Since Yan Haidao, Wei Dao has closely watched the court's movements. Qishan received detailed reports, and Xiang Nan also received them.
"I knew it." He patted the table and smiled at Chen Er, "She will definitely do this. Kill the chicken first, and then kill the monkey immediately before scaring the monkey."
Chen Er pouted: "Why are you so happy? You are also a monkey."
Xiang Nan smiled and said: "Monkeys can be happy too."
"What do you do, happy monkey?" Chen Er asked, "Do you beat gongs and drums to welcome the arrival of the inspector?"
Xiang Nan said: "Of course." Then he raised his hand and said, "Send the person to the south immediately."
Chen Er laughed. The southwestern part of Zhejiang was occupied by soldiers and horses from the southeastern route of Qishan.
As they were talking, a guard came in with a messenger, "Guardian, Governor Xiang has sent someone here."
Xiang Nan was very familiar with this letter soldier. He greeted him with a smile, took the letter, and asked him to go down to rest. He opened the letter, read it and said to Chen Er, "My uncle specifically told me not to conflict with the supervisor."
Chen Erdao: "It seems that beating Yanhaidao's chicken is very effective. Everyone is a little scared, and we can live in peace for a while."
Xiang Nan shook his head. Of course he was afraid, but it was not certain whether there would be peace in the future. After being afraid, he might also fight back.
Xiang Yun also said this in the letter, and the queen's thoughts and ideas were clearly understood. It was to force them to give up their family business and return to the court. Taking money from others is like killing their parents. No one is willing to let go. Now let's see
Whoever makes the move first.
"Don't do anything, don't ruin the previous relationship between you and the queen."
Xiang Nan rubbed his nose. His uncle really thought highly of him. The queen had no affection for him at all and had abandoned him long ago. Since becoming the queen, she has not written a letter to him...
..
So melancholy.
He sighed and looked at Chen Er: "Keep an eye on the movement on the southeast side."
Chen Er didn't react. He just said it would be peaceful...
"How can there be real peace? Real peace must be fought. How long will the rebels fight? Are you defending the law?"
It’s not good to be a girl.”
Yes, except for the title, today's Wei Dao is not much different from the rebels. It is not impossible to fight with the soldiers and horses of the imperial court. Qishan's soldiers and horses are enough to fight with the soldiers and horses of the female queen.
, Chen Er looked solemn: "You want to help the queen?"
Xiang Nan glanced at him and seemed to find his question strange.
"What are you thinking about? How can the queen use my help?" He said, "Of course I want to take the opportunity to snatch back the other half of Zhejiang Province."
...
...
Xiang Yun breathed a sigh of relief after receiving Xiang Nan's reply.
"Of course Mr. Nan will not be reckless." Jiang You said with a smile, "Captain, you are worrying too much. He is not a child who has not been through war."
Xiang Yun smiled. He had known for a long time that Xiang Nan was no longer a child, but a young man with his own ideas and disobedience. What he was worried about was not what Xiang Nan would do to the imperial inspector, but to ventilate the female queen.
Report the news and deal with Qishan together.
Dealing with other defenders together with the queen was once a way he had thought of, but now it seems that the queen is fierce and ruthless. In addition, she has already had a fight, and she has a taboo against the Xiang family. If she really wants to
If he takes action, the first one will only take action against Xiang.
Thinking of his mistake in the capital, and the shock of hearing that Emperor Cui Zheng and the three princes were killed together, I still have lingering fears.
If he hadn't run so fast, he might have followed the late Emperor Cui Zheng.
The queen wanted to kill him, and after he accomplished the great feat of killing Ande Zhong, he actually wanted to trick him into entering the capital, and then...
Xiang Yun sneered in his heart, thinking that if she just sealed herself, she could really make the world in awe?
A regicide and a traitor! His crime deserves to be punished by death, and everyone will punish him...but the time has not yet come.
Now.....
"Captain, is Qishan's proposal really feasible?" Jiang You asked in a low voice.
In addition to Xiang Nan's letter, there is also an autographed letter from Qi Shan that has arrived long ago on Xiang Yun's desk.
Xiang Yun said: "If it works, we have to do it even if it doesn't work. If it doesn't work, we won't be able to do it."
Jiang You was not confused by this tongue twister, and nodded solemnly: "The Queen is so arrogant, she wants to swallow us up before the world is settled."
Xiang Yun said: "What she did is not excessive. If it were me, I would do the same thing, but I probably wouldn't be as quick as her."
He smiled and stood up.
