The Pearl of the Prosperous Age of Red Mansions

Nothing, I don't know..."

"It doesn't matter if it's shapeless, it's just that you can't wake it up no matter how you wake it up, it's a good thing you slept here all night, and I was squeezed into the tent next to it." Xiao Ze didn't mention the sleeping hole.

Jia Zhu was ashamed, just about to say something, but Xiao Ze continued: "You are still young, drinking too much alcohol will hurt your health, and you can't drink like this next time."

Jia Zhu quickly responded, "Thank you, my lord."

At this time, Jia Zhu was still having a headache because he couldn't remember what he said to General Guo last night, but soon he didn't have the heart to think about it-the emperor adopted Guo Shiyun in the tent of the Chinese army to transfer the grain and grass to prevent the northern border Gou Ji jumped over the wall to sneak attack on the grain and grass, and transferred most of the grain and grass to Xiao Ze.

Chen Fengming's fingers trembled slightly, Xiao Ze glanced at him and sneered in his heart.

On the night when most of the food and grass had just been transferred, Beijiang really secretly attacked.Although the goal has always been to kill the enemy in the battle to gain military merits, but for Jia Zhu, this is the first time that he has fought with the enemy with real swords and guns.

"Be careful, what are you thinking!" Lao Meng rushed over to kick Jia Zhu's northern soldier who was flying towards him, and slapped Jia Zhu on the back.

After reacting, Jia Zhu quickly picked up the long spear, and with a spear flower picked up the enemy who was cut down from the side with a knife, his body reacted before his brain. No no.

The person on the opposite side is his own enemy, and if he fails to kill him with one blow, his soldiers will be injured or even killed.

Soon, the sneak attackers in northern Xinjiang realized that they had fallen into the enemy's trap and began to flee in a hurry. Xiao Ze stopped the red-eyed people with a sentence of "poor bandits don't chase after them". Go and report to Aguda what happened tonight, if all of them are dead, the show will not go on.

In the tent of the Chinese army, the emperor praised Guo Shiyun for his suggestions and Xiao Ze for his contribution in protecting food tonight. Afterwards, Xiao Ze smiled coldly at Chen Fengming, and said dryly to Guo Shiyun: "The last general once heard that General Guo used troops. Such as a god, seeing him today really deserves his reputation, he is really like a god, as if he can pinch and count."

"Chen Shoubei is serious. The army went first before the food and grass. The two armies fought against the imperial court. It is not difficult to guess the intention of Beijiang to cut off my food and grass. It is not hard to think that it can be pinched." Guo Shiyun finished with a smile. , stopped talking to Chen Fengming, turned around and walked to his tent.

From the corner of the eye, he glanced at Jia Zhu who was behind Xiao Ze. This child must have killed someone for the first time today.

Today is indeed the first time Jia Zhu has killed people, and he has killed more than one person. When the war ended, Jia Zhu looked at the blood on his hands, but he no longer had all the conflicts in his heart. Since he chose this path, He has already realized it, but it is always difficult to take the first step, and the road after that is much easier.

This time, the communication with Chen Fengming was cut off for a long time after the defeat of Beijiang's sneak attack on grain and grass, and the imperial army continued to march north after the rest.Just like the success in Bianzhou City, the imperial army successively recovered the other four cities, forcing Northern Xinjiang back to the grassland.

The imperial army was stationed in Qinzhou City at the junction, and the successive victories made the emperor happy. At the celebration banquet that night, all the soldiers were also passionate, and vowed to go all the way to the grassland and wipe out the northern border in one fell swoop.

However, the generals, including the emperor, knew in their hearts that once they entered the grassland, the battle would no longer be so easy.

At the same time, Chen Fengming handed out the second letter, and Xiao Ze, who had been secretly monitoring Chen Fengming without telling the emperor, quietly intercepted the letter this time.

"As expected, do you want to coerce the emperor..." A sneer appeared from the corner of Xiao Ze's mouth.

"Xiao Cheng, inform the spies and send the message that..."

Analyzing the pros and cons to catch the thief and capture the king for a thousand miles of tracking

When the army marched on the grassland, Jia Zhu rode on the horse and looked at the endless distance, and he couldn't help but secretly marvel in his heart. Even though the northern cities had a very different style from Shenjing, Jiangnan and other places, they were nothing compared to the grassland.

