Zhao Qi threw himself into Kou Qing's arms and gave Kou Qing a big hug.

Kou Qing was slightly stunned, and when Zhao Qi came out of his arms, he looked at Zhao Qi suspiciously.

Zhao Qi has always been a giggling, heartless little guy with a smile on his face.

But after more than five days of absence, the giggling, heartless Zhao Qi was gone, replaced by a heavy Zhao Qi.

It is a very strange thing for a young man to not see the vigorous vitality on his face.

Kou Qing wanted to ask, but Zhao Qi just shook his head and gave Kou Qing an ugly smile.

Seeing this, Kou Qing instantly closed his mouth.

Zhao Qi obviously knew what Kou Qing wanted to ask, but he obviously didn't want to say, and Kou Qing didn't want to ask.

Kou Qing took Zhao Qi into the carriage.

Liu Heng, who had been sitting in the carriage, saw Zhao Qi and teased with a smile, "Little guy, have you been hit?" ”

Zhao Qi smiled dryly: "It's okay......"

Through these words, Kou Qing probably guessed that Zhao Qi was in the Dao Palace, and he was probably experiencing some not very good things, so he became like this.

It's just that Zhao Qi didn't want to say it, and Kou Qing couldn't ask, so he could only guess blindly, or wait until Zhao Qi wanted to say it.

Kou Qing couldn't help but look at Chen Datou sitting on the wheel.

Maybe Chen Datou insisted on letting him leave that day, just because he didn't want him to see what Zhao Qi experienced later.

After all, Chen Datou, an old killer who has been sharpened on the battlefield, probably won't care about the life and death of these people in the Dao King's fiefdom.

In the name of saving the people in the Dao King's fiefdom, he urged Kou Qing to leave the Dao King's Palace, probably because of this.

A few days to come.

Kou Qing and Zhao Qi accompanied Liu Heng to sit in the carriage and rushed all the way to Liu's house.

Along the way, Zhao Qi was silent, revealing a preoccupied look.

Liu Heng and Kou Qing both pretended not to see it.

From time to time, Liu Heng told some interesting stories from the past to Kou Qing and Zhao Qi.

Most of them are the troubles of their ancestors and fathers.

After all, from childhood to adulthood, the glorious deeds of their ancestors and fathers are almost calloused, but almost no one mentions the troubles that their ancestors and fathers did not have in their ears.

Their ancestors are now superheroes hidden behind the scenes; Their parents are now the superbosses sitting in front of the stage.

Except for Liu Heng, probably no one dared to tell them about their ancestors and fathers.

Kou Qing and Zhao Qi listened to the troubles of their ancestors and fathers all the way, and Liu Heng also talked about being addicted, and when he came to his own land, he still had an unfinished look.

The Liu family's governance is the same as that of the Kou family in all respects.

The only difference is that there is no huge wharf on the land of Liujiazhi, only a huge carriage market.

In other respects, it is almost the same as the land ruled by the Kou clan, and even the legal provisions on the fiefdom are all copied from the land ruled by the Kou family.

Kou Qing asked Liu Heng very suspiciously, why the Liu family's fiefdom did not develop its own characteristics.

Liu Heng's answer was simple.

There are not many smart people in the Liu family now, just the Liu family is enclosed in the Yang Kingdom, which is not enough, not to mention the outside governance.

Since smart people are not enough, they can only use stupid methods and directly apply Kou's things.

Kou Qing didn't know what to think, but he actually said to Liu Heng, "If the Liu family does this, it will be easy for the Kou family to digest the Liu family's fief in the future." ’

After Kou Qing finished speaking, he regretted it.

He thought that Liu Heng would be furious, but he didn't expect that Liu Heng not only didn't get angry, but said to Kou Qing with a smile, "After your kid takes charge of the Qing Kingdom, you want to annex the Yang Kingdom and the Liu family's rule, just open your mouth, and I will let Bo Xu give way to you." ’

Liu Heng's words made Kou Qing very light.

He didn't know that the Liu family's obsession with the fief was the lowest among the families.

has always been in the mood of dispensability.

He didn't know that Liu Heng, the founder of the Liu family's foundation, had the intention of handing it over to his grandfather Kou Ji when he first got the fief.

Of course, there are other factors as well.

That is the covenant of sunrise that the families have made.

Until the world is completely divided among the families, it is impossible to have internal strife and annexation.

It's so big outside.

It took fifteen years for each family to completely digest even a northern wilderness.

If you want to carve up the world and digest the world, I'm afraid it will be hundreds of years later.

Hundreds of years from now, who cares?

No matter how fierce the fight is, it is also fighting for meat in your own pot.

Either the east wind overpowers the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind.

Anyway, whether it's the east wind and the west wind, it's all Han style.

Liu Heng took Kou Qing and Zhao Qi to his own place, and immediately ordered someone to prepare a banquet for the wind, and after the banquet, he specially asked his little grandson Liu Mou to take Kou Qing and Zhao Qi to take a good walk around the land of Liu's family.

Liu Heng didn't know what to think, and on a mountain on the land of his own family, he chiseled a huge avatar for himself.

Liu Heng specially told Liu Mou that he must take Kou Qing and Zhao Qi to have a good look at his majestic and mighty avatar.

Standing under Liu Heng's huge avatar, looking at the avatar carved at the cost of nearly 30,000 savages, Zhao Qi said softly.

"Brother, it's time for me to go back."

Kou Qing was flicking off the grass wool stained on his sleeves, and when he heard Zhao Qi's words, he was stunned.

"Why? We've been out for a long time, but we actually spend most of our time on the ship. When you were on the ship, you told me in high spirits that you would go all over the Northern Wilderness, and then go to the Southern Wilderness to find the emperor's grandfather and fight the wild people with him.

Now that the Northern Wilderness hasn't been turned around, you have to go back? ”

Zhao Qi heard Kou Qing's question, and laughed softly: "I just suddenly understood that there are many kinds of burdens on my father's shoulders, and I also understand what it means to take on the heavy responsibility I will take on in the future." ”

Kou Qing groaned: "It has something to do with the experience in the Dao King's Palace? ”

Zhao Qi grinned, revealing an ugly smile, and said, "In the past, I always felt that the throne was a constraint. Sometimes I feel that when I sit on the throne, I can do whatever I want.

It wasn't until I experienced everything in the Dao Palace, that I realized that the throne was actually a responsibility.

A responsibility that carries the lives of all human beings.

As the eldest prince, I am the most likely prince to inherit the throne, and my every move will involve human life.

Maybe one of my inadvertent actions has killed countless people.

Maybe one word of mine can keep countless people alive. ”

After listening to Zhao Qi's words, Kou Qing was silent.

After a long time, he smiled bitterly at Zhao Qi: "I thought that a person like you, after feeling his own importance and knowing the true power of imperial power, would regard imperial power as a qualification that can be done spontaneously."

I didn't expect what you saw was responsibility. ”

Zhao Qi also smiled bitterly, "I don't know why, anyway, after I experienced everything in the Dao Palace, when I looked at the throne, what I saw was responsibility, which was enough to crush me into pulp." ”

Kou Qing took a long breath and asked, "So after I left, what did you go through in the Dao Palace?" ”
