Chapter 520: Old Officer

The northwest of Daqi is bordered by Dangxia. Since the old Dang Xia King Nu Wuer surrendered to Daqi and was named the King of Zhongshun, the Dang Xia State paid tribute to the Daqi court every year, and the two countries were at peace.

When Shen Tong was in Xi'an, he had heard about the party Xia Guo.

Two generations of loyal kings, Nugur and Arutai died at the hands of the Antar king Bel. Belle's younger sister, Princess Anwinda of Dangxia, assisted her youngest son Anke in power, and before that, Princess Anwinda had assisted her husband and eldest son, and she was also revered as the Queen Mother by the Dangxia people.

Five years later, Princess Anwinda suddenly disappeared, and the search was unsuccessful, and Anke, who was only ten years old, was in power, and he was now the king of Dang Xia Zhongshun.

Princess Anwenda is both civil and military, she has personally led the troops to defeat the Antar army many times, she hired a number of Han scholars to run a school in the party Xia, she also imitated the county test and the township test in Daqi, and had written to the court of Daqi, allowing the party Xia Shizi to enter Beijing to participate in the examination, Emperor Taizu gladly agreed, three years later in the examination, there was a person in the jinshi, two people in the same jinshi, the party Xia Jinshi Han name Zhang Xingye, had served in the Hongkuo Temple for many years, only a few years ago died of illness; Princess Anwenda led the Dangxia people to learn the cultivation and weaving of the Han people, and the Dangxia people lived and worked in peace and contentment, rich and stable, and the queen mother of Anwenda made great contributions.

Emperor Taizu also praised Princess Anwenda for not letting her eyebrows and being a woman among women.

To this day, most of the people of Dangxia can speak simple Chinese, and people who know Chinese characters abound.

After Princess Anwinda disappeared, King Qin also met with Dang Xia's envoy to inquire about the matter.

According to the envoy, a small force of the Antars had appeared near the city of Dangxia, and it was likely that Princess Anwinda had been kidnapped or killed by the Antars.

Therefore, when Shen Tong listened to Fang Lan's account, he asked, "If Anke wants to harm his nephew, will he also harm Princess An?" ”

Fang Lan said: "In fact, Anwinda has the intention of abolishing his son Anke and replacing his grandson, so Anke will attack the little prince." ”

Shen Tong was a little curious, and said, "At that time, Anker was only about ten years old, was he capable of dealing with his mother and nephew?" ”

The corners of Fang Lan's mouth raised a touch of pride: "King Anke is an unborn talent, he was given to Dang Xia by immortality, he is the king of men, and he is a son of heaven." ”

Shen Tong sighed in her heart, she once again felt that the Dangxia people were more "pure" than the Han people.

Since you won't let me ask who your master is, and bother you to restrain your expression, a fool can see that the person who sent you to assassinate Princess An must have something to do with King Anker, even if he is not King Anker.

At the beginning, Fang Lan was still talking about Dang Xia from a neutral point of view, but when it came to King Anke, she couldn't help but express her admiration for King Anke.

Therefore, nine times out of ten, her master is on the side of King Anker.

Look at Xiao Ren, he didn't show his stuff in the face of his own uncle.

Shen Tong didn't want to hear Fang Lan sing the praises of the king of people who was rare in a hundred years, she asked: "Old Princess An wants to support her grandson, that is, the little prince, so when King An Ke wanted to get rid of the little prince, she didn't resist, but just sent the little prince away?" ”

Fang Lan sneered: "She didn't dare, the great King Anke witnessed her adultery with her own eyes, what face did she have to stay in Dang Xia, King Anke was merciful and did not expose her ugly things to the world." ”

At this moment, Shen Tong understood that in this mother-son teaching, the mother of the party failed.

However, whether it is in the Daqi court or in the hearts of the people of Dangxia, Princess An has a very high prestige, if King An Ke kills her, or destroys her reputation, it will not only be difficult to convince the public, but may also cause more trouble, so he will push this matter on the An Tartar people.

In fact, Princess An Lao is afraid that she fled from Anxia after nine deaths.

"What about the little prince, is he also in Daqi?" Shen Tong asked.

Fang Lan laughed: "The whereabouts of the little prince and Prince Abu are unknown. “

Shen Tong was a little confused, this party summer palace maid has been in Daqi for many years, and her speech is still entangled.

"Why is there another Prince Abu?" Shen Tong asked.

Fang Lan said: "Prince Abu was born to the side concubine Hua of King Arutai, and he is the younger brother of the little prince, but that is fake. He is not the flesh and blood of King Arutai at all, he is the son of the unchaste Princess An Lao and an adulterer, and he is actually the half-brother of King Anke. ”

"Huh?" Shen Tong was taken aback, this party Xia court was also very chaotic, and she was already confused by such an intricate relationship.

"Maybe the little prince and Prince Abu have both been killed by King Anker?" Shen Tong asked.

Fang Lan said: "Who knows where the woman hid them, King Anke has sent several groups of people to look for him, but none of them have been found. However, since the woman was hidden in the royal monastery of the Great Qi Dynasty, there is a good chance that the two children are also in the Great Qi. ”

Shen Tong nodded, yes, if it weren't for Princess An hiding in the Ci'en Temple, where only the women of the Great Qi clan practiced, I am afraid she would have been found a long time ago. Since the whereabouts of the little prince and the prince Abu are still unknown, it is likely that they are also hidden in places such as the Temple of Mercy and Grace.

But these things are just to hear, Shen Tong was curious for a while, so he asked a few more words, and now that he knows, he threw them out of the clouds.

Fang Lan and Bi Su left the dyeing workshop overnight and rushed to Baoding Mansion; Shen Tong and his entourage only returned to the road the next day.

Half a day later, Mrs. Jiang, who did not go out of the city with them after the capital was broken, caught up with them.

came with Mrs. Jiang, as well as the old official, Ah Hua, and Ersan.

When she was in the capital, after receiving the news from Shen Tong, Mrs. Jiang found the three old officials according to the address given by Yun Qi, and they left the city a day later than Shen Tong and them.

Mrs. Jiang dressed up as a man, and she went out without much effort, first, Wu Jiang once said at the city gate that the group of funeral soldiers were Qin criminals, so the search was relaxed in front of the city gate, and secondly, her figure and appearance did have a bit of a male appearance.

Xiao Ren looked at the old official coldly, and after a while, he glanced at Shen Tong, and the two quietly walked out.

Xiao Ren said: "That old officer was a soldier. ”

Shen Tong gave a general account of the things in the village, and said: "The people in the village don't look normal, but this old official is quite reasonable." Emperor Chongwen's hiding in the back mountain, obviously only he knows, Ah Hua and Ersan are his people, and the two of them have always been responsible for taking care of Emperor Chongwen. ”

Xiao Ren was silent for a long time before he said, "Do you remember the Tartar Army I told you about?" ”

Of course, Shen Tong remembered that she was very interested in the Tartar Army at that time, and later asked the king of Yanbei County, but it was a pity that he was a child trapped in the palace since he was a child, how could he know the whereabouts of those people.
