"Ding Daquan's intention is to promote Ma Qian, the magistrate of Hezhou, as the pacifier of Hezhou Road and the magistrate of Chongqing Prefecture. He said that Ma Qian had meritorious service in guarding Chongqing during the Battle of Diaoyu City. But Alang knew that, and this person had no outstanding performance.
…”
In the middle of his words, Han Qi'an turned around and saw Li Xia staring at the map of Hanzhong City, running his fingers between the Han River and several Shu roads.
"Alang?"
"Mr. Yining continues, I'm listening."
"Alang said that Li Xiling rebelled, and ordered Jiang Fan to search for him... But why did he run away? Everyone has their own secrets, can you ask Alang to make it clear?"
Li Xia was silent for a moment and said, "Okay, he is my biological father."
"What?!"
Han Qian was shocked and dropped the letter in his hand to the ground.
"..."
a long time.
Han Qian asked: "Alang is saying that Mr. Li... went to help Wu Qian Yichu?"
Li Xia said: "Mr. Yi Ning knows what this means? The current emperor Zhao Yun has no sons, only a nephew. As a result, Li Yong personally admitted that he had an affair with Huang Dingxi, as if to say, 'Your Majesty, you don't even have a nephew.
There is only one cuckold for your brother. Well, if Li Yong died because of this, what about his son Li Xia? If Zhao Yun killed Li Yong, could he still keep Li Xia to guard Sichuan and Shu? Can he still not kill Li Xia?
?”
Han Qian was stunned for a moment, feeling Li Xia's anger.
He had never seen Li Xia so angry.
"Alang, calm down, this matter..."
"Wu Qian is satisfied. He is not afraid of death. He only needs to remove the emperor's only close relative from the throne and replace him with a descendant of the clan. Li Yong wants to ruin everything I have done for Wu Qian's great loyalty."
"Alang, your father...Mr. Li...Mr. Li..."
Li Xia's face became increasingly grim.
He was unwilling to tell Han Qi'an about this before.
Because if he couldn't explain clearly, he didn't say anything, and if everything was explained clearly, he was afraid that he would hear Han Qi'an persuade him... to kill Li Yong to avoid future troubles.
Li Xia also knew that this was a serious problem, but he didn't take action after all.
"Mr. Li will not do this. A father... a father will never bury his son's future and life with his own hands..."
"I thought he wouldn't do it!" Li Xia said, "Now, he just did it."
Han Qi'an pondered and asked slowly: "Did Alang misunderstand Mr. Li? Maybe he wanted to eliminate these hidden dangers?"
Li Xia shook his head and continued to stare at the map.
He knew clearly that he was not Li Yong's son, and the relationship between the two was not that close.
No matter what, he had to capture Li Yong again.
…
Han Qi'an sighed deeply, his face gradually becoming sad.
There are so many things to be happy about these days after entering Hanzhong... They finally have a foothold, and various plans are finally put into motion.
It's like a house. It's windy and rainy outside, but fortunately it's peaceful inside. They are working hard to reinforce it.
But now, the storm outside is getting worse.
I have offended an important minister in the court, I cannot get money and food from the court, and I am afraid of being suspected... There are so many things involved.
Little did he know that there was such a big hidden danger as Li Yong.
"Wu Qian, a foolish and loyal person, has misled me!" Han Qi'an thought about it and couldn't help but cursed.
"Jiang Fan is too slow. He hasn't come back from Chenggu yet?"
Li Xia was impatient, got up and walked out.
Someone came running towards me in a hurry.
"Commander...Commander, Mr. Yang of Xu'an is back. I need to see you urgently!"
~~
A letter was opened by Li Xia...
"His Excellency, Mr. Li Yanshuai, is fine. I'm very lucky. I'm very lucky. With your unparalleled talents, you have established a career and established a business for thousands of miles. You are so strong. How can you be a pearl in secret and serve as a salt truck?"
The Zhao and Song dynasties abandoned the Central Plains, and did not hope for peace for a long time, and no one was timid to fight. If Bianliang was not defended, Jiangdu rushed again, the cowardly leader lost his courage, and the mediocre ministers were unjust. Yue Fei died unjustly, and Meng Gong was devastated.
Yu Jie died of poison. The Great Wall destroyed itself, only hurting the humiliation of the north. Now that the sky pillar is destroyed, there are weeping from the south branch. How sad. If you don't judge, you will kill based on merit, just around the corner...
Ritual and music were destroyed by Qin, and China was destroyed by Jin? No, what Heaven has given is not to the earth, but to people. In the past, the world was our people, and today’s world is also our people! Heaven’s gift
What is given does not depend on the person, but on the Tao. If you can practice the Chinese way, you will be the master of China!
