Li Xu sat at the table and looked at the map on the table carefully.
Mr. Lu came in and said: "Song Chengxuan and the Xu family stayed in Liaodong Dusi for a few days and went to Jinzhou Wei and Jianzhou Zuowei. Dudu Ma followed them all the way.
Song Chengxuan and Governor Ma took a boat out to sea together in Jinzhouwei..."
Li Xu's eyes fell on Tianjin Wei and Weihai Wei.
Song Chengxuan did not bring many people to Northern Xinjiang. In recent years, the Liaodong Dusi Guard Office was like a piece of scattered sand. Song Chengxuan was afraid that what Nuer did would be too difficult, so he wanted troops and horses to support him from the sea.
After all, Song Chengxuan has been in the southeast, and what he is good at is naval warfare.
Li Xu's eyes sunk slightly.
"Sir," Mr. Lu said, "otherwise, I will try my best to go to the two guard stations in Tianjin and Weihai to inquire about the news."
"No need," Li Xu said, "Maybe Song Chengxuan did this on purpose, just to ask us to come forward so that he could follow the clues and find all our men.
If we don't move, he won't be able to find out the clues."
He, Song Chengxuan, and Xu Qinghuan have been investigating cases together for so long that he can guess their intentions.
Mr. Lu couldn't help but hesitate: "Then...what if..."
Li Xu put away the map: "The imperial court is already suspicious of Song Chengxuan and will not send troops easily. I have plans for the future. I will figure out the size so that the imperial court's reinforcements will not come."
Mr. Lu breathed a sigh of relief. He believed in Li Xu's ability and didn't know what Li Xu would do next.
Li Xu had no intention of speaking again. Mr. Lu stepped back step by step. Li Xu was different now. What he should do was to listen to Li Xu's instructions instead of trying to figure out what Li Xu meant.
Although he has taught Li Xu, they are master and servant now, and this point cannot be exceeded.
Mr. Lu left, and Li Xu stood up and walked to the window.
Song Chengxuan and Xu Qinghuan have already gone to the Haixi tribe. When the time comes, the Haixi tribe will fall into chaos, and the two of them will definitely be entangled in Nuergan.
As soon as Nuergan's war started, Song Chengxuan would know that this was not his southeast, and how difficult it would be to appease Nuergan's various ministries.
Letting Song Chengxuan and Xu Qinghuan die in Nuergan is the best arrangement.
Xu Qinghuan's face appeared in front of Li Xu's eyes, but he quickly let the face disappear from his mind. Since she had already made a choice, she would not regret it at that moment.
Just like him, he decided to take on everything and move forward, and no one would understand his thoughts.
"Li Xu." Zhou Yue broke in from outside, and two guards came in with him.
Zhou Yue looked at the fierce appearance of the guard, and he couldn't help but feel cold in his heart. Li Xu seemed to be a different person after returning to the north. He could clearly feel Li Xu's alienation and guard against him.
That Mr. Lu is also weird. In the past, Li Xu was very respectful to Mr. Lu, but now Mr. Lu is groveling to Li Xu. Li Xu visited more than a dozen guard stations and arrested many Jian Wang gang members. At first, he even
Li Xu felt happy that Li Xu finally had his own power and status, but then he gradually felt that something was wrong and Li Xu was going too smoothly.
In addition, he felt that Li Xu was still planning other things.
Li Xu looked at the guard: "Get out!"
The guard responded and retreated.
Zhou Yue frowned: "Li Xu, is there something you didn't tell me? Those people...were all sent to you by the imperial court?" He didn't hear Li Xu mention these before leaving Beijing. Why did Li Xu come to the north?
There are so many people around Xu.
Li Xu raised his eyes and looked at Zhou Yue with a very calm look: "Zhou Yue, we have known each other for so many years, can you trust me?"
Zhou Yue was startled, then nodded: "Of course, I was suspicious of you before in the capital, but it's different now. I know what you're thinking."
