Scene after scene appeared in front of Zhao Dun's eyes. When he woke up, it seemed as if he had had a long dream. When he woke up from the dream, he could not calm down for a long time.
Not only because of the loyalty of the Xu family and his son, but also because 300,000 soldiers died in front of his eyes. He had never seen such a heroic scene in the palace.
Zhao Dun rubbed his eyes and asked:
"Was that a dream just now? Or is it really happening?"
Zhao Kai said softly:
"The Great Dream Spring and Autumn, the secret knowledge of Longhu Mountain, as to whether what happened in the dream is real or not.
If I didn't participate, such a scene would definitely happen. If you have cultivated to my level, you will be able to know what will happen in the future."
Zhao Kai's Great Dream Spring and Autumn was given to him by Zhao Xituan when he went to Longhu Mountain before. Zhao Kai's cultivation time is still short, but it is not difficult to use it on mortals.
"Isn't this what you, Li Yang, want to see? Now that you have seen it with your own eyes, what do you think?"
The reason why Zhao Kai took him to see all the scenery in Beiliang was to show him these scenery.
The human heart is made of flesh. When Zhao Dun saw the 300,000 Northern Liang soldiers who died fighting for the people of the Central Plains, even the most ruthless person would be touched, right?
After a long time, Zhao Dun came to his senses. The scene in his dream could not be forgotten for a long time, and he immediately said to Zhao Kai:
"In the final analysis, it is I, Li Yang, who owes Beiliang,"
Zhao Kai did not speak. If he were in the same position as Xu Fengnian, he would not be able to risk all of Beiliang's property and hundreds of thousands of loyal Beiliang soldiers for the ruthless Li Yang.
Because of this, Zhao Kai felt that the people of Liyang owed Beiliang too much.
Zhao Dun sighed softly, and then said as if he had made up his mind:
"Take me somewhere."
"good"
Liangzhou City is a hilltop that is not too high.
Zhao Kai brought Zhao Dun here. Zhao Kai pointed to a cemetery up the mountain and said:
"Ahead is the tomb of Princess Wu Su of Northern Liang,"
Zhao Dun nodded and said:
"Please make a trip and invite Xu Xiao, King of Northern Liang, over."
After Zhao Dun finished speaking, he walked toward Wu Su's tomb alone.
Zhao Kai nodded. Both Zhao Dun and Xu Xiao were already in their twilight years. If they were able to settle their grudges while alive, they might not have so many regrets.
Soon after, Zhao Kai came over with Xu Xiao, the king of Northern Liang, followed closely by Xu Weixiong. Xu Fengnian was still traveling in Beimang and did not come back.
Xu Xiao looked complicated and hesitant. He didn't know what attitude to use to face Zhao Dun. In any case, he was a minister and Zhao Dun was the king.
Zhao Kai also saw his dilemma, so he bowed and said:
"I will not be involved in your grudges. Prince, you can go there by yourself. If anything happens, I will take care of it."
Xu Xiao cupped his fists at Zhao Kai and said:
"Thank you very much"
Then he turned away the servants, not letting Xu Weixiong follow, and walked towards Wu Su's tomb alone.
Zhao Kai looked at Xu Weixiong. She was so heroic now and looked like a general, and said:
"How are you doing lately?"
Their eyes met, but there was no hint of blushing or shyness. The two of them had known each other for many years and already knew each other's personalities well.
The corners of Xu Weixiong's mouth curled up slightly and he said:
"Well, it's good, but we are about to lead troops into Beimang and bring Xiaonian back. I'm afraid the days from now won't be so easy."
Zhao Kai nodded and said:
"This trip is very difficult, so you must be careful. If something cannot be done, send me a letter immediately! No matter how far it is, I will rush over."
Xu Weixiong smiled and said:
"Don't worry, you can kill seven in and seven out in Beimang, then I, the Snow Dragon Rider, can do the same!"
Zhao Kai then took out several pieces of jade pendants and said:
"Take these jade pendants and crush them when you encounter a powerful enemy. This piece can increase your strength to a higher level. With your current strength, it should be enough to deal with the celestial realm.
