Chapter 1168 1168: Prisoner's Dilemma (Part 1) [Please vote]
"Is this why he refused to go back for so many years?"
Gu Chi thought of Kang Shi who was alone during the holidays, I couldn't help but sigh, as if I had recognized another healthy time. He didn't expect that Kang Jishou, who usually deceived the lord without blinking an eye and seemed heartless, also had an unspeakable painful past behind his back.
He also fully understood the meaning of Kang Shi's words just now.
Kang Shi believed that he had defeated his father and brother when he was young, and now that he wanted to defeat Yu Zi, the psychological impact was naturally incalculable. Obviously after so many years, it is only the Lord who has experienced ups and downs. People around him occasionally have misfortune but it does not harm their lives. He may have thought that he could be like a normal person. The reality now gave Kang Shi a fatal blow.
He seems to be the reincarnation of the plague god.
This time it’s Yu Zi, who will it be next time?
Whoever he gets close to will bring bad luck to that person.
Kang Nian said: "Ji Shou thought so."
He also thought so back then.
The doctor said that the second brother's knife probably missed the mark, and that the wound could be saved if it was stopped in time. However, when he heard that his father had died, the second brother's wound collapsed, and despite repeated rescue efforts, he still died. Kang Nian couldn't even remember how he spent those days. Looking back now, he only remembers the chaos, crying and screaming, and the whole family was on their backs...
The source of all this is Kang Shi, his four younger brother.
If Ji Shou had not defeated his wife, his father would not have been so angry that he was injured, his second brother would not have died, and the family would not have had two white affairs in a row.
Kang Nian not only thought this, he also said it.
When Kang Shi angrily wanted to lead people to kill the opponent's entire family, Kang Nian's head exploded with buzzing, and he lost control of his emotions. He raised his hand to slap Kang Shi and blurted out a question. Every time he thought about it after that, Kang Nian wished he could go back in time and chop off his right hand.
His original intention was clearly not to accuse Kang Shi.
He was just worried that Kang Shi would get involved, and that Xiaozong and other local aristocratic families would join forces to carve up his family if it was not handled properly this time. He just wanted Kang Shi to calm down and the three brothers to support each other through this difficulty, but he couldn't control it.
Kang Shi lost his father and brother, so why didn’t he lose his father and his twin brothers? Is Kang Jishou the only one who has the right to vent his nonsense? Kang Nian regretted the slap, but held on without apologizing. He ordered people to keep Kang Shi under surveillance and not allow him to go out and cause trouble during the funeral. Not long after, Kangshi ran away from home.
Gu Chi couldn't help but feel sorry for Kang Shi.
“But this is too unreasonable. The first baby girl was born with a weak heart, so her family took good care of her if she lived to seven years old, and her death was expected. The second baby girl was born with a weak heart. The third one sounds unreasonable. How can the elderly elders in the family not have headaches? Can this be regarded as his wife's defeat? Not to mention the fourth one's elopement, the fifth one is even more tricked..."
No matter how you look at it, Kang Cai was the one who was taken advantage of.
What others say is falsely accusing him of his reputation.
Gu Chi holds a grudge very much.
"The fifth woman's father and brother are the culprits, and their family didn't pay the price? Kang Jishou is so kind?"
This hatred is placed on himself, and he must destroy the other party's family.
Kang Nian said: "Before Ji Shou ran away from home, he found an opportunity to kill the head of the family and the eldest son."
It is not too difficult to kill the father and son.
The eldest son of a dandy has been hanging out in brothels all year round. In order not to affect the pleasure-seeking experience, he often only brings two or three servants with him, and all the guards are sent away. Kang Shi went over in advance to squat on the person and hang him to death with a rope. The head of the family was lured out with the help of his friends and waited for an opportunity to kill him. That family also experienced the chaos of Kang's year, but Kang Nian was merciless.
Gu Chi lamented that Kang Shi was still kind.
“Only kill the father and son?”
Kang Nian said: "Ji Shou doesn't know how to cut the grass and root out the roots."
It's okay if he doesn't understand, as long as he understands.
Gu Chi, who heard this emotion clearly: "..."
Well, the seemingly innocuous patriarch of the Kang family in front of him is also a ruthless person. He is not a ruthless person, and he cannot adopt his daughter to Qi Yuanliang. He is indeed cold-blooded. Gu Chi concealed his surprise very well: "Brother Bo Sui is here this time?"
Kang Nian said: "I received a letter from Ji Shou's family."
He paused, his eyes seemed to be misty.
Can’t bear to continue talking.
When he appeared here, he prepared for the worst and collected the body of his younger brother. If anything happens, it's better to help the spirit go back and let Kangshi return to his roots and rest next to his father and brother's tomb.
Gu Chi sighed: "Good people have their own destiny."
After saying that, he found that this sentence of relief was a bit of a joke.
Kang Shi's bad luck had nothing to do with "lucky people".
