In order to leave time for his wife and children to talk to, Shi Junhe returned to the study alone after accepting the ceremony.

When he saw Shi Qingxue pulling Wen Renchi to push the door in, Shi Junhe's eyes fell on the place where the two touched, his eyes widened for a moment, and he asked dissatisfiedly: "What are you doing here?" ”

Shi Qingxue was yelled at confused, "What's wrong?" ”

Wen Renchi understood first, quietly withdrew the hand held by Qingxue, and took a step back, "It's nothing." ”

"Nothing." Shi Junhe also realized that he had overreacted, and then said.

"Really?" Shi Qingxue's suspicious gaze wandered around the two men, but she didn't delve further.

She pushed Wen Renchi forward, and then bluntly repeated the conversation she had just had with Wen Renchi, without concealment, without even superfluous rhetoric.

Then, she asked Shi Junhe: "Daddy, what the hell is going on?" You've actually guessed about this kind of thing, right? ”

It is said that knowing a son is not as good as a father, but how could Shi Qingxue not find out that Shi Junhe was abnormal after returning from Qingluo Mountain, he obviously called someone to Fancheng for help, but in the end the matter was resolved, but he did not send anyone to report the news, this is definitely not something that Shi Junhe can do, unless Shi Junhe guessed from the beginning that the distress letter was not delivered to the other party.

Shi Junhe didn't deny it, just looked at Wen Renchi and frowned, "You told Qingxue?" ”

Wen Renchi nodded, but did not explain the fact that he couldn't lie when he faced Shi Qingxue, which embarrassed him.

Shi Junhe didn't ask, but turned his head to look at Shi Qingxue, and said lightly: "This matter has nothing to do with you, you don't care." ”

The answer was exactly the same as Wen Ren's, and he almost didn't make Shi Qingxue mad.

She snorted coldly and pointed at Shi Junhe angrily, "You, my father." ”

Fingers pointed at Wen Ren again, "You, my big brother." ”

Taking a deep breath, "You've all gotten to the point where you're dead, and you still dare to tell me that it has nothing to do with me?" Do you really have to wait until I lose any of you, or even both, before it has anything to do with me! ”

Saying that, in her previous life, the nightmare of Shi Junhe and Wenren dying in Qingluo Mountain attacked her reason again, and she couldn't hold back, and the tears the size of beans went down without money.

Qingxue didn't want to be seen as weak, and as soon as the tears fell, she rudely wiped them away, only staring at a pair of big round eyes, full of grievances.

Wen Renchi was even more distressed, and hurriedly took Qingxue's hand, carefully wiped the tears on her face, and coaxed softly: "You can say whatever you want, I didn't come here with you, I must solve all the misunderstandings, right?" Don't cry. ”

Even if the word 'misunderstanding' seems to him to be just a delusion, as long as he can coax Shi Qingxue, he doesn't mind keeping such extravagant hopes.

Shi Qingxue immediately stopped crying, and turned to look at Shi Junhe, who also raised his hand and begged for mercy, saying, "Okay, okay!" Whatever you want to know, Daddy will tell you. ”

She was satisfied, snorted, and whispered: "I don't believe that Daddy will deliberately harm Uncle Wenren, so what happened in the war before Shi Liuniang?" ”

The War of the Three Kingdoms sixteen years ago was a heroic war story for Shi Qingxue, but in Shi Junhe's eyes, it was a nightmare in his life.

The expression on Shi Junhe's face retreated, and he stalemate for a while before he sighed and spoke: "Mo Guo has just overthrown the tyrannical government of the previous dynasty for more than 20 years, and the country is in turmoil, and he is recuperating, but the Liang State has coveted a large area of rich land in our country for a long time, and harassed our border in the name of attacking Zhao State. The first emperor knew the truth of the cold lips and teeth, and ordered the Shi family army to go to the border of the Three Kingdoms to resist the Liang State together with the Zhao State.

At that time, my father was sick and did not go on the expedition, so Abo and I led the troops to the border. Two to one, it was smooth at first, but after Liang Guo realized his weakness, he gave up Zhao Guo and turned to plunder the people on the border of our country, and Zhao Guo thought that he was safe, so he began to be passive against the enemy.

Once, the Shijia army led by Ah Bo and I was attacked by the Liang Kingdom, and the men and horses were scattered, and the team we led was less than a thousand people left, so we had to occupy an abandoned town to barely resist the enemy, and seek a breakthrough. But the enemy army is coming at us, and has been trapping us to death, and if there are no reinforcements, we will end up trapped alive.

So after more than half a month, I discussed with Abo that one person would stay and defend to the death, and the other person would lead a small team of people to break through the siege and look for reinforcements, in order to seek a chance of survival......"

Shi Qingxue listened attentively to the story, and when she saw that Shi Junhe suddenly stopped and didn't speak, she began to be anxious again, "Daddy, why don't you say it?" How do you arrange it? Who will move the rescuers, and who will stay to defend the city? ”

Shi Junhe glanced at Wen Renzhi and asked with a wry smile: "Guess what?" ”

"Huh?" Do you still have a guessing puzzle?

Shi Qingxue frowned, seeing that Shi Jun and Zhen were waiting for her answer, she had to turn her brain to think.

After a while, he hesitated and said, "Daddy, have you stayed to guard the city?" ”

The two men who heard this raised their eyebrows in surprise.

