Chapter 387: Righteousness
Although the Xu family's personal pockets and sucking the blood of soldiers were widely spread, the Xu family did not admit it, and the Xu family members stood up and said in righteous words that all their family's money was obtained from legitimate business, and even said that those who maliciously slandered their family would definitely be punished. The Xu family is indeed doing business, and these businesses are still very profitable, as for whether it is a legitimate business or whether it is full of private pockets, it is unknown. With Qin Zhao's talisman, no one dared to check the Xu family.
As for the rumors outside, Xu's life of arrogance and luxury in fine clothes and jade food, she doesn't want to admit it. Because the rumors outside are true, let's say that there was a crab banquet, and she invited more than ten ladies to participate at that time. Of course, it is impossible for more than a dozen women to eat more than 100 crabs in two baskets, and many of them have been given away by the Xu family as favors.
The Xu clan was burdened with such a reputation, which inevitably dragged Qin Zhao into the water. Without Qin Zhao's connivance, where would the Xu family have the capital to live such a life.
Xu was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said, "It's the Han family, it must be the Han family." This slut, I want her to die a good death. "This incident was definitely planned by Han.
Mother Gong didn't expect Han Yuxi's means of fighting back to be so ruthless, which not only put her wife on the cusp of the storm, but also dragged the general and the Xu family into the water: "Madam, endure this tone for the time being." "To deal with such a person, unless you can hit it with one blow, you can't use other small means, and if you use it, it's a bad thing.
Xu nodded and said, "I will have to settle this account with her sooner or later." ”
The person sent by Qin Zhao to find out the news came back and said, "General, the person who deliberately released this news is the eldest girl of the Fu family. "That's a little pepper.
Qin Zhao was surprised and asked, "Why is she?" In fact, it was not so much the Han clan as Yunqing. Yun Qing figured out that Guò had ruined his reputation with the Xu family in order to achieve the goal of being on top.
The person replied: "General Hui, she is indeed the eldest girl of the Fu family." ”
Qin Zhao waved his hand to let people go down, and then asked his staff member Mr. Xia: "What does Mr. think about this matter?" Qin Zhao felt that Fu Qingluo was a gunman alone.
Mr. Xia was clear about the development of this matter and said, "General, this woman of the Han family is too scheming. It seems to be just a woman's competition, but it has dragged you, the general and the Xu family into the water. This time, the following soldiers want to be served, and they are afraid that if something goes wrong with the Xu family in the future, then the general will have to be implicated. "He knows very well what the virtues of the people of the Xu family are, with the Xu family like this, something will happen sooner or later in the future, and Qin Zhao will definitely be dragged down at that time.
Mr. Xia used to be Marshal Qin's confidant, and he was grateful for Marshal Qin's kindness and continued to stay to help Qin Zhao. It's a pity that Qin Zhao is not Marshal Qin, and Mr. Xia can't see many things that Qin Zhao does. But for the marshal's sake, he turned a blind eye.
Qin Zhao's face changed, and he said, "What does Mr. mean, this matter is Han's handiwork, not Yunqing's handiwork?" Qin Zhao was still quite convinced of Mr. Xia.
Mr. Xia said: "What kind of character Yunqing is, the general should know very well, he disdains to use this kind of method." "Yunqing is a bright and upright man, and he won't make this kind of ghost trick.
Qin Zhao thought for a while, and finally nodded in agreement with Mr. Xia's opinion: "When I was in the capital, I only knew that she was not loved by her elders, and her temperament was a little cold, but I didn't know that she had such a scheming, and I didn't know why Song Guifei would give her to Yunqing?"
Mr. Xia said: "It has only been more than half a year since this woman married Yunqing, and it has dismantled the image we have created of Yunqing's brutality and bloodthirstiness. Now the barracks praise Yunqing as a good man who loves his wife and takes care of his family. Although some people said that Yunqing was afraid of his wife, he was quickly drowned in everyone's saliva. This soldier, most of the time is in the barracks, rarely at home, the big and small things in the family are all taken care of by the daughter-in-law, no matter how good the daughter-in-law is, he can't help it! So Yunqing loves his wife and loves his family, which definitely resonates with them.
Qin Zhao didn't say anything.
Mr. Xia continued: "Then there is the matter of the Han clan founding the academy, general, don't underestimate this matter. This is not only to buy life to gain a good reputation, but also to train these children to be the biggest help for Yunqing. "Qin Zhao's meaning is very simple, this woman can't stay.
Qin Zhao didn't agree with this, for Qin Zhao, if there was no Yunqing to support the Han family, the Han family would not be able to shake up. Therefore, the most important thing is to get rid of Yunqing. Yunqing died, and Han Yuxi couldn't jump up.
How did Mr. Xia not know that getting rid of Yunqing was the root of the problem. It's just that the marshal said before his death that with Yunqing, Yucheng can be safe. If Yunqing died, Yucheng would probably fall into the same fate as Tongcheng.