In the past thirty years of the Qin Dynasty, the world was ruled, and it is still called a virtuous king. The Yuan and Wei Dynasties were governed by Han law, and their laws and cultural relics were as brilliant as those of the previous generations. Therefore, if you contribute to the world, you will be very great, and if you are virtuous, you will be rich.
!The way of the Holy King is established by the Lord of Heaven and Earth, with the Tao as the system, and as the inheritance...
Since the Five Dynasties, national calamities have arisen, rituals and music have collapsed, and the people have looked to the Holy Lord to save themselves, just like a child looking to his mother. Fortunately, Heaven has opened a sage, understood the king's way, cultivated the emperor's virtues, responded to Heaven's heart, regarded the world as his ruler, and was magnificent and upright.
Not limited to middle-class people and foreigners, not quite unyielding, caring about the livelihood of the people, not caring about barbarians...
If the king is sincere, he will pardon his crimes and meritorious deeds, and give up the opportunity to appoint him. Zhu Kun was involved in blood on his friends, but the Han Dynasty did not suspect it; Zhang Xiu stabbed his beloved son, and Wei Jun treated him as before. General Kuang did not commit the sins of his predecessors, and he was honored
It is more important than in the current world. When you get lost, you will know how to return. When a country is established and a system is established, the princes will be able to dominate all the roads in the Han Dynasty, just like the enfeoffment of the Han Dynasty and the vassal towns of the Tang Dynasty...
The world will be unified, teachers will be brought to rest and the people will be harmonized, governance will be established, laws will be established, regulations will be laid down, the world will be at peace, and all living beings will be happy. This is what you hope for, and what I hope for. I sincerely hope that good rules will be implemented soon.
, pause and wait!”
…
Yao Shu's letter was very long, and it took Li Xia a long time to read two sticks of incense.
After pondering for a long time, he handed the letter to Han Qian and turned to look at Yang Shi.
"Did the Zhang family agree to my marriage proposal?" Li Xia asked.
Yang Shi cupped his hands and cried: "I am so ashamed of A Lang! Zhang Rou agreed first, received A Lang's engagement letter, gift letter, and a wedding letter, saying that he wanted A Lang to go to the wedding in person... But... But... But
Zhang Rou then said that...Alang needs to raise the flag first."
"Have you given both the engagement letter and the gift letter?"
"yes."
Li Xia nodded.
The employment letter he sent people to throw into Zhang Rou's camp was empty in order to scare Zhang Rou, but what he brought to Yang Shi was a real employment letter.
Li Xia has tried his best and given the most sincerity because he really wants to marry Zhang Wenjing.
I thought Zhang Rou might agree.
Because Zhang Rou had something to do, she might be afraid, or she might think that Kublai Khan would be defeated and needed Li Xia's retreat... But unexpectedly, Kublai Khan forgave Zhang Rou.
More importantly, in comparison, Li Xia is not strong enough.
"Mr. Yang, thank you for your hard work. The journey is difficult. Please go and rest first. We will hold a banquet to thank the matchmaker another day."
"You must never ask Alang to thank you."
"It doesn't matter, the Zhang family agreed after all."
Li Xia got up and sent Yang Shi off in person.
Back in the hall, Han Chengxu was still reading Yao Shu's letter.
Li Xia returned to his seat and sat alone, seemingly forgetting to ask Jiang Fan to track down Li Yong's progress.
After a while, Han Qi'an took his eyes away from the letter and looked at Li Xia blankly.
"The house leaked and it rained all night...all the bad things were crowded together..."
"Mr. Yi Ning thinks that the Song Dynasty can no longer tolerate me?"
"Even if nothing happens, just saying that Alang is young and has done too much credit will lead to Yu Jie's disaster... not to mention offending the three central ministers and the crown prince... plus this matter."
Li Xia pondered and asked: "Now I can't stand on my own... I'm afraid."
Han Qian didn't even think about it, he shook his head and said: "If you want to stand on your own, it is better to surrender to Mongolia. At least you will only be attacked on one side and you can still get support from the Mongolian army."
"Let's not talk about other things. If I surrender with Shu, the Song Dynasty will be destroyed. With this little territory, I will never be able to compete for supremacy. What's more, if I surrender, everyone will be a swordsman and I will be a fish."
"Yao Shu treated Alang with the courtesy of his peers, and his words were sincere and more sincere than the Song Dynasty..."
Li Xia said: "Kublai Khan is more terrifying than Song Ting."
"But the current situation is that Kublai Khan can accommodate Alang, but Song Ting cannot tolerate him."
