"It's been six years since the last time I said goodbye, but I never thought that the immortals would still be like this, and their faces would not change." Huo Quzhi said with emotion.

In the past six years, Huo Quzhi has grown from a small bean to a fierce man.

As soon as he turned eighteen this year, he was named General Yao and went out with Wei Qing.

And Wei Qing obviously believed in his nephew's ability level, so he directly gave him a thousand light cavalry and let him play it.

"I haven't seen each other in six years?" Qin Tian was stunned, watching the young man in the past grow into a general now, and he also felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

At this time, Huo Quzhi's slightly young face was full of perseverance, and his energetic face was full of desire for victory and hope for honor.

But in comparison, Wei Qing's state at this time is not very good.

"Don't be rude when you get sick." Wei Qing scolded, his voice revealing a sense of exhaustion.

Qin Tian looked carefully, but found that Wei Qing's body was already dead and weak.

This kind of weakness is not a physical weakness, even now Wei Qing can still walk, run, jump, and even go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.

But Qin Tian looked at his soul and did find that he was already dead.

Being in this state for a long time is obviously not good news, and you will either die early or go completely crazy.

Qin Tian's brows furrowed slightly.

He didn't know what had happened in the past six years to make a high-spirited general what he was now.

Glancing at Huo Quzhi, Qin Tian found that Huo Qubing didn't seem to notice the abnormality on Wei Qing's body.

I haven't seen each other for a long time, but when Qin Tian sent out an invitation, Wei Qing immediately agreed.

Wei Qing didn't bring anyone, even Huo Qubing didn't let him follow, but left alone with him and Qin Tian.

"I don't have enough complexion to watch General Wei, in recent years, I must have been haunted by things?"

Wei Qing was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile: "The immortal is really like watching the fire, and at a glance, you can see that Wei is depressed in his heart." ”

He sighed, and he had a lot of things on his mind that he wanted to tell, but he didn't know where to start.

After thinking about it for a long time, Wei Qing finally decided to start with six years ago.

Although Wei Qing has outstanding military achievements and respectful status, he does not use his power to build the party and does not interfere in government affairs.

The most important thing is that he is diligent and compassionate, and he is quite popular.

Six years ago, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty came to his senses and did not indulge in immortal arts anymore, but began to worry about state affairs.

With the strong support of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the conquest of the Xiongnu at the border pass became easier.

In this process, the highest and greatest prestige is naturally Wei Qing.

He made great achievements, but he never formed a party for personal gain, and he was loyal to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

But there are also problems.

You say you're loyal, who can prove it?

Wei Qing is a general, but he is not ignorant of politics.

It is precisely because he knows that his military exploits are too dazzling, so he never forms a party in the court, but only a lonely minister.

He did a good job of this, and even won the high trust of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty for a time.

But the problem is that Emperor Wu of Han believes in him, which does not mean that Emperor Wu of Han will also believe in the people of the Wei family.

Moreover, Wei Qing's exploits were so dazzling that the Wei family members who relied on the shelter under his wings didn't seem to realize how they could have the status they have today.

Wei Qing is not worried about his life and death, he knows that as long as he is not involved in the messy incident, there will definitely be no danger to his life.

Even if he is inadvertently involved, as long as he does not participate in the major event of rebellion, at most he will be robbed of military power and return home.

After all, he has military exploits.

But the family members behind him, the entire Wei family, don't have these things to protect them.

In case someone can't figure out their heads and stands on the wrong team, I'm afraid that the entire Wei family will be at risk of extinction!

The higher you stand, the harder you fall down, this is an eternal truth!

And what worries Wei Qing the most is Huo Qu's illness!

I didn't think it before, but as Huo Quzhi got older and older, Wei Qing also found that this child was a little too arrogant.

That's right, Wei Qing's evaluation of Huo Qubing is only arrogant.

He does not deny Huo Quzhi's talent in military affairs, but he is too stupid in politics.

In the early years, Huo Qubing could still study with an open mind, but when Qin Tian left, Huo Qubing was very loved by Liu Che in the palace.

There may be a personal emotional factor in this, but I think there is also a part of Qin Tian's relationship.

