"No!" Xie Jue told the truth. If it weren't for Fang Chuning, he would have snatched the jade seal himself.
"You don't even want to lie to me." Xie Xun kicked a stool away angrily and was so angry that Xie Jue knew that he was angry and said calmly, "If it weren't for me, Fang Chuning wouldn't take the blame for killing Han Ziqi.
, Zhixu, it’s a favor to return to him.”
"Do you believe what you say?"
"Then you want to hear the truth from me?"
"I'm going to practice sword practice!"
Xie Jue knew that Xie Xun would be angry, and he was indeed in the wrong. On the territory of the Twelve States, Fang Chuning took Xiaoqi and Yuxi away, which really shouldn't have happened. It would be impossible for the commander-in-chief to do it with anyone else.
Fang Chuning. If he didn't know about Yuxi, that would be fine. If he knew that he let Fang Chuning go, no wonder Xie Xun would be furious.
If he is the elder brother, not the younger brother!
Xie Xun will definitely compete with Fang Chuning, regardless of feelings.
If it weren't for Fang Chuning, even if Xiao Qi refused to give him the jade seal, then the jade seal would be rotten somewhere and never see the light of day, and he would never give it to Yu Wenjing.
With the jade seal, I know that Xu Chushi is famous and can call the world to be orthodox. He can even pretend to be a hexagram and say that the Yuwen family is no longer destined by fate and the people of the world are divided. This will definitely stir up trouble. He has too many reasons to grab the jade seal.
He had no reason to let Xiao Qi go.
But he knew Fang Chuning. It wasn't until Xiaoqi's identity was exposed that Xie Jue realized that the real purpose of Fang Chuning's trip to Xizhou was Xiaoqi and Yuxi, not Han Ziqi. The commander must have given a death order, and he wanted to take Xiaoqi and Yuxi back.
, with his character, if Zhixu went to rob him, he would definitely stop him. This would not be like leaving a thin line when they were fighting each other in the courtyard. At that moment, it was truly a battlefield between the two armies, where life and death mattered. If one day Xie Xun
Leading troops to attack Zhongzhou, Fang Chuning defends the city, and the two armies fight. He will not interfere with any of Xie Xun's orders, and will help Xie Xun attack the city with minimal casualties and capture Zhongzhou as soon as possible.
But Xie Jue felt that it was not worth it to fight to the death for a piece of jade seal.
This jade seal is very important!
It's not that important.
With the jade seal, the Ningzhou cavalry would not be more powerful, and their combat effectiveness would increase dramatically. Without the jade seal, the Ningzhou cavalry would not be in a state of collapse. The military's morale is not a dead thing.
Of course, the deepest reason is that his relationship with Fang Chuning is more important than this jade seal.
Feng Yu and Xie Jue had the same idea. There was no need to fight to the death for a piece of jade seal in Xizhou. If Fang Chuning protected the jade seal to the end, he would be killed or injured, which would not do them any good.
Like Xie Jue, she would also have a little regret. If only Fang Chuning hadn't come to look for the jade seal, the commander should have known that this would be the case, so he sent Fang Chuning.
If it wasn't an important matter, why would the coach of Zhongzhou leave Zhongzhou?
Ruyi knew that his uncle was angry, and looked at him with clear and innocent round eyes. Xie Xun found that no matter how angry he was, he felt very happy when Ruyi smiled. He originally planned to have a cold war with his second brother, but in the end, his anger lasted until late
The meal was over, and he still found his way down the steps. The second brother's eye disease had not yet recovered, and he could not make him nervous.
"I decided not to be angry with you anymore," Xie Xun said.
Xie Jue looked at him eating happily, his face expressionless, "..."
Feng Yu laughed, knowing that Xie Xun couldn't hold on for long and would find a way out. After Xie Xun announced that he was not angry, he couldn't help but ask Feng Yu, "When you were wandering with him, Xiao Qi was still young and you didn't reveal it.
Any news?"
"No, Xiaoqi was very cautious when he was a child and never revealed his identity. I was too young at the time and didn't notice how rich and noble he was." When they met, they were both in a mess, like street beggars.
Xie Xun said, "He is so tolerant that he never revealed to you after we reunited that he still wanted to join the Ningzhou Cavalry. He is a direct descendant of the Yuwen family. Doesn't he have any idea about the dragon chair?"
"Xiao Qi avoids Kyoto. He probably just wants to live quietly. There is no benefit in exposing his identity. Now Yu Wenjing is sitting on the throne. If Xiao Qi's identity is exposed, Yu Wenjing will not be able to tolerate him." Feng Yu was even more curious.
One thing: "The commander-in-chief is so loyal. When he gets the jade seal, should he keep it secret or return it to the royal family?"
"What you should be curious about is whether Fang Chuning will give it to him." Xie Jue said lightly.
"Can he still resist orders?"
Xie Xun snorted coldly, "This is not the first time. He has resisted military orders in Ningzhou Cavalry."
The wind and snow gradually subsided, but the ice on the moat was still very thick. After Xie Xun was almost healed from his injury, he was ready to leave for Ningzhou.
It seemed extremely important, and Feng Yu was extremely reluctant to part with them, but she started to prepare their luggage.
But sudden changes always happen in an instant.
When Xie Xun was patrolling the city at night, Zhang Meng came on horseback and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not good, there is smoke burning in the northwest."
Hearing these words was like thunder in Xie Xun's ears. He quickly ran to the city gate, and all the officers and soldiers saw it. Wolf smoke was billowing from the northwest, and neither the dark night nor the wind and snow could hide the scorching light.
When Lin Xiao and Zhang Boxing were building the road, they found that the terrain along the grain and horse road was flat and there was no cover as far as the eye could see for thousands of miles, so they suggested that Xie Xun build a beacon tower. There were no beacon towers in the Twelve Cities of Ningzhou, and the main force of the army would not be spread throughout the Twelve Cities.
Deep in the hinterland of the state. Xie Xun thought about the plan of the entire twelve states and agreed to Lin Xiao's suggestion to build a beacon tower.
When Lin Xiao, Zhang Boxing, and Zhou Liyu were building roads, they also built beacon towers. A total of 1,500 beacon towers were built from Ningzhou all the way to Jinzhou. The beacon towers had just been built, and there had never been smoke in the twelve states.
, the people were still ignorant, and the soldiers guarding the city were broken into cold sweats.
The Northern Barbarian army is attacking Ningzhou!
