Chapter 269: Burial of Ji Qian
Chapter 269: Burial of Ji Qian
"I know." In the face of Xiao Qizi's hoarse shout, Chun Ge just lightly spit out these words, this is him, when he is face to face with death, he can always show extraordinary calm, but few people know that indifference is not an expression of grief.
"You know, you know what." Xiao Qizi was excited, and pushed Chun Ge to the ground fiercely, fortunately, Ji Gan's coffin was blocked behind him, otherwise he would have rolled to the side, Chun Ge would definitely be injured, but Xiao Qizi was not Ji Qian, he didn't care at all, he still looked at Chun Ge, who was slightly embarrassed, and then said: "Do you know, if there is no him, can you capture Maocheng so easily, if there is no him, can you easily take the dry city, if there is no him, will there be you, an official and military strategy with great military achievements." ”
"This is biased, could it be that my official Chunge can only succeed by relying on Ji Qian?" Chun Ge knew that on the way to suppress bandits, Ji Qian helped him a lot, but it didn't mean that he could kill Chun Ge in seconds, not to mention that he didn't want his heart to hurt even more.
"Isn't it?" Xiao Qizi pulled out a disdainful face, snorted a few words, and said: "If it weren't for the eldest brother to help you suppress the news, how could you go to the dry city so safely, if you didn't know that the eldest brother had been running around for a few days and nights, you would have been abused by Li Guan's people, if it wasn't for the eldest brother who took Li Guan away strongly, leaving the Fang brothers without backup, how could you capture the dry city so easily." ”
"Really?" Chunge didn't know how much Ji Qian had done behind his back, he had always treated others with himself, and he felt that he would do what he would do. What would Ji Qian do that again, but he never thought that Ji Qian's efforts were much more than he imagined.
"It's not all, do you know how my eldest brother is spending his days these days." Xiao Qizi thought that anyway, it was better to let Chunge know. So he took out the token from his bosom and asked, "Do you know what this piece is?" After saying that, he threw the token in his hand to Chunge.
Chun Ge picked up the token not far away, he was very familiar with this thing, this was the place he left when he was captured by Fang Zongyi's people. It really got into Ji Qian's hands, just as he expected.
"Do you know that the eldest brother got this token and knew that you had been in that kind of place, he didn't say a word, he went directly to the brothers of the Shang family, he was desperate, even if he knew, you were safe and sound, even if it was inconvenient for him to be an enemy of the Fang brothers at that time, even if." Xiao Qizi choked up again and said, "He knows that this is your plan to sow discord. He is also willing to take this head for you, he is so good to you, how can you be willing to lose him. ”
Chunge wiped the token, took it into his arms, and said, "I never asked him to do these things, so let alone fail him." ”
"yes. Oh, yes. Xiao Qizi laughed angrily and said coldly: "He is a fool, the biggest fool in the world, but without this fool, how can you capture Maocheng so quickly." Xiao Qizi simply sat on the ground, looked at Chun Ge, whose mood fluctuations were not too big, and said: "Let's not talk about my eldest brother, let's just say that we are the big boss, that is also a famous figure in his early years, when he was fighting." You haven't been born yet, you have such an army of several routes, you want to capture Maocheng in a month, you are kidding. It was my eldest brother who mediated for you, so he didn't let the big boss have a hard time with you. He can't sleep these days, Maocheng on one side and you on the other, but he chose you, he betrayed Maocheng. ”
"He didn't betray Maocheng." Chunge's tone was very resolute, he couldn't allow Ji Qian's best brother to misunderstand Ji Qian, so he explained.
"I'm not as weak as you think, and Li Mo is not as strong as you think, I just bought Ji Qian's face, so I didn't let the imperial army overwhelm the border, and chose to fight with you fairly." Chun Ge touched the token in his arms, and then said: "If Li Mo chooses to fight hard and there are large-scale casualties on both sides, then the imperial court will kill Maocheng completely, you are isolated, and it is only a matter of time before the city is broken." And Ji Qian knew that I didn't want to slaughter the people of Maocheng, so he made the best choice, I don't deny it, the reason why he did it was me, but Maocheng, you, how could it not be what he thought in his heart, he didn't betray Maocheng, he just obeyed his heart. ”
Xiao Qizi didn't think that Chun Ge would defend his eldest brother, he said so much just because Ji Qian felt worthless, in fact, Ji Qian had already prepared to die when he left, he knew this and he was also prepared, but in the end he learned that it was Chun Ge's hand, which would lead to a big outburst, and some emotions would calm down after they were expressed.
"I didn't expect you to know my eldest brother." Xiao Qi glanced at Chun Ge without a good face.
"I'm a mortal after all, I still can't be truly ruthless and unjust, Ji Qian is kind to me, I remember." Chun Ge stood up with the coffin, patted off the grass clippings on his body, and was about to leave.