After entering the grassland, the army obviously slowed down, and the emperor's attitude became more and more cautious. Even though Xue Chongxiang, who had been stationed in northern Xinjiang for many years, would not be ignorant of the terrain of the grassland, after all, he was no better than someone who was born and raised here. The tribes in northern Xinjiang, the cavalry in northern Xinjiang suffered a big defeat when defending the city, but on this endless prairie, they are like a sharp arrow.

In stark contrast to the solemn and cautious attitude of the whole army, it is probably the loyal and obedient prince Xiao Ze who is finding fault more and more. This prince does not know why General Guo is not pleasing to the eye. It also became more and more tense.

In order to defeat Beijiang, two of the four generals who conquered Beijiang had internal strife. This was a major event that could shake the morale of the army. Therefore, even if the emperor favored this young brother more, he had to punish him with a straight face. He was ordered to introspect in the king's tent and not to leave without purpose.

The prince's mind was not going his way, and the guards who followed him and the little eunuchs serving daily life became punching bags, and they became more and more cautious.

Jia Zhu has been with the lord for so long, and now she really sees this man's moodiness, yesterday she just praised Xiao Shunzi for making tea with a special taste, but today she dropped the teacup and drank it angrily, even if it was fed to a horse, it would be unpalatable; Yesterday, he praised Xiao Lizi for his good finger skills, which made his sore back much lighter. Today, he sent him to the rough envoy for the reason that his clumsy hands hurt him...

The viciousness of this kind is simply too numerous to describe. When these spread to the outside world, it naturally became a passive confrontation of the prince's dissatisfaction with the emperor's handling. The emperor couldn't help getting angry when he hit the emperor's face several times. Someone concluded that this prince might not be far from losing his Sacred Heart.

"My lord, I'm afraid you're doing this..." However, Jia Zhu, who knows what this lord is planning secretly, naturally knows that all of the above are illusions, but...

"Tell me, is there any way to defeat Beijiang?" Xiao Ze interrupted Jia Zhu and asked instead.

"When I read the history, I read a passage about the Han Wu attacking the Huns and dealing with the tribes on the grassland. It is the best policy to break it up into pieces, but now it is the emperor's personal conquest. It is absolutely inappropriate to break up the army into pieces." Dispersed, what about the emperor's safety?Now that Xiao Ze regards Jia Zhu as his confidant, he does not hide all the arrangements from him, so Jia Zhu naturally no longer speaks nonsense in front of Xiao Ze.

"That's right, and even if Northern Xinjiang is defeated in the end, what benefits will it have for the court? Have you ever thought about it?" Xiao Ze nodded and asked again.

"This..." Jia Zhu never thought about this, and after hearing Xiao Ze's words, she couldn't help but fell into deep thought, but the more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt, and she couldn't help frowning deeply.

Seeing Jia Zhu's expression, Xiao Ze nodded secretly in his heart, thinking that he knew from Zhao Ningchuan that this child Yu Wen was quite insightful, and that if he had taken the scientific examination, he would definitely be named on the gold list, but it was even more natural for him to give up writing and follow martial arts. When he wanted to rely on his kindness to serve as a bodyguard instead of taking the imperial examination, he had doubts in his heart.

Everything is low-grade, only high-level reading. Even if you are a military commander, who would not expect one of his children to be an official through the imperial examination, and wash away the name of an ignorant and reckless man? I just want to be Lao Shizi's bodyguard.

It wasn't until he connected Jia Zhu's series of actions from secretly relying on the emperor's uncle to becoming an unswerving royalist faction that Xiao Ze discovered that everything this kid did was to hug the emperor tightly. Brother's thigh - if you get an official in the imperial examination, you have to start from the local area, isn't it just far away from the capital?

So smart, but he is the son of that elm-headed Jia Zheng, Xiao Ze secretly laughed in his heart, it's really a good bamboo shoot, but it's a pity, if he is a dude, he would just keep him by his side for fun, Jia Zhu probably didn't want to be a plaything, this grass by the side of the nest is really hot, so he doesn't care if he doesn't eat it.

