Chapter 15: No Regret

He Yunting is convinced of this.

It's not that she's as unfounded as before, but because she personally feels the strength of Qi Wu's forces, so she is so sure.

In her eyes, Qi Wu's power should be the strongest.

Whether it is Qin Gouyu, or Fu Jingshan, who is the emperor, or Dayan, who is still breathing, he is not Qi Wu's opponent.

She can also feel Qi Wu's ambition, she doesn't believe that in this life, Qi Wu can't ascend to the emperor's throne.

Therefore, she stayed firmly in Qi Wu's camp.

He Yunting will no longer bring in her historical knowledge, because many situations are far from what she understands.

For example, Song Liangxiu didn't die.

For another example, Qin Gouyu was not called Qin Zhaocheng.

For example, the time of the great chaos in the world is different from history.

Even Dayan is declining faster than history.

She returned to Yingtian this time, in addition to plotting against the He family, there was another extremely important reason.

It was Qin Youan's base camp, and she planned to get close to Qin You'an.

See what's the problem? Why is it different from history? And then make a plan.

Otherwise, she will always have some uneasiness in her heart.

In Ezhou, she couldn't inquire about many things, she could only inquire about some corners, and a lot of news was not accurate.

Although Song Liangxiu also trusts her and defends her, he will not tell her anything.

What's more, hearing is believing, and seeing is believing, and she still hopes to find the answer herself.

Therefore, she resolutely embarked on the journey home.

Ezhou, Generalissimo's Mansion.

In the study, Qi Wu leaned lazily against the window, looked at the rain curtain outside, and said without looking back: "What is the matter with you coming to me?" ”

Although the rain has stopped in Yingtian, it is still raining in Ezhou.

It seems that there is no intention of stopping.

Song Liangxiu stood behind him, after more than a year of careful recuperation, his body was already very good. It seems that he is not as weak as before, coughing at every turn, and his spirit has changed greatly, and he finally doesn't want to seek death, but he looks a lot more vicissitudes and stability than before.

Song Liangxiu smiled gently: "Can't I come to you if I'm fine?" We are brothers after all. ”

Qi Wu chuckled, with a hint of mockery, and did not speak, or rather, did not bother to answer at all.

Song Liangxiu smiled bitterly, and then, straightening his face, said, "I came to ask about the king." ”

Seeing that Qi Wu was silent, he continued: "Nowadays, our family has a big business and vast power, and only by being the king can many policies be easier to implement. Otherwise, if the name is not justified, it will be like a plate of loose sand, with no cohesion point. Didn't you keep saying that our forces were too scattered? ”

There is a difference between being crowned a king and being an emperor.

They are justified in their name as kings, and they are expected by all. But if you are the emperor, you are not worthy of the name, and you are rebellious.

Just look at Fu Jingshan's fate now.

After becoming emperor, there is no good thing.

Fortunately, because of natural disasters, the imperial court did not take care of them for the time being, so they had a chance to breathe.

The strategy of "building high walls, accumulating grain, and slowly becoming king" proposed by He Yunting before is naturally good, but it is not completely applicable to them.

Of course, it is necessary to build a high wall and accumulate grain. But if they refuse to become kings, it will be the greatest obstacle for them.

"Also, this year is another year of disaster, and there will definitely be more victims than before, as long as we have a greater momentum, then it will be easier for both people and talents to turn to us. Therefore let us all take counsel that you may be king as much as you can. Song Liangxiu said.

Hearing this, Qi Wucai straightened up, glanced at him, and said meaningfully: "Didn't the female strategist under your hand once sue you to 'slow down the king'?" I thought you would definitely adopt her mention to the end! ”

At that time, Song Liangxiu praised He Yunting's talent in front of him.

Song Liangxiu's face showed a touch of embarrassment, and said: "Although I admire her talent very much, it's a pity that many of her mentions are not suitable for us. He thought about it for a long time, but he could only give up!

This girl is not without talent, but why is this talent always used in the wrong place?

It's like a doctor who treats diseases and saves people, her prescription is very good and powerful, but unfortunately, it's just the wrong symptom, what should I do?

It's not that he didn't suspect He Yunting, and even thought that there was someone behind her, but he hadn't found anything abnormal all along, and she was bent on them, at least, her loyalty could still be trusted.

Gradually, he accepted her.

He is still very protective of his own people.

Therefore, this time He Yunting responded to the sky, and he still sent a lot of people to accompany him to protect him.

Qi Wu didn't intend to dwell on He Yunting's issue, and chuckled, "There's nothing wrong with your mention." In this matter, Ben Shuai has already made plans, and when the time comes, Ben Shuai will proclaim himself king. ”

In this era, there is no need to be reserved and low-key.

The more high-profile and famous it is, the more talented people will compete for it.

If you are unknown or clumsy, and others don't know about you, how can they come to you?

Even if the power has grown to the point where Qi Wu is like him, he must do so.

In these years, there is a shortage of talented people and geniuses!

As several major forces have become kings one after another, they have fallen behind a lot, and if they continue like this, I am afraid that they will be looked down upon, thinking that they are inferior to other forces!

