Ji Cheng looked at his unfamiliar brother who was only slightly familiar, and big tears fell from his eyes.
He knelt down and came to Zhao Si's side, hugging Zhao Si's thigh.
"Brother, I can't help you... I was supposed to be the one to join the army, but I didn't want to... But I didn't want to..."
Ji Cheng was speechless and choked.
Zhao Si was silent and held Ji Cheng's hand again.
"Get up..."
Seeing the tall Angzang man kneeling in front of him with tears streaming down his face, Zhao Si couldn't describe his feelings for a moment.
It is true that there is no sense of empathy, but it cannot make people just kneel all the time.
Ji Cheng felt infinite guilt for his brother. After all, if it weren't for him, his brother wouldn't have traveled overseas and returned home with a narrow escape.
Although, the young Ji Cheng didn't know the truth until he became an adult.
The brother who had protected him since he was a child protected him for the last time.
What made Ji Cheng feel the most guilty was that his brother had already returned home in rich clothes, but he relied on the First Emperor's closeness to his brother to be promoted from pavilion chief to Yilang.
Their family owed so much to Zhao Si. Ji Cheng felt a mixture of sadness, joy, and guilt, struggling not to get up.
The elder brother is like the father... This kneeling is reasonable and reasonable, and it is what he should do.
However, Zhao Si did not have the strength to overcome the odds. Even though Ji Cheng wanted to salute, Zhao Si was stunned and even kept his body in a kneeling position in the air.
Ji Cheng was stunned for a moment, and his legs curled up in mid-air slowly fell to the ground.
"I used too much strength..." Zhao Si smiled sarcastically.
The tear-jerking atmosphere was gone, and the atmosphere became awkward for a moment.
"Brother is still very strong!" Ji Cheng smiled and held Zhao Si's arm.
"My elder brother is two years old. My brother was much stronger than me when I was a child. After my brother left, I grew up and became quite brave among the people in the village. I still want to wait for my brother to come back and let him see my courage... "Ji Cheng scratched his head and wiped away his tears, his tone still very excited and happy.
"Ah... I hit my head on the boat, but I forgot so many things that I can no longer remember them." Zhao Si smiled awkwardly when he heard Ji Cheng launched the memory kill.
Ji Cheng was startled when he heard the sound and remained silent for a long time.
"The sea is dangerous."
"Fortunately, I finally came back safely." Zhao Si shook his head.
"Go home first, brother." Ji Cheng had a hint of uneasy sincerity in his eyes.
Zhao Si was silent for a long time and nodded.
Li Chen stepped forward and took away Zhao Si's bicycle frame to place it. Ji Cheng excitedly held Zhao Si's arm and did not let go, pulling Zhao Si all the way to the room.
"Isn't the eldest father at home?" Zhao Si asked, looking at Ji Cheng who was busy going about his business.
Ji Cheng's expression paused for a moment.
"When my brother served for me, my eldest father felt guilty and had no face to live in Xianyang. Now I live in the countryside. Thanks to my brother, I was selected as a councilman by your majesty with a despicable body. I am here to wait for my brother to return home." Ji Cheng sighed. He took a breath and sat down on his knees.
"Brother..." Ji Cheng opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
After all, this is a hurdle that cannot be overcome. The saddest thing is that Zhao Si is living a good life now. Even if he makes up for it, he doesn't know where to make up for it.
Jicheng was vaguely sure that Zhao Si was his brother when the fairy grain was produced, but he still dared not recognize him.
In the final analysis, I still feel guilty.
Even though Ji Cheng was not an insider, Zhao Si still went overseas to serve on his behalf.
After learning about his brother's whereabouts and knowing that he was doing well, Ji Cheng thought deeply for a long time and finally did not recognize him rashly.
It was not until later, before the First Emperor made a grand tour of the world, that Ji Cheng was promoted to Yilang and was rewarded with a house in Xianyang by the First Emperor, that Ji Cheng felt a little more at ease.
Although he had learned from his eldest father that Zhao Si was not his biological brother, after spending several years together, blood ties were no longer that important.
Ji Cheng was better off. After all, he was not an insider. If he had to ask himself, if Ji Cheng knew the truth at that time, he would definitely not let his brother do the work for him. Therefore, the pressure in his heart was not that great. He only felt more missing. .
But Ji Chang was different. He was the decision-maker at the time, and he had been suffering deeply since he made the decision.
"It's all over..." Zhao Si smiled and shook his head.
After all, Zhao Si was not a witness to the incident, and from a bystander's perspective, the culprit of the family's separation was not Ji Chang.
It was Xu Fu who deceived the First Emperor...
There were too many factors behind it, and Zhao Si didn't want to delve into it. At least he learned through the files that before joining the army, Ji Chang always treated the original person as his own.
The test of human nature is imposed on Ji Chang by the times. If this incident had not happened, Ji Chang would most likely have tried his best to raise the original person.
The choice forced under the pressure of this era is human, and there will be selfish motives.
Moreover, now that his life experience has been determined, Zhao Si does not want to let his personal ethics suffer because of this kind of thing.
There is definitely no emotional basis for treating them as family members, but at least they must be harmonious on the surface.
This doesn't affect anything.
In comparison, Zhao Si is more concerned about other things.
Since he is not Ji Cheng's biological brother, what is his life experience?
Did your golden finger come with it after time travel, or did it already exist?
Zhao Si was concerned about these, so he naturally asked.
"I was young when my elder brother was picked up by my eldest father. I didn't know what was going on. My brother had never come home before, so I didn't dare to ask in detail, lest my eldest father would be sad when he heard about it." Ji Cheng shook his head and asked what Zhao Si said. What happened to the person who was picked up? Because he was afraid of touching his grandfather Ji Chang's sadness, Ji Cheng didn't ask any more questions.
"As for my brother's popularity, he is very popular." Ji Cheng scratched his head.
"Everyone in the village likes my brother very much, and children of the same age are willing to believe in him. A group of children are playing and vying to be the general and marshal. As long as my brother comes, the position of general will definitely belong to him, and I can also take advantage of him. He should be a partial general."
Recalling the scenes from his childhood, Ji Cheng showed a slight smile on his face.
Regardless of whether they are adults or children, there are few people who are unwilling to get close to Zhao Si.
If we use modern words to describe it, then Zhao Si is almost the favorite of the entire village. Ji Cheng, a little follower, has also benefited a lot from this, eating and drinking with Zhao Si.
"How will the food production at home be?" Zhao Si asked again.
"I don't know about this, but my impression seems to be that the output is pretty good. After my brother left, my eldest father was often worried. Maybe because of this, the food output is not normal."
Zhao Si nodded.
It looks like... my golden finger doesn't seem to be brought by me through time?
That's not right. Maybe he broke the mystery of the womb because he hit his head?
"It doesn't feel right..."
Zhao Si rubbed his eyebrows and looked at the eager Ji Cheng, who was lost in thought.
(No more, let me explain briefly and let the plot begin immediately.)