Shi Junhe was silent for a moment, and asked suspiciously, "How did you guess?" ”

Qingxue smiled and explained triumphantly: "Because on the surface, it seems that it is dangerous to stay and defend or to lead people to break through, but it is not broken or standing, as long as you can escape, there is a glimmer of life, it is better to break through...... So Daddy, you're definitely going to choose the more dangerous and difficult option. ”

Shi Junhe looked at Shi Qingxue's trusting and adoring eyes, and the heaviness in his heart disappeared a lot, and even the obvious distrust of Shangwen was not as uncomfortable as before, he only nodded calmly, "That's right, because most people have to stay and wait for death, if no one stays to stabilize people's hearts, even if it is the Shi family army, they can't wait for rescue, so I ordered Abo fifty elite soldiers to let him break through, and I stayed with the soldiers to continue to defend the wall." ”

"Really?" Wen Renchi couldn't help but sneer, "Then why did the story come out turned out to be that your rescue was not timely, and my father was trapped alive?" ”

Oh, this seems to be a bit different from the version of the story that has been circulated.

Shi Qingxue turned her gaze to her father, waiting for his explanation.

Shi Junhe turned his face away to look out the window, and said helplessly for a long time: "I'm not lying, I just don't know what went wrong, the soldiers of Liangguo, who were supposed to stay to encircle and suppress the main force of the Shi family's army, actually dispatched most of their troops to chase down Abo's team." Seeing this, I didn't want to sit still, and I happened to encounter another Zhao army that was also only left with remnants of the defeated generals, so the two sides worked together to annihilate the Liang army and successfully broke through the encirclement......"

Wen Ren's blazing gaze suddenly became extremely sharp, and he coldly planned Shi Junhe's words, "But you didn't go to rescue my father immediately, and deliberately delayed the time to give the Liang army an opportunity to take advantage of, causing my father to be killed by the main force of the Liang army!" ”

Shi Junhe: "......" He opened his mouth, as if he couldn't think of what he could say?

It is a fact that Wen Renbo died in battle, and it is also a fact that he did not rescue in time, as for what those subjective factors are, it is just the opinion of the benevolent and the wise.

"Big brother!" Shi Qingxue saw that the person was about to run away again, so she hurriedly pulled the person and changed the topic. "You didn't say that you have evidence to prove your guess, what kind of evidence is it, take it out and we'll take a look together, okay?"

On the one hand, Wen Renchi felt that the matter had been investigated clearly enough, and there was no need to explain it again, and on the other hand, he couldn't bear to make Qingxue unhappy, so he had to take out the letter that Mo Shujun wrote to Shi Junhe.

Spread out and set it in front of the other two.

The letterhead is addressed to Shi Junhe, and the handwriting is familiar to both of them, and it is Mo Shujun's.

[My son, the Shi family army was founded by your father, and your father personally handed over this army to you, I don't want you to carry forward the Shi family army, at least you can't change your name and surname. Now there are several main generals in the army who were not brought out by your father, and Wen Renbo is even equal to you in the army, which is not conducive to the stability of the Shi family army. I hope that Wu'er can carefully consider this issue and make a decision. 】

After reading the content of the letter, Shi Junhe and Shi Qingxue's faces changed, especially Shi Junhe, he never thought that there would be such a play more than ten years ago.

He eagerly explained to Shangwenren's indifferent gaze: "I have never seen this letter. ”

"I believe it." After Wen Renchi took out the letter, he kept staring at Shi Junhe, and the other party's shock and confusion could not be faked.

But he didn't believe that Shi Junhe was innocent, "But can you deny that this letter was not given to you by Mo Shujun?" ”

Shi Junhe pale and didn't speak, but Shi Qingxue didn't deceive herself, and said firmly: "This is definitely her handwriting, I won't admit it!" ”

"Qingxue!" Shi Jun and Gao shouted, but he also knew that such a call would only show his powerlessness.

Shi Qingxue ignored him, and asked Wen Renchi instead: "Even if my grandmother intended to harm Uncle Wenren, but she was far away in Kyoto at that time, and my father didn't see this letter, it was impossible to do what she said, everything was just a coincidence." ”

Wen Renchi: "Coincidence? I also hoped it was just a coincidence, but...... Qingxue, do you know where you got this letter from? ”

Shi Qingxue blinked suspiciously.

"It was obtained by the people of the Third Highness from He Jun, the steward of the Shi Mansion, by chance."

At that time, He Jun was not exactly the housekeeper of the Shi family, his identity in the army was Shi Lei's personal guard, and after the war began, Shi Lei was not worried about his son, so he arranged He Jun to protect him by Shi Junhe's side.

"Impossible." Shi Jun and Tie Qing denied it repeatedly.

Wen Renchi just looked at him fixedly, and did not argue. Or that there is no point in arguing.

The two were again at an impasse.

"Wait." Shi Qingxue interrupted the confrontation between the two, turned to look at Shi Junhe, and asked, "Daddy, the story you told us just now is not finished!" Keep talking! ”

Shi Junhe looked at Qingxue inexplicably, and couldn't figure out what she was still doing when she was still struggling with what happened back then.

Shi Qingxue continued: "Since you don't want to say it, why don't you let me guess?" I guess my father planned to support Uncle Wenren after he joined forces with Zhao Guo's army, but the people of Zhao Guo didn't allow it, didn't they? ”

Shi Junhe didn't speak, but his surprised expression was already saying: She was right.

Wen Renchi was also surprised: "Why? How the hell is this going on? ”

Obviously, he was sure that he had the truth, but Shi Qingxue's words always made him feel that there was something wrong, and he couldn't even blame Shi Junhe with peace of mind, so what was going on back then?
