As usual, Song Chengxuan went out on horseback at dawn, practiced horseback shooting and danced with swords in the school grounds for a while, then came back to take a shower, and then headed to the study.
It was as if nothing had happened.
Yong Ye retracted his head tremblingly. He was full of worry that night, and his neck seemed much longer than usual.
After the young master went to Xu's house yesterday, he felt uncomfortable for a while, so he reported it to the young master and used urine to escape all the way back to the small courtyard.
The young master finally came back at night, but he didn't say anything and just went to sleep.
Looking at this situation, if there is a war, the young master will definitely abandon his armor and be completely defeated. I don't know if there will be a chance to regain his glory.
"What is this?" Song Chengxuan looked at the food on the table.
"The cook said that eating these is popular in Changzhou now. Although it doesn't look good and tastes hard to swallow, but..." Yongye looked at his nose and heart, not daring to say the next words.
This thing removes fire and is good for the body. He was afraid that the young master would get the root of his disease and leave a lifelong regret.
In order to avoid being beaten to death, Yongye slipped out quietly.
Looking at the light food on the table, Song Chengxuan narrowed his eyes.
…
The one who really got angry was Xue Chen.
I just saw the young master off, and when I woke up, someone sent me a secret letter, asking him to send another person to Ryukyu. The young master took Yong Ye, Zhao Tong and others to change the route to Changzhou.
Ever since Xue Chen assisted Song Chengxuan, he had never encountered such a situation. In his opinion, the young master was calmer than anyone else. There was a time when he felt that he was of no use as a strategist.
Something big must have happened, otherwise the young master would not have arranged it like this. Xue Chen immediately sent someone to find out the news, and waited for a long time before finding out.
"The White Dragon King suddenly sent troops to attack Changzhou."
Hearing this, Xue Chen immediately opened the map: "How is the war going now? We can see the White Dragon King's changes ahead."
The deputy general whispered: "No."
No? That means the war has temporarily subsided? So quickly!
The young master is going to Changzhou regardless of this. The situation in Changzhou should be very urgent. If we don't intervene, it will cause a big disaster.
Unless the young master made a mistake in his judgment.
wrong……
Xue Chen took back the map. Based on his understanding of the young master, this matter was by no means simple. The young master gave up the opportunity to make good friends with the King of Ryukyu and did something that was naturally more important than a Ryukyu.
Xue Chen frowned and thought. After the young master came back from the capital, he seemed to have returned to his previous appearance. If anything was abnormal, it was that he was even more taciturn.
If you think about it more carefully, you will find more problems. Yong Ye turned around and ran away when he saw him, and Zhang Zhenren never returned to Quanzhou.
Xue Chen's hands tightened slightly. He was careless. He thought everything was peaceful despite so many strange things.
Could it be related to that woman?
The woman should be in the capital. The young master went to Changzhou this time. He has made repeated miscalculations. He should have investigated this matter when he knew it. If he had done so, he would not be helpless now.
Xue Chen was frowning and thinking, when the people around him came in and reported: "Master, I have found out the news. The young master came to Beijing from Fengxiang all the way. He went with the eldest daughter of the Anyi Houfu. After arriving in the middle of the capital, he investigated with the eldest daughter Xu.
Zhang family case."
Xue Chen's eyes jumped. Marquis Anyi was leading troops in Changzhou...
Since the young master left Quanzhou, he has always had contacts with the Anyi Hou Mansion. This is by no means a coincidence.
Could it be that the woman that the young master likes is the eldest lady of the Anyi Hou Mansion?
How can this be.
Anyihou is a capricious villain. The young master only has resentment towards the Anyihou Mansion and would never want to have anything to do with them. Therefore, even if he heard a few words before, he had never thought about it like this.
If the young master really went to Changzhou for the Anyi Hou Mansion, there would really be big trouble. Being able to put down the grudges from more than ten years ago is definitely not a whim.
Does the Anyi Houfu know the identity of the young master?
If you knew...could it be that you set a trap on purpose and just waited for the young master to get in, using a honey trap?
Thinking of this, Xue Chen became even more flustered.
He should go to Changzhou. He couldn't just let the young master be manipulated like this. He wanted to see what kind of strategy could make the young master fall into the trap.
…
Mrs. Xie was frightened out of her wits after what happened to Zhang Xing. When she arrived at the Yamen, she revealed everything, and the entire Xie family was also investigated.
Although the war broke out in Changzhou, people were panic-stricken. After such a big case, the people all gathered to watch.
There was an old woman in the crowd. She took a deep look at the Yamen and seemed to want to walk in. However, she quickly changed her mind, lowered her head, and turned around to leave without saying a word.
After coming out of the government office, she walked all the way to Xie's house. Watching the government officials coming and going at the door of Xie's house, the sad cries of the Xie family reached her ears, and the old woman raised her lips slightly.
It wasn't until the door of Xie's house was sealed that the old woman returned to her residence.
After closing the door, the old woman walked into the house and knelt down in front of a memorial tablet. The smile on her face became deeper and she opened her mouth as if to whisper: "Wuxiang, someone has avenged you. Are you happy?"
?
Did you know that Mr. Xie and his son were both sent to prison? They committed the crime of collaborating with the enemy. Even if the Xie family comes forward, it will not help. I have been looking forward to it every day for these years, and finally God has a vision.
Wu Niang, it’s time for you to close your eyes.”
After the old woman finished speaking, tears flowed down from the corners of her eyes, and her voice became hoarse: "I heard that it was the White Dragon King who was him. I wanted to go and find out more, but... I feel that it doesn't make any sense now, and I also
If you're tired, just follow you two and let's reunite under the spring."
After the old woman finished speaking, she took out a dagger from her sleeve and stabbed it into her heart.
She was ready, and this thrust took almost all her strength.
There was a crisp sound, and the old woman felt her fingers go numb, and the dagger fell to the ground.
The old woman opened her eyes in surprise and immediately looked around, only to see a dark-faced middle-aged man standing behind her.
"Who are you?" the old woman shouted, "Why are you here."
The middle-aged man didn't speak, and the old woman just stood up.
"I have something to ask you." A pleasant voice sounded, and the girl appeared at the door of the house, looking at the old woman with a pair of clear eyes.
The old woman subconsciously said: "You...what do you want to ask?"
"What is your relationship with Mrs. Xie? Do you know her natal brother? He is also known as the White Dragon King outside."
"No... I don't know you," the old woman immediately denied without thinking, "Who is Mrs. Xie? What does it have to do with me? You have found the wrong person. Get out and get out of here."
Xu Qinghuan looked at the curling smoke on the incense burner: "Who is written in this ranking?"
