"So you did what you did in that big battle? Even if you knew that the defeat would affect the southwest, if my father and grandfather really died outside the pass, Ha Phuoc County would be lost in an instant, and you knew that if you lost Yichuan, there would be no hindrance to the southwest, and the South Vietnamese army would go straight in, but you still did it?"

"Lord Wu is really loyal to the Wen family. ”

Liao Chuxiu opened his lips coldly, and his words were ruthless.

Wu Shijun looked up at him, his expression was complicated: "The prince thinks that it is really just the Wen family?"

Liao Chuxiu frowned.

"Although the secret letter was in the name of Zheng Guogong's mansion, the messenger was an official post, with a gold medal for the inner servant, and when he entered the yang juniper, he used the palace coffin, and the prince thought that the situation at that time might allow me not to do it?"

At that time, although he had been working for the Wen family for many years, and had been secretly recruiting troops for them, he had left a bottom line and was never a person who had lost his conscience, how could he not know what the consequences of the defeat of the Marquis of Zhenyuan would be, and how could he not know that if Yichuan was broken and Hefu County was lost, what would become of the entire southwest land?

If it weren't for the intervention in the palace, if he wasn't forced to the point where there was no way out, how could he do such a thing......

Wu Shijun lowered his eyes and looked at the river, and his slightly hoarse voice was full of astringency: "I don't argue with the things back then, it is indeed the pass that I let the people of the western frontier into, but didn't the prince of the world think about it, if there was no tacit permission to collude with others, how could the defeat come by such a coincidence, and how could it stop outside the Yichuan Pass and not affect the southwest at all?"

Liao Chuxiu listened to Wu Shijun's words, and his eyes were cold.

He should have thought of it a long time ago, although Xiao Shu is suspicious and jealous, he is never a person who is arrogant, let alone a person who will take his own safety and play with the Great Yan River.

If it hadn't been prepared, how could the South Vietnamese army stop beyond Icheon after my father's defeat?

If it weren't for the fact that he had already had a backhand, how could the people of Western Xinjiang be expelled so quickly after they entered the customs, and even before half a month, the southwest would have returned to peace?

Six years ago, except for the death of a Zhenyuan Marquis, who even took 10,000 people under his command, there was not even the slightest injury.

The emperor still sits high in the temple, and Dayan is still flourishing.

Only, only his father died!

Wu Shijun felt the chill on Liao Chuxiu's body, and said in a low voice: "Maybe the prince doesn't believe it, I was in Yichuan during the war, and even heard the news of the death of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, and when General Helan was seriously injured, I was mixed in the camp at the pass, and I arrived at the battlefield before the people of the Helan family, and even the half of the remains of the Hou Ye sent back to Beijing were dug out of the corpse pile by my own hands." ”

"I say this, I don't want to justify anything, nor do I want to ask for forgiveness from the son, what was wrong back then is wrong, what I did is unforgivable, no matter what the son wants, it is the retribution I deserve, I only ask the son of the world to spare my family. ”

"They never knew about it, and I was the only one who did everything. ”

Liao Chuxiu laughed lowly: "I don't know, I don't know that your father will do everything possible to guard against the Wen family, if you don't know, how can he know that Liu Jingyi pinched your handle, and even wanted to threaten the Wu family with the events of the year when the family left Beijing?"

"The Wu family borrowed the light of the Wen family and enjoyed wealth for more than ten years, and now you don't know a word, you want to excuse them?"

Wu Shijun's face turned pale instantly when he heard Liao Chuxiu's words, he looked at the undisguised mockery on Liao Chuxiu's face, and remembered that his father took his clansmen to leave Beijing to join him, and handed him the letter that Liu Jingyi sent to the Wu family, so that he knew that the Wen family had no power to return to heaven, and even wanted to use the Wu family as a stepping stone to pull them into the water to bury them, so he had to rebel.

At this point, there was nothing he didn't understand.

Wu Shijun stretched out his hand and pointed at Liao Chuxiu: "It's you, you sent the letter to the Wu family!"

