Su Wan looked at Miss Xu and sneered. Without the protection of her mother's family, can the entire Hou family be supported by the Prince of Anyi alone?
"I really don't understand," Su Wan said, "You have such time to investigate my case, why don't you know how to plan for An Yihou? If you put more effort into your own home, maybe An Yihou will not die.
, am I going to praise you for being so smart but being misled by your cleverness, or...you are also a fool at all."
After Su Wan finished speaking, he laughed: "What good will happen to you in the end? Is it worth it?" He said as if he had seen Xu Qinghuan's death.
Anyone who opposes them will die sooner or later, let alone a little girl.
Xu Qinghuan shook his head: "You don't think so. Maybe my father has been killed in battle." At this point, she clutched the handkerchief tightly and tried to calm her heart. "But I think he is at least at ease. Many people
, many things cannot be measured by benefits and money.”
After Xu Qinghuan finished speaking, Princess Huayang ordered Han Xun: "Detain Su Wan, and remember that he cannot be allowed to die before the case is concluded. Only the laws of the Zhou Dynasty can punish him."
Han Xun responded.
When Su Wan was taken away, Xu Qinghuan stepped forward to help the eldest princess Huayang. On the surface, the eldest princess Huayang looked cold and calm, but her whole body was shaking slightly.
"I'm fine," Princess Huayang said, "go and inquire about Marquis An Yi."
After saying this, Princess Huayang stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
The mother who was in charge next to her hurriedly stepped forward to help: "Elder Princess, you haven't slept for several days. It's terrible if this continues. Now that everything is clear, you should take care of yourself."
Princess Huayang gathered her strength and waved to Xu Qinghuan: "Don't worry about me. The most difficult time is over. Everything will get better in the future."
Xu Qinghuan nodded, without Su Wan's calculations, the rest was up to Princess Huayang herself.
The steward helped Princess Huayang into the house, and Xu Qinghuan led the people out of the yard.
"Miss Xu," Wang Yuchen stepped forward and said, "are you going to ask for news from the Marquis? There is my Wang family's boat from here to the river. It will be more convenient for you to go by boat. Unfortunately, I can't follow you now.
You go."
After Wang Yuchen finished speaking, he looked at the yamen beside him: "I'm going to the yamen to explain the situation and cooperate with the yamen to find out everything, so that the Wang family and I can be completely free from suspicion, otherwise it will cause chaos to the yamen at a time like this..."
Xu Qinghuan nodded.
Wang Yuchen wanted to say something to comfort Xu Qinghuan, but he only felt someone crowding around him. He looked over again and saw Xu Qing'an's big face.
If Wang Er hadn't been running around with him, how could he have fallen behind and allowed Song to take advantage of the situation? Wang Er still had the nerve to come over to him at a time like this. If he hadn't been in the mood now, he would have taken Wang Er's arm and pulled this person away.
The disciple fell out.
"Brother Xu," Wang Yuchen bowed and saluted Xu Qing'an, "you should take more care."
Wang Yuchen said and stepped back.
"Let's go, brother." Xu Qinghuan shouted and got on the carriage first.
Wang Yuchen kept watching the Xu family's carriage disappear from sight.
…
It was quiet outside the carriage. There was no sound of Xu Qingan and Zhang Zhenren bickering. The atmosphere was very depressing. Even Feng Chu stopped eating and sat there nervously, clutching her handkerchief.
"Sister, you said my father is really..." Xu Qing'an's voice was hoarse, and the corners of his eyes were wet with anxiety.
Xu Qinghuan didn't know what to say to her brother. Su Wan came to Jiangyin from the sea and should know the situation at sea. Moreover, after her father went on the expedition, he did not send back any news. In addition, she had been uneasy for the past two days.
…
"We'll know when the time comes."
It took a long time for Xu Qing'an to say a few words: "The news may not all be true. Anyway, you have to see people alive and dead. The old man left in a majestic manner. He has to come back victorious, otherwise I will laugh at him for the rest of his life."
."
…
The Changzhou general soldiers ran around all day and finally escaped back to the commander's ship.
"Come here, prepare water..." He had to take off his armor first, and then wiped the sweat from his body. Maybe he could think of a countermeasure when he calmed down.
Not hearing the voice of the guard, the Changzhou commander frowned slightly, but before he could think of anything else, he had already walked into the cabin.
The strange thing is that the soldiers did not come forward to serve him immediately. Just when the Changzhou general was about to take action, he found a man sitting in the commander's seat. Who dared to step over and sit there in his place?
"Who is it?" Changzhou Commander-in-Chief said immediately.
The man turned his head and looked at Changzhou's commander-in-chief, who turned out to be Xue Chen.
"My lord," Xue Chen said calmly, "where are you coming back from?"
The Changzhou general's eyes widened immediately: "Xue Chen, how dare you sit in the commander's position? This is Changzhou, not Quanzhou, so you are not afraid of me punishing you for trespassing."
"You haven't answered my question yet," Xue Chen asked, "Where were you just now?"
"Of course I will go rescue the Prince Consort," Changzhou Commander-in-Chief straightened his back, "Fortunately, I went in time so that the Prince Consort could escape."
