Chapter 685: Famous Festival
Xu Qinghuan walked out of the house and saw Yu Jiang in the courtyard at a glance.
Yu Jiang was the emperor's personal guard, when she was detained in the capital, Yu Jiang would often come to her door to ask her, every time she heard Yu Jiang come to the door, she couldn't help but be afraid, not because she was afraid of this person, but because she felt that it was very hard to deal with.
Xu Qinghuan's steps were slightly slower, and Song Chengxuan beside her had already greeted her, blocking Yu Jiang's gaze at her.
This life is different, someone is sheltering her from the wind and rain in front, and the pickled things of the Li family have nothing to do with her.
"Song Dudu, Xu Gongren." Yu Jiang stepped forward and saluted.
Song Chengxuan bowed his head.
Yu Jiang was very respectful: "Hard work Song Governor, the emperor has learned about the affairs of Northern Xinjiang, and transferred people from Beijing to listen to the arrangement of Song Governor." ”
Yu Jiang said and handed the document in his hand to Song Chengxuan.
Xu Qinghuan knew Yu Jiang's personality for a long time, and he was respectful to people on the surface, but he was ruthless behind the scenes, especially for those who fell into his hands, and he was tortured in every way.
Song Chengxuan was here, but Yu Jiang didn't dare to be presumptuous, and quietly waited for Song Chengxuan's response.
"The culprit is inside," Song Chengxuan looked into the room, "Lord Yu can go and check at any time, but something happened before." ”
Song Chengxuan looked at the clerk beside him, and the clerk immediately stepped forward and said to Yu Jiang: "There are some other clues in the case, and the lower officials will carefully report to Lord Yu." ”
Yu Jiang nodded and looked at Song Chengxuan again, Song Dudu was wearing a dark robe, his eyes were deep, and his mind was unpredictable.
Northern Xinjiang is unstable, and the emperor wants the Song Governor to stabilize Changzhou, and now the momentum is flourishing and cannot be slackened.
Yu Jiang saluted again and led the people to the house.
Xu Qinghuan looked at Yu Jiang's back, Song Chengxuan reached out and grabbed her hand, and said in a deep voice: "This person is not simple, be careful." ”
She knew this, but it was just that Lord Song told her to do it, and the more she clenched her hand, the tighter it became.
This person has always been loud and sound, Xu Qinghuan is thinking about whether to let Lord Song make a floor tonight, although it is very cold in the north, but think about his sweaty appearance when he went into battle shirtless last night, he is not afraid of his body bones!
Two men entered the door.
Xu Qinghuan looked at Song Chengxuan: "Uncle guess what the emperor will do?" ”
Song Chengxuan said: "Leave Li Xu in the north, take away Li Changyan and Mrs. Li, hold the lifeblood of the Li family in your hands, and don't be afraid that Li Xu will have a different heart."
There is one thing that the emperor didn't think clearly, to be able to hand over his parents to him, Li Xu had already been prepared, and Li Changyan and his wife had already become Li Xu's pawns and could be sacrificed at any time. ”
This is Li Xu's scheme.
Xu Qinghuan felt that Mrs. Li should be very pleased, Mrs. Li was afraid that Li Xu would be bound by feelings, she went to the capital to be hostage, Mrs. Li told her not to lose Li Xu's face, and now Mrs. Li doesn't know what to think in her heart.
……
Xu Qing'an heard movement outside, and Meng Lingyun immediately stepped forward to tell him: "Someone from the imperial court has come, the eldest lady said that this person is the emperor's personal guard, don't worry about the affairs here, that lord ......"
Meng Lingyun lowered his voice: "It's a cool official." ”
"Cool official, good," Xu Qingan said and kicked Li Changyan, "The road to Beijiang is long, and the master is very happy today." ”
Xu Qingan stood up, dug in the mountains, found a crumpled talisman and threw it on Li Changyan: "This reward you, you have saved my fifth uncle, my talisman is worth ten thousand gold, although it is a pity to give you, but the master is an atmospheric person, and the matter between you and the fifth uncle is canceled, don't say that our Xu family doesn't know how to repay the eyes, and we can't talk about personal feelings in front of righteousness."