"If it weren't for that, how would I have known that the past was so wonderful. My father fought for half his life, fought in the south and the north for Dayan, and protected him from the Xiao family, but in the end he did not die in the hands of the enemy, but died in the tricks of the royal family.

"If it were Lord Wu today, would it give me a way out of my house?!"

Wu Shijun's original resentment and anger disappeared under Liao Chuxiu's ridicule.

If it was twenty years ago, he would definitely be able to pat his chest and say yes, but now he can't say it, although the death of the Marquis of Zhenyuan was not directly caused by him, but it has nothing to do with him, if he changes places, how can he let go of the enemy who killed his father?

Wu Shijun's whole person seemed to be pulled out, and he could barely stand with a breath, he pinched his palm fiercely and said with difficulty: "Shizi, you just said that you would give them a way out..."

"Don't worry, I mean what I say, there is indeed a way to live, it just depends on whether you are willing to go. ”

……

After a while, Liao Chuxiu turned to leave, Wu Shijun watched his back go farther and farther, his face was full of bitterness, although after knowing that Liao Chuxiu was looking for him for the matter of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, he vaguely guessed what he wanted to do, but he didn't expect him to be so bold, so bold that he wanted to pierce the day.

Once he does it, he may be able to save the life of the Wu family, but if he is defeated, let alone the Wu family, even the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion may not want to live in peace.

Wu Shijun looked at the river for a long time, until the sun set in the West Mountain, until the sky was getting dark, and for a long time, Wu Xing, who had been waiting for him in Quning but had not seen him go back for a long time, came over.

Wu Xing originally thought that Liao Chuxiu had secretly killed Wu Shijun, and brought many people with him when he came, and when he saw Wu Shijun standing at the ferry, his expression was instantly overjoyed.

He walked quickly to Wu Shijun's side and said urgently: "Big brother, are you okay, then Liao Chuxiu has embarrassed you, what has he done?"

Wu Shijun looked at Wu Xing, who was rushing, looked at the anxiety in his eyes, and said in a low voice: "Why are you here?"

"Half an hour ago, Liao Chuxiu sent someone to send his uncle and aunt back. ”

Wu Shijun's eyes darkened.

Wu Xing was puzzled and said: "Big brother, what do you say Liao Chuxiu wants to do, he sent people back in a good manner, but left his sister-in-law and Chang'er in his hands, what does he want to do, could it be that there is some conspiracy or some tricks, or what means do you want to play?"

"Big brother, what did he say about asking you to come here today, but does the court want to recruit An, or what does he want to do? Big brother, don't trust him, maybe he just wants to deceive us, we have so many people in our hands, it's a big deal that we don't want Yang Hui to retreat directly to the western frontier, how can we find a way to live..."

Wu Xing was the most impulsive, for fear that Wu Shijun would agree to the imperial court or be deceived by Liao Chuxiu, but when he said a lot, he never saw Wu Shijun answer.

"Big brother, what's wrong with you?"

Wu Shijun lowered his eyes to hide the gloom under his eyes, and said hoarsely: "It's okay, but I feel a little tired." Let's go, let's go back to the city. ”

Wu Xing wanted to speak, and even more wanted to ask Liao Chuxiu about it, but when he saw the look on Wu Shijun's face, he didn't dare to ask anymore and could only follow Wu Shijun away, but when he stepped forward and wanted Wu Shijun to lead the horse, he just wanted to turn around and talk to Wu Shijun, but he was hit the back of his neck.

Wu Xing's eyes widened, and before his eyes fell into darkness, he only heard Wu Shijun's voice in his ears.

"Brother Xing, take care. ”

……

In June of the 35th year of Chengde, Yang Hui Taishou Wu Shijun rebelled, colluded with South Vietnam to break Ha Fu County, and several wars were in turmoil, causing chaos to the people, but fortunately suppressed by the imperial court.

At the beginning of July, Liao Chuxiu, the son of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, led the troops to break the Yangjuni, and the southwest army joined forces to attack the city of Quning, Wu Shijun stood in Quning for three days, the city was broken, Wu Shijun committed suicide in the city with his parents, and left a bloody letter before his death.
