Chapter 1307: Confession
Tie Kui accompanied Xiao Shi for a conversation and went back to the front yard. Since his injury, Tie Kui has basically stayed in the front yard.
Mrs. Dou said to Xiao with tears in her eyes: "Madam, the master is too partial, and ......the Lu family will hurt you" The next words, Mrs. Dou didn't dare to speak.
Xiao Shi was shocked: "What's wrong with me?" Seeing that Mrs. Dou didn't dare to say, Xiao's face turned white. After a while, Xiao asked, "Did the doctor say how much time I have?"
Seeing that Xiao had misunderstood, Mrs. Dou said with red eyes: "Madam, the doctor said that you will not be able to give birth in the future." "Xiao is Chinese New Year's Eve years old today, eleven years younger than Tie Kui. At this age, it is still possible to have children. Mrs. Dou also hopes that the Xiao family can give birth to a son-in-law, so that there will be no worries.
Xiao Shi breathed a sigh of relief: "What else should I do? Where is it possible for me to have children at such an old age." She hadn't thought about having another one. Giving birth to a child at such an old age, one will have a difficult birth if you are not careful. She's desperate for her life now, where will she go on an adventure.
Mrs. Dou wiped away a handful of tears and said, "Madam, if you don't have a sister-in-law, you will have to watch the eldest young master live with the second young master in the future." "The master is so many years older than his wife, and nine times out of ten, he will go before his wife, and then the eldest young master will be in charge. Aunt Lu is the biological mother of the eldest young master and the second young master, and Aunt Lu is so vicious, when the eldest young master is in charge, how can there be a foothold for the lady in the Iron Mansion at that time.
Xiao Shi smiled and said: "I don't know what the situation will be now, and I don't know what it will be like in the future." "These are just Shaw's words. Her Ah Zhan is her son-in-law, and it will definitely be her Ah Zhan who will inherit the family business in the future. As for Fang Hui and Fang Jia, they will be separated when they get married. Aunt Lu is willing to go out with her son!
Seeing this, Mrs. Dou didn't say anything more.
In the evening, Zhong Shantong received a letter from Tong Chrome, which said that there was nothing wrong with business matters. It's just that at the end of the letter, there is an extra circle. This was the agreement between the Falcon and Tiekui, and the letter with a circle was delivered to Tiefu, indicating that the Falcon would come in the evening. Over the years, such letters have appeared three times, and because of the small number of times, Yan Wushuang's people did not find out.
On the night of that day, the falcon appeared in the house of the Iron Mansion. Tie Kui looked at the falcon with his face covered and asked, "But what's the matter?"
Falcon hummed and said, "The princess asked me to tell you that the prince decided to send troops to attack the capital next year." ”
Tie Kui was excited: "Really, will the prince send troops next year?" He thought he would have to wait another two or three years.
"You heard it right, the prince decided to send troops at the beginning of spring. It was classified, and no more than ten people knew about it. "It's also Tie Kui's identity that is too special, so I will tell him.
Tie Kui was sure that he had heard correctly, and said three good words in a row. After calming down, Tie Kui asked, "What do the prince and the princess want me to do?"
Falcon didn't talk nonsense either: "You have to get better before the prince sends out the troops, so that you can continue to lead the troops." "Tie Kui can only play his role if he leads the soldiers.
Tie Kui nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely get better before the year." Yan Wu's hands lack generals to lead the troops to fight, as long as I get better, he will definitely let me lead the troops. "The reason why Imperial Doctor Zhang came so often was because Yan Wushuang hoped that he would recover as soon as possible.
After hesitating, Tie Kui said again: "But whether to guard the capital or not, I can't say for sure." ”
Falcon said, "You take care of your body first, and then plan the rest when you take charge of the army." "Now that the situation is becoming clearer, some officials in the DPRK and China have secretly taken their refuge in them. But only what works for them, they will accept it.
Tie Kui nodded.
Taking out a letter from his hand, Falcon handed it to Tie Kui: "This is what the princess asked me to pass on to you." As for what was written in the letter, he didn't know, as long as Yuxi's letter was not for him, he never opened it.
Falcon told Tie Kui about the recent situation in the imperial court, and after speaking, he said: "When you take charge of the military power, Yan Wushuang will definitely keep an eye on it more closely, I will not come to Tiefu again in the future, and I will send someone to send you a letter if there is anything." "The people under Yan Wu's hands are not vegetarians, if he comes to Tiefu too often, he will definitely be noticed. To be on the safe side, he won't come again.
"That's fine. "As long as Yunqing leads the troops into the capital, he can live a comfortable life. He didn't want an accident at this time.