After all, Huo Qubing was recognized by the immortals when he was a child, so Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty naturally trusted Huo Qubing very much.

Huo Qubing also lived up to the trust of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, whether it was his daily words and deeds, or the attitude he showed after commanding the army, all of them proved his loyalty to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty!

This made Emperor Wu of Han very satisfied.

And this expedition, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty personally set up 800 light brave cavalry for Huo Quzhi, hoping that he would be able to make contributions!

These 800 light brave horsemen are the elite of the elite, don't say it's a genius like Huo Quai, even if it's a mediocre talent, as long as he obeys the order, he will definitely make a contribution.

This made Wei Qing even more worried.

Once he has made great contributions, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty will reward Huo Quai's title again, what kind of pride he will become, even Wei Qing himself does not know!

In order to ensure the safety of the two, the greater the credit that Huo Quzhi has made, the more he has to stay estranged from Huo Quzhi.

The most important thing is that Wei Qing really knows his nephew too well.

It was impossible for him to understand what he meant by doing this, and Wei Qing couldn't tell Huo Quzhi clearly.

Because he knew that once he said it clearly, this stunned young man would definitely go directly to His Majesty and say it to prove that the two of them had no two hearts.

Then the calf will be called!

Huo Quzhi is definitely a good boy, he is loyal to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and he has absolutely nothing to say to his uncle.

If he took the initiative to alienate Huo Quzhi, Huo Qubing would definitely try his best to repair the relationship with him, and maybe he would go to Emperor Wu of Han for help.

But how can this kind of thing be solved by talking?

The better the relationship between him and Huo Quzhi, the more Liu Che will be restless!

Only when he keeps a distance from Huo Quzhi, or even has a conflict, can Liu Che feel at ease and let Huo Qubing continue to make contributions.

Otherwise, under the suspicion of the emperor, there is only one end for them in the end - death and annihilation!

This is also what Wei Qing is most worried about, Huo Quzhi, a stunned young man, is too favored, everything he has experienced is unique.

This kind of experience made him not think about these political things at all, which would eventually make Huo Qubing slowly perish.

"Really?" Qin Tian shook his head undeniably.

"General Wei has said so much, but it still doesn't seem to have touched on your own problems."

"My own problem?" Wei Qing was stunned for a moment: "What can I have a problem?" ”

Qin Tian sighed lightly.

Wei Qing talked for a long time, but he didn't notice it at all, and his words had vaguely revealed an extremely serious tendency to self-destruct.

Whether it is to protect the family, or to protect Huo Quai, if you want to do this, there must be a premise, that is, he Wei Qing will not pose any threat to Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty!

How to make a person non-threatening? Only the dead do not pose any threat!

Although he was just talking about the Wei family and Huo Qu's illness, Wei Qing had already vaguely revealed that he was eager to get sick and would never lead the troops again.

But the big man needs him, and he can't give up, and the two contradictions have created his painful heart now.

And the long-term battlefield battle also gave Wei Qing a certain degree of stress disorder.

Wei Qing has been in the army for more than eight years, from a small captain at the beginning to a general who is now in command of the three armies, it stands to reason that he should have long been accustomed to killing.

But the problem is that Wei Qing is an extremely good general, but he is not just a general!

If Huo Qu's illness is replaced in Wei Qing's position, he will definitely not do worse than Wei Qing!

But Wei Qing is delicate, which can be seen from the fact that he was able to consider the possibility of the future early.

And this kind of person is either indifferent and ruthless, regards everything as a pig and dog, or has a rich sense of compassion and can deeply experience the tragedy of the world!

Wei Qing is obviously the latter, and he can find too much human touch in his life and habits.

It's just that his duties as a general made him suppress this emotion.

But with the passage of time, the intensity of the war has continued to strengthen, the growth of Huo Qu's disease, the life and death of the Huo family of the Wei family, and the tragedy of the war......

These things are like mountains, pressing on Wei Qing's heart, tormenting his mind day and night.

"Immortal...... What does this mean? ”

Wei Qing seemed puzzled.

