Li Yuanji said: "I went to inquire about Zhiyun just now, but I heard that Zhiyun was arrested because the second brother did it secretly. Big brother, if this is true, second brother he...... Why did he do it? ”

I said, "Who did you listen to?" ”

He said: "I went to a tavern, and I heard from the people next to me that they were officials from Shangdang County. ”

I frowned and looked into the distance, not wanting Li Yuanji to find out that I was restless.

Li Yuanji must have sensed my reaction, and said in a low voice: "Big brother is not surprised at all, he already knows about this, right?" ”

I ignored him.

When he saw that I didn't speak, he stopped talking and walked slowly behind me.

"Yuanji, what do you think the eldest brother should do?" I looked back at him and asked.

He was stunned, shook his head, and said, "I don't know." ”

We didn't wait for Chai Shao and Sanniang any longer, because the rumors of my father's raising troops were rampant, and the wanted notices for my arrest were posted everywhere, and I couldn't always meet a kind person like Cui Yanshu.

Therefore, as long as we can not enter the city, we will not enter the city, and we will take the path if we can go around the path, so that it will be slower.

When he was about to arrive in Jinyang, he met Chai Shao.

He was alone, and Sanniang didn't follow.

When I saw him, my first reaction was to ask, "Where is Sanniang?" ”

Chai Shao shook his head helplessly and said: "Completed, not only your letter Sanniang has read it, but even your father-in-law has a letter from Jinyang, but Sanniang refuses to listen." ”

Sanniang's character, my father and I are very clear, it must be because my father thinks that Sanniang will not listen to me, so he wrote an extra letter to urge them, but if Sanniang makes up her mind, no one can change it, so it is useless for Dad's letter to be written.

Sanniang stayed in Daxing City and traveled in men's clothes, first of all, she found her friend He Panren, who had made it by mistake, and at the same time sold all the properties of the Tang Guogong Mansion in Daxing City to contact Haojie, when Chai Shao left, Sanniang's arrangements had achieved initial results, and she had already recruited a lot of people.

But another news spread even faster, just when Li Yuanji and Chai Shao and I had just arrived in Jinyang, the acting king Yang Yu sent an edict to Taiyuan urgently, telling his father that Li Zhiyun had been executed after being escorted to the capital.

After receiving the edict, Dad didn't deal with anything for three consecutive days, only accompanied Mrs. Wan.

I didn't want to believe it anyway, so when I arrived in Jinyang, I asked Tang Lin to go back to Daxing City immediately to find out what was going on.

I also hope to find someone to go to Jiangdong and let Xun Yi, who is far away in Jiankang, come back immediately, but now that the music and books are separated, it is impossible to transmit messages.

Tang Lin traveled much faster than us, and returned to Jinyang in less than half a month.

Li Zhiyun was indeed killed.

He was only less than fourteen years old, and even Yang Yu, the acting king, didn't want to kill him, but he couldn't resist the request of General Zuo Yiwei, Yin Shishishi, and died in prison on the fifth day of being escorted to Daxing City.

Hearing this news, I not only didn't know how to face my father, but I didn't know how to face myself, and I didn't know how to face Mrs. Wan.

Her only son, although rebellious and uninhibited, is the only genius among the brothers, although he has no ambitions, but he is out of the dust, unconventional, and has always been indisputable Mrs. Wan is actually quite similar in nature, she does not ask him to fight, maybe he just wants to live a peaceful life, but such a young man who has no quarrel with the world, was killed in the troubled times before the weak crown.

My brother, whom I envied the most, died like this.

It's all because of me.

There was still a candle burning in Mrs. Wan's room, and I was far away, I didn't know whether I should go or not, what should I say when I really faced her? said that Li Zhiyun was arrested because of his carelessness? Or is it because of my father's plan, I don't care about Li Shimin for the time being, so Li Zhiyun, who has nothing to do with it, died because of this?

Zimin walked up behind me and hugged me, and said softly, "Big brother, I'll go with you." ”

I bowed my head and was silent for a long time, but I still shook my head and said, "Zimin, this matter is all because of the eldest brother, and it has nothing to do with you, so there is no need." ”

Zi Min said: "Big brother forgot again? We are husband and wife, sharing blessings and misfortunes, not to mention that my eldest brother once promised me that he would take me with him wherever he went, didn't he? ”

Her words reminded me, and I looked at the room of the eldest grandson Wuyue, and there was also a light in her room.

I reflexively hugged Zimin, and they were fine.

Seeing that I was looking at Mrs. Wan's room and refusing to move, Zimin took my hand, and I was led forward step by step by her, only to feel that every step I took, the guilt in my heart was deeper.

Standing in front of Mrs. Wan's room, Zimin wanted to knock on the door, but I stopped her, thought about it, and knelt at the door.

Seeing this, Zimin withdrew his hand and knelt down with me.

Until dawn.

The candles in the room were lit all night.

Early the next morning, the door in front of me "creaked", and Mrs. Wan finally opened the door and walked out of the room, and saw Zimin and me kneeling at a glance.

She didn't dress up, her face still had tears on her face, she didn't speak when she saw me, she only closed her eyes and took a deep breath, bypassing me and Zimin and walked away.

Zimin looked at me, but I looked at Mrs. Wan's open door.

On the outermost table, there is a piano that Li Zhiyun usually strokes.

When Zhang Wensu entered the house to teach piano skills, Li Zhiyun had the highest understanding among the brothers, and he was only four or five years old at that time. Later, he commented on his piano skills, which was not inferior to Zhang Wensu, and even Zhang Wensu said that he was no longer worthy of being Li Zhiyun's teacher.

Now, the owner of this instrument will never return.

Why is it always jealous of talent? Why would anyone insist on you dying?

I suddenly felt a hatred in my heart, hating why Li Shimin didn't care about brotherhood, even if it was for his two younger brothers, he shouldn't have played tricks on our way to Jinyang.

After a long time, footsteps sounded behind her again, and Mrs. Wan went and returned, still ignoring me, and when she entered the room, she was about to close the door.

I bowed my head and said, "I'm sorry. ”

The sound of "squeak" suddenly stopped, and Mrs. Wan seemed to have collapsed, and said weakly: "Why should I be sorry, Childe? ”

With that, he closed the door.

Zimin looked at me, suddenly hugged me, fell on my chest and cried.

I gently touched her head and smiled, "It's okay. ”

I should have borne these reproaches.

Until sunset, Mrs. Wan did not come out of the room again, and the eldest grandson Wuyue brought the food in several times, but was withdrawn as it was.

After she left, Zimin whispered to me: "The younger sister of the eldest grandson Wuji, she really knows the general situation. ”

Zimin never said cool words, let alone sarcastic people casually, but this sentence was heard in his ears, and every word was sarcastic.

I said, "Zimin, don't do this. ”

Zimin looked at me and nodded.
