"Don't do anything," Jiang Heng's first words were, "Don't do anything, if you are in danger, think about me, I will have nothing, brother."
"I understand," Geng Shu said sadly, "I always understand."
"Why?" Jiang Heng didn't quite understand this matter.
ξ΄βξβHe has always been very understanding. Killing a minister is justified, it has always been the case throughout the ages.
It was very suitable for Juicong to want to kill him, but the most inappropriate thing was, why kill him now? If he was a juicy Cong, he would never act at this time. The world has not yet been unified, and he still has a lot of use for himself.
Does Prince Taki know about this? Does Empress Dowager Jiang know? Does Aya know
Geng Shu finished drinking the medicine in silence and got up.
"Don't move." Jiang Heng said.
"It's okay, Heng'er." Geng Shu said, "I want to go out for a walk, let's go together, not in the palace, but in the palace."
Jiang Heng has recovered from the shock at the beginning, regained his wisdom, and began to analyze this problem with his own ingenuity. Now is the time to think hard, but Geng Shu insists on going out for a breath.
Jiang Heng couldn't help it, so he had to accompany him. Geng Shu didn't use a cane and walked a few steps, and his waist and abdomen hurt a little bit, but Jiang Heng's medicinal herbs were very effective, and they were much better than yesterday. He judged based on the situation that he could recover in less than a month, but during this time, it must be very small, after all, no one knows when the assassin will come again.
"I don't understand why," Jiang Heng said, "I have no grievances with him, maybe he still remembers the sword at Yubi Pass, but even if he wants to attack me, it shouldn't be now..."
Geng Shu listened silently, he knew that Jiang Heng couldn't take more shocks today, he couldn't imagine what Jiang Heng would think when he heard the truth, he was wrong if he said it, and it was wrong if he didn't say it, and sometimes he even preferred to make a mistake himself. , concealing him for the rest of his life counts.
But this was even more unfair to him. Geng Shu knew that he was deceiving him, so he really had a dilemma.
"Maybe he thinks I can't control it." Jiang Heng said to himself, "After he dies, Juicy will definitely obey me. In order to protect Juicy, he must kill me."

"No, it's not." Geng Shu murmured.
After Jiang Heng's mind was clear, his analysis was also much clearer, and he said, "With you by my side, we have the power of a diligent king. He won't start early when he is in power, and he won't be able to move me in the future..."
"I said, no, Heng'er." Geng Shu said, "Not only that."
The two stopped, Geng Shu and Jiang Heng looked at each other, the rain was falling under the corridor, and every drop of water was like a thread intertwined.
Jiang Heng didn't know why and looked at Geng Shu.
"I was wrong," Geng Shu said, "I shouldn't have believed him. I was too naive. Someone was nice to me. If you weren't by my side, I didn't know who I was. I..."
"It's nothing," Jiang Heng comforted Geng Shu instead, "that's your father."
Geng Shu raised his hand, indicating that Jiang Heng didn't need to help him and let him finish.
Standing alone under the porch, he looked up at the overwhelming rain and said, "One night, I suddenly remembered something."
"Which day?" Jiang Heng didn't ask anything, but instead asked the time.
"The day you were injured outside Luoyan City." Geng Shu said, "The day I finished talking with Lang Huang, I returned to the room, and then you rested, but I couldn't fall asleep. Looking at you, I thought of Yubi. off the snowy night."
Jiang Heng: "Well, the day I assassinated him."
Geng Shu said: "I always feel that something is wrong. Now, just now, I finally remembered."
"At that time, were you blindfolded by Crown Prince Ling?" Geng Shu asked, "You told me, and now I'll say it again, try not to miss any details."
Jiang Heng nodded and described the situation to Geng Shu in detail once, including how Juicong held him in his arms, how to remove his blindfold, and look into his eyes.
"You can only rely on feeling," Geng Shu said, "I don't know what else he is holding in his hand."
Jiang Heng nodded, and Geng Shu said, "You know what? At that time, in addition to holding you, he also held a dagger. That dagger was the first time I met him with him. Weapons to use!"
