Chapter 178: Conspiracy

At this time, Huainan.

Perfume County is where Leng Qingxiu stays, she is wearing a filial piety dress, and the white dress shows that she is thin and beautiful.

Many accompanying subordinates saw her kneeling in front of the ancestral hall burning paper and incense for Prime Minister Leng Cheng, and they couldn't bear it.

Leng Qingxiu closed her eyes even more, and let two tears slip out of the corners of her eyes: "Father, you are so good, I will definitely take care of the Leng family you left behind."

"Miss, don't be sad, I'm afraid that the chasing soldiers of the imperial court are coming soon, let's think about how to deal with it first, you should also take care of yourself!"

The old butler helped her up, his eyes full of sadness: "Now you are the only lineage left by the master!"

The Leng family has been an official in the court for many years, and their ancestors are a family, so they have some background in Huainan, and these important domestic servants have followed Leng Qingxiu to escape from the imperial city and live a good life.

In addition, Leng Qingxiu is also a person with means, but after a few days of getting along with them, these people have already followed her.

She stood up along the butler's support, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then said, "Go and call the spies over, how are they following the movements of the Zhu family?"

The old housekeeper hurriedly answered, waved away the subordinates, and served Leng Qingxiu a cup of tea, let her rest in the ancestral hall, and then went to find a spy to come over and talk back.

Leng Qingxiu sat on the precious mahogany Taishi chair, and when she lowered her eyes, how could there be any sadness in her eyes? There is only rejoicing and resentment.

Fortunately, when she fled, she pushed her father down in time to make a road sign to stop the people who wanted to run into their Leng family.

Otherwise, I am afraid that at this time, not only will they not leave the imperial city, but they will also fall into Zhu Jiu's hands, and Zhu Jiu will punish them!

That night, if Xuanyuan Che hadn't attacked the city, according to her plan, Zhu Jiu would have been beheaded by Emperor Yan a long time ago!

But on the contrary, a hindering Xuanyuan Che appeared in the middle, not to mention her good deeds, and caused the Leng family to lose overnight.

If she hadn't noticed that something was wrong, she would have prepared to escape in advance, but she was afraid that the consequences would be unimaginable.

Thinking of this, Leng Qingxiu felt a chill all over her body, and her fingers became more and more clenched: Father, don't worry, my daughter will definitely take down the heads of Xuanyuan Che and Zhu Jiu to pay tribute to you!

I hope you have a spirit in the sky and bless your daughter with all the best.

When she was silently reading in her heart, she suddenly heard footsteps approaching outside, she gradually put down the teacup and raised her eyes coldly: "Where did you find out where the Zhu family is?"

Hearing this, the lean spy hurriedly knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "Master Qiqi, my subordinates have not found any traces of Zhu Tai'an and Zhu Mo, but they have found the whereabouts of Zhu Qin, Zhu Hua, and Zhu Qi, and they seem to be hiding in the northwest capital with the Zhu family army."

It is a famous ghost town, and it is located in the desert of the northwest, where people flee from the desert every year, not to mention the government, and even the hooligans don't want to go there.

How could the Zhu family hide in that place for no reason?

It stands to reason that since Xuanyuan Che loves Zhu Jiu, he will never go against the Zhu family.

Moreover, she also received news that Zhu Jiu's position as the general of Zhenguo has not been cut down so far, which shows that Xuanyuan Che has great trust in her.

Fortunately......

Leng Qingxiu's eyes flashed slightly, and he waved his hand to the spy: "Go down, you go and find out where Zhu Tai'an, Zhu Mo and the others have gone."

"Yes, master."

After the spies retreated, Leng Qingxiu took the token and gave it to the personal maid, who was the secret guard of the Leng family and had the contact information of the secret guard.

Over the years, the Leng family has relied on the silver money power that has been eroded from the hands of the imperial court, and the army under their control is no less than that of the Zhu family's army, and even more sophisticated than the Zhu family's army.

It's just that the hiding is too deep, and Leng Xiang refuses to use them until he has to, and he doesn't even think about using this force when he escapes from the imperial city.

He intends to leave these things to future generations, and his generation is defeated, so that future generations can rise again with the capital he left behind.

But this Dark Guard finally fell into the hands of Leng Qingxiu.

After the maid took the token, Leng Qingxiu ordered, "Inform the people of the Dark Guard, no matter what, don't pay it

At any cost, I will capture Zhu Qin, Zhu Hua and others alive! This time I went to the capital of Xudu, only to win, not to lose!"

"Yes, master." The maid Qiu Yan took the token and quickly retreated.

She was as light as a swallow, but she disappeared after a few strokes.

The old housekeeper couldn't help but sigh when he saw that she was busy with this, "Miss, the local clans in Huainan outside have all come to see us, and in addition, the brothers who were banished from the Leng family before the master's death also brought people to meet them, do you want to meet them?"

"Naturally, the imperial court has sent people to attack Huainan, and this land in Huainan must be defended no matter what."

Leng Qingxiu's eyes narrowed slightly, and her voice was soft but extremely ruthless.

As soon as these words came out, the old housekeeper breathed a sigh of relief.

He was originally worried that the Leng family would fall into the hands of Leng Qingxiu and would be defeated because of Leng Qingxiu's kindness.

Now it seems that he has thought too much, and it is really a wise move for Lord Leng Xiang to hand over the Leng family to the eldest lady.

Subsequently, Leng Qingxiu went to the lobby to meet the guests and talk to the uncles and brothers of the Leng clan, on the surface, they came to visit Leng Qingxiu, and by the way, they worshiped Leng Cheng, but in fact, they wanted to cooperate with Leng Qingxiu to defend Huainan.

When Emperor Yan was there, the place south of Huainan was a piece of fat, rich and oily, rich in water and soil, and no one was willing to let go, even if there was a Xuanyuan Emperor now, he would not think that he would take advantage of them without spending a single soldier!

These families can survive for a hundred years, which one is a simple role? It's a big deal to make another scene, anyway, they won't give up the territory they have in hand.

As for the people on this land, they are living in hunger and cold, and the people are not able to make a living?

I'm sorry, go to the court, it's not their business.

After getting the firm answer that Leng Qingxiu was in the same camp as them, the people of the Leng clan and the Huainan family were completely relieved and had the confidence to fight with Xuanyuan Che.

At the same time, these people also put the way of doing business in Xuanyuan Kingdom through the dark line left by Leng Qingxiu when he was in the Xuanyuan Palace.

During this period, when Li Shoufu and several generals of Northern Xuanyuan sent troops to attack Huainan several times, they were all united by the clans of Huainan to resist, and even used old and weak women and children as hostages, forcing them to retreat.

This move is really despicable and insidious, and more than half a month has passed since the news reached Zhu Jiu's ears.

At that time, Zhu Jiu returned to the Xuanyuan Palace again, and still stayed in the Changle Palace, which was the queen's residence, and the palace people who served her before were all changed, according to the news that Hanmei inquired from Luo Zheng, Zhu Jiu learned: After she escaped from the palace with the words of ghosts and gods, those palace people were also implicated by her, and they were all beaten by Xuanyuan Che and released from the palace.

Thankfully, there were no injuries to these people.

Zhu Jiu didn't dare to contact them rashly, but he was afraid that they would be implicated by her again, so he only asked Hanmei to take the silver and return it to them as compensation.
