Now that they have celebrated, there is one thing they have not forgotten.

The purpose was to explain the death of Yang Kang clearly in front of Yang Guo, Guo Jing and Huang Rong, so that Yang Guo would not seek revenge on Guo Jing as in the original novel after knowing the cause of Yang Kang's death.

Although Yin Zhiping did not care that Yang Kang recognized Wanyan Honglie as his father, nor did he care about opposing the Song Dynasty for the sake of wealth and glory in the Jin Kingdom, his death was indeed not to be blamed on Guo Jing and Huang Rong.

If Yang Kang had not hurt Huang Rong, he would not have been poisoned by the soft hedgehog armor and died in the end.

All I can say is that every sip and bite is determined by fate.

"Little Yang Guo is not someone who doesn't understand things. I believe he will understand. Besides, Sister Mu is here. She won't let Little Yang Guo go astray."

Li Mochou understood what it felt like to harbor hatred.

That was how I was back then. I was filled with hatred and felt numb all over. I still feel suffocated when I think about that feeling.

It was just luck that she met the person in front of her, otherwise Li Mochou didn't know what path she would have taken.

"I hope so. I didn't want to ruin Mr. Guo and Mrs. Guo's good mood, so I didn't mention it before. When Mr. Guo gets up later, we can mention it to them. The sooner we talk about this kind of thing, the better."

Yin Zhiping has not yet discussed this with Guo Jing and Huang Rong, but now is the time.

After drinking the porridge, Yin Zhiping felt much better, not knowing whether it was a psychological effect or if it really worked. He washed up, changed his clothes and left the house.

In the peach forest, Huang Rong was holding little Guo Fu in her arms and basking in the sun, Guo Jing and Ke Zhen'e were sitting on the side drinking porridge, and Huang Yaoshi was still standing on the attic, pretending to look into the distance, but his eyes would glance at little Guo Fu from time to time.

Yin Zhiping really wanted to shout: Will you die if you don’t pretend?

Lu Youjiao disappeared, and Mu Nianci took Yang Guo to tease little Guo Fu, and life was peaceful.

After Guo Jing finished drinking the porridge, Yin Zhiping gave Li Mochou a look.

Li Mochou understood what she meant and took little Guo Fu from Huang Rong's hands, then signaled to Huang Rong that Yin Zhiping had something to say to them.

"Mr. Guo, Mrs. Guo, could you please come to the side and talk?"

Yin Zhiping invited directly.

Mu Nianci knew what Yin Zhiping was going to say. She glanced at her son who was wholeheartedly devoted to his sister, then stood up and followed him.

"Mr. Guo, Mrs. Guo, since my sister-in-law is here too, I'll be frank. I want to take this opportunity to explain to Yang Guo the matter of his father, my senior brother, and let him truly understand what kind of person his father is. This will prevent him from making random guesses and causing unnecessary trouble later."

Yin Zhiping believed that Huang Rong could definitely understand what he meant.

In the original novel, Huang Rong was prejudiced against Yang Guo because she knew that Yang Kang's death was closely related to her, so she was worried that Yang Guo would be hostile to the couple after knowing it.

By then, they will have nurtured a tiger to harm themselves.

Even though Yang Guo would now worship him as his master, and Mu Nianci was still around, which could guarantee that Yang Guo would not go astray, Yin Zhiping didn't believe that Huang Rong would not be worried about this matter.

"Brother Yin, Guo'er is still young after all. Even if we want to explain it clearly, isn't it too early?"

Guo Jing thought for a moment, feeling a little hesitant.

"Brother Guo, although Guo'er is young, he has been sensible since he was young, and his intelligence is comparable to some older children. He always knew that I didn't want to mention his father, so even though he was curious, he never asked. It was only when Junior Brother Yin found us that Guo'er asked."

Mu Nianci felt guilty towards her son. She tried her best but still couldn't give her son a good life.

She knew that her son was being bullied outside, and she also knew that her son envied other children for having a father, but she was powerless to change it.

It is not easy to live with a child.

This is also the reason why Mu Nianci agreed to follow Yin Zhiping to Zhongnan Mountain.

She hopes that Yang Guo can live a better life, and apart from Guo Jing, Quanzhen Sect is the best choice.

"Hero Guo, Madam Guo, instead of waiting for Yang Guo to find the answer himself, why don't we take the initiative to talk about this matter? We all know that Senior Brother Yang's death has nothing to do with you. Given the character of Hero Guo, no matter how excessive Senior Brother Yang is, he would not want to take his life."

Yin Zhiping continued to persuade.

"Even if Yang Guo harbors resentment towards you now, it won't matter. Firstly, I will teach you slowly, and my sister-in-law will also persuade you. Secondly, when you and little Guo Fu come to Zhongnan Mountain together, you will have plenty of time to ease the relationship. I believe Yang Guo will figure it out."

Chapter 93 Two people, same situation, different choices

This is what is meant by time revealing a person's true character. Guo Jing treated Yang Guo sincerely, so Yang Guo missed the opportunity to assassinate Guo Jing time and time again, and even turned against Mongolia to help Guo Jing when surrounded by King Jinlun and others. In the end, he let go of the hatred in his heart and truly regarded Guo Jing as an elder.

