Zhao Lan struggled for a moment and glanced at Zhuo Dongtian. He had the same look on his face, so he had to grit his teeth and tell everything.
In fact, Zhao Lan and the others did not see who killed Zhang Zhongye, but they were sure that the person who killed Zhang Zhongye must be a member of the Tuoba family.
The predecessors of these northwest alien races are descendants of some small countries that were destroyed by the Human Emperor in ancient times. Although their ancestors were destroyed by the Human Emperor, in fact, their inheritance is not weak. For example, the Tuoba clan, who was more than fifty years old,
Although they are not ranked among the top among the northwest alien tribes, they are at least in the top twenty. There is even a Yangshen realm warrior in the tribe.
Just as the spies from the six gates and Zhang Zhongye's subordinates said before, Zhang Zhongye only cared about having fun when he was the general manager of the Northwest Road March and rarely offended people. Of course, he couldn't afford to offend these northwest aliens.
After all, what Da Zhou needs is stability in the northwest. If he really causes any trouble, Da Zhou will probably not let him off easily.
It's just that Zhang Zhongye didn't offend anyone, but it was his son Zhang Chen who really offended anyone.
This Zhang Chen has no martial arts talent, but his style is like his father's fondness for wine and sex, and he is a complete playboy.
But although Zhang Chen is a playboy, he is not an idiot. He knows who he can touch and who he cannot touch. Generally, he will not provoke those alien tribes in the northwest.
One day, Zhang Chen fell in love with the legitimate daughter of the Zhang family, a small and unpopular local in Northwest Road. Seeing her beauty, he wanted to forcefully marry her as his concubine.
The strongest among that small and unfashionable force was only an acquired peak. If Zhang Chen couldn't offend those northwest aliens, how could he afford to offend this small and unfashionable force? So he wanted to rob him regardless of the opponent's refusal.
But who would have thought that the legitimate daughter of the Zhang family was the admirer of Tuo Ba Feng, a collateral bloodline of the Tuoba family, so she had a conflict with Zhang Chen when he wanted to marry him.
At this time, Su Xin suddenly interrupted: "Don't the foreign races in the northwest not intermarry with foreign races? What's the situation with Tuo Ba Feng?"
Zhao Lan explained: "That's right, but Tuo Ba Feng and the legitimate daughter of the Zhang family really love each other, so they only dare to contact each other in secret, but Zhang Chen's troubles brought them to the surface.
Originally, the Tuoba family was involved in this matter. We thought that Zhang Chen would definitely give up and Zhang Zhongye would stop him. However, we did not expect that Zhang Zhongye would dote on his son so much that he even sent a message to the Tuoba family saying,
Tuo Ba Feng violated the clan rules and put pressure on the Zhang family to marry their daughter."
Su Xin touched his chin. Zhang Zhongye really doted on his son. He could do such shameless things.
The Tuoba clan absolutely does not allow its disciples to marry outsiders, and the direct and collateral bloodlines within the clan are not determined by bloodline concentration like the Su family, but by their past identities.
To put it simply, the direct bloodline is like Ji Haodian of the Great Zhou Dynasty and his descendants, who were qualified to inherit the throne in the past.
As for the collateral bloodline, the royal family surnamed Ji such as Ji Xuanyuan, although they are a family in name, they are not qualified to hold power.
In order to keep the bloodline pure, the Tuoba family would definitely not let Tuoba Feng continue to contact the Zhang family's legitimate daughter after learning the news.
It's just that Zhang Zhongye's little move couldn't be hidden from the Tuoba family. His move could be regarded as offending the Tuoba family. Zhang Zhongye did a lot for his incompetent son.
Su Xin asked: "Finally, Tuoba clan banned Tuoba Feng?"
Zhao Lan nodded and said: "Yes, Tuo Ba Feng's move violated the clan rules, so he was banned on the spot and locked up in the clan to think about his mistakes.
The Zhang family over there couldn't stand the pressure from Zhang Zhongye and decided to marry their daughter to Zhang Chen as their concubine.
But who would have thought that Tuo Ba Feng was pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger, and he was quite powerful in his own right.
Originally, Tuo Ba Feng belonged to the collateral bloodline, and among the collateral bloodlines, he was one of those with relatively mediocre qualifications. He only broke through to the innate realm at the age of twenty.
Although this speed is not fast when compared to other warriors, it is definitely not slow either, but when it comes to the Tuoba clan, it is considered mediocre.
Therefore, Tuo Ba Feng was not taken seriously in the clan and was bullied.
But when he heard the news that the Zhang family was planning to marry off their daughter, he unexpectedly reached the peak of the Divine Palace Realm. He had become one with man and nature, and had reached the half-step of the Divine Realm.
He even made a bet with the elders of his clan to fight against a strong Tuoba clan in the Transformation of God Realm without defeat in three moves, in exchange for the opportunity for him to take action.
This matter has spread widely within the Tuoba clan. My Zhao family has had transactions with the Tuoba clan, so I heard many disciples in their clan discussing this matter.
Once Tuoba Feng rose to prominence, he immediately became the most dazzling new star in the Tuoba clan, so the elders of their clan agreed to let him take action.