Feeling regretful in his heart, Xiao Ze saw that the heat was almost ready, so he took a sip of tea and said, "But you figured it out?"

"Even though the northern border was defeated in the end, the vast grasslands are difficult for our dynasty to use. If the pastoralism is turned into farming, as the Tang Dynasty did in the past, it would lead to the waste of horses. It will be cheaper for Donghu." Jia Zhu took a deep breath and said: "Northern Xinjiang is cunning and aggressive, and has occupied the geographical advantage. I am afraid that even if Beijiang is defeated, the imperial court will suffer a lot, and it will be unable to attack Donghu again. Taking the opportunity to make it bigger, wouldn’t it be making wedding clothes for others?”

Xiao Ze nodded approvingly in his eyes: "That's right, thinking of this, your military books and history books are not in vain. In this way, it's not like you're fighting or not fighting in Northern Xinjiang. It's really impressive. Headache."

"My lord!" Jia Zhu looked at Xiao Ze with piercing eyes, "Since the emperor has decided to send troops, he already has a perfect plan, so why should your lord make alarmist remarks here?"

Xiao Ze laughed: "You boy has been by my side for a long time, and you have grown a lot. The key to the war in the northern border lies in the king of the northern border."

After hearing this, Jia Zhu said in a low voice: "The king of Northern Xinjiang..."

There are many tribes in the northern border, and they have always been in a state of separation. However, after the king of the northern border unified the tribes, he gradually became a confidant of the court. However, the king of the northern border conquered the tribes with force after all. Are these tribes convinced? , It’s really two words.

"Now the news from the spies, the reason why the king of Northern Xinjiang was able to bring all the tribes back this time is because he drew a big cake." Xiao Ze sneered, "I want to emulate Yuanmeng's annexation of the Central Plains back then. What a wishful thinking! Now that Brother Huang has regained the lost land, many tribal leaders have already moved their minds."

Jia Zhu's eyes lit up when she heard the words, and thinking of the secret letter, she couldn't help saying: "So that's the case, the prince wants to treat him in his own way."

"Exactly, he wants to coerce the emperor, huh!" The northern border is unfamiliar with the terrain, and the king of the northern border is cunning. The only strategy is to grab this guy by the tail.

"It's just my lord, how can the emperor's sage not agree with the truth, why should my lord make a dangerous move, my lord is loyal, I'm afraid in the end..." Jia Zhu thought of the one who pretended to be the emperor and looked like a ten percent A counterfeit, I really don't agree with Xiao Ze's idea in my heart, now he can be regarded as a loyal and obedient prince, if the prince is suspected, he will not be well!

"Brother Huang knows about this, otherwise I wouldn't be so stupid to do such a thing." Seeing Jia Zhu's worry, Xiao Ze couldn't help but feel relieved for a while, and looked up at Jia Zhu's puzzled expression after hearing this. Sighed: "Did you forget the allusion of Cao Mengde back then? This counterfeit is fake no matter how it looks, and the people in Beijiang are not fools."

"My lord, absolutely not!" Jia Zhu couldn't help but be shocked when she heard that she understood Xiao Ze's purpose. No wonder she had to hide it from the emperor. .

Xiao Ze smiled: "Your Majesty and the prince, one of them must be true."

No matter how much Jia Zhu tried to persuade him, it was useless. He knew in his heart that what the prince did actually made up for the weakest link in this method.

Three days later, the spies who had been secretly watching Chen Fengming finally got the news that some people from Beijiang had infiltrated into Chen Fengming's personal soldiers.

Xirou is coming.

Five days later, the emperor, who repeatedly ordered the prince to be loyal and obedient, summoned the prince to enter the Chinese army account after receiving ten letters written by the prince himself.

Not long after the prince entered, the emperor waved away all the guards inside. He didn't know what the two brothers were going to talk about, and the guards around him didn't have the courage to peek at the holy will, but there was no way for each of them to speculate on their own. Got it.

