After Zhu Zhanji finished speaking, he threw the door and left, and immediately ordered someone to prepare a big bronze slurt. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

There was no such a large copper cylinder in the palace, so Zhu Zhanji had to order the Internal Affairs Office to work overtime to build it within three days.

And the king of Han therefore had three more days to say goodbye to his nine sons and the crown princess.

King Han had already decided to die, but when he saw the nine kneeling sons in front of him, as well as his wife who had followed him for decades, he was still a little moved.

A tear slowly condensed from the eye socket, then grew larger, and then poured out again.

He wanted to beg Zhu Zhanji immediately and let him let go of his sons and Wei Rujin.

He even wanted to beg his little nephew to take back his life, let him live well, and accompany his youngest son for another birthday, the youngest son is not yet twelve years old!

Or let him take the time to seriously teach his sons some mastery of fighting with soldiers......

"Hey, what's the use? Soon they will be executed with him, and what is the use of them learning this? ”

Thinking of this, King Han smiled annoyedly.

"Father!"

The nine sons lined up and knelt in front of Zhu Gaoxu.

"Husband!"

Wei Rujin also knelt behind his sons.

Everyone has a thousand words in their hearts, but they are speechless, only a thousand tears.

The king of Han thought that his nine children and his wife would angrily accuse him of being selfish and arrogant, or that they would kneel in front of him with tears in their eyes and beg him to beg the emperor to let them go.

But they didn't.

Even the youngest son, who was less than twelve years old, did not cry, nor did he ask his father to do anything.

Originally, King Han thought that at this moment he would hear their voices, "Father, my son doesn't want to die." ”

However, now he did not hear.

They lined up and knelt in front of him, with a reserved nobility on their faces.

This scene reminded Zhu Gaoxu of when Emperor Yongle came to Shandong Han Wangfu to pay his relatives, and his nine sons knelt in front of him and were knighted.

At that time, he once asked Emperor Yongle not to crown the children kings so early, but Emperor Yongle said something at the time:

"I will crown them kings early in my lifetime."

At that time, he thought that his father wanted to give his grandchildren grace as soon as possible, but now he understands that his father's current meaning at that time was that I would make them kings as soon as possible, so that even if they had any accidents in the future, at least they would be promoted to the emperor's family and have enjoyed the rewards of the king.

"Sons! Father, I'm sorry for you. ”

Zhu Gaoxu knelt heavily in front of his sons, looked at the cramped sky of Xi'an Gate with empty eyes, and sighed deeply.

"Don't say that, Father. In fact, we have long had enough of this kind of 'man is a sword, I am a fish and meat'. Instead of being frightened all day long, not knowing which of their meals had poison from the emperor, as soon as they heard the slightest disturbance outside the prison, they suspected that the assassin had come in. We are tired of this kind of life with our heads in our hands. ”

The youngest son spoke first.

"Yes, people will eventually die, rather than living without tomorrow and being confused, it is better to set a date of death early and say goodbye happily! As the saying goes, 'What is the joy of life, and what is the fear of death'? ”

The eldest son took the words of the younger brother and said:

"Big man, smile at the sky! We should be thankful that this day has finally come, and we will finally not have to suffer anymore. We are dying at the same time, we are a family, we meet in the underworld, I believe we can find each other soon, get together again, if there is an afterlife, we will still be a family! ”

"Sons, in the next life, the father does not want to be your father anymore, and in the next life, you will all be born in an ordinary family. It was my father who harmed you, and at this moment my father would like to pray with all my luck in the next life, that you will be happy, safe, and happy forever in the next life. ”

After speaking, Zhu Gaochu kowtowed deeply to his sons, and the sons also kowtowed to Zhu Gaochu one by one at the same time.

This is the final farewell.

After kowtowing, the sons consciously walked up to the jailer and put on the shackles and shackles of the death row prisoners.

Zhu Gaoxu finally walked in front of Wei Rujin, who had been kneeling, and was about to kowtow deeply, but Wei Rujin immediately quickly supported him.

"Don't, Lord Wang. You don't owe me! Jin'er has had children with you for more than 20 years, even if you empathize with you now and fall in love with the Wu Wu who destroyed you, Jin'er will not hate you. Because you're worth it. ”

Wei Rujin also knew that this moment was the last time she and Zhu Gaoxu met, her face was calm, and her heart seemed to be occupied by a divine power. That strength is unconditional love and support for one's husband.

It was this unconditional love and support that made her face the sad news of the imminent loss of her husband and son, and she did not seem at all afraid or sad.

"Jin'er. I remember what a beautiful and willful girl you were when you married into the palace that year, and the king liked your willfulness and brutality, and always spoiled you. But since Wu Wu came to the palace, this king gradually forgot to spoil you and love you, and finally because of my empathy, I turned you into a little woman with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes. This king is sorry for you. ”

King Han's heart, like a mirror, choked up and said: "I'm sorry, the only person I'm sorry for in this king's life is you." Jin'er. ”

"No, husband. It is precisely because I have loved you deeply that I understand the distress of not being able to love. The most sorry thing in your life is not me, but yourself. Because from beginning to end, she never loved you. It is precisely because of this that I want to cherish you and compensate you more, but unfortunately, my love and compensation may be too unimportant to you. ”

Wei Rujin straightened up, looked at Zhu Gaoxu's eyes and said:

"If love is going to get old, then I will remember what our love was like when it was young, and those memories are enough to support me for the rest of my years."

Wei Rujin's face was calm, she suddenly looked at Zhu Gaoxu with some pity and said:

"It's just that today, you obviously can't support it anymore, husband, you've waited for her for so long, I know, you really can't stand the news that Wu Wu has had children with the emperor, you have carried so many difficult years, but now you have chosen to give up on yourself, you have made up your mind, 'Rather than broken jade', right?"

"Jin'er, you are really the only person in this world who understands me. How I wish the person who understood me could be her! But, now, I'm not expecting extravagantly. If I can't stop my love for her by all means, then death is the only way to stop love. Thank you for your understanding and tolerance. ”