Jiang Heng: "!!!"
Jiang Heng: "He knows! He knows I'm an assassin?!"
"No!" Geng Shu said, "He doesn't know, that's the most important thing! If he knew you were an assassin first, why would he hold you? He wouldn't even allow you to approach him!"
At this moment, Geng Shu doesn't know whether Ju Cong is aware of Jiang Heng's identity, but one thing is certain. Ji Ju Cong didn't have the slightest doubt about Jiang Heng's identity at first. He knew very well that Jiang Heng could not be a fake!
And based on this premise, Juicong actually planned to kill him directly that night, and would not let him see Geng Shu, but he miscalculated. Since Jiang Heng was Geng Yuan's son, he was an assassin who came to kill him. .
In the end, the situation in which Juicong did not kill him but was counter-killed, and the moment Geng Shu rushed into the door, happened to see the dagger.
At the time, he didn't have much time, and when he came back to his senses, he figured out the key.
Jiang Heng was not surprised at all, after all, from the very beginning, he and Juicong had a life-and-death relationship.
"Why?" Jiang Heng felt unreasonable.
"I don't know." Geng Shu said, "What's even more strange is that he didn't kill me when he saw me for the first time."
"There is only one explanation." Jiang Heng thought for a while, then said, "Forget it, let's not talk about it."
Geng Shu raised his eyebrows and looked at him inquiringly.
Jiang Heng said: "If you have a chance, just ask him in person. Actually, I'm not sure about this."
Geng Shu was silent, while Jiang Heng vaguely thought of the reason. Without him, Geng Shu's loyalty would be dedicated to the Ju family, to Ju Cong and the prince Taki and his son. He would be like them. The father of the general, devoted his life to the Yong royal family.
But once Jiang Heng came back, the relationship would be different. In order to ensure that the adopted son he cultivated by himself would always be loyal to the prince, he Jiang Heng had to die.
But he was still in a hurry, why was he in such a hurry? Jiang Heng always felt that there was another reason behind this.
"You still want to see him?" Geng Shu asked.
"With you here," Jiang Heng said, "what am I afraid of?"
At the same time, Jiang Heng thought of another person - Jie Gui!
There was no sign of Jie Gui's path that night, and it was unreasonable, but now that he thought about it, Jiang Heng finally realized why Jie Gui took him away, and there was no threat at that time. And Jie Gui must be clear that the person who wants to kill him is Juicong!
Geng Shu couldn't answer this. It was far beyond his ability to fight against the entire Yong Kingdom. No matter how strong an assassin's martial arts were, he couldn't resist the siege of ten thousand armies. die.
Even so, Geng Shu nodded seriously - that was his promise.
"Well," Geng Shu said, "I can, and I am willing."
Jiang Heng said, "Jie Gui must know the inside story."
"Are you going to go back and ask him?" Geng Shu said a little uneasy, with guilt in his eyes.
Jiang Heng didn't think much, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I'm thinking about what we will do in the future."
Geng Shu said: "I'm trying to solve this matter."
Saying that, he walked slowly through the corridor and toward the imperial garden, and at the same time signaled that he didn't need to help him.
"How to solve it?" Jiang Heng is used to it. For a long time, as long as he and Geng Shu talked about the future, he was the one who made the decision. He was responsible for deciding all their futures, and Geng Shu always listened to him.
However, from the day he left Luoyan City, he gradually discovered that Geng Shu seemed to have changed, and he began to take on this decisive role, strongly determining their fate.
It seems that they are no longer like they used to be, and everything Geng Shu is waiting for him to come up with a solution.
"Heng'er," Geng Shu said, "listen to me."
"I'll listen to you." Jiang Heng got up and looked at Geng Shu's figure. At that moment, he felt that Geng Shu, as always, could always be counted on. He was his brother and everything to him.
Geng Shu walked slowly through the garden, his body straight, as if he had never been injured, his voice was steady, Jiang Heng keenly felt that he didn't want anyone to know his injury.
