The number of hidden guards is small, and although Gong Xun intends to expand, he can't be in a hurry at this moment. In addition to his extraordinary ability, the more important thing is his determination, so he won't point it out to Yu Zimo unless he is a trusted confidant.Among these people, Yu Zimo knew some of them. Except for a general who often followed Gong Xun, there were also some who were transferred from the Northern Garrison Army. Xun's mouth was still in his heart, and the word "confidant" was only given to Yu Zimo.Therefore, although Zhaoqingjian is a place where dragons and tigers are hidden, they are 100% respectful to Yu Zimo. That kind of obedience is second only to Gong Xun, but Yu Zimo doesn't know it.

Yu Zimo sat in the hall, asked some daily trivial matters, and asked people to follow up on the situation of the Chen family and Gongjun after the abolition of Dali Temple. After reading some daily official documents, he went back home. Xun was planning to fight for the throne, but now Gong Xun and the emperor are suddenly idle.

The sun was slanting, and Yu Zimo returned home, still one person, one table and one bowl of chopsticks. When he fell asleep, there was a safe place surrounded by a thick quilt on his side.

As Gong Xun expected, the trial at Dali Temple did not make much progress.Both Chen and Gongjun didn’t know each other, but what Gongjun said was “I don’t know, I really don’t know!” and what Chen said was “He, Gongxun, didn’t serve the heavens. The Jade Seal of Chuanguo is the proof, if you torture me as a woman, why would the former king not give him the Jade Seal if he really passed on the throne to him!"

Yu Zimo listened to his subordinate's report with a blank expression, and finally ordered without lifting his eyes from the confession: "Let the Dali Temple be withdrawn, you go and ask."

At noon the next day, Yu Zimo went to the prison in person.The people on the torture rack were stained with blood, and if there were no weapons hanging their hands, they would have been limp on the ground.

Gong Jun's hair was unkempt, not only mixed with straw, but also sticky with undried blood, which had already lost the luster that black hair should have.The blue veins on his hands were not due to force or anger, but the days of torture had left his already weak body with only skin and bones, so that the already sickly white skin could no longer cover the blue color of the blood vessels.

When Yu Zimo entered, the jailer was pouring cold water on Gong Jun’s body. This method of waking up people was useless to Gong Jun. Gong Jun still lowered his head, letting the cold liquid flow down his cheeks. His body was drooping, lifeless, and the drenched clothes were tightly attached to his thin body. Through such wrapping, his ribs could be clearly counted.

Yu Zimo's eyebrows twitched unconsciously, and he nodded in response to the greeting from his subordinate "Master Yu" in prison. He took a step forward, looked at Gong Jun with obvious whip marks on his face under the dim light, and asked in a low voice. Subordinate: "How do you say?"

"It should be that I really don't know. People can't bear the punishment anymore. It's just a few words over and over again."

"Where's Mrs. Chen?"

"Not yet arraigned."

"Why?"

Because the mother family of the Chen family is a meritorious official, although Gong Xun ascended the throne and questioned and distributed the Chen family who should be punished, the Chen family still bears the halo of the sons of the hero, and still has the golden decree of the founding monarch to pardon the sins!So when the secret guards went to interrogate, they were returned by Mrs. Chen's words that were louder than each sentence, and Dali Siqing even shook his hands beside him. The gap, after all, compared with Chen Shi, who is full of energy and sharp teeth, Gong Jun is easy to loosen at first glance.

After hearing his subordinate's statement, Yu Zimo nodded.For some unknown reason, he raised his hand to support Gong Jun's thin chin.The flesh on Gong Jun's face was turned upside down, and the wound showed wantonly what kind of torture he had endured. His pale lips had no color, but were covered with dry, chapped dead skin, and the long eyelashes were still wet. I don't know why. The blood and tears during the torture were still the icy cold water just now, dripping silently, but they couldn't stop the blackness on the bags under the eyes.

Yu Zimo withdrew his hand and looked at Gong Jun who had lost his support and was shaking back and forth under the force of gravity.

"Send a doctor here, don't let him die. Come here first today, and I will interrogate myself tomorrow."

The subordinates thought they could finally see Master Yu Zimo's tricks, but they didn't want Master Yu Zimo not to go to the torture room at all, but let Gong Junan lean on the haystack safely and brought him a serving of white fish. Slices of porridge.

The two stood still and looked at each other, but Yu Zimo's face was still cold, while Gong Jun looked like a frightened rabbit, with bloodshot eyes in dark sockets under his tightly locked brows, staring at Yu Zimo in fear.

After a while, Yu Zimo finally spoke.

"Not poisonous."

Gong Jun finally moved, slowly raised his withered hand, and under Yu Zimo's gaze, he picked up the porcelain white spoon and took a sip.After a while of silence, as if to confirm what Yu Zimo said was true, he picked up the porridge bowl and swallowed it whole. He ate it in a panic. When he was a prince and king, he never knew that a bowl of porridge with fish slices was so good. After eating to this extent, it was so delicious that he swallowed it down his throat before he could taste it carefully.

