Chapter 328 Life for Life
Chapter 328 Life for Life
That day he happily moved into Xiaozhuyuan.
Because he had a great talent for martial arts, his brother specially opened a martial arts training ground in Xiaozhuyuan to facilitate his practice, and would watch him practice martial arts with a smile every day.
At that time, he told his brother that he would become a more powerful general than his grandfather and father in the future and would make sure that the enemy countries would never dare to invade Jin'an again.
He said that he would definitely help his brother become a minister who would go down in history as a great minister of the country.
He didn't know what his brother was thinking at that time, but after hearing what he said, his brother was obviously a little sad, but he soon calmed down and smiled gently as usual: "Okay, big brother, wait for that day."
But he didn't expect that his elder brother would never live to see that day.
Later, the emperor's suspicion of the Qin family grew day by day, and my aunt's situation as the queen became increasingly difficult in the harem. The emperor had already shown his intention to depose the queen, and even people related to the Qin family were ostracized in the court.
Just when his grandfather and father decided to hand over the military power, he was poisoned by Shi Wuyi.
Only if a close relative sacrifices his life in exchange for blood will there be a chance to save his life.
If he wants to die, then let him die. Anyway, he still has his brother. His brother is so smart and talented, he will definitely be able to revive the Qin family in the future.
"Xu Bai, I'm sorry, I can only leave the burden of the Qin family to you."
"You will certainly endure a lot of pain and suffering in the future, but you must promise me that no matter how difficult it is, you must live well with me in your heart..."
He tried desperately to struggle, but he couldn't move because of the poisoning. He could only watch his brother give him a blood transfusion, watch his brother's face become paler and paler, and watch his brother stop breathing in front of him.
Later he learned that his mother had been poisoned when she was pregnant with his eldest brother. His eldest brother would not have survived the so-called premature birth, but his life was barely saved because of the master's intervention.
However, the fetal poison was so severe that my eldest brother had been weak since childhood and was destined to not live past the age of twenty.
"So you gave up your elder brother and exchanged his life for mine?"
He questioned his grandfather and father with great anguish, and they acquiesced.
At that moment he really hated them, but he hated himself even more.
His life was saved, but the fatal pill not only destroyed his tendons and veins, causing him to lose all his martial arts skills, but also eroded his heart veins. He was destined to live shortly like his brother and could die at any time.
He thought it was a good idea this way, he didn't have to live with the guilt and self-blame towards his brother.
The master took him away from the capital to Shengyun Mountain and did everything he could to keep him alive.
He was weak and afraid of the cold, and was bedridden. Later, his legs lost sensation and he could not walk. He stayed in his room reading and writing every day. The young general who once roamed the army and rode a horse in fine clothes eventually became like his brother.
Every time the fatal pill took effect, it seemed to crush every bone in his body and cause him unbearable pain.
He thought about giving up more than once, but every time he would dream of his brother, in which he dreamed that his brother said sorry to him and asked him to live well with his share.
Even though this is a broken body, it was given to him by his brother in exchange for his own life. What right does he have to die?
So no matter how painful it was, he told himself to stay alive. Only by staying alive could he return to the capital to avenge himself and his brother.
At that time, he firmly believed that the person who gave him the fatal elixir was Emperor Qinglong. He was even prepared to risk the world's condemnation and overthrow the Jin'an Dynasty.
This is also the motivation that allows him to ignore the pain and survive.
This time when he returned to the capital, he was actually determined to destroy the Ye family and avenge his brother.
He knew that his master knew all his thoughts, but his master had never advised him or stopped him.
Later I understood that the reason why the master did not stop it was because he knew from the beginning that Emperor Qinglong was not the one who did it.
Xiaozhuyuan remained unchanged as before. Qin Xubai murmured, "Brother, I'm back."
Now that he is back, he will definitely uproot the Wei family and make the Shen family, which poisoned him, completely wiped out!
"Brother, you still have us!"
Looking at the worry in the little girl's clear eyes, Qin Xubai felt soft in his heart.
Yes, God has been kind to him. He has a master, a junior fellow apprentice, and Xiao Si.
Maybe his brother has always been protecting him.
Qin Xingchuan looked at his long-lost son with mixed feelings in his heart: "Xiaozhuyuan has been kept for you, just hoping that one day you can come home."
General Qin's voice was somewhat desolate: "Xu Yao will be happy that you can come back."
Qin Xubai sneered coldly: "Do you still care about my brother?"
If she really cared about him, she would not have abandoned her frail elder brother and chosen to keep him.
There was no way he could forgive them for abandoning his brother.
"Cousin, you misunderstood my grandfather and uncle!"
Ye Xuanqi really didn't want to see them being misunderstood by Qin Xubai all the time: "Grandfather and uncle didn't abandon my cousin back then. He knew his end was near so he decided to use his life to exchange for yours."
Qin Xubai's heart was shocked, and he looked at Ye Xuanqi: "What did you say?"
Ye Xuanqi sighed and told everyone what he had found out.
It was the Shen family who poisoned Madam Qin and caused Qin Xuyao to give birth prematurely, so they certainly knew that a sickly person like Qin Xuyao would not live long, and his existence posed no threat to the Shen family, or the Wei clan.
But Qin Xubai is different. He has shown his talent at a young age and is highly regarded by senior generals in the army. The young general in fine clothes and on a vigorous horse will surely continue to support General Dingguo's Mansion in the future, and the Qin Family Army will surely fall into his hands.
The Qin family has such an heir who can protect the peace in Jin'an, ensure the stability of the queen's position, and even become Ye Xuanqi's strongest helper. How can the Shen family sit still?
Therefore, it is imperative to get rid of Qin Xubai.
Qin Xingchuan was extremely loyal to his wife and never remarried even after her death for many years. His eldest son, Qin Xuyao, was dying, so as long as Qin Xubai was eliminated, the Qin family would have no successors and would no longer pose a threat to them.
So he just gave Qin Xu the fatal pill in vain back then.
What they didn't expect was that Qin Xuyao would really give up everything, even his life, for this younger brother whom he had raised and loved deeply.
However, when Qin Xuyao proposed the decision of blood transfusion, General Qin and his son decisively rejected it.
"Grandfather, father, I know I don't have much time left. It's worth it to use my life to exchange for Xu Bai's good life!"
General Qin was not shaken at all: "Xu Bai is the blood of the Qin family, and so are you! I can't sacrifice you for another grandson!"
"Master Song of Shengyun Mountain wants to accept Xu Bai as his disciple. I have sent him a letter to inform him that Xu Bai has been poisoned. He will definitely come to rescue him."
"Master Song's medical skills are unparalleled in the world. He will definitely be able to save Xu Bai!"
