Han Qian finally and Xi Yi, Yang Qin, Zhao Wuji, Kong Xirong, Feng Yi and others, pretending to be a squad of trafficking in illicit salt, took the county lord of Qingyang, from the territory of the Wu bureaucrats, along the Qianjiang River, and then from the southern foot of Wuling Mountain in Sizhou, all the way through the mountains and rivers, over the rugged mountains, full of wind and frost, and finally arrived at Longya City on the fourth day of the second lunar month.

At this time, Xuzhou is already the season of spring flowers.

Looking at the few bushes of spring flowers hanging down from the cliff in Laolongxia, Han Qian had mixed feelings.

The bizarre dream five years ago seemed to have caused him to integrate soul fragments that were completely different from this era, and to a certain extent, he was alienated from the world.

The tragic death of his father made him feel painful and unwilling to die at the same time, but also made him feel a kind of dazed heart with nowhere to settle, at this moment to see a few bushes of spring flowers hanging down the cliff of Laolongxia in full bloom, which made Han Qian feel a feeling of going home, which moved him.

Seeing Han Qian's unkempt hair, his messy beard and stubble were left in inches, his eye sockets were sunken, his cheeks were thin and almost out of shape, his long unkempt hair was dyed frost white, and his clothes were also ragged, and he was described as withered, like a beggar, Zhao Ting'er was shy with her belly, which had been pregnant for several months, and tears couldn't help but flow.

"Why didn't you tell me about your pregnancy?" Han Qian took Zhao Ting'er's hand and asked.

"At first, Ting'er didn't confirm it, but when he showed his wife, his father had gone to Jinling, and Ting'er didn't want you to be distracted by this matter, so he didn't rush to say it in the letter, who would have thought that such a shocking change would happen in Jinling later?" Zhao Ting'er wiped the tears on his face and said, "Feng Yi, Uncle Lao Shan, I have collected my father's body and escorted it to Dragon Tooth City. ”

Han Qian closed his eyes and stood in front of the Old Dragon Gorge for a while, without saying anything, without asking anything, and walked towards Dragon Tooth City with a quinoa cane.

The Qianjiang River and the southern foot of Wuling Mountain are dangerous, and Qingyang has a deep experience.

Even if she had someone to support her all the way, she had to endure a lot of hardship, but what made her even more unhappy was that Han Qian's temperament became cold and gloomy, and he ignored her, so she was forced to be kidnapped all the way to Xuzhou, and she didn't know what kind of drastic changes had happened in Jinling.

Listening to Zhao Ting'er's words at this time, she saw that Tian Cheng, Zhao Qi, Feng Zhang, Lin Haizheng, Ji Xiyao, Chen Jitang, who greeted Han Qian in Laolongxia, and Guo Nuer, who stayed in Longya City to monitor the movements of Chenxu and other prefectures and counties, as well as Feng Yi, Han Laoshan and others who had worked hard to escort Han Daoxun's coffin from Jinling to Longya City, were all wearing filial piety clothes, and she was also shocked: Han Daoxun is dead?

It's just that she didn't have a chance to ask for details, so she asked Xi Ying to arrange for someone to escort her to Dragon's Tooth City in a carriage first, and put her under house arrest in another courtyard alone.

…………

…………

The news of Han Daoxun's tragic death by the dismemberment of five horses has already reached Xuzhou, and Xuzhou is also immersed in an atmosphere of grief and indignation.

Sneaking all the way, not wanting to attract the attention of any forces, Han Qian and the others disguised themselves and walked in the mountains as smuggler salt dealers, and only then did they put on filial piety clothes again when they returned to Dragon's Tooth City.

Han Daoxun's coffin was escorted to Dragon Tooth City in half a month, but Zhao Ting'er firmly believed that after Han Qian got out of Shudi, he would rush back to Xuzhou as soon as possible, and the ebony coffin was still placed on top of the mourning hall.

Surrounded by cloth flags, incense and candles.

Han Qian knelt in front of the coffin, his heart ached for a while, he never thought that the tragic fate of the five horses that he should have borne would befall his father.

