Chapter 168 Martyrdom
Now that the Zhao family was beheaded, except for Zhao Shuxue, who was missing, all of Shuxiang's relatives died in this national mourning.

No matter how calm she is usually, but in this situation, she really couldn't bear the cruel blow, so she took two or three steps back, pretending to be calm and stabilizing the corner of the table.

The people who were discussing naturally didn't have time to pay attention to her, because they then went on to discuss other things.

The topic quickly changed to Shi Zi, and Shu Xiang reluctantly cheered up.That's right, son, Zhao Zheng will be fine.And Jin Le, that is her only friend in Zhao country.

"You must be very curious about why the prince died for the country?" A man sat among the crowd, knocking on melon seeds and said slowly.

Shuxiang, who was originally relieved, opened his eyes wide when he said this sentence.

How could Zhao Zheng die for his country?Even if the country is destroyed, the prince doesn't have to die for the country, right?

That person is like a storyteller, speaking in an unhurried manner.

"Think about that day, when Zhao Guocheng broke Zhao Guo's son, he changed into plain white clothes, and committed suicide by taking poison in the imperial concubine's bedroom."

"Then what about the crown prince?" asked the uninformed person.

"The concubine Shizi died of illness long before the city was destroyed. She let the palace servants hide it from the prince, and then bribed the palace servants. She colluded with the mother's family and the palace servants to cremate her. The prince never cared about the princess concubine. The palace servants said that she was sick. , he also believed it. So he found out after the concubine Shizi died of illness more than ten days later."

The man sighed, as if he was talking about Shizi's frivolity, and also seemed to be talking about Shizi's concubine's infatuation.

Shuxiang listened silently, opened her eyes wide in disbelief, blinked but at the next moment Douda's tears fell down.

Kam Le...

"Girl, why are you crying?" Someone next to her asked her.

Scholar pretended to be calm and raised her hand, and decisively wiped away the remaining tears on her face, "Maybe I feel a little bit worthless for the concubine."

Really not worth it.

If she hadn't fallen in love with such a man, there would be a better way, and many people would love her well. She could have lived her life well.

Such a girl who loves to laugh, the smile when I first saw her is vivid in my memory.

"After all, it's worth it." Someone answered.

Scholar looked up blankly, not understanding what this meant.

He went on to explain: "What happened later can be regarded as a period of romance about why the son died for the country."

"The eldest son, Zhao Zheng, was a flirtatious man. He originally wanted to marry the third lady of the Zhao family, who is now the princess concubine. Later, he married a girl from the Dongfang family, who is Dongfang Jinle."

He paused, helping Shuxiang review the past and the past at this moment.

"After Zhao Zheng found out about the concubine's death, he heard that he sat in the bedroom for three days and three nights without eating or drinking. After the city was destroyed, he went to Dongfang's house to ask for Dongfang Jinle's ashes before he died of poison. The Dongfang family naturally wouldn't give it, seeing that the city was about to fall, he took the poison with Dongfang Jinle's spirit seat in his arms."

The man sighed, took a sip of tea, and looked at everyone with a sigh.

"That's a little consolation."

"Perhaps the prince also likes the concubine?"

In fact, it doesn't matter whether he likes her or not. The most important thing is that Jin Le died of illness.

He might blame himself, feel sad, or feel annoyed if he didn't tell Shizi half of it.

But like it, it is too difficult to accept.Of course, maybe there is a little bit that I like, but that is only a little bit.

People are gone, so what if I like it?
