Sir, I can do it!

Everything happened so fast.

When Lao Qiu and 'Changsun Ke' finished taking care of the black-clothed assassins, Zhan Yi was still holding Zhan Hong and crying.

Lao Qiu couldn't bear to turn his head away.

It took a long time before Zhan Yi calmed down.He raised his eyes blurred by tears and asked Lao Qiu, "Your Excellency already knew, didn't you?"

Lao Qiu nodded and shook his head again.He sighed: "Your mother Zhan Qiniang was trained by Emperor Wu. Although Emperor Wu established the Tongcha Mansion, he did not fully trust the officials of the two mansions. So your two brothers are Emperor Wu's spies in the Southern Mansion. Just don't wait." If he uses you, he will usurp the throne today."

"Knowing your mother's existence today, I used your mother to control your brothers in a vain attempt to monitor Nanfu. There are also people who have been placed in Nanfu now, and they have all been discovered by adults. But your brother Zhan Hui is the trump card in today's hand. Never used it lightly. That’s why my lord never noticed it. It wasn’t until my lord resigned that some clues were revealed. This time it was also my lord’s temptation, I didn’t expect..."

"I killed my brother with my own hands." Zhan Yi said in a daze.

Lao Qiu reassured: "You heard what your brother said, and he couldn't help himself in doing this. The adults did this to force him to show up. A gentleman doesn't care about two masters. Isn't this what your brother wants. It's just that he didn't There is a choice. Otherwise, depending on your brother's skill, he may not be able to avoid that sword. When carrying out this task, he already had the will to die. So Zhan Yi, this is not your fault. Your brother also I don't want you to feel guilty, he has protected you for so many years, and he doesn't want to see you like this."

Zhan Yi lowered his head, and said coldly: "Brother, he failed the mission, and those people can't find my whereabouts, how will they deal with... her?"

He couldn't even say the word 'mother'.Because in his childhood memory, there was never such a person.It was his brother who had been with him through hard training, and it was his brother who coaxed him when he couldn't bear the pain and cried while hugging the quilt.His elder brother has protected him since he was a child, but in the end his elder brother died under his own sword.

Zhan Yi sniffed, and said with a choked voice, "Old Qiu, I suddenly feel so tired. I've never done anything before. You said how hard my brother has been through these years."

Lao Qiu remained silent.People living in this world, who doesn't feel a little bit bitter.He patted Afraid Zhanyi's shoulder, and said, "Your Excellency will make arrangements. You, you can bury him."

Zhan Yi reached out to caress Zhan Hui's eyes, and murmured: "Brother, you can go at ease, I will take care of her."

He carried Zhan Hong on his back, pursed his lips, and asked Lao Qiu, "Your Excellency, can you trust me?"

Lao Qiu nodded: "It won't be long before the adults will contact you."

Zhan Yi's tense expression relaxed, and he said to Lao Qiu, "Please tell your lord, I will not let him down."

It wasn't until Zhan Yi walked away that Gu Ying, who replaced Changsun Ke, said, "My lord didn't expect this situation today. Doesn't Zhan Yi have any thoughts in his heart?"

Lao Qiu sighed: "Although he has been in love for many years, it is rare that he has a clear distinction between grievances and grievances, and he has a sincere heart. His loyalty to the adults is no less than you and me."

Gu Ying folded her hands into her sleeves, shook her head and smiled wryly, "Sometimes I feel a little envious of him."

Lao Qiu said: "Everyone has his own fate, if you envy him, why don't you know if he envies you in his heart?"

Gu Ying cast a sideways glance at Lao Qiu: "When did you become sentimental?"

Lao Qiu blew his beard and snorted coldly: "It's just a pity that my colleagues have died like this for many years. I leave the matter of Zhan Qiniang to you. She is a meticulously cultivated master by Emperor Wu. Li Huai has not done it for so many years." So much progress, it seems that he didn't dig out many secrets of Emperor Wu from Zhan Qiniang. If you can bring Zhan Qiniang out alive, you will be considered a great achievement."

Gu Ying glanced at the burden on Lao Qiu's body, and said, "You should still care about yourself. I heard that the people of Dongyue are tough, you old bones, don't fall apart."

Lao Qiu smashed his mouth and said with a smile: "Where there are interests, disputes are inevitable. When Emperor Wu was in Qi State, he was considered tyrannical for a while, but in the end it was not because of the internal friction between the princes. Compared with Qi State back then, Dongyue , It’s just that the little witch sees the big witch.” He patted Gu Ying on the shoulder, and said earnestly: “Young man, don’t always think about fighting and killing, it’s uncivilized. You need wisdom to do big things.”

Gu Ying shook his shoulders with disgust and shook off Lao Qiu's hand: "Let's leave it alone."

Lao Qiu stroked the stubble on his chin, laughed and said, "Young people are full of anger."

He weighed the burden on his shoulders: "The old man has spent half his life watching the door in Nanfu, so it's time for him to stretch his muscles."

Before leaving, Wei Xi went to see her in Yu's room, while Yu was sorting out the copied Buddhist scriptures.Seeing Wei Xi coming in, she said: "Xi'er is here, and my mother is planning to go to the Buddhist temple another day. Queen Wei believed in Buddhism before she was alive. Now that she is gone, it can be regarded as a token of her affection. After all, when she was in the Hou's mansion, she treated us Mother and son are also good."

