126 Wrong cause and effect leave hatred in vain, and settle the past to pay dust
Outside, the autumn wind was blowing, and Shao An and all the officials present stood in the cold wind, shivering from the cold one by one. Seeing Shao An standing motionless at the front, the county commander hurriedly hurried over and whispered: "Shao Xiang, it's better to go back to the carriage to avoid the wind first." ”
"No need." Shao An said, the cold wind carried his words, as if a little coldness had been added to his tone.
The county magistrate was bored with himself, so he had to retreat. Xindao is going to fight now, and he can use General Gao, so Shao Xiang is just going to Chengmen Lixue, it's too late.
Feng Che had been in for half an hour, and he hadn't come out yet. After all, that incident was too long, and Feng Che would be unable to explain it for a while.
So everyone waited in front of Gao Wei's door for a long time, Liu Ruqing looked at the gate of Gao Mansion with a gloomy face, thinking what kind of score Gao Wei is putting here now, and when you know the truth, when you cry.
At this time, the side doors of the main entrance, which had been closed, were all opened, and I saw Gao Wei leading the whole family to greet him. This grand posture, even if he is as calm as Shao An, he can't help but be stunned.
"Shao Xiang!" Gao Wei strode towards Shao An, and shouted from afar. It was as exciting as seeing my loved ones. Everyone present knew that the Xiangdang Pivotal Party had been fighting for many years, and all of them widened their eyes, feeling that they were wrong?
Shouldn't it be avoided, shouldn't it be a cold eyebrow? Is this old man in front of him really General Gao? However, what surprised them was still to come, I saw Gao Wei walk in front of Shao An and kneel down with a "poof".
Everyone: "......! ”
"What is this for?" Shao An hurriedly bent down to help, "General Gao, please get up quickly." ”
"Shao Xiang!" Gao Wei stopped Shao An's movements, and said with tears in his eyes, "I'm ...... I'm wrong for you, I'm sorry for you. ”
One by two, now as soon as they saw him, they began to repent, and Shao An couldn't stand it a little. He smiled bitterly and said, "General Gao was also deceived by Sun Yi, which is not to blame you." ”
"No, not only did I blame you, but I also ......," Gao Wei said this, bowing his head guiltily, "If I hadn't despised Wenchen back then, I wouldn't have forgotten to send troops to Sun Yi to protect him." What you said back then was right, it was my prejudice that harmed me, also harmed you and Li Hongyi's inability to recognize each other, and harmed hundreds of officers and men of our army to bury their bones in the yellow sand. ”
Gao Wei has been stubborn all his life, admitting death, and no one can make sense. didn't expect this revelation of the truth, but in his twilight years, he finally figured it out. Shao An didn't know whether to be happy or sad, he helped Gao Wei up: "Everyone was at fault for what happened back then, and you can't be blamed for everything." ”
"Yes, everyone is at fault, but you were exiled to Qianzhou alone and took all the blame." Gao Wei wiped his old tears and looked at Shao An sadly, "You should have a happy and peaceful life, but it is we who ruined your life." ”
Shao An shook his head, "Life is your own, and no one can control anyone's life." And I never regret what I did before, and I don't remember the past. General Gao, people still have to look forward. The road ahead is bumpy, and you still need to go to the national disaster with you. ”
Gao Wei then remembered that there was still something to do, so he asked Shao An to enter the mansion first, and said as he walked: "Lord Feng said a rough idea, what is the specific situation in the capital, the last general still doesn't know." ”
"Commander Zhang sent someone to investigate, and this time I came to hope that General Gao would fully cooperate with me and convene King Qin's division together to solve the crisis in the capital."
Gao Wei swore and said: "The last general will take the order." Shao Xiang is clever, and he will be at your disposal in the end. ”
Gao Wei and Shao An entered the mansion and discussed the march and formation. Liu Ruqing looked at the local official with a shocked expression on his face amusedly, and he was in a very happy mood. Now that the truth is revealed, those who have questioned Shao An and hated Shao An have begun to know that they are wrong. Liu Ruqing couldn't wait to look up to the sky and laugh, but when she smiled and smiled, she remembered the poem: Xiang Envoy died at the beginning, who knows the truth of his life?
Yes, if that arrow five years ago really killed Shao An. Then he never knew the truth of the year, and went into the ground with a body of grievances. Even if Li Hongyi can remember it in the end, what is the use? And those people, in order to prevent Li Hongyi from being sad, will definitely not let him recover his memory.
※※※※※
In the next few days, Shao An and others temporarily stayed in Gaofu and discussed the matter of King Qin with Gao Wei.
The spies sent out by Zhang San also responded, and it was reported that Li Hongyi had returned before Xi'ou arrived in the capital. However, at this time, Xi'ou attacked on both sides, surrounded on all sides, and trapped the capital in a desperate situation of complete isolation.
"General Song Yi is currently rushing to the capital with 200,000 soldiers." Zhang San said.
"How can 200,000 drop a bucket resist 400,000 enemy soldiers? Xiou is the best at besieging the city and sending reinforcements, so don't easily contact the enemy. Gao Wei said wistfully, "We have to go and intercept him quickly, so that he can join us first." ”
"Brother Zhang, send a reliable person with a military talisman to General Song Yi and order him to suspend the march." Shao An instructed, "General Gao, we also have to leave as soon as possible, time is running out." ”
"The last general commands." Gao Wei is really looking at Shao An's horse now, and there is nothing to say.
