The King of Ji'an had just escaped from the hands of the Assassins, and for some reason he vomited blood and collapsed.

The guards found the body of the housekeeper Yan Cheng from the study, and then found the bodies of a guard and two handymen in the bushes near the study. Qiu Chengming counted it and found that there were more than a dozen people missing from the house, including Zhou Han's personal servant Ebony, no one knew their whereabouts and whereabouts, so he could only conclude that they were all dead.

Of course, these accounts are all counted on the heads of Jing Zhi and Wen Liang.

Zhao Xiang led a team of men out of the house to chase after him, but he didn't even catch their shadows.

King Ji'an was woken up by Imperial Physician Gao's needles, and asked Zhou Shu with a pair of red eyes, "What about the things?" Where's the thing? ”

"What should be burned has turned to ashes, and what should be smashed has turned to powder." Zhou Shu replied quietly.

King Ji'an screamed in despair, then rushed over like madness and choked Zhou Shu's neck. After being pulled away, he vomited blood and fainted.

When he woke up again, the whole person seemed to be ten years old, his face was gray, his eyes were dull, he was lying there looking at Zhou Shu with a sad expression, and his mouth was repeated, "Why? Why?

I have been working hard for nearly 20 years, more than ten years of hard work, more than ten years of hard work, just like this, ruined by your hands......

Why the hell are you doing this? I recognize my ancestors and return to my ancestors, and you have great benefits to all of us in the Ji'an Palace, the dignity of the people's attention, and the inexhaustible glory, why do you want to harm me? ”

Zhou Shu scoffed at his words, "Father only thought of the honor and glory after success, and did not think of the disaster and destruction when he failed, right?" ”

"If it weren't for you...... If you hadn't broken it from it. I will succeed, I will succeed. King Ji'an's blood was shaken, and he coughed violently, and when the cough subsided, he became angry again, "You are taking revenge on me, you hate me for killing your mother, so you will retaliate against me in this way, right?" ”

"So, why did you kill my mother?" Zhou Shu looked at him without waves. "Take your head. With your understanding of the concubine, you won't know that it was a trap set by the old concubine.

You know that your mother was wronged, why did you kill her? ”

Probably because he felt that there was nothing to lose anymore, in the face of this son. King Ji'an rarely became honest. "Yes. Your mother didn't do it herself, but she wasn't wronged, your grandmother died because of her.

If I hadn't married her. I didn't bring her into this house, so how could your grandmother take her own life to get rid of her? When I see your mother, I think of ...... Remembering how your grandmother died a tragic death......"

Zhou Shu's eyes turned cold for a minute, "So, in order to be out of sight and out of mind, you killed her?" ”

"I don't have a choice." King Ji'an raised his voice, "If it were you, would you be able to be a husband and wife for the rest of your life with a woman who killed your mother?" ”

Zhou Shu was silent for a moment, and then smiled, "No, according to my father's idea, I can't be a father, son and grandson for the rest of my life with the person who killed my mother."

Therefore, my father can't recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, and he can't fulfill his grandmother's last wish, and given the rehabilitation of the country's government, it's really no wonder to me, because I don't have a choice. ”

King Ji'an choked angrily, and only after a while did he grit his teeth and say, "Why don't you just kill me?" ”

Zhou Shu smiled, looked down at his palm, "No matter how bad you are, you are also my father." I'll feel uncomfortable killing you, and that's punishing me. Moreover, the mother concubine has a saying that is very right, death is too cheap for you.

The dead soldiers you have painstakingly cultivated are gone, the 10,000 elite soldiers you raised are gone, and the secret decree that can prove that you are the bloodline of the first emperor is gone, so you can live in pain and remorse, and use the rest of your life to enjoy the retribution of killing your wife and son. ”

"You ......"

"Shhhhhh Doctor Gao said, from last night to now, you have vomited blood enough times, and if you vomit again, it should damage your heart and veins, and it will be a disaster.

Everything must be thought of as good, at least you can still be your king of Ji'an in peace now, instead of being regarded as a traitor because of failure, and even the family will be imprisoned and killed, and when you get to Jiuquan, you will also rebel and leave.

What's so bad about the surname Zhou? If it weren't for my grandfather who risked killing his head to save the old concubine, and was willing to cut off his children and grandchildren to protect your mother and son, would you be where you are today?

Father, you can't forget your roots, you must be grateful, and you must know how to be content. ”

Saying that, he stood up, "Father, don't think about it so much, let's rest, and my son will go back to sleep." ”

Fang had been guarding outside the study, and when he saw Zhou Shu coming out, he hurriedly greeted him, "How is the prince?" Can you still go to Mount Tai to meet the holy car? ”

"I'm afraid I can't." Zhou Shu shook his head, "I don't think the concubine will go, just ask someone to go to Mount Tai to take leave." There are assassins in the house, my father is frightened and sick, you and your eldest brother have to serve the sick, I believe the saint will understand. ”

The sacrificial hall and several major temples were on fire, and the soldiers and horses lurking in the nearby valley were found. I will definitely find a post house nearby to live, and when the matter is clear, I will set off to Mount Tai, and it will be a trip in vain.

Fang Clan hesitated a little, "I'm afraid it's hard to talk about the assassins, right?" ”

Zhou Shu smiled slightly, "Why can't you say it?" My father was targeted by the Assassins for his escort, and the more people who knew about it, the better. ”

"Escort?" Fang Clan was surprised and confused, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Zhou Shu was too lazy to explain~, "It won't be long before there will be news from Mount Tai, and the mother will know when she hears it."

I ran around all night, and I was so sleepy that I couldn't open my eyes, so I can't accompany me more, and I ask my mother to forgive me. ”

"Okay, then you can go back and rest." Fang waved his hand and told him to leave, called Zhang's mother, and told her not to be busy preparing to go to Mount Tai, and first send a clever person to Mount Tai to find out what was going on.

When Zhou Shu returned to the tea garden, he saw that the kang table was full of white rice porridge, meat buns, a few light side dishes, and various small pickles to accompany the meal. Jian Ying sat next to her, supporting her head with one hand, and dozing her head little by little.

In this situation, there was an indescribable warmth and quietness, which immediately wiped away half of his exhaustion.

Jian Ying opened her eyes when she heard the movement, and saw him standing in front of her looking at herself, and smiled at him, "What's the matter, it's like three autumns after a night?" ”

"Yes, it's only been one night, and it's like three autumns now." Zhou Shu said with some emotion, walked over and hugged her hard, "I almost thought I wouldn't be able to see you and my sons, thanks to the people you sent." ”

"You said Lianxi, right?" Jian Ying smiled in his arms, "That kid is quite clever. ”

Zhou Shu let go of her, "What, you already know?" ”

"Well, Luo Yuzhu sent the news, and I almost know what happened to Taishan." Jian Ying patted his arm, "Let's eat first, you can sleep after eating, and then we'll talk slowly." ”

Zhou Shu responded with a "yes", washed his hands, and just sat down at the table, Cuifeng broke in in a hurry, "Second Young Master, Second Young Lady, the Holy Decree has arrived!" ”
