readx;

After Yan Beiquan led people away, Zhou Zhilan collapsed to the ground as if she had been drained of her last strength, which frightened Long Jinyu. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The girl hurriedly rushed out to ask for a doctor, but was stopped by Zhou Zhilan. "Xiao Yu doesn't have to go. She took a few deep breaths, half-got up, called Long Jinyu to her side, and said earnestly: "Don't you want to ask Yan Beiquan why he has so much hatred with our family?"

The girl was slightly stunned, of course she wanted to know, but it seemed that her mother did not want to mention the events of the year, and she did not want her mother to be sad. pursed his lips and whispered: "Those who should know will know sooner or later, and there are some things that I don't know to reduce my troubles." Mom, don't think about it so much, those officials are always scaring people, maybe it will be better after a while!"

Zhou Zhilan gently patted the girl's slender back and sighed deeply. She didn't know that her daughter was comforting her, but there were some things she had to know sooner or later.

"You sit down and listen to me, there are some things you should know, and it concerns your ....." Zhou Zhilan's words made Long Jinyu faintly uneasy, she didn't know what was about her.

"The Yan family turned out to be a powerful military general official in Sijiu City, and Yan Qingtian, the head of the Yan family, was the father of Yan Overseer, who was the general of the court at that time. Once he led troops to inspect Jiangnan and was seriously injured, your father saved his life, and the relationship between the Yan family and the Long family began!?" Recalling the past, Zhou Zhilan's already haggard face became even more exhausted. Long Yankang was kind to the Yan family, and Yan Qingtian and Long Yankang hit it off again, and the two have become confidants since then.

At that time, Yan Qingtian was in charge of tens of thousands of Qing troops, and the Long family was also a well-known family of traditional Chinese medicine in Jiangnan. At that time, Zhou Zhilan happened to be pregnant, and once drinking and chatting, Yan Qingtian learned the news, and said at that time that if Brother Long gave birth to a boy, he would become brothers with the children of the Yan family, and if he was a daughter, he would be allowed to come to his house as a daughter-in-law. At that time, it was just a drunken joke, but who knew that when Zhou Zhilan gave birth to a child, it was a daughter. Yan Qingtian really sent a lot of dowry gifts, asking the pink baby girl to be his daughter-in-law.

It's just that later the Yan family disaster happened, and the Long family was also affected, and this matter sank into the sea, no one knew, and Zhou Zhilan also regarded these past as scars and didn't mention it.

"And ...... girl?" Long Jinyu bit her lower lip tightly, not daring to ask any more, afraid of hearing the name she least wanted to hear.

"It's you, Yan Qingtian doesn't have a daughter, and I like you very much when I see you in swaddling clothes, so I promised you to his fourth son 'Yan Shijie' is the current overseer, Yan Beiquan. "Yan Beiquan? I have a marriage contract with Yan Beiquan? This is like a thunderbolt from the blue, which makes Long Jinyu a little confused. The one who kept saying that he owed him and looking for his own business, it turned out that he knew that the man had long known that she was the daughter of the Long family, and everything was under his control!

"No... No... I won't say yes, I won't say yes......" The girl's eyebrows tightened, tears overflowed her eyes, and her heart felt like a big stone had been pressed, cold and heavy.

"I don't want to, I don't want to have anything to do with the Yan family anymore, but it seems that this is destined, you and Yan Beiquan are destined to have a fate...... Yu'er, I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for your father, I don't know what else he will do to torture us......"

"Mom......" Long Jinyu threw herself into her arms, although her mother's arms were warm, she was still cold at this time, from heart to body!

Zhou Zhilan closed her eyes tightly, letting tears run down the corners of her eyes, soaking her face.

After the tragedy of the Yan family that year, she left Jiangnan with her children, begging for a living all the way, and then came to the capital.

She thought that there was no one in the Yan family in the world, but Yan Beiquan's sudden appearance broke the peace of her family.

She didn't know how Yan Beiquan would become the commander of the Northern Army and how he would retaliate against them, but this incident made their lives no longer peaceful......

Northern Army Chamber -

Yan Beiquan sat in the first place, and his deep eyes were as gloomy as midnight. The cold gaze swept over every resolute face, and the figure spoke sharply: "Don't speak, have no opinions to say?" He opened his mouth coldly, making the generals feel cold behind their backs, and they couldn't help but sit up straight.