"It doesn't matter if she is fast, we will be fast too. Sooner or later it will be like this."
Jiang You smiled and said: "It's better to go sooner rather than later, I'll make arrangements to welcome the inspector."
Xiang Yun nodded, looked at Jiang You and called out as he was about to go out: "There have been no assassin movements in Longyou recently, right?"
The assassination encountered on the way to the capital was the most thrilling one and the most fatal counterattack against the assassin. From then on, the assassin never appeared again.
But Xiang Yun would not let down his guard until he saw the assassin die before his eyes.
Jiang You said: "No, there are strict checks everywhere in the road, so the governor can rest assured."
Xiang Yun is not reassured. A strict investigation may not necessarily prevent the assassin. Even if the assassin is not on the Longyou Road, he is still spying out.
The assassin can only be seen when he appears.
However, if he dares to appear, he will not be able to escape in this Longyou Road.
Xiang Yun was somewhat hopeful that the assassin would show up. He said, "I'm going to inspect the military camp to see how the new recruits are training."
All the defense routes are recruiting troops, but it is a pity that they have missed the time to attract a large number of refugees. There are not enough young people in the territory, so they will relax the age limit. If that doesn't work, they will go to other defense routes to grab some... Longyou is no exception. Through the crusade,
Ande Zhong collected many people along the way, and the rebels were also filled in with different identities, making them much stronger than before.
Xiang Yun was strict in his military management, but at the same time he loved his soldiers. During marches and battles, he often drank and slept with ordinary soldiers.
It's natural to go to the barracks and watch the new recruits training.
Jiang You responded and went to make arrangements.
The Grand Governor went out with a majestic ceremony and soldiers and horses to clear the road. The people looked in awe at Xiang Yun who was surrounded by soldiers armored like iron barrels...
"Is the Governor going to meet the inspector?"
"Is the imperial inspector arriving so soon?"
"This is the heroic general who killed Ande Zhong."
The people were talking in low voices and speculating, some were looking around, others were squeezing around to get a better view, and some wanted to follow Xiang Yun's team to watch the excitement, until someone pinned their shoulders.
Xiang Qiubeard smelled the faint fragrance of flowers and knew who it was without turning around, so he cursed angrily and got out.
The slender fingers on his shoulders were like a thousand pounds, making it impossible for him to take a single step.
"I'm just saving your life." Li Min said disgustedly, "Don't you understand what I'm saying? You can just run in and kill him?"
Xiang Qiubeard was a little helpless: "Uncle, can you stop following me? How much time do you think you've wasted on me?"
Li Min rolled his eyes: "It's obviously you who wasted my time."
Involuntarily, Xiang Xiang was carried by his beard into a nearby teahouse. The strong boy had already told the waiter: "Elegant room."
The waiter shouted "Please come to the second floor" and watched the two beautiful young men go up, arm in arm.
After entering the room, he shook off Li Min's hand towards Qiu Bearded. Li Min didn't grab him again, and threw away his hand in disgust.
"If it weren't for you, I would have killed him when he was chasing Ande Zhong." Xiang Qiu bearded angrily and whispered.
Li Min sneered: "That's among thousands of troops. Can you kill him with a hundred steps?"
Xiang Qiubeard said proudly: "I'm ninety percent sure."
Li Min said: "If you are not sure at all, you can't do it."
Xiang Qiubeard said disdainfully: "If you are so afraid of death, why would you talk about killing someone?"
Li Min pressed her chest and rolled her eyes: "Why would Miss find such a fool? I'm going to be pissed to death."
Xiang Qiubeard only heard the word "miss", and even smiled proudly: "Which young lady admires me and sent you here? Go back and tell her that I, Xiang Qiubeard, only want to be the girl of Hongfu."
Li Min stretched out his hand to call his attendant, who quickly picked up the hot tea and gave it to him. Li Min took a sip from his hand and said feebly: "It's better to take care of the child. I think it's better to take care of the child now."
The attendant felt sorry for him and glared at the beard: "You should think more carefully before doing things. Your method of killing will not only fail to kill people, but will also kill people."
Looking at this strong boy with a curly beard, Xiang said frankly that he was not afraid of killing: "If you kill someone with thoughtful thoughts, it's not murder."
Li Min opened the window: "Quick, quick, you disappear from my eyes now, don't let me see you again."
Xiang Qiubeard didn't hesitate at all, he took two steps to the window and jumped out, "Don't follow me anymore!"
Li Min leaned on the chair and exhaled, and the attendant smiled and said: "The time for the assassination has passed this time. He won't do it. Don't worry, young master."
