Xianggong is a big man in men's clothing

After the Double Ninth Festival, Emperor Qi Guang, the new ruler of the Great Qi Kingdom, finally tore off his gentle face and decided to take the lead in sending troops to the Xinrijiao.

He sent General Han Feiyu, who had defeated the Xinrijiao soldiers and horses, to lead one hundred thousand soldiers and horses to crusade against Xinrijiao.

With new hatred and old hatred, Tan Haoran will not shrink back. He personally led the troops, and started this massive battle at the border between Shannan Road and Guannei Road.

The soldiers and horses of the imperial court are strong and strong, even though the political situation is in decline, the soldiers and horses have always maintained a strong level.

Under the leadership of Tan Haoran, the Xinrijiao has been carefully managed and has been lurking for many years. In addition, he is good at business and financial management, which solved the logistics worries of the Xinrijiao. , can also fight a war of attrition with the imperial court.

Qi Zhongyu cared about Tan Haoran very much, so he had been sending people to secretly inquire about information. Once Tan Haoran was in danger, she would definitely go to rescue him.

Fortunately, Tan Haoran, as the leader of Xinrijiao, is the soul of Xinrijiao, so he never took the lead and stayed in the safe rear, so fortunately he was safe and sound.

On the other hand, Xie Xinghe, the guardian of the left, really made a splash, he was brave and good at fighting on the battlefield, and even Huainan Road could hear his many victories.

This campaign, which lasted for two months, has attracted much attention.

After the winter solstice, and seeing that the new year will be another month away, Emperor Qi Guang seemed to lose patience with the endless stalemate, and dispatched [-] troops from other places to General Han Feiyu, ordering him to defeat the Xinri sect as soon as possible. , and escorted the culprit Tan Haoran to Beijing to be executed.

The [-] soldiers and horses should not be underestimated. They instantly turned the tide of the battle. The Xinrijiao fought and retreated. Within a month, they were completely at a disadvantage.

Under the cover of the congregation, Tan Haoran had to leave Shannan Road and go to Lingnan Road, leaving Xie Xinghe still confronting Han Feiyu.

Because of this matter, Qi Zhongyu lived in fear for the whole year.

Contrary to her, the people in Siyuan County and the villages under its jurisdiction, because of the good weather before, had a good harvest of grains and had a good year with enough food and clothing.

Seeing this, Qi Changle suggested to Qi Zhongyu that the new year's fair and dinner could be held again.

Qi Zhongyu thought about it, and felt that this year's achievements were remarkable, and it was indeed worth celebrating, so he nodded and agreed, and asked Qi Anye and the second master to do it in person, so that this night market must be held lively.

After the New Year's Eve dinner, she took Lu Dongfu to the night market to relax.

The bustling scene on the street, both familiar and unfamiliar, reminded Qi Zhongyu unconsciously of the Mid-Autumn Festival night a few years ago.

She smiled and suggested, "Lady, let me buy you a lantern."

Lu Dongfu saw that she was finally interested, and raised her eyebrows and said, "Okay."

The two went deep into the night market, Qi Zhongyu personally chose a lantern with a rabbit painted on it, and asked, "My lady, how about this one?"

Lu Dongfu took a serious look, took it with a smile, and said, "I like it very much."

Under the dim light, Lu Dongfu's originally delicate facial features became more and more hazy and beautiful, which made Qi Zhongyu slightly fascinated.

She has been busy with other affairs these days, and rarely has time to get together with Lu Dongfu, and she didn't notice that the immature traces of her cheeks gradually faded, and now she has the charm of a mature woman.

After all, she was the one who snubbed Lu Dongfu.

But Lu Dongfu never complained to her, just like before, she never raised objections when she proposed to conquer various places, and has always silently supported her decision.

Feeling warm in her heart and feeling guilty, she led Lu Dongfu to the river where there were few pedestrians, and after listening to the sound of the rolling water, she opened her mouth and said, "My lady, I'm sorry."

Lu Dongfu was startled when he heard the words, and asked, "Sir, why did you say sorry?"

