Qingtian Xiong's plan was perfect. He encouraged the northern princes to assist the Sixteenth Emperor in his rebellion. He would definitely receive a heavy reward if the plan was successful. If it failed, he would also be able to reap the benefits and control the entire northern territory.
Unfortunately, Qingtian Xiong calculated countless things, but missed Zhou Xingyun.
Why do you say that? Because Qingtian Xiong colluded with the Xuanyang Sect and used extraordinary means to control the people in the north. Without Zhou Xingyun, the residents of Shiyuan City would eventually become slaves of the Xuanyang Sect.
As the saying goes, if you don't die in silence, you will explode in silence.
People in the world can be divided into two categories, one will die in silence, and the other will explode in silence.
These two types of people are not eternal. People who originally died in silence may suddenly explode due to certain opportunities. And some people who want to explode in silence may finally decide to remain silent due to various world conditions.
death in.
If Zhou Xingyun and Han Qiumiao had not come to the north and rescued the villagers in Shiyuan City and its suburbs, they would undoubtedly have lived in the present with humiliation and died in silence.
However, Zhou Xingyun came, Han Qiumiao came, the Nether Sect came, and the Wulin Alliance came. Some people dared to risk the disapproval of the world and stand up to fight against the evil sect. This was a spark that gave the people of Shiyuan City hope.
, launched a movement to counterattack Xuanyang Sect.
At this moment, the villagers of Shiyuan City and the suburbs of Shiyuan City, with the help of Zhou Xingyun and others, started a prairie fire under a spark of fire, spontaneously organized a volunteer army to fight against the Xuanyang cult. Once this fire was ignited, they would be persecuted by the Xuanyang cult.
People must respond to each other and spread anger to each other.
Those who originally resigned themselves to death in silence will, at this moment, be pulled by the hope of the stars and burst out with the will to fight against the Xuanyang cult.
You can't just sit back and do nothing because you are afraid of not being able to do it, because success and victory will always favor those with courage. For the people of Shiyuan City, Zhou Xingyun and Han Qiumi are the source of courage and inspire their fighting spirit.
Opportunity.
The refugees from the northern border who had been sheltered by Han Qiumiao in the Wulin Alliance camp now sincerely want to protect this princess who loves the people like a son. They stand up without hesitation and become the initiators of the Ishihara City Volunteer Army, working with the northern border state.
The animal husbandry is the enemy.
Zhou Xingyun learned about the situation in Shiyuan City from Mu Ya's mouth. With the masters of the Martial Arts League in charge of the overall situation, they naturally did not need to worry about Xuanyang Sect disciples leaving and returning.
The two of them were talking as they walked, and in a blink of an eye they arrived at the slum area in the south of Lingdu City. Zhou Xingyun visually saw that the soft girl Mu Ya was leading the way, and did not guard himself at all. He couldn't help but feel evil, and suddenly stretched out his hands from behind to attack the soft girl's side.
waist.
The soft girl Mu Ya's body is very sensitive, and she is particularly afraid of being tickled. Zhou Xingyun suddenly played a prank on her and gave her such a tickle, which immediately made the soft girl jump up and down like a big white rabbit: "Hey...! What... what are you doing?
"
Mu Ya looked at Zhou Xingyun with slight horror. She was well aware of Zhou Xingyun's ability to manipulate people. She recalled that during the Young Heroes Conference, Zhou Xingyun used pedicures to force her to tell the information about Fengtian City, but she almost lost her mind.
"It's nothing, I'm just teasing you." Zhou Xingyun chuckled. The soft girl's voice was very sweet and annoying. He liked hearing her squeak the most.
"We're hiding in the dilapidated hut ahead of us, turning left." Mu Ya warned Zhou Xingyun, then as if she was afraid that Zhou Xingyun would continue to tickle her, she quickly quickened her pace and walked towards the alley on the left.
When Zhou Xingyun saw this, he immediately curled his lips in displeasure. He also wanted to take advantage of the uninhabited slum area to prank the weak girls along the way. Unexpectedly, Xu Zhiqian and others were actually hiding in the slum area.
