Zhao Wuji was slightly stunned, and then he was furious in his heart, and said with a very ugly face: "Zhao knows that Feng Ergou is the second son's person, but the second son is acting so partially, it will definitely make others dissatisfied, please consider it carefully." ”

"Others?" Xiao Zhengyang asked in an indifferent tone, "This other person is you Zao Wou-ki, right?"

Zhao Wuji was not afraid and said bluntly: "If the second son thinks like this, then Zhao has nothing to say." ”

Xiao Zhengyang smiled coldly and said, "It seems that you are determined to go against me, aren't you afraid of losing your head?"

Zhao Wuji looked at Xiao Zhengyang very seriously and said, "Zhao someone's life was given by the general, even if it is returned to the second son." But justice is in the hearts of the people, please think it out for yourself. ”

Xiao Zhengyang raised the white jade fan in his hand slightly, pointed at Zhao Wouji's chest and asked, "Are you really not afraid of death?"

Zao Wou-Ki didn't say anything, and simply pointed to the position of his heart.

Xiao Zhengyang knocked on Zao Wou-ki's chest with a fan, and said loudly: "Outsiders say that Zao Wou-Ki has a strong personality and iron bones, and he really saw it today." ”

After that, Xiao Zhengyang gave a fist salute to Zhao Wuji, and said very politely: "General Zhao's character, Xiao Zhengyang has learned it, but can you give me a face in this matter? Feng Ergou's news is indeed wrong, but he is not selfish, how about cutting off his arm?"

He is an important chess piece that I have planted here, if he dies, my plan will be ruined, please General Zhao to complete one or two. ”

After finishing speaking, Xiao Zhengyang wanted to give another salute again, but was stopped by Zao Wou-ki.

Zhao Wuji shook his head to signal that Xiao Zhengyang didn't need to be polite, and said in a deep voice: "If the second son only wants to make a corner, then it doesn't matter how he acts, but if the second son wants to achieve great things, he needs to think twice before doing things, and he must not chill the hearts of everyone in the mansion." ”

Xiao Zhengyang hummed lightly and said: "Feng Ergou's news is wrong, cut off his arm as a punishment, if I find out that he has selfish intentions in this matter, then General Lao Zhao will take action." ”

Zao Wou-ki's face softened slightly, and he reluctantly accepted Xiao Zhengyang's proposal.

After Xiao Zhengyang sat down again, Feng Yuan had already entered the house with a treasure chest.

After the treasure chest was opened, the golden light flashed, and I saw that in addition to a thick pile of silver tickets, there were several rare treasures in the box, and the bottom of the box was a treasure armor.

Xiao Zhengyang glanced at the box and asked Feng Yuan, "Do you have a knife at home?"

Feng Yuan immediately replied: "There are naturally knives in the mansion, but there are no treasure knives, just some sparse and ordinary weapons. ”

Xiao Zhengyang instructed lightly: "Go, get a knife, and bring good Jinchuang medicine." ”

Feng Yuan's face was bitter, he answered softly, turned around and walked out of the house.

When only Xiao Zhengyang and Zao Wou-Ki were left in the room, Xiao Zhengyang said: "General Zhao, do you have anything you like in the box? If there is, take it together, it will be regarded as the hard work of this trip." ”

Zao Wou-Ki did not refuse, stepped forward and took a few silver tickets, and said softly when the silver tickets were put into his arms: "Zao Wou-Ki thanked the son on behalf of Zhao." ”

Xiao Zhengyang was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted, the reason why Zhao Wouji took the silver ticket was all to settle Zhao Qi's posthumous affairs.

Zao Wou-Ki stood back in place, still looking neither happy nor sad, and said slowly: "I didn't agree with Zhao Cho just because of an old incident back then, and although there were quite a lot of disputes afterwards, it didn't affect the friendship between us.

His wife died young, and there was only one girl in the family who had not yet left the court, so how could I stand idly by? At least I had to give her a generous dowry, otherwise I would not be bullied by my in-laws in the future. ”

Zao Wou-Ki muttered in a low voice, not knowing whether he was muttering to himself or speaking to Xiao Zhengyang.

At this time, Feng Yuan, who went to get the knife, returned to the house.

Xiao Zhengyang looked at Feng Yuan, who was holding a knife, and said, "Since you have done something wrong, you have to pay the price, otherwise, I can't explain."

I won't punish you too much, as long as you have one arm, will you cut it yourself, or will you let General Zhao help you?"

Feng Yuan smiled reluctantly, and said with trembling shoulders: "The little one can't do this, so he will bother General Zhao." ”

Zhao Wuji glanced at Xiao Zhengyang, took a few steps forward, and took the knife in Feng Yuan's hand.

The knife flashed, and there was already an extra arm on the floor.

A scream followed.

Zhao Wouji didn't walk away, but took the things in Feng Yuan's hand, applied them with Jinchuang medicine, and bandaged them.

Thinking that Feng Yuan had explained when he took the knife, after the screams, the people of Feng's mansion did not rush into the room rashly.

After Zao Wou-Ki bandaged the wound, he walked away calmly, not thinking of looking at Feng Yuan again.

Feng Yuan hugged his broken arm and exhaled in pain for a while, and finally fainted.

Xiao Zhengyang took out a jade bottle from his arms, handed it to Zhao Wouji with a painful face, and motioned for the latter to feed medicine to Feng Yuan, who had already fainted.