Kang Nian twitched his lips twice and said goodbye. Gu Chi did not stop him this time. Seeing Kang Nian heading straight towards Kang Shi's camp, Gu Chi also found someone to discuss countermeasures. As everyone knows, the Kang brothers quarreled again. The commotion was so loud that Qi Miao, who came after hearing the news, was also startled. Two familiar male voices were arguing with each other, full of passion.
Actually, there was no noise at first.
Kang Nian felt heartbroken when he saw his lost brother.
Kang Shi wrote vaguely at home and did not say why he wanted it. When Kang Nian learned the whole story from him, he immediately became furious and grabbed Kang Shi's wrist with such force that it almost crushed the opponent's bones: "Kang Ji Shou, do you still have a heart?"
Kang Shi frowned in pain: "Brother, what are you talking about?"
"If you are serious, how can you be willing to let Sanlang and I lose another sibling? You are not seriously ill, let alone have committed a heinous crime! "The indifference and determination on Kangnian's face are heart-wrenching. Shocked, he threw away Kang Shi's wrist and spoke as fast as a summer rainstorm, so fast that he could hardly hear clearly, "You don't want to live! But you can obviously live! You can go further!"
Yu Zi’s way of being a scribe is [evil purple to seize vermillion].
In her consummation ceremony, Yu Zi herself was the passive defensive [Zhu], while Kang Jishou was the [Evil Purple].
Yu Zi must die!
The way of the scribes in the Kang Dynasty was to "lose every bet".
In his consummation ceremony, Yu Zi is the gambler sitting across from him at the gambling table. He will definitely lose and die when he is healthy!
Only one of the two can survive.
Not only can he survive, but he can also be a perfect scribe.
What’s the result?
Kang Jishou actually asked him to come over and collect his body!
Obviously there was a way to survive, but he actually chose to die!
Kang Shi suddenly opened his eyes wide, as if he couldn't believe that these words would come out of his brother's mouth. He didn't even notice that his voice was trembling, and there was disappointment in the trembling: "I am the one who is responsible for this. Weiheng! If it weren’t for me, she would be perfect This will not happen, let alone die! How could I let her..."
Kang Nian said decisively: "Then let her die!"
Kang Shi's face turned pale. , gritted his teeth: "Brother!"
Kang Nian avoided the silent question in Kang Shi's eyes and hardened his heart: "Kang Jishou, remember, you are a descendant of the Kang family, my younger brother, and a member of the Kang family! You actually want to take the initiative to give up your life, the Kang family, and the Kang family?" Your blood relative...how could you be so cruel, so what if it's your fault? ? Your life is more important to me than an outsider! You are really going to die. How are you going to explain to your father how you died?"
Kang Shi was disappointed: "Brother, you are going to die. Not such a person! ”
This should not be such a person!
Kang Nian said with a cold face: "You have admitted your mistake, as my brother has always been like this! The head of the Kang family cannot understand your so-called love and sex choice, I only know that you don't have to die! I just Knowing that 'there are people but no one', does the truth disappoint you?"
Kang Shi's fists tightened and loosened, and then tightened again.
"Brother, maybe it was a mistake to let you come here!"
Kang Nian sneered and said: "Kang Jishou, don't force me to do it! Even if you say a thousand words and ten thousand, the life and death of others have nothing to do with you!"
Kang Shi was so angry that he lost his mind. He was about to say something like "We don't agree with each other", but unexpectedly, an old and powerful sneer came from outside the tent: "Haha, what a saying, 'What does the life and death of others have to do with you'! Indeed, whether his Kang family will die or not, it will not matter to us. What does the person named Yu have to do with it?"
Kang Nian shouted: "Who is outside!"
Kang Shi had already recognized the identity of the owner of the voice.
I suddenly felt extremely unbearable and ashamed.
“I am the great-uncle of the ‘other people’ in your words!” With one hand he opened the curtain of the camp tent, and with the other hand he pushed away Qi Miao who wanted to come forward to persuade him, his face covered with a layer of frost. . From the looks of it, he is middle-aged at most, and his appearance is somewhat similar to Yu Zi.
He took the initiative to report to his home, and Kangnian was shocked.
Kang Shi stepped forward and saluted the middle-aged scribe.
The other party sided away and said sarcastically: "I can't stand it, I can't stand it. I am a humble official, so how can I bear the gift of your majestic Minister of Justice? The conversation between you two brothers reminded me. One by one, your Kang family, the house The population is quite prosperous, and one more death will not hurt our vitality. , just die, I can't do it. I have no wife, no children, no daughter, only Wei Heng is the descendant of my twin brother, and she is the only bloodline of my twin brothers. In terms of preciousness, she is more precious than your fourth child, Kang Jishou. It’s much more precious.”
Kang Jishou will die.
The middle-aged scholar squinted his eyes at Kang Nian, and when he saw the other man's dignified appearance, he sighed: "We can't let the old Yu family lose their incense."
After speaking, he said to Kang Nian: " You lose anyway It’s been half of my life, and I won’t lose the Perfection Ceremony again, right?”
