Chapter 40: Chang Le

Chung Yi Bo Fu.

Qi Yi stepped into the door in the afterglow of the stars and moon.

Uncle Zhongyi and his wife sat in the main hall, looking at Qi Yi with their eyebrows lowered and fixedly.

"Why did you come back so late?" Zhongyibo's eyes were heavy.

Qi Yi didn't expect that there were still people waiting for him in the mansion, and he was stunned for a moment before replying: "The road outside the city is blocked by stones, and I will help clear the road." ”

As if he didn't believe Qi Yi's statement, Zhongyibo asked: "You are the deputy commander of the Soldiers and Horses Division, and you still need to clear the road yourself?" ”

"It's very blocked, and cleaning it up as soon as possible is also for the sake of the saint."

"It's been so long since I've been back that you've come back." Before Mrs. Zhongyibo went down the mountain, she heard that the road was blocked, and waited until the news of the road to leave.

"At that time, only the road was cleared for horse-drawn carriages, and there were still many stones that had not been removed......

Zhongyibo waved his hand to interrupt Qi Yi's words, "Okay, you don't have to do this kind of thing yourself in the future." It's okay to inquire more about the recent war reports, and make some good connections to go to the border to fight. Don't blame us for being ruthless, if we choose you, you will have to take on the responsibility of the family. After all, you're the lucky one. ”

Qi Yi hung his head, "My son knows." ”

"Rest."

"Yes."

Qi Yi watched his parents leave, and then dragged his tired body back to his study. His parents had to ask about his every move, but he knew that it wasn't a concern.

He knew from an early age that he had no freedom and had to follow the path they had arranged.

The burden on his body weighed him down, and he collapsed on the Taishi's chair, looking up at the beams.

Immediately, he let out a long breath, took a piece of paper from a locked box in his study, and walked into the bedroom.

After the bedroom door was bolted from the inside, he lifted the bed board to reveal a passageway.

"Chang Le."

The man named Changle lived in a secret room, which was like a cage, surrounded by heavy stone walls, and only one wall had a five-finger-wide slit.

Hearing the familiar voice, Chang Le turned his head to look at Qi Yi while holding the slit, and asked with a smile, "Why did you come so late this time?" ”

"Someone fell off the cliff and helped find it."

As he spoke, Qi Yi took out a key.

Seeing this, Chang Le hurriedly stopped, "Don't go, she hasn't come to see me today, and it's hard to leave after a while." Did you find it? Can you still be rescued from falling off a cliff? ”

Qi Yi would come to talk to him from time to time about the outside world, and he would also listen to the story with relish.

Qi Yi felt that he was reasonable, and put the key on his waist again.

"Being found by her husband shouldn't be a big problem." He passed the paper he had brought through the crack, "This is what I wrote today, you can take a look." ”

Chang Le took it and looked at it, and after a while, he said aloud: "Your words have improved a lot, and you can't say that you can sell it at a good price." ”

Qi Yi smiled self-deprecatingly, "Good prices are useless, what they want is power." ”

Chang Le closed his mouth and looked at Qi Yi in a trance.

Suddenly, Qi Yi said seriously: "I'm about to join the army." ”

Chang Le was shocked, "Do they really want you to go to the battlefield?!" ”

"Hmm."

Chang Le slammed his fist against the wall, resentful, "They are still not people!" The battlefield is dangerous, and you can only be a soldier on the front line to fight, and if you fight, it's all fate! ”

Qi Yi pulled the corners of his mouth helplessly, "Who made me the lucky one." ”

Moreover, if they had the ability to make themselves generals in the barracks, they would not be so eager to make meritorious contributions themselves.

"Phew! Where is this kind of luck, it is simply a disaster! They are as sanctimonious as ever! Chang Le cracked it, revealing only the upper half of his face, which was enough to make Qi Yi feel his anger.

