In the crowd, a person flashed out and gently put his hand on Liu He's shoulder.

Liu He was shocked, as today, the person who can approach quietly like this without being discovered by him, I am afraid that he can count it on two hands.

Liu He looked back, and when he saw the person's face clearly, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

But Liu He suddenly felt a little strange, because even he didn't know why he was relieved when he saw this person, shouldn't he and this person be enemies?

"There are a lot of people here, let's talk in a different place." Fajie whispered, turned and walked out of the crowd alone.

Although he couldn't beat the fifth in the world, and it was even very likely that the fifth in the world was here to avenge his master, but Liu He still didn't think about it, so he followed.

Because he wanted to know what was going on, he had the feeling that only Fajie could solve all the mysteries for him.

Fajie walked in front of him, walked out of Xuchang City, and came to a deserted place outside the city.

Seeing Fajie stop, Liu He knew that it was finally time for everything to come to light.

"From today on, I will be Mr. Tianji's subordinate," as soon as Fajie stood still, he threw out a sentence that shocked Liu He beyond words.

Fajie turned his head, glanced at Liu He, pointed to a towering ancient tree on the side of the road and said, "Five days ago, that is, the day I entered Beijing with him, he said this to me under this tree. ”

Unexpected things, one after another, made Liu He feel dizzy, he simply sat on the ground directly, did not speak, and just wanted to clear a line of thought.

But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get his wish, and these inextricable events were intertwined, which made him feel numb, and what was even more terrifying was that he had no clue.

He didn't understand why Fa Zheng wanted to seize power with him in Yizhou in the first place, and died generously in Xuchang.

He also didn't understand why Cao Cao didn't summon others to Beijing, but instead summoned Fa Zheng alone, and after Fa Zheng's death, he also made public Fa Zheng's article that scolded him.

He didn't understand why Fajie was desperately loyal to Fa Zheng in the first place, and why he suddenly wanted to follow him now, and said that this was all Fa Zheng's arrangement.

What these three people do is actually not excessive, but they all have a common characteristic that people can't understand, they all lack a motive, a motive that is in line with their identity.

Fajie always stood there quietly, waiting for Liu He to stand up again, just like he stood quietly beside Fazheng at the beginning, but unlike that time, Fajie no longer had the humility he had at the beginning, but instead of a kind of perseverance.

Liu He thought for a long time, smiled bitterly at Fa Jie, stood up, patted the dust on his body, and said: "I really can't figure it out about this matter, the only possible explanation is that I misunderstood Fa Zheng, in fact, he is not as bad as I thought, he is a good person." ”

"You're right, you didn't misunderstand him, he's just a bad guy," Fajie said without hesitation, "what he did didn't look like a decent man, and countless people who died under his hands over the years, many of them were loyal ministers." ”

Liu He was no longer able to try to understand Fajie's words, and even couldn't laugh or cry, this contradictory remark could not be easily accepted by anyone who heard it.

Fajie still had a calm face, "There are many kinds of loyal ministers, and there is one kind of loyal minister, regardless of the cost, regardless of the result, and even regardless of the life or death of the people, he has to leave a mark in the history books, in order to be immortal." This kind of loyal servant deserves to die. ”

A glimmer of light flashed in Liu He's eyes, he seemed to have found a clue, and by following this clue, maybe he would be able to solve the puzzle left by Fa Zheng.

"Why do you want to follow the Fazheng?" Liu He thought about it and asked a question that he thought was the most critical.

Fajie glanced at Liu He meaningfully, and finally showed a smile, "Over the years, I have followed him, helped him do a lot of bad things, and killed a lot of good people. But he has never done a thing, sorry for the people of Shudi. ”

Liu He frowned, "Among the people you helped him kill, are there any people from Shudi?" ”

"Yes!" Without hesitation, Pharjech replied, "And there are many more." ”

Liu He smiled, "Then I can't understand it like that, what you said before is just looking for a grandiose excuse for his crime." ”

Fajie was silent for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Do you remember the young man who shouted loud slogans excitedly in the square?" ”

"Of course I remember, if it weren't for him, we wouldn't have been able to raise so many troops at once," Liu He said, frowning, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen him again, isn't it ......?"

Fajie nodded without hesitation, "That's right, he died by my sword. If he leaks the news, what will be the impact, I don't need to say, Mr. can also think of it. He is indeed an ordinary person in Shudi, but his life cannot be kept. ”

Liu He's face sank, "That's what you said, haven't you done anything to be sorry for the people of Shudi?" ”

Fajie said calmly: "This is the biggest difference between him and Mr. He was sympathetic to the people and had a merciful heart, but he was the opposite of him. He believes that only by sacrificing some people can we exchange for the long-term peace and stability of Shudi. ”

Hearing this kind of absurd remarks, Liu He breathed a sigh of relief, "I finally understand, you don't have to say it, these are all excuses, and I don't want to hear it." ”

"But you have to listen!" Without warning, Fajie was furious, and his expression became extremely excited, "You are not him, you have not experienced what he has experienced, and you have no right to accuse him!" He watched Yizhou change hands several times, and he had long understood that what a gentleman did could not save anyone, if it weren't for him, the people of Shu didn't know how far they would fall. Since you think what he did was wrong, please tell me, when you led your troops to attack Shu, if you were resisted by the defenders of Yizhou, would you retreat? ”

Liu He was speechless for a moment, and he no longer had the freedom he had just now.

Fajie glared at Liu He angrily, pressing step by step, "Let me ask you again, you know that introducing the war into Yizhou will involve the people of Shudi, why do you still do that?" If you face the people defending the city, will you put down the bow and crossbow in your hand because of this? ”

At this moment, Liu He was speechless.

Fajie's eyes were slightly red, and his voice trembled: "A person who does not hesitate to bear the infamy of being a traitor and seeking glory, and does not want to harm the people, why has he become a despicable and sinister villain in your mouth?" Will your sanctimony be able to save the people from fire and water? ”