"December 22nd

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

, Caizhou Jiedu made Zuo Yadu command Han Yuanqi to lead the troops to rebel, Zhu Jiedu made Han Jian, seized the military power of Caizhou, according to Caizhou, the south of Ruzhou, and the north of Gwangju, spread the word to the world, reprimanded Emperor Liang for being cruel and unkind, unjust rewards and punishments, and proclaimed himself King Cai. At that time, Zhu Yu, the king of Yong, pretended to be in Guanzhong that the Shu army sent troops from Liangzhou to attack Chencang, and was unable to divide the troops to attack Han Yuanqi. On the twelfth day of the first month, Zhu Yu, the king of Yong, led 20,000 Xuanjia Dujing to ride out of Tongguan, marched west along the river, took advantage of the emptiness of Bianjing's defense, and invaded Bianjing with lightning speed on the 15th, imprisoned Emperor Liang in Qiuyang Palace, and usurped the throne ......"

In addition to Tian Cheng, Feng Yi and others in Longya City, the three princes, Shen Yang, Zheng Hui and others also expected that after Han Qian left Shudi, he might return to Xuzhou first, and specially ordered Gao Shao and Jiang Xu to rush to Xuzhou to wait for Han Qian's news.

Seeing Han Qian kneeling motionless in front of the coffin like a statue, Jiang Xu didn't know if his mind was above the current situation, and he could only introduce the current situation between Liang and Chu at the moment.

It was also at this time that Yang Qin and the others learned that around the end of the sixteenth year of Tianyou, not only Da Chu, but also the Liang State had undergone earth-shaking upheavals.

At the beginning of November, after learning that Han Daoxun had been ordered to go to Jinling, Han Qian further concentrated the scouts he had privately mastered on Shouzhou, Chuzhou, Jinling and other places, keeping an eye on the movements in the direction of Shouzhou Jiedu Envoy, Anning Palace, East Palace, and King Xinwang of Chuzhou.

And they had to know that Han Daoxun died tragically by the corpse of five horses on the 7th of the first month, and fled south in embarrassment on the 11th, and the secret spies who were lurking in Shu at that time also made every effort to keep an eye on the movements of the Shu army and Shu Zhizhou County on the way to the south, so that such a big upheaval occurred in the territory of Liang State, and Han Qian was unaware of it along the way.

Yang Qin and Xi Ying stood in front of the mourning hall, listening to Jiang Shu's account of the earth-shaking turmoil between Liang and Chu in the past two months, and they were also shocked.

Seeing that Han Qian was indifferent, Jiang Xu continued to talk about the current situation in Jinling:

After the news came out that Zong Zhengqing Yang En, Shizhong Shi Yandao and Zhenyuan Marquis Yang Jian and others supported the crown prince and General Zhaowu and Zuo Shenwei, they all commanded Kou Shixiong to be beheaded by the general Chen Qiao, Xinchang Marquis Li Pu and Shifei were worried that the soldiers and horses of Chuzhou would not be able to cross the river as soon as possible after the Louchuan Army and the Naval Division were controlled by the Anning Palace, and the Longque Army could not advance eastward along the river at the fastest speed, so they abandoned Taowuji and led their troops to the east to occupy Runzhou. The Dragon Bird Army had more than 40,000 small units in Taowu, but it was slow to move, and a large number of women and children were unfortunately intercepted by the pursuers at the southeast foot of Baohua Mountain, and more than 10,000 people were taken back to Jinling to behead the public as rebels. After learning of the drastic changes in the Liang State, King Xin gathered 100,000 soldiers and horses in Chuzhou on the 18th of the first month to occupy Guangling Mansion in Yangzhou, and then divided his troops to cross the river, and entered Runzhou in the front, meeting with the Marquis of Xinchang and the concubine, and resisting the eastward advance of the army sent by the Anning Palace. At this time, His Royal Highness crossed the clouds with Shen Yang, Zheng Hui and other generals in Yueyang and waited for Lord Han to ......"

Han Qian waved his hand to stop Jiang Yu from continuing, knelt in front of the coffin, and did not turn around, and said, "We have taken the Qingyang County Lord out of Shu Kingdom, please take her to Tanzhou and hand her over to His Highness." In the next three years, Han Qian was relieved of his official position and wanted to stay in Longya City to serve his father's mourning and filial piety. These things, Master Jiang told me, but it is useless! ”

Da Chu inherited the system of the previous dynasty, established the country with filial piety, and mourned his father for three years, which was for Ding Worry, and it was also one of the most important "fierce gifts" in the world.

Although it is said that when there is a conflict between filial piety to the family and loyalty to the country, it is possible to win the love, but do you really want to go to Yueyang to see His Highness first, and then His Highness will send a minister to come over to win the love and summon Han Qian to Yueyang?

