nine words

Shen Huafeng took all of Chu Jiuge's advice into his heart. After he left, everyone settled their dinner hastily and fell asleep with their own concerns.

The next day, Pang Sanniang came to visit and brought some objects that Chu Jiuge had used in the old days, hoping that Chu Jiuge could recall something.

"Jade flute, pipa, fox fur, chessboard, it seems that Mr. Jiu Ge is really a talented man. You are as witty as you, Pang Sanniang, can you show us the way?" Yu Jingnian filled the teacup in front of Pang Sanniang without any hesitation conceal his intentions.

He is a military commander, he has his own guts to the end, and he doesn't intend to beat around the bush. After all, he is caught in a puzzle, and his actions are under the control of others. He has no way of knowing who can believe it, so he simply let it go. himself.

Pang Sanniang sighed, took the cup of hot tea, sipped it lightly, and sighed again. "How can I show you the way? The me now is no different from the me 20 years ago. I still can't save Mr. Jiuge, and I can't do anything about it..."

"But you must know where Master Xiang is."

Pang Sanniang trembled all over when she heard the words, she did not conceal her shock at all, and even slipped the teacup to the ground by mistake.Pang Sanniang hurriedly reached out to pick up the pieces of porcelain, but was interrupted by Xue Wuhua's hand.

"Sanniang doesn't have to be like this, how can I let you do such rough work?"

"Master Xiang is dead, what else are you going to do?"

"Chu Jiuge died back then, but now he is living well in front of us. We should ask you this. What are you going to do?" Yu Jingnian's expression changed suddenly, his eyes were sharp, and he stared at Pang Sanniang, as if wanting her to swallow her alive generally.

Although Pang Sanniang is extremely smart, she is still a woman. When she met Yu Jingnian and Xue Wuhua, who were military generals but were unfortunately exterminated, she was also afraid that she would be tortured and killed if she was not careful.

When national justice and personal interests are mutually exclusive, most people will choose the former, but when important secrets and personal interests are mutually exclusive, a few people will choose the latter.

Pang Sanniang was no exception. Although she was afraid that the secret of Xiangye would be discovered, in the final analysis, she still had selfish intentions. Compared with the living, what is more important than the dead?

"I have nothing to say...but I can tell you that Chang Lingge is my son..."

As soon as these words came out, all four were shocked.

Even Nan Jun Xisui and Shen Huafeng who came to visit by chance were taken aback.

This is also in the middle of Pang Sanniang's strategy. She revealed such a shocking secret just to divert everyone's attention.

"San Niang, do you know the consequences of the crime of deceiving the emperor?" Zi Sui asked with a smile, stepped into the threshold with his hands behind his back, gently lifted the hem of his clothes, and sat down at the table.

Shen Huafeng nodded towards Yu Jingnian, indicating that he is currently in a gentle personality, so don't worry too much.

"I don't need to know the consequences, because I didn't deceive the emperor." Pang Sanniang is also a woman of the wind and cloud, and she is not chaotic in times of crisis. "Chang Lingge is indeed my son, but I can't control him. As early as 20 years ago, he severed ties with me."

He gently tapped the table with his fingers, "But Gu remembers that Chang Lingge left Nanguo at the same time as Mr. Jiuge. Although Gu never suspected you or investigated you, you only said Chang Lingge today. The fact that Ling Ge is your son will inevitably disappoint Gu too much."

"My daughter is guilty, and she didn't intend to deceive the king." Pang Sanniang immediately stood up, knelt down on the ground, begging for forgiveness, and couldn't help but burst into tears. "But Ling Ge, I don't know where he is going, and I dare not tell the king. My daughter has selfish intentions, because he is my son..."

Xun Sui didn't want to embarrass Pang Sanniang too much, thinking about her contribution to the Southern Kingdom in the past, and serving him loyally for many years, Xun Sui waved his hand and ordered Pang Sanniang to die. "Capital crimes can be avoided, but living crimes cannot be escaped. Sanniang, you should go face the wall for three months."

As a result, Pang Sanniang, the last straw, was also quarantined, and Yu Jingnian really felt a little helpless.Fortunately, Xie Sui's current attitude is fairly peaceful, otherwise it would be even more difficult.

"How is Xiao Jiu?" Xie Sui asked, and Yu Jingnian replied:

"On the fourth day, I am gradually recovering, and my fingertips can already move."

Zi Sui got up, looked down at Yu Jingnian and Xue Wuhua, and said calmly: "Hua Feng, you stay and take care of Xiao Jiu and Gong Ziyu, you two will enter the palace alone."

Yu Jingnian and Xue Wuhua were still thinking in their hearts, why did they have to meet them if they didn't bring Chu Jiuge into the palace?There is something to say for sure, but what to say?

Yu Jingnian really couldn't think of the purpose of summoning them, but now that they were in such a helpless state, they could only bite the bullet.

"There are four armies under Gu's command. Those who are in charge of supplementing the rear army's salary are in charge of Huafeng. Gu personally leads the first army in charge of the attack. As for the left and right wings, Gu intends to hand them over to you." Xie Sui walked down the street with a relaxed expression, With his hands behind his back, he strode forward, and the patrolling army on the road would kneel down to him, but he just laughed it off.