"There are secret guards everywhere on that street. As long as he moves, he will be surrounded by half a hit at most..." Li Min pointed to the outside and gritted his teeth, asking the follower, "Does he want to kill someone, or does he want to be killed? Miss?
Did you hear it wrong?”
The attendant smiled and said: "He is just an ordinary person. Please be more considerate of him."
While they were talking, someone knocked on the door outside, and after hearing a familiar code, they asked someone to come in.
"Master." The visitor whispered, "The latest news is that Xiang Yun is going to marry Qi Shan."
Li Min was surprised: "Can the two of them still get married?"
The visitor laughed and said, "Master, it's Qi Shan's daughter who is going to marry Xiang Yun's nephew Xiang Bei."
Li Min blinked: "That one, dead?"
"Yes, Qishan's daughter has been sent to Xiang's family a long time ago. She is said to be married to Xiang Bei, but the ceremony has not been held." The visitor said, "Now the wedding is going to be held."
Li Min laughed: "Is this a wedding or a funeral?"
………
………
Miss Qi's marriage to the late Mr. Xiang Bei was soon reported to Li Minglou.
This is not the news sent by the spies, but the memorial written by Xiang Yun Qishan calmly.
When Qi Shan sent Qi Acheng to Taiyuan Prefecture, the relevant personnel of the two families, including the third family, the Li family, knew what was going on. Qi Acheng was nominally going to be Xiang Bei's wife, but in fact his target was Xiang Nan.
The Li family was opposed to this kind of thing, and it couldn't be made public, so it was never made clear or stated. Only the closeness between Xiang and Qi Shan existed.
"Now we are drifting away from our Li family." Yuan Ji said calmly, "The Xiang family must determine a new alliance of forces."
Li Mingqi has been trapped in Shannan Road since leaving Anton, busy fighting for power in Shannan Road and Jiannan Road with her uncle and uncle.
Li Mingyu also occupies a position in the court, and has almost no contact with Xiang Yun, and they fight on their own, especially now, Xiang Yun retreats from Longyou, and Li Mingyu is driven by the female queen.
When it comes to the Li family of Jiannan Dao and Xiang Yun of Longyou, no one regards them as a whole.
Xiang Yun needs a new ally. This will no longer just be a close relationship between the Xiang and Qi families, but it will also be seen by the world to achieve the purpose of deterrence, so it needs to be made public.
"Miss, do you need to stop them?" Yuanji asked.
Qishan on the southeast road and Xiang Yun on the right side of Long. They are all generals with strong troops and good fighting skills. One person can be enough to intimidate, and if two people join forces, no one can defeat them.
This is also a demonstration against women.
Li Minglou read Xiang Yun's letter and said it very respectfully. He personally sent someone to meet the inspector on the road in advance, and the government office was also ready.
Xiang Yun said: "Longyou is very important. The remnants of the rebels have not been eliminated, so I did not dare to leave the post without permission. Fortunately, your majesty showed mercy and granted the help of the supervisory envoy, so I have the courage to leave Longyou and go home to visit my relatives."
He also gave the reason why he wanted to marry Xiang Bei at this moment, because his father had been dreaming for several days in a row, dreaming about his nephew Xiang Bei who had died young and kept crying, saying that although they were married in the yin world, they would have no descendants in the human world and they would be together.
Become a lonely ghost.
"The early death of my nephew was a pain in my father's heart. He invited someone to come and see him. He said that he wanted to have a marriage in the human world, a wife in the human world, and a son in the human world, so that he would no longer be lonely in the underworld."
This nonsense made Li Minglou laugh. He also read Qi Shan's letter. Qi Shan's letter was the same as Xiang Yun's. He expressed his gratitude to the imperial court for sending the supervisory envoy and went to greet him from a distance. He also summoned all civil and military officials to pay homage.
, with the supervisor around, he dared to leave temporarily to send his little girl off for marriage.
"When I was over fifty, I had only one daughter. She was pampered and raised. At that time, there was a fierce battle with Ande Zhong. For her safety, I was specially sent to the Xiang family for temporary refuge. Unexpectedly, the little girl was arrogant and arranged troops randomly in Taiyuan Mansion.
As a result, the city was lost, Qishan was ashamed of His Majesty, and was punished by not being able to return home."
"Mr. Xiang asked to marry and become Xiang's wife. She will always stay in Taiyuan Mansion this life, which can be regarded as atonement for her sin."
"The old wife misses her daughter, and I will go to see her off in marriage, and we will never see her again."
