Chapter 109 - Kangmai 2

It was snowing heavily outside, so Kang An brought his mother home!

As the steward of the Managed, Kang An's salary was not low, so his place was naturally not bad either! There were a lot of gold and silver equipment in the room, and the kang in the room was clean. An embroidered quilt was placed on the kang, and there were a few maids waiting on the side!

Kang An supported his mother and helped her sit on the brick bed. He was all smiles as he asked, "Mother, have you really recovered? Are you feeling better today? "

Kangmai was a woman in her seventies with a face full of wrinkles. It seems that the Kangmai has an extremely high status in this family, her son must be abnormally obedient to her!

At this time, Kangmai nodded her head and said: "My body is completely recovered now, I am no longer as heavy as before! Thank you, Wang Zhenren! However, you went to see the Wang Zhenren today, and the presents you brought were too few! Tomorrow, you can go prepare another generous gift, and then pay respects to the Wang Zhenren to express your gratitude! "

Kang An said: "Yes! I will definitely pay my respects to Wang Zhenren again tomorrow! But for Mother to be able to recover, I still need to thank Your Majesty! "

Kangmai was startled, and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty? "What's going on?"

Kang An hesitated for a while, but first he chased the few maids in the room out, and then he said: "Wang Zhenren is cultivating in the Changchun View, and has not taken in any patients for the past few months! When I heard that Wang Zhenren was treating His Majesty back then, his own body was injured, so I had no choice but to do this! I didn't expect Wang Zhenren to treat Mother initially, but after His Majesty found out about this matter, he gave me his jade pendant, saying that he could rely on this jade pendant to get Wang Zhenren to help! Thus, I brought mother to see Wang Zhenren! Wang Zhenren treated Mother's illness because of Your Majesty! "

Kangmai was enlightened, and said: "So that's how it is! Thank you, your majesty! "

As she spoke, she knelt on the brick bed and kowtowed nine times in the direction of the imperial palace!

After a while, Kangmai said, "When you are working in the Imperial Palace, you must be diligent! This time, Your Majesty and Wang Zhenren have saved my life, so you must repay Your Majesty for your kindness! "

Kang An nodded: "Yes! Mother, rest assured! "

The two talked for a while, then the Kangmai said: "There is a rumor that His Majesty has been working in the palace as a carpenter all day, is that true?"

Kang An was startled, and said: "It's true!"

Kangmai frowned, and said: "How can that be? His Majesty was the Emperor, he was the Son of Heaven. He should be managing the affairs of the kingdom and the world in the palace. How could he be a carpenter in the palace? Kang An, when you meet the emperor tomorrow, you must advise him otherwise and tell him not to do these things again! You must let His Majesty put his mind to national affairs! Your Majesty has done us a great favor, and we, the Kang Family, cannot just sit by and watch your Majesty become a flabbergasted monarch! "

Hesitation appeared on Kang An's face and he did not answer Kangmai's question for a long time.

Kangmai had thought that she would soon hear her son's reply, but when she turned her head, she discovered her son sitting there in a daze. Kangmai said: "What happened? You don't want to do this? "

"Son … "Son …" Kang An's mouth was agape, he did not know how to answer Kangmai.

"Are you worried that after admonishing His Majesty, you will enrage His Majesty and hurt your career, so you are not willing to do such a thing?" Kangmai said.

"Mother, it's not like that!" Kang An anxiously said.

"Then why?" Kangmai said.

"This …" Kang An was still speechless.

"Tell me quickly!" Kangmai frowned, and shouted.

"Sigh!" His Majesty was an extremely good person. He cared for his subordinates and loved them! He never had any airs in front of us guards. He was always pleasant to us! He knew that mother was gravely ill and immediately ordered me to bring you to see Wang Zhenren! " Kang An sighed.

"If so, why are you unwilling to remonstrate with His Majesty? "Did you just watch His Majesty become a carpenter and leave behind the name of the unconscious monarch for all eternity?" Kangmai said.