At this time, Chen Fengming was sweating profusely and brought two of his own soldiers to the tent of the Chinese army to ask for an interview. Eunuch Chen hesitated a bit. Chen Shoubei was praised by the emperor this time, and he came to the imperial court specially, still looking anxious , I'm afraid it's really a big deal, if it delays him, how can an eunuch afford it, but before the emperor ordered no one to go in and disturb him, if he went in rashly and heard something he shouldn't have heard, I'm afraid his life would be lost.

After weighing in his heart for a moment, Eunuch Chen settled down, coughed outside the tent, and said softly, "Your Majesty."

It took a long while inside before the unrecognizable words of joy and anger came out: "Didn't I say that no one is allowed to disturb?"

"Your Majesty, forgive me. Mr. Chen has urgent matters to ask for an audience, but this slave dare not be self-reliant." Eunuch Chen replied with fear and sincerity.

"come in."

After hearing this, Chen Fengming's eyes secretly flashed with joy, and he stepped into the tent of the Chinese army.

What happened in the camp of the Chinese army, Jia Zhu, who was secretly ambushing outside the place where the imperial army was stationed, had no idea at all, and it was precisely because of this ignorance that he became even more nervous. Even more concentrated, the other party moved!

The cronies who participated in this matter surrounded the entire court station in an airtight manner, hiding one person a few steps away, and each had a signal as evidence to ensure that their whereabouts would not be missed. The fire was also used as a signal. At this time Mixed with the strong flames of the camp, everything seemed so inconspicuous.

Seeing a familiar signal in the northeast direction, everyone who is good at tracking them all poured out their pockets. Jia Zhu felt relieved. It was Xiao Cheng over there, and Jia Zhu naturally knew his kung fu.

Jia Zhu's kung fu has clever characters, and his light kung fu is also excellent, and as soon as the incense on the prince's body touches the kits carried by Jia Zhu and others, it will leave marks on the grass. With these marks, After three days and three nights of tracking, the ten people persisted until the end, and locked on the seemingly inconspicuous house in front of them.

This is Dongguo City, one of the only three cities in the depths of the prairie, and a hub of trade connecting various places. Unexpectedly, the king of Northern Xinjiang also understood the principle of hiding in the city, and chose such a bustling and complicated place.

Not daring to startle the snake rashly, at this time Xiao Cheng and Jia Zhu seemed to be the heads of the ten people, and finally decided to watch over the house and wait for the reinforcements to rescue them.

It's just - the two of them glanced at each other and saw the same worry in each other's eyes. I wonder if the prince will suffer?You know, these people from Northern Xinjiang are not good people. The goal of their business is the emperor, but in the end they took the prince hostage and went away. I think they saw through the false emperor in the tent.

The dumb girl who visits the private house at night to help the reinforcements has reached the death of the King of Xinjiang

Dongguo City has always been a prosperous city of trade, and there are not a few merchants from the Central Plains in the city. However, now that the northern border and the Central Plains are fighting, many merchants have repeatedly chosen not to enter the grassland for the time being, so Dongguo City is also divided at this time. outside depression.

And this also caused Jia Zhu and the others a problem. Nowadays, there are few Han faces in the city, and these unfamiliar faces seem very out of place. In order to avoid arousing the enemy, they can only hide as much as possible near the target house.

After three days of repeated trials, Jia Zhu breathed a sigh of relief. I don't know if it was because the king of Northern Xinjiang was too confident or for other reasons. In short, although the house was heavily guarded, there were no top experts, so the encirclement gradually narrowed. Finally, Jia Zhu and Xiao Cheng decided Sneak into the mansion——In order to ensure that the reinforcements can kill the King of Northern Xinjiang in one blow, they must provide the necessary directions. Of course, it would be best if they could draw a map of this mansion.

The more important point is the safety of the lord. As the people who participated in the plan this time, Jia Zhu and Xiao Cheng knew that even if they could really kill the king of Beijiang this time, if the lord had something wrong, they would Those who died would be chopped down and buried with them.

But at this time, Xiao Ze, who was the center of the vortex, lived a life that he wanted to be nourished. Not only did he not have the slightest skin trauma, but he was also served with delicious food and drink.

After taking a sip of the milk tea, Xiao Ze curled his lips in disgust, looked up at Chen Fengming in the room and said, "You're used to drinking this strange taste, tsk tsk, it's really difficult!"