Guo Jing still agreed to Yin Zhiping's proposal, not to mention Huang Rong. After this matter was discussed, no matter whether Yang Guo wanted to avenge his father or hated her and Guo Jing, Huang Rong believed that as long as Yin Zhiping and Mu Nianci were still there, Yang Guo would not really do anything excessive.

They agreed to talk about it after dinner, which would give Yang Guo some time to figure it out.

After returning, everything was normal in front of Yang Guo. It can only be said that no matter what time, acting skills are a necessary skill for a person.

No matter how capable Lu Youjiao is, his ability as a steward is definitely top-notch. After helping Guo Jing and Huang Rong deal with some follow-up matters, he immediately went back to the Beggars' Sect to be the chief steward.

Yin Zhiping suspected that Huang Rong called him here just to get free labor. Since he arrived at Peach Blossom Island, he has been either helping out or looking for work to do. He truly talks less and does more, and his eyes are full of work.

Which leader doesn’t like subordinates like this?

No wonder he was noticed by Huang Rong and eventually became the leader of the Beggars' Sect. He deserves to reach the peak of his life.

Another day passed in laughter. Hong Qigong had run away, but Guo Jing was free again. Pulling Guo Jing over, Huang Yaoshi, Yin Zhiping, Ke Zhenwu and Guo Jing could once again play mahjong together...

Several female relatives and Yang Guo surrounded little Guo Fu.

Yang Guo finally hugged his sister, his joy and excitement beyond words. Then little Guo Fu gave Yang Guo, the big brother, a luxurious gift package, and shit and piss flowed...

Even so, Yang Guo couldn't stop laughing.

In the evening, after dinner, Guo Jing, Huang Rong, Yin Zhiping and Mu Nianci exchanged glances and nodded.

Mu Nianci called Yang Guo, who was circling around little Guo Fu, and said, "Guo'er, I know you've always wanted to know what kind of person your father was and how he died. Today, while everyone is here, I'll tell you everything."

Yang Guo didn't know that there was such a big surprise waiting for him today.

He really wanted to know what kind of person his father was, why he was killed, and who was the murderer?

But he also knew that his mother didn't want to mention his father, so he sensibly stopped mentioning it and decided to investigate it himself when he was able to do so.

"Mom, what kind of person is my father? How did he die? Who is the murderer?"

These were the questions Yang Guo had hidden in his heart. Seeing that his mother was finally willing to tell him, Yang Guo couldn't help but feel excited and threw out all the questions at once.

"Guo'er, let me tell you. Your father's name is Yang Kang, and he's my sworn brother. Your Yang family's ancestor was Yang Zaixing, a general under General Yue Fei, also known as the famous Yang Family Generals. However, due to various reasons, the Yang family fell into decline and left the court."

Guo Jing did not elaborate on why the Yang family fell into decline. Everyone who knew knew it, and it would be a bit treasonous to say it out loud, so Guo Jing did not want to mention it.

"By chance, your grandmother married Wanyan Honglie, a prince of the Jin Kingdom. Your father became his adopted son and grew up as a young prince of the Jin Kingdom.

It was at that time that your master's uncle, Taoist Master Qiu Chuji, who was also Brother Yin's master, found your father, accepted him as his disciple, and taught him carefully.

It's a pity that for the sake of fame and fortune, he was willing to acknowledge the enemy as his father, and refused to recognize his biological father, your grandfather, causing your grandparents to die with hatred. He also sided with the Jin and opposed the Song, which was disloyal, unrighteous, and unfilial.

Although Guo Jing complained about Yang Kang's faults, there was no hatred in his words, only a sense of disappointment.

"So my father is a wicked man in your eyes, and that's why you want to kill him, right, mother?"

After hearing what Guo Jing said, Yang Guo was greatly shocked. He looked at his mother in disbelief, hoping that his mother would tell him that this was all fake.

Yang Guo is very smart, and Guo Jing's words can explain a lot.

It's not that Yang Guo can't accept his father's betrayal and evil deeds. What Yang Guo can't accept is that his father's death may be related to this Uncle Guo he just met.

It was this relative whom I had just met a few days ago, this Uncle Guo who was clumsy in speaking but very kind to me, who made me lose my father since childhood.

"Guo'er, other people might wish your father dead, but your Uncle Guo definitely wouldn't. Your Uncle Guo has been trying his best to bring your father back to the right path. It's your father who is stubborn and refuses to change his ways. He deserves his death."

Mu Nianci couldn't help but shed tears. She knew how tolerant Guo Jing was towards Yang Kang. No matter how many times Yang Kang made mistakes, Guo Jing chose to forgive him and always tried to help Yang Kang.

"Yang Guo, if you want to know how your father died, Aunt Guo will tell you today. Your father's death was caused by me. He wanted to attack me when I was not prepared, but he hit my soft armor with his palm and was poisoned, causing him to die.

After all, if your father hadn't wanted to harm me, I wouldn't have ended up dead. With your Uncle Guo's reputation, he would have been able to protect him."

