Yuanxin was resting on the chair with his eyes closed, looking tired, Cheng Zheng's action of kicking the door did not shock him, he opened his eyes unhurriedly and lazily, and instructed the outside, "Come on, inform Wei Hai that you are not allowed to send any food to Wuyue Platform within three days." ”

"Yuanxin ......"

As soon as Cheng Zheng spoke, Yuanxin interrupted, "This is the price you paid for trespassing into my study." If you dare to say one more word, I'll add one more day, and if you dare to, try it. ”

Yuanxin's expression was very serious, Cheng Zheng was stunned straight, he wanted to speak, but he didn't have the courage to say it, he wasn't sure if Yuanxin knew that there was a child on the platform, he wasn't sure if Yuanxin really wanted to take revenge on him, he didn't dare to gamble with Yishan and the child's life.

Seeing that he wanted to speak but didn't dare, Yuanxin couldn't help but smile, "You keep saying that I'm impulsive and reckless, look at what you look like now, isn't it also for a woman?" What qualifications do you have to teach me like this? Today, I also want you to know what it's like to have a loved one in someone's hand. ”

Cheng Zheng didn't dare to say a word, then action was the best rhetoric, he knelt down and knelt in front of Yuanxin.

Yuanxin was taken aback by his actions, and then he was even more proud, "This world is really wonderful, you have always been high, and there is a day when you kneel down and beg me, you have always held the power of life and death, and there are times when you are helpless." You have always played with other people's life and death in applause, and there are times when my palms can't move, Cheng Zheng, I didn't expect you to have today. ”

Cheng Zheng didn't say a word, let him be humiliated, Yuanxin snorted coldly, "Experience the feeling when I begged you to let go of Menghan and Ah Yin two years ago, and how helpless I was at that time, and how much I hope you can be merciful." Experience the despair of a beloved woman who is controlled by others and is powerless. Experience the frustration of who you want to protect, but can't. ”

Yuanxin was already very tired, and he didn't bother to say more to him after humiliating a few words, so he said coldly, "Get out!" ”

Cheng Zheng didn't dare to speak out even though he had a thousand kinds of suffering, Yuanxin was now covering the sky with one hand, and he was helpless, so he could only secretly pray for Yishan to persevere.

He walked out of the study and knelt outside, Yuanxin just wanted to take revenge on himself and vent the resentment in his heart, so he only wanted Yuanxin to remember brotherhood after humiliating himself. He can't justify anything, the only thing that can save Yishan is time, but time is also Yishan's talisman, he doesn't dare to guarantee whether Yishan waits for him to save her in the worst way.

My journey has always been invincible, but I can't even protect my own woman. If Yuanxin's resentment is compared to a mountain, then all I can do is wait for time to break the stone little by little like flowing water, and then wash it away. This kind of helplessness, I understand, Yuanxin, what you want me to experience, I have experienced it, and I only know today how failed I am. Yuanxin, how much do you hate me, how long will I kneel here to impress you?

Yuanxin fell asleep exhaustively on the table, and when he was woken up, it was already dark, and Guo'er knocked on the door and brought tea and snacks.

Yuanxin rubbed his eyes, picked up the teacup without energy, he was troubled by military affairs for several days, he had trouble sleeping and eating, he had to learn everything, and he had to do everything himself, Yuanxin sighed that King Xiang was so good.

Guo'er said cautiously, "Second master." ”

Seeing that she was about to speak, Yuanxin asked, "Well, what's wrong?" ”

Guo'er looked at Yuanxin's face and cautiously replied, "Master Hou is kneeling outside, and he has been kneeling all afternoon." ”

Yuanxin sighed, remembering the events of the afternoon, he forgot about it as soon as he slept, and then said very casually, "Let him go." ”

"But Second Master, Master Hou, he is your brother after all......" Guo'er tried to persuade.

After drinking the tea, Yuanxin felt his heart beat faster and his blood swelled, and he pulled Guo'er closer to his side, "Don't talk about him anymore, okay?" ”

Guo'er nodded shyly and fearfully.

Yuanxin's consciousness gradually blurred, and he involuntarily reached out to Guo'er's waist, untied her belt, and stroked her body......

At dawn the next day, Yuanxin opened his eyes and found that Heguo'er, who was in disheveled clothes, was lying on the ground, and suddenly woke up. He pushed Guo'er, and when Guo'er woke up, he found himself naked, sobbing incessantly, Yuanxin knocked his head and sighed, got dressed and went out.

Seeing that Cheng Zheng was still kneeling outside, he quickened his steps and left quickly.

It wasn't until two days later that Yuanxin came and went to see Cheng Zheng kneeling there, and finally couldn't bear it.