"My lord, what do you think about what I said just now?" Chen Fengming was impatient with the lord's pick and choose in his heart, but for the sake of a bright future in the future, he still restrained his anger , asked with a smile on his face.

"This king is not interested in being an emperor, what's so good about being an emperor, huh?" Xiao Ze said casually.

Chen Fengming sighed and said: "My lord, don't you have a clear view of the situation now? This time it is clearly the emperor's plan to kill someone with a knife, and the emperor's suspicion of you is already evident."

"This..." Xiao Ze twitched the corner of his mouth, and said hesitantly, "Don't scare me, Brother Huang will never do that."

Seeing that Xiao Ze's expression was relaxed, Chen Fengming hurriedly hit the rails while it was hot: "Your Majesty, the King of Beijiang now sincerely hopes to cooperate with him and support him to ascend the throne of God. Your Majesty is willing to respect you as the Khan of Heaven."

"This..." Xiao Ze looked hesitant, Chen Fengming secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he saw it, and then smiled again: "Your Majesty thinks about it slowly, and I will take my leave first."

Seeing Chen Fengming leave the room, Xiao Ze was lying on the couch, his closed eyes hid a cold light that others couldn't see, and a sneer sneered slightly at the corner of his mouth, wanting to support a puppet emperor to slowly erode the Central Plains?It is said that people in Beijiang are reckless and straightforward. I don't know if this cunning strategy was thought up by the king of Beijiang himself, or it was suggested by that dog thief Chen Fengming. It is a fool's dream to want to instigate him!

But—since this group of people from Northern Xinjiang harbored such evil intentions, wouldn't it be a waste if he didn't take advantage of this great situation to get better treatment for himself?

Therefore, Xiao Ze fully multiplied all his previous tossing.

Xiao Ze's tossing joy, Jia Zhu and Xiao Cheng are careful every step of the way, extremely vigilant, the moonlight is covered by thick dark clouds tonight, it is the best cover, the two dressed in black carefully avoid wave after wave Bo's bodyguard sneaked into the house.

With a "snap", and with the sound of the whip slapping the flesh, a thin figure suddenly fell to the ground, made a "woo-woo" sound, and couldn't stop trembling.

Jia Zhu and Xiao Ze hid behind the rockery and peeked out. They saw a girl in red waving a whip with a fierce expression on her face. The person curled up on the ground was pitiful and thin. It also looks like a girl.

The person next to him, Ula Ula, said a lot, and Jia Zhu listened with all his ears. Now his Beijiang language is not very fluent, but there is no obstacle to listening. He just heard the girl in red saying: "This little dumb is yelling again and again. It doesn’t even hurt, it’s so boring to fight. Damn it, I don’t know when Father Khan will let me go back to the king’s tent, what kind of prince is that, he looks good, but his temper is really bad!”

The person who looked like a maid next to her covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Princess, your face is blushing!"

The girl in red stomped her feet, then whipped the thin girl on the ground, turned around and left, and the maids followed. After a long time, the girl on the ground struggled to stand up and moved slowly. Only then did Jia Zhu notice that she His feet are also sloped.

The girl was moving in the direction of the rockery, but in the dark night, Jia Zhu saw the face of this thin girl, with a pair of eyes showing incomparable strength.

Glancing at Xiao Cheng, he found that he was also staring at the girl, Jia Zhu touched him lightly, the two looked at each other, and made a risky decision, after all, the girl looked like a Han Chinese.

"do not move."

Her mouth was covered suddenly, and the girl's body froze. However, after hearing the familiar Chinese, the girl's face revealed a look of surprise.

It seemed that they had made the right bet. Jia Zhu and Xiao Cheng felt relieved, but they did not dare to let go. Although they just heard that the princess said that she was dumb, the dumb just couldn’t speak. Woohoo, they can't take a chance.

"The prince that the princess talked about just now, do you know where he is locked up?" Jia Zhu asked in a low voice.

The girl nodded, gesticulating something with her hands, but Jia Zhu and Xiao Cheng couldn't understand what she meant, the girl stretched out her hand to hold Jia Zhu's hand, and wrote on his palm with her fingers.

"Are you the northern army sent by the imperial court?"