Qi Zhongyu pursed his lips before saying, "I neglected you because of other trivial matters before, I'm sorry."

Lu Dongfu smiled, lowered her eyes and said, "I know what Xianggong is doing is a big deal, and Xianggong's original intention is to

I am very moved to protect my family, and I understand the hard work of my husband. "

"Speaking of which, I should be grateful to Mr. Xianggong. It was you who stood up and saved the innocent villagers in Yuehe Village. Over the past year, you have also made the people of Siyuan County live better. Even if I have little knowledge, I know what Mr. Xianggong did. It's a good thing. I... I admire you very much, and I will always support you. But, you should pay attention to your health and don't work too hard. When I see that I am tired, I can't help but resent that I am useless and can't help you. "

As she spoke, her eyes turned red.

Qi Zhongyu was shocked, Lu Dongfu is really a good girl, she will not lose her temper because of being left out, and she will understand her hard work...

Qi Zhongyu couldn't help stretching out his hand to hug her tightly, and said: "My lady, thanks to you being by my side all the time. In fact, I was forced to do these things, but since I have made up my mind, I will go forward. I wish you Guaranteed, I will complete this arduous task as soon as possible. At that time, I will belong to you completely. I will give you a peaceful and prosperous world. At that time, we will go to visit famous mountains and rivers together, go to the western regions to see snow lotus in Tianshan Mountain, and go to the northwest to see lonely smoke in the desert ,go……"

"I'll take you to see the best scenery in the world, can you wait for me?"

Lu Dongfu shed tears, nodded, and said with a smile, "I'm looking forward to it, Mr. Xiang, I believe you can do it."

Qi Zhongyu lowered his head and kissed her lips, promising: "I promise!"

She raised her hand to wipe away the tears on Lu Dongfu's cheeks, and said: "During the fifteen days of Chinese New Year, I will not worry about those trivial matters, and I will concentrate on being with you, lady, do you have anything you want? I will do my best Get it for you."

Lu Dongfu groaned, and said shyly, "Master, I want to go back to Yuenan Mountain with you to live for a few days, and then go to the deep mountains to see the blooming red plums."

Qi Zhongyu responded with a smile, packed his bags the next day, told his second uncle, and took Lu Dongfu back to Yuenan Mountain.

The courtyard on the mountain has not been lived in for a long time, and a thick layer of dust has fallen on it. It took Qi Zhongyu and Lu Dongfu a day to clean up the courtyard.

Qi Zhongyu thought for a while, went to the cave in the back mountain, took out the box, brought back several sets of women's clothing, and showed them to Lu Dongfu that night.

As expected, Lu Dongfu liked it very much, with a surprised smile on his face.

Seeing her happy, Qi Zhongyu began to regret for a moment, why did he want to take care of the mess of the Daqi Kingdom, took his wife and everyone in the Qi family, and hid in the mountains, and now his life is so carefree.

But such a thought flashed by, and soon she gave up, and there was no turning back. What's more, what she has to bear now is not only Lu Dongfu and the Qi family, but also tens of thousands of people in Siyuan County , she couldn't easily abandon them.

He can only develop his power as soon as possible as promised to Lu Dongfu, so that the world can restore peace as soon as possible.

They lived happily in the mountains for a month, and it wasn't until Qi Changle sent someone to find her back that she knew that she couldn't drag on any longer.

Fortunately, these days, she celebrated Lu Dongfu's birthday and coaxed Lu Dongfu to be happy, so she felt that she had no regrets.

After taking care of the yard, she held Lu Dongfu's hand, took a last look at the yard, and said to Lu Dongfu with a smile, "I'll take you home for a while next year."

Lu Dongfu nodded with a smile, snuggled into her arms, and was carried down the mountain by Qi Zhongyu.

She knew that Xianggong would be busy in the future, and she was really grateful. Under such circumstances, Qi Zhongyu could still spare time to accompany her. With a period of happy memories, she could survive the long and deserted future years.