We don’t know what happened after that, but I, a member of the Zhao family, saw Tuo Ba Feng appearing in Feilong City on the day Zhang Zhongye died. As a result, the news of Zhang Zhongye’s death came that night.
And then Tuoba Feng reappeared in the Zhang family, directly bringing the Zhang family into the Tuoba family's sphere of influence and becoming its vassal, and he also married the young lady of the Zhang family."
Su Xin tapped his finger on the table and said, "For the sake of a talented disciple, the Tuoba clan, they violated the rules of their ancestors and even the entire northwest alien race?"
Zhao Lan explained: "In fact, it's not a violation. I heard that Tuoba Feng knelt for a day and a night before the ancestors were ranked, and finally got the ancestor of the Tuoba family to relent and let him marry the legitimate daughter of the Zhang family.
Wife, but the condition is that the Zhang family must be completely integrated into the Tuoba family, and Tuoba Feng and the Zhang family's legitimate daughter cannot have children.
Tuoba Feng also truly loved the legitimate daughter of the Zhang family, and he agreed to such harsh conditions, which made the ancestor of the Tuoba clan relent."
After Zhao Lan said all this, he let out a sigh of relief. He had already said what he should say, and he had to leave it to fate what to do from now on.
Su Xin nodded and said, "Okay, you can go."
After hearing these words, Zhao Lan and Zhuo Dongtian felt relieved and hurriedly left.
Li Huai stood motionless next to Su Xin. He was not the kind of person who was good at thinking, so it was better to let Su Xin decide on the next plan.
"This Tuoba Feng is quite interesting." Su Xin murmured, with a look of interest on his face.
Zhao Lan said this from the perspective of a bystander, but Su Xin felt something was wrong after listening to it.
For example, how did Tuo Ba Feng go from an ordinary mediocre innate warrior to a powerful being that could rival the divine realm in a short period of time?
And the ancestor of the Tuoba clan was a bit too open-minded and reasonable. Just because Tuoba Feng showed his talent, the Tuoba clan gave him the green light?
You must know that although Tuo Ba Feng promised not to have any children with the Zhang family's legitimate daughter, who can say for sure about this kind of thing?
What if the two of them have selfish motives and want to have an heir secretly? Anyway, if Tuoba does this, it will definitely leave a lot of risks.
Of course, this is just the reason why Su Xin is suspected of being seriously ill. To outsiders, this Tuo Ba Feng is obviously an inspirational model.
The young boy was bullied for being mediocre, but he worked hard secretly, and finally gained amazing strength.
But before he could become a blockbuster, his beloved woman was robbed by evil men. In the end, he broke through many obstacles, won the respect of the elders of the clan, turned into a god, and lived with his beloved woman. What do you think of this story?
Some are false, but I can't help but many people will believe it.
At least in this story, the Tuoba family is a completely positive character. Although Tuoba Feng was imprisoned due to clan rules, he later helped him after he showed great strength, and also passed through another person.
A way to get Tuo Ba Feng and the legitimate daughter of the Zhang family together.
After a long silence, Su Xin said: "In two days, Huang Bingcheng will come with people from Jiangnan Road. At that time, his people will be asked to replenish the secret guards, and your former secret guards who were detectives will break away and become secret guards.
The Inspector of Guards is responsible for intelligence work."
The intelligence capabilities of the six gates on the northwest path are still too weak, even to a certain extent, and even things like the Tuoba clan have not been found out.
Although this matter is indeed excusable. If the Zhao family did not have a transaction with the Tuoba clan, they would not know about it, but this is not an excuse. As long as they find a way, people from the six gates can sneak into the Tuoba clan for a long time.
Waiting for the alien races in the northwest, at least for a short period of time, there will be no problem.
This is also the disadvantage of not having one person in charge of the overall situation.
Because what the imperial court needs here on the Northwest Road is not an attack, but just a precaution, the only people left here are some ordinary police agents, not even a chief police officer.
As a result, the spies were inevitably a little lazy.
"Tuoba clan? That's good. We have an excuse to target them."
Now that Su Xin has decided to come to the Northwest Road, he will inevitably face these northwest aliens one day. Unless he can be like Zhang Zhongye and wait to die, there will definitely be conflict between the two sides.
conflicting.
It just so happened that Su Xin could take this opportunity to explore the details of the alien tribes in the northwest. The Tuoba clan was not weak, but not too strong either, so it could be Su Xin's target.
Two days later, Huang Bingcheng also came with people from Jiangnan Road and Jianghuai Road, as well as people from the Su family who had planted themselves in these two places.
As a result, the number of people on Su Xin's side skyrocketed to tens of thousands, and among these tens of thousands, almost all were in the mid-acquired stage or above.
Of course, all of these people cannot be put into the secret guard. Su Xin only wanted elites. After selection, only about a thousand people were qualified to join the secret guard, while the others were all beaten back.
Of course, these people are not useless. Su Xin is now the governor of the Northwest Road. It turns out that the people in the military are too weak, and although the military has a good relationship with Su Xin, it is impossible for him to supplement his strength, so these people
He was incorporated into the Northwest Army under Su Xin and served as an ordinary soldier.