She was able to read, which surprised Jia Zhu and Xiao Cheng a lot. Jia Zhu nodded, and the girl's eyes turned red all of a sudden, and she almost shed tears.Busy wrote in Jia Zhu's palm again: "I can draw a map for you here, save me!"

Jia Zhu and Xiao Cheng's heart was shocked, this is considered to be nowhere to be found, is it easy to get here?

Under the guidance of the girl, they sneaked into an empty room. Jia Zhu took off the white clothes in the black robe to make paper for the girl, and found charcoal to make a pen. Xiao Cheng watched the wind at the door. In half an hour, the entire map was drawn. Jia Zhu put on his clothes carefully, and then said to the girl, "Be patient, we can't take you away now."

The girl nodded slowly, and wrote on Jia Zhu's palm again: "Save me, definitely save me, and I will definitely repay you."

Jia Zhu nodded: "If a gentleman says a word, four horses are hard to chase, so don't worry, girl."

After getting the map, Jia Zhu and Xiao Cheng were half relieved. The next step was to verify the authenticity of the map. The two of them sneaked out of the house, found a pen and paper to trace a copy of the gourd painting, and then firmly memorized it. In his mind, they split up, Xiao Cheng went to stare at the room of the king of Northern Xinjiang, while Jia Zhu went to investigate the room where the prince was under house arrest, and finally confirmed that the map was indeed true.

"How is the prince?" Xiao Cheng hurriedly asked after meeting Jia Zhu. Seeing Jia Zhu's strange expression, beads of sweat appeared on Xiao Cheng's forehead.

"My lord is very well." Jia Zhu burst out these words with a bit of gnashing of teeth and helplessness.

Xiao Cheng was taken aback: "How?"

... After Jia Zhu told Xiao Cheng what she had seen and heard all day, Xiao Cheng didn't know what expression to put on. The prince is really...

But this is also good news, if the prince scratches his skin a little bit, they will not be able to live well!

After the locations and the map were settled, Jia Zhu and Xiao Cheng just stared at those two places, secretly worried why the reinforcements hadn't arrived yet. On the third day, the people in charge of the codes came to meet, and the reinforcements from the imperial court finally arrived.

This time, all the assassins were masters, and the leader was General Guo Shiyun, whom Jia Zhu was very familiar with.

Night is always the best time to assassinate. Jia Zhu never forgot his promise. After talking to Guo Shiyun about the girl, Guo Shiyun also agreed to his intention to save people.

In the early morning of the next day, when the maid who was washing the King of Beijiang screamed when he saw the headless body of the King of Beijiang lying in a pool of blood, Jia Zhu and his party had already left Dongguo City overnight, and were flying at full speed in the direction of the imperial army's garrison. And then, the empty wooden box that Guo Shiyun brought was already filled with the head of the King of Northern Xinjiang who died in peace.

The manpower along the road was ready. After the tired horses fell to the ground after screaming, they put on new horses and rushed on the road non-stop all night. Finally, on the sixth day, the station of the army was finally in sight.The tight strings in everyone's hearts finally loosened.

"Brother Huang." Even though Xiao Zetian was fearless, seeing the emperor's somber expression, he couldn't help touching his nose with a sneer.

"Come with me!" The emperor restrained his trembling right hand, and entered the tent of the Chinese army with Xiao Ze. Everyone sensibly did not follow. Guo Shiyun ordered everyone to go down to rest first, and Jia Zhu was right to bring them back. Du Yu—on the way back, Jia Zhu had already asked the mute girl’s name—but she was worried, she was a girl after all, it was obviously inappropriate to bring her back to the guard camp, but if she was placed elsewhere, He is not at ease.

"I'll take Miss Du to see a military doctor first." Xiao Cheng, on the other hand, was full of energy, as if he didn't need to rest, and took the initiative to take care of Jia Zhu's troubles.

"Military doctor?" Jia Zhu was taken aback.

"Well, I asked Ms. Du, her defects are not born." Xiao Cheng said.

Jia Zhu stared at Xiao Cheng for a while. Du Yu knew how to ride a horse, but it was difficult for him to support such a long journey, so Xiao Cheng took the initiative to ask Ying to take care of Du Yu. Unexpectedly, the itinerary was so tight. There is still time to ask if he is born dumb and sloppy, and is he not tired?