Sure enough, not long after Qi Zhongyu took her back to Siyuan County, he called his confidants and Lu Yanqing to discuss the next development plan.

Both Gao Yu and Lu Yanqing suggested that it was time to attack Haozhou City, and each proposed a detailed strategy.

Before Qi Zhongyu could make a choice, Gao Yu felt that Lu Yanqing's strategy was superior. To be honest, Gao Yu didn't take this young master seriously at first, and it was only this time that he really saw the other party.

Ability.

Such a series of tricks is hard to guard against, and fortunately Lu Yanqing is on their side, otherwise, no matter how powerful Qi Zhongyu is alone, if he wants to attack Haozhou City where Lu Yanqing is located, he will need to spend a lot of manpower, material and financial resources.So Gao Yu was not stingy with words, and praised Lu Yanqing's ability, which made Qi Zhongyu amazed.

She herself is not very good at fighting, but she can see that Lu Yanqing has real talents and learning, so on the day of the leader's departure, besides Gao Yu, she also took Lu Yanqing with her.

After a year of training, the soldiers and horses in Siyuan County were strong and strong. In addition, Qi Zhongyu took the lead and was not afraid of death, so the whole army was like a sharp knife, killing the forces of Haozhou City by surprise.

It took only one month for Qi Zhongyu and others to completely capture Haozhou City.

There are also five counties under the jurisdiction of Haozhou City, namely Siyuan County, Wuyi County, Lin'an County, Quchi County, and Shanshui County.

Now that Siyuan County and Quchi County are under their jurisdiction, Qi Zhongyu will continue to attack Wuyi County and Lin'an County after a short rest.

As for Shanshui County, which is farthest away, the magistrate of Shanshui County and the magistrate of Quchi County, that is, Lu Yanqing's father, are old friends. Take the initiative to surrender and join the rebel army.

So, roughly calculated, it only took two months for Qi Zhongyu and others to completely occupy the forces in Haozhou City, becoming an emerging force that should not be underestimated in the entire Huainan Road.

When the state capital near Haozhou City was worried that Qi Zhongyu would continue to attack the city, Qi Zhongyu suddenly beat the drums to withdraw his troops and led a group of cronies to move to Haozhou City. Just like occupying Siyuan County before, he began to develop economy and agriculture.

Now coincides with the Ching Ming season, when Huainan Road began to sow seeds, she ordered the soldiers whose hands were stained with blood to take off their armor and go to the fields to farm, which greatly puzzled other forces who learned about it.

But for the original soldiers and horses in Siyuan County, they have become accustomed to it.

They would not refuse to cultivate, because to be honest, they were originally villagers who fled from various places, and were selected by Qi Zhongyu to join her army because of their strong bodies.

They are all good at farming, and they are deeply aware of the importance of food and grass. They don't need Qi Zhongyu to say more, they can cultivate diligently and conscientiously, because these are the food that they will eat with their families in the future, so they can't be careless. .

This kind of development model was promoted by Qi Zhongyu to the various counties under the jurisdiction of Haozhou City. Needless to say, Quchi County and Shanshui County all surrendered on their own initiative and would definitely obey orders honestly.

As for Wuyi County and Lin'an County, which were attacked by force, most of them were scared out of their wits by Qi Zhongyu.

Before, I thought that the rumors of "evil star" circulating recently were exaggerated and unreliable, but when I actually ran into Qi Zhongyu, I realized that the rumors were not comprehensive.

Qi Zhongyu can not only crush people's heads, but also lead people and horses with bare hands, and cut corpses apart. The most frightening thing is that she has an erratic figure and excellent lightness skills. People can lose their heads before they can touch a piece of her clothes.

It's as terrifying as ghosts and gods!People dare not give birth to a rebellious heart.

Seeing this, Lu Yanqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he knew very well that Qi Zhongyu did this on purpose, she could kill people with elegant means, but she didn't, she always chose the bloodiest way to stimulate people's eyes and heart.

She doesn't care about her reputation at all, she just wants to save worry and trouble.