Since she had to make it clear, Huang Rong did not hide anything and directly told the cause of Yang Kang's death.

No one knows better than Huang Rong how much of a blow Yang Kang's death was to Guo Jing.

Guo Jing has been blaming himself for not being able to bring Yang Kang back on the right path.

Yang Guo was very confused. Now everyone told him that his beloved father was a bad man and deserved to die.

But Yang Guo just wanted a father, no matter what kind of person his father was, he simply didn't want to be called a fatherless wild child anymore.

Yang Guo looked at Yin Zhiping in confusion, hoping that his master could say something.

"Your father and your Uncle Guo are very similar. One grew up in the desert and almost became a prince consort, while the other grew up in the Kingdom of Jin and was a true little prince, with wealth and glory at his fingertips.

It's just that the two people made different choices. Your father chose the adoptive father who raised him, and your Uncle Guo chose to return to his homeland. In my opinion, neither of them is wrong."

Yin Zhiping's opening statement was a powerful blow, and even Huang Yaoshi, who was watching from the sidelines, looked at Yin Zhiping in surprise.

"Brother Yin, how can it be right to recognize a thief as your father? If it weren't for Wanyan Honglie, our Guo and Yang families wouldn't have ended up in ruin."

Guo Jing retorted sharply.

"Brother Yin, I, the old bat, know this matter best. Wanyan Honglie is still Yang Kang's enemy. But instead of seeking revenge, he acknowledges him as his father. Is that right?"

Ke Zhenwu couldn't stand it anymore. Although you, Yin Zhiping, are capable and we have a good relationship, but to me, right is right and wrong is wrong.

Chapter 94: Even the Master Curses Me When I Get Cruel

Mr. Jin has two good reputations in his works. One is Duan Zhengchun. When he says you are his child, then you must be his child, whether you are or not.

The second is Ke Zhenwu. When he says someone is a bad person, that person will definitely not be a good person.

Is Yang Kang a villain?

Yes, Yin Zhiping also admitted it.

But Yin Zhiping believes that Yang Kang’s evil does not lie in his so-called recognition of a thief as his father, but in his intention to harm others for his own selfish reasons.

"Senior Ke, as far as I know, Wanyan Honglie treated Yang Kang as his own son back then, and even intended to hand over the throne to Yang Kang. Regardless of Wanyan Honglie's many faults, he was grateful to Yang Kang for raising him.

Which one do you think is greater, the grace of raising you or the grace of giving birth to you?

What's more, put yourself in his shoes. How would you feel if a father who has raised you for twenty years and has deep feelings for you suddenly becomes your enemy?

As for selling out one's country for personal gain? That's sheer nonsense. The Yang family has truly devoted themselves to the Song Dynasty, but what about the Song Dynasty's treatment of the Yang family?

Yin Zhiping's words were full of contempt for the corrupt Song Dynasty.

This was very irritating to Guo Jing, who was devoted to serving his country.

"Brother Yin, you are also a citizen of the Song Dynasty. How can you say this about your own country?"

Guo Jing couldn't help but stand up and question.

"Mr. Guo, I am Han Chinese."

Yin Zhiping corrected.

"What's the difference? Aren't the people of the Song Dynasty Han Chinese?"

Guo Jing was confused. In his opinion, the people of Song Dynasty and Han Dynasty were the same.

"That's a huge difference, Mr. Guo. The people of Song were definitely Han Chinese, but Han Chinese weren't necessarily Song Chinese. It's just a country name. Can you say the people before the Tang Dynasty weren't Han Chinese?"

Yin Zhiping became more and more excited as he spoke.

Guo Jing is indeed a hero, and he is respected for his dedication to defending his country, but Yin Zhiping could never be as pedantic as him.

"But whether it's the Jin or the Mongols, they are both foreign races. They are not Han Chinese. If they were allowed to rule the Central Plains, it would only cause great suffering to the people."

Guo Jing also tried to change Yin Zhiping's mind.

He couldn't understand why they were comrades who had fought side by side in Xiangyang City, so they had such a big disagreement on the righteousness?

"If they hadn't taken control of the Central Plains, wouldn't the people of the Central Plains have suffered?"

Yin Zhiping asked back sternly.

"Every time I went down the mountain, I saw bandits everywhere, and the people were displaced. Why was Mo Chou called a female devil? Wasn't it because she killed many people who claimed to be righteous but actually did the same thing as thieves and prostitutes?

"Mr. Guo, in your eyes, is the Song Dynasty the Song Dynasty of the Han people, or the Song Dynasty of the imperial court?"

It was the first time that Li Mochou saw such a strong Yin Zhiping, and her eyes were shining.

Even Huang Yaoshi nodded repeatedly after listening to Yin Zhiping's words. He had always thought that his son-in-law was pedantic, and what Yin Zhiping said today was exactly what he wanted.

Ke Zhenwu lowered his head in thought, and his hand that was leaning on the iron rod unconsciously clenched.

"Then why did you come to Xiangyang to help?"

Guo Jing asked doubtfully.

Since Yin Zhiping looked down on the Song Dynasty, why did he help defend Xiangyang?