After saying that, the falcon went out.
Zhong Shantong heard no movement inside when he was outside, and waited for a while before entering the house.
Seeing Tie Kui's excited face, Zhong Shantong lowered his voice and asked, "Master, what did the falcon say to make you so happy?" Because there were too many things in his heart, Tie Kui rarely showed his emotions.
Tie Kui said excitedly: "Ah Tong, just now the falcon said that the prince is going to send troops to attack the capital next year. "After looking forward to it for more than ten years, how can Tie Kui not be excited.
Zhong Shantong was a little disbelieving when he heard this: "Really?" Seeing Tie Kui nodding, Zhong Shantong cried with joy: "Master, we have finally waited." "More than 10 years has not been easy.
Tie Kui's heart is still very strong, and when he heard this, he immediately said: "The more this time, the more we have to calm down. "The darkness before dawn is the most dangerous.
Zhong Shantong stabilized his mind, wiped his tears and nodded: "Don't worry, master, I know." "You can't afford to fall short at the last minute. When King Ming entered the capital, they were completely liberated.
Thinking of this, Zhong Shantong was a little worried, and said, "Master, will Yan Wushuang let us stay in the capital at that time?"
Tie Kui didn't want to think about it and said: "When King Ming calls, I believe no one wants to stay in the capital." "Yunqing's reputation as a victorious general is not bluffing, if he is an opponent with Yunqing, he does not want to face Yunqing. Therefore, staying in the capital is equivalent to being cannon fodder, and no one wants to be this cannon fodder.
Zhong Shantong also thought a lot about this: "If the old man takes the initiative to ask for help, Yan Wushuang will definitely doubt you." Yan Wushuang's suspicions made them suffer enough.
Tie Kui smiled and said, "I definitely can't take the initiative to ask for help." "Staying in the capital means dying of life, and taking the initiative to ask Ying in this case does not make people suspicious, so he will not do such a stupid thing.
However, thinking about the things that Yan Wushuang had asked him to do over the years, he felt that if he could lead the troops, Yan Wushuang would let him stay in the capital nine times out of ten. Because of the people he has killed over the years, Yan Wushuang must think that King Ming can't tolerate him. However, this matter still has to be planned slowly.
The two talked for a while, and Tie Kui said, "It's getting late, I should rest." From now on, he has to cooperate with Imperial Doctor Zhang, and he will definitely take care of his body before the beginning of spring next year.
On this day, Tiekui slept a particularly restful night's sleep. The next day, I woke up at three o'clock in the morning.
After breakfast, Tie Kui went to visit Xiao. Xiao is actually not a big problem, but he needs to be recuperated for a period of time.
After so many years of husband and wife, although Tie Kui did not smile, Xiao Shi could still see that he was in a good mood: "Master, but what is the happy event?"
Tie Kui waved his hand and asked everyone else in the room to step back, then took out a letter from his sleeve: "This is written by Ah Zhan, look at it." "As for the letter written to him by Yuxi, he has already burned it, and Ning Zhan's letter will be burned when Xiao reads it.
Xiao asked incredulously, "Is this a letter from Ah Zhan?" Jian Tiekui smiled and nodded, and Xiao's whole person froze.
The letter seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and Xiao shook his hand. finally opened the letter, looked at the father and aunt written at the beginning, Xiao's tears fell heavily, and he couldn't stop it.
Tie Kui held her hand and said, "Don't be sad, our Ah Zhan is doing well now." After speaking, he pointed to the letter and said, "You see how well he writes, clean and neat." ”
Xiao nodded with tears in his eyes: "Yes, it's really well written." Actually, she didn't even look at the word carefully.
After crying for a long time, Xiao calmed down. After reading the letter, Xiao's tears came again: "Master, tell me, where is Ah Zhan now?"
Tie Kui hesitated.
Xiao wiped his tears and said, "Master, Ah Zhan is my son, will I still harm him?"
Tie Kui thought about the suffering of the Xiao family over the years, and finally decided to tell him: "Ah Zhan is now in the Ming Palace, and he is the illegitimate son of the Han family, and he went to the Ming Palace's Mansion to be the companion of the Fourth Young Master. Tie Kui is very grateful for Yuxi's approach. He began to think that Yuxi had let Ning Zhan enter the mansion as a servant. This little guy is not the same as the companion reading. Even if he knew that even if he was a little girl, Yuxi would not treat his son badly
Xiao knew that Tie Kui was the heir of Yuxi's maternal grandfather, the Ning family, so it was not surprising that Tie Kui would have a connection with Yuxi. But what she didn't know was that Tie Kui actually sent her son to the northwest. Xiao asked, "When did Ah Zhan arrive in the northwest?" Before that, he didn't say that he was sent to the northwest, but only that he was placed in a safe place.