That's fine, the evil star may be able to fight everywhere, but he can't win people's hearts. Seeing how the people of Haozhou City are afraid of her, we can get a glimpse of it.

Moreover, Qi Zhongyu is not good at political affairs, and the territory that has been conquered has to be handed over to people with lofty ideals, such as him to take care of it.

Lu Yanqing was happy to see it come to fruition, and Qi Zhongyu was well aware of his plan.

Even if she didn't understand at first, Qi Changle was still standing behind her. Although the opponent was not good at fighting, he was well-informed, so I reminded my nephew to beware of this person.

Qi Zhongyu didn't like him in the first place, and she was 12 vigilant. Now it's nothing more than the same goal. If they part ways in the future, she will

He will not be plotted to unload the donkey and kill the mill.

What's more, she has a more suitable candidate, that is Tan Haoran.

I haven't seen him for a few years, and I don't know how he is doing in Lingnan Road now.

Today's Xinrijiao is still fighting against the imperial army, and thanks to Xinrijiao, it has held back the imperial army, and other forces have been able to take the opportunity to develop and grow.

However, at the end of this year, Tan Haoran's forces were finally encircled and suppressed by the imperial court, and they became more and more decadent, lingering on their last legs.

The imperial court was overjoyed, and Emperor Qi Guang immediately ordered to send some troops to Huainan Road to recover Yangzhou.

Because Yangzhou City used to be his territory, he stayed in Yangzhou for decades, and he thought that Yangzhou City was under the watchful eye. He didn't expect that so many uprising forces would suddenly appear after only a few months in the capital. hit him in the face.

Because he had to deal with the New Sun Sect before, he resisted these forces and broke ground on Taisui.

Now that the Xinrijiao has been scaled down, the first thing he wants to target is naturally the rising forces in Yangzhou.

As a result, Shi Liqun and several other rebels suffered disaster.

If Jiang Xingwu hadn't risked his life to rescue him, he, his son, and his younger brother would have long been reduced to ghosts under the imperial court's iron heel.

Ever since King Kang went to the capital, he became more and more arrogant, and was honored as Mr. Shi by everyone. After such a big stumble this time, his mind began to shake.

Especially after losing so many troops, and being scorned by his nephew and son, he mistakenly thought that Jiang Xingwu was in collusion with Qi Zhongyu, so he delayed sending troops, and made him suffer such a big defeat. He found an outlet to vent his anger and died immediately. Jiang Xingwu was imprisoned.

Jiang Xingwu felt baffled, but he didn't know that his performance under Shi Liqun was too outstanding, which had overwhelmed Shi Liqun's own reputation. He was small-minded, jealous of talents, and was originally dissatisfied with Jiang Xingwu.

And Shi Liqun's nephew and son were also like Shi Liqun. They felt that Shi Liqun had been too indulgent with Jiang Xingwu before, and half of the military power was given to Jiang Xingwu, an outsider.

This time, if it weren't for Shi Liqun's nephew and son who delayed the battle due to selfishness, Shi Liqun would not have ended up in the current situation.

They were afraid of being overturned by Shi Liqun, so they pushed Jiang Xingwu as a scapegoat.

However, Shi Liqun still believed it, and used the excuse of being unfavorable to do things to punish Jiang Xingwu with a staff of one hundred.

The executioner was bribed by Shi Liqun's son, and he beat him ruthlessly. Jiang Xingwu was beaten dozens of times before he realized with a cold heart: Shi Liqun, my big brother who is loyal to Jinlan, really wanted him life.

He didn't understand why it happened like this.

If Mrs. Shi hadn't asked Mrs. Shi Liqun, and Mrs. Shi Liqun had asked Shi Liqun to intercede, Jiang Xingwu would have been beaten to death by the executioner.

Shi Liqun calmed down and realized that what he did was wrong. It wasn't because of his conscience that he realized that he had misunderstood Jiang Xingwu, but that Jiang Xingwu was now in a high position under his hands, so beating him to death rashly would make other people under him feel cold. Heart.