Prince An was discussing matters with two aides in the book hall, when he saw Geng Shu taking the lead in walking in, he suddenly raised his head.
"I heard that the two have captured the assassins," Prince An was about to get up and said, "I don't know what the situation is, General Xiang is chasing Yu Dang..."
"Prince." Geng Shu said.
Geng Shu held his hands behind his back, as if he was restoring the demeanor of a prince from a military commander in the Yong Kingdom. Prince An immediately understood that he did not want to hide his identity any more.
"His Royal Highness Miao decided?" Prince An said.
Geng Shu didn't look at Jiang Heng, and said, "I have decided to prepare your army. After the third day of March, I will lead you to the expedition."
Geng Shu released Haidongqing to inform Song County that the entire army was in a state of war; Prince An personally persuaded officials and his father in the DPRK to prepare to take a large piece of land in the south of Liang before the Federation.
"Oh?" King Ying Xiong Lei finished practicing the first stage of "magical skills" taught by Jiang Heng, and he has been in high spirits recently, and said, "Zimiao is willing to help us fight? This is very rare, what does he want? condition?"
Prince Anchao's father said: "Because Lord Jiang is his younger brother, he has to take care of us in Jiangzhou. It is human nature to have an alliance between Ying Yong and his brothers."
Jiang Heng and Geng Shu were sitting and listening, "Zimiao" was on the spot, and Prince An didn't say anything, "We need to prepare 80,000 soldiers and horses to join him, and the Yong army stationed in Song County will be sent by the army. Playing forward for the country."
Jiang Heng: "At that time, I will also go to Song County, uh... Me and Nie Hai, I will join the army as my brother and accompany him on the expedition to Zhaoshui."
"What's wrong with this!" King Ying suddenly changed his face and said, "It's absolutely impossible! There are assassins who have come to assassinate you. If you have three strengths and two weaknesses, who will this king go to?"
For a while, Jiang Heng couldn't tell whether Xiong Lei was really thinking about the follow-up of the "magic power", or he wanted to hold him hostage.
"It's not just my brother." Jiang Heng said.
"Well," Geng Shu calmly beside him, pressing his hand on the Lie Light Sword intentionally or unintentionally, "It's not just his brother, there must be the two of us."
Jiang Heng signaled Geng Shu to stop making trouble. He suspected that Xiong Lei had already seen the identity of Geng Shu.
Xiong Lei: "This..."
"Father," Prince An said, "Mr. Jiang likes our Ying Kingdom very much."
"We will definitely come back safe and sound." Jiang Heng said, the stakes involved, he believed that Xiong Lei knew clearly: Why did Geng Shu fight for the country of Ying? Because of the three caves of the cunning rabbit, since Juicong wanted to kill him, they couldn't stay in Yong Kingdom any longer, and they had to find a new place to live.
In a world of great contention, it is normal for princes and officials of various royal families to wander and take refuge. Jiang Heng believes that Juicong's move may not necessarily be praised by Prince Taki, and even the royal family and the court are mostly unaware of it - when Juicong dies, the two of them will Great to go back.
And if you want to stay in the Ying Kingdom, you have to do something for them. As long as you don't infringe on the interests of the Yong Kingdom, you can fight.
This is also the reason why Geng Shu did not reject Xiong An's proposal when they first met. Since then, he has been thinking about finding a new home for the two of them.
"Okay." Xiong Lei understood after thinking about it. Most of the two in front of him couldn't stay in Yong Kingdom anymore, but why? He has never been informed of this, the only possibility is the origin of those assassins.
As a monarch, Xiong Lei naturally couldn't be a fool. There was a little doubt in his eyes, and then he nodded, "Then, Jiang Heng, you must come back safely."
Jiang Heng nodded.
Xiong Lei got up and said, "Just chat with me, Jiang Heng, this king has suddenly figured out a lot in the past few days."
Jiang Heng and Geng Shu looked at each other, and Geng Shu nodded, signaling him to go.
