Rebirth of the ghost concubine of the confused country

Chapter 66

"However, Xin'er, you are engaged to Prince Ji, and the emperor refers to the marriage. How can you retire so easily? What's more, even if you divorce, do you really want to marry the prince? If you really want to Marrying the prince, uncle and grandpa are naturally on the side of the prince, when we support you as queen in the future, won't our Cai family be proud?"

Cai Chong asked incomprehensibly.

"Uncle, things are not as simple as you said? Since ancient times, the loser is the bandit, and the winner is the king. As a courtier, you lined up in the wrong line, but even if you lined up right, you can't make a big impact on the matter of beheading." Lord, you have military power in your hands, and now you are naturally the one the prince and the king of Ji want to win over, but if in the future, when one of them becomes emperor, you will be their biggest threat, do you think they will How about guarding against you? I think you should be careful, otherwise, when one of them comes to power, you will be the first one to deal with them. That's why, uncle, Xiner will advise you to be wise and protect yourself!"

Zhu Zixin stood still and spoke to Cai Chong very seriously.

"You mean, the queen's words may not be credible?"

Cai Zhong seemed to understand more, but also seemed more confused, and asked again.

"No, at least she is true now. However, she said that she will make me a queen in the future. It may not be true. It depends on her thoughts at the time. So, uncle, you must save yourself a hand and don't treat her too much." Too sincere, what Xiner is most afraid of is that you and grandpa will be hurt! And in this way, they can also be controlled."

Zhu Zixin said.

"Okay, Kinji, Uncle knows what to do."

Although Cai Zhong still didn't quite understand, he was aware of the seriousness of the situation, so he said.

However, he also looked at Zhu Zixin suspiciously, and asked, "Xin'er, how do you know these things? You are only 13 years old, how can you think so much?"

"This……"

After hearing Cai Zhong's words, Zhu Zixin suddenly became stupid. She has been thinking about how to protect her uncle and grandfather for the past few days, but she never thought of what she looks like now. She is only 13 years old, and she is still a girl raised in a deep boudoir , How can the analysis of the form of the authorities be so thorough?So when asked by her uncle, she immediately didn't know how to answer.

After thinking for a while, Zhu Zixin finally said: "Oh, you said what I said. In fact, Xiner understood this. These are what my elder brother said."

"You mean Zhu Ziyi?"

Cai Zhong asked.

Zhu Zixin nodded hastily, and said in her heart, it's lucky to have a big brother, otherwise, she really didn't know how to answer.

"That's right, you are young and promising! It seems that your big brother is really talented, and you will have a bright future in the future!"

Cai Zhong nodded repeatedly and praised.

At this time, Cai Zhong stopped and said, "The armory is also here."

"arrive?"

Zhu Zixin looked around, only saw a rockery standing in front of him, but never saw a house.

"You wait."

As he spoke, Cai Zhong walked towards a clump of bamboo outside the weapon room, where there was a stone, he moved the stone away, and the door of the weapon room opened slowly.

She did not know how many times she visited this rockery when she was a child, but she never noticed any difference.

"It's so mysterious!"

Zhu Zixin was dumbfounded, looked at the stone gate that was slowly rising upwards, and said.

Just now, she was just walking, until her uncle said that the armory room was here, and she stopped, but she couldn't see where the room was. Only then did she realize that the armory room was originally a rockery on the outside. It's the armory.

"Xin'er, let's go."

Seeing that the door was open, Cai Zhong took Zhu Zixin's hand and walked inside.

As soon as the two of them walked in, the door closed behind them.

"Grandpa! Grandpa..."

As soon as he walked in, Zhu Zixin shouted.

"Stop shouting, he can't hear you."

Cai Zhong said behind her.

"Why, didn't you say that grandpa is here?"

Zhu Zixin asked.

Only then did she look around, and saw that this was a square room about ten meters long, the walls all around were smooth stones, and there was an ever-burning lamp on top of her head, and through those lights, she could actually see the smooth stone walls their shadows are reflected

"Why did you make the stone wall so smooth?"

Zhu Zixin asked with some confusion.

"Your grandfather is very careful, and he is afraid that people will steal his treasures, so he has repaired everything in such a way that as long as someone comes in, he can see it from the wall."

Cai Zhong explained.

"I see, grandpa is so smart!"

Zhu Zixin couldn't help admiring.

"Hehehe... that's natural."

Cai Zhong laughed.

"But where is he now? Why can't I see him?"

Zhu Zixin asked.

"You come with me."

As Cai Zhong said, he walked towards the stone wall beside him.

He touched the stone wall a few times, and a crack appeared in the stone wall, which slowly opened.

It turns out that there is also a secret room inside, and this is the real weapon room.

Cai Zhong opened the door, turned around and said, "Why are you still standing there, come in quickly."

