Chapter 56: A Good Thing

"Brother, sister, I have advanced to the extreme realm." Xiao Yan saw that his brother's face was heavy, and he thought that the news of his promotion should be good news.

Xiao Cong and Shen Qingyi stared at her together.

Xiao Yan was startled by the staring of the four eyes of the two, and snorted: "This, isn't it bad news?" ”

Xiao Cong suddenly laughed, got up, stretched out his arms to hug Xiao Yan, let go of his hand and pressed her shoulder, and said with a smile: "This is a good thing, a great thing!" ”

He already knew that this younger brother's martial arts talent was outstanding, but he didn't expect it to be so good!

Fifteen-year-old ascending to the Extreme Realm, the ultimate qualification!

The haze brought by the county lord of Qingchuan dissipated in an instant.

Xiao Cong happily patted Xiao Yan on the shoulder twice and said, "When Ah Yan is nineteen years old, he will definitely be able to enter the Cave True Realm." "His younger brother is no worse than the county lord of Qingchuan!

Xiao Yan saw that his brother was happy, and he was also happy.

After Shen Qingyi was surprised, he asked, "How did Ah Yan advance?" ”

Xiao Yan told the situation at that time.

Xiao Cong and Shen Qingyi's faces were a little strange after hearing this, and the county lord of Qingchuan helped Ah Yan break through? - I don't think it smells of calculation.

Xiao Cong looked at Xiao Yan's excellent appearance, and suddenly thought: Ah Yan has such a good appearance, he won't be favored by the county lord, right?

His face suddenly turned bad, although this county lord did not have any bad rumors in terms of male sex, but six out of ten women of the Tang royal family were all strong, if Qingchuan took a fancy to Ah Yan......

Ah Yan marries Qingchuan? Don't even think about it! Unless the three brains of the saint, the prince, and the county lord are all pumped.

Qingchuan marries Ah Yan? Unless their Lanling Xiao clan's brains are pumped, they will "marry" a genius who has great potential to become a "master of the town clan".

But what if Ayan falls in love? What if Kiyokawa makes a beauty plan or something...... Ah Yan is so innocent, how can he fight Qingchuan's deep scheming?

Xiao Cong thought about it and was in a bad mood, and instantly felt that Weizhou, where the county lord of Qingchuan was there, was a deep pool, and it was better to send Ah Yan to the Jingnan Army as soon as possible.

He said with a stern expression: "The county lord of Qingchuan is unpredictable, and it is best for Ah Yan to avoid her in the future." ”

Shen Qingyi naturally didn't think that the county lord of Qingchuan had taken a fancy to Xiao Yan, but she also had dislike in her heart, and echoed Xiao Cong's words: "If Ah Yan is involved with the county lord of Qingchuan, I am afraid that he will be involved in the dispute for the prince, your fourth brother has good intentions." ”

Xiao Yan knew that her brother and sister-in-law were good for her, so she naturally had no opinion, and thought that she would repay her after owing the help of the county lord of Qingchuan.

The next day, Xiao Yan accompanied Xiao Cong on the patrol. Her mask has been replaced with a new one, and Xiao Yu ordered the craftsman to make a pair of them, and gave the other one to Shen Qingyi before leaving the house, so that she could replace it in case of an accident, and this will be used. The original mask was rested here by Shen Qingyi, and the maid took the broken belt and used gold and silver silk to mix it into the mulberry silkworm thread to reweave the tassel. The silver wire tether of the county lord of Qingchuan was sandwiched by Shen Qingyi in the visit gift sent to Leshan Residence and returned it.

The county lord of Qingchuan took the tether and smiled meaningfully: The original thing is returned, regardless of the relationship? That's not going to work.

The clerk of the Ministry of War, this should go to Hezhou City.

***

On the same day, the 400-mile express order of the military department arrived at the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion of Hexi Province.

Xiao Yu looked at the order letter and sighed: "Sure enough! ”

The order letter in his hand read: "Order of the Ministry of War: Li Yuzhen, the lord of Qingchuan County, will go to the armies of Hexi Province to practice, and the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion of Hexi Province will be properly placed, and the order will be carried out immediately." Behind it is the small seal of the emperor stamped with the word "Li" of the Sage Imperial Office, the signature and seal of the military department and the large seal of the military department.

It is said that the ministry order does not need to be signed by the emperor, but the Tiance Shi practice order is an exception, which is handed over to the emperor by the Tiance Academy for signature, and then directly issued by the palace to the military department for execution, although it is only a ministerial order, because the emperor signed, the weight is different.

"Properly placed." Xiao Yu said heavily, put the order letter on the official case, looked at Changshi Gu Di, and said with two points of meaning, "This 'proper' is a big article." ”

Not only must we really arrange the practice of the county lord of Qingchuan, but also ensure her safety in Hexi Road, which is appropriate.

