Slightly sour in the land centrifugation.

He couldn't tell whether this sourness was for the Rong family or for An Xiaojiu.

The silent cemetery is only the sound of insects and birds.

Lu Li looked at the tombstone in front of him and was speechless for a long time.

On the tombstone, are the names of Rong Jing and An Xiaoqi. Uncle Rong thought that Chixia Town was a sad place, so he moved An Xiaoqi's tomb and buried it with Rong Jing.

"Brother Rong, I'll just call you that with Xiao Jiu. You know, even though I'm in a dilemma now, I still don't regret stealing Xiao Jiu back then. Actually, you agree with that, right? ”

Lu Li was really discouraged back then, he thought that Xiao Jiu would hate him, but he didn't expect Xiao Jiu to even hate himself.

Xiao Jiu, who seems to be particularly strong, couldn't bear An Xiaoqi's death, and actually committed suicide by cutting his wrists in front of An Xiaoqi's tombstone.

Originally, he also thought that An Xiaojiu was really dead, and there was no way to do it anymore.

Until that day, he overheard the conversation between Uncle Rong and Rong Jing......

——

"Rong Jing, have you really thought about it?" Uncle Rong's face was solemn, and his expression was not very good-looking.

Rong Jing was a little relaxed, as if nothing important had happened, "What else is there to think about?" Uncle, isn't this the fate of our Rong clan? ”

Protecting the imperial family has always been the responsibility of their Rong family.

Everyone in the world thinks that the Rong family is only loyal to the emperor's family for generations, but in fact, the relationship between the two clans is not clear.

It's as if the world doesn't know where the emperor's family came from and why they have secret arts.

In fact, the Rong family also knows secret techniques, but the secret techniques of the Rong family can only have an effect on the people of the imperial family. To put it bluntly, the Rong family is actually the guardian family of the emperor family, and after the birth of each generation of the emperor's family, there will also be a person who can know secret arts in the same generation of the Rong family.

The emperor's heavenly ruler is An Xiaojiu, and the only one in the Rong family who knows secret techniques is Rong Jing.

"Actually, uncle, this may be a relief for me." Rong Jing has been blaming himself for not protecting Xiao Qi that day.

If he hadn't fallen asleep in the carriage that day, he wouldn't have failed to react at the most critical moment.

This matter, like a thorn, at first just gently pierced the heart, not very painful, but over time, day by day, day by day, it will make the wound fester, let the heart ...... It hurts terribly.

Uncle Rong was unwilling: "Rong Jing, why do you want to go against the sky?" You should know that the so-called secret art is nothing more than a life for a life! Perhaps, this is where Xiao Jiu ends. The Emperor of Heaven is dead, no one is helpless! ”

"Uncle, why do you think so? You should know that the Imperial Family is not just the Imperial Family. Rong Jing seemed to have something in his words, but he didn't mean to explain it clearly.

Uncle Rong naturally understood it, but Lu Li, who was eavesdropping, didn't understand. But he didn't care about this, he was now attracted by what he just said, "one life for one life".

Could it be that the Rong family has a way to resurrect Xiao Jiu?

"So what? The emperor family is not only the emperor's family, but the Rong family is just the Rong family! You are the last person who knows the secret arts, if you die, then the secret art of the Rong family will be interrupted, have you ever thought that this may be the backlash to your children? ”

This is the real reason why Uncle Rong is unwilling to let Rong Jing exchange his life for a life to save An Xiaojiu!

No one knows what the two clans formed such a relationship for, anyway, they all know that there is a contract between the two clans.

If the heir of the emperor's family is still there, but the Rong family has lost its secret art, there will be evil consequences for the Rong family.

The most likely to be countered are Rong Jing's two daughters!

"Uncle, as long as Xiao Jiu is still alive, he will be able to find other emperor families, even if there is a backlash, Xiao Jiu will definitely find a way to solve it. Not to mention...... Except for Xiao Jiu, are you sure that there is no one in the emperor's family? ”

Uncle Rong's brows furrowed deeply, and he still didn't want to let go: "So, you'd rather exchange your own life for Xiao Jiu's life?" Have you forgotten that you have two more children? Do you want your two daughters to lose their parents and their fathers? ”

"I don't want to, but uncle, this is the fate of the Rong family, if I don't save Xiao Jiu, there will really be a backlash! In fact, it is better to interrupt the secret technique of the Rong family, so as not to be dragged down by the Rong family again. And the secret art of the emperor's family...... No one will ever meet again. ”

Rong Jing's attitude is resolute.

There are some things that he can't do as he wants.

For Xiao Jiu, for the sake of the children, and even for Xiao Qi, there are some things he must do.

Looking at the hesitant Uncle Rong, Rong Jing threw out a blockbuster*, "Uncle, think about why the emperor's family was beheaded all over the house back then." ”

"That's naturally because the emperor ......"

"What about the emperor's order? Could it be that the emperor is the kind of person who wants the king to die, but the minister has to die? ”

Uncle Rong's dim old eyes narrowed slightly: "What do you mean by this?" ”

The old man's hands behind his back slowly clenched into fists.

The whole person instantly tensed up and entered a state of vigilance.

"I know what you did to save your eldest brother back then." Rong Jing slowly spit out a sentence, and his eyes were even more tightly fixed on Uncle Rong, "Uncle, the emperor's family is all gone, leaving only this incense, and you are not without reason, now ......"

"Do you think that's what I thought about at the beginning? They threaten me with your big brother's life, I really can't help it...... Moreover, the emperor has already ordered that the forbidden army surround the emperor's family, even if I don't do it, the emperor's family will not be able to escape. ”

Uncle Rong looked pained, and the secret that had been hidden in his heart was like a small knife, grinding his heart all the time.

"So you took your eldest brother and hid in the emperor's secret room, and closed the secret room from the inside, so that the emperor's family outside the secret room was burned to ashes inch by inch?"

Uncle Rong slowly closed his eyes and stopped talking.

"Uncle, I know. I know that you are because of the eldest brother, because before the death of the eldest aunt, you promised the eldest aunt that no matter what, you will not sacrifice the eldest brother for the emperor's family. But...... In the past, the Rong family owes the emperor family after all, so don't stop me, okay? ”

Rong Jing knew the truth of everything, but he never blamed Uncle Rong.

Back then, the uncle was for the emperor's family, and he watched his wife being killed!

Therefore, it is understandable to make such a choice for the sake of his wife's promise before her death and for her son.

Moreover, in the end, the eldest brother died because of the emperor's family.

It's just that understanding is understanding, and everyone will have a different choice.

"You, like your eldest brother, I couldn't stop your eldest brother from going to death back then, and now, I can't stop you."

Uncle Rong's voice was sad to the bone.
