Chapter 1023: Shameless Kindness (41)

Jin Qing had been in the courtyard for nearly a month, and the official who was rumored to be meeting with her was late.

It's just that this person's identity is a little special, and it is Zeng Da who killed Mo Wanxia in the first place

I think that at the beginning, Zeng Da's father was also a general stationed on one side.

It's just that when he went out of the city to play with his family, he was ambushed by the enemy and his family was taken captive.

After that, a large number of foreigners besieged the border city, and the defenders of the border city went through a lot of hardships to defend the city without a general.

Because the entire Zeng family disappeared on the battlefield, the deputy general defending the city folded to the court, detaining the black pot of the foreign sneak attack on the Zeng family, and gave them a name for collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.

Not to mention that the family property was confiscated, all the relatives of the Zeng family were exiled, and for a while, the huge Zeng family became scattered like a fallen tree.

And Zeng Da's family also suffered after being taken captive.

The foreign clan originally wanted to catch General Zeng and relieve the hatred in his heart.

Therefore, after the abduction of people, they naturally would not let them live a good life, and the torture and humiliation of those days made several members of the Zeng family miserable.

In the end, the Zeng family sacrificed themselves to find a chance to escape for their three children.

Zeng Da held his breath before fleeing from the enemy's territory with his injured siblings.

At that time, the three brothers and sisters of the Zeng family were all injured, especially the youngest Zeng Xiaomei, who not only broke her leg, but was even disfigured.

The three of them finally escaped to a mountain not far from the Central Plains, and then fainted due to physical exhaustion.

Then, the eldest princess picked up the three people who "needed help".

Zeng Daben is a selfish person, it is not easy to treat his younger brothers and sisters sincerely, how can he be sincere to this eldest princess and Mo Wanxia.

So, there was a scene of pushing Mo Sunset down the mountain.

After Zeng Da returned to the capital, he directly found his former colleagues who had been friends with his father and handed him an excerpt to the new emperor.

Originally, Zeng Da's father was very prestigious in the court, and he was an important minister in the court who was extremely trusted by both the former emperor and the new emperor.

The new emperor hated the Zeng family because of his treason and abandonment of the city.

At this time, he saw the three brothers and sisters of the Zeng family who fled back desperately, and the new emperor still had nothing to know.

After knowing the injustice suffered by the Zeng family, the new emperor not only gave back the ancestral house that the Zeng family had seized, but also gave countless treasures to the three brothers and sisters of the Zeng family to appease.

Because Zeng Xiaomei is old and has problems with her appearance, she can't marry at all.

The new emperor simply gave grace and included Zeng Xiaomei in the harem, intending to give her a belonging.

Zeng Da had been working as a deputy general for his father in previous years, and he was extremely familiar with military affairs, so the new emperor conferred on him the official position of a second-rank general.

And Zeng Er had already been admitted to the second-class jinshi before, but his career was ruined because of this incident.

The new emperor wanted to give Zeng Er an official position, but Zeng Er had no intention of officialdom, and he was uneasy because of the previous murder of Mo Wanxia.

simply rejected the reward given to him by the emperor, went out alone on a clear morning, and disappeared since.

Only the subordinate who guarded the door told Zeng Da that Zeng Er claimed to travel all over the world.

Seeing that Zeng Er had left the capital, the emperor thought that Zeng Er was disheartened because of the unwarranted disaster of the Zeng family.

From then on, his grace to Zeng Da was even greater

made the Zeng family become the upstart of the imperial court, and it was in the limelight for a while.

In the blink of an eye, nearly ten years have passed, and Zeng Er has completely disappeared.

The last time someone found his trace was ten years ago.

A woodcutter who went up the mountain to chop wood, and once saw the bearded Zeng Er standing alone on a cliff, not knowing what he was thinking.

The woodcutter stepped forward to talk to Zeng Er and left the strange man, and since then, no one has ever met Zeng Er.

And Zeng Xiaomei has a disability due to her poor appearance.

After being included in the harem by the emperor, he joined the queen's camp, hugged the queen's thighs, and did some pickled things for the queen.

After all, she is a person who has been in the prison of the enemy army, and Zeng Xiaomei's torture ideas are endless, making the people in the harem miserable, but they can't find any evidence.

Because they were all injured in those unspeakable positions, Zeng Xiaomei was sharp and sharp, leaving no traces at all.

Therefore, the people in the harem hated Zeng Xiaomei to the core, but the queen was extremely satisfied with her.

The queen remembered her loyalty, and the emperor had never been to her palace, so she raised other princes who did not have a mother concubine to Zeng Xiaomei to show her favor.

Knowing that this child is her dependence for the rest of her life, Zeng Xiaomei is also dedicated to the upbringing of this prince, and her life in the palace is much better than that of other childless concubines.

The situation in the harem can easily affect the previous dynasty.

Zeng Xiaomei entered the queen's camp, and the queen's eldest son was the crown prince, so Zeng Da also became an out-and-out princeling.

Zeng Da has done a really good job over the years, the things that the emperor has explained have been done beautifully, and he is good at monopolies.

The year before last, he just won the title of a viscount, and he married the daughter of the prime minister's family, which is like reaching the pinnacle of life.

The emperor was a man of extreme luxury and luxury, not only liked pomp and circumstance, but also demanded the best and best in everything.

When the new emperor took over, he found that the treasury was not only empty, but also a large number of white slips had been saved.

Therefore, the emperor has always attached great importance to the matter of commerce, and only hopes to bring more income to the country.

However, the trade road has not been very peaceful, and various cottages are entrenched on the road of trade.

There are endless cases of killing people and selling goods, and there are fewer and fewer people who dare to do business on the business road.

In particular, the stretch from the Central Plains to the Western Regions is located at the junction of the two countries, but it does not belong to any country.

At that time, because there were many mountains and forests in this area, and wild animals were frequent, neither country included this part of their own territory.

Only a few homeless people were allowed to settle here, and slowly small villages were formed, and then there were cottages

It was only after the opening of trade routes that the two countries realized the importance of this area to them, but by then it was too late.

In recent years, although there has been constant friction between the two countries, there has never been a real fight.

But once an army enters this area, it will inevitably lead to a major war.

As a result, the Central Plains and the Western Regions have always been eyeing this area, but they don't dare to strike first, but they just keep testing each other's intentions.

Just when the emperor thought that this trade road was going to be yellow, he found that the bandits on the trade road were unified.

The emperor originally thought that he would secretly serve this cottage that had unified the trade road, and then send his own people to garrison it, so that the order of the trade road would be under his control.