"So, the commander-in-chief is the reinforcements of the prince-in-law? So he did not stay behind to fight against the Japanese with the Zhou soldiers, but sent the prince-son-in-law back safely."
The commander-in-chief of Changzhou sneered: "That's natural. If there is no Prince Consort in Changzhou, who can take the decision in this war?" No matter how powerful Xue Chen is, can he still fight against the emperor's relatives? If he blocks the Prince Consort in front, who can?
If you still want to embarrass him, you must weigh the status of Princess Huayang in the heart of the Holy Emperor.
"It seems everything is clear," Xue Chen stood up, "The reason why the prince-in-law is able to control the situation in Changzhou is because he has the general soldiers of Changzhou working around for him."
The Changzhou General Soldier felt that what Xue Chen said was right. He was just looking forward to his consort. The Changzhou General Soldier thought about it and raised his head with a proud expression.
"Here comes someone."
Hearing Xue Chen's loud shout, Changzhou's commander trembled with fright: "What are you going to do?"
"Capture the White Dragon King's accomplices." As soon as Xue Chen finished speaking, two generals wearing armor walked in.
Before the Changzhou commander realized what had happened, his body was already tightly suppressed.
"Xue Chen, you are going to rebel..." Changzhou's general soldier shouted loudly, "Come here, come here, take down these rebels, come here."
"There is no rebellion here," Xue Chen's eyes were intense, "There are just people who are treasonous and collaborating with the enemy."
"Who..." Changzhou General Soldier looked to the left and right, "Who are you talking about?"
"Of course it's you. You have just admitted that you are on the same road as the prince-in-law, and you will obey his arrangements in everything," Xue Chen said, walking towards the Changzhou General Soldier, "and the prince-in-law... is the real White Dragon King."
"What?" Changzhou Commander-in-Chief was completely stunned. He looked at Xue Chen blankly and realized that Xue Chen did not mean to joke, "You framed me... how dare you frame the prince-in-law."
"Do you think I dare?" Xue Chen took out a small box and opened it. There was a token inside, "This is the emperor's secret order. It was sent by Princess Huayang and the Minister of War. Now the prince-in-law has been
Arrested and imprisoned, now it is your turn, Commander-in-Chief."
Impossible, Changzhou General Soldier's eyes widened, how could this be possible, but this secret order was absolutely true, it didn't look like a fake, and... he raised his head and saw someone walking in. He was wearing the official uniform of the Minister of War.
"Chief Soldier of Changzhou, have you seen the Japanese fleeing without fighting?" the Minister of War asked, "leaving all the Zhou soldiers in front of the Japanese."
The Changzhou general soldier's lips were trembling and he was speechless. He did this, but he was doing it to save the prince-in-law. He couldn't say this at this moment, because the prince-son-in-law was the White Dragon King.
What exactly is going on.
The Changzhou General Soldier was so frightened that he could not utter a word. Even the Minister of War could not help but shake his head: "I never expected that the General Soldier would be like this."
The Changzhou General Soldier was taken down, and the Minister of War bowed to Xue Chen: "Now Changzhou still needs to rely on Mr. Xue to stabilize the situation."
Xue Chen said: "This is the duty of a minister. After taking over the Changzhou Navy, I will immediately send reinforcements to fight the Japanese to the death."
The Minister of War did not dare to delay Xue Chen any longer and led the people out of the cabin.
Xue Chen immediately summoned the generals to discuss matters, and the reinforcement fleet had already set sail before dark. Although he watched the ship gradually move away, Xue Chen still frowned.
This battle is not easy. I hope the young master can return safely.
"Military advisor," the deputy general stepped forward and whispered, "The eldest lady of the Anyi Marquis Mansion has been waiting for news on the shore."
Xue Chen said: "Miss Xu asked someone to ask about the situation of Marquis An Yi?"
The lieutenant general shook his head: "No, I just kept waiting there. I must have known that the military advisor was busy."
Marquis An Yi's ship never came back, and they rushed to send reinforcements. Miss Xu must have thought about it. In fact, what he knew was that Marquis An Yi's ship sank, and Marquis Anyi was in serious danger.
Unless, the young master comes to help.
However, in his opinion, the young master should not help An Yihou. What happened in the past is in the past. How much determination does it take to save such a person? How can people forget the scenes in the Palace of Wei back then, let alone stabbing him with a sword?
The person who entered the young master's chest was none other than An Yihou's deputy general.
"Military advisor, a ship has returned. There are wounded soldiers on board, and there seems to be Marquis Anyi."
Xue Chen was shocked. Many things happened recently that were beyond his expectation.
…
Xu Qinghuan followed the deputy general who led the way to the makeshift guardhouse on the beach. Her heart seemed to jump out of her throat and her palms were covered with sweat.
As soon as she walked in the door, she saw her father lying on the bed.
My father's eyes were closed tightly, his body was wrapped in cloth, and blood was already showing through.
"How is my father?" Xu Qinghuan's voice was hoarse.
The doctor hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Master Hou's injury is not serious, but fortunately it is not fatal, but you can't be careless. Let's see how it goes in the past two days."
Xu Qinghuan nodded and was about to go in to see her father. She raised her head and asked the deputy general: "Did Lord Song save my father? How is Lord Song doing now?"
