138:
Chen Yaozhong is the most outstanding general of Jing State. He has only loved one woman and followed one king in his life. Later, the woman he loved died of dystocia after giving birth. The color of her face was very heavy. Chen Yaozhong named his child Chen Mu'ai. Not long after the child was born, he went to the battlefield. The situation was turbulent. As a general, he inevitably spent more time and energy on state affairs, leaving only his back to Chen Mu'ai who grew up alone.
Eighteen years later, Chen Muai grew up. He was not close to his father, spoke little, had a cold face, and practiced shooting alone most of the time. Chen Yaozhong always told him that heroes emerge in troubled times, and men should serve their country and take their country as their responsibility. Chen Muai remembered this sentence and led his troops to the battlefield at the age of eighteen.
He was a young talent. Even at a young age, he could rely on his outstanding military strength and flexible battlefield command to defeat the enemy and win battle after battle. However, no one expected that Chen Mu'ai would be injured and captured during the battle with Qing, the strongest rival of Jing, and quickly betrayed his country and served the enemy.
Chen Yaozhong didn't believe his son would do such a thing, so he led the army to fight Chen Muai in person, only to find that his son had indeed betrayed the country. He angrily asked Chen Muai, "Why?"
Chen Mu'ai only said three words calmly, "I hate you."
Chen Yaozhong was puzzled. Chen Muai was riding on a horse. The young man was holding a sharp blade. There was pride and hatred in his eyes, but his tone was calm. He said, "In your eyes, there is only this country, not me. In this case, I will destroy this country and let you see my strength."
Chen Yaozhong was shocked and angry. He stabbed at Chen Mu'ai with his spear, but was stopped by Chen Mu'ai. The father and son fought, and Chen Mu'ai was finally defeated and returned to his own camp injured.
In order to wake up his rebellious son, Chen Yaozhong repeatedly asked the king to lead the army to attack Qing State, but was stopped by the king every time. When Qing State attacked again, Chen Muai led the army again. Chen Yaozhong asked him in front of the battle, "Do you know your mistake?"
Chen Mu'ai said disdainfully, "What's wrong with that?"
The battle was about to start. Even though Chen Mu'ai was a young talent, he could not defeat Chen Yaozhong, who had been a soldier for half his life. Chen Yaozhong had no intention of killing him, but the sword had no eyes, and the spear accidentally stabbed into Chen Mu'ai's chest. He looked at his father, his eyes were calm, as if he had something to say, but he seemed to have nothing to say. He died on the battlefield, and died in Chen Yaozhong's heart.
However, what no one knew was that Chen Mu'ai did not actually commit treason. Before he sent troops to Qing State, his monarch had a secret talk with him, hoping that he could go to the enemy country as an insider, and after understanding the situation in the enemy country, kill Zhongxian and keep others, thus plunging the enemy country into chaos.
Chen Muai remembered his father's teachings to him - a man should serve his country and take his family and country as his own responsibility. He agreed without hesitation. He quickly thought of the reasons for his treason and planned how to make his treason reasonable. To this end, he pretended to be defeated and captured, and for this, he fabricated unfounded hatred. He suffered a lot in Qing State and took great pains to gain the trust of the other king, and dutifully passed the enemy's intelligence to his own monarch.
When Chen Mu'ai accepted the mission and left, his king asked him, "This journey is extremely dangerous. You may die in the enemy's country. Is there anything you want me to convey to your father?"
Chen Mu'ai thought for a long time and said softly, "Tell him that I have never hated him and I am proud of him."
However, things are unpredictable. The king who entrusted the task to Chen Mu'ai died of a sudden illness. At the moment of his death, he wanted to tell Chen Yaozhong this sentence, but Chen Yaozhong was fighting with Chen Mu'ai and had no time to return to the royal city. He opened his mouth, but before he could tell the prince this sentence, he passed away.
At that moment, Chen Yaozhong stabbed the gun into Chen Mu'ai's chest.
At the end of the script, the prince succeeded to the throne and successfully led Jing to defeat Qing based on the information his father got from Chen Mu'ai. In the national celebration, all the subjects cheered for the new king and Chen Yaozhong, and cursed Chen Mu'ai for betraying his country. Chen Yaozhong, in his afternoon rest, somehow remembered the scene of Chen Mu'ai practicing martial arts with him when they were young.
Chen Mu'ai was still very young at that time. The spear in his hand was taller than himself. He looked at the spear with confusion in his eyes.
Chen Yaozhong told him, "This is your weapon. In the future, you will become a general and use it to defend your country."
Young Chen Mu'ai did not understand the meaning of this sentence. He just looked at the spear in his hand and nodded obediently.
Chen Yaozhong touched his head, his eyes full of tenderness.
After reading the script, Ji Qingzhou was a little emotional. When he was a teenager watching TV, he found that all undercover agents would be vindicated in the end and receive their own honors. However, Ji Qingzhou also thought, what if they died in the middle of the process? Or what if their superiors had an accident? Then wouldn't they live in eternal curses?
The heroes in public are bright and beautiful, and are loved by everyone when they get the honors they deserve; but what about the heroes in secret? They cannot even explain when they are misunderstood or insulted. Who can understand their suffering? The human heart is the most unpredictable and unknown. He may do things that hurt others and are despised by others easily on the surface, but he tosses and turns every night because of the torment in his heart.
Ji Qingzhou firmly believed that in the long history, there must be people who gave up their positive image, dedicated themselves and remained unknown until their death. Unexpectedly, today, I really saw such a story.
