Chapter 14: Congratulations
Jiang Xu regretted his momentary hesitation that day, because it wasn't for that hesitation, not for that little bit of unbearability, he would definitely be able to kill Jiang Ming on the spot with that knife.
Fortunately, he was afraid that he would lose to Jiang Ming and smeared a huge poison on his knife, and in order to protect the huge poison, he was even willing to be injured by the enemy's knife, and he didn't pull out the knife on his waist.
Jiang Ming rescued him, and at the same time reminded him that the gun in his hand was lost and the knife on his waist; And he took advantage of Jiang Ming to kill another enemy soldier next to him: the enemy was stabbing at him with a gun, Jiang Ming blocked the enemy army for him and killed the enemy army, and he also got the opportunity to slash Jiang Ming in the back.
He still softened his heart and hesitated, so Jiang Ming returned to the capital, stood in the Jiang Mansion again, and sat in front of him Jiang Xu, but he still had to kneel at his feet!
At this moment, he regretted incomparably why, why didn't he cut off Jiang Ming's head with a knife in the first place! If he hadn't been soft-hearted that day, then he, his mother, and everyone in the family wouldn't have to be insulted by Jiang Xu today.
Remorse gnawed at him like a poisonous snake, making his body tremble. However, no matter how much he regrets, he can't change anything, he is destined to kneel at Jiang Ming's feet today.
Even if it wasn't for the guilt, even if it wasn't for the knife that day, he still had to kneel - the reason why he wanted to cut that knife, the reason why he wanted to coat the knife with huge poison, was to get the Jiang family, get the title, be the master of the Jiang family, and no longer have to bend down and bow his head in front of Jiang Ming.
He got the Jiang family and the title, and he also became the master of the Jiang family, but after Jiang Ming came back, he had to kneel at Jiang Ming's feet! He really can't stand it.
"Xu'er, give a salute to His Highness." Old Madam Jiang's voice sounded in Jiang Xu's ears, making him wake up suddenly-he had been dormant for many years before he had the knife that day, even if he was embarrassed today, how could he give up?
Let's talk about it later, Jiang Ming has no evidence anyway, otherwise how could the person who came be His Royal Highness A Feng? The people who come will be from the military department.
Jiang Xu suppressed the evil fire in his heart, stepped forward and knelt down: "Please say hello to Your Highness." ”
Ah Feng looked at him: "Just give me a greeting?" Your eldest brother has just come back, and your brothers have always been close, although because of my arrival, your brothers can't talk to each other, but you don't say hello to your eldest brother? He can only come back after nine deaths, and it is really gratifying to congratulate him for making great contributions to the country. ”
"You, aren't you happy for your eldest brother, don't you congratulate him?"
She looked at Jiang Xu with a smile on her face: "I won't be surprised, if you congratulate your eldest brother, I will only be happy." ”
She said here and looked at the other Jiang family members in the hall: "My favorite thing is to go on a blind date, and I am most happy to see the family reunited with a harmonious family." Old Madam Jiang, you really have to be a blessed person, do you feel that you are one of the most blessed women in the world? ”
Her words were tantamount to a whip falling on the faces and hearts of Old Madam Jiang and Jiang Xu, and they were embarrassed by the pain, but they had to make a smile to respond.
"What His Royal Highness said is very true, it is so," Old Madam Jiang looked at Jiang Ming, and every word below was something she could say with all her might: "The concubine really has nothing else to ask for." ”
She thinks that her whole life has been ruined by Jiang Ming. If it weren't for Jiang Ming, how could she be a stepmother, she was also a concubine of the dignified Lang family.
Jiang Xu tried his best to keep his face from changing, and after getting up, he saluted Jiang Ming again: "Congratulations, big brother." He was so eloquent that he couldn't say more than these four words at this time.
Because every word turned into a sharp arrow and hit his heart fiercely, the pain was even heavier than Jiang Ming hurting him, so he really couldn't bear even a little more.
This time, he really saluted Jiang Ming, and really bowed his head to Jiang Ming and bent down, not because Ah Feng let Jiang Ming take a profit.
Ah Feng didn't say anything, but used facts to make Jiang Xu understand that even if he took the title, it would be useless, and he still couldn't be the master of the Jiang family.
As long as she and Jiang Ming are there, Jiang Xu doesn't have to think about it in his life. He got that title for nothing, and it was useless; Moreover, he still has to be the same as before in his life, and he has to be polite when he sees Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming looked at Jiang Xu and showed his first smile to the Jiang family after entering the Jiang Mansion: "Brother Xu is too polite. For my brother to make contributions, it can be said that it is all thanks to Brother Xu and his mother, speaking of which Brother Xu really wants to congratulate, it is better to treat himself, and thank my mother on my behalf. ”
He can really have today because of Jiang Xu and his mother's plan.
God is really fair, but sometimes his fairness is a little unbearable: Jiang Ming was slashed by Jiang Xu and thrown down, he killed the enemy until he fainted, thinking that he was no longer lucky, and was actually rescued by the veteran Dahu.
Da Hu's family is a medicine shop, and he actually has a few medical skills, which not only healed his injuries but also cleared his poison: in those days of hiding in Tibet, it is by no means a few words that people can understand that Da Hu and he are hovering on the edge of life and death every day in those days.
After that, they rescued many soldiers who escaped, and then they began to consciously go to find those lost soldiers, and finally gathered thousands of people.
When they had no food, no clothing, no water and no help, how they struggled to get through, and how they fought for their lives to get to where they are today -- there is no need to tell anyone.
It's not because it's in the past, it's just because it's the memories of Jiang Ming and the soldiers, and it's their own blood and sweat that they exchanged for the lives of their brothers today!
Those bloody days don't need to be talked about to irrelevant people, and they don't need to be respected or touched, and even the so-called justice is not important at this time, the important thing is that he and his brothers came back alive.
Those who are alive must live not only for themselves, but also for their brothers who died on the way back.
Therefore, Jiang Ming said that he was able to make contributions because of Jiang Xu's gifts, with God's blessing, as well as the efforts of him and his soldiers, but it was all due to that betrayed ambush.
Jiang Ming's words once again cut Jiang Xu's heart like a knife, making the muscles on Jiang Xu's face move, and finally Jiang Xu pressed the regret and hatred in his heart and replied: "Big brother is really too polite." ”
After saying that, he saluted Ah Feng again, and then took a few steps back to the side. Because he really couldn't say another word to Jiang Ming - if he listened to Jiang Ming any longer, he might not be able to express his indifference anymore.
No one can be slapped in the face, and they can be beaten until they vomit blood. He Jiang Xu can't either, especially when he is high-spirited and proud, he can't really stay calm when he is beaten into a pig's head.
Then Jiang Xu's brothers stepped forward one by one and knelt on the ground to greet Ah Feng: Jiang Xu knelt down, Jiang Jun knelt down, and Jiang Jing also knelt down.
The Jiang family all knelt at the feet of Ah Feng and Jiang Ming, and they had to kowtow to get Ah Feng's permission before they could get up, and they had to thank them in their mouths.
Thank you Ah Feng and Jiang Ming for letting them kneel and worship, thank you Ah Feng and Jiang Ming for letting them get up after kowtowing.
