The blood letter on the bamboo slip in his hand seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. It fell to the ground with a thud, making a dull sound.
Half of his body on the ground, the young man's slightly thin shoulders trembled.
The audience, who had been sucking up to the young man's good looks, was stunned.
Did the streamer bully the young man?
Ye Wu Yanling: "What's wrong with the young man? He doesn't look like he's smiling, he's clearly crying. "
Ya Jingjing: "Pull out the 40-meter-long sword. Who bullied the young man? The 85 troops in the streaming room won't forgive him! "
Tumi: "Streamer, can you ask the young man why he suddenly cried?"
Zuzi Chuaiai: "The poor thing is crying like that. His heart is broken."
Some of the audience comforted him, while others looked for the reason for Qin Gong's sad crying.
In ancient times, men were particular about bleeding but not crying. If they were not extremely sad, they would not cry in front of others, let alone a general.
They would rather die standing than live kneeling. Crying was sometimes more shameful than living without purpose.
Jiang Pengji stood at the door and looked out. She considerately left some space for Qin Gong and some dignity for him.
Following the clues, the audience quickly focused their attention on the blood letter left by Xu Fei for Qin Gong.
Xingyue Tianyun: "Streamer, you've read the two blood letters. What's in the one you left for Qin Gong?"
Qin Gong was so sad after reading the blood letter that he could not control himself. Who would believe that it was not the blood letter?
Jiang Pengji crossed her arms in front of her chest and stood outside the elegant main hall of the provincial government. Wei Ci followed a step behind her. Neither of them spoke.
The audience was helpless. They could only work together to find the truth.
For a moment, Sherlock Holmes, Edogawa Conan, Robin, and other detectives appeared one after another. The entire streaming room was filled with inferences that made people not know whether to laugh or cry. Some of the audience's inferences were very close to the truth, while others had wild imaginations. They were as funny as they could be.
After a while, the young man's hoarse and suppressed voice came from the main hall.
"Magistrate of Liuzhou …"
Jiang Pengji returned and sat on the seat of honor.
"I was overwhelmed with emotions and couldn't control myself. I've embarrassed myself in front of Magistrate Liuzhou and Mister Wei."
Qin Gong had already wiped away the tears on his face, but there were still traces of tears on his cheeks. The tip of his nose and cheeks were dyed with an abnormal redness. His eyes were bloodshot, and his temperament was pitiful. It made people's maternal instincts explode. They wanted to rush out of the screen and hug him in their arms to comfort him.
Jiang Pengji was still expressionless. If she showed any sympathy or pity, it would be a heavy blow and humiliation to Qin Gong.
"Have you read your lord's letter?"
Qin Gong's body stiffened for a moment, and he could only squeeze out three words after a long while.
"Yes, I have."
Jiang Pengji lowered her eyes and sighed. "Do you know that he has no other choice? The enemy was strong while he was weak, and there was nothing he could do to save himself. Thinking about the past, he felt that he had let down his father and brother. Now, I don't want to implicate you. Without your talent, I don't want the bloodline of the Qin family to end. "
Qin Gong broke down in an instant. Tears welled up in his eyes and refused to fall.
He choked with a sobbing voice and said, "I wish I could imitate my father and brothers and willingly fight until the last drop of blood for my lord. Although I am still young, I know the word 'loyalty and filial piety.' Why would I abandon my lord in danger for my future, life, and bloodline? "
At the end of his sentence, Qin Gong's voice broke, and hot tears streamed down his cheeks.
It was like a young beast crying blood, and it made people's hearts tighten.
Jiang Pengji and him only had a few sentences in their conversation, but the audience had already imagined the entire plot.
Yeguru Porridge: "Uh … Cutie … was he abandoned by his lord?"
Yingluo: "It seems so. His lord knew that he was going to die, so he deliberately asked Cutie to send him away?"
Chenxing Gorilla: "Hehe, I bet on the streamer's integrity and shamelessness. This matter is definitely not that simple."
"You are loyal, and he must know this. Otherwise, he wouldn't have entrusted such an important task to you."
Qin Gong burst into tears again.
The last time he cried was when he was setting up a cenotaph for his father and brothers.
After the bloody battle, not even their corpses were left. He was the only one left in the family to shoulder the burden.
Jiang Pengji asked him to pass the remaining blood letter to Qin Gong. This was written by Xu Fei for her, but Qin Gong was fine after reading it.
Qin Gong endured the pain in his back as he opened the blood letter with trembling fingers. The image of his lord bending over the table and writing seemed to appear in his mind.
Although he did not let it go, he stopped crying.
After a while, he bowed to Jiang Pengji. His tone was stiff and difficult.
"Forgive me for my rudeness … May Magistrate of Liuzhou … give me a night and give me an answer tomorrow."
"It's alright." Jiang Pengji was very tolerant.
After Qin Gong left, Jiang Pengji said, "Although I have done many schemes in exchange for sincerity, this is the only time I feel guilty."
Wei Ci smiled faintly. "It's enough that my lord has a clear conscience. You feel guilty, but it's nothing more than Officer Qin's pureness. He can't bear to do it. "
Jiang Pengji said, "This Xu Fei is also considered an expert in psychological attacks."
"The first is to attack conspiracies, the second is to attack friends, the third is to attack soldiers, and the third is to attack cities. Psychological attacks are the top, and attacking the city is the bottom; psychological battles are the top, and military battles are the bottom, "Wei Ci replied." It's really embarrassing to say such things too clearly. Xu Fei wants to be strong for a lifetime, so he has to leave some leeway and face for himself. If he doesn't do this, Qin Gong won't completely pledge allegiance to my lord, and Xu Fei won't be able to get any benefits. "
In the blood letter that Xu Fei left for Qin Gong, there was no mention of him selling Qin Gong to Jiang Pengji as a bargaining chip. Instead, every word was written with Qin Gong in mind. He recalled the friendship between him and Qin Gong's father several times, and then thought of Qin Gong's eldest and second brothers dying in battle for him. He could not bear to see the bloodline of the Qin family being destroyed. He saw that Qin Gong was extremely talented and had a promising future, so he thought of ways to find a way out for Qin Gong.
The blood letter he wrote to Jiang Pengji was the same.
Xu Fei did not directly state his purpose. Instead, he recalled the situation of the alliance meeting at Huangshui, and imperceptibly shortened the distance between them.
They were obviously only friends, but in his words, they were very close.
After recalling, he did not tearfully complain about how badly he was bullied by Xu Bei. Instead, he talked about how good Qin Gong was.
He hoped that Jiang Pengji would let bygones be bygones and put Qin Gong in an important position.
He was a good seedling with good roots. If he was put in an important position, he would definitely make great contributions to Jiang Pengji.
He was so certain that he thought highly of Qin Gong.
He wrote it with such sincerity that Qin Gong naturally felt sad and touched.
His lord always planned for him and considered for him, but he could not stay by his lord's side and shed his blood for her. How could he not cry?
Only then did the audience realize what had happened. Their hearts felt heavy.
Wenmiaozangshi: "I originally wanted to be loyal to the ruler, but the ruler sent me away. Little brother, I feel wronged for you."
Wei Ci saw that Jiang Pengji was deep in thought. He asked softly, "Is my lord thinking about Field Officer Qin?"
"No, I'm thinking about you." Jiang Pengji said, "If I end up in the same situation as Xu Fei one day, I will kill you with my own hands."