"Overseer, I suggest that Division Commander Yang move south, directly eat the Feng family's army, and directly recapture the Qingcheng area. The one who spoke was Song Zhairen, the commander of the Northern Army division in Jinbei, sitting in the position of Yan Beiquan's deputy, which shows that Yan Beiquan values him, and he is also one of the veterans of the Northern Army.

"I don't agree......" Cao Tiesheng was still as hot as ever, stood up with a big thorn, and sang against Song Zhairen.

"I don't agree, Lao Yang has finally pacified the south, and the foundation is not yet stable, why do you let him fight? Besides, Feng Batian's old thing is more refined than a monkey with hair, is this not clear to make Master Yang suffer?!" Although Cao Tiesheng is a rough character, he has experienced a lot of wars, so he still has some ability, the former commander of the Northern Army once said that Cao Tiesheng is now Zhang Fei, thick and fine.

"Then do you say I'm going or you're going? Don't forget, Feng Jun is far more difficult to deal with than the usual local ruffians, and you and I are not all together!" Song Zhairen's slightly rich Guozi face was helpless, and his fingers tapped on the conference table.

"Then what do you say? We don't care? Let Feng Jun do nothing?" Cao Tie was angry, but he couldn't think of an idea for a while, so he could only throw himself back into the chair.

"What are you anxious about? I also want to take care of it, but I can't leave Jinbei alone, right?" Cao Tiesheng was born as a horse bandit and was incorporated by Yan Beiquan a few years ago, so Song Zhairen looked down on him in his heart, thinking that he had developed limbs, a simple mind, and was impulsive in everything.

"Say a word! Listen to the Overseers. Xiao Fang's tone was calm, maybe it was because he had been with Yan Beiquan for a long time, and even his unhurried and impatient personality was the same, he was Yan Beiquan's adjutant, and many times his words also represented Yan Beiquan, and no matter how ignorant of current affairs, people would not dare to touch the nail at this time.

"Look, Overseer—" Looking at the first man with a changing face, Xiao stopped talking.

"Are you all said and done?" he was still cold, and his eyes were as cold as midnight.

As soon as he stood up, a cold aura pressed against the entire conference room, and the others also stood up in unison, looking at the man rigorously, as if as long as he gave an order, they could go out to the battlefield and fight bloodily.

"This time, I will personally go to meet Feng Batian. As soon as the man's words came out, all the generals were shocked.

"The overseers must not, the time of the Northern Army in the capital is still short, how can you leave as the commander-in-chief?" Song Zhairen spoke first, followed by a voice of agreement.

"That's it, you can't go, Feng Batian's old thing has made it clear that he has intentions for the Northern Army, and you went just in time for him to catch him as a bargaining chip to threaten the Northern Army, we can't take any risks!" Cao Tiesheng's eyes widened angrily, and his beard looked more like 'Zhang Fei'!

"Otherwise, I'll go. Ji Junmo spoke at the right time, and his clear voice was a little low. "Although I am a layman in the war, I am a staff officer, I will definitely not lose to Feng Batian's old guy in terms of scheming, even if I am not his opponent, I can delay for some time and wait for Division Commander Yang to come over. He looked at Yan Beiquan with an indifferent expression, and when he saw that the man didn't react, he said, "If you ignore it, the Feng family will be even more arrogant." Joining Feng Batian to capture Qingcheng undoubtedly fueled his arrogance, and it will be unfavorable to us in the future. So let me try it?" Although his analysis was correct, Yan Beiquan did not agree to his request.

Yan Beiquan is well aware of the current situation, the great powers and Fusang are eyeing each other, if the local armies fight to the death, they will only let others sit and reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Now the three armies are in full force, with the Northern Army fighting bravely in the north, the Feng Army stationed in the south, and the Jiang Army in Shuling has the best military resources. If the three armed forces can reach a consensus, the defeat of the foreign enemy will be as overwhelming as possible.

However, he also knew that the three armies had always been at odds for a long time, and it was very difficult to reach a consensus, so this time he decided to go in person to show the sincerity of the Northern Army and test Feng Jun.

"Don't fight anymore. I have made up my mind, and it is useless to say more. This time, as long as Brigade Commander Cao and the guards are with me, the others will stay at home. Uncle Lao Song has bothered a lot!" He passed by Song Zhairen and patted him on the shoulder, as if he had put a thousand catties of heavy burden on him.

After briefly explaining the plan and date of this dispatch, Yan Beiquan left the others behind and returned to the study.