Han Qian thought for a while and then said: "Alang temporarily surrendered to Mongolia and married a girl from the Zhang family first. If he can win over the Zhang family's troops before the dispute over the throne is settled, will he be able to protect himself?"
"That would be too much to underestimate Kublai Khan."
"But what if it is possible that... God gave Alang a marriage? When Alang is being persecuted by the Song court, there is a way out."
Li Xia shook his head.
Closing his eyes, he seemed to see Zhang Wenjing sitting in front of the wedding bed, slowly putting down the fan in her hand...
Soon, he opened his eyes again, trying to get rid of this thought in his mind before he saw her smart eyes.
"Calm down first. Kublai Khan will give me time to think about it. It's still early before the news reaches Lin'an. There's no need to rush. Let me think about it..."
~~
Lin'an.
Jia Sidao returned to the DPRK from Ezhou just over a month ago.
Because of his great contribution in relieving the siege of Ezhou and clearing Jianghan, the official Zhao Yun personally came out of Lin'an City to greet him, and made him a young master and granted him the title of Duke of Wei.
But Jia Sidao felt that the officials were no longer as close to him as before.
Moreover, Ding Daquan is still stuck in the position of left prime minister...
Jia Sidao knew why this happened because of a letter from Li Xia.
This young man was interesting. He took refuge with him, but in the end he betrayed him and stabbed him secretly.
Jia Sidao did not write to Li Xia, and has not mentioned a word about the matter so far, as if he did not know about it.
It wasn't until July 28th that he got the news he wanted...
"Alang, I found it."
"Oh? Where?"
"Zhenjiang, Ding Qingpi's hometown." Gui Hepu whispered: "The villain has sent people to rob it."
Jia Sidao nodded and asked, "What about the imperial doctor?"
"It's still there." Gui Hepu was confused and said: "This Ding Qingpi is also a weirdo. He didn't kill anyone. Is it because he had a kind heart?"
Jia Sidao looked at a small cricket in his hand and said casually: "Be kind? If you kill the imperial medical officer, you will be suspicious. As for Ji Xixi... hiding it for a year or two will be of great use... What a beauty."
Gui Hepu then laughed. After thinking about it, he felt it was inappropriate and stopped smiling again.
"Alang, aren't the bugs a bit small at the end of July? Alang has never played with such bugs in the past."
Jia Sidao's eyes darkened and he said: "Some bugs haven't grown up yet, but they like to jump out and scream... What should we do?"
"The villain doesn't know."
Jia Sidao then handed over the cricket cage in his hand and said, "Take it to feed the chickens."
Gui Hepu was stunned and said: "Alang never treats Cricket like this..."
"I like crickets, but I can't be bitten by crickets."
Only then did Gui Hepu realize who the bug was, and he quickly turned around and said, "Yes, yes, the villain will feed it to the chickens right now."
"Find another way to contact the people in the Queen's palace, and I have something to say to the Queen."
"yes……"
~~
Zhao Yun has not been interested in state affairs recently.
Last year, a phoenix landed on the Phoenix Mountain in the palace. This was a great auspicious sign, or it meant that he would be able to give birth to a son.
He had great expectations for this and accepted many beauties into the palace until he met Ji Xixi.
Therefore, once he heard that Ji Xixi might be pregnant, Zhao Yun was convinced that a dragon seed would be born.
It happened that those two months were when the war in Ezhou was at its most intense. He failed to stay by Ji Xixi's side properly, and as a result... he was lost.
How could the harem of the mighty Emperor of the Song Dynasty lose a living person? Zhao Yun never believed it.
But that empty palace is right there, you have to believe it if you don’t believe it.
Zhao Yun was astonished and already suspicious of his queen Xie Daoqing and his younger brother Zhao Yurui.
All subsequent evidence points to Xie Daoqing...
Zhao Yun understood rationally that this was unbelievable, but he had never liked Xie Daoqing.
The woman who was born with dark skin and eye disease was considered blessed because her skin fell off and turned white, and her eye disease was cured.
Are you lucky? You can’t even give birth to a son or a half a daughter!
At that time, Zhao Yun only wanted to make Jia his queen, but Empress Dowager Yang had to make Xie Daoqing, who was not beautiful, the queen.
Zhao Yun was the emperor elected from the clan. His biological mother, Quan, could only be granted the title of Mrs. Cixian, so he could only succumb to Empress Dowager Yang, who was not his mother.
With a grudge in his heart, he couldn't help but want to blame everything on Xie Daoqing, wishing he could strangle her neck... "Give me back my woman and child!"
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, Mr. Jia has asked to see you and has something important to report."
A soft call brought Zhao Yun out of his confusion.
He frowned displeased.
There is nothing going on in the world, but these ministers are still making noise all day long.
