign enemies broke out, and Xia Dongsheng followed the troops to the theater to meet the battle in accordance with the regulations.Before parting, he entrusted his parents to Liao Yanxi to take care of them, and told him to protect the Xia family and wait for him to come back.However, what everyone didn't expect was that the foreign enemies were powerful and elite, and the domestic army was completely unable to resist, and retreated steadily. In the end, even the defenders of the capital abandoned the ancient capital and fled to the south.The capital fell, and the people suffered unspeakably. Foreign enemies took a fancy to this ancient house of Xia's family and wanted to occupy it forcibly.The many servants left by the Xia family were extremely anxious, and Liao Yanxi ran around in many places, but they all suffered from the fact that no one dared to forcefully stand out at this time.At this moment, he discovered that his mother who had been separated for many years turned out to be the wife of an enemy translator. For the sake of Xia's family and Xia Dongsheng's entrustment, he had no choice but to beg his mother. Access to prison visitation opportunities.When Liao Yanxi saw Xia's mother, he realized that the enemy army did not want the Xia's mansion, but a jade Guanyin Buddha statue hidden by Xia's mother. They not only wanted to destroy the country, but also destroyed the thousand-year-old culture of this country.Xia's mother regards death as home, and resolutely refuses to hand over the Emerald Avalokitesvara.But the enemy army is bound to win, and they even did not hesitate to use severe punishment to treat a woman over [-] years old, with a vicious heart.Xia's mother was worried that she would not be able to bear more torture and would eventually be unable to keep the secret, so she begged Liao Yanxi to find poison for herself, so that she could die quietly so as to keep this national treasure of the Xia family.
Liao Yanxi refused to agree, so Xia's mother begged bitterly, persecuting him with years of love, asking him to help her not to suffer any more.In desperation, Liao Yanxi found the poison with tears in his eyes, and sent away the elder who loved him very much since he was a child.After Xia's mother died, the enemy had no choice but to let Xia's servants go.Liao Yanxi took Xia's servants to stay in the mansion.Eight years later, the domestic army won the war of resistance and the enemy was finally driven out of the country.While all the people were celebrating, Xia Dongsheng, who had not heard from him for many years, returned to his hometown. He was happy to reunite with his family, but found that his parents had passed away, and the ancestral home he grew up in was no longer a memory. The gunfire of the war destroyed many buildings with historical significance in this ancient city, even the Xia family was not spared, dilapidated scenes can be seen everywhere.
The National Army took over the capital, and many old things were revealed.After the defeat of the enemy, Liao Yanxi's stepfather, who was an interpreter, failed to escape, and he and his mother were arrested and imprisoned.After investigating the case, they found out the cause of Xia Dongsheng's mother's death.Dongsheng, who is now a major officer of the National Army, is highly valued, and his mother's tragedy is naturally treated specially.But they never expected that the case would be investigated all the way, and finally Liao Yanxi would be involved.
In the prison, Xia Dongsheng looked coldly at Liao Yanxi, who was beaten and beaten on the ground across the prison door.
"Did you kill my mother?"
Liao Yanxi forced his sanity to glance at him, but slightly hooked the corners of his lips.
"Liao Yanxi." Dongsheng roared angrily, tears streaming down the corners of his eyes uncontrollably.
"Dongsheng, will you kill me?" Liao Yanxi closed his eyes.
Xia Dongsheng left angrily, and the military department has decided to execute Liao Yanxi soon.But it never occurred to him that late the next night, a group of men in black sneaked into the prison and robbed Liao Yanxi. Xia Dongsheng led the army to chase him all the way, but in the end he was nowhere to be found.
It seems that where there are people, there will always be wars, but the eight-year war against foreign enemies has just ended, and the domestic war has broken out in an all-round way.The National Army and another political party continued to fight, and the people were again ravaged by the flames of war and suffered unspeakably.However, what people did not expect was that in the war against foreign enemies, another party won the hearts of the people because of its rigorous military management for the sake of the people.This time the confrontation between the two political parties has been harassed by non-government forces, and the people's hearts and minds are what everyone hopes for.In just three years, the National Army was forced to retreat to isolated overseas islands in order to fight again.
The troops led by Xia Dongsheng were the last part of the evacuation. While resisting the opponent's attack, they also had to keep the safety of the evacuees behind, and they were exhausted.In the end, their troops failed, and all the soldiers except those who died in battle were captured and imprisoned.
One day, two soldiers came and took him to an interrogation room, saying that their chief wanted to see him.Xia Dongsheng was already prepared to die, but he never expected that the person who appeared in front of him was actually Liao Yanxi who escaped three years ago.
"So you belong to them."
"I have already been, before you returned to China."
"..."
"Liao Yanxi, let me ask you, did you kill my mother?"
"...if you think it is, then it is."
"You bastard!"
Liao Yanxi didn't say anything more, turned around and left.It didn't take long for the outside world to report that a unit of the National Army had died in battle. On the death list, the word Xia Dongsheng deeply caught Liao Yanxi's eyes.
A month later, at the pier by the sea late at night, a cargo ship bound for the port city was waiting there.
Xia Dongsheng looked at the silent man standing in front of him with a complicated expression.
"Why did you let me go?"
"The Xia family is kind to me."
"Stop fooling me with those bullshit Ende."
Liao Yanxi paused, then pursed his lips slightly, "Dongsheng, let's go!"
Xia Dongsheng narrowed his eyes and grabbed his collar, "Liao Yanxi, let me ask you one last time, did you kill my mother?"
"If you think it is, then it is." Liao Yanxi still said the same ambiguous words.
For some reason, his calm expression made Xia Dongsheng feel a surge of anger, and he raised his fist and slammed it on Liao Yanxi's face.The opponent was beaten to the side of the head by him, leaving blood on the corner of his lips.
"Liao Yanxi, do you remember that we once agreed to use my knowledge and skills to contribute to the development of this country. I have been working hard to fulfill our agreement. I almost missed it so many times on the battlefield. I died, but thinking of this agreement, thinking of my parents, I persisted. But you ruined all of this with your own hands."
Liao Yanxi looked at him silently without saying a word.
Xia Dongsheng smiled bitterly, "It turns out that I am the only one who cares about this agreement." After speaking, he turned around and jumped on the cargo ship, "I don't want to see you again for the rest of my life."
Liao Yanxi stood at the pier, watching the freighter slowly go away, his eyes were deep and dark...
..............................
The lights in the venue gradually brightened, and the scene of the last cargo ship leaving was still playing on the big screen. Liao Yanxi's magnetic voice came slowly.
"This country needs a better and more complete political party to ensure that the people live and work in peace and contentment. It's not that I don't remember our agreement. But I also have the belief in my heart. The day I joined the party, I made an oath to fight for the country and the people for the rest of my life. Dongsheng, I know in your heart that you also hope that this country can be prosperous and strong. I will definitely do this for you. I swear by the soul of a soldier that the people on this land will not have to suffer from the fire of war. , can be healthy and prosperous.”
As soon as the voice fell, there was a wave of applause in the venue. After watching the brief introduction of the film, which was condensed into 5 minutes, everyone could hardly restrain the excitement and sadness in their hearts.