Kang An hesitated for a long time before saying, "Your majesty was not like this in the past!"

"Oh? Then why did His Majesty become like this now? " Kangmai said.

"This eunuch deserves to die, for he has brought calamity upon the people!" Kang An, you should kill this eunuch. "Then you can remonstrate with His Majesty!" Kangmai said.

"I'm afraid I can't do this!" Kang An hesitated again, and said.

"Why?" Kangmai asked.

"Mother, that eunuch was brought into the palace by Master Fold Zhe Keqiu! The reason why eunuchs bewitched His Majesty was because … That was also at the behest of Master Fold Zhe Keqiu! Even if it's your son, he's ordered by the Master Fold to keep an eye on your majesty every single day. If your majesty has any movements, I have to report it to the Master Fold! Master Fold cannot tolerate for His Majesty to become an enlightened Monarch! Master Fold is extremely ambitious, he wants to be a scammer! " Kang An said.

"What!" Kangmai was stunned!

"Mother, we owe the Master Fold a debt of gratitude as well! Back then, your son was just an ordinary soldier, but because the Master Fold had set his eyes on a martial arts master, he was promoted step by step, until he became the manager of the Managed. Mother, Master Fold has given me the order, I have no choice but to obey! " Kang An said.

"You are being disloyal!" Kangmai said after a long while.

"I was forced to!" Kang An said.

"Bastard!" Loyalty was the root of human nature! You and Zhe Keqiu are His Majesty's subjects, yet you're plotting against him, and even luring him down the wrong path! Now that I hear you say it, you still have some reason! " Kangmai said.

"Master Fold forced me to do this!" Kang An said.

"He forced you to be unfaithful to His Majesty today, and you did it!?" In the future, if he forced you to be unfilial towards your mother, would you have done the same? " Kangmai said.

"How could Mother think that? I absolutely do not dare to be unfilial to my mother! " Kang An anxiously said. flustered

"Since ancient times, loyal subjects will be filial to their children! If you are not a loyal official, how can you become a filial son? Since ancient times, it has always been said that the Emperor's father was his father. The Emperor was like a father to the Emperor, if one could not be loyal to the Emperor, how could one be filial to the Emperor's parents? " Kangmai trembled.

"This... "This..." Kang An stood there in a daze, not knowing how to answer!

"You can leave now. From now on, don't ever come into this house again! "From now on, I will treat you as my son!" The Kangmai said resolutely.

"Mother! It can't be like this! It can't be like this! " Kang An was shocked, he kneeled on the ground and cried.

He did not expect that in just a few words, his mother would kick him out of the house! He was a well-known filial son of the Northwest and had never disobeyed his mother before. At this moment, his mother's words were too much for him to bear!

In the eyes of the Kangmai, she was completely disappointed in her son! Loyalty was the origin of the ancient people. It was the starting point of the ancient people's morality! She felt that her son couldn't be as loyal to the Emperor as those bandits who killed and set fire to everything! She had never thought that after painstakingly raising her eldest son, he would actually become an unloyal person!

At this moment, Kang An was on the ground kowtowing nonstop, crying loudly, "Mother, please take back what you just said!"

Kangmai was silent for a long time, then she said: "You are not loyal to His Majesty, how could I dare to keep a son like you by my side? If Zhe Keqiu orders you to kill me, if you really kill me, what will I do? "

Kang An cried: "How can I do such a thing?"

Kangmai only shook her head!

Kang An said: "Mother, this Master Fold is our benefactor! I have been in the Master Fold for more than ten years, and now you want me to betray the Master Fold, your son is in a difficult situation! "

Kangmai said: Zhe Keqiu is but a small favor to us, we don't need this small favor to live on! He was loyal to the king, but he was loyal to the king! For the sake of a small favor, you actually forgot about righteousness.

At this moment, the Kangmai was also tearing up!

"Son … Son … We shall follow Mother's teachings! " After a long while, Kang An finally spoke.