Zhao Wuji was stunned for a moment, and asked softly, "Childe, this is a healing pill worth a thousand gold, do you really want to give it to him?"

Xiao Zhengyang gritted his teeth and said, "Give it to him, there is just the last one left." ”

Zhao Wuji hesitated for a moment, but finally broke Feng Yuan's mouth open and poured the elixir from the jade bottle into the latter's mouth.

After a while, Feng Yuan's eyelids blinked a few times and slowly woke up.

Needless to say, Feng Yuan himself could feel a scorching air flow in his body, and he knew that he was fed pills when he was unconscious.

He struggled to kneel down, kowtowed to Xiao Zhengyang and said, "Thank you, son, thank you." ”

Xiao Zhengyang helped Feng Yuan up, and said earnestly: "It's a pass, it's a merit, I hope you can work diligently in the future, don't let me down again." ”

Feng Yuan hissed and shouted: "The villain must have done his best to die, and today's incident will never happen again." ”

In the ensuing time, the three of them chatted about some details, revised the original plan, and reformulated some plans.

......

Ji family mansion.

When Ji Furong woke up from her coma, she found that her sky had fallen, her father had died in her courtyard, and she knew nothing, and the fuse of all this was herself.

Ji Furong, who was dressed in filial piety, was both sad and self-blaming, she felt that her father's death was inseparable from herself, so after she knelt in the mourning hall, she never got up again.

Mrs. Ji looked at her daughter with a blank expression, grief-stricken but didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only talk to her daughter about the great times of her father's life.

"Furong, your father is the most talented heir of our family, even if he is dying, he still touched the threshold of the fairyland, and at the last moment of his life, with only a sword 'no regrets', he killed the foreigner who was like a rainbow. ”

“......”

"Furong, don't scare your mother, your mother is left with you, if you have any three long and two short, how can I explain to your father..."

Xu was annoyed by Mrs. Ji's chatter, Ji Furong frowned, and said softly: "Don't say it, I'm fine, I just want to keep a quiet watch for my father, if you are tired, go and rest for a while, anyway, relatives and friends haven't come here yet, I can withstand it alone." ”

Mrs. Ji was choked by her daughter, so she stopped chattering, began to take the yellow paper in front of her seriously, and kept sending it to the brazier.

After a while, Ji Furong suddenly asked, "Didn't the third uncle come back?"

Mrs. Ji shook her head and asked rhetorically: "Does Furong want your third uncle to come back? Isn't this the time for you to take over the Ji family and show your strength? Why do you think your third uncle will come back?"

Mrs. Ji's voice was very soft, but when she said these words at this moment, she couldn't help but feel cold.

Ji Furong smiled coldly and said, "Whether I take over the Ji family or the third uncle takes over, it has nothing to do with you, you just need to live your widowhood." ”

Mrs. Ji had just picked up a pile of yellow paper, and had not yet handed it into the brazier, when she heard her daughter speak like this, the hand holding the yellow paper trembled slightly, and the yellow paper in her hand fell down, setting off bursts of flames and green smoke.

She stretched out her slightly trembling hand and wanted to pull her daughter's sleeve, but was slapped away by Ji Furong.

She didn't care about her daughter's rude behavior at all, and said softly: "If you find it difficult to control the overall situation, you might as well marry the eldest disciple of the Hundred Feet Building, which can stabilize the prestige of the Ji family in the local area, and also create some momentum for you to take charge of the family." ”

Ji Furong smiled coldly and said, "In the final analysis, it's still a matter of begging." ”

Mrs. Ji sighed softly and muttered in a low voice: "People live for a lifetime, ask for the parents and teachers of the kings of heaven and earth, which is not a request for people." Instead of begging outsiders, it is better to beg for your future husband. ”

Ji Furong said expressionlessly: "I won't ask for help, Cheng, I and the Ji family are prosperous and prosperous, and defeat is just an extra corpse under the yellow earth." If my mother is reluctant to this prosperous world, just stay by herself, I have nothing to say. ”

Mrs. Ji smiled silently and said, "When you were young, your father often said that you were born in the wrong child, and you are a daughter, but you have a heroic meaning that a man is not as good as a man.

It's a pity that you are a female Jiao'e, if you are a man, why do you have to work so hard like now, in the final analysis, this is still a man's world, and women are just a reflection of it. ”

Ji Furong was stunned, and her eyes were full of remembrance.

At that time, I was still young, my father and mother were very affectionate, I followed my father to study and practice martial arts every day, and followed my mother to learn female red embroidery.

But when did it start to fade away?

I guess this is the first time I've heard that rumor.

It was a sunny afternoon, passing through the garden, and I overheard the small talk of the people in the house, and caught some words.

So he went to ask his father for verification, and the final result was that his father, who had never moved a finger of himself, slapped himself and asked him never to mention those rumors again, and in the following time, the two subordinates in the house also disappeared without a trace.

Since then, Ji Furong has had an extra thorn in her heart.

Since then, she has become increasingly estranged from her mother.

It wasn't until Ji Furong reached the age of Ji Lu that she slowly understood the affairs of men and women, and she became more and more interested in the rumor of the year, vowing to understand it.

Needless to say, Ji Furong learned about the ugly past after many verifications.

Since then, Ji Furong has never said a word to Mrs. Ji again.

Today is the first time in three years that the two have exchanged and talked.
