Chapter 143 (2/2)
”As for the military pay...” he said with a smile, ”I didn't have this idea until you arrived. I thought it was the compensation that your father owed us at the beginning. The father owed the son.”
Zhou Leping stood up and said, ”in the past, you were the people around my father that I admired most. But at that time, I was blind. I didn't see that you were such a person. You are a coward. Hiding on this small hill, you are like a rat who can't see anyone.”
”Well said!” Chen he asked for tea and offered her a toast. ”I'm really a coward, so I never told anyone how your father died.”
The girl kneeling on the ground stood up and handed Chen he a handkerchief. Chen he took it, wiped his mouth, threw the handkerchief into the girl's arms, and then hugged her face and kissed her.
The girl swept her eyes, and Zhou Le shrunk and trembled in Chen he's arms.
Chen he rubbed her shoulder and said with a smile, ”what are you afraid of? Is Lao Tzu not good to you? ”
The girl shivered back a good word.
Chen he pushed the man away, recalled the battle and said, ”I didn't want to do this. After all, your father is a great general. He has never seen a battle before, so he will not die casually. But who knows that he is really dead. To tell you the truth, I didn't believe it when I heard the news. When the news came back to the capital, the old emperor couldn't resist it, And then you get revenge for your father in the army, and I really believe it. ”
Zhou Leping only knew that her father died in the war. Everyone thought so at that time. She felt that this was the truth, but Chen he seemed to have something else to say.
The reaction on Zhou Leping's face was very different from what Chen he expected. He could not help feeling disappointed and fell back into his chair. He said listlessly, ”your reaction is not the same as what I imagined. Don't you believe me? Don't worry. I don't have to cheat you even now. Your father's death has a lot to do with me. ”
Zhou Leping almost broke a tooth, but there was still no big reaction on his face.
Chen he felt bored and didn't show off any more. Thinking of revenge today, he felt relaxed and said, ”after your father helped us to the military camp, we had nowhere to go, so we stayed nearby all the time. Later, someone came to see us...”
He looked up at the roof and said in a vindictive tone, ”he was a Xianyu man. He gave us money and asked us to set up for your father. At that time, he was poor. He needed money to go back to the capital. He couldn't eat any food, so he agreed.”
”You also accept the money from Xianyu people. Thanks to the righteous attitude you just said, I thought you were so noble. You were the one who collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country. You just had the face to say my father!” She finally had some reaction. Chen he was very happy and went on to say, ”we are all old subordinates of your father. We are very familiar with him. At that time, just after the first World War, your father saved a Xianyu woman. That woman... If I remember correctly, it should be as big as you at that time.”“ I don't know if I think of you when I see that woman. Anyway, your father is very kind to her, but he doesn't know that woman is the work of Xianyu people. Who will defend a teenage girl who has no power to bind a chicken? So that girl easily steals the topographic map and just meets me when she runs away. ”“ Then I killed the girl, sent her body to the barracks, and returned the topographic map. Your father was very moved at that time. He praised me and let me leave. ” Chen he said, ”I know your father very well. He believed me, so the military defense deployment didn't change. But he never thought that I would draw a new one and give it to Xianyu people. Then your father was ambushed. I was watching on the mountain at that time. It was a tragedy to die!” Zhou Leping's eyes were scarlet, and his fingers made a ”click” sound. His eyes were about to crack, and he glared at him, ”it's you, it's you who betrayed my father!”
