Chapter 124: The Case of King Zhenbei
"But if I don't go to see him, no one can stop him. Seeing that Qiang, Jin and even Lang Yue are all in the alliance, he has escorted all the northern generals back to Beijing at this moment, which will undoubtedly give other countries an opportunity to launch a massive attack.
Even if he has obtained all the military power of Daqi by then, so what? Will he become a king who subjugates his country?"
Xie Tie's voice was quite loud. Occasionally, pedestrians passing by could not help but glance in and run away after hearing such treacherous words.
"You are the only one in the world who dares to say such things about him." Zhang Shiqiu was helpless, afraid that those who ran away would report to the official, so he pulled her away quickly.
Zhang Shiqiu originally wanted to take her quietly back to his private courtyard, but as soon as they stepped into Xie's mansion, the people in the palace and Wu Zhui got the news.
"Are you sure you're still holding a baby?"
A personal attendant from the Wu Mansion affirmed: "I have seen with my own eyes that Third Young Master Xie takes great care of the mother and son, just like a family of three."
"Go and find out the origins of the mother and child, and confirm whether it is mother and son or mother and daughter." Liu Fan was determined to make the Zhang family extinct. If the child was a boy, the palace would probably be the first to take action.
.
Sure enough, when Liu Fan got the news in Longyin Palace, he only asked: "Is the child a boy or a girl?"
Chang Qing lowered his head and said: "Back to Your Majesty, the head of the Xie family has sent someone to confirm that she is a daughter of a daughter."
"That's right!" Liu Fan put down the memorial, took a sip from the teacup in his hand, and said with a smile: "When the child grows up and can run and jump, he can be sent to the palace to be Ziyu's companion."
Chang Qing was slightly startled and lowered his head without daring to answer.
Being the companion of the Tian family princess is said to be an honor, but it is also a slave!
After Zhang Shiqiu knew what Liu Fan meant, his handsome face, which always smiled a little when meeting everyone, was so gloomy that it could make anyone laugh.
In his life, there were only two people he truly wanted to protect, one was his mother and the other was Xie Tie.
The former was because he failed to protect her when he was powerless, and now only Xie Tie is left. In the past, he thought that since she was dead, he could have no desires and demands, and it didn't matter even if she had no children or was detained in Chang'an City for the rest of her life.
But it was different now, she was still alive, even though she had married and had children where he couldn't see him, he still wanted to do his best to protect her and the people she cared about.
Therefore, it is absolutely impossible for him to let her child work as a maid for Liu Fan's princess, even if he just talks about it, it would be an insult to the little girl.
"I'm not even angry, why are you so angry?" Xie Tie teased Xiao Yunshu. She suddenly discovered that she was quite talented in taking care of children. She was not at all unfamiliar with taking care of children, as if she had done so before.
Handy.
"Why can't I be angry anymore? The little one is now my goddaughter." He stood up and walked over, holding the child in his arms. The little one liked him quite a lot. He giggled and drooled when he held him.
It dripped all over his collar.
"I forgot to ask, what is my daughter's name?"
Name? Xie Tie was stunned for a moment, and a voice came to his mind: "Yunshu! Sit and watch the clouds roll and relax, and listen to the flowers bloom and fall." The voice was so gentle that Xie Tie couldn't help but read it again: "Yunshu."
"Yunshu?" Zhang Shiqiu looked at the little guy, lowered his eyes to block the expression in his eyes, and said with a smile: "You can't choose such a meaningful name. Your husband must have chosen it!"
Xie Tie didn't tell him that the child was given to her. When she heard him ask this question, it was really difficult to answer. She quickly changed the subject and asked: "How is the case of King Zhenbei?"
Zhang Shiqiu's eyes darkened and he sighed: "Now all the evidence points directly against King Zhenbei. The whole court is in an uproar. Only a few veterans are still arguing for him. But Liu Fan wants to take the opportunity to take back Bei.
Border Soldier Fu has been sitting on the mountain watching the tiger fight, and he has the intention of re-sending his trusted followers to guard the northern border."
"Who is he going to send?"
Although the terrain in the North is not as complex as the South, the environment is harsh and not everyone can defend it like King Zhenbei.
"I don't know, maybe His Majesty has his own considerations!" Over the years, Liu Fan has recruited many martial arts masters and formed a royal secret guard, which has great potential to be reused.
"By the way, where is Hao Yunlai?" She has been here for several days, why didn't Zhang Shiqiu ask Hao Yunlai to come find her?
Hao Yun was a beggar since childhood. Soon after Fu Jiuyin took her back to Feiyun Village, he was afraid that she would not have any friends of similar age, so she picked him up in the City God's Temple. Hao Yunlai was named after her!
Although they are called master and servant, they are actually partners, so Xie Tie firmly believes that Hao Yunlai will not betray her or turn to anyone else.
"You ask Hao Yun to be found, and my daughter will be taken care of by him from now on."
"It's getting late, let's talk later! I'm going to ask someone to prepare lunch." When it came to Hao Yunlai, Zhang Shiqiu's eyes dodge a little. He didn't know how to tell her that the grass on Hao Yunlai's grave was half waist high.
Seeing him looking to his left, Xie Tie's heart sank slightly. He already had the answer, and asked him with a cold face: "Who did it?"
He sighed: "In the early morning of the second day after you disappeared, Hao Yunlai was found poisoned to death in his room."
Although it is not stated directly, it is already very clear.
"Zhao Yin!" Xie Tie said these two words through gritted teeth, hatred and self-blame bursting out on her face. In this life, she had picked up two people and returned to Feiyun Village, and in the end she harmed herself and Hao Yunlai.
I don't know if he was too excited, but Xie Tie felt a sharp pain in his head. The feeling of flying away from the Crocodile Tan that year hit him again, and those long-lasting memory fragments suddenly jumped out.
"Xie Tie..." Seeing her like this, Zhang Shiqiu hurriedly put down the child, supported her and asked worriedly: "How are you? Do you need to call a doctor?"
Xie Tie shook his head with a pale face: "No, I'm fine, I just remembered something."
"What do you remember?"
"I remembered that at the inn, Zhao Yin originally wanted to kill me with poison, but I had antibodies to hundreds of poisons. When she found out, she took advantage of my lack of spare time and inserted a silver needle into an acupuncture point in my brain, and finally threw me into the crocodile
Tan." Now that I think about it, I can't help but sweat for myself back then.
Crocodiles! Monsters that could eat her alive in one bite, but she was able to escape by slapping them in their mouths.
Thinking about it this way, Xie Tie felt that not only was he lucky, he was also lucky!
Zhang Shiqiu also heard her and felt anxious for Xie Tie back then: "Like father, like daughter. As expected, that vicious woman Zhao Yin is as cruel as her father."
"It's not like your father." Xie Tie gave him a blank look. It was strange that she still had some memories that she had not recalled, but she knew that Zhao Yin and Zhang Shiqiu were half-mothers.
"By the way, I also remembered something. I don't know who told me, but it appeared in my mind."