No matter how well I disguise myself, I am still not as good as you after all, you can kill Menghan decisively and simply, but I even torture you with self-blame. Yuanxin walked over to Cheng Zheng and said, "You won." ”

Cheng Zheng has been here without a drop of water, his already haggard face is bloodless, his eyes are scattered, and when he hears Yuanxin's words, he is infinitely ridiculed in his heart, I won? Where did I win? I won as one of the most humble losers?

Ennobu sighed, "You can speak." ”

Cheng Zheng said weakly, "I ask myself to get rid of my clan and go to the cold night camp as a **** to do hard labor, and taste all the hardships to eliminate the hatred in your heart." The child is innocent, I beg you to read that he is your own nephew, raise your noble hand, and spare Yishan and the child. After Cheng Zheng finished speaking, he bowed to the ground and bowed deeply, full of grief, just hoping to impress Yuanxin. I don't care anyway, Yishan, I just want to protect you.

"My nephew? What are you talking about? Yuanxin obviously couldn't accept too much information in Cheng Zheng's words, ignoring what to get rid of the clan and invite himself to be a slave, or grasped the point, Yuanxin pulled Cheng Zheng up, "She has a child?" ”

Cheng Zheng frowned, "Wutai has been personally supervised by you, don't you know?" ”

Yes, since I became King Xiang, in order to take revenge on you, Wutai has been personally interrogated by me, without pretending to be someone else's hand. I said I don't know, will you believe it, will anyone believe it?

He suddenly remembered that a few days ago, Wei Hai wanted to report on the situation on the Wuyue platform, and as soon as he heard the word Wuyuetai, he immediately stopped, saying that unless she died, there was no need to come to Wuyuetai for any news. Because he was afraid that Wei Hai would accept the benefits of Cheng Zheng, talk about how to clear the hardships of Wuyuetai, and intercede for Yishan. As long as people don't die, I don't want to hear anything else.

Yuanxin suddenly realized what a big problem he had overlooked, "I said I don't know, would you believe it?" ”

Cheng Zheng asked bitterly, "So now that you know, can you let them go?" ”

"Someone! Inform Wei Hai to pick up the people in the platform and ask the doctor to come over! Yuanxin commanded loudly, and helped Cheng Zheng up guiltily, panicking, "Brother, I really don't know, I don't know that there are children inside, brother, do you believe me......"

Cheng Zheng knelt for two days, and after barely standing up with the support of Yuanxin, he was so dizzy that he almost collapsed.

No matter how his subordinates persuaded him, Cheng Zheng closed his eyes and didn't take a drop of water, insisting on waiting for a while.

Yuanxin sat still, anxiously waiting for news in circles. The previous platform only delivered one meal a day, and in the past two days, there has been no grain of rice, so I beg them not to do anything, otherwise I will be really guilty.

After an hour, Wei Hai came and said, "Lord, it's not good......

Cheng Zheng opened his eyes and looked at Wei Hai eagerly, Yuanxin was surprised, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong?" Say it! ”

"Inside the platform, the people inside, ...... dead"

Cheng Zheng stood up and wanted to step forward, but his legs had no strength at all, and he fell heavily to the ground, and Yuanxin panicked to help him.

Cheng Zheng insisted on going to the platform, and Yuanxin drove a carriage with him.

Entering the platform, everyone was shocked. It's as ruins as ruins, overgrown with weeds. In the corner of the room, there are Yishan and the child, Yishan has several wounds of different depths on his wrist, it seems that he should not have enough milk, cut his wrist to feed the child to drink blood. It's just that the last newer wound was fatal, cut an artery, and bled to death.

And the child's mouth was full of blood, thin as firewood, skin and bones, and his head was very big. The child's clothes are even more shabby, there are no baby clothes, a shan tore his own clothes, no needle and thread, he drilled a relatively large hole and wore it with a strip of cloth at will, which made people feel sad for a while, even if it is a beggar's child, you can still get some alms, what kind of life do you live.

Cheng Zheng stepped forward tremblingly and found that there was a bloodstained cloth strip under the child, on which the child's birth date was written.

Cheng Zheng couldn't hide his grief, buried his head and cried, and Yuanxin watched from a distance outside the house, completely unwilling to accept that the miserable appearance in front of him was made by himself, only felt that his feet were rooted, and he couldn't take a step at all, until Cheng Zheng fainted in grief.

When Cheng Zheng woke up, it had been a day and a night, Yuanxin was guarding in front of his bed, seeing Cheng Zheng open his eyes, Yuanxin hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Brother, I really didn't know that there was a child, I was wrong, I didn't know it would be like this, brother, you believe me......"

Cheng Zheng nodded lightly and didn't say anything.

Seeing that Cheng Zheng was about to get up, Yuanxin got up and stepped forward to help him, and then fed him some porridge, Cheng Zheng silently accepted Yuanxin's care and did not shirk.