Zhu Zixin hurriedly responded and ran in.

"Chonger, is that you?"

Inside the house, came a vigorous but somewhat old voice.

"Dad, it's me."

Cai Zhong hastily responded.

"And me, Xiner, Grandpa."

Zhu Zixin also called out.

With that said, he walked forward.

Unexpectedly, after taking a step, I realized that there are stone boxes placed everywhere on the ground here.

"Why are there so many stone boxes?"

Zhu Zixin asked.

"Just follow uncle."

Cai Zhong said.Then, take the lead in walking forward.

Zhu Zixin followed behind him, and after walking two steps, he heard the old voice coming again, saying, "How can Xin'er come here? This is not a place where girls should come."

"Grandpa, it was Xiner who begged my uncle to bring me here. Xiner wanted to see what weapons my grandfather captured during the war, who were those people, and how did they lose to grandpa? I also want to imagine here How heroic and brave my grandfather was back then!"

After hearing what Grandpa said, Zhu Zixin feared that he would blame Uncle, so he raised his voice.

What's more, this is her sincere admiration, not flattery.

"When did Xiner's small mouth become so eloquent? Now that you're here, come and have a look."

General Cai's voice suddenly became cheerful.

"it is good!"

With a promise, Zhu Zixin followed his uncle's footsteps, taking a few steps to the left and a few steps to the right, stepping over one stone box after another, finally reaching a wide area.

I saw that this place was as wide as [-] square meters, and the walls on all sides were all red, as if they were specially fired with a kind of red clay.

Next to the wall, a high platform was built 20 centimeters higher than the ground. The high platform also looked like [-] meters. There was a coffin in the middle. At this time, an old man with white hair and beard and dressed in white was sitting On the coffin lid, he was wiping a polished sword in his hand.

"Grandpa!"

Zhu Zixin yelled, ran a few steps quickly, and went up the steps.

"How did you get here?"

Cai Kangyong didn't stop the movement in his hand, he just asked.

"Xiner misses grandpa!"

Zhu Zixin said as he walked to Cai Kangyong's side, hugged his neck and said.

"Heh...be careful with the sword!"

Seeing this, Cai Kangyong said while sheathing the sword in his hand.

"Grandpa,
Are these stone boxes filled with weapons? "

Zhu Zixin pointed to those stone boxes and asked.

"Yes. They are all weapons."

Cai Kangyong said with a sigh.

After finishing speaking, he glanced at the stone boxes all over the floor, and said again: "Those years of conquests, countless people were killed, and the weapons of many of them are lying here now."

As he spoke, Cai Kangyong walked down the high platform slowly. He walked with his hands behind his back and said, "For a general, weapons are their life, and they have long been integrated with their weapons. On the battlefield , we have different positions, so we have to fight, but in private, I have no grievances with them. Some people are fighting for their country with pride until the last moment. Although, I also killed for my country. They, but I admire them sincerely in my heart. In my heart, I have regarded them as friends. I collected their weapons because I thought that if they had spirits in heaven, they would find them. I And to talk to my friends..."

Speaking of this, Cai Kangyong fumbled for one of the stone boxes, his eyes were a little blurred, as if he had returned to a certain previous battle. "Grandpa, so you collect weapons for this reason?"

After Zhu Zixin finished asking, he looked at his uncle, and it was obvious that Cai Zhong had just found out about it.There was a flash of realization in his eyes. "Otherwise, what do you think?"

Cai Kangyong turned around and asked with a smile. "I... I thought that you collected weapons because you wanted to remember all your achievements. Shouldn't you leave some souvenirs for your great achievements? Shouldn't they be them?"

Zhu Zixin said as it should. "Heh... the old man has long ignored life and death in his military life, so how can he talk about these honors?"

After finishing speaking, Cai Kangyong looked at Zhu Zixin and asked, "Girl, are you okay after your mother left?" "I..."

After hesitating for a while, Zhu Zixin looked at his uncle, asking him to help.

Cai Kangyong nodded, and said: "The Queen threatened her to divorce the Prince of Ji and then engage the Prince. The purpose is for our Cai family to support her and the Prince." "Is there such a thing?"

Cai Kangyong was surprised.

After finishing speaking, he stroked his gray beard and said after a while: "It seems that the dispute between the two parties has reached a feverish stage! Otherwise, the queen would not be so impatient."

Zhu Zixin asked: "Grandpa, what do you think Xiner should do?"

Cai Kangyong narrowed his old eyes slightly, walked a few steps vigorously with his thin body, went up to the stage, and pulled out the sword that had just been wiped. In the faint candlelight, the sword shone with a cold light.

He said: "Xin'er, although grandpa is old now, my sword is still sharp. Now that the situation is unstable, our Cai family can't act rashly. Since the queen wants you to do this, you should follow her first. We Wait and see. Make plans later!"