Improper consequences, hehe.

Gu Di has always been unsmiling, and his expression at this moment is even more solemn, "Weizhou Hengshan Outpost is indeed closer to the location where the county lord was attacked than the Zhongrui Army, but the county lord asked for help from Hengshan Outpost, I'm afraid there is a plan." Or rather, it's a matter of following the trend. If you expect it to be worse, even the location of the attack is in the county lord's budget. ”

Gu Di is known as Zhibi Sima Yi in the Hexi Army, one of the important reasons is that he is thoughtful and cautious, always predicts the worst situation, and responds to the worst situation, but the opponent often does not have the means of planning the worst situation he expected, so the plan is naturally separated, Xiao Yu often calls him "a hundred secrets". Now Gu Di is also not afraid to use the worst-case scenario to infer the wisdom of the Qingchuan County Lord, and would rather elevate the opponent and make his own side foolproof.

Xiao Yu felt that the worst speculation might be the real situation. Wherever the county lord of Qingchuan goes, there will be storms, among which there must be the secret stirring of the king of Qi, and perhaps the means of the saint, but the location of this county lord every time he is attacked makes people feel "too coincidental".

Just looking at the location where she was attacked, they were all in the Qi King faction or the military generals close to the Qi King faction, even if the faction was not visible on the surface, it was definitely not the prince's faction, or it was a military general who embezzled military salaries or relied on the door shade to be in the upper position and lacked ability, the dismissal of these people was not only a blow to the Qi King faction, but also a purge of the greedy and incompetent people in the army.

With Tiance Academy's emphasis on the Qingchuan County Lord, the county lord's defense of travel must be tight, even if the news in the army cannot be completely blocked, but in the military camp will not be assassinated, can only be done when out of the camp, but the Qingchuan county lord chooses when to go out of the camp or where to inspect, that is her decision, even if the person who secretly sets up the bureau can use some forces to push or prompt her to make a decision, but this "prompting" may eventually fall into the Qingchuan county lord's hand, and the attacker thinks that the appropriate place to attack and kill is the location chosen by the county lord.

If it was really as they had imagined, then the layout strategy of the county lord of Qingchuan would be too terrifying. What's even more terrifying is that she not only sets up a game, but also uses herself as a charging pawn, raises a sword with battle, and seeks a breakthrough at the moment of life and death. This means that being her enemy is not only facing a wise man, but also a sharp man, the wise man plots the game, wins thousands of miles away, the sharp man breaks the game, and one force drops ten times, this kind of wise and sharp character is often the most headache for the strategist.

Gu Di has a headache right now.

If this wise man still has the status and bearing that can affect people, it will be even more troublesome.

Xiao Yu agrees with him to speculate at the worst, thinking more about the opponent, so that he can think more thoroughly.

If the county lord of Qingchuan wants to find out anything in the Hexi army, they are not worried, because the Hexi army has nothing to investigate, and the private soldiers of the Xiao clan will not be kept in the army, but they are worried about the influence of the county lord of Qingchuan on the generals, especially the impact on the middle and lower-level officers and low-level soldiers.

As the eldest daughter of the crown prince, she has the qualifications to inherit the throne in the future, especially she has this ability, which is much better than the ten-year-old prince's concubine, if the prince ascends the throne as the emperor, the next prince will be the lord of Qingchuan County. The influence of such a county lord in the army is definitely greater than that of any prince.

The army is the place where force is most admired, and the middle and lower rank officers and soldiers are too far away from the emperor, and although the imperial power is majestic, it may not be as majestic as the general who commands the army, and even the general's orders are more effective than the emperor's holy decree. In particular, the Xiao family has been operating in Hexi for more than 170 years, and is the hereditary governor of the unified army, and his majesty in the army has long surpassed the imperial power. However, when a person like the lord of Qingchuan who directly represents the imperial power comes to the army, it is to give the soldiers the opportunity to directly face the imperial power, and if this one still has the bearing of convincing people, it will deepen the impression of the middle and lower sergeants on the imperial power and make them feel that the imperial power is very close. This, of course, Shaw was not happy to see.

Of course, it was only a matter of time before the county lord of Qingchuan went to the Hexi army to practice, and they had already prepared, but they didn't expect to get to the Hexi army under such a sudden situation of being attacked and killed, and this highlighted the rationality and importance of the word "proper" in the military order.

Gu Dijian said: "Since the county lord is recuperating from his injuries in the Wasion Army, let's start with the practice of the Wasion Army?" The specific position can be arranged by Wei Huairui. ”

Xiao Yun's eyes deepened, this was to test Wei Yun's attitude.

The Wasion Army is one of the five armies in Hexi, but the current military leader, Wei Yun, is not a member of the Xiao family.

