Xia Xin couldn't find anything after all.

When the shadow caught up, the man was gone.

Xia Xin searched for a long time in the vicinity, looking for all the places he could find, but he still couldn't find it until dark.

This also forced him to give up and go to a nearby private clinic to have his leg bandaged.

Luckily, the leg injury wasn't serious, or rather, it wasn't serious compared to the injuries he had suffered in the past.

Because of today's snowy day, the speed of the truck is not fast, and the other party is an old driver, so when he saw the figure and felt wrong, he immediately stepped on the brakes.

Xia Xin was just rubbed off by the truck.

I guess it's a lot better luck than before.

But he couldn't be happy at all.

Because he couldn't find Sasha after several searches, he even wondered for a moment if he was wrong.

Xia Xin returned to the hotel, asked Ying'er and Xuan Bee to check the video to see if they could find some clues about the four princes, and then went out again.

He looked at the intersection again with some reluctance, but he couldn't see anything but the passing cars.

He paced back and forth for an hour when he saw Yisha, and then came to the sanatorium to see Shiqi.

It's just that it's impossible to take Xia Shiqi out today.

Xia Xin smiled bitterly, "Then the head nurse will send a nurse to guard the door." ”

Xia Shiqi thought for a while and said, "Then let's play in the room." ”

"Okay."

Xia Xin agreed.

The bandage on his calf was tied inside his pants, so Xia Shiqi couldn't see it.

The two of them sat in the room watching TV.

Xia Xin sat on the edge of the bed, Xia Shiqi lay in the quilt, leaning on his shoulder, holding his arm, and watching TV quietly.

Xia Shiqi has not been accompanied for a long time, no one has spoken, she hasn't even seen a few domestic people for a long time, and when she sees a few peers, she wants someone to accompany her, even if she doesn't speak, it's very happy.

Although Xia Xin's eyes were watching TV, he actually didn't know what the idol drama on TV was playing, and he was thinking about Yisha all over his head.

Thinking about where Yisha lived, what she was doing, what she was eating, drinking, sleeping, and how she was doing.

And, according to his guess, isn't Yisha pregnant?

But judging from the other party's posture just now, she is not pregnant.

Moreover, the clothes also feel very earthy, not salsa style.

Did you guess wrong, or did you read it wrong?

However, Xia Xin felt that he would not be wrong, after all, he had lived for so long, how could he be wrong.

Xia Shiqi watched the TV for a while, glanced at Xia Xin's side face, looked at the TV again, and glanced at Xia Xin again, back and forth a few times, and finally mustered up the courage to ask, "Are you cold, do you want to come to the quilt?" ”

Xia Xin shook his head lightly and said, "It's okay, I'm not cold." ”

When Xia Shiqi heard this, she immediately replied angrily, "Oh, then you go and die." ”

"Huh?"

Xia Xin didn't understand why he was going to die if he wasn't cold.

Is there a connection between the two?

However, looking at Xia Shiqi's puffed little face and an unkind expression, Xia Xin was very rational and did not pursue the answer to this question.

"By the way, Shiqi, uncle, where does he work, he seems to have a job at night."

"Looks like it's ......"

Xia Shiqi reported the name of a government building.

"Oh......"

Xia Xin nodded, "Shiqi is late, don't you want to sleep?" ”

"I don't want to."

Xia Shiqi replied expressionlessly.

"Do you want to go to Dad, just let you go, and I don't need you to accompany me."

“……”

Xia Xin almost didn't answer, "Then I'm really leaving." ”

Fortunately, after years of practice, he is not so stupid now.

"No, I'll just ask, don't I have to talk to him about when to take you back?"

These words made Xia Shiqi's face look happy, and the corners of her mouth outlined a shallow smile.

"If you still know, then you can go, I'll see for myself."

"I'll leave when you're asleep."

"Hmm...... Then I went to sleep. ”

Xia Shiqi said, retracting into the quilt, but still holding Xia Xin's hand......

By the time Xia Shiqi fell asleep, it was already half past ten in the evening when Xia Xin left.