No matter what other people say about Yu Zi’s temperament, his Weiheng family is one of the best in the world!
Kang Jishou?
Who is this god of plague?
After that, the middle-aged scribe walked away.
Before leaving, he sneered and left a warning: "I'm just leaving my ugly words here. Even if Weiheng dies and Kang Jishou lives, I will still have a way to make his life worse than death. If you don't believe it, , you brothers can go ask Chu Wuhui and ask him if I am a vegetarian in my way of being a scribe!"
For a while, the whole hall was silent.
Qi Miao watched the middle-aged scribe leave.
When the other party disappeared, Qi Miao exhaled turbid air.
Suppressing the thoughts in my heart, I stepped forward to greet the two elders. She called Kang Nian her uncle and Kang Shi her uncle. Kangnian had long been accustomed to this title, but when he thought of the current situation, he felt indescribable in his heart - as Qi Miao's most respected biological father, he was actually seen by the other party with such an unbearable and unkind side. This made Kangnian's headache even worse.
Kang Shi smiled reluctantly.
“Why is Miaoer here?”
Qi Miao looked towards the screen.
He hesitated and said: "My nephew came to see Weiheng."
Kangnian's body stiffened suddenly. He did not even realize that there was a fourth person in the camp, and he was also the person involved. one.
At this time, the atmosphere was so solid that it was hard to breathe.
Qi Miao carried the medical box, bowed slightly and went to the back.
Kang Shi coughed and sighed: "Brother...Kang family head, let me make my own decision. I am indeed a member of the Kang family. I have never been married and have never separated from my brother, so I cannot make the decision. But..."
He said with a firm voice: "I am also Kang Shi."
No one else can stop me from staying or leaving.
His life should not be controlled by others.
Kangnian's face was as gloomy as water, and he waved his sleeves and said, "As you wish!"
Not mentioning that when I received the letter from home, my thoughts went blank like a bolt from the blue, followed by endless grief and despair. He also knew that it was useless to mention it. The wrong slap back then and the wrong words now have created an unhealable rift between their brothers: "I have brought your coffin. You can bury it wherever you want later."
He only thinks that he only has a younger brother, Saburo.
Looking at Kang Nian's embarrassed back, which was stumbling, Kang Shi had mixed feelings and his emotions were complicated and unclear. Yu Zi's hoarse voice came from behind the screen: "That's just human nature."
We are all ordinary people with flaws, why should we be measured by the requirements of a saint?
Yu Zi deeply agrees with Kang Nian’s words.
"Kang Jishou, did you tell me what you said to your brother on purpose?" Yu Zi's hoarse voice brought an unfriendly smile, which was as vague as a fine needle, but it was real when it was penetrated. It will be painful, "How can you trick me into being soft-hearted?"
The next breath, Qi Miao behind the screen took a breath of air.
She was anxious and worried now.
"Fourth uncle is not such a person..."
Yu Zi responded lightly: "Oh."
Kang Shi knew that Kang Nian's words really irritated Yu Zi. It was normal for her to be angry, and she had no strength to argue. After a while, he left a sentence: "Weiheng, you should have a good rest."
Her future will be smooth.
Yu Zi said: "Actually, there is another way."
Kang Shi's footsteps suddenly stopped.
Yu Zi smiled and said: "It's okay if one person is useless, but this person will definitely not be me. I can't give up my ability to continue climbing for the sake of 'other people' who don't even love myself..." ”
"This method is not feasible."
Yu Zi said: "Then there is no other way."
Gu Chi could not find a countermeasure from his colleagues and returned without success.
Shen Tang looked at Gu Chi who had left and returned, thinking that this guy was coming to rub her again after eating Tao Zi: "I don't have any more Tao Zi here."
Gu Chi choked Commented: "How can I still be in the mood to eat peaches right now?"
"Tsk, I don't even like Tao anymore. It seems like something big has happened. Come on, tell me and let me have some fun."
Gu Chi: "..."
< br>He is truly blessed to have such a Lord.
He took a few deep breaths before asking.
"How does the Lord plan to deal with Ji Shou and his wife?"
Shen Tang's hand paused while reviewing the memorial.
Gu Chi said in a deep voice: "If either of them breaks, it will be a huge loss. If you can save it, try to save them all! If you really can't, you should save one of them, otherwise..."
“There is no choice to protect only one.”
Shen Tang lowered his head and criticized the memorial again.
"Does Wang Chao know about the 'Prisoner's Dilemma'? You should know. Smart people will also become trapped in a cocoon because of their cleverness. The probability of betrayal is much greater than mutual loyalty, not to mention life is at stake, as the old saying goes. , a dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist. The consummation ceremony is not only a test of the other party, but also a test of themselves. Either they both survive or both of them die. Only by seeing one's own heart clearly and controlling one's own humanity can one consider the Taoist heart to be perfect, right? It doesn’t work, there’s nothing you and I can do to help.”