Qi Yi looked at the eyebrows and eyes that were exactly the same as his own, and comforted him in a gentle voice, "Chang Le, don't be angry, there is always someone to carry the burden of the family." If...... If I don't come back, they will let you see the light of day again. When the time comes, you don't follow my back path, do whatever you want, and I'll pay it back for you. ”

Chang Le's eyes were full of disbelief, "Brother! ”

"Listen to me! I haven't fought for anything for myself in my life, don't learn from my brother, my brother is a coward. "From the day he was chosen, he was destined to fight for the family, and he compromised.

He knew that his martial arts were not proficient, and the battlefield was changing rapidly, and it was unknown whether he could fight for a meritorious feat with his life.

Of course, it is best to be able to get ahead, and Chang Le will be better off in the future, and he doesn't have to follow his old path.

He couldn't resist, his parents gave him life, and he always had to repay his kindness.

But Chang Le is bitter enough, if he can see the light of day again, he hopes that Chang Le will be as happy as his name.

"Brother! I won't let you say that! Chang Lele held on to that crack to death, and the green tendons on the back of his hands burst out.

His eyes were bloodshot and his eyes were sour.

The bravest person in the entire Bofu is his brother, how can he be a coward!

"That's it! I guess my mother will ...... too" Qi Yi paused suddenly, he listened intently to the movement coming from the dark corridor, "It's already here, I'll go first." In the future, I will be busy with the affairs of joining the army, I'm afraid I can't come to see you, you can be fine. ”

As he spoke, Qi Yi left in the other direction.

"Brother!" Chang Le suppressed his voice, and his tone was pleading, "Don't go, okay?" ”

Qi Yi's eyes were red, "Perhaps, my life is big." ”

After speaking, he pushed open the secret door at the end of the corridor and disappeared from Chang Le's sight.

This secret door was secretly opened by Qi Yi himself, and no one knew that there was another way at the end of the road.

After Qi Yi disappeared, it didn't take long for Mrs. Zhongyibo to appear with a food box.

She skillfully took out the key to open the lock, and saw Chang Le sitting on the bed with his head down, not in high spirits.

"What's the matter, Chang Le, but the strange lady is late?" The voice was soft, which was completely different from the seriousness when facing Qi Yi.

She placed the food box on the table and laid out the delicate snacks inside.

Chang Le sorted out his emotions and raised a smile, "I thought my mother wouldn't come!" ”

"How could it be! Come and try it, it's all your favorite food. ”

"It can't be that person doesn't want it." Chang Le pretended to be displeased and kept a straight face.

"How is that possible! My mother doesn't even know what he likes to eat, how can it be his leftovers! Mrs. Zhongyi Bo still used to belittle Qi Yi to curry favor with Chang Le, and her words were all hinting that Chang Le was the most important thing in her heart.

She thought Changle would be happy, but Changle showed a disgusted expression where she couldn't see.

"Mother, it's too stuffy down here, when can I go out?"

"Chang Le, you wait. When your brother makes a career and earns a general, you can play the prestige of a general when you go out, right? ”

Chang Le looked contemptuous, "I don't know martial arts, and I won't be recognized when I go out?" ”

Mrs. Zhongyi Bo had no fear, "You two look exactly the same, the only difference is that others can't see it, what are you afraid of?" ”

"I don't care, I've stayed enough, I'm going out!" Chang Le sprinkled like a gentleman, but Mrs. Zhongyi Bo was not angry at all.

She patiently persuaded, "Your brother has had a lot of affairs recently, and you have to deal with affairs when you go out, how tiring you are." ”

Chang Le just made up his mind to go out to replace Qi Yi, and didn't want Qi Yi to become a victim of the family.

In the past, when he was glorious, he only cared about squandering his family property, bullying people everywhere, and he was at the end of his life when he was not favored by the royal family before he remembered to give his family a future.

said that it was for the sake of future generations, but in fact, he didn't want to bear the notoriety of leading the entire family to the end.

These people keep saying that they are for the honor of the family, but they only hide behind their backs and wait to enjoy the success.

