Extra: Twelve
Zhou He is young in the end.
As soon as he heard this, tears welled up in his eyes.
"My dad is gone."
When the abbot heard this, he was stunned, followed closely, slowly closed his eyes, and a line of tears flowed down his eyes.
He had already heard what Han Bai said.
originally thought that Zhou Qisheng was a general in the end and could escape.
As long as Zhou Qisheng is still alive, Niangniang's revenge can be avenged, which Cheng wants to ......
Zhou Qisheng is gone.
"Where's your mother?"
"My mother is gone."
Joe's also ...... Nope.
The abbot's chest was blunt and painful.
It was like a huge stone slab that slammed into his chest.
Just hit it so hard.
The eyes that were gently closed slowly opened, and he raised his hand to touch Zhou He's head, "How did you get out?" ”
"Me and Uncle Zhao."
The abbot followed Zhou He's gaze and saw a person vaguely at the mouth of the dense forest.
Ragged and bloodstained.
Presumably, last night in the Zhou Mansion was a bloody battle no less than the battlefield.
Qiao's family has followed Niangniang to fight on the battlefield for several years, without fear, last night, was she afraid?
Thinking of Qiao's family, thinking that the last time she called him father was three years ago, the abbot only felt that he had suffered the pain of ten thousand insects eating his heart at this moment.
Taking a deep breath, the abbot patted Zhou He's head, "You go and call Vice General Zhao, and I'll take you to the temple first." ”
Zhou Yang's little face full of tears rose, glanced at the abbot, and nodded.
He and Vice General Zhao were placed in the abbot's sedan chair.
They had only been up for a short time when two middle-aged men rushed to them.
As if they wanted to get some peerless treasure, those two people rushed straight to the abbot's side as soon as they appeared.
Through the gap in the curtain of the sedan car, Zhou He looked outside.
The two men stood with their backs to him, and he couldn't see what the man looked like, but one of them took the basket from the abbot's hand, and said something to the abbot in a suppressed voice, and the abbot took out a simple money bag from his bosom and handed it to the man.
The man did not refuse, but bowed, turned and took the basket and got on his horse and left.
They rode very fast, just as fast as when Uncle Zhao took him out of the Zhou Mansion at night.
Could it be that in Kyoto, no one has suffered like his family?
Thinking of home, Zhou He began to cry again.
Those bloody scenes made his heart sad and frightened, and he couldn't stop trembling all over.
The abbot watched as the two disappeared completely, and then turned back into the sedan chair.
The sedan chair set off and went straight to the temple.
When they arrived at the monastery, the abbot did not take them in, but followed the path to a mountain hut.
"There are many people in the temple, I can't keep you, no one knows here, you live first."
Glancing at the injuries on Vice General Zhao's body, the abbot sighed, "Repair the injuries first, and I'll find a doctor to come over later." ”
Zhou He said: "The rejuvenation medicine hall in Shilipu was opened by my mother's comrades-in-arms, and she was a doctor in the army back then, please invite her." ”
The abbot was stunned for a moment, "You said Zhao Su?" ”
Zhou He nodded, "Is it okay?" ”
He looked at the abbot with some uneasiness.
The abbot smiled, "Naturally, she is the most suitable, but I was in a hurry and forgot about her, you wait first, eat something, and I will ask someone to invite her." ”
The wooden house was apparently a place that the abbot used to take care of.
It's clean and has rice, flour and rape.
Zhao Su came quickly, and it was almost Zhou He and Vice General Zhao who put down the dishes and chopsticks, and she rushed in.
Seeing the injuries on Vice General Zhao's whole body, Zhao Su's eyes turned red, and he choked up: "What's wrong?" ”
Vice General Zhao was strong all the way, and when he met Zhao Su's question, all the strength in his heart collapsed in an instant.
A man in his forties cried out as soon as his nose was sore.
"The Zhou Mansion has been destroyed! I was lucky enough to escape with the eldest young master. ”
Zhao Su only felt that her eyes were dark, and her legs were weak, if it weren't for the abbot's help, she would have fallen to the ground.
looked at Vice General Zhao in shock, and then her eyes fell on Zhou He, and tears blurred her eyes.
"What the hell is going on? Whatever you want, just ......"
Vice General Zhao shook his head, "I don't know who did it yet, the man in black who suddenly came at night may be related to a certain important minister in the court, and the people from the Jingwei camp did not appear from beginning to end." ”
Zhao Su only felt that the strength of his whole body was about to be drained.
"All ......"
Vice General Zhao nodded, "There is only the eldest young master." ”
The abbot stood on one side with a sad face, holding the Buddha beads in his hand, but the green tendons on the back of his hand were all visible.
"It's the Thirteenth Prince."
The abbot suddenly spoke, causing the three of them to be stunned for a moment, and then looked at the abbot with shocked eyes.
The abbot slowly sat down on the chair and slowly told Han Bai what he had told him.
"Niangniang was hit by a thousand machine Gu in her body before, but she was not uprooted, the thirteenth prince ordered someone to manipulate the thousand machine Gu, on the day of Niangniang's birth, the thousand machine Gu attacked, and Niangniang's spiritual power was not used at all, and the thirteenth prince took the private soldiers he raised early in the morning to break into the palace and kill the king."
"General Zhou is the person Niangniang relies on the most, Niangniang has an accident on the front foot, and Zhou Mansion has an accident on the back foot, this person should be sent by the Thirteen Princes."