For half a month from breaking the city to today, he was either put on the rack or thrown on the dark and damp cell floor to feel the pain all over his body.Hot porridge?He has never eaten a full meal even with cold rice, this bowl of fish porridge is simply delicious in the world, he drank so much that he choked and coughed.

"Don't eat?"

When Gong Jun's cough subsided, there was still half a bowl of porridge left in the bowl, and the tender white fish fillets were clearly visible.But Gong Jun stopped talking, pushed the bowl forward, his voice was as thin as a mosquito: "Zi, Master Zimo, my mother is very old, and I really can't bear the pain of prison, please..."

After speaking, Gong Jun pushed the bowl again, and Yu Zimo understood what he meant.

"Mr. Chen has their own arrangement. If you don't eat it, you will throw it away."

"Eat, I'll eat!" Gong Junfu picked up the spoon again and took the first bite of the fish fillet. He originally wanted to leave all the fish meat to his mother.

"You know who I am?"

Gong Jun slowly chewed the fish fillet in his mouth, and finally he didn't want to snatch it like a reincarnated evil spirit. Of course he remembered the person in front of him.That year he and Gongxun secretly drove a boat to pick lotus, and when they were about to dock, they had a quarrel, and he accidentally fell into the pond. Gongxun was so anxious that he took the paddle several times, and Gongjun But because of his cramps, he couldn't cover the short distance. Just as Gong Xun was about to jump into the water to catch him, an extra pair of hands appeared behind Gong Jun and lifted him out of the water.

The man was not very old, maybe only a little older than Gong Jun, so he had no strength to push Gong Jun onto the boat. When Gong Xun stretched out his hand to pull him, he accidentally knocked on the boat, and his cheekbones suddenly scratched. There was blood.

It took Gong Xun a lot of effort to drag him onto the boat. Seeing that the two wet children were safe and sound, he immediately collapsed on the board of the boat and let out a long breath.

"Zimo, thanks to you!"

Gong Jun then knew that the person who rescued him was Zimo.After regaining consciousness in his hands and feet, he twisted the wet veil on Yu Zimo's body to cover the wound on his face, and said in a childlike voice, "Thank you, brother Zimo!"

On the next day, Gong Jun specially delivered wound medicine to "Brother Zimo" and told him not to get in the water, but "Brother Zimo" wronged Gong Xun for pushing Gong Jun into the water and giving him cold eyes because of the indiscretion of Chen's queen, Gong Jun's mother.In the end, although the wound medicine was taken, the sentence: "Thank you, master." But the intimacy of "Brother Zimo" was pulled away.

After that, the two brothers Gong Xun and Gong Jun became more and more alienated, and this "Brother Zimo" who had saved his life disappeared into the sea of ​​people. Occasionally, when he glanced at him from a distance, the man stood behind Gong Xun and never left him.

2. Gongjun

◎The body is dead in the heart◎

Gong Jun thought that Yu Zimo got rid of him to reassure Gong Xun, but unexpectedly, this bowl of fish porridge was non-toxic.

Gong Jun didn't know, but Yu Zimo also remembered what happened on the boat when he was young.The wet child wrung out the veil, and carefully wiped the blood on Yu Zimo's face. When Yu Zimo's skin throbbed uncontrollably because of the pain, the little prince, who was trembling with cold, turned towards his face. Blowing on the wound: "The queen mother said, blowing on it won't hurt any more."

Gong Jun didn't even know that the wound medicine he sent the next day, Yu Zimo was really useful, and he obediently didn't let the wound get wet.When Yu Zimo told Gong Xun about delivering the medicine, Gong Xun told him that he already knew.

"When he was punished, Gong Jun came secretly with food, knelt with me for most of the night, and was sad for a while because you said 'thank you, master'. I told him that you have that temper."

Yu Zimo was silent, he was Gong Xun's domestic slave, so he didn't say thank you for what the master said.

Gong Xun raised his hand and patted Yu Zimo's shoulder, "Don't be self-deprecating! Although you want to call yourself like everyone else around me, I never regard you as a slave in my heart! My brother, you can also be close."

"brother……"

"Yes, that kid Gong Jun is a brother!"

Of the heirs of the same age, only Gong Jun was called a brother by Gong Xun, so Yu Zimo kept the wound medicine that Gong Jun sent with peace of mind, even if there was only a medicine bottle left, he never threw it away, until now.

There is too little warmth in his life, so the stars are especially cherished.Especially it is good not to be contaminated with impurities when you are young, he always remembers it.Su Yunxi's unintentional bowl of hot rice, Gong Xun's rescue in times of crisis, Gong Jun's concern... Even in the afternoon of the school field, he followed Gong Xun into the house, Gong Jun poured him a cup of herbal tea and told him with a smile on his face He said, "Brother Zimo, don't stand still, come and have a cup of tea to relieve the heat, and let my brother Wang rest for a while!"

Yu Zimo remembered it all.

It's just that later brother and brother Gong were completely changed by the struggle for royal power. What he was grateful for and what he was grateful for became opposites, and Yu Zimo chose the one who had great gratitude to him.

After years of separation, I didn't expect that when they looked at each other like this again, one was a defeated bandit, and the other was already a confidant of the new lord.

Gong Jun's lips are still blue as he chews the fish fillets
