Chapter 442: Death
Jiang Ke won the first battle, and the emperor issued a reward.
It was a happy event, but because of the sudden loss of control of Marquis Jingyuan, the courtyard fell into a panic.
I only heard him shouting a lot of words in a hurry, and the content was very messy.
"Who told him to go to Mobei! Quickly call Jiang Ke back to me, I can't let him stay there! ”
"He followed me, and he is not the material to lead the soldiers to fight! If he doesn't come back quickly, he will die in Mobei! ”
Marquis Jingyuan became more and more impatient, and kept repeating the words to call Jiang Ke back.
Immediately afterwards, he suddenly turned to Jiang Xuan, grabbed his shoulders, and looked complaining: "No matter what he says, he is also your brother, you can't watch him die in Mobei!" ”
At this point, Mrs. Wu couldn't listen to it at first.
How can anyone look down on his own son like this!
Mrs. Wu stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "Master Hou, don't talk nonsense!" Ke'er was ordered by the Holy Lord to lead the troops in Mobei, but you kept calling him back! Fortunately, Father-in-law Chang took the first step, otherwise your words would reach the ears of the emperor, and he would definitely be condemned! ”
Seeing that Marquis Jingyuan didn't pay attention to himself at all, Mrs. Wu said again: "The first battle was won, and Ke'er showed great courage, which can be seen!" And this time, the uncle of the Lu family became Ke'er's deputy general, which made him even more powerful, and he would not miss the battle in the future! ”
Mrs. Wu was proud, and she also mentioned Lu Chengjie, which was really open-mouthed.
Marquis Jing Yuan, who had been staring at Jiang Xuan, just heard this.
Far from being reassured, he was even more afraid.
I saw that his hands holding Jiang Xuan's shoulders were even harder, and his eyes were terrified: "I know." Your appeal in the army is extraordinary, and the secretary of the military department is your father-in-law, and Jiang Ke's adjutant general in the army is your eldest brother...... You pledge to your Father now. You must not sit idly by and watch Jiang Ke's exit in Mobei! ”
A nameless fire rose in Jiang Xuan's heart.
Father thought of him as something!
Before Jiang Ke set out on the expedition, he also carefully mentioned it.
Even though he didn't look down on the Wu family's villain behavior of stealing others' exploits, but against Fanmeng, the victory of Daqi was the most important thing. Jiang Ke is his younger brother again, so it is impossible to watch the two of them go to the battlefield to rampage in the dark, while he is watching the excitement from behind!
Jiang Xuan was about to refute, but it was too late.
Marquis Jingyuan was in a hurry. He fainted directly and was unconscious.
This time, until he was carried back to Jingchun Hall. None have woken up yet.
The Imperial Doctor soon arrived, and after checking the pulse, he trembled for a long time before he spoke.
"The veins are disordered and scattered, sparse at first. And the breath is like a gossamer. In addition, you said that Hou Ye was particularly energetic this morning...... With all due respect, I'm afraid this is a discouraged and difficult to return...... Please also ask the Hou Mansion to prepare the longevity materials in advance. ”
When everyone heard this, they were all shocked.
Jiang Xuan seemed to have lost his mind, unable to speak for a long time.
At this moment, Marquis Jing Yuan suddenly woke up.
I only listened to him use a faint breath, trying to make his voice heard: "You go out first." Then he raised his hand and pointed at Lu Qingrong, "Lu stays." I have something to say to her! ”
In addition to being sad, no one expected that Marquis Jingyuan would have something to say to Lu Qingrong alone.
The most sober in the room at the moment. It's Mrs. Wu.
She didn't want Lu Qingrong to have this opportunity, so she immediately stood up and interrupted, pretending not to hear what he said.
Jingyuan Hou Dengshi shouted: "Get out!" ”
I used almost all my strength.
Yu Wei is still there, and no one dares to say more.
Everyone retreated one after another, and Jiang Xuan was the last to go out, and closed the door with his hand, leaving only Lu Qingrong in the house.
Marquis Jingyuan knew that time was running out, so he got straight to the point as soon as he came up.
"I know, you have been investigating the events of the year, since the people of the year are long gone, things are wrong, what are you doing with these?" Jing Yuanhou's voice was extremely soft, and he could still hear the sadness in it.
Lu Qingrong didn't want to stimulate him, but the words of the imperial doctor just now were already obvious, if he didn't talk about it at the moment, I am afraid that he would not have the opportunity to ask him again in the future.
"Right and wrong are black and white, good and evil are rewarded. Since my father mentioned the events of that year, it must not be for no reason, he must have doubts in his heart, or he may not have known the process at all......
Marquis Jingyuan shook his head: "I know who you have been suspecting, but this is unfounded...... Jiang Xuan is my son, and the Wu family is my wife, and they are all relatives, so how can I watch them go on like this......"
Does this also think that Mrs. Wu has something to do with the events of that year?
Lu Qingrong continued: "It is impossible for the son of the world to give up seeking the truth about his mother's death. Don't you want the truth to come out? Doesn't it matter what is right or wrong? ”
"Important. But......" Marquis Jingyuan was full of sadness, "the deceased is gone, the living are still there, the truth is important, but I have to protect my son......"
Could it be that tracking down the cause of Mrs. Jiang's death will put Jiang Xuan in danger?
Lu Qingrong was suddenly shocked.
"Father, I don't understand what you mean, will pursuing this matter cause any danger to the son?"
Marquis Jingyuan kept silent, only kept shaking his head, looking extremely painful.
After a while, he took a strong breath, looked at Lu Qingrong very seriously and said: "Jiang Xuan trusts you very much, and it is precisely because I saw this that I left you to speak, I hope you can dissuade him more in the future, and you must stop dwelling on old things." Some things have passed in the past, and finding out the truth can only add to the troubles. It's rare to be confused, that's a blessing......"
Lu Qingrong couldn't help but ask, "Are you confused...... Is it for this blessing? ”
Marquis Jingyuan smiled desolately, and his voice was weak: "I am not that piece of material, I did not inherit half a point of courage from my father, but I am also a flesh-and-blood person, on the battlefield back then, because of my negligence, nearly 10,000 soldiers died in the northwest, and I still don't have enough to atone for my sins in this life, where can there be any blessing!" I'm just afraid to pass on this sin to the next generation...... Fortunately, Jiang Xuan is different from us, he has his grandfather's legacy, and it is rare that he advances and retreats at a young age, even better than his grandfather...... Jiang Ke is a mediocre person, I know it in my heart, I think you can also see it. In that case, they have concluded that there is no need for fratricidal killing, do you know what I mean? ”
Lu Qingrong not only didn't understand, but became even more confused.
After hearing the holy decree just now, Marquis Jing Yuan had been worried about Jiang Ke, and at this moment, he even imagined something about fratricidal killing......
Lu Qingrong didn't want to let him divert the topic, and was about to turn the conversation back to Mrs. Jiang's matter, but it was too late.
After Jing Yuanhou finished saying what he just said, he had no strength.
His eyes were still open, but he didn't move.
Lu Qingrong stretched out his hand nervously to test his snort.
There was nothing but their own trembling fingertips. (To be continued.) )