Shaking his head, since Xiao Cheng took care of Du Yu anyway, he was relieved a lot. The first time he saw this girl, he had the urge to leave her behind.

It was already the second day after he woke up, so it was fine if he didn't rest, but after resting, Jia Zhu found that the bones in his body seemed to be falling apart. Seeing that he was awake, the guards came over and asked questions.

Before Jia Zhu could speak, Wu Lian was coming in from the outside. Seeing that Jia Zhu had woken up, he spread the word with a smile on his face.

Judging from the results, it was worthwhile to take the risk this time. Assassinating the Queen of Northern Xinjiang, several powerful tribes in Northern Xinjiang were fighting for the position of leader, and civil strife had begun, and the already weak small tribes had already surrendered to the court.

After the initial anger, the emperor was very satisfied with the result. After teaching Xiao Ze a lesson, he also began to reward the heroes this time. Guo Shiyun made great contributions to Jia Zhu and Xiao Cheng in the list. The map It was the guarantee that the assassination went so smoothly, and Du Yu, who drew the map, was also summoned by the emperor.

In the Chinese military tent, the emperor sat at the top, followed by Xiao Ze, Guo Shiyun and several other generals. After Jia Zhu, Xiao Cheng and Du Yu entered the Chinese military tent and saluted in turn, everyone's eyes fell on this On Du Yu, who made a great contribution once.

Although Du Yu is still thin and thin at this time, he is wearing new clothes. His unremarkable appearance has an indelible temperament. The etiquette taught, everyone has this feeling in their hearts after seeing her behavior.

"She..." General Xue Chongxiang in the tent couldn't help exclaiming after examining Du Yu's appearance.

"The Xue Qing family knows this girl?" Everyone's eyes turned to Xue Chongxiang at this time, and the emperor also asked with interest, but Du Yu's eyes also turned red after seeing Xue Chongxiang, and fell down. tears.

Loyalty's orphan Du's family has female family status, high and low guards are melancholy

After Xue Chongxiang received the emperor's hint, he asked Du Yu: "Your name is Du Yu, but you are Zhong Ling Yuxiu's Yu?"

Du Yu nodded, tears streaming down like broken beads.

Xue Chongxiang's voice also trembled: "Your father, is Qinzhou City Guard Du Zheng?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. Du Zheng had guarded Qinzhou City for many years and had resisted the harassment of Beijiang many times. Xiancheng surrendered to Northern Xinjiang, and the emperor gritted his teeth when he mentioned this before.

Later, there were rumors that Du Zheng was treated with courtesy in Northern Xinjiang. No one expected that Du Zheng's daughter would appear at this moment in such a way, and seeing how Du Yu was treated in Northern Xinjiang...

After Du Yu nodded, he bit his finger and wrote a big word "injustice" on the ground. The matter of Du Shoujiang is quite strange, maybe there is a grievance inside, the last general has known Du Shoujiang for many years, he is definitely not someone who would sacrifice the city to the enemy in order to get rich."

The emperor nodded: "There is no evidence for what you say, does Xue Qing have evidence?"

Xue Chongxiang had a troubled expression on his face. He could guarantee it with his wealth and life, but when it came to evidence, he did not have the slightest proof, so his face darkened and he said: "The general should be ashamed."

The emperor looked at Du Yu, saw her sad face, and asked, "Miss Du, do you have evidence to prove your father's integrity?"

Du Yu nodded, gestured for a while, and pretended to be writing. The emperor waited on him with a servant's pen and ink. Du Yu knelt on the ground and wrote the statement word by word.

The eyes of everyone looking at Du Yu changed at this time. Du Zheng's collusion with the enemy, treason and surrender of the city was already a fact. The emperor once personally commented on Du Zheng as "a thief is hateful". Such a change, but, if there is really a grievance in it, wouldn't it be a blow to the face of the emperor?

Everyone guessed in their hearts, Jia Zhu's face had been very complicated since just now, and now he showed a bit of sadness. As early as when the news of the loss of the five cities came during the northern expedition of the army, the news of Du Zheng's treason had already spread. And this Du Zheng is not someone else, but the man married by the third aunt Jia Tian!

