"I've got it all down!" Zhao Jiu's nose was slightly sour when he heard this, but he managed to stop and continued to maintain a serious demeanor. "Your wife will be given an imperial decree no matter who she remarries. If you can't find your family in Yan'an Prefecture, you can go to your hometown to look for them... Don't worry, I'll promise you everything. As long as we can fight back, I will definitely find your family for you. I want to see them alive or dead! Not only you, but all your brothers on the boat today, I will do my best to give you a result!"
Zhang Yongzhen was finally relieved and a slight smile appeared on his face.
"Is there anything else to explain?" Zhao Jiu continued to ask.
"Official, Official." Zhang Yongzhen spoke again, but his breathing became shorter and faster, and there was a clear noise in his chest. "You, you are so, so generous to me and us... If I don't say something, I'm afraid, I'm afraid... I'm sorry for you... You, you lie down... Don't, don't let outsiders hear..."
Zhao Jiu quickly leaned over to listen.
Zhang Yongzhen suddenly used up all his strength, tightly grasped Zhao Jiu's hand, and whispered in the ear of the official Zhao with all his strength:
"I know that the government is trying to win people's hearts. I knew it from the beginning! I went crazy on the river today, not for you, the government, not because of loyalty, and not for any reward or grace... I, I just want to go home, I want to go home... I want to go crazy! Yes, I'm sorry..."
After saying this with all his might, Zhang Yongzhen just lay back, took two breaths, but before he could take the third breath, he died on the couch.
When Zhao Jiu heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he saw the other person die in front of him. For some reason, he felt as if something had smashed his heart and lungs, and he held the other person's hand. For a moment, tears could not be controlled and dripped down. Then he felt it difficult to breathe, so he simply let go of everything and cried wildly like a flood breaking through the floodgates!
It is said that countless Western Army officers and soldiers who came to watch outside the tent, as well as important civil and military officials who rushed over after hearing the news, wanted to go in to persuade them to stop crying. Yang Yizhong, who was closest to the tent, had even reached out to lift the tent curtain, but when they suddenly heard such unbridled crying behind them, they almost all stood still, and no one dared to step forward easily.
