In the dead of night, people are still in the city.
Xie Jue stood on the city wall, looking in the direction of Kyoto. Xie Xun climbed up the city wall and stood side by side with Xie Jue. Starlight illuminated the night road, but they had no way back.
"Second brother..."
The two are dressed in plain white, have similar heights, similar body shapes, and five-point similarity in appearance. From the back, they look like twins.
The family was broken up and people died suddenly, and both Xie Jue and Xie Xun found it difficult to accept the fact that their parents had passed away and their eldest brother was not here. But they no longer held on to the slightest hope and expected everything to be a nightmare.
"Is the injury better?"
"Much better!" Xie Xun looked depressed, and the moonlight cast a thin layer of light on him. His high-spirited brother's eyes had lost their sparkle. Xie Jue had already expected that this drastic change would distort their lives.
But I had hoped that it was just because he was being careless, that the truth was not that bad, and that there was still room for redemption.
But the reality was worse than he expected!
"If father had listened to your advice, would we still be in this situation?" Xie Xun muttered to himself, as if he was torturing himself, but also as if he couldn't let go.
"I don't know." Does Xie Jue have any regrets?
Of course, he did. He regretted that he had traveled too slowly under the stars and at night. What he regretted was that if he had been more careful in Xiyan Mountain, he would not have been blind and would not have delayed the treatment for a day or two. When it was proposed to mobilize troops, his father
I disagree, he should be tougher, why did he compromise so easily? Before he left the capital, he told his father not to reduce his troops. He had 30,000 cavalry, 5,000 in the city, and 25,000 outside the city until his eldest brother got married and divorced.
Beijing, there can be no changes, my father agreed! Since he agreed, why should they take a vacation and return to their hometown? This is a game. My father lost the bet. Did he think it over when he made the decision? On the day of the wedding, everyone
With everyone letting their guard down, it was a good time for Yu Wenjing to take action.
Xie Jue reviewed the whole process from the victory to the accident. In fact, he had too many opportunities to change everything, and every time he was just a little bit closer. He lost to his father's loyalty to the Yuwen royal family and lost to his father.
Responsibility for all people in the world. What was his father thinking before he died?
"We may have to be unfilial sons!" Xie Jue said.
Having been brothers for many years, Xie Xun knew what he was talking about, "A hundred years later, if we bear the thorn again to apologize, maybe... we won't live that long."
Even if they were unjustly accused of regicide, even if they were hacked to death, their father did not want them to rebel before he died, nor did he want them to cause military disasters and split Yanyang. He wanted them to remain anonymous and live in peace and stability for the rest of their lives.
"Zhixu, do you want to be the emperor?"
"I never thought about it!" Xie Xun said, "I just want revenge!"
"It doesn't matter. From now on, think slowly!" Xie Jue looked in the direction of Kyoto, "One day, our army will break through that city wall again!"
"Why did he kill his father?" Xie Xun couldn't suppress the anger in his heart. Although he didn't like Emperor Jianming, at least Emperor Jianming was peaceful, obedient, good at peace, and never committed the crime of killing. Emperor Jianming and Yu Wenjing had a very good relationship.
He was the son he raised and raised in his arms. How could Yu Wenjing commit such a heinous crime?
"After the peace talks and the implementation of the new deal, the Yuwen royal family will be able to centralize power and get rid of the control of the family. Ningzhou will also reduce its troops. Our brothers will also move to Ningzhou to garrison and guard the border for the Yuwen royal family for generations. When Yuwenjing ascends the throne, he will be able to get rid of
All the restraints are imposed, and no one dares to disobey when he calls for it. Why would he do this and not even hesitate to kill his father and king?"
This is the pain that Xie Xun presses in his heart and cannot let go.
When his eldest brother sent him to Gaoping, he saw that the garrison was calm and calm, and he still wanted to accompany Feng Yu on the sightseeing tour. In fact, Xie Xun felt that the war between the Yuwen royal family and the Hou Mansion had turned into friendship, and the monarch and his ministers were in harmony, and nothing would happen again.
The Marquis's work was blameless, and his servants were loyal and did not make any mistakes. What reason could Emperor Jianming find to embarrass them?
Without the slightest precaution, his family was ruined.
Xie Xun blamed himself and felt remorseful, resenting that he was not careful enough. If he could see something strange in the Gaoping garrison, even a little bit, it would be good to alert his father.
"Zhixu, don't regard other people's ambition and greed as your own fault." Xie Jue said softly, "Let's all accept the reality. Blood debts must be paid with blood!"
I wrote a picture of my eldest brother and sister’s small theater when they were young and put it in the new book group.