So, he ordered the executioner to put Jiang Xingwu in the dungeon and deal with it later.

Poor Jiang Xingwu was seriously injured in the previous battle, and before he could recover, he was beaten half to death by Shi Liqun, and he was dying. In the dungeon, Jiang Xingwu died of his injuries that night.

Jiang Xingwu closed his eyes, and heard Gao Cheng ask: "Master Jiang Wu, what should we do next?"

Jiang Xingwu gritted his teeth, and said weakly: "Go and pick up my wife and children first, and then take me to Haozhou City to find my seventh brother."

This Yangzhou City absolutely cannot stay any longer. When he was working under Shi Liqun, he offended many people. Now he can't trust anyone but Qi Zhongyu.

Gao Cheng couldn't help it, he coughed twice to hide the smile in his voice, and said, "Come on, I'll escort Jiang Wuye to Haozhou City right now, as for Madam and Young Master, I've already arranged for my men to pick them up."

He loaded Jiang Xingwu into the carriage, undressed him and applied medicine,

These medicines were sent by people sent by Qi Zhongyu. The medicine that Gao had used when he was injured before had an extremely significant effect, which can be called immediate.

Now after applying it to Jiang Xingwu, the blood really stopped flowing. After he bandaged the wound, he fed Jiang Xingwu life-saving pills, and then he drove the carriage. Leaving Yangzhou City.

His subordinates were faster than him, and they were already waiting outside the city. Gao Cheng personally checked Shi Shi and the boy who had been knocked out, and said: "Finally, I've made it through. I don't want to stay in this poor place any longer." .Brothers, let’s go back to Haozhou City and ask Mr. Qi for a reward!”

Everyone responded happily, if not for their loyalty to Qi Zhongyu, they would have been unable to bear Shi Liqun's cold shoulder.

Now that the task was finally successfully completed, they immediately urged the carriage, and within a few days, they got rid of the pursuers and arrived in Haozhou City.

Also because of running around for days, Jiang Xingwu's injury became more and more serious.

After Qi Zhongyu heard the news, when he eagerly opened the curtain of the car, he almost couldn't recognize the person in front of him, it was Jiang Xingwu who had a bright smile back then.

She clenched her fists, scolded Shi Liqun half to death in her heart, and immediately ordered her servants to send Jiang Xingwu to the first-class guest room.

She first arranged for someone to rub the medicine on his body, and then personally diagnosed his pulse and prescribed a prescription. She took care of him carefully for more than a month. It was not until New Year's Eve that Jiang Xingwu regained his energy and was able to walk on the ground.

Betrayed by Shi Liqun this time, coupled with being ill in bed for many days, changed Jiang Xingwu a lot.

Not only did his cheeks become thinner, but even his eyes became darker, but Shi Shi still whispered in his ear that Shi Liqun didn't do it on purpose, but was deceived by a traitor, so he treated him like this.

Jiang Xingwu listened with a cold face, and gradually became cold towards his wife.

It's nothing that can be forgiven calmly by relying on "not intentionally". Thanks to Shi Liqun, I taught him an unforgettable lesson.

He has decided not to depend on anyone anymore, but to develop and grow on his own.

While he was thinking about the future in his mind, Qi Zhongyu walked into the room with a tray, and seeing him standing in front of the open window, with the cold winter wind blowing on him, she hurriedly said, "Fifth brother, why are you up and still standing there?" In front of the window, do you want to get sick again and stay lazy in bed for a month?"

Jiang Xingwu was taken aback when he heard the words, and was dragged by her to the table and sat down. Watching her close the window, a warm current surged through his originally cold heart.

He lowered his eyes and said: "I haven't said thank you to my seventh brother yet, if you hadn't sent Gao Cheng to me in advance, this time I might..."

Qi Zhongyu sighed, and said: "Fifth Brother, you are being polite. If I had forced you to stay in Siyuan County back then, there would be no disaster today. It is still my fault, so we are even. Don't say thank you again." No thanks, my wife specially stewed medicinal food, try it to see if it suits your taste."