Those concubines can justifiably not learn and do nothing, but his brother's brilliant talent is forced to switch to martial arts because the family cannot pave the way for him, and even risk his life to win the future of the entire family.

On the one hand, they dislike their brother for achieving nothing, and on the other hand, they are waiting for their brother to make a contribution, how ridiculous! How shameless!

And he, just because he didn't see the light of day since he was a child, he was able to get the favor of his biological mother, and his brother was suffering but his mother beat and scolded him for not working hard enough!

If it weren't for the brother's intelligence, the two would have known each other when they were young, and I am afraid that they would have been sowing discord by their biological mother, and the brothers would have turned against each other.

I was holding my breath in my heart, and there was boredom in the tone of the words I spoke.

"I've been locked up for years, and now I just want to go out and take a breath!"

Mrs. Zhongyi refused to let go, and Chang Le had to move out of the killer feature.

"Okay, okay, okay, okay? It's all your brother's fault, he hasn't made any achievements for so long. Mrs. Zhongyibo made no secret of her dislike for Qi Yi.

Chang Le didn't say a word about this, "As soon as possible, I'm in a hurry." ”

"Okay~ Eat some taro crisp first, your favorite food."

Chang Le twisted a piece and put it in his mouth.

Although Mrs. Zhongyibo promised with words, he had no bottom in his heart. After all, in the face of the family's future, they have reached the point of madness, and they will not allow themselves to go out at this time.

If he goes wrong, it won't end well.

Mrs. Zhongyibo came out of the secret passage with the food box, and she handed the food box to her personal maid.

"Send some snacks to the eldest young master tomorrow, and say something careless."

She took a long breath, Chang Le has been in a dark place for nineteen years, and he has indeed suffered, so he has to hurry up and let Qi Yi make achievements.

"Yes."

The next day, Qi Yi received a plate of taro crisp and received care from his mother from the maidservant.

He pretended to be moved to accept the snack, but called for a long attendant after the maidservant left.

"Take it and eat it."

Chang Sui was stunned when he saw the dim sum, and his eyebrows frowned, "Who, don't you know that the eldest young master can't eat taro?" ”

Qi Yi glanced at him, "Don't talk too much, just eat." ”

"Yes."

——

The county king's mansion, the wind was blowing at the foot of Jiang Qiao, and he buried his head in Fu Last's yard.

His hair was messy and his neckline was uneven, enough to show how rushed he was.

He grabbed a maidservant at the gate of the courtyard and asked angrily, "Where are you kings?" ”

The maid was at a loss, "The slave doesn't know." ”

Jiang Qiao pushed away the maidservant, walked into the courtyard, saw Liuyi guarding the door, and rushed straight over.

"Master Hou, please stay." Liuyi reached out to stop him.

"Ben Hou wants to see your county king!"

"Please come in." The voice of Fu Ying last came from the house, and Liu Yi put down his hand.

Jiang Qiao rushed in, grabbed Fu Yinglong's collar, and said in a low voice: "I obviously said that I would send Ah Huan away, why did you break your promise!" ”

Fu Ying Yan brushed Jiang Qiao's hand away, "Didn't you forget that Master Hou was promoted to the princess of the county on the second day of her soberness, and it was too late for this king to send it even if he wanted to." It's Master Hou, after so long to come to Xingshi to ask about the guilt, is it only then that he remembered that he still has a daughter? ”

Fu Last's ridicule made Jiang Qiao's face red, "You...... If you hadn't broken your promise, how could Ah Huan have been assassinated and fell off the cliff yesterday! ”

If Fu Ying last kept his promise, his Ah Huan would have been living freely in Jinzhou, where would it be as dire as it is now.

Fu Ying Yan sneered, "Is this the guts of Master Hou?" didn't go to find the murderer behind the scenes, but came to my county palace to make a big noise. ”

Jiang Qiao was serious, "Ben Hou believes that the emperor will find out the real culprit, but you, fulfill our promise as soon as possible and send Ah Huan away!" ”
