Chapter Seventy-One: The Year (1st Watch)
Neither of them expected that Xu Qingyan would know the purpose of their trip.
After An Huajin and Shen Yuan were stunned, they glanced at each other, An Huajin let go of the horse's reins, turned around and asked Xu Qingyan, "Brother Qingyan, how do you know?" Who told you that? ”
As far as yesterday seems to be, he didn't know, how did he know it overnight? What happened that night?
Xu Qingyan took out a letterhead from his arms and handed it to An Huajin, "This is someone who put a letter in my room." ”
An Huajin took the letterhead and opened it, the letterhead was very brief, only two sentences were written, the first sentence was "Eight years ago, in the Battle of Yuxueling, Zhang Zaifu bribed Xu Jing to attack the An family father and son, causing the An family father and son to bury their bones in the battlefield. The second sentence is that Anhua Jin came to the Xu family in Qingzhou, and he must do this. After the payment, he wrote three big characters without changing his name and surname, Zhang Chengze. ”
An Huajin took a deep breath, this Zhang Chengze, it turned out that there were also people in Qingzhou.
Since Fenggupo met Zhang Chengze, An Huajin naturally knew that Zhang Chengze was not simple, smart, scheming, capable, and means, although he felt that his goal was not achieved in Fenggupo, he was afraid that there was a trick, but he didn't expect that he would do it so quickly, and he calculated so accurately, and reported to Xu Qingyan last night.
Zhang Chengze's letter didn't even shy away from anyone's name, obviously telling her that what he said asked her to verify.
An Huajin was silent for a while, and said in a low voice to Xu Qingyan, "Brother Qingyan, I don't want you and me to even grow up in the future, and we will not interact with each other from now on." For the sake of sister-in-law and Ning'er, it shouldn't be. ”
Xu Qingyan said in a deep voice, "Little sister, I don't have much father-son relationship with him, you just go to him." Uncle An, Qichen, and Qiyan can't die in vain, even if he is my father, if it is really what he did, I can't forgive him, let alone just forget it. ”
An Huajin was silent.
Shen Yuanzhi said on the side, "Little girl, since Brother Qingyan has said so, let's go!" I also want to know what he did back then. ”
An Huajin nodded, "Okay." ”
Just left, she compromised for Xu Qingyan, Xu Qingling, and An Yining, but it doesn't mean that there is really no trace in her heart, she understands what is the most important thing for the current An family and her, but since Zhang Chengze intervened, since Xu Qingyan knew and asked her to ask, then, she went to ask, and the matter was completely closed.
The group of three returned to the mansion and came to Xu Jing's courtyard.
After entering the courtyard gate, Xu Qingyan ordered, "Everyone who is serving in this courtyard is allowed to go out, and they are not allowed to come in without my order." ”
An old slave who had been waiting for Xu Jing for a long time was stunned, "Young Master Yan? ”
"You go out too." Xu Qingyan commanded.
The old slave had never seen Xu Qingyan's cold as frosty look, and felt that something big must have happened, so he glanced at the inner room, lowered his voice and said, "Childe, the master didn't sleep all night last night, he didn't have breakfast this morning, and he didn't drink the medicine......"
"Get out!" Xu Qingyan commanded.
The old slave stopped talking, bowed and withdrew.
"Changming, guard this courtyard, no one is allowed to come in." Xu Qingyan commanded his close guards.
"Yes, Childe."
Changming led people to guard Xu Jing's courtyard.
Xu Qingyan glanced at An Huajin and Shen Yuan, and immediately opened the curtain and entered Xu Jing's house. Suddenly, Xu Qingyan's voice came from the back room, as if something was still on Xu Jing's body, "Father, take a look for yourself, do you still deserve me to call you father?" ”
Xu Jing opened his eyes, saw the letterhead that smashed on him, was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Xu Qingyan's cold face as frost, he slowly reached out and picked up the letterhead that had smashed on him, and when he unfolded it, his face turned white in an instant, and his hands trembled, and he could barely hold the small letterhead.
Xu Qingyan saw his emotional expression clearly, closed his eyes, and said with a deep disappointment in his tone, "It seems that you are not worthy of me calling you father." ”
When the words fell, he said to the outside, "Come in!" ”
An Huajin and Shen Yuanzhi stretched out their hands to open the curtain and entered the back room.
In the eyes, there was Xu Jing's body that was shaking into chaff, and his white and bloodless face.
