Chapter 2: Bloodshed on the battlefield and escape from the Immortal Gate
Chapter 82 The whole story
"Sister, just do whatever you say, I will listen to you."
Ye Feng chuckled and licked it as if it didn't matter.
"Well! It's not as simple as you think."
Jiang Meiliang rolled his eyes at Ye Feng, and Ye Feng's kneeling and licking words should still be very useful.
"Actually, I can understand my father, but I just can't get over the hurdle in my heart!"
Jiang Meiliang organized his words and then said:
"In my memory, my father has always been very busy, either preparing for war or in the midst of fighting. It was rare to see him when I was a child.
My mother passed away when I was very young. In my memory, my mother is very vague. My childhood memories are basically of my three brothers.
My father was away all the year round, so I only had three brothers to take care of me. They were all very kind to me and would never make me unhappy in the slightest. Unfortunately, they all died in battle one after another.
I was only six years old when my eldest brother died in the war. I still remember that after knowing that my eldest brother would never come back, I found my father, lost my temper with him for the first time, and loudly asked him why he let my eldest brother go to the battlefield.
It was that year that I, who had always been careless, began to practice martial arts hard and study the art of war, thinking about revenge for my elder brother.
A few years later, another war broke out with the Kingdom of Wu, and the second brother died in the battle again.
The second brother's death was a huge blow to my father. Seeing my father grow old all night long, I didn't argue with him anymore because I was ten years old and knew that my father also had his own frustrations.
Our Jiang State suffered a tragic victory that time. After that battle, my father was named Taiwei and took over the military power of the Jiang State. From that time on, my father began to become taciturn.
Three years ago, the war broke out again. The third brother was already the deputy commander of Qixia Pass. Facing the Wu army that was dozens of times larger than his own, the border officers held on for three months, but they could not hope for reinforcements from the imperial court.
In the end, all the soldiers at the border who had run out of ammunition and food were wiped out, and three died in battle.
The death of the third brother completely angered his father, and I don’t know what means he used to finally make the court decide to send troops.
This battle lasted for more than a year, and finally the Wu State was defeated and Qixia Pass was recovered. More than half a year ago, my father returned to the court with his troops, while I stayed at Qixia Pass to lead the frontier army.
But three months ago, my father, who had completely taken control of the military, actually stopped all supplies at the border. I asked my father many times, but I couldn't get a clear reply. He just urged me to return to Beijing as soon as possible, but no formal official notice was issued by the military.
transfer order.
After many inquiries, there was news in the capital that the emperor had been seriously ill three years ago, but was under house arrest, and the person who placed the emperor under house arrest was his father.
When I came back this time, I had a long talk with my father. The emperor was indeed under house arrest, but it was not his father's fault. Of course, he had his tacit approval.
The death of the three brothers made my father completely disappointed with the court. Especially the death of the third brother made my father full of resentment towards the court, because it was the court's resolute refusal to send troops that led to the death of the third brother in the war.
At that time, the reason why my father compromised and acquiesced to the house arrest of the emperor was so that he could send troops to the border as soon as possible, but unfortunately it was too late in the end.
I can understand my father's mood. Even I am full of resentment towards the imperial court, so I have no objection to my father's desire to overthrow the imperial court.
Just because of the Ice Phoenix Talisman, it is not that simple to truly make up one's mind to overthrow the imperial court, because as long as the emperor does not hand over the Ice Phoenix Wood, everyone will sacrifice his life for him.
Perhaps my father was determined to die together because of despair, but others were not, so the current stalemate was formed."