The dilapidated hut at the entrance is really disappointing.
Zhou Xingyun caught up with Mu Ya and came to an abandoned thatched hut.
Upon learning of Zhou Xingyun's arrival, the resting boys and girls got up one after another.
"You are all here." Zhou Xingyun looked around at his friends in the room. Unexpectedly, Yu Wushuang and Zhou Jian had so many people, not one of them was missing, that they had all sneaked into Lingdu City.
"Wherever mother goes, I will go." The little girl Zhou Yao's standard answer remained unchanged for thousands of years. Zhou Xingyun nodded happily. The little girl is indeed Nangong Ling's good daughter. She is loyal to her mother.
Jian. The only flaw is, why don't you just go with 'Dad'?
"Second Junior Brother, how are you doing in the enemy's house?"
As soon as Zhou Xingyun stepped into the dilapidated house, Tang Yuanying greeted him tenderly, held his hand and asked with concern. After learning that Zhou Xingyun and Han Qiumiao had fallen into the hands of the Northern Territory Shepherd, the little woman was anxious.
Fortunately, Zhou Xingyun has many experts around him, so although Yuan Ying was uneasy, she was able to stabilize her mentality and did not rush to the doctor like a headless fly.
"We are all safe." Zhou Xingyun hugged the girl gently. Now Tang Yuanying really regarded him as the sky. If the sky fell, she would be panicked.
When Tang Yuanying held Zhou Xingyun's hand just now, Zhou Xingyun could even notice that this little woman was afraid that something would happen to him, and her hands were trembling. Furthermore, the girl's beautiful big eyes had faint red threads and dark circles, which she probably had in recent days.
Didn't sleep well.
The most important point is that after hearing Zhou Xingyun's arrival, Yuan Ying's first reaction was to run to him. This shows that this little woman was worried about him and had not fallen asleep even in the early hours of the morning.
Of course, it is not that Xu Zhiqian, Mu Hanxing and other women are not worried about Zhou Xingyun, but they all trust him and do not think Zhou Xingyun will be in danger. Tang Yuanying, a stupid little woman, will be confused if she cares about Zhou Xingyun. She is worried about Zhou Xingyun in vain.
After a while, everyone in the broken house got up, lit the firewood piled in the house, and sat around talking.
"When did you meet up?" Zhou Xingyun was curious about how Xunxuan, Tang Yuanying and others met up with Xu Zhiqian and others.
"I learned from Elder Mu Yan that after you were taken away by the Northern Territory Shepherd, we set off to chase you the next day." Xun Xuan replied briefly. They heard two pieces of news from Elder Mu Yan.
The first is that Han Qiumiao and Zhou Xingyun were taken away by Qingtian Xiong. The second is that Xu Zhiqian, Mu Hanxing and others were not among them.
After Xunxuan heard the news, she couldn't help but guess that Xu Zhiqian and others might have not returned to Shiyuan City for some reason, but were secretly following Zhou Xingyun and others.
Therefore, Xunxuan summoned Qin Shou, Xia Jier, Zhou Jian and others the next day to chase the guards of the northern border city, hoping to meet up with Xu Zhiqian and others.
Tens of thousands of Northern City guards passed by the official road, and they could track their movements with just a little exploration.
Since the Beijing City guards moved slowly, Xunxuan and others could follow their movements until they reached Lingdu City.
After Xunxuan and others judged that the opponent's destination was Lingdu City based on the movement direction of the Northern City guards, they sneaked into the city half a day in advance. Immediately afterwards, Qin Shou, Xuan Jing, Zhou Jian and others waited at the city gate without leaving.
Wang Zhizhi met Xu Zhiqian and his party, and the two parties successfully reunited.
"Actually, you don't need to come. You can stay in Shiyuan City and join Elder Mu Yan to unite the local people to revolt and comprehensively fight back against the Xuanyang Sect." Zhou Xingyun felt that there was no need for Xunxuan and others to come. If they stayed in Shiyuan City, they might be more vulnerable.
good.
"Some things I
We must find out." Xunxuan said coldly...