Tie Kui said with a smile: "I only entered the Ming Palace, but Ah Zhan adapted well in the palace. ”
Xiao was skeptical about this: "Ah Zhan entered the Ming Palace, can he be good in the palace?"
"The fourth young master is very protective of our family Ah Zhan, so no one in the palace dares to ridicule Ah Zhan. In addition, Ah Zhan knew his identity, so he was not affected. "Just looking at the letter that Ah Zhan wrote to him, I know that this child has not been affected at all.
Xiao asked incredulously, "Really?"
Tie Kui smiled and said, "What am I lying to you about?" besides, if you read Ah Zhan's letter, you can know that this kid is doing well. In the letter, Ah Zhan would talk about his learning and the progress of his martial arts, and occasionally say something about Brother You'er. This time, in the letter, he specifically mentioned that Brother You brought him a lot of gifts from Jiangnan. However, the letter did not say the name, only the little master.
Xiao Shi was silent for a moment, and asked, "Why did you let Ah Zhan enter the palace as the illegitimate son of the Han family?"
Tie Kui smiled bitterly and said, "Ah Zhan looks a little like the princess. Entering the palace as the illegitimate son of the Han family is the least suspicious. ”
Xiao Shi understood that the princess was also trying to protect her husband. Xiao Shi said distressedly: "Master, you have worked hard all these years. "I can't tell anyone about such a thing, and I don't know how bitter it is. Thinking that she had resented Tie Kui before, Xiao couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
Tie Kui shook his head and said, "As long as you can restore your identity, no matter how hard it is, it's worth it." After speaking, Tie Kui sighed and said: "It's also a creation to make people, if it weren't for the princess, I would have recovered my true identity after entering Beijing." But because of Yuxi, in order not to attract Yan Wushuang's suspicion, he could only continue to conceal his identity.
Xiao is not stupid, Tie Kui must have confessed to her this time for a reason: "Master, what do you want me to do?" Before, it was because she had resentment, so she didn't want to spend time on Tie Kui. Now it's different, even for the sake of her son, she has to protect her husband.
Tie Kui said: "The prince is ready to send troops to attack the capital next year. If there is a war, Yan Wushuang will definitely send his family to Liaodong first. ”
How could Xiao Shi be willing to go to Liaodong, and immediately asked: "Master, what do you want me to do?" Hearing Tie Kui say that she should pretend to be sick, Xiao nodded and agreed, but soon asked worriedly: "Master, what should you do then?"
"I'm sure I'm going to heal as soon as possible, and then I'm going to lead the troops again. In this way, we can help the prince. "He can only make military merits, and he will have a place in the new dynasty in the future.
Xiao Shi was worried: "Master, if you help King Ming occupy the capital, Yan Wushuang will definitely not be able to bypass you." "Yan Wushuang kills people without blinking, and she is narrow-minded, otherwise her husband would not have been so careful all these years.
Tie Kui really didn't think so far: "I'll think about this matter carefully." "For the sake of his wife and children, he can't do anything. And seeing that King Ming and Princess Ming are about to win the world, he can also enjoy the blessings with him, and it is not worth it to die at this time.
A few days later, Yuxi received a reply from Falcon. After reading the reply, Ok-hee fell silent.
Yun Qing happened to be in the study at this time, and when he saw this, he asked, "What happened in the capital that makes you so worried?"
Yuxi put down the letter and said, "Uncle said that he was worried that when we took the capital, Yan Wushuang would retaliate against him. After speaking, Yuxi sighed and said, "Uncle has not been easy these years, I don't want him to be harmed by Yan Wushuang after the matter is completed." "As long as Tie Kui can hold on, he will definitely not have an accident before Yunqing attacks the capital. But when it happens, it may not be.
It's a bit of a tough thing to do.
Yun Qing thought for a moment and said, "If Uncle is only forced to surrender due to the situation, Yan Wushuang may not attack him. But if Yan Wushuang knew his uncle's true identity, he would definitely not let his uncle go with this person's temperament. ”
Yun Qing heard the implication: "You mean that before Liaodong is recovered, your uncle's identity cannot be announced?"
Yun Qing nodded and said: "Yan Wushuang is the most vengeful, if he knows that his uncle is a cheetah, I am afraid that not only my uncle, but also my aunt and a few children will die." "At that time, the Ning family may really be dead.
Yuxi rubbed his hands, and after a while, he said, "For the time being, it can only be like this." "Yan Wushuang is the best at playing yin, so it's better to be careful.
