"Why me? You, how dare you believe me?"

Zhang Qianzong let out a low and hoarse voice of questioning in his throat.

Why is it him? He's just a man who was forced to surrender to the Qin army.

The imperial court did not tolerate it, and the Qin army was vigilant and betrayed his faith and glory for half of his life.

Rong Ma spent half his life, only to fall into the humiliation of being forced to surrender, which became the deepest pain in his heart for the rest of his life.

He did not expect to be forgiven by the emperor again, but he also did not expect to be reused by the Qin army.

But at this time, Xiao Shaotang directly skipped those brave generals of the Qin Wangfu and asked him to lead his troops to pursue Yuan Jing, which made his heart suddenly shake like ashes.

Although the poor Kou Mo chased, Yuan Jing's men and horses were defeated and retreated, and they were close to collapse.

And the Qin army has high morale, and at this time, it is chasing after the victory, as long as it is not a rice bucket, it can steadily occupy this merit.

Xiao Shaotang waved his hand to let Sixi retreat, but without the slightest reproach, several deputy generals who were reprimanded by Sixi and had a red face and thick neck sank in their hearts, according to this look, His Royal Highness agreed with what Sixi said.

A few people were thinking in their hearts, so they heard Xiao Shaotang say to Zhang Qian:

"As Sixi said, Mr. Zhang Qian, you have been fighting bandits side by side with my father-in-law in Yuzhou for many years, and you have the best experience in how to pursue bandits in the mountains. Only when Mr. Zhang Qian goes, can I rest assured. Mr. Zhang Qian doesn't need to worry too much, since you are under my command, I will naturally believe you. ”

Xiao Shaotang's kind and even somewhat humble attitude made Mr. Zhang Qian's heart flood with an indescribable feeling.

Is this what is called Corporal Lixian?

Zhang Qian didn't know the literati, but he glanced around, looked at the unhappy faces of the lieutenants, and a feeling mixed with happiness made him answer:

"The last general commands!"

Zhang Qian quickly chased after the regrouped 10,000 horses along the direction of Yuan Jing's retreat.

A few reluctant lieutenants also went to two or three, but the rest gathered together in private.

"Our Royal Highness the Prince of the World now only listens to the words of the woman, and whatever the princess says is what it is! Now you have also seen, even the people who have worked with the father of the princess are deliberately promoted, and he does not give us such a big credit, but he gives away the surname Zhang, which is really infuriating!"

"That's it! He also said that Zhang Shide is good at chasing thieves, who of us hasn't chased thieves? It's not nepotism!"

Several people didn't believe that Zhang Qian was especially favored by Xiao Shaotang because of his ability, and they only heard the word "father-in-law".

Several people complained for a while, and they all became more and more worried.

Zheng Baobao has always been a pioneer in urgency, but this time he was left behind, and after being angry and dissatisfied, he said what was in his heart:

"Now there is only one princess by His Royal Highness the prince's side, naturally the princess is what she says, let's follow the princess all the way, but now we can't climb any relationship, if it goes on like this, where will we still have our place in the future?"

The rest of the people who said this bowed their heads in thought.

Now they have all reached Jizhou, and after Yongzhou is the capital, King Qin is basically stable in the world.

And some things, if you don't plan now, wait until the overall situation is certain in the future, and everything will be too late.

Someone looked at Zheng Baobao, who provoked these words.

"Brother Zheng, if you have any ideas, you might as well say it directly! Our brothers are no better than outsiders, and what we say in private will never be passed on. ”

Zheng Baobao hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice:

"It's been a few days since we left the northwest with His Royal Highness the Prince, and my wife and children don't know what to do, so let's take the female dependents of the family over?"

These words are subtle, but they are right in the hearts of everyone

When it comes to nepotism, who doesn't have a few daughters who are just the right age?

If you can let your daughter take the lead at this time, then when the prince of Qin ascends to the throne, who will be able to add a layer of wealth to the throne, it is also a matter of maybe!

Wealth is moving, and these people originally chose to follow King Qin because of their loyalty to King Qin, but step by step to today, their minds are not as pure as they were at the beginning.

When Xiao Shaotang and Bai Chenghuan didn't know it, people's hearts began to float.

Jizhou Mansion, Xiao Shaotang is praising Sixi.

"I haven't paid attention these days, but you're a lot smarter, and today's words are very good. ”

Sixi has been by Xiao Shaotang's side for so long, and he has heard all kinds of praise from His Royal Highness the Prince, but he has never heard the word "clever".

When I heard it at this time, I was overjoyed in my heart, but I heard Bai Chenghuan ask very calmly on the side:

"Then what's going on between you and Qiuyue?"

