Chapter 681 Past Life Special Chapter Relative (Part 2)
Xu Qinghuan nodded. She wanted to finish her words in one breath, but unfortunately she didn't have the energy. The more anxious she was, the worse she coughed.
Just when she felt uncomfortable, a hand began to gently pat her back. She lowered her head and saw the pair of boots embroidered with cloud patterns and the sapphire blue robe on the ground.
Song Hou.
Xu Qinghuan clutched the hem of her clothes tightly, closed her eyes, and followed Dr. Liao's instructions to slowly calm down and control her breathing...
After a while, she opened her eyes and turned to thank Song Chengxuan: "Thank you, Song Hou."
For some reason, at this moment, Marquis Song no longer looked so cold and ruthless in her eyes, and his abyss-like eyes shone with concern.
At this moment, he was no longer the man who controlled everything from above, but looked like an ordinary man.
"Don't worry," Song Chengxuan said, "You can say it slowly. Although the situation outside is tense, the clues you find will definitely be related to the overall situation."
Xu Qinghuan nodded.
Song Chengxuan brought a cup of tea to her: "Drink some water to moisten your throat."
Xu Qinghuan smiled gratefully and accepted Song Chengxuan's kindness. He had really helped her a lot. If Song Hou revealed the news that she was still alive, the morale of Li Xu's troops would not be so high. Now the whole north knew that Li Xu would definitely
After avenging her, he changed into his mourning clothes.
She will expose the Li family's plan, but only at the most appropriate time.
"The Li family has been trying to win over Nuergan's deputy generals and General Manager Qian through me. When my father was alive, he had been in Nuergan's stronghold for many years. After he resigned from the military power, he asked his deputy generals to guard the pass. These deputy generals were born in Nuergan since they were young.
, are very familiar with Nuergan, so even if my father was imprisoned, the court did not replace these lieutenants..."
Xu Qinghuan took a few breaths when he said this: "After I went to Northern Xinjiang, I interacted with those deputy generals and learned some inside stories. When the late emperor was in power, Nuerqian had always been uneasy and was regarded as a serious problem by the late emperor.
After he ascended the throne, he personally led a military expedition and finally pacified Nuerqian...and then..."
Seeing sweat forming on her forehead, Song Chengxuan ordered: "Hel Madam Yu down to her knees."
Xu Qinghuan did not refuse.
She had taken medicine before coming here, but she still underestimated her current situation. The most important thing now was to explain the matter in Northern Xinjiang clearly, and she had no time to take care of these details.
Yong Ye immediately brought his mother in charge through the door.
It was only a few steps, Xu Qinghuan walked very slowly, and even when he was lying on the ground, he couldn't help but gasp.
"Is Mr. Liao here?" Song Chengxuan looked at Yong Ye.
Yongye nodded: "Waiting in the yard."
Song Chengxuan said: "Let Mr. Liao diagnose your pulse first."
"Let me finish my words first," Xu Qinghuan shook his head slightly, "I know... about my own body. There is no need for Song Hou to worry about me. Now is not the time."
When she is stubborn, her chin will be raised slightly. Although her body is weak, her eyes are very firm.
If you screw her around, even if you achieve your goal in the end, I'm afraid it will only add a lot of hardship.
Song Chengxuan sat down again and followed Xu Qinghuan's words: "The former emperor pacified Nuergan and set up a guard station in Nuergan. The former emperor also appointed local leaders of various ethnic groups to be in charge of seals and select their children to serve as officials. Therefore, the leaders of various ethnic groups were very attached to the imperial court.
I’m grateful, Nuergan’s stability has something to do with this.”
Xu Qinghuan nodded: "Actually, the late emperor did not want this at first. When the late emperor pacified Nuerqian, Nuerqian had been in chaos for many years. The imperial troops came, and some leaders of the local tribes sent their children to help the court. The Great Zhou Dynasty
The great victory in Nuergan was due to the contributions of these people.
After taking control of Nuergan, the late emperor saw that many local men were brave and good at fighting, and he had an idea in mind. He wanted to use the banquet to imprison the leaders of various tribes and completely control the entire Nuergan. If anyone dared to resist, he would kill some of the young and strong men.
men, to prevent them from becoming too strong and harmful to the Zhou Dynasty."