Du Yu, who had broken his leg and lost his voice, would be his cousin if nothing unexpected happened.

In his previous life, he had never heard of the third aunt, and the family members kept it secret at that time. He never expected that there would be such a relationship. If he hadn't joined the army in this life, if it hadn't been a coincidence that he met Du Yu in the plan to assassinate the king of Northern Xinjiang. Acquaintance... Jia Zhu took a deep breath, but fortunately everything was in time.

At this time, the tent of the Chinese army was very quiet, and everyone was staring at Du Yu who was writing. Jia Zhu also endured the question marks in his heart. Although he and Xiao Cheng were standing beside Du Yu, what Du Yu wrote was for For the emperor, no matter how curious the two of them were, they didn't dare to take a peek, wishing they could pin their eyes to the ground.

Not long after Du Yu finished writing, the servant presented it to the emperor, and the emperor turned pale after reading it: "It's Chen Fengming, the traitor again!"

At this time, everyone knew that, contrary to the rumored surrender of Du Zheng's offering to the city, Du Zheng desperately resisted and asked the court for reinforcements. Unexpectedly, the reinforcements that greeted the city were the enemy troops who urged their lives. In the end, Du Zheng died in battle in Qinzhou City. Beijiang hated Du Zheng deeply, and bloodbathed the Du family after entering the city.

Everyone's faces were full of anger and sighs. They didn't expect that there would be such twists and turns, and they didn't expect that Du Zheng's daughter could escape the catastrophe. Even this time, by chance, she helped the court a lot and was picked up by Jia Zhu. Wait for someone to bring it back.

Du Yu was also crying bitterly at this time, the emperor sighed, thinking of the tragedy of the Du family, Du Yu, as the only member of the Du family, was also disabled, his expression was even more moving.

Xiao Ze said at this time: "My brother has sent the military doctor to give Miss Du a diagnosis and treatment. Miss Du's foot injury has been delayed for too long, and it may be difficult to recover, but the throat injury can be cured. Physician Zhang is quite good at this injury, and it is very symptomatic, please rest assured, Your Majesty."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Ze's eyes fell on Jia Zhu again, then he looked at Du Yu and asked, "So your mother is the Jia family?"

Du Yu nodded, Jia Zhu's nose was sour, and his eye sockets were moist too. Now he was sure that Du Yu was indeed his third aunt's daughter, his cousin.

Mrs. Jia is Jia Zhu's aunt. Now that Mrs. Jia has passed away, according to the funeral system, Jia Zhu has to mourn for nine months. Because Du Zheng was branded as collaborating with the enemy and traitorously, Jia Zhu is naturally impossible for Jia Zhu, who is Mrs. Du Zheng. The family obeys filial piety, and now the filial piety period has passed. Although Jia Zhu mentioned the filial piety period, the emperor rejected the request, so he had no choice but to let it go.

At this time, the letter written by Du Yu sent by Chen Fengming to his father is now hidden in a place in Qinzhou City. This is the only evidence that can prove Du Zheng's innocence. The emperor naturally ordered the guards to escort Du Yu back to Qinzhou City to find out.

As Du Yu's cousin, Jia Zhu had to avoid suspicion this time. The emperor's personal guards should not leave without permission. This time the guards leading the team were Xiao Cheng, Xiao Ze's number one confidant who had just made a contribution and was more familiar with Du Yu.

The guards took Du Yu away, and Jia Zhu's mood became gloomy after a slight improvement at the beginning. Even if it was finally confirmed that the third aunt and uncle were all loyal, what about Cousin Du Yu?His throat can be healed, but his foot is disabled after all, and he has been a slave in northern Xinjiang for so long. Even if his innocence is still there, he can't even think about promising a good family.

If someone with ulterior motives seeks to marry Cousin Du Yu for the sake of fame and fortune, and marrying such a family, with this cousin's temper, how can she be happy?

Although I met this cousin not long ago, just because I was able to escape for a lifetime when the Du family was full of mourners, I was able to bear the humiliation and bear the burden of the king of Beijiang.
