Xu Qinghuan walked out of the house and saw Yu Jiang in the yard.
Yu Jiang was the emperor's personal guard. When she was detained in the capital, Yu Jiang often came to her door to question her. Every time she heard Yu Jiang come to her door, she couldn't help but feel nervous. It wasn't because she was afraid of this person, it was just that
I find it very difficult to cope with it.
Xu Qinghuan's steps were a little slow, and Song Chengxuan beside her had already stepped forward to meet her, blocking Yu Jiang's gaze towards her.
This life is different. There are people in front of her to protect her from wind and rain, and the scandals in the Li family have nothing to do with her.
"The Governor of the Song Dynasty is from Xu Gong." Yu Jiang stepped forward and saluted.
Song Chengxuan nodded.
Yu Jiang was very respectful: "Thank you, Governor Song. Your Majesty has learned about the affairs of Northern Xinjiang and mobilized people from the capital to follow Governor Song's arrangements."
Yu Jiang said and handed the document in his hand to Song Chengxuan.
Xu Qinghuan had known for a long time that Yu Jiang was a kind person. On the surface, he was respectful to others, but secretly he was cruel and ruthless, especially those who fell into his hands. He tortured them in every possible way.
Song Chengxuan was here, but Yu Jiang did not dare to be presumptuous and waited quietly for Song Chengxuan's response.
"The criminal is inside," Song Chengxuan looked towards the room, "Master Yu can go and check at any time, but something happened before."
Song Chengxuan looked at the clerk beside him. The clerk immediately stepped forward and said to Yu Jiang: "There are some clues in the case. I will report them to Lord Yu carefully."
Yu Jiang nodded and looked at Song Chengxuan again. Governor Song was wearing a dark robe, his eyes were deep and his thoughts were unpredictable.
Northern Xinjiang is unsettled, and the emperor wants the Song Governor to stabilize Changzhou. Now that the momentum is building, we cannot afford to neglect it.
Yu Jiang saluted again and led the people towards the house.
Xu Qinghuan looked at Yu Jiang's back, and Song Chengxuan reached out to grab her hand and said in a deep voice: "This person is not simple, so be careful."
She knew this, but Master Song just told her to do it. Why did he hold his hand tighter and tighter.
This man has always been aggressive in the east and west. Xu Qinghuan is considering whether to let Mr. Song make a bunk on the floor tonight. Although it is very cold in northern Xinjiang, but considering how hot and sweaty he looked while shirtless last night, most of his body bones are not afraid!
Two people entered the door.
Xu Qinghuan looked at Song Chengxuan: "What do you think the emperor will do?"
Song Chengxuan said: "Leave Li Xu in the north and take away Li Changyan and Mrs. Li. We hold the lifeblood of the Li family in our hands. We are not afraid that Li Xu will have different intentions."
There is something the emperor has not thought clearly about. Li Xu has long been prepared to hand over his parents to him, and Li Changyan and his wife have become Li Xu's pawns and can be sacrificed at any time."
This is Li Xu's strategy.
Xu Qinghuan felt that Mrs. Li would be very pleased. Mrs. Li was afraid that Li Xu would be fettered by her feelings. She went to the capital to make a pledge. Mrs. Li asked her not to lose Li Xu's face. Now Mrs. Li didn't know what to think in her heart.
…
Xu Qing'an heard something moving outside, and Meng Lingyun immediately stepped forward to report to him: "There is someone from the imperial court. The eldest lady said that this person is the emperor's personal guard. I don't need to worry about the things here. That sir..."
Meng Lingyun lowered his voice: "It's a cruel official."
"Okay, you cool official," Xu Qing'an said, kicking Li Changyan, "The road to Beijiang is long, and I am very happy today."
Xu Qing'an stood up, dug around in the mountains, and found a crumpled talisman and threw it on Li Changyan: "This is a reward for you. You once saved my fifth uncle. This talisman of mine is worth ten thousand gold. Although it is a pity to give it to you.
However, I am a generous person, so the matter between you and my fifth uncle has been canceled out. Don’t say that our Xu family doesn’t understand that injustice must be repaid, and we cannot talk about personal affairs in the face of justice.
Now we have to focus on the imperial court. If you die, it will be wiped out. If you survive by chance, the Xu family will come to settle a score with you. You must take my words to heart."