Wei Xi smiled and said nothing.

Seeing this, Mrs. Yu said, "Xi'er is still blaming me?"

Wei Xi lowered his head and said, "Don't dare."

Mrs. Yu sighed: "Don't dare, it means that you still haven't forgiven me in your heart. Xi'er, mother has mother's difficulties, I know you don't like to hear what I say. It's just that Xi'er is going to Yanzhou. I don't know why, I'm always in a panic..."

"Since mother is worried, it's better not to go."

Yu Shi: ...

Wei Xi said: "In fact, the son's life is not that important to the mother, at least not as important as the great cause of recovering Beiyan. After all, a disabled son is not as important as a healthy grandson."

Yu Shi's heart suddenly felt like being pricked by a needle, she said with red eyes: "Why would Xi'er think so, you were born by mother's hard work, how could mother not love you."

Wei Xi raised her hand to interrupt Yu's words, and said coldly: "Mother, don't go inquiring about the Hou's mansion and the palace anymore. Especially the elder sister's children."

There was a warning in Wei Xi's eyes, and Yu's heart trembled suddenly: "You know it all."

"Mother, don't treat everyone as fools. If it weren't for the fact that our mother and son have been in the Hou Mansion for many years, do you think grandma would let go so easily? Although grandma is old, she is not a fool. Eldest sister is a member of the Hou Mansion. The jewel in the palm of his hand, Pei'er was born by the elder sister with all her life, mother knows how important this child is to the Hou family."

Yu growled, "This kid is just..." a bastard.

When meeting Wei Xi's cold eyes, Mrs. Yu couldn't say these two words.

"If Mother still wants to regain the lost land in Yanzhou, it's best not to make any moves. Father is not blind."

Mrs. Yu said: "Wei Ru is good at soldiers, has strategy and courage. If you cooperate with him, you may end up making a wedding dress for Qi."

"so what?"

Yu was silent for a moment, and said: "You are right, the reason why I have lived until today is to regain Beiyan, compared to this, anyone has to give in."

Wei Xi was not surprised.

Yu Shi looked at him and said: "You are dedicated to the Marquis's Mansion. Do you think that in Wei Ru's heart, you are more important than his great cause? He also has a mission on his shoulders. The long-cherished wish of Wei Shang and King Xianqi, the world People's peace and stability. For these, he can also sacrifice some people."

Wei Xi said: "Whenever great things are achieved, something must be abandoned."

"You understand, so why can't you understand mother?"

Wei Xi turned the wheelchair and slowly slid towards the door.He said: "Because mother is sacrificing the lives of most people to achieve a ridiculous goal. But father is using the sacrifice of a small number of people in exchange for the peace of the people all over the world."

Yu Shi's nails were embedded in her palms, her face was pale, she roared angrily: "You are not allowed to call him father!"

The voice fell, and the person has gone away.

Qin Zheng was reading the letter in the room, and when he saw Wei Xi coming back with a gloomy face, he hurriedly got up to meet him, and worriedly said, "Are you quarreling with your mother again?"

Wei Xi patted her hand and comforted her: "It's nothing. What are you looking at?"

Qin Zheng handed the letter to him, and said: "My sister-in-law has a letter. She said that she will arrange for Li Yang, and told me to take Jin'er there without worry."

Wei Xi looked at it and nodded.

Qin Zheng hesitated, and said, "Husband, do you really want to leave? I want to wait for you to come back."

Wei Xi refused: "No way. I don't know when I will be back. I don't worry about you and Jin'er being at home."

He gripped the armrest vigorously, thinking that his only three-year-old son had been instilled in Yu's head with the idea of ​​restoring the country and revenge. If he wasn't here, who knows what Yu would do by taking the opportunity.

"I don't want Jin'er to become like me, carrying those hatreds since she was sensible."

Tears filled Qin Zheng's eyelashes, wiped them with a handkerchief, nodded and said, "Okay, I will listen to my husband. I will definitely teach Jin'er to read well."

Wei Xi smiled and said, "The girls from the Qin family in Liyang are all excellent. Ah Zheng, remember, no matter what happens in the future, you must raise Jin'er well and grow up happily."

Qin Zheng nodded with tears in his eyes.

Wei Xi said again: "I will send reliable people to escort your mother and son. When you arrive at the Qin family, you can just say that I was left in the army by my father. Also, our son's name is not Murong Jin, but Wei Jin. He is the Marquis of Zhen Guo. The son of the second son of Fuwei."

Qin Zheng nodded vigorously: "Husband, you will definitely come back, right?"

Wei Xi said, "Of course."

He looked at Qin Zheng's reluctant eyes and lowered his head slightly.Thinking of how many times he tried to force Qin Zheng away after he left home from the Hou Mansion, he didn't want her to be involved.Unexpectedly, this woman seemed weak, but she was determined, and followed him to Yushan regardless of her care.No matter how difficult the journey was, she gritted her teeth and survived.

From a very young age, when he learned of his identity, he shut down all feelings.Even the people in the Hou Mansion are slightly alienated.But Qin Zheng, a woman, broke into his heart abruptly.Although he never revealed it to her.

But this time, Wei Xi looked into Qin Zheng's eyes, and said seriously: "If you have a wife like this in this life, what more can a husband ask for?"

Tears welled up in Qin Zheng's eyes, and Qin Zheng smiled with tears.She thought she would never forget this day in her life.