"How can you trust us so much?" Xue Wuhua asked, "We are enemies, why do you think we won't turn against you? Just because Gong Ziyin is in your hands?"

Xi Sui laughed, but did not answer the question directly. "Look, Lin'an, the capital of the southern kingdom, is so prosperous. This is a grand scene that was not there when my father was in power. I killed my father alone to win the throne, but lost the hearts of the people. In the eyes of ordinary people, the gains outweigh the losses, but Gu has The ambition of turning the royal capital into the imperial capital has indeed been put into practice, and once again won the hearts of the people with strength."

"What do you want to explain by saying this?"

Xie Sui was still striding forward, without tilting his head, he said softly: "Wei Guo, your King Wei handed over to Gu."

Yu Jingnian and Xue Wuhua glanced at each other quickly, and then laughed out loud. This kind of joke is really...not funny at all.

Hearing the embarrassment of the two of them laughing, Xi Sui didn't mock them, but just entered the palace gate silently, pointed to the northwest direction, "Young Ziyin is in Beige, you can go find him."

Before the words were finished, only the back was left, and Yu Jingnian and Xue Wuhua were left looking at each other.

Following the guidance of the palace servants, the two found the North Pavilion with difficulty. Before entering the courtyard, they heard a burst of lovable children's laughter, and the two were puzzled again.When I got closer, I saw a half-grown child holding a ball and throwing himself into the arms of the man in white.

And that man, they are all familiar with it.

The voice of the Duke of Wei.

Yu Jingnian and Xue Wuhua watched the scene outside the courtyard gate for a long time, but they didn't dare to believe it, and they didn't even dare to go forward to confirm it.

Gong Ziyin felt that it was getting late, picked up the child, and wanted to go back to the room to rest, but happened to see the two people outside the door, and painful memories suddenly emerged, almost causing him to lose the child by mistake.

"Jingnian...Wuhua..."

Seeing this situation, Yu Jingnian and Xue Wuhua glanced at each other, and immediately strode forward to check on Gong Ziyin's condition. Xue Wuhua wanted to take the child in Gong Ziyin's arms, but unexpectedly the child burst into tears. He also seemed a little at a loss, and immediately shook his body, coaxing the child to calm down.

"Son..."

Gong Ziyin forced a smile, "The capital of the country is dead, where is there still a young master? Just call me Wei Yin..."

"But……"

"I know you want to say that the royal family of Wei has been surnamed Qi for generations, but the kingdom of Wei was destroyed in my generation, and choosing to use the country as the surname is just a little psychological comfort for me, a sad subjugated slave."

Gong Ziyin struggled to coax the child to sleep, took him into the room and covered him with a quilt, and then sat down to talk with the two of them.

They had too much to say, day and night after parting, they were thinking about how to speak when they reunited, but when this moment really came, they fell silent.

"That child..." Yu Jingnian struggled to find an entry point, but he couldn't finish the question.

"Nan Jun Zi Sui entrusted me to raise him, he is Jiu Ge's son..."

In the past six years of being a prisoner, Wei Yin has already lost weight and is no longer what he used to be. Whenever he thinks of his son's appearance like this, Xue Wuhua wants to cry out in pain to vent.

Yu Jingnian's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and seeing Wei Yin like this, he couldn't say anything. Compared with other things, talking about Chu Jiuge could cheer up Wei Yin.

"Master, Chu Jiuge...has no children."

"I know." Wei Yin replied indifferently, "But since he treats this child as his own, I have to treat him sincerely."

Xue Wuhua stared at the child in the room for a long time, always feeling that something was wrong, until then, he suddenly realized "ah", turned his head and asked: "No, this child looks like seven or eight years old , why can't you speak?"

Wei Yin sighed deeply, and said helplessly, "It's not that I don't teach, I've tried my best... It's just that this child really can't learn."

Yu Jingnian and Xue Wuhua looked at each other and finally understood.

This child must be sick, otherwise it would be impossible for him to look like he was two or three years old at sixty years old.

In this way, after the fall of the Kingdom of Wei, Gong Ziyin was taken to Nangong and placed under house arrest for six years, and he helped Xun Sui to raise the child for six years? !

Yu Jingnian really couldn't believe that such an otherworldly son-in-law actually turned into a full-time father, struggling to take care of Chu Jiuge's adopted child in the southern country.

"Is Jiuge okay?"

"Drinking the water of Wangchuan, and forced to recall the past, he died. Fortunately, he hanged himself with jellyfish bone algae. In a few days, he will be able to walk on the ground."

Only then did Gong Ziyin let go of the boulder that had been hanging in his heart for six years, and he felt really relaxed.

The three of them chose to remain silent, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward, as if the air had frozen. Only then did Xue Wuhua remember the purpose of letting them come here, and winked at Yu Jingnian, who immediately understood, cleared his throat, Relieve the helplessness in my heart: "Young master, what was the truth about the fall of the Wei country back then?"