When Jiang Xingwu was in Siyuan County, he often ate at Qi Zhongyu's place, and he knew the craftsmanship of Mrs. Qi Zhongyu the most.

As soon as he opened the lid, he could already smell a strong fragrance mixed with a faint medicinal fragrance, which made his index finger twitch.

He said: "Seventh brother, have you eaten it? How about eating it with me?"

Qi Zhongyu nodded and said: "I specially asked my wife to bring it in a soup cup, just to have a meal with Brother Wu."

Jiang Xingwu smiled, scooped up a bowl of soup for her and handed it over. Qi Zhongyu took a sip and said, "It's delicious. My wife's cooking skills are indeed the best in the world."

Jiang Xingwu shook his head amusedly, the taste is indeed delicious, but the best in the world is too much.

But beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and he can understand it, thinking that he...

He thought of Shi Shi, and the pillow breeze that Shi Shi had been blowing in his ears recently, his face became gloomy again, and he drank the soup expressionlessly.

Qi Zhongyu glanced at him, and found that Jiang Xingwu had changed a lot recently, the most obvious being his moody temper, he was smiling one moment, but could pull his face down the next, which made her a little unaccustomed.

But she can also understand, after all, Jiang Xingwu was given by his trusted elder brother.

It is normal for Liqun to betray and walk through the gate of hell again, and his temperament has changed drastically.

Just like she was back then, before Qi Changgui died, she was a foolish and sweet person, but after his death, she turned into a cold and cruel appearance.

She planned to give Jiang Xingwu some more time, and when he recovered, the new year would be just a few days later, she said: "Fifth brother, you can stay in Haozhou and celebrate the new year with me."

She paused, and added: "Ninth younger brother Lu Yanqing is also in Haozhou, and now he is my military advisor."

Jiang Xingwu had already heard about this matter. When he was in Yangzhou City before, Shi Liqun was furious about this matter, saying that Lu Yanqing was a treacherous person. He had clearly made an agreement with him, but then backed out when the matter came to an end, and even colluded with the evil star Qi Zhongyu.

At that time, Shi Liqun didn't know that Qi Zhongyu was the seventh younger brother Zhong Yu back then, and he moved his lips, but he didn't explain the truth.

Thinking about it now, it's thanks to him not explaining, otherwise, it's not hard to imagine how perverted Shi Liqun would be to Qi Zhongyu.

Jiang Xingwu nodded and said: "I will stay, not only this New Year, but I plan to stay in Haozhou City in the future. Seventh brother, let's discuss the world together."

Qi Zhongyu was startled when he heard the words, first he was overjoyed, then he frowned and said, "Fifth brother, to tell you the truth, I laid down so many lands for Tan Haoran of Xinrijiao. He is my old friend a few years ago. Give me nearly 30 taels, as the first fund for the uprising, I have already written a letter and made an agreement with him that I will lay down Huainan Road and give it to him."

Jiang Xingwu: ...

Well, he always knew that Qi Zhongyu valued affection the most, but because of this old friendship, Qi Zhongyu was willing to help him conquer, which was far beyond his imagination.

He hesitated and asked: "Seventh brother, why are you willing to do this for Tan Haoran?"

Qi Zhongyu said: "It's very simple, because he was the first one to tell me that troubled times are coming, let me prepare, and invited me to be a general by his side. At that time, I refused, but he didn't mind. He gave me a precious gift for the first time. Reciprocate, and when I want to lay down a territory, I will naturally think of him first."

"Besides, since the troubled times are a foregone conclusion, I also want to overthrow the Daqi Kingdom as soon as possible and establish a new one. Tan Haoran is a man of integrity, kindness, and extraordinary intelligence. The Xinrijiao has been in development for more than ten years and has the largest scale. He is the most suitable Candidates for the new emperor."

Jiang Xingwu: ...

It really is Qi Zhongyu's style.

He originally planned to fight for territory by himself, but now he was persuaded by Qi Zhongyu, and Qi Zhongyu was different from Shi Liqun in that she was an absolutely reliable brother and would not stab him in the back, so he could cooperate with her with confidence.

