Chapter 187: Knowing Her Background
Fan Gu nodded, worried about Yue'er's affairs in his heart, and didn't think deeply about it, and said, "Tomorrow, I will arrange another team of people to go to Beiying." ”
"Thank you, uncle."
"Silly boy, it's getting late today, rest early." Fan Gu asked the guards to lead Fu Ziran to the resting place, and stood alone in the stone pavilion, looking at the gurgling water, as if looking at the passing years, the brilliant colors of the sunset sprinkled all over the ground, but it seemed that his background was desolate, and the fine lines between the eyebrows became clearer and clearer, just like the years that were gradually engraved in his heart.
The night was hazy, the sky was dotted with stars, and a hint of hot and humid wind blew, squeaking the windows, and the yellowish light leaked out from time to time.
A soft knock sounded at the door.
"Come in."
Fan Gu was dressed in a blue robe, calm and upright, gently pushed the door, and saw the man sitting by the bookcase, looking at the folds seriously, only a few mouthfuls of food on the low table on one side, the wax on the carved candlestick was lit up little by little, and the wax body was full of white candle tears.
"Little master, why did you eat so many bites?"
The man who had been burying his head did not look up, and said in a shallow voice: "Not hungry, can you feel nostalgic for gathering with your relatives today?" ”
Fan Gu leaned over and said, "Thank you, little master, for letting Weichen reunite with his relatives." ”
"So, Satsuki is your niece?" Qiu Sheng raised his head, his eyes were bright: "Now that I think about it, it's really fate, she always wanted to go to her hometown when she was a child, but she didn't expect that when you grew up, you stood side by side, and you still couldn't recognize each other." ”
"Yes, my subordinates didn't expect it either." The tail note is long, and there is a hint of exhaustion.
"I've always wanted to ask you about Yue'er's background. I wonder if Mr. Fan is willing to tell him? ”
Fan Gu was stunned for a moment, knew the little master's thoughts, and lowered his head and said: "The matter of supporting the family is related to the whole world, how can the subordinates hide it, and there is no need to hide it now, everything is already wrong, and those precipitated missions have been dispersed with the cold wind of winter." ”
Fan Gu's voice was very soft, and after accepting the fact of the family's demise, his heart became calmer and heavier. It was like a boulder pressed against his chest. Lu Gong's secret record does not belong to the family, but belongs to the world and the people, and what he can do is to retrieve the secret record. Carry forward the family mission. so that it does not fall into the hands of traitors. This is also the hope that the eldest brother has for him.
Fan Gu told the cause and effect of the incident in detail, and the settled mind gradually became sad along with the picture of memory. The green bamboo outside the window is verdant and fragrant, and the warm wind blows the corners of their clothes, as if bringing them into the past years, sadness, hatred, and pain, how many emotions are hidden under the hard appearance, and the swaying candle flame casts mottled shadows, making their figures look extremely tall.
Qiu Sheng stood up, walked beside Fan Gu, looked at the dense bamboo leaves outside the window, and said softly: "I have always wanted to know who she is all these years, in fact, she is Xiaoyue in my heart, what she has experienced and endured is really too much, and let her bear the hatred of these families, I am worried that her shoulders will not be able to bear it." ”
"Although the Shu Kingdom is destroyed, Beiying is still there." Fan Gu leaned over and said, "These are the private grievances of the Weichen family, which makes the little master worried." ”
"Beiying is the enemy of your family, but also the enemy of my Tan country, if it weren't for the information stolen back from Tianyi Pavilion, I'm afraid I would have been kept in the dark, when the ten permanent servants were rampant in the government and the opposition, Wu Xun took the opportunity to rebel, all of them were Bei Moling's pen, this person is really a big trouble in my heart."
Fan Gu nodded and said: "This person is ambitious, his eyes are all over the world, and the Tan Kingdom can only compete with it if it is unified, and for the sake of today's plan, he can only endure it." ”
Qiu Sheng smiled in a low voice: "Forbearance, I learned it seven years ago. ”
Suddenly, Fan Gu saw a piece of letterhead in the little master's hand, and asked with a condensed brow: "Is it that the old king of Baling Xiang has sent a message?" ”
Qiu Sheng's eyes narrowed slightly, sharp as a comparison, and the corners of his mouth were warm and said: "It is his message, he will be properly arranged in the Baling area will be relocated to Dongtan, although Xiang Lao Wang is a foreign surname Fengwang, in the past, when his father was alive, he hid in the Baling area because of timidity and fear, Shengjing Palace changed greatly, but he did not save him when he saw death, hid in the Baling fiefdom, and did not send a single soldier, and now he saw that Xitan was not as strong as before, so he offered to assist me and moved all the troops and property to Dongtan. ”
Baling is located in the southwest of Tan country, although the area is wide, but most of it is precipitous, because there is a mulberry tea road, the economy is strong, Baling Xiang Lao Wang hereditary title, the ancestor is the founding hero, now to Xiang Lao Wang, but completely become a corrupt moth, looting the people, life is extravagant, Xiang Lao Wang is timid and afraid of things, greedy for money and lustful, it is said that his wealth is more abundant than the treasury, this time to Dongtan, nothing more than because the defeated Xitan has been greedy eyes to Baling, but also wants to take his wealth as his own.
"Look at it." Qiu Sheng handed the letterhead in his hand to Fan Gu.
Fan Gu took it and looked at it, and said with his eyebrows: "This old king of Xiang is really a lion's mouth, asking for Guangling to be given to him, Guangling is rich, it is our important economic city, this greedy nature has really not changed, what is the little master going to do?" ”
Qiu Sheng lowered his eyes and smiled, his eyes were like a sharp sword, although he was laughing, it was like a sword covering the sky, which made people look comfortable, but there was a chill, and he only heard the man's voice as calm as flowing water: "Since he wants Guangling, then give him Guangling, this is called putting a long line to catch big fish, he came with a large army and led all the family wealth, who can guarantee that he will be able to come safely?" These are all things that cannot be said. ”
Fan Gu trembled and said in a deep voice: "Could it be that the little master wants to?" The latter words were unanswerable.
What does Mr. Fan think? Why should a man who is greedy for money and afraid of things and has no faith continue to remain in the world, but it is better for me to collect money for him to wash away his sins. ”
"But if it is spread out, I am afraid that no one will come to Dongtan again."
Qiu Sheng smiled warmly: "Pass it out?" Why is it being spread? Even if it gets out, why must it be me? ”
Fan Gu felt a chill down his spine, his heart chuckled, looking at the young king's faint bloodthirsty side face, he couldn't say a word, standing on the most cruel road to the world, stepping on the bones all the way, how could he not be ruthless, but he didn't expect this day to come so quickly, people's hearts can change so quickly invisibly, he can't help but be a little worried.
In the early morning of the next day, in the Jinsheng Square of Jinding Palace, the army of 100 people stood silently, and the leader of the troops was Wang Ping, the commander of the Yunchuan army.
Qiu Sheng and Fu Ziran rode their horses, he raised his horse and stepped forward, looked at the black oppressive army, and slowly frowned.
"The last general will see the prince, and he is willing to lead troops to sneak into Beiying to rescue the girl." (To be continued.) )