"Guan Chunge." Xiao Qizi thought about it, but still stopped Chunge, took out a letter from his cuff, got up and said: "Big brother has long known that there is such a result, he said that it is a kind of happiness to die at your hands, and he has a letter for me to give you." Xiao Qizi paused, and when he handed out the letter in his hand, he said, "I didn't want to give it to you, but you should take a look." ”
Chunge took the letter and didn't open it immediately, but put the letter in the same place as the one brought by Qiuye Lou, his hand trembled slightly, but he still asked casually: "What are your plans in the future?" ”
"When the eldest brother is buried, I will return to the big boss." Xiaoqizi is Ji Gan's right-hand man, and now that Ji Gan is gone, I'm afraid they should disperse here, but he was brought by Ji Gan, and there is really no place in this world where he belongs.
"Little flag, come to me." Chunge didn't want to help Ji Qian take care of Xiao Qizi, but he lacked someone like Xiao Qi around him, he admired Xiao Qi very much, and he believed that people who could stay by Ji Qian's side for so long would not be just general.
"I'm a mountain bandit, I dare to come, you dare to use it." Xiao Qizi didn't expect Chunge to want to keep himself.
"You can come, you don't have to worry about other things." Ji Qian led people to surrender, even if others knew that he had taken in Xiaoqi, at most he would be said a few words by those officials. He thought that his official Chunge could still stand up.
"You're doing things the same way as your big brother." Xiao Qizi looked at Chun Ge, just like Ji Qian, he only told others after thinking about it himself, everything was thought out for others, it was really a virtue.
"So you're coming." Chun Ge suddenly felt that the little flag in front of him had grown a lot compared to the little flag in Maocheng at the beginning. Presumably Ji Gan's death hit this kid too hard.
"Can I still refuse?" Xiao Qizi pouted, maybe he could still see Ji Qian's shadow when he stayed by Chunge's side, so he agreed.
"I don't know your real name yet?" Chun Ge thought about it and introduced it at the beginning, Ji Qian only said that this person was Xiao Qizi, and did not say anything else, now Xiao Qi wants to follow him. You have to know the name.
"I have the surname of my eldest brother, and my name is Ji Ziqi." Xiaoqizi was taken care of by Ji Qian, because his parents were unknown, so everything he did was given by Ji Qian, including his name.
"Okay, I see." Chunge nodded and returned to the tent with the little flag, and after introducing Anu Thirteen and the others, he left the little flag.
The next day was not a time when the wind was beautiful, but this day was an auspicious day for funeral and burial, and Chunge chose to cremate Ji Qian's body on this day. Xiao Qizi once asked. Why didn't he leave a whole corpse for Ji Qian, because in his opinion, cremation was a kind of disrespect to the dead. But Chunge replied that he wanted the fire to dry up the sorrows of Ji Qian's life, and he could find a good home in the next life. So Xiaoqi also agreed to the cremation.
At this time, Ji Qian had already been lifted out of the coffin and placed on the white fire rack in front of him. Just waiting for Chun Ge to have a little fire. Chun Ge didn't light the fire immediately, he looked at Ji Qian on the shelf who hadn't changed at all, this was the first time he had seen this man so closely after Ji Gan's death.
Ji Gan's body did not decompose in this summer, he was like a man who had fallen asleep peacefully, and it was Chun Ge who used special means to ensure that Ji Qian's body was clean. Maybe it's just to see this last side.
"Childe, it's time to light the fire." Seeing that Chunge was slow to move, Anu had no choice but to remind him.
Chun Ge was shocked at first, and deeply forgot Ji Qian's glance, so he threw the torch in his hand, and the person also turned to the opposite side. The fire burned very fast. In the blink of an eye, Ji Qian's body was covered, and Chun Ge listened to the crackling sound behind him, and his heart was a little sour. He slowly took out the two letters hidden deep in his arms, and finally he opened the one from the Autumn Leaves Building after staring at it for a long time.
With Chunge's ability to look at ten lines, everything will be in his mind in a moment. It wasn't too far from what he thought. Ji Qian's father's name is Ji Ziqiang, and this person is also a soldier, but he is the number one general under Guan Peng, and he is also Guan Peng's cronies. Guan Peng dismissed the official and left, but he didn't have that kind of good luck, Yousu just didn't kill the civil official, this person was just a military general, so Lin Xiang's anger was sprinkled on him. In the blink of an eye, his family was ruined, and his son, who was only seven or eight years old, was also left behind......
Chun Ge closed the letter and thought with a wry smile, no wonder Ji Qianhui was so resentful, his father was completely his father's substitute for the dead. Chun Ge's afterglow swept the raging fire, and said silently: "You're not wrong, I'm not wrong, it's just too late to understand." ”
Then Chun Ge opened the letter that Ji Qian gave him, and the envelope was written in Chun Ge's familiar font, and the content of the letter was very simple, only three words, forget me. It was these three words that made Chun Ge's mood collapse to the extreme, he seemed to remember that sentence, and when he looked back, the person was in the dim light. He also looked back, and the man was indeed in the lamplight, but he was about to turn to dust.
Chun Ge approached the fire frame, kept watching, watching, until finally Ji Qian was sent to the dug tomb, Anu asked Chun Ge what to write on the tombstone, Chun Ge just said with tears in his eyes, and burned the two letters on his body to Ji Qian with paper money.
Looking at the slightly lonely figure, Anu will never forget the poem that Chun Ge subconsciously chanted, how much he wanted to tell Chun Ge that the poem was about more than just a Ji Qian.
Straight lovesickness is useless, and it is madness to be melancholy......