Moreover, Tan Haoran, he has also heard of his reputation, is indeed a good leader and worth following.

So he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll be with you."

Qi Zhongyu responded with a smile, and said: "With the help of my fifth brother, I will definitely be able to attack Huainan Road faster!"

After they made an agreement, Qi Zhongyu introduced Jiang Xingwu to his confidant, and directly gave him the right to be under her, which made everyone amazed.

Lu Yanqing: ...

He was very angry. He originally thought that Qi Zhongyu was No.1 under Qi Zhongyu, but he didn't expect to be disturbed by Jiang Xingwu who suddenly appeared.

However, Jiang Xingwu is different from Qi Zhongyu, he is a brave and resourceful man, and he is definitely not easy to deal with.

Lu Yanqing had no choice but to go back and carefully consider whether to break away from Qi Zhongyu, or to lower her status and be inferior to the two of them.

Because of this problem, his new year has been boring.

On the contrary, Qi Zhongyu, after going back to the mountain with his wife to live for a while, took Jiang Xingwu around here, and told Jiang Xingwu some secrets without hesitation.

Jiang Xingwu was both moved and speechless, and reminded her: "Don't trust others in the future."

Qi Zhongyu tilted his head to look at him, and said, "Fifth Brother, have you thought of Shi Liqun again?"

Jiang Xingwu: ...

That's all, let him take care of it

Yes.

Jiang Xingwu did not intend to take advantage of Qi Zhongyu for nothing. He had been in Yangzhou City for a period of time, and he had a loyal confidant to him. After the Chinese New Year, he sent someone to Yangzhou City to explain his "defection".

Before long, dozens of confidantes came to him.

This is not enough, because he was originally a native of Haozhou City, and he made many friends when he was young. He personally went to invite them to discuss the world's plans, and the other party was convinced of his character and decided to join his team.

So in less than half a month, Jiang Xingwu had his own team. Although there were only hundreds of people, all of them were loyal ministers and good generals. It would be a big deal to pull out one casually.

Qi Zhongyu saw it, and after the spring plowing, he called everyone together and said, "Haozhou City has stabilized after a year of development. I think it's time to continue expanding. This time, our troops will be divided into several groups. To occupy the surrounding territory, what do you think?"

This was discussed with Jiang Xingwu before, but it was the first time Lu Yanqing heard of it.

He struggled for a month before, but decided to stay, the third place would be the third, at least Jiang Xingwu and Qi Zhongyu are decent people, he doesn't have to worry about the other party playing tricks behind his back, which saves him a lot of energy.

Hearing Qi Zhongyu's plan at this moment, he glanced at Jiang Xingwu, knowing that the other party must be involved, and he was not angry that these two were thinking secretly behind his back, anyway, since he was ten years old, he knew that the two had a very good relationship.

He said: "The time is indeed ripe, but how to arrange and how to divide the troops? It needs to be carefully considered."

Gao Yu also stroked his beard and said, "And we must move quickly, otherwise the court will react. The Xinrijiao and Yangzhou City are our lessons learned."

Qi Zhongyu nodded, leaned on the stool, and signaled that everyone could come up with any ideas they had.

Everyone spoke freely, and the great talent Lu Yanqing started to record and summarize them, and then voted to make a decision later, Qi Zhongyu would not say everything.

Jiang Xingwu couldn't help but glanced at Qi Zhongyu. He had never seen such a decision-making method. Even in Yangzhou Mansion, before he broke his face with Shi Liqun, the other party pretended to ask for his opinion, turned around and made it himself. Decide.

It is precisely because of this that he suffered several defeats.

But Qi Zhongyu would never do this, she encouraged everyone to speak positively, and even drank a glass of sweet water leisurely.

Oh, by the way, Qi Zhongyu is nearly thirty years old, and likes to drink sweet things like a child, but her wife is willing to spoil her, and Qi Zhongyu is not worried at all that someone will poison her drinking water, Pouring water directly from the jug in this room.