Qin Tian didn't explain, he stretched out his hand and lightly, and Wei Qing's whole person took a few steps back.

"Immortal ......"

Before the words fell, Wei Qing was shocked to find that his body was in front of him.

Looking down, his body turned translucent.

"This ...... What does this mean? Is it that I'm already dead? ”

Wei Qing, who had become a soul state, only felt that he was relaxed and free from the shackles of his body, as if everything was open to him.

The feeling of warmth in her mother's arms made Wei Qing feel very relaxed.

This is a situation experienced by anyone who is a first-time fugue.

If you don't wake up in time, your soul will be thousands of miles away, losing the practice of your body, and you will never be able to return to your body.

However, Qin Tian obviously wouldn't let this happen.

"Look inside yourself." Qin Tian sighed lightly, stretched out his hand, and Wei Qing's soul was sucked into his body!

Wei Qing only felt that everything in front of him had become illusory, and countless colors that he had never understood and had never seen appeared in front of him again and again.

Even he himself seems to be distorted with these colors.

A glow appeared, and Wei Qing subconsciously flew towards the colorful glow, as if that was his destination.

In the eyes of the outside world, it was only a short quarter of an hour, but all the experiences of Wei Qing in the past few decades, he had already reviewed them just now.

Even the memories he thought he had completely forgotten were clear in his mind.

It was as if he was living his life all over again.

From the perspective of a bystander.

After watching his life again, Wei Qing seems to have more insights.

"How? How do you feel? ”

Qin Tian looked at Wei Qing, who had woken up, and asked softly.

Wei Qing stood in place and was stunned for a long time.

"Original...... Is that so? ”

re-examined his life, Wei Qing did not get better, but seemed to have gotten worse.

Because he found that he had killed too much over the years, and the national strength was seriously depleted, and the people were not able to make a living.

Wei Qing had no doubt that the purpose of the war was nothing more than to pacify the border passes and create a quiet and peaceful life for the people.

But now? The war has been fought for so long, the national strength has been seriously spent, and the people of both countries are in deep suffering, and their lives are getting worse and worse.

Wei Qing began to doubt the meaning of war, even if such a war is won, can it really bring a quiet and peaceful life to the people?

And, is it necessary to have such a hatred that lasts for thousands of years?

Thousands of years later, how will future generations evaluate his performance in war?

What is he Wei Qing, an executioner? Or a hero? Or is it a general with a mixed reputation?

Re-examining himself, Wei Qing seemed to have strengthened his determination.

When the war was over, he was sick at home.

In his capacity, "death" is undoubtedly the best end.

Qin Tian sighed slightly.

Riddled with life, Wei Qing was so deeply affected that he actually went to the depths of his soul.

If the influence of death is not completely eradicated, I am afraid that when the war is over, Wei Qing will really end his life by self-determination.

But correspondingly, before the end of the war, he was still the same calm and invincible general!

Wei Qing had too many killings, although he hadn't lost himself, but too many killings and too much dead air made him begin to doubt the meaning of his existence.

In later generations, this can probably be explained as a stress disorder for battlefield veterans.

Even if the war is over, Wei Qing can no longer live as a normal person.

He is a good person, so he will not hurt others, but will end this pain by hurting himself.

Only the weak will alleviate their own pain by venting their pain on the weaker.

And people like Wei Qing will choose to end this never-ending pain by hurting themselves, or even ending their own lives!

Qin Tian felt sorry for Wei Qing.

Every character in the history books has his own emotions and six desires in reality, and has his own joys, sorrows, and sorrows.

They also have their own shortcomings.

The famous general in history may also be a prodigal son who likes beauty and dissoluteness in private.

Some faint gentlemen, in private, may be single-minded and loyal to a certain concubine.

Everyone is complex and multifaceted, and Qin Tian was not surprised by the weakness and pain that Wei Qing showed.

This is very normal, and traditional culture requires that men must not have any weak emotions, otherwise they will be looked down upon.

But it is clear that this is completely impossible.

Qin Tian didn't have any other opinion about Wei Qing because of this kind of thing.

On the contrary, it was only at this time that Wei Qing gradually became real in his eyes and became flesh and blood.