This is a no-go.

Hearing Qi Wu's words, Song Liangxiu also breathed a sigh of relief. He chuckled softly, "That's great." ”

He was afraid that the fifth brother would refuse to listen to people's persuasion and insist on refusing to be king.

In other words, he doesn't look down on a throne at all.

Just one throne.

After talking about official affairs, Song Liangxiu began to talk about private matters again.

"Miss He responded." Song Liangxiu said. "Do you really plan to let the He family make an internal response for us? In case they are discovered, I don't think Generalissimo Qin will let them go. ”

With his means, I am afraid that he will destroy the whole tribe.

Thinking of this, Song Liangxiu frowned worriedly.

Although he has a little friendship with the Qin family, this kind of problem involving his own interests, that little friendship is nothing at all.

Qi Wu said a little gloatingly: "Since you are worried, why should you agree with her to go back and find death." ”

When Song Liangxiu heard this, her brows furrowed even tighter, and then she stretched out again, and said helplessly: "She insists on leaving, and I can't stop her." What's more, she did this, first, for her family, and secondly, for us, and she should not sit idly by. We can't chill the people under us. ”

Qi Wu sneered: "Ben Shuai never ordered her to do this, it was all wishful thinking on her part. Don't get involved with me. She's only your man, not mine. You have to figure this out. ”

He just said it casually that day, and she was embarrassed.

He Qi Wu is not incompetent enough to rely on a woman to achieve his goals. Getting the news of Yingtian is not a difficult thing for him, so why do you have to go out of the house?

Song Liangxiu originally wanted to say something for He Yunting, but he thought that Qi Wuyi had never been willing to see He Yunting, and he was indifferent when he said good things about her in front of him.

And, he's right.

He Yunting can only be regarded as a person from his camp, although Qi Wu is the big leader who commands everyone, but in fact, she doesn't have much to do with Qi Wu.

Thinking about this clearly, Song Liangxiu didn't say anything more.

If it was him, he still didn't want He Yunting to risk the lives of the entire He family.

They are not inferior to the supporters of the He family.

It's just that He Yunting is so eager, he can't bear to discourage her enthusiasm.

Presumably, there will be someone in the He family who understands, and it should not be possible to agree to He Yunting.

He didn't have much hope for the He family to join his own forces, and he didn't support it in his heart.

Because he didn't see so many innocent people die first.

He only hopes now that He Yunting can come back safely. When she went to visit her family.

The people he sent out were enough to protect He Yunting when she came back alone.

After Song Liangxiu left with a heavy heart, Qi Wu returned to the chair behind the bookcase and sat down, looking at a bare branch inserted in the small porcelain vase on the bookcase. Stretched out his hand and took a look at it, and muttered: "When, you also respond to me, it's always hard to talk to yourself." ”

After saying that, he seemed to think that his behavior was funny, chuckled, and put the branch back down.

Ying Tianfu, Xu family.

Mrs. Xu's eyes were red and swollen, and she was wiping her tears with a handkerchief.

Her youngest son was beaten half to death, the Xu family lost face, and finally waited for her son's injuries to get better and the rain stopped, she immediately went to the Generalissimo's Mansion, planning to find Jingfang to make decisions for her son, and come back by the way to seek justice and explanations.

After all, this matter was asked by her righteous daughter to do it.

Now that something has happened, Jingfang is also responsible.

The most important thing is to Jingfang to vent for the Xu family.

Even the generalissimo's wife and brother dared to fight, it was simply a dog's audacity and did not take the generalissimo in his eyes.

Such people should all be arrested.

Who knows, after she arrived at the Generalissimo's Mansion, she didn't see Shen Jingfang at all.

I didn't even see Qin Shu's face.

Mrs. Qin only said that her body was not, and she did not see her.

She sat in the front hall for a long time, and didn't even receive any news, so she could only return to Xu's house in frustration and grievance.

There is no one under the Xu family, the information is not well-informed, and Shen Jingfang is not allowed to communicate outside, until now, she doesn't know what happened!

But this did not prevent her, guessing that something was wrong with Jingfang now, otherwise, the Generalissimo's Mansion would not have such an attitude towards her, let alone not even give her the slightest news.

If something happens to Jingfang, what will their Xu family do!

"Crying, crying, you know crying, can crying solve the problem?" Xu Zhaoting also walked around the room with a headache, his face gloomy.

After a few turns, he sat down, took a sip of tea, and said, "Now, the priority is to find out what happened." Big deal, I'll go to Generalissimo Qin in person and ask what's going on? ”

He is his father-in-law, and he will still give him this face.

When Mrs. Xu heard this, her crying finally stopped, and she said, "Then you don't go quickly!" I don't have peace of mind for a day when I don't get exact news. My Jingfang, wasn't it good before? also gave birth to her eldest son, how could this happen? ”

Xu Zhaoting suddenly seemed to think of something, and suddenly said, "It can't be that Jingfang offended her mother-in-law because she helped the Qin family, right?" ”

Mrs. Xu was stunned and said, "It's really possible." ”

The husband and wife glanced at each other and fell silent.

