Behind the bamboo curtain, in front of the lyre, Liu Ying closed his eyes and played.

Fingers plucked each string, and a thought came to mind.

The person who sobbed in front of him and whispered remorse to him was the one who had forced him to jump off the peerless peak.

Over the years, Liu Ying has repeatedly thought that if he hadn't jumped off the peerless peak, his father-in-law would not have fallen off the cliff in order to save him. He always wanted to blame Liu Jing for his father-in-law's death, but when he slept at night, he clearly knew that his father-in-law died for him, and it was his impulse and heroic heart in his youth that killed his father-in-law who loved him the most.

Liu Jing is guilty, but why shouldn't he regret it?

At this time, he only needs to continue to play the piano with one hand, and pull the rope under the case with the other hand, and the roof will immediately be shot with poisonous arrows, reaching the place where Liu Jing will never be reborn.

But when Liu Jing asked the sentence "Do I still deserve to live this cheap life", he was secretly shocked, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotions in his heart.

He remembered that after recognizing King Zhao's father and son in Wucheng, he deliberately joked to King Zhao: "Father, if I fight with your Song King 'Jing'er', who will you help?" ”

At that time, his father's voice was quiet and gentle: "Xiao Ying, in my heart, you and Jing'er have always been different. ”

"What's the difference?" he asked. ”

Father sighed lightly: "Whether you are a young man from the Zhuge family, or the king of Qi sitting on the dragon chair in the Ningguo Hall of the White Jade Palace, my father just wants you to be happy and happy for the rest of your life, and do whatever you want." But to Jing'er, I handed over the weight of a country to him who was still inarticulate. I selfishly left the place of sadness, and left the treacherous things I hated, but Jing'er carried everything in the Song Kingdom for me for no reason.

Actually, I also let him carry all this for you. Otherwise, how can you be incognito and enjoy twenty years of freedom?

Now that you have restored the Kingdom of Qi and announced your life to the world, it is equivalent to telling the world - since your mother is the princess of Qi and your father is King Huai of Song, then Qi and Song are a family, and you are more qualified than Jing'er to be the 'head of the family'.

I saw Qi Wei take away half of the Song Kingdom, but he didn't help Jing'er, because in all fairness, if you can really take the throne of the Song Dynasty, you will be happy to see it as a father. At that time, the three kingdoms of Qi, Wei and Song will be unified, and I will hand over the Zhao State to you, and the seven countries of Kyushu and the four countries will all belong to my son, such a hegemony will not be able to reach it for five hundred years. ”

He wondered, "Why is my father so partial to me?" Brother, isn't he also his father's child? Since my father has made my brother the king of Song, why did he let me achieve hegemony? ”

Regarding Liu Ying's question, King Zhao did not answer directly at that time: "The old and the old, the young and the young." In this way, the men of Zhao State are only your brothers, why don't you let them achieve hegemony? Moreover, you have both the Qi and Song bloodlines, which were originally incompatible, and you were raised by King Wei, and your existence itself can make the countries of Kyushu laugh at their enmity. ”

At that time, he didn't understand what his father said, but when he heard Liu Jing's words today, he realized that Liu Jing and his father had no father-son relationship. And Liu Jing himself only learned about this recently. It turned out that Liu Jing's position as the king of the Song Dynasty was not willing to sit at all, so he was forced to sit on him, a person who didn't know anything.

King Song worked diligently, planned for the Song State, worked hard for the Song State, and did too many things that he himself hated and regretted for the Song State.

But when he knew that he had dedicated his Chinese years to it, to whom he had dedicated his beloved Song Kingdom, and had used him for half his life, he still couldn't bear to use natural disasters to destroy the Song Dynasty.

Liu Ying thought: "Probably when he didn't know his background, he hated what he had to do as the king of Song. After he learned of his background, he was disgusted with this self who had been impregnated by the schemes of the Song King but was still soft-hearted.

When the dark and filthy scheming can no longer contain the integrity and goodness of his bones, shame torments him like a raging fire.

So much so that he repaired the mausoleum in the prime of life and gave birth to the heart of seeking death. ”

He asked if he was still worthy of this cheap life......

One string, one thought. All right

Am I going to help him die, or am I going to keep him alive?

The piano music is continuous, and all thoughts are entangled.

Should I kill an enemy, or should I keep a man who has finally developed a shameful conscience after exhausting all his plans?

My father said that if Liu Jing had not sat firmly on the throne of the Song Dynasty, I would have been at ease for 20 years. And the throne of the Song Dynasty took away his parents and his beloved...... He also wanted to avenge himself, but he withdrew his hand.

I've always wondered why Shu'er is always soft on him, but listening to what he said today, I can understand a little.

He has done evil things, but he is not a wicked man. It is easy to kill a wicked person, but it is not easy to leave a good person in power.

The cycle repeateds, and the sound of the piano slowly stops.

The old man moved the piano and wrote in silence.

After writing, he held the bamboo pole and limped slowly from behind the bamboo curtain to Liu Jing, looking down at Liu Jing, and handed him the tissue paper.

Liu Jing raised his head, took the folded paper with both hands, and met the old man's eyes, only to feel that the old man's eyes had a kind of déjà vu warmth and indifference.

Suddenly, Liu Jing remembered the origin of this déjà vu.

With white hair hanging down and a thin body, although the old man was hunched and lame, his face was withered, and his long eyebrows and long beard were white, his eyes and breath between breath and breath seemed to be no different from King Zhao who was sitting in the carriage and saying goodbye to him - warmth mixed with a little pity, and there was a bit of familiarity in the indifference.

After a moment of stunned, Liu Jing couldn't help but laugh at himself, he was still angry with King Song Huai, the so-called "father king". Perhaps, deep down in his heart, he actually wanted to tell all the words he confided today to his father, who had been looking forward to it......

After the old man turned around and walked back to the bamboo curtain, Liu Jing opened the tissue paper in his hand, which read-

"This life is not another. He lives to die, this life lives.

However, if this life is the same as the other, how can this life exist? What is his fate?

Lao Suo thinks that life is not shaped by flesh and blood, not determined by blood relatives, and not discussed by others.

The fateful one, the heart also. What the heart worries, what the heart regrets, what the heart wants, and what the heart forgives, is life.

A gentleman can go with his life and regret it.

The gentleman can forgive whatever he wishes in this life, and he can come with this life.

Since the king is a shackle and the family and country are shackles, dare to ask the gentleman why he stops here? The lonely widow who lives for his life? The depression of his life?

Today, Zhao is rich in the west, and the soldiers in the east are strong, but the Song Dynasty is in it, and the people of Kyushu are in it, and the gentleman is tormented in it. Shackles? Shackles?

If there is no Song, then the gentleman is worry-free, Zhao Chu is unobstructed, the Chu army swallows Zhao, Kyushu is unified, and the world is peaceful.

Therefore, if you die, abandon the throne, give birth to this life, and let the Song Kingdom go, you can see that the mountains and rivers are long, and the way of heaven is lofty. ”