Song Chengxuan narrowed his eyes, which was consistent with the late emperor's consistent style.
Xu Qinghuan continued: "But those people once led the Zhou army into Nuerqian, and some of them made great military exploits in the Zhou army. Now that Zhou has vested interests, it is unbenevolent to turn against them, so...my father...
...the leaders were not arrested, so the late emperor became furious and wanted to deal with my father.
Those leaders got the news from nowhere, came to plead for mercy, and swore an oath to help Zhou capture the Onan River, and their descendants would guard the Onan River for generations.
The late emperor left my father in northern Xinjiang and ordered him to capture the Onan River and then return to Beijing for an interview. He also asked my father to write down a document. If Nuergan made any mistake, it would mean that he had treason with various tribesmen of Nuergan.
The entire Xu family will be rectified by the court.
My father had been in northern Xinjiang for many years, and finally captured the Onan River, and then guarded it with his lieutenants. Later, the political situation changed again, and my father was recalled to the capital. Those lieutenants were originally from Nuergan, so they naturally stayed."
Xu Qinghuan pursed his dry lips: "When I was in the Li family, the Li family tried every means to win over the deputy generals. After my accident, the Li family went to Northern Xinjiang to ask several deputy generals to lead troops for help. Before I went to Northern Xinjiang, several deputy generals had already agreed.
Help the Li family...
If a few lieutenants move, the entire situation in Nuergan will also change.
Whatever the Li family wants, all the slaves can do it.
If Li Xu really gets slaves..."
Song Chengxuan knew what Xu Qinghuan meant. Li Xu would be more powerful if he got Nuerqian. You must know that he could become king just by taking Nuerqian. Even if Li Xu lost to the court, he could retire to Nuerqian to recuperate.
Xu Qinghuan said: "This is not the most important thing. A highly respected patriarch in Nuergan was assassinated. I suspect it was Tatars. The Li family should have been prepared. If Nuergan is willing to help Li Xu, Li Xu will be killed."
Take them under your command, and if they refuse, ask the Tatars for help...
The Li family had long known about Song Hou's abilities and even more clearly about the military strength in the southeast. Li Xu was anxious to send troops because he was afraid that Song Hou would grow stronger and there would be no chance for him in the future.
There are bound to be risks in taking action in a hurry, and one of them is to communicate with the enemy inside and outside. If you don't do it well, you will lead the wolf into the house. In recent years, the Tatars have been peaceful on the surface, but I heard that their tribes have been fighting each other, and there was a king who unified several tribes.
, the Great Zhou Dynasty is in the midst of civil strife, and if someone spies on it, the consequences will be disastrous."
Song Chengxuan already understood what Xu Qinghuan meant: "What are you going to do?"
Xu Qinghuan raised his head: "Master Hou, I am not going to die soon. The last thing is to reveal the Li family's plan. Nuergan cannot fall into the hands of Li Changyan. The Onan River has been my father's half-life effort, and it is also the northern part of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
If this important pass were captured by the Tatars, I don’t know how many people would suffer.
I will go to Nuerqian, there will inevitably be unrest in the north, and then the Marquis can take the opportunity to repel the Li family's troops."
After saying this, Xu Qinghuan smiled: "After this incident, if Northern Xinjiang is overwhelmed and the Onan River is in trouble, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of it at that time... Please ask the Marquis to help take care of it."
I'm afraid I couldn't take care of it at that time...
What she meant was that before that, she was no longer alive.
Once she left, she never came back.
Song Chengxuan's heart palpitated, pain hit him, and he couldn't help but frown. He heard her say: "Thank you, Mr. Marquis... for letting me die a worthy death."
But he didn't want her to die. At this moment, he wanted to lock her in this room, seal everything, and not allow anyone to come, and she was not allowed to go out again.
If only she could sit here for a long time.
Because this time, she left and really never came back.
There was a burst of thunder outside, and heavy rain fell immediately.
Xu Qinghuan got up and prepared to go to his residence.
Seeing her walking past him, Song Chengxuan stood up and took an umbrella from the steward's hand.
"I send you."
Before she could refuse, he had already strode out.
Open the umbrella and slowly move it to the top of her head, tightly covering her whole body.