Xia Xin called a taxi and rushed directly to the government building.

The security guard looked at the medal on Xia Xin's chest and didn't stop him.

This is probably the luckiest time in Xia Xin's life, when he first came to the top of the list, he got this medal because of the robbery case.

Even though it's night, there are still quite a few people working the night shift in the building.

Xia Xin looked inside and found the figure of Xia Chaozong, who was still busy in the office.

"Knock Knock"

Xia Xin knocked on the door three times.

After hearing Xia Chaozong say, "Please come in", he walked in quickly.

Xia Chaozong glanced at Xia Xin in surprise, but he didn't expect it to be Xia Xin.

He frowned slightly and said, "What are you looking for me to do?" ”

Xia Xin walked a few steps quickly, put his hands on the table, leaned forward towards Xia Chaozong behind the desk, and said, "Uncle, let me tell you straight, let me meet Duke Charlie......"

“……”

When Xia Chaozong heard this, he nervously stretched out his hand to stop Xia Xin, gestured to the back with his eyes, and said, "Do you want to die?" ”

The so-called partition wall has ears, not to mention that this is a government building, and there are eyeliners everywhere, and every word spoken here can reach the ears of the people above.

Xia Chaozong didn't have a good breath, "Follow me." ”

With that, he took the lead and walked out all the way upstairs.

Xia Xin followed behind like this, and followed Xia Chaozong to the top of the building.

On the top of this pitch-black building, there was no one, only the snowflakes that kept falling from the sky, covering the ground with a thin layer of snow, and the searchlights in the distance flickered back and forth in the sky.

Xia Chaozong stood with his back to Xia Xin, thought for a long time before taking a deep breath, turned around, and said sternly to Xia Xin, "If you fall again, you will be asking for hardship, I advise you to go back quickly." ”

"Uncle, I just understand, I know you can definitely do it, don't you, now only you can contact him, you said you want to bring an assistant or something, it's no problem at all."

"I know you must have heard something, but before you do something, you have to think about who your opponent is."

"I know, the fourth prince, he has already sent someone over to kill me, is it because I have backed down, he will not continue to trouble me? No, without a fair and honest reason, he can only find someone to assassinate me, and once I have an honest reason, I will definitely not be able to leave this country, I know this very well. ”

"Can I be condemned as treason when I see Charlie? Or is it characterized as fornication? ”

Xia Xin's mind is still very clear.

Xia Chaozong pointed at Xia Xindao, "Stupid, you still don't understand, if you go to see him now, then your opponent is not him alone, but the two most powerful people in the empire, the queen and the four princes, in order not to let you do bad things, the two will join forces to expel the trouble and offend these two people, do you think that you will still go abroad when the time comes." ”

“……”

Xia Xin fell silent for a moment.

"Is it true that the queen really doesn't want him to die, but doesn't want him to live?"

Xia Chaozong stared at Xia Xin and said sternly, "If you still want to enter politics, save it, you are not that material." ”

After a pause, Xia Chaozong still explained, "He used to be kind to the royal family, so the queen didn't want him to die, but he had to get along with the four princes, and he wanted to impeach the four princes, and the queen didn't want him to do this, in fact, as long as he was willing to bow his head and don't sue the four princes, there would be nothing to do, but if he could bow his head early, he was a person who would rather die than give in, even if he died, he would also ask for the lives of the civilians." ”

"That's the most troublesome part."

"Uncle, doesn't that mean he's a good man?"

Xia Chaozong replied sharply, "Can a good person eat as a meal?" This is the end of good people's obsession. ”

Xia Xin also replied excitedly, "Uncle, as an internationally renowned barrister who has sworn an oath in the law, shouldn't you be a judge of bad people, but a good person is innocent, you should follow the law, not the royal power." ”

"Don't tell me these big truths, as far as you know, it's still far away, I'm desperately looking for information now, and trying to keep him from dying, which is already the biggest contribution I can make."

