Chapter 136: Entrustment
Zhao Zizhi listened to Cao Zhijin's words, his body froze, he turned around slowly, walked over and held Zhao Xiaomei's hands, tears raining down.
"Father, did you really kill your aunt?" Zhao Xiaomei asked him with sobs.
Zhao Zizhi glanced at Cao Zhijin next to him.
Cao Zhijin said, "I'll go out first!"
"No, Miss Cao, please stay!" Zhao Zizhi insisted.
Cao Zhijin didn't understand what he meant, but if he didn't mind, she didn't care.
"Yes, I killed her with my own hands!" He looked directly at Zhao Xiaomei's gaze and didn't dodge, "Because she is the one who poisoned you back then, and she is also one of the people who forced your mother and brother away with her own hands!" ”
"Why did Second Master Zhao say one? Could there be anyone else? Cao Zhijin asked.
"Yes, and others!" Zhao Zizhi nodded and said, "And Zhao Zixu, he is behind the scenes, and me, it was my negligence of the lady that made me their accomplice!" ”
He looked at Zhao Xiaomei and said: "Father told you that I don't want you to be used by people with ulterior motives, but my father hopes that you don't want to take revenge, with my father here, my father will let those enemies who have harmed our family pay the price one by one!"
Including himself!
He raised his hand and touched her head, the only kind of intimate gesture he had made to her in sixteen years as a father.
"Xiaomei, my father loves you, I love you like my mother and my brother, but my father is too cowardly, and my father doesn't dare to face you!"
"You are like a shadow, always standing on the sunny side of my life, blocking all the intersections that lead me to the light, as soon as I see you, I think of your mother and your brother, when I think of them, my father here hurts like a knife!"
He poked in the heart.
"If I hadn't snubbed your mother, your mother wouldn't have been sad, your poisoning became the last straw that crushed your mother, if it weren't for all this, she wouldn't have left with Brother Xue."
"After your mother and brother left, I searched for them like crazy, but there was no news."
"I know it's all my fault, but I don't have the courage to face it, I numb myself all day long, pretend that everything is still the same,—— after marriage, I don't see your mother much, as long as I don't go to your mother's residence, I won't remember that your mother and Brother Xue have left, as long as I ignore you, pretend to treat you as a guest who has lived in the Zhao family for a long time, and have nothing to do with me, I won't fall into endless self-blame......"
"I paralyzed myself day by day, until you grew up day by day, became more and more sensible, more and more well-behaved, and more and more eager for father-daughter affection......"
"I realized that my escape was only self-deception! I have tried to stand bravely in front of you, but every time I see you, my feet will adhere to the habit of so many years, and I will not hesitate to turn around and leave! ”
He put down his hand and sighed, "I know it's too cruel to tell you this, but you have the right to know that the father you think about every day is not the good father you imagined!"
"Not really!" Zhao Xiaomei grabbed his fallen hand, shook his head and said, "Father taught Xiaomei to refine weapons, and also gave Xiaomei mud dolls, in Xiaomei's heart, my father is the best father!" ”
Zhao Zizhi smiled bitterly: "For so many years, I didn't even dare to say sorry because I was afraid that I wouldn't be forgiven by you, and now that I am about to die, I think I have no scruples, so I dare to muster up the courage to say everything, but I regret it even more than before!"
"Smiling eyebrows, my father really wants to see you get married and see you happy, but my father has no chance, maybe this is God's punishment for my father's cowardice!"
"Father's ......"
"Miss Cao, there is something to ask for below!" Zhao Zizhi suddenly knelt down, looked at Zhao Xiaomei and said, "Xiaomei, kneel down for Miss Cao!" ”
Zhao Xiaomei knelt down obediently.
Cao Zhijin took a step back and looked at the two of them at a loss: "What are you doing here?"
Zhao Zi burst into tears, "The Zhao family will eat all the birds in the forest, Xiaomei can't go back to Zhao's house, Miss Cao once saved Xiaomei, and only believes in Miss Cao alone, and entrusts Xiaomei to Miss Cao, and asks Miss Cao to agree!" ”
Cao Zhijin looked at Zhao Xiaomei, her eyes were full of fear.
Cao Zhijin naturally didn't worry about leaving Zhao Xiaomei alone in the Zhao family, but thinking about what she was going to do, Zhao Xiaomei might not be safe to follow her!
Cao Zhijin had no choice but to tell the truth: "Second Master Zhao, Xiaomei is my friend, I will definitely help her when she is in trouble, but it is not safe for her to follow me!"
"To tell you the truth, the set of torture instruments that Second Master Zhao built for the Chen Palace's Mansion was actually ordered in the name of my father-in-law!"
Seeing the shock in Zhao Zizhi's eyes, Cao Zhijin continued, "That's right, King Chen arrested my father-in-law Chen Huaming, and my trip is to go to King Chen's Mansion to rescue my father-in-law!" ”
"It can't be!" Zhao Zizhi said, "King Chen's Mansion is a famous living Yama Palace in Tianzi City, and there is nowhere to enter ......."
"So I can't promise you, Xiaomei is my friend, I can't pull her to risk with me!"
Cao Zhijin asked, "I don't know what other relatives are Xiaomei?"
Zhao Zizhi shook his head and said, "I can't trust any of the people in the Zhao family, but my mother's family is ...... There is no one left, and the mother of the smiley eyebrows is an orphan. ”
Cao Zhijin pondered: "Then I'll think of a way."
Half an hour came, and the messenger came to urge, Zhao Xiaomei had tears in his eyes, but he was much stronger than just now.
"Second Master Zhao, farewell!" Cao Zhijin hugged his fist towards Zhao Zizhi, and then took Zhao Xiaomei's hand and walked out.
"Smiley!" Zhao Zizhi suddenly stopped Zhao Xiaomei.
Zhao Xiaomei quickly turned to look at him.
He looked at her with a smile, but the words he said made people's hearts twist: "Don't come to see me in the future, look at me more unintentionally, take good care of my daughter!"
The tears in Zhao Xiaomei's eyes turned, and finally she couldn't help falling, she knelt on the ground, snorted at him, and said solemnly: "Father, don't worry, Xiaomei will be!"
Cao Zhijin picked up Zhao Xiaomei and almost dragged her out of the cell.
"Miss Cao, I'm not sad, I just don't have strength in my legs, woo woo woo ......"
"I know, I know!" Cao Zhijin patted her on the back, "I'll send you back!" ”
……
Flower Garden.
The second master of the Zhao family was arrested, and the Zhao family looked calm on the surface, but in fact, the mainland had long been in chaos, and more than half of the maids in the courtyard were missing!
Cao Zhijin kept walking into the house, and no one came out to stop him.
Hua Shi sat under the window embroidering, her flowers were very bright and dazzling, and the flowers were like the real thing!
"Miss Cao is here, why hasn't anyone reported it?" She put down the embroidery and wanted to stand up, but was stopped by Cao Zhijin.
"You look so much better!" Cao Zhijin moved an embroidery pier and sat down opposite her, looking at her face and said.
She touched her face and looked at Cao Zhijin, her eyes full of gratitude: "Thanks to Miss Cao's timely rescue, otherwise I am afraid I would have been powerless!"
"How so?" Cao Zhijin looked at her fixedly and said, "Don't you have an antidote?" ”