Yuanxin knelt down again to confess to Cheng Zheng, Cheng Zheng didn't mean to blame him, "You get up." ”

"Brother......" Yuanxin stood up at a loss.

Cheng Zheng said to him earnestly, "You remember, you are the king of Xiang, not a child, don't kneel in front of me and admit your mistakes if you do anything wrong, I taught you to be responsible for what you do." ”

Yuanxin lowered his head, "I, I...... It's my fault, and I'll accept whatever you want to do to me. ”

Cheng Zheng said calmly, "Two lives for two lives, Yishan and the child for Menghan and your child, we are even, and we don't owe each other." ”

"Don't owe each other?" Yuanxin was stunned, "Can you really put it down lightly?" ”

Cheng Zheng asked rhetorically, "Otherwise?" Revenge on you again? Design frames you? Compete with you for the throne of Xiangwang? Do you want that? ”

"I was wrong, I have no heart, I am selfish and narrow-minded, and I am not worthy of being the king of Xiang." Yuanxin blamed himself.

Cheng Zheng said solemnly, "Today's matter, if you really have remorse, promise me one thing, okay?" ”

Yuanxin nodded again and again, "Brother, you say, I agree." ”

Cheng Zheng got up, got dressed and took Yuanxin to the ancestral hall, which is a place to worship the ancestral spiritual seat, and Yuanxin followed in confusion.

Cheng Zheng took him to offer incense to the ancestors, and then asked Yuanxin to kneel in front of the spiritual seat.

Cheng Zheng's face was stern and cold, and Yan said, "Yuanxin, I want you to swear in front of the ancestors of the Cheng family, in the future, no matter what happens, you will put the Yun clan first, maintain the merits and prestige of the Yun clan, and live up to the responsibility of the patriarch. ”

Yuanxin was frightened by Cheng Zheng's words, and shrank back in horror, in fact, a similar oath had been promised in front of the elders of the Council Pavilion when he took office, and he had also sworn to the clan relatives at the clan celebration, but Cheng Zheng actually added such a heavy gambling curse at the end, which was really unbearable for him.

And Cheng Zheng wants a guarantee, because Yuanxin really cares about Menghan too much, and he can let go of Yilin and Yishan for the overall situation, but Yuanxin has never let go of Menghan, and he can even be ruthless to his brother regardless of his brotherhood.

Min Xuan had already used Menghan's death to sow discord between their brothers, and it was hard to guarantee that one day in the future, he would tell the truth and instigate Yuanxin to become enemies of Yilin, and if Yuanxin still acted impulsively at that time, the consequences would be unimaginable. Cheng Zheng's heart jumps every time he thinks of this, this risk is really too great, and if he doesn't make a painful oath to warn Yuanxin, he is afraid that the Yun Clan will really be destroyed.

Cheng Zheng saw Yuanxin hesitate and asked sternly, "What?" Don't you dare? Is the will of the Yun Clan so unfirm? ”

"No...... It's not ......," Yuanxin shook his head and stammered in denial.

"Then what are you hesitating about!" Cheng Zheng drank sharply.

Seeing his resolute gaze, Yuanxin made up his mind and said solemnly, "The ancestors of the Cheng family are above, and the descendants of Cheng Yuanxin hereby swear, from now on, no matter under any circumstances, I will take the Yun clan as the priority, make every effort, and work hard to prevent the Yun clan's merits from being damaged, not disgrace the prestige of the Yun clan, and live up to the heavy responsibility of the patriarch. ”

"Okay," Cheng Zheng nodded with satisfaction, "Remember your oath today." ”

Like a child who has made a mistake, Yuanxin lowered his head and replied, "I will remember." ”

"You can get up."

Yuanxin stood up, still palpitating, as if he had done something ashamed of his ancestors, and did not dare to raise his head.

Cheng Zheng comforted, "Yuanxin, in fact, you are already very good. Since you have been the king of Xiang, you have been diligent day and night, you are well aware of your own shortcomings, humble and motivated, and study hard. You have the responsibility to not form a party for personal gain, and I believe that you and the elders did not choose the wrong person. ”

Yuanxin was a little uncomfortable with Cheng Zheng's praise, Cheng Zheng changed his words and continued, "Your only hard flaw is that you care too much about Yao Menghan, if she is still alive, it must be your weakness." You are in the position of King Xiang, I don't want you to have any weaknesses in your life in the future, can you understand my mind? ”

Yuanxin nodded, "I understand, Menghan is no longer here, I will put the Yun Clan first." ”

Cheng Zheng patted him on the shoulder and smiled with relief, "Menghan's death was done by me alone, it has nothing to do with Jinfeng, now that your hatred has disappeared, I hope you don't get angry with him anymore." ”

Yuanxin obediently agreed, "I'll personally go and pick him up." (To be continued.) )