After Gao Wei and the others went down, only Shao An and Zhang San were left in the room. Shao An looked at Zhang San who was pacing back and forth inexplicably, and said, "Brother Zhang has something to say, when did he spit out like this?" ”
Zhang San said depressedly: "When the three teams investigated the news, they saw from a distance that there was a familiar old man in the Xiou army, who was a hidden guard...... Sixth. ”
"Zhao Liu?" Shao An was shocked, he didn't expect that he would be mixed with Xiou after being missing for many years.
"We have made an oath to serve the Lord faithfully, and we will never have two hearts. How could he betray the emperor? ”
Shao An shook his head, Zhao Liu was forced to rebel by the emperor. And Zhang San, like his silly brother, is still loyal to the emperor. The Emperor's control of the hidden guards was really successful.
"There's one thing I haven't told you." Shao An slowly opened his mouth and revealed the truth, "Back then, Ding Yi's death was related to Zhao Liu. ”
"Huh?" Zhang San was shocked, "Something to do with Zhao Liu?" ”
"The assassins who assassinated the emperor back then, don't you really see anything from their figures?"
Zhang San vigorously recalled the situation back then, those assassins were in good shape and had strange postures, and when they thought about it, they seemed to have seen them somewhere.
"They...... Is it the people of Team Six? Zhang San suddenly opened his eyes, although the sixth team was responsible for the assassination, and the other teams did not interact often. But after all, they have practiced together, and they have seen their swordsmanship and figures.
Shao An nodded, "You guessed right, it's Team Six." And Ding Yi died at the hands of Team Six. ”
"They have eaten the gall of the bear's heart and leopard, and they dare to assassinate the saint?" Zhang San was completely stunned, and said angrily and painfully, "I'm going to kill Zhao Liu, he killed the boss, I want to avenge the boss!" ”
"They are royal guards, how can they kill their master?" Shao An said, "It was the emperor who instructed him." ”
"What?" Zhang San never thought that it was the emperor who killed Ding Yi. He looked at Shao An in a daze, shook his head and said, "I don't believe it, I don't believe it." ”
"Your Majesty, he is shocked. I didn't agree with the matter of the hidden guard back then. He acted in such a play, and his original intention was to kill you and threaten me. But he didn't expect ......"
"He didn't expect that Boss Ding blocked that knife for me." Zhang San suddenly sat down on the ground, looking at the void ahead, as if he had seen that thrilling scene again......
The other party suddenly resorted to a desperate killing, and Boss Ding flew over and blocked in front of him. In the shadow of the sword and sword, I saw the other party slashing towards Ding Yi with a sword, and blood was splashed on the spot.
This scene has been Zhang San's nightmare for many years, and the past is vivid, convulsing and remorse like a needle cone.
"No !!" Zhang San cried bitterly, he really believed the wrong people, they were born and died for the emperor, but the emperor treated everyone as a pawn and played with it wantonly.
Shao An squatted down and hugged the trembling Zhang San tightly. The truth is so distressing, but he doesn't want to make up a beautiful world full of lies for Zhang San like he did with his brother.
After a long time, Zhang San finally regained his composure. Shao An asked, "Now that you know the truth, are you still willing to go to King Jingshi Qin with us?" If you don't want to go, I won't force it......"
"Go, why don't you go?" Zhang San wiped away his tears and said coldly, "I'm not just going for the emperor." There are also second, fourth and fifth children in Beijing, as well as so many hidden guard brothers, and tens of millions of Li people. However, after this incident, I don't want to do any more to command the guards. ”
Looking at the disheartened Zhang San, Shao An sighed slightly, he left Beijing back then, why wasn't this state of mind. The emperor is a person, although he raised them since childhood, and he is also dedicated to them. But after being in that position for a long time, it seems that they are nothing compared to power.
"By the way, you just said that the second, fourth and fifth are in the capital, so Xu Qi is not there?" Shao An asked.
Zhang San shook his head, "Xu Qi went out of Beijing with us." But he's going to pick someone up first, and you'll see him in a few days. ”
"Who's picking it up?"
"A ...... you don't know, but have a deep relationship with you" Zhang San suddenly sold a pass, pretending to be mysterious, "Someone you would never think of." ”
Shao An looked at Zhang San in wonder, but he became more and more curious about the mysterious person in his heart.
※※※※※
A few days later, at dawn, Xu Qi really came to Gaofu with a little boy of seven or eight years old.
"Old Seven, it's been hard all the way." Zhang San took the child in Xu Qi's hand and looked at him, "This child is so cute." ”
"No, I'm tired. Qianzhou is really a bitter cold place, remote and desolate. Xu Qi looked at the child and thought of Shao An again. He was also a young man and spent two years in exile there.
"Qianzhou, he's from Qianzhou?" Shao An heard movement in the house and greeted him. As soon as I arrived at the door, I heard the word "Qianzhou".
"Yes, he's ......" Xu Qi had just said half of his sentence when he heard Zhang San cough lightly, interrupting his unfinished words.
Because, Shao An has already guessed who this child is.