This area can recover from injuries...
This piece is for escaping..."
Zhao Kai had previously obtained a lot of jade pendants from the corpses of immortals. Before coming to Beiliang, Zhao Kai had made a lot of magic talismans just in case. He was like an old father, constantly
Explaining the function of the magic talisman, he was afraid that Xu Weixiong didn't know the same thing.
Looking at Zhao Kai who was still chattering, Xu Weixiong couldn't help laughing and said:
"Okay, okay, now that I know how good you are, I will continue. You are more verbose than my father."
The two have known each other for many years, so naturally she would not refuse anything Zhao Kai gave her.
After taking the jade pendant, Xu Weixiong looked at Wu Su's tomb in the distance and said:
"I'd like to thank you on behalf of my mother. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid my father would regret it for the rest of his life, and so would those who were previously in the Heavenly Prison.
In fact, you don’t have to be like this at all. After all, he is also your father, so we are very grateful that you can stand by and watch."
Zhao Kai said:
"I didn't force him this time. He wanted to come here on his own. I just told him the cause and effect of the matter and let him make his own choice."
If today's events were to spread to Tai'an City, I'm afraid that the royal family's prestige would fall to the bottom in an instant, and those who opposed him would be like a mountain roaring and a tsunami.
But Zhao Kai didn't want to worry about that. What he pursued was nothing more than fairness. He had to admit when he was wrong. Beiliang's 300,000 cavalry could die facing the north. Compared with this, an apology from the so-called emperor seemed insignificant.
So important.
Zhao Kai smiled again and said:
"I am making you laugh. The royal family is like this. There is no such thing as a loving father and a filial son, and deep brotherly love. It is far worse than you."
Xu Weixiong also smiled in return and said:
"You are different from them. The Zhao Kai I know will not be corrupted by imperial power."
Zhao Kai said:
"Yes, if a person is not afraid of life and death, how can he be afraid of it? If he is not greedy for imperial power, how can he be tempted by imperial power?"
The breeze blew, and both of them looked into the distance in unison, as if they were the only two people left in this world.
After that, the two of them found a teahouse to sit down and reminisce about old times, as if they didn't care at all about what happened between Xu Xiao and Zhao Dun.
After some small talk, Xu Weixiong said:
"Recently, I have been hearing reports from Tai'an City, saying that you spend all your time hanging out in major restaurants, drinking and drinking, facing oirans, and spending huge sums of money. That person shouldn't be you, right?"
Hearing this, Zhao Kai secretly thought that something was wrong, and he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. Sure enough, what he did in Tai'an City had already spread to her ears. It was also true that he had been too high-profile these days in order to deceive others.
I'm afraid not only Beiliang, but also everyone in the world knows about it, right?
Just as he was about to explain, Xu Weixiong said again:
"Then Chen Yu, is he really that good-looking?"
Zhao Kai wiped the cold sweat from his head, put down the trembling tea cup with half of it left with his other hand, and smiled awkwardly:
"Then what... These are just ways to deceive others. You also know that everyone in the capital is focusing on me, so I only let the clone go over to show off..."
"As for Chen Yu you are talking about, ahem, I don't have very good eyesight. I don't know if she is good-looking, haha..."
Zhao Kai was able to explain this matter clearly through hard talk. Chen Yu's matter was easy to explain. If she asked about Zhang Gaoxia's matter, then Zhao Kai would really feel guilty.
Xu Xiao and Zhao Dun stayed in front of Wu Su's tomb for a whole day and night.
One day later, the two old men left Wu Su's tomb together and came to Zhao Kai. As the night passed, the two of them seemed much older. Xu Xiao did not speak, but just patted Zhao Kai on the shoulder and clicked.
He nodded and left with Xu Weixiong.
No one knows what happened between the two of them, and what happened between them is also a mystery that is difficult to solve. All they know is that after this, the smile on Xu Xiao's face increased a lot.