Wei Yun is the descendant of Jingzhao Webster, his father and the head of the Wei family are still alive, as the third son and the head of the first army, his position in the Wei family is of course very important, but it is not important enough to represent Jingzhao Wei, Xiao Yu does not attach importance to Jingzhao Wei, but Wei Yun. Although the children of the family must always be consistent with the position of the family, especially the children of their descendants, there are exceptions, such as giving the family an extra path.

The military order of the Governor's Mansion was given to Weizhou in the afternoon of the same day.

On the same night, Xiao Chengxin ran and killed several horses and galloped all the way back to Hezhou from Weizhou, and handed Xiao Cong's secret letter to Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu's face changed after seeing it, and he took two hidden guards out of the house and went to the ancestral hall in Lanling.

The ancestral hall is built on the slope of the hill, there is a large dense forest in the north, there are several bamboo buildings built in the forest, some are simple in appearance, some are delicate and elegant, but they are all a quiet black shadow in the night.

Xiao Yu entered the easternmost bamboo building, and after going upstairs, he called respectfully in front of the door: "Fourth uncle." ”

The door opened, revealing a faint candle flame.

Xiao Yu took off his shoes and entered, there was no bed in the room, only a seat, and there was an old man with drooping jaw sitting cross-legged, his skin was fair and smooth under the candlelight, and he looked about the same age as Xiao Yu, but he was actually sixty and five.

This is Xiao Yu's fourth uncle Xiao Xian (xie), the Great Perfection of the Cave True Realm, except for a few uncles who live in seclusion in the mountains and don't ask about the world, this is the first master of the Lanling Xiao clan.

Xiao Xian glanced at him.

Xiao Yu knew that this fourth uncle didn't like to be verbose, so he saluted and said directly: "The county lord of Qingchuan has broken through the cave true realm, and the military department has issued a practice order, and he is currently in the Weisheng Army." ”

Xiao Xian sighed, "How old is she, eighteen or nineteen?" ”

Xiao Yu said: "It will be nineteen in February this year. ”

Xiao Xian sighed, "It's really the back waves of the Yangtze River...... lowered his eyebrows and thought for a while, and said, "Xiao Jiu, Xiao Eleven." ”

Xiao Jiu is Xiao Xun's cousin Xiao Xun, in the later stage of the Cave True Realm.

Xiao Shiyi is Xiao Jian, the cousin of the other branch, in the middle of the Cave True Realm.

Xiao Yu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes." ”

During the practice of the Qingchuan County Lord in Hexi Road, he was secretly protected by these two cousins of the Cave True Realm.

There must have been a hidden guard in the late stage of the Cave True Realm by the side of that county lord, but it was the hidden guard of the royal family, not the Xiao family. In order to ensure the personal safety of the Qingchuan County Lord in Hexi, the five people sent over to the Extreme Realm were not enough.

"Anything else?" Xiao Xian looked at him.

A smile overflowed on Xiao Yan's lips, "Ah Yan has broken through to the Ascending Extreme Realm." ”

Xiao Xian's eyebrows twitched, it seemed to be expected, but his eyes were a little too complicated, and he sighed slightly: "The better this kid's talent, I'm afraid it's ......."

He still remembered that his third uncle Xiao Chong, who had already achieved the Great Perfection of the Cave True Realm fifteen years ago, vomited blood and retreated under that person's move, but because of this, he also comprehended the innate opportunity and broke through to the innate realm that martial artists dreamed of after five years of retreat, but this uncle still warned them not to take the Qingning Courtyard lightly.

Now Xiao Yan's martial arts talent is gradually revealed, which also confirms the guess in their hearts, that person is probably coming for Xiao Yan's talent.

But this talent is really from Xiao Yu's genetics?

Xiao Xian coughed in his heart, it was better to believe in the inheritance of the next generation.

But his second brother, Xiao Shao, the last generation of Liang Guogong, has not been able to break through the Cave Truth Realm in his life, and it is estimated that this next generation has to be counted upwards.

“…… That's a good thing. Xiao Xian lowered his eyebrows for a while and said this. He also asked about Xiao Yan's situation when he advanced, and when he learned that the county lord of Qingchuan was helping, he was silent for a while and said, "This is also a good thing." ”

Xiao Yu walked out of the bamboo building with a calm brow, and when he walked to the bottom of the square of the ancestral hall, he stood for a while, thinking about what the fourth uncle said, "This is also a good thing", and complicated feelings surged in his heart.

The author has something to say: why is "this also a good thing"? Ho ho ho ho! ——

Anyway, it's back! When I opened the refrigerator and saw two big bags of grilled shredded squid in the refrigerator, I was so sad, did I want to give it away? I can't help it!

Post first and go to dinner.

If there is a worm, please mention it, change it at night.