Shen Yuan took a step forward and asked angrily, "Uncle Xu, we have called you Uncle since we were young, I wanted to ask you yesterday, but the little girl said it for the sake of Brother Qingyan and Sister Qingling, now, let me ask you, what are you for?" Is it really for his own selfish feelings that he has killed Uncle An, Qichen and Qiyan's brothers? How did you get started? Uncle Ann never treats you lightly. ”
The letterhead in Xu Jing's hand fell on the futon with a "click", he covered his face all of a sudden, tears fell from the thin fingers he covered, and he cried silently.
Xu Qingyan, An Huajin, and Shen Yuanzhi all looked at him.
After a while, he suddenly burst into tears, desolate and mournful.
Xu Qingyan said angrily, "Mother is obviously saved, but you deliberately delayed the doctor not to help, because your mother knows the dirty thoughts hidden in your heart, and you are afraid that your mother will make trouble and be known, which will ruin your reputation for virtue?" So, you deliberately let your mother have a cold and drag her body down, do you think no one knows? ”
Xu Jing let go of his face, and suddenly cried and laughed, "Yes, I have dirty thoughts, I am sorry for too many people, do you know why I don't want to live and dare not die in the past eight years?" That's because I'm afraid that I will be ashamed to go underground and see them after I die. ”
Xu Qingyan said angrily, "They will all go to heaven, and you will only go to hell." ”
Xu Jing seemed to have just woken up from a big dream, and suddenly stopped crying or laughing, and muttered, "Yes, they are all good people, they will all go to heaven, only me, only me, will go to hell......"
Xu Qingyan said with red eyes, "I thought that you were just filthy and cold-blooded and ruthless to your mother, but I didn't expect that you were not only dirty and dirty, but to the point of extinction of humanity." ”
Xu Jing's voice was hoarse, like a withered leaf in the wind, and his body kept trembling, "That year, it was obviously me who met her first, I was just a step late, but I found that my good brother had come to the door to propose marriage, and the Nanyang Royal Mansion was heavy on troops and power, so I naturally couldn't fight for ......."
"So, do you secretly hate Uncle Ann?" Xu Qingyan's voice was also hoarse.
"On the day of their wedding, I had a hangover all night, I also wanted to forget her, but I couldn't forget, and then I watched them love each other, I thought about staying away, but he regarded me as a good brother, and often pulled me to drink together, I thought it was far away, so I struggled day by day in jealousy and hatred, your mother's death, it was really not me who deliberately delayed, I was disturbed that day, and when I came back to my senses, it was too late, I was sorry for her, and then this matter, you know, you hate me, and I was learned by the Zhang family's secret pile in Qingzhou, Since then, I have been drilling into a gap and lobbying me, but I have always refused, but eight years ago, Zhang Zaifu's eldest son went to Qingzhou, and his majesty's inner guards were followed by him, saying that His Majesty had a secret decree, and at that time, I was also fed up, since His Majesty did not allow him, then, it is no wonder that I am not to blame. So, I agreed, with me as the internal response, he will not defend me, I want to know what army map, border map, battle plan, are very handy, it is really smooth......"
Zhang Chengze turned his face away, "If you weren't my father, I would have killed you myself." ”
Xu Jing continued as if he hadn't heard it, "Because it's so easy, I don't have the slightest pleasure of revenge, I thought that I wouldn't regret it, but in the end, after the battle of Yuxueling, I heard that the three of them were buried in the battlefield, I regretted it, I really regretted it......"
As he spoke, he suddenly raised his head and looked at An Huajin, "Little girl, kill me!" I should have died a long time ago. ”
Shen Yuanzhi was furious, "Do you want her to kill you and dirty her hands?" ”
"Yes, I shouldn't have let her get her hands dirty, I should have cut myself off, I should have cut myself off a long time ago......," Xu Jing muttered, and suddenly raised his hand to slash at his Heavenly Spirit Cover.
An Huajin stepped forward, stopped his hand with the back of his sword, said in a cold tone, and said expressionlessly, "Uncle Xu, if you die like this, you will die a hundred times, but I don't agree." ”
Xu Jing raised his eyes and looked at her, "Little girl, do you still want me to continue to live and be condemned by my conscience?" Is it enough to suffer from illness? ”
An Huajin said calmly, "At least, let the whole world know how His Majesty conspired with Zhang Zaifu back then, and cruelly calculated and killed loyal ministers and good generals, so if you want to die, you have to tell the truth in person before you die." ”
Shen Yuanzhi nodded, "That's right, you died like this, it's too cheap." ”
The emperor who sits high on the dragon chair and is the only one, where does he deserve to enjoy the praise of the people? Although he is not worthy now, he cannot let this old case be buried and no one will know what he did.
Xu Qingyan said angrily, "The doctor I brought back, let him treat you, you have done what you should do and then die, the sins you have done, before you die, you had better atone for it." ”
Xu Jing woke up for a while, and nodded, "Okay." ”