Thinking of this, he froze for a moment, and then realized that the reason why Qi Zhongyu was not afraid of other people's malicious poisoning was because she herself was highly poisoned and unable to conceive children...

Jiang Xingwu frowned. He was a traditional man from another world, and he believed that carrying on the family line was a major event in life.

He was very worried about this, and decided to search for a doctor with good medical skills to treat Qi Zhongyu, maybe he could cure her of this problem.

No matter how the two principals diverged their thinking, everyone still discussed specific measures, and immediately prepared troops, horses, food and grass. Qi Zhongyu, Lu Yanqing, Jiang Xingwu and his confidants, Gao Yu Gaocheng, and other two forces, a total of five The team of people headed towards the five directions of Haozhou City to open up and conquer.

It took a year and a half, and in the autumn of the next year, Qi Zhongyu and others finally successfully occupied half of the territory of Huainan Road.

The left side is adjacent to Shannan Road, the right side goes directly to Yanjing, and the other half of Huainan Road occupied by Yangzhou City is far away.

Although the entire Huainan Road had not yet been conquered, Qi Zhongyu felt that the time was almost up, so he prepared to go to Guannei Road to join Tan Haoran.

Because Xinrijiao and Tan Haoran were never idle when they were attacking the city non-stop before. It showed sharp claws.

will

All the 20 hidden soldiers and horses were thrown into the battlefield, restraining Han Feiyu at once, and beheading Han Feiyu a few months later.

Emperor Qi Guang was furious when he heard the words, and only then did he realize that the Xinri Sect had shown signs of decline before, but it was just luring the enemy to go deeper.

In fact, the Xinrijiao has long been different from the past. Not only can it easily take out 20 soldiers and horses, but there will be more unknown soldiers and horses lurking in the dark.

Emperor Qi Guang was completely scared, and even mobilized the Northwest Army in a panic. You must know that a few years ago, the Northwest Army fought with the grassland tribes for a few months, barely maintaining the peaceful situation.

Although the subsequent marriage made the relationship between the two countries seem friendly, but this peace is very fragile.

Once the Northwest Army is weak, the iron hooves of the grassland tribes will send troops southward, pointing directly at the capital.

Many officials in the imperial court dissuaded Emperor Qi Guang not to be arrogant, and even his brothers and princes also wrote letters to persuade him.

However, it may be that there is a problem with the way of persuasion, which made Qi Guangdi even more angry, and vowed to destroy Xinrijiao.

As a result, the Northwest Army left the Northwest, entered the Guannei Road, and fought against the Xinrijiao. The situation was really stalemate, and the grassland tribes were uncharacteristically, and did not immediately tear up the agreement, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

No matter how chaotic the Daqi Kingdom is now, it is still a civil strife. Neither the imperial court nor the Xinrijiao want other forces to intervene.

In this way, after several months of fierce fighting, Xinrijiao finally gained the upper hand relying on its large number of people and sufficient food and grass.

At this time, Qi Zhongyu wrote to Tan Haoran, deciding to send troops to support him.

However, when she was still packing her bags, she received the news that changed her expression greatly, that is, Tan Haoran, the leader of the Xinri Sect, unexpectedly died of an accident due to a cold on the way to lead the army.

This is too ridiculous!

Seeing that the other party was about to defeat the imperial court, overthrow the Great Qi Kingdom, and establish a new country, Tan Haoran, the candidate for the emperor, died of illness due to a small cold? !

Anyone with a brain would not believe that such a thing would happen, there must be something hidden in it!

After hearing the report from his subordinates, Qi Zhongyu said decisively: "Impossible! Haoran's body is not that weak, and I have always sent people to deliver medicine to him. He will definitely not die of a small wind and cold. !"

Jiang Xingwu and Lu Yanqing were also in the hall, and they heard the news together.

Jiang Xingwu also felt that this method of death was a bit wrong. He and Lu Yanqing looked at each other, shook their heads, and did not express their guess immediately.