"I beg your Majesty for your permission."
There are dots of tears on the memorial, showing the heart of an old father.
Li Minglou said: "First they happily accepted the imperial emissary and set an example in Wei Dao, and then they respectfully wrote a letter asking to leave Wei Dao. One of them wanted to learn from the world about their father's filial piety, and the other wanted to punish their daughter to show her loyalty. Such an invitation
How can I refuse? It is unreasonable and unreasonable to refuse, and it will chill the whole world."
Yuan Ji sneered: "The two thieves are cunning!"
Li Minglu said: "Who in the world is not cunning, and they are calling me cunning. Let's just marry them. Am I afraid?"
She threw the memorial back on the table.
"Give this to Prime Minister Zhu, make a resolution and approve it in the court, and then inform other defenders to learn from it. The example of these two people cannot be wasted."
...
...
When the imperial court announced Qishan Xiang Yun's invitation to the world, Xiang Nan had just learned the news, but Xiang Yun had not told him in the previous letter.
Did you deliberately not tell him, or did you make a hasty decision and it was too late?
"It seems that my brother is more useful." He laughed at himself, "I don't have to give birth to myself, I just have to give birth to a child in the future."
After clearly telling the world who Qi Acheng is marrying, it would be impossible to arrange for him to secretly have a child with her as before.
Chen Er didn't know exactly who Qi Acheng was going to marry before, and now he doesn't have much feelings about it. He is thinking about another thing.
"Is this a formal marriage?" he asked belatedly, "Then why don't we go grab all... your brother's father-in-law's territory?"
Xiang Nan said: "You are stupid. What you are thinking about now is not just grabbing the western part of Zhejiang, but the southeastern route."
Chen Er said, "You have already passed Minglu to become your in-laws, why do you still want to go to your house to rob?"
Xiang Nan lowered his voice: "Qi Shan is not at home, he went to see off his bride."
If you don’t rush for it now, when will it be updated?
"I'm really convinced." Chen Er snorted, "I'm not convinced by you, but I admire Governor Qi. He dares to leave Southeast Road. Aren't he afraid of little thieves like you coming to rob him?"
This was his daily taunt. Xiang Nan ignored it in the past, but now he saw Xiang Nan stop.
"That's right." He looked at Chen Er, "Qishan, how dare you be so bold? And my uncle, how dare you leave Longyou Road?"
Aren't they afraid that the female queen will take the opportunity to seize the nest? Or force them to stay and trap them in An Dongcheng?
Even if the Wei Dao of the world is shaken... The Wei Dao of the world has been shaken twice so far, but nothing has been shaken...
The two Jiedu envoys were trapped in a foreign land, and there were supervisory envoys from the imperial court inside. After half a year, the Wei Dao was disrupted and half of it was controlled by the imperial court. What threat did the two allied Jiedu envoys pose?
In order to scare the court with a marriage alliance, you shouldn't take such a big risk, right?
Xiang Nan looked to the north, the autumn wind was bleak, and a sudden chill came over him.
.......
.......
Accompanied by gusts of cold wind, groups of carriages and horses from Southeast Road were already passing through Jiangnan Road. Looking at the military flags and orders, plus the notice from the court, the most important thing was to only pass through them. The Jiangnan Road guards stationed there
There was no obstruction, not even inspection, just pointing and watching the excitement.
"With so many cars, Governor Qi is really rich."
"They gave so much dowry that half of Southeast Road was emptied out."
"No wonder there are so many troops escorting us."
"It's such a wealthy family. In addition to the dowry, they also provide servants. You see these maids and maids crowding the car."
"It just looks a bit unattractive..."
"Stop being picky. You can't even get a wife, and you still know how good-looking and ugly you are."
It took half a day for the convoy to finish. The lively chatter and laughter here gradually dissipated. The checkpoint guards took over and continued their inspection.
A guard stood on the road, staring at the deep car tracks. He stretched out his hand and gestured with surprise: "What kind of gold, silver and jewelry is this? Is it so heavy?"
.......
.......
When night fell, the long convoy on the southeast road camped in the wilderness, and the horses unloaded feed and rested. The maids and women in the carriage jumped out, and under the cover of night, they walked with rough steps and made hoarse shouts like men.
.
"Hurry up and give me some water."
"I'm so thirsty."
"Can this dress be untied? It's going to strangle me."
The torches swayed as they moved around, and soldiers nearby opened the boxes and cages to check. A faint cold light could be seen shining, and swords, spears, and armor were stacked in a staggered manner.