Xia Xin replied loudly, "Uncle, when you know that the other party has been wronged, you don't want to help him get rid of his guilt, but you want to obey the meaning of the above, is this really your original intention to be a lawyer?" I finally understand why you said yesterday that when you and your father were in college, they would pursue unrealistic dreams, because at that time, you studied law just to avenge the good guys and convict the bad guys, didn't you? ”

"Even if you dream of being compromised by reality, but this time it's different, it's about a country, it's about tens of thousands of refugees, you must know what treatment they have suffered, Duke Charles must have told you, but you chose to turn a deaf ear and turn a blind eye, right?"

Xia Chaozong's eyes widened and glared at Xia Xindao, "That's why I said that you are too tender." ”

"Good guys? Villain? Whose criterion is this? Standing from different angles, the things you see are right and wrong, good or bad, are completely different, and you still don't understand such a simple truth to the point where you are now? Still so naïve? ”

"You're going to have to disappoint your father."

Xia Xin did not flinch, and replied-for-tat, "I don't know if he is disappointed, I only know that my mother has always taught me to help others within my ability, especially this is still a good person who sacrifices his life for the country and the people." ”

"Do you think he's right, that he's doing the right thing?"

"Then I tell you now, those refugees are completely useless to the country, and will only increase the burden of the state, and the existence of 100,000 refugees is likely to drag down 1 million people, greatly increase the national food gap, the burden of disaster relief, drag down the government, drag down the people, and seriously waste the resources of the society without contributing to the society."

"And now, they're being used for research, and while reducing the burden on the country, they're going to make the biggest contribution to the country, and you just see that now they're dead, they're being researched and dead, but if I tell you that the research will be successful in two years, their sacrifice will contribute to humanity all over the world, and then the incidence of human beings, the chance of cancer will be reduced by 50 percent, and the ability of human beings to resist disease will be increased by 500 percent, do you still think so?"

"Any change requires someone to sacrifice, the sacrifice of tens of thousands of people, to contribute to billions of people around the world, for hundreds of millions of people in this country, to create a good living environment in the future, so that millions of sick people can be cured, do you still think this is a bad thing?"

"......" Xia Xin was silent for a moment, he stared at Xia Chaozong with such an unbelievable expression, and asked, "Can human life be counted like this?" Is this an arithmetic problem? ”

“…… Don't ask me what I think, you have to ask the people at the top how they see the problem, don't take your stupid civilian point of view, remember to use your brains more, try to think from the top and from the perspective of the royal family, you will know who is the good guy and who is the bad guy in their eyes? ”

Xia Xin replied unconvinced, "Then you are going to tell me that this fourth prince, this fourth prince who killed him, the second prince, and forced the third prince away, in order to inherit the queen's throne, is a good person?" ”

"Heh", Xia Chaozong sneered and retorted mercilessly, "Do you know the Tang Dynasty? Do you know the changes in Xuanwumen, and do you know Li Shimin, who killed his eldest brother and fourth brother? But do you still remember what his eldest brother's name was, what his surname was, and what his fourth brother's name, surname, and name? ”

"......" Xia Xin couldn't speak.

"I don't remember, right, because no one remembers, no one cares."

Xia Chaozong said coldly, "Maybe his eldest brother and fourth brother are also good people, but so what, according to historical records, 99% of the people only know Tang Taizong Li Shimin, know his great achievements, and know that he created the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty, do you see other people talking about him praising or scolding, and someone scolds him for killing his own brother?" ”

"No, from the perspective of the people, he has done good things and made everyone rich, from the perspective of the royal family, he is a good person for the royal family to stabilize the world, expand the territory, and open up a prosperous world."

"Good guy - Li Shimin, when the time comes, the people will praise him."

“……”

"So, you come back now and tell me, what did the fourth prince do wrong?"

“……”

Xia Xin just stared at Xia Chaozong like this, and wanted to say something, but he found that he opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.

He couldn't find anything to refute Mr. Xia's argument......

From his point of view, these four princes ...... He's a good guy too!

This is something that Xia Xin absolutely can't accept.