Qiuyue is her maid, although she is busy attacking cities and plundering land all day long, it does not mean that these little things are not in her eyes.

Sixi suddenly became embarrassed.

"Humble duty, humble duty......"

Sixi has never revealed his heart to anyone, and his face is flushed, but he still doesn't dare to say it.

Bai Chenghuan deliberately said:

"Since you can't tell clearly, then forget it, but in the future, stay away from Qiuyue, a good daughter's family, if you have a bad reputation, then you are not authentic. ”

After speaking, he added:

"Seeing that Qiuyue is not small, there are so many good men in the army, when the days are stable, I will definitely make decisions for her and choose a good husband for her!"

Sixi originally thought that the princess had seen what was on his mind and wanted to make decisions for him, but where did he think that the princess would say that!

Isn't this to break him up and Qiuyue!

Sixi was articulate all of a sudden:

"Don't!

After saying that, he immediately knelt on one knee and pleaded:

"Now that the princess has seen it, she will not hide it, and the princess is indeed in love with Qiuyue, and she asks the princess to be the master!"

Bai Chenghuan laughed at this time:

"I still don't dare to admit it, dare to act, this is a good man, but this is Qiuyue's lifelong event, I have to ask her to decide if I can make decisions for you. ”

Sixi wiped the cold sweat that came out urgently, and breathed a sigh of relief:

"Thank you for your humble position, the princess!"

As long as the princess will not be tough and give Qiuyue to others indiscriminately, then he will be thankful!

After Sixi left, Xiao Shaotang, who had been watching coldly from the side, smiled at Bai Chenghuan and said:

"Since you've seen it a long time ago, why bother playing tricks on him?"

"Qiuyue is a good girl, how can he let him say that he likes it, and marry him back easily?

Bai Chenghuan smiled proudly, but Xiao Shaotang couldn't cry or laugh.

He chased his daughter-in-law so hard at the beginning, but he didn't expect that even his guards would have to endure this experience now!

But as long as his daughter-in-law is happy, it doesn't matter how others suffer!

These days she has been facing the matter of fighting and killing, and now there is an incident that can make her smile happily, Xiao Shaotang privately feels that it is really worth it for Sixi to be wronged!

Later, Sixi went through a lot of hardships to marry Qiu Yue home, and in this process, Xiao Shaotang didn't say a good word for him.

Many years later, Sixi's tears fell when he knew the truth, you coax your daughter-in-law to be happy, just forget it, don't take such a pit to your subordinates, right?

A day and a night later, Mr. Zhang Qian came back with Yuan Jing.

There is no discrepancy with Xiao Shaotang's conjecture, Yuan Jing did plan to lead his troops to Yongzhou after retreating, and he and the remaining defenders of Yongzhou should cooperate with Zhao Wenbai to besiege and kill him.

But he didn't expect the Qin army to chase after him, and Zhang Shide led people to chase and intercept him as if he was dying, and he forcibly scattered Yuan Jing and his subordinates.

In the end, the exhausted officers and soldiers suffered countless casualties, those who surrendered, those who were captured, and even those who wanted to send the news of Jizhou to the capital were intercepted by Zhang Qianzong.

After Yuan Jing was arrested, he was still alive, but he was also seriously injured.

Although he was dying, when he was sent to Xiao Shaotang, he still scolded angrily.

"You traitors, who have received the emperor's favor, but have done great rebellious things, why didn't God send a thunderbolt to smash you!"

Mr. Zhang Qian was really poked in the center by Yuan Jing's words, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but he was speechless.

In any case, he was a court official for many years, and it is also a fact that he betrayed the court.

But Xiao Shaotang didn't feel unjustified at all because of these words.

He said coldly:

"To you, the Emperor's grace is immense. It's a pity that the mother of this son died tragically because of this emperor's grace, and his father was seriously injured because of this emperor's grace. ”

"This kind of imperial grace, this son really can't afford it!"

After speaking, he no longer argued with Yuan Jing, but ordered someone to take Yuan Jing down for treatment.

Yuan Jing sneered:

"You plot against Zhang Shide and Zhao Wenbai, but you can't turn against me Yuan Jing! I, Yuan Jing, would rather die than surrender!"

Bai Chenghuan heard that there was a faint will to die in his words, so he ordered someone to guard it strictly.

It is better for a person like Yuan Jing to be alive, and such a person, as a prisoner of war, can deter the latecomers in the capital even more.

But in the middle of the night, his subordinates still came to report, and Yuan Jing bit his tongue and committed suicide.

Xiao Shaotang and Bai Chenghuan, who were dressed up, suddenly heard the news, sat silently for a long time, and finally ordered Yuan Jing to be buried in Jizhou.