Now you have to focus on the court, if you die, you will naturally write it off, you will survive by luck, and the Xu family will find you again to count your grudges, and you have to take your words to heart. ”
Li Changyan's face was bruised, the prince of Anyi Hou actually threatened him like this, if he survived, would the Xu family come up to make up for it?
What kind of enmity is there, there is no enmity at all, it is all enmity.
He finally "saved" Xu Wu, but now it seems that it is useless.
"Don't lose the talisman," Xu Qing'an said, "If you lose it, I'll ask you for compensation." ”
After speaking, he stood up and walked out, which was much more fun than going to the flower boat.
While Xu Qingan walked out of the door, Li Changyan looked at Li Mao and urged in a low voice: "Bring the Wang family over." ”
Li Mao shook his head in alarm.
"If you don't want to die, do as I say," Li Changyan gritted his teeth and said, "Hurry up." ”
Li Mao grabbed Mrs. Li's arm tightly: "Father can't do this." ”
This unfilial son, he knew that Li Mao was useless like this, and he might as well not have this son.
Li Changyan supported himself and got up and walked in front of Mrs. Li: "The court is here, it is the emperor's personal guard, it is best to make your personal relationship with Gao Jiansong clear to the court, the Li family has more than 100 lives, and it can't be thrown into your hands."
When I married you......"
Li Changyan gritted his teeth when he said: "You didn't help the Li family at all, but made me lose face, I wanted to die with you, but I was reluctant to let these children die, Xu'er is the most innocent, just embarked on a career but was affected by you, you still have some conscience, just tell the truth." ”
Li Changyan said and looked at Qing'e: "You are the same, those words must be carefully explained to the court officials." ”
Qing'e nodded: "Don't worry, master, slave and maid...... Ben is to tell the truth. ”
Li Mao's arms trembled.
"And you," Li Changyan looked at Li Mao fiercely, "You have been in contact with Uncle Jiang for many years, and you didn't know that he had a bad intention, if it weren't for the imperial court to investigate the case, I would have killed you now." ”
Li Mao saw Li Changyan's cold gaze, his heart couldn't help but shrink, he believed that his father's words were true, if he could get the Li family out of crime, his father would not hesitate to kill him with his own hands.
Li Mao closed his eyes and tears flowed down the corners of his eyes, the parents he missed were like this.
The mother is like this, and the father is not what he is on weekdays, regardless of the relationship between husband and wife, father and son in order to survive.
Li Mao's whole person collapsed: "I will tell the truth." "Life and death mean nothing to him now.
The door was opened, and Li Changyan immediately turned around to greet him when he heard the voice.
Mrs. Li took the opportunity to look at Qing'e: "Who asked you to come?" ”
Qing'e's eyes didn't dodge: "It's the slave who wants to come by herself, eldest lady...... Now you might as well tell the truth, anyway, Master Gao is no longer here, because you don't have to cover it up for him anymore, you will only harm the Li family, the master and several masters. ”
Mrs. Li clenched her hands, if she had something to do with Gao Jiansong and admitted that Gao Jiansong was sending a letter to her, the Li family would naturally be fine, and Song Chengxuan and Xu Qinghuan would not be kind enough to find Qing'e to save the Li family.
It's really Li Xu, Li Xu wants to sacrifice her reputation, has he ever thought about what kind of predicament she will face in this way, Li Changyan will abandon her, everyone will point fingers at her, and she can't wait for her to die immediately, she will definitely suffer for it.
Could it be that Li Xu has other arrangements?
will quietly take her away and raise her, and when Li Xu ascends the throne, she will be justified.
What if Li Xu doesn't?
Mrs. Gao clearly wanted to kill her.
Mrs. Li can't feel at ease, she wants to let Li Xu know that Northern Xinjiang can't do without her.
Mrs. Li looked at Li Mao: "You find a chance to find Mother Li and ask her to come to see me, I have something to explain to her, now...... That's all I can do...... It's okay for me to die...... Keep your brothers. ”
"Mother," Li Mao was like a fish in his throat, "you really ......"
"I didn't," Mrs. Li looked at Li Mao firmly and whispered, "I didn't, but to save you...... I can only admit ......"
Just thinking about it made her feel like she had been blasphemed.
She closed her eyes and bit her lip so hard, the blood slowly melting in her mouth, so bitter.