Don't say that it's been three years of mourning, in the current urgent situation, it comes and goes

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

How can we afford to delay the last few days?

Besides, Han Qian doesn't look like he's pretentious, if His Royal Highness sends a minister over, and Han Qian still doesn't want to move, what will he do?

Jiang Shu was silent, but he refused to take the county lord of Qingyang to Yueyang to see the king of Tan like this.

Feng Yi squatted down to Han Qian's side and said:

"After the thief and queen harmed the boss, the corpse was hung in the East Market for public display. Fan Xicheng was in Xuzhou at the time, and when he heard the news in the starry night, he rushed back to Jinling, sneaked into the palace to assassinate the thief, and wanted to avenge the boss, but he was killed; We took advantage of the attention of the forbidden army patrolling the streets to be attracted to us, took the opportunity to snatch out the body of the old man, and then found a way to transport it out of Jinling and escort him back to Xuzhou. It's a pity that I couldn't snatch Fan Ye's body back......"

Han Qian knelt there in a daze, but he didn't expect Fan Xicheng to be dead, so he turned around and knocked his head three times in the direction of Jinling to thank Fan Xicheng for his loyalty to his Han family.

Feng Yi continued: "Zhao Kuo's identity has also been ascertained, he is the elite secret soldier of King Liang Yong's secret Chengtian Division, and he has been lurking by the boss's side all these years. ”

"How is that possible? In the first battle of Jingxiang, we were waiting to build a city in Canglang, Zhao Kuo had eavesdropped on our conversation, and knew that we had guessed that King Liang Yong was in Wanzhou (Nanyang) at that time, Han Qian was worried that he had a problem, and specially asked Zhao Wuji to sneak behind him to monitor him for anything abnormal. He returned directly to Xuzhou at that time, and did not report to Liang Jun? Xi Ying couldn't believe that Zhao Kuo would be a secret spy that Liang Guo had been lurking for many years.

Feng Yi said: "Zhao Kuo confessed that he thought that even if the adults guessed the whereabouts of King Liang Yong, it would be impossible to reverse the situation in Jingxiang, and he also noticed that Zhao Wuji was secretly following, so he did not go to Wanzhou to report the news, but he did not expect that Liang Jun would suffer so much under Xichuan City. ”

Xi Ying opened his mouth and didn't speak again.

Since all this is Zhao Kuo's confession, there will definitely be no fake, thinking about it, probably no one expected that the Dragon Bird Army would have the possibility of holding Xichuan beforehand.

"Do you want to bring Zhao Kuo up?" Feng Yi asked.

The corners of Han Qian's eyes twitched, and he nodded, asking Feng Yu to bring Zhao Kuo up.

Zhao Kuo was shackled, his face was withered, and his beard was unkempt and escorted in by two guards, and when he saw Han Qian kneeling in front of Han Daoxun's coffin, he sighed and knelt in front of the coffin.

"You have a chance to sneak back to your homeland, why do you stay and be captured?" Han Qian held the saber on his waist with his hand and stared at Zhao Kuo sinisterly.

Zhao Kuo said: "Vortex Yang military disaster, my parents and brothers died in the chaos, I took my young sister to beg for a living, the disease is in the wild, the sky should not be, Yongwang decoction medicine to serve him, spare his life, only to repay this great favor with his life." And the boss worked all night for the country and the people, but he suffered such a tragic death, all of which were Zhao Kuo's misfortunes, Zhao Kuo was deeply ashamed in his heart, but loyalty and righteousness could not be both. In addition, the old man left a blood book before his execution and handed it over to the jailer for secret storage, and after Zhao Kuo found it, he felt that he should hand it over to the young master himself. ”

Zhao Kuo took out a pair of blood books written from the placket of his robe and broken fingers from his arms, and Han Qian unfolded it and saw a few lines of blood characters in the book: "The old things in Chuzhou have been accumulated for many years, and the punishment is imminent, and this life is suddenly in front of me, I really feel that life and death are trivial, don't think I think ...... it."

Han Qian closed his eyes, tears flowed down his line, and he waved his hand weakly, signaling the guards to escort Zhao Kuo down.

After a while, he heard a muffled sound in the courtyard, everyone in the mourning hall was startled, Feng Yi stepped out of the threshold, but saw that Zhao Kuo had fallen in the courtyard, his head had broken a big hole, blood gushed out, and the rockery next to him was also stained with blood......

Zhao Kuo actually committed suicide by hitting a stone!