"I really didn't expect that someone like Xiao Shaoyun would be willing to repay him with death...... Yuan Jing's death is too unworthy. ”

Xiao Shaotang felt very sorry for Yuan Jing.

Bai Chenghuan shook his head:

"No, he died not for Xiao Shaoyun, but for his integrity and his family. ”

Yuan Jing's family is in the capital, which is not the same as Zhang Qianzong at the beginning.

At the beginning, as long as Zhang Qian surrendered, at least the whole family was safe.

But Yuan Jing, as long as he dares to show the slightest compromise, his Yuan family will be full of people, and he will be killed by the emperor immediately to vent his anger.

Even if Bai Chenghuan explained him like this, Xiao Shaotang still felt heavy in his heart.

He hugged her in his arms and whispered:

"I really hope that all this will end soon, and from then on the world will be peaceful, the Haiyan River will be clear, and all the people will be safe. ”

Bai Chenghuan listened to the howling of the cold wind outside the window, and arched into his arms, making both of them feel warmer.

"Xiao Shaotang, don't feel guilty about yourself, and don't feel guilty. Compared with the long-lasting and decades-long struggle for succession in the previous dynasty, we have already made a quick decision, and when we take Yongzhou, we can go straight to the capital. ”

Speaking of Yongzhou, Xiao Shaotang couldn't help but worry about Zhao Wensong, who was far away.

"I don't know if his brother can really accept him, or fight his brother to the death. ”

Bai Chenghuan thought about it and appeased Xiao Shaotang:

"It's been all these days, and there is no news of the defeat over there, so presumably his own brother is still reluctant to give him up. ”

Yongzhou Mansion.

Zhao Wenting looked at his younger brother who sneaked in, gritted his teeth and said:

"I haven't heard from you in my family for all these years, I thought you were dead, I really didn't expect that you would be a scourge for thousands of years, and now not only pretending to be the third brother, but also discrediting him, everyone knows that my Zhao family is a traitor, and you want to come to harm me!"

Zhao Wensong watched as the eldest brother, who was overjoyed when he saw him at first glance, instantly turned into a fierce god, and wanted to snicker twice, but he quickly held back.

And then a serious and authentic way:

"Those who have attained the Tao have much help, and those who have lost the Tao have little help. The person who can get my Zhao Wensong's loyalty, it must be the return of righteousness, where can I say that a traitor is not a traitor. ”

"What's more, eldest brother, you were framed in the first place, how did that faint monarch treat you? If it weren't for His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin's righteous action, eldest brother, you might still be squatting in the edict now, where can you stand here and teach me a lesson with righteous words!"

"You! All day long, if you don't learn, you don't learn, but you have a set of crooked reasoning!"

Zhao Wenting's heart was like a cat scratched, and he reprimanded his younger brother again, and turned around in place with his hands behind his back.

If he wanted to talk about following the rebellion of the Qin Palace, he had never thought about it before.

But now, his second brother has stood on the side of the Qin Wangfu with a clear banner, and the third brother was dragged into the water without the slightest knowledge, and even he has inherited the kindness of the Qin Wangfu and has not returned it yet.

No matter how you look at it, it seems that the Zhao family has only one way to go through rebellion.

Zhao Wenting turned around for an unknown number of times, and finally stopped.

"Then if we all rebel, what will happen to our parents and clansmen?"

Zhao Wensong jumped up suddenly, and his chest snapped:

"There are people in the Qin Palace, and the affairs of the family are wrapped up in me!"

"No, you let me think about it! You make me think about it again!"

Zhao Wenting had no impulse, and was ready to think about it again.

He immediately sent his brother away:

"You go back first! As long as you don't do it, I won't do it to you first. ”

"At that time, I will not be able to open the city gate to greet you, at most you will take a detour, I will not see, do you hear?"

Zhao Wensong was already very satisfied with such an answer.

He knows what kind of character his eldest brother is, and he is by no means a person who can be moved in a few words.

As long as he is willing to let them go from Yongzhou, it will be no different from capturing Yongzhou!

When Xiao Shaotang received Zhao Wensong's letter, he was stunned for a long time.

"This guy really said that he moved his own brother!"

Bai Chenghuan thought of the young talent Zhao Wenting she had seen back then, and couldn't help sighing:

Speaking of which, this is also the emperor's own credit, and if he doesn't do it, he will kill himself if he is unjust, which chills the minister's heart, and this is the result of this. ”

But the joy in the hearts of the two is real.

Jizhou has been captured, Yongzhou can be bloodless, will the capital be far away? 2k reading web