Hearing this, Zhou He's eyes suddenly split.
"I'm going to kill him!"
The abbot sighed softly, "It's not easy to kill, he is about to ascend the throne as His Majesty's own brother." ”
Vice General Zhao smashed his injured hand on the ground, "You can't just forget it!" Niangniang's hatred, the Zhou family's hatred, as long as I Zhao Jian lives for a breath, I will never let him go. ”
Zhao Su's body, which was originally paralyzed because of sadness, was full of fighting spirit under anger.
"Yes, I won't let him go."
After sorting out the ins and outs of the matter, Zhao Su began to treat Vice General Zhao's wounds.
They were all sword wounds, although they looked serious, but for people like them who marched and fought, it was actually not a big deal.
After the wound was bandaged, several people sat in the wooden house and discussed countermeasures.
"Just outside the dense forest, at the mouth of the ten-mile shop, who are the two people that the master has seen? They must have something to do with it. ”
The abbot said: "It's the person in front of Niangniang, who escaped at night by taking advantage of the chaos, and is going to the south to accumulate forces and avenge Niangniang." ”
Zhou He clenched his fists.
"We should be with them."
The abbot shook his head, "Can't be together, they go to the south, to accumulate financial resources, the thirteenth prince has ascended the throne, and it is not easy to avenge Niangniang and the Zhou family, let alone overnight." ”
After a pause, the abbot said again: "I didn't expect the Zhou family to have an accident so soon, I thought that they would go to the south to accumulate financial resources, and then cooperate with General Zhou, but it didn't come to ......."
I didn't expect the thirteen princes to be so ruthless.
directly destroyed the Zhou family's mansion.
"If we want to take revenge completely, we must completely destroy the power of the Thirteen Princes' throne, and we need someone in Kyoto to control everything."
The moment he learned from Han Bai that something had happened in the palace, the abbot already had a rough deployment arrangement in his mind.
Since Niangniang still has bloodline, they have to slowly figure it out, wait for Niangniang's bloodline to grow up, and then kill the thirteen princes with one blow.
This country should still be inherited by the descendants of Niangniang and His Majesty.
As for Zhou He......
He and the princess were originally destined to be married, but if there was such a thing between the two families, the existence of this family affair may become a fetter for the growth of the two.
Let's not mention it.
In the future, if there is a fate, they will definitely be together, if there is no fate, why force it.
He had already told Han Bai about this.
Han Bai said that he and Song Dezhong agreed that they would raise the princess as a male baby.
They plotted revenge, but they never let the princess participate in it.
Although the abbot did not accept such an arrangement, there was no better way to do it at the moment.
It is the best choice for the princess to be raised by Song Dezhong and Han Bai.
Just as everyone was discussing, Vice General Zhao suddenly thought of something.
"I remember that the Thirteenth Prince raised his eldest son on the Zhuangzi in Fengtai."
Vice General Zhao suddenly mentioned this matter, and everyone looked at him.
"Because the child's biological mother is unknown, he was taboo and disliked by the thirteen princes when he was born, and he was raised in Zhuangzi since he was a child, and the thirteen princes have never been to see it once, and he is afraid that he doesn't even know what the child looks like."
As he spoke, he looked at Zhou He.
"That kid is almost the same age as the eldest young master."
I couldn't understand what this means.
Zhao Su immediately objected, "No, Qiao Ran is such a son, and he must not be allowed to take risks." ”
Zhou He's small man got up and stood there with his fists clenched.
"What is an adventure, my father, my mother, and my whole family were killed, can you tell me to take risks? As long as you can take revenge, there is no danger that cannot be taken! ”
"......"
Zhou He waved his hand, "No!" I want to avenge my father! Avenge my whole family! Avenge the wounded soldiers raised by the Zhou family. ”
At the mention of those wounded soldiers, Zhao Su choked up again.
The abbot sighed heavily.
"If you can let Zhou He replace the eldest son, it is not impossible, once it is successfully replaced, I will find a way to let him return to the palace, so that Zhou He can be placed next to the thirteenth prince."
"But the Thirteenth Prince doesn't like his eldest son at all, Zhou He goes back, there is only one way to die, don't you think there are enough people who die!" Zhao Su broke down and cried.
The abbot said: "I didn't like it before, it doesn't mean I don't like it later, this thirteenth master, I have always believed in some ethereal things, I have a way to let him re-establish feelings for this eldest son, but ......"
The abbot looked at Zhou He.
"To survive in the palace, it is not only enough to have the emperor's love, sometimes the emperor's love is also a huge danger, which means that there are more people who want to get rid of you, and you must survive in this dangerous environment."
Zhou He looked solemn, "I'm not afraid." ”
This time, not only Zhao Su, but even Vice General Zhao was shaken.
Pursing his lips, Vice General Zhao said, "Otherwise, let's think of other ways." ”
"Other methods, not nothing, if you want to take revenge, you can only wait for Zhou He to grow up, take the fifth exam or the literary examination, enter the official career, and then gradually enter the center of power, otherwise, relying on us alone, the only way to take revenge is to prepare to assassinate and kill the thirteenth master, but what about after that? After that, the world was in turmoil, and the enemy country took advantage of the situation to invade Dayan. ”
Zhao Su and Vice General Zhao were both people who marched and fought.
The most disliked thing is war.
The suffering of war is the only thing that these soldiers can most deeply understand.