Li Changyan's face turned purple. Prince Anyi actually threatened him like this. If he survives, will the Xu family come to make up for it?
When it comes to grudges, there is no grudge at all, it is all hatred.
He finally "rescued" Xu Wu, but now it seems that it is of no use.
"Don't throw away the talisman," Xu Qing'an said, "If you lose it, I will ask you for ten thousand gold compensation."
After speaking, he stood up and walked out. This was much more fun than going to the flower boat.
As Xu Qingan walked out of the door, Li Changyan looked at Li Mao and urged in a low voice: "Bring Wang here."
Li Mao shook his head in panic.
"If you don't want to die, just do as I say," Li Changyan gritted his teeth and said, "Hurry up."
Li Mao held Mrs. Li's arm tightly: "Father can't do this."
This unfilial son, if he had known that Li Mao was so good-for-nothing, he might as well not have had a son.
Li Changyan stood up with support and walked to Mrs. Li: "Someone from the imperial court is here. They are the emperor's personal guards. It's best to tell the imperial court clearly about your personal relationship with Gao Jiansong. There are more than a hundred lives in the Li family, so we can't
I'll leave it in your hands.
When I married you..."
Li Changyan gritted his teeth when he said: "You have not helped the Li family in any way, but you have embarrassed me. I wanted to die with you, but I couldn't let go of these children. Xu'er is the most innocent one. He has just started his official career but was implicated by you. You still have some problems."
If you have a clear conscience, tell the truth."
Li Changyan said and looked at Qing'e: "The same goes for you. What you just said needs to be explained carefully to the court officials."
Qing'e nodded: "Don't worry, sir, I'm just here to tell the truth."
Li Mao's arms were shaking.
"And you," Li Changyan looked at Li Mao fiercely, "you have been with Uncle Jiang for many years, and you didn't even know that he had treason. If the court hadn't wanted to investigate the case, I would have killed you, this unscrupulous man, right now."
Li Mao couldn't help but feel his heart shrink when he saw Li Changyan's cold gaze. He believed his father's words were true. If he could get the Li family off the hook, his father would not hesitate to kill him with his own hands.
Li Mao closed his eyes and tears flowed down from the corners of his eyes. The parents he missed so much looked like this.
The mother is like this, and the father is not what he usually is. He ignores the relationship between husband and wife and father and son in order to survive.
Li Mao's whole body collapsed: "I will tell the truth." Life and death have no meaning to him now.
The door was opened, and Li Changyan immediately turned around when he heard the sound.
Mrs. Li took the opportunity to look at Qing'e: "Who asked you to come?"
Qing'e's eyes did not dodge: "I came here on my own, Madam... You might as well tell the truth now that Master Gao is gone anyway, so there is no need to cover up for him. You will only harm the Li family."
It hurt the master and several other masters."
Mrs. Li tightened her grip. If she had something personal with Gao Jiansong and admitted that Gao Jiansong sent her the letter, the Li family would naturally be fine. Song Chengxuan and Xu Qinghuan would not be kind enough to ask Qing'e to save the Li family.
It's really Li Xu. Li Xu wants to sacrifice her reputation. Has he ever thought about what kind of dilemma she will face in this way? Li Changyan will abandon her, and everyone will point fingers at her and wish she could
Die immediately, she will definitely suffer a lot for it.
Does Li Xu have other arrangements?
He will quietly take her away and support her, and after Li Xu ascends the throne, he will clear her name.
What if Li Xu doesn’t do this?
Mrs. Gao clearly wanted to kill her.
Mrs. Li couldn't feel at ease. She wanted Li Xu to know that Northern Xinjiang couldn't live without her.
Mrs. Li looked at Li Mao: "You find an opportunity to find Mother Li and ask her to come see me. I have something to tell her. At the moment... I can only do this... I can die... to keep your brothers.
"
"Mother," Li Maoru said with a lump in his throat, "are you really..."
"I didn't," Mrs. Li looked at Li Mao firmly and whispered, "I didn't, but in order to save you... I can only admit it..."
Just thinking about this made her feel as if she had been blasphemed.
She closed her eyes and bit her lips tightly. The blood slowly melted in her mouth, so bitter.
