"Gou'er, Fang La's beheading?" Zhao Ji put down the piece in his hand, raised his head to look at Zhao Gou who walked in, and said in a straight voice.

Zhao Gou nodded and said, "Killed!" ”

"Did he ever have anything to say? Or any kind of begging for mercy? Zhao Ji hurriedly asked.

Zhao Gou shook his head and said, "I didn't say much, but I ......"

"But what?"

"But his appearance is very calm, he has never said a word from beginning to end, and he has not begged for mercy at all, as if he is ready to die and is bent on begging for death!" Zhao Gou recalled Fang La's appearance when he was tortured, he looked very calm and resolute, smiling, and blatantly dying, as if he had nothing to love, so he was a little puzzled, in his opinion, as the head of a sect, he would definitely not be so calm.

Zhao Ji was silent when he heard this, and muttered to himself: "Is her heart dead when she is dead?" ……”

When Zhao Gou heard Zhao Ji's words, he was a little surprised, and he didn't dare to ask. However, he could be sure that Fang La and his father must have known each other and had a great relationship. Even if he was puzzled in his heart, Zhao Gou didn't dare to ask the reason rashly, so as not to annoy his father.

From Zhao Ji's sad eyes, Zhao Gou saw the deep struggle in his heart, and saw him sad, his heart tightened, and he felt some ulterior secrets. It's just that none of these things are something he can participate in.

The reason why Zhao Gou guessed that there was a connection between Fang La and Zhao Ji was also seen from the time when Zhao Ji asked him to supervise Fang La. Fang Lap is the biggest enemy of the Great Song Dynasty, and he committed rebellion and angered Long Yan, which is a real crime of disrespect, even if Ling Chi is executed, it is understandable.

However, Zhao Gou saw the unbearable on Zhao Ji's face, and Zhao Ji's last words. If it is according to the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, those who commit rebellion should be punished with capital punishment, sentenced to Ling Chi, and punished with a thousand knives. Then, the corpse was thrown into the mountains and fed to the wolves, but Zhao Ji asked him to collect Fang La's corpse and then cremate it, which made him a little suspicious, but he couldn't say anything, and told him that he was not allowed to tell anyone about it.

It was Zhao Ji's words that made him a little suspicious, so he didn't ask directly, but went to the prison late at night. It's just that Zhao Gou didn't get the answer he wanted, Fang La had already been executed, and he didn't bother about this matter anymore, so he didn't think too much about it anymore, and returned to the county king's mansion with peace of mind.

After Zhao Gou left, a black shadow appeared in front of Zhao Ji and said in a deep voice: "Is this his ashes?" ”

Zhao Ji nodded and said, "This is the ashes that Go'er handed over to me, and it will definitely not be wrong." Thirteenth brother, you buried him, and as for the tombstone, he will not stand. If it is discovered by someone with a heart, I am afraid that it will cause another storm, and I am afraid that someone will take advantage of this to make trouble tomorrow morning. ”

Zhao seems to have been with Zhao Ji for decades of brotherhood, how can he not know what Zhao Ji is thinking in his heart, nodded solemnly, and said, "I know, Brother Huang, I will leave first!" ”

So, Zhao seemed to hold Fang La's ashes and turned around to say goodbye, he found a place, and then buried it with his own hands, and erected a tombstone, but there were no words written on it. At first glance, it's hard to spot that this could be a tomb.

"In the beginning, the three of us were brothers of the opposite sex; Now you are separated from us. Perhaps, this is our destiny and cannot be changed. There are some things that we can only accept as fate sets us. If it weren't for the Imperial Brother meeting her, you would not have embarked on this path, let alone become our enemy, trying to challenge the Imperial Brother's majesty. ”

"Do you know that the royal brother has never pursued the events of the past, it is nothing more than thinking about brotherhood. Even though you have forgotten, the royal brother has not forgotten, and neither have I. The royal brother has always been concerned about her, but when he learned that she was dead, he was afraid that the road taken by the imperial brother would be more difficult, and he would choose a path of no return! ”

"At the beginning, you gathered a crowd to revolt and provoked the imperial brother, but he always tolerated it, and he didn't really send the imperial army to go, just to give you this opportunity. If the army is overwhelming, I am afraid that your people are not opponents at all, and no matter how high your martial arts are, it will be difficult to escape the thousands of troops. ”

"If you hadn't done too much and used your affection to the court, for her to oppose the court alone, the three of us could still drink and talk, and it wouldn't have become today's situation. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid that I wouldn't be able to fulfill the prestige of the building, so it's okay, we can rest assured! ”

Zhao seemed to look at the tombstone in front of him intently, as if talking to himself, and as if confiding. However, Fang La could no longer hear these words. Fang La was sentenced to death, Zhao seemed to have watched in the crowd, he also knew what Fang La was thinking in his heart, such a result was neither good nor bad, and he turned around and left at random, leaving only a lonely grave without words.

When Zhao Gou returned to the mansion, he had already forgotten the relationship between Fang La and his father, and the next thing was the key to the matter. It's just that after Song Jiang and others defeated Fang La, their official positions were improved a lot, and they were divided into various places, so what he had to face was that these people would leave.

Since Zhao Gou returned victoriously, he held a banquet and drank with his brothers that night. The next day, Song Jiang and the others received a holy decree, ordering them to leave for the fiefdom immediately. Zhao Gou sometimes can't see the clues, just like Zhao Ji's attitude.

After Song Jiang and the others received the holy decree, they could only agree to come down and set off immediately, that is, tomorrow everyone will go their separate ways. That night, Song Jiang, Lu Junyi, Wu Yong, Sun Li and other four people gathered in the county king's mansion, waiting for Zhao Gou, and when they saw the four of them coming, they were a little surprised, and said, "Brothers, why are you here?" ”

Song Jiang replied: "King Jun, we have something to come!" ”

Zhao Gou didn't know what was going on, so he happily invited the four of them to go back to the house together, and when he came to the living room, he asked everyone again about their intentions, and the four of them looked at Zhao Gou expressionlessly, and said straight to the point: "King Jun, the four of us came here because we were a little worried?" ”

"What's the concern?" Zhao Gou was surprised.

Song Jiang replied: "King of the county, we, the brothers who fought with you, have accepted the canonization of the imperial court and have been added to the rank of knight. However, this time, the emperor seemed to be targeting the county king, leaving all of us away from the capital, leaving only a few people in the capital. ”

"In terms of the current situation, this is very unfavorable to the county king. This is also the reason why the four of us came, I don't know what the emperor is planning? ”

Wu Yong, the military advisor, answered: "What Brother Song Jiang thinks is exactly what we think, so we made an appointment to come together." In terms of your current situation, all of us have left, but I am afraid that there will be no more available people around you, and you will not be able to compare the forces of the DPRK with others, but I am afraid that the consequences will be somewhat serious. ”

The words of the two of them had a deep meaning, and Zhao Gou understood, meaning that his father intended to target him. The official positions and jurisdictions conferred by Song Jiang and the others are not together, and there is no power in the capital, if they are not there, the crown prince Zhao Huan and others will inevitably take this opportunity to attack and achieve their own goals, so they are all a little worried before they will come happily.