"Good, good, good! Hurry up! Hurry up! " Hearing that his son had finally agreed, and seeing his son's forehead swell up, Kangmai felt gratified and pained at the same time.

Kang An stood up, but he was still hesitant, and did not dare look at Kangmai!

"What is it? You still don't want to? "Are you just trying to put me off?" Kangmai frowned and said.

"Mother, this …" Although I am the manager of the Managed, all the guards of the Managed are completely loyal to the Master Fold! If I betray the Master Fold, I'm afraid I won't be able to escape death, and at that time, even Mother wouldn't be able to escape death! " Kang An said.

"You can disregard justice for your own life? The Saints had said that killing one's own life was the best way to sacrifice one's own life for righteousness! It's more important than our lives! " Kangmai said.

"But... This child does not hesitate to die, if mother was also killed by Master Fold, this child will definitely not accept it! " Kang An said.

"Come here!" The Kangmai said that after being silent for a long time.

Kang An then had no choice but to go to Kangmai's side. Kangmai looked at him for a while and then suddenly took off his shirt! Kang An was shocked, he did not know what the Kangmai was trying to do! However, he was a filial man. Even though he was confused, he didn't ask, nor did he resist!

It was snowing outside, and the weather was unusually cold! Although there was a furnace in the room, when Kang An took off his clothes, his back was exposed, causing him to shiver uncontrollably!

Kangmai took out a needle from her sewing box and bit down on it. Then, she stabbed it into Kang An's back!

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Kang An let out a scream! At this moment, he couldn't help but ask, "Mother, what do you want to do?"

The Kangmai didn't answer, she only used a needle to begin piercing words on Kang An's back! After a long while, the Kangmai finally stopped! At this moment, Kang An's back was already covered in blood.

"Mother, what word did you stab into your child's back?" Kang An asked.

"Only four words!" Kangmai said.

"Which four words?" Kang An said.

"Slayer the thief!" Kangmai said.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Kang An was stunned!

"Seeing that you are hesitating, and seemingly unwilling to betray Zhe Keqiu, I can only use this move! Now that you have these four words on your back, if Zhe Keqiu were to find out, he would definitely kill you and his mother! Now, you can only wholeheartedly support the Emperor. Hopefully, the Emperor will be able to kill Zhe Keqiu and the traitors in the future. Kangmai said.

"This …" Kang An wanted to cry, but no tears came out!

He just sat there in a daze, not saying a word!

After a long while, his face revealed a bitter smile, and said: "Mother, Master Fold has over a hundred thousand soldiers, and all the civil and military ministers listen to him! His Majesty is only 11 years old and has no soldiers or generals, how can he go against the Master Fold? "

Kangmai said: "Then, you shall secretly help your majesty! Don't openly oppose Zhe Keqiu! His Majesty is the Son of Heaven, with billions of blessings of the Divine Buddha, he can definitely kill Zhe Keqiu! "

Kang An laughed bitterly: "Mother, you have stabbed these words into my body. Right now, other than helping His Majesty, I have no other choice! "Sigh!"

He frowned, but Kangmai beside him only had a face full of smiles! Kangmai felt that she had allowed her son on the "right path", and thus she was happy in her heart!

That night, Kangmai slept soundly, while Kang An did not sleep at all! Before the sky brightened, Kang An had already arrived at the Imperial Palace!

When Zhao Chen woke up in the morning, he first watched the snowy scenery for a while, then continued to be a carpenter!

When noon arrived, Zhao Chen seemed to be a little tired, thus he returned to his room and lied down for a while.

When he got up, the snow outside was getting heavier! Zhao Chen was playing with the two puppies in the snow while the guards by the side watched the laughter by the side.

Kang An had been watching him from afar, looking for an opportunity to talk to Zhao Chen alone!

When the sky turned dark, Zhao Chen once again returned to Dry Clear Palace. He was sitting in front of the stove, when Kang An suddenly flashed in!

Kang An knelt down abruptly!