Before thinking of it, they were still so confident to follow Jing Fang's suggestion, thinking that Mrs. Qin was not to worry, with Jing Fang's current status in the Generalissimo's Mansion, it didn't matter if she offended her, she would not blame them, but she didn't expect it to ......

At this moment, they regretted it in their hearts.

If I had known, I wouldn't have waded into this troubled water.

Xu Zhaoting was even more calm, glared at Mrs. Xu angrily and said: "I just said that I can't offend Mrs. Tai, you think she doesn't dare to do anything to us, you just think it's good to please the generalissimo, and now you are satisfied." ”

When Mrs. Xu heard this, she felt both remorse and resentment in her heart, but she couldn't vent it, so she could only cry again

I could only cry again.

Then Mrs. Qin, why can't she get along with them!

and Jingfang is also a little too incompetent, she has been married for more than a year, and she still can't hold her husband's heart.

Otherwise, is it more important to be just an adoptive mother than a wife who gave birth to his eldest son?

For her sake, it's shameless to give them this......

"Dad, mother, what happened?" At this moment, Xu Huizhu suddenly appeared at the door and asked curiously and worriedly.

"Is there something wrong with my sister?"

Mrs. Xu didn't have the heart to comfort her little daughter now, so she quickly wiped her tears and said, "Little child, don't ask around. ”

If Xu Huizhu is willing to be obedient, she is not Xu Huizhu, she stepped forward and said with a little coquettishness: "Mother, I heard what you just said." Something must have happened to my sister. ”

These words aroused Mrs. Xu's sadness again, and she began to wipe away her tears again.

Xu Huizhu rolled her eyes, hugged her arm and shook it, "Mother, don't cry." Otherwise, my daughter will take a trip to the Generalissimo's Mansion to see her sister, what do you think? ”

Mrs. Xu stopped crying and said coldly: "Don't join in this fun, even if your mother and I go, I won't be able to see her!" If you go in vain, it's not shameful enough. ”

Xu Huizhu pouted and said, "I haven't gone yet, how does my mother know that I can't see anyone." What if it happens! Are they embarrassed to deal with my little girl? Just let me give it a try! ”

"No way!" Mrs. Xu didn't want her daughter to come to the door to sit on the cold bench, she was reluctant to let her suffer this grievance, and sternly rejected her.

"Daddy......" Xu Huizhu asked Xu Zhaoting for help again.

Xu Zhaoting said with a calm face: "Your mother is right, you just stay at home honestly and don't go anywhere." I'll just solve this problem. ”

Seeing that her father didn't help her, Xu Huizhu stomped her feet and ran out angrily.

Xu Huizhu returned to the room, sulked for a while, and saw that it was still early, not yet noon, so she simply threw off the people who were waiting around her and sneaked out.

Generalissimo's Palace.

Shen Jingfang was wearing plain clothes, no powder, sitting at the desk, copying the "Book of Filial Piety".

This is the task given to her by the Generalissimo until she understands what "filial piety" is.

Otherwise, her task of copying scriptures will continue forever.

This is obvious, that is, she is not filial.

Filial piety is the most important factor in measuring a person's character.

I have to say that it is a great blow and irony for a person like Shen Jingfang who attaches great importance to fame.

She herself is not upright, what identity will she use to reprimand those concubines in the future!

This stain will always follow her. Let her not have enough confidence in whatever she does in the future.

I can't be as straightforward as I used to be.

Originally, she still wanted to call her illness and hide from shame, but unexpectedly, her mother-in-law sent Lang Zhong and her henchmen over to diagnose and treat her, and as a result, her illness was almost better, even if she wanted to pretend to be sick.

And because of deliberate deception, she was accused of disrespect and unfilial piety, so she was grounded, copied scriptures, and even her family couldn't come to visit.

Only when she settled down in the morning and dusk and presented the copied "Book of Filial Piety" to Mrs. Tai could she go out of the courtyard, and she couldn't even say a word.

Now Mrs. Tai almost doesn't give her any good looks, every day when she asks for peace, she stands quietly aside, watching Zhao Hanqiu flattering Mrs. Tai, laughing with Mrs. Tai, and giving her a smug look from time to time, she is not uncomfortable about this, not resentful, but she endured it and looked indifferent.

If she wants to regain her former glory, no matter how much trouble and punishment she encounters, she must endure it.

She wanted the generalissimo and her mother-in-law to see her remorse.

Only if they forgive themselves will her reputation be restored.

Luckily, she still has a son.

The generalissimo attaches great importance to Xu'er, even if it is for him, he will not really divorce her.

For Xu'er being raised by her mother-in-law, no matter how painful and reluctant she is, she can only accept it.

Now she no longer has the bargaining chips to negotiate conditions for the generalissimo, let alone the confidence to go against her mother-in-law.

No matter what the punishment, she can only obediently follow.

Only by keeping himself will Xu'er's future be better.

Thinking of this, Shen Jingfang's expression when she copied the "Book of Filial Piety" became more and more pious.

You know, the person sent by her mother-in-law is staring at her from the sidelines! She couldn't afford to be sloppy for a moment.
