The next day, the eighteen-year-old Zhangsun Wuji led his men to the top of the cliff and found his sister who had fainted from crying.
He later learned that his younger brother, Sun Minzhi, had fallen to his death, but he was not sad.
Back then, when her mother gave birth to Changsun Minzhi, she bled profusely and passed away a day later.
Because of this, Zhangsun Wuji was extremely sad and regarded Zhangsun Minzhi as an ominous person. Especially after Zhangsun Minzhi grew up, he only knew how to slack off and play, and was useless.
It was good that he died, lest he disgraced the Zhangsun Clan when he grew up.
When Zhangsun Wugou woke up, her beautiful eyes were dull.
When she saw her uncle Gao Shilian and her brother Zhangsun Wuji, she seemed to have gone crazy and asked them to quickly send people to find Zhangsun Minzhi.
Gao Shilian and Zhangsun Wuji looked at each other and could only do as she wished.
However, everyone in the residence knew that Mount Baiyun, where Zhangsun Wugou had gone to pick herbs, was a thousand feet high.
Falling down from the peak of the mountain meant no chance of survival!
Even if he found it, it would just be a pile of meat paste. Why did he have to do this?
Under Zhangsun Wugou's pleading, Gao Shilian agreed.
Soon, all the members of the Gao Manor were dispatched to the bottom of the cliff to search for Zhangsun Minzhi's remains.
After searching the bottom of the cliff for a whole month, there was not a single corpse.
Zhangsun Minzhi's fate was unknown!
Zhangsun Wugou sat by the window every day in a daze, watching the sun rise and set. Very quickly, he became skinny, and the usually graceful young girl had almost become a walking corpse.
All the flowers in the courtyard she lived in were moved out.
The servants in the Gao Manor were very surprised by this. In the past, Miss Zhangsun loved to plant flowers the most. Why did her personality suddenly change?
Not only the flowers, but even the paintings related to flowers hanging on the walls of the house were all torn into paper scraps.
During this period, Li Shimin, the second son of the Li family in Taiyuan, sent the Tianshan Snow Lotus.
Li Er paid a lot of money for this, asking people to go to Tianshan to pick flowers at the risk of their lives, just to make his fiancée smile.
Unfortunately, he didn't expect Zhangsun Wugou's hobbies to have changed.
However, after the incident with Zhangsun Minzhi.
From then on, flowers became the thing she hated the most.
Especially the snow lotus!
There was once when Zhangsun Wuji saw his well-educated sister tearing off the petals of the Tianshan Snow Lotus like a madwoman.
"Zhangsun Wugou, what exactly do you want?”
Zhangsun Wuji stepped forward and grabbed her, scolding angrily,""You've become like this because of a good-for-nothing younger brother. How can you marry into the Li family? How do you want me to explain to Shi Min?”
"Where did you learn all your poetry and books?”
Zhangsun Wugou only smiled apologetically in a daze. He was still obsessed with the fact that he had killed his younger brother. If he hadn't joked, he wouldn't have killed him.
Zhangsun Wuji had a splitting headache. The marriage with the Li family was imminent, what should he do?
He had high hopes for Li Shiming, but if he couldn't get married, he wouldn't be able to tie himself to the Li family, and he wouldn't be able to revive the Zhangsun family.
Thus, he could only find his aunt, Madam Gao, to persuade Zhangsun Wugou.
Mrs. Gao looked at her skinny niece."If you don't love the past, you won't let down the present. Minzhi has already left, you still have us.”
"I killed him."
Zhangsun Wugou lowered his head.
"The bottom of Mount Baiyun's cliff has been searched by your uncle, but Minzhi's corpse is nowhere to be found." Madam Gao shook her head firmly.”
"Why do you think?"
"Could it be?" A bright color finally appeared in Zhangsun Wugou's gray eyes. She couldn't help but say excitedly,""Aunt, are you saying that Min Zhi isn't dead?”
"Think about it, even if he was eaten by wolves and wild beasts, there would still be bones left behind. As long as he didn't see his bones, he couldn't be certain that he was dead.”Mrs. Gao's eyes flickered as she spoke.
Zhangsun Wugou's eyes reddened." Then where did he go? Why hasn't he come looking for me yet? Is he blaming me for not taking good care of him? Is he blaming me for lying to him?”
Mrs. Gao had already thought of a way to comfort her."Mount Baiyun is the first mountain in Luoyang. The scenery on the mountain is pleasant, and there are countless herbs and wild animals.”
"According to the Luoyang County Annals, Zuo Ci of the Eastern Han Dynasty and Ge Hong of the Eastern Jin Dynasty once cultivated in this mountain.”
"Min Zhi, this good child, maybe when she fell off the cliff, she was saved by the immortals.”
"It's not impossible for an immortal to teach him astrology, divination, alchemy, and Qimen Dunjia in his cave abode!”
Such a story was very comforting to a thirteen-year-old girl.
She was more willing to believe that her brother had been saved by an immortal.
"Then how long will it take to see him?”Zhangsun Wugou's eyes lit up.
"There's a strange man named Guigu 'zi on the Cloud-Dream Mountain. He only takes two disciples, one vertical and one horizontal.”Mrs. Gao couldn't help but feel happy when she saw that her niece was gradually regaining her vitality.
Was Aunt lying to him?
Zhangsun Wugou was silent after hearing this. Was Aunt really a lobbyist sent by his brother, or was she really saved by an immortal?
However, Madam Gao had planted a seed of hope for Zhangsun Wugou.
That night.
The thirteen-year-old Zhangsun Wugou finally took the initiative to eat. She was afraid that after her younger brother left the mountain in ten years, she would die.
After recuperating in the courtyard for three months, she finally recovered from the pain of losing her brother. She took out a scroll and traced the expression of her brother in her memory.
Every time he thought of what happened on the cliff, he would immediately cry. His tears were like raindrops that wet the painting paper, making it difficult to continue painting. It was only in the next six months that he completed the painting one after another.
From then on, the young Zhangsun Wugou sealed this matter in his heart, and her uncle Gao Shilian, aunt, and others who raised her no longer mentioned Zhangsun Minzhi.
Half a year later, she married into the Li family and became the daughter-in-law of the Li family. She gave birth to Chengqian and Tai 'er. After experiencing the changes in the Black Tortoise Sect, she became the mother of a country and became the mother of the world. These childhood memories became even more blurred.
......
He stood in the hall.
Empress Zhangsun's eyes were red from crying, and her expression was a little absent-minded. Her sealed memories were opened again.
He didn't expect to hear the name of his younger brother, Sun Minzhi, from Cheng Yaojin's mouth after fifteen years.
East market youth, eldest grandson Min Zhi?
The guilt that had been suppressed in her heart for many years rose again, causing the dignified mother of a country to cry like a child.