"Perhaps your previous suspicions were correct," Li Xu said, "I just found out that I might have something to do with King Jian."
Zhou Yue's eyes widened in surprise: "You...what did you say?"
Li Xu's expression remained calm: "I didn't know before, but later... I also wanted to report the truth to the court, but I found that King Jian seemed to have other arrangements, which concerned the people of the entire north. If anything went wrong, he would be
It would cost tens of millions of lives and even destroy the entire Great Zhou Dynasty."
Zhou Yue didn't know what to say: "Then...what are you going to do?"
Li Xu raised his head slightly, the sun fell on his face, his eyebrows stretched, and his whole person was pure and calm: "No one will believe me if I tell you my identity. No matter what choice I make, it is wrong. I can only follow my ideas."
Act," he paused slightly, "do you know that Song Chengxuan is the crown prince of King Wei. Sooner or later, he will invade the capital and take that position. Only in this way can he rectify the name of his father, King Wei."
Zhou Yueru was struck by lightning and could not recover for a long time. What Li Xu said today surprised him more and more: "How could he be the eldest son of King Wei? Then... King Wei was not framed by King Jian for his rebellion."
Are they, they are investigating the case for...Does Miss Xu know? Marquis An Yi..."
"The Marquis of Anyi and the Prince of Wei have made an engagement long ago. If nothing happens to the Prince of Wei, Xu Qinghuan will now be the Crown Princess of Wei. They are still together, but they have just changed their identities." Li Xu smiled slightly, "They started from scratch.
Everyone knew what was going on until the end, we were the only ones left in the dark.”
He had also thought hard about this, why Xu Qinghuan would rather join forces with Song Chengxuan, because it was clear that Song Chengxuan's behavior was even more suspicious.
It took Zhou Yue a while to regain her composure: "Do they know about your relationship with King Jian?"
Li Xu nodded: "They came to Northern Xinjiang just for this matter. They will not let go until they achieve their goal. There will be a catastrophe in the future in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and I don't know how many people will die as a result."
Speaking of this, Li Xu looked at Zhou Yue: "You said, I want to be captured without mercy? These days, I have gradually taken control of Northern Xinjiang, and found that the Tatars may be planning their layout there. They waited for the chaos in Northern Xinjiang to take the opportunity to attack the city and break the pass. King Jian
There are many people holding the guard gates. If something happens to these people, Dazhou's defense line will also be breached.
I am different from King Jian. I always want to protect the overall situation in the north and keep the people away from the disaster of war. If I can make those people use me, it may not be a bad thing."
Zhou Yue said: "So you took over King Jian's men?" He had roughly guessed Li Xu's identity, although it sounded a bit unlikely.
Li Xu looked at Zhou Yue: "What should I do if you were me? Now that I will tell you the truth, will you stay and help me?"
Zhou Yue hesitated and did not speak.
"Think about it carefully," Li Xu said, "Song Chengxuan will attack me soon. Your Zhou family still has some connections in the north. You have to make a decision whether to help me or him. Before everything starts, I will tell you
Listen, I don't want you to be kept in the dark.
You have always treated me sincerely, and I cannot let you down."
"Let me think about it." After Zhou Yue said this, he stayed for a moment and slowly exited the room.
After Zhou Yue left, the guard came in and said, "Do you want to keep an eye on him?"
Li Xu shook his head: "No need."
Everyone should have their own choice, just like the Yu family, who went to work as slaves for profit. Since they have made this choice, they must bear the corresponding consequences.
He won't force anyone.
…
Miss Yu San opened the curtain and looked outside. The city gate was not far away.
"I heard that Xu Qinghuan came here a few days ago?" Miss Yu San asked Mrs. Ji.
Mrs. Ji smiled and said: "She is here, but the people in northern Xinjiang don't know her. She came quietly and left quietly. You are different."
As soon as Mrs. Ji finished speaking, Miss Yu San heard someone making a noise outside.
"This is the Yu family's carriage. Miss Yu San is here."