"What's wrong with you?" Zhou Xingyun felt something was wrong. Sister Xunxuan spoke in a cold tone today, just like when the sixteenth son of the emperor was mentioned before, the girl would inadvertently exude a chill.
"Although my family was killed by the Emperor's Sixteenth Son, the cause of all this was the Northern Territory Mu Qingtian Xiong. He betrayed my family, united with the northern princes to frame my father, and let the Emperor's Sixteenth Son
Hire someone to falsely preach the imperial edict and harm my whole family."
The past is too painful to look back on, and Xunxuan rarely mentions her past. Even though she has had a relationship with Zhou Xingyun, she rarely talks about the sad things of the past to Zhou Xingyun.
However, Xunxuan plans to talk to Zhou Xingyun today...
When Xunxuan was still very young, her father was informed by the late emperor and was ordered to serve as an official in the Northern Territory. His official position was Northern Territory Supervisor and Censor. His position was equivalent to the current Northern Territory Prefectural Shepherd, and he was responsible for supervising the northern princes.
However, Xunxuan's father did not hold military power like Qingtian Xiong. When he discovered that the northern princes secretly conspired with the emperor's sixteen sons to rebel, spread treacherous public opinion in northern towns, and slandered the current empress dowager and prince, Xunxuan's father decided to
Return to Beijing to complain.
Unfortunately, before Xunxuan's father could take action, the sixteenth son of the emperor hired someone to falsely preach the edict and executed Xunxuan's family.
The reason why Xunxuan was able to escape was because her father knew that her life would be in danger and secretly sent her out of the north before the incident happened.
It is true that although Xunxuan was still very young and her memory was very vague, she still vaguely remembered that Qingtian Xiong was a military commander in the north and had a good relationship with her father. He often visited her home and discussed matters with her father.
.
Qingtian Xiong knew Xunxuan's father and had collected enough evidence to prepare to return to Beijing to report the conspiracy of the northern princes and the sixteenth son of the emperor. As for the final result, everyone can see it...
The princes in the north jointly submitted a memorial, slandering Xunxuan's father for corruption and perverting the law. The emperor's sixteenth son even hired someone to falsely preach the edict, beheaded first and then reported, killing Xunxuan's family.
Later, the sixteenth son of the emperor claimed in the court that Xunxuan's father fled in fear of crime, and eventually refused to obey orders and died at the hands of law enforcement gendarmes.
Since the power of the sixteenth son of the emperor was overwhelming at that time, although Taifu Xu and his officials were furious, they could do nothing about it. After all, the evidence of the conspiracy between the sixteenth son of the emperor and the northern princes was in the hands of Xunxuan's father, and Xunxuan's family
The family was brutally exterminated, and its evidence was naturally destroyed.
After that, the sixteenth son of the emperor used Qingtian Xiong to report corrupt officials, and begged the Empress Dowager for a reward to let Qingtian Xiong, the northern city guard general, take over the power of the censor, and then promoted him step by step, and finally became what he is today.
The northern state pastoralist.
If the sixteenth prince of the emperor was the real culprit who killed Xunxuan's family with a knife, then Qingtian Xiong was undoubtedly the culprit who encouraged his crime. Therefore, Xunxuan's hatred for Qingtian Xiong was no more than that of Huang Shixiong.
Six Zi Di...
Moreover, Xunxuan still vaguely remembers some things. Qingtian Xiong once shamelessly proposed marriage to her father, hoping to marry her as a concubine. However, her father politely refused the marriage. First, Xunxuan was very young at the time and only
She is a little girl. Secondly, Qingtian Xiong is much older than Xunxuan, so it is not easy for them to be together.
However, Xunxuan's father also knew that his daughter was so beautiful that it was not surprising that Qingtian Xiong would be moved, so the matter was left undisturbed.
What's more, Qingtian Xiong didn't take his rejection of the marriage proposal to heart, and still visited his residence in a very friendly manner every day.
Admittedly, this was just wishful thinking of Xunxuan's father, but the result was that Qingtian Xiong faked benevolence and righteousness to win the trust of Xunxuan's father, and betrayed his friends to seek glory at the critical moment.