Marshal Qin is a very wise and wise person, but no matter how wise and wise a person is, he also has weaknesses, Qin Zhao is his grandson, and he is the only grandson. He knew that Qin Zhao colluded with the Song family, and the Song family was all wolf-hearted things, but he couldn't deal with Qin Zhao ruthlessly. Originally, he wanted to slowly transfer power to Yun Qing, Marshal Qin knew Yun Qing's temperament, even if Yun Qing controlled the Northwest Army, he would not deal with Qin Zhao for the sake of his face. It's a pity that heaven is not as good as people, he didn't expect Qin Zhao to take the risk, let alone die because of it.
Qin Zhao saw that Mr. Xia didn't speak for a long time, and asked, "Why didn't Mr. Xia speak?" Mr. Xia has talent, but he is not loyal enough to him. There are many things that he doesn't ask, so Mr. Xia doesn't say it, let alone take the initiative to contribute.
Mr. Xia said: "General, it is not so easy to kill Yunqing. "Ever since Yunqing came to the fore, the Song family has wanted to kill Yunqing. Tactics such as poisoning and beauty tricks have been used, and he even spent a huge amount of money to buy the assassination of his close guards, but unfortunately they were unsuccessful. Therefore, it is more than ten times more difficult to kill Yunqing than to kill a Han clan.
Qin Zhao said: "There is always a way. "In the past, it was his grandfather who protected Yunqing, otherwise Yunqing would have died a long time ago. Speaking of this, he couldn't help but resent the dead old man. Obviously, he is his own grandson, but the old man is better to Yunqing than to his own grandson. Now that Yunqing has the ability, he will fight for his position.
Seeing off Mr. Xia, Qin Zhao said with a cold face: "Old thing." He knew very well that Mr. Xia didn't have a way to deal with Qin Zhao, but he didn't want to. He didn't want to use Mr. Xia anymore, but it was not easy to find a trustworthy and talented staff.
Mr. Xia returned to his courtyard and looked at his wife, who was sewing clothes for him, and the idea of leaving Yucheng, a place of right and wrong, could not help but pop up in his mind.
Lin put down the needlework in his hand and said softly, "I'm back! I'll make you a pot of tea." Although the age difference between the husband and wife is nearly ten years, the relationship is very good.
After taking a sip of tea, Mr. Xia put down the teacup and said to Lin: "When spring begins, you take the child back to your parents' house to live for a while." "Lin's maiden home is in Ganzhou City, more than half a month away from here!
Lin's face changed and asked, "What's wrong?"
Mr. Xia lowered his voice and said, "This Yucheng is going to change soon, and it is no longer safe here." "Qin Zhao's talent and strategy are actually not bad, just like this incident, Qin Zhao knows that solving the Han family is a symptom rather than a root cause, and the root is in Yunqing. solved Yunqing, and the Han clan couldn't jump up. But the problem is that he can't fight, and he always loses more and wins less. According to Marshal Qin, Qin Zhao is not a general's material at all. But a guard can't fight, how can he sit in this position. It's just that Yunqing is very good at fighting, even if he is too upright and not good at scheming, but he wins more and loses less in wars, and the casualties are not too big.
Mr. Xia originally thought that it would take at least five years for Yunqing to suppress Qin Zhao, and five years was enough for him to get out safely. But out of the Han family's variable, he felt that it would not take five years, at most three years, Yunqing would be on the throne.
After listening to her husband's explanation, Lin was a little unconvinced, and asked, "Impossible, isn't it?" Mrs. Yun is so powerful?" Regarding the rumors outside, Lin also heard about it.
Mr. Xia smiled bitterly and said, "I'm still a conservative estimate! This Mrs. Yun is scheming so deep that ordinary people can't compare to her." "Not only is he good at scheming, but he also has a long-term vision, and getting such help is equivalent to divine help for Yunqing.
The Lin family frowned and said, "But doesn't the Song family want to suppress Yun Qing? No matter how powerful Mrs. Yun is, can she still fight the Song family? I heard that if it weren't for Song Guifei's bad behavior, Mrs. Yun would have married the current Tanhualang." If she was really so smart, how could she be given a marriage to Yun Qing?" "Don't look at Yun Qing being praised as a good husband now, but at that time, Yun Qing was the most unpopular bachelor in Yucheng. Not only does he look average, but more importantly, he is notorious, and he has a stunned face, which makes people scary when he looks at it.
Mr. Xia's face changed after hearing this, he had previously judged that with the assistance of the Han Clan, Yun Qing would be able to pull Qin Zhao down in three years at most. But just listening to his wife's words made him realize that he had made a mistake. Qin Zhao was able to find the Song family to form an alliance with the Song family, and Yunqing was also able to form an alliance with the Yu family. Han's eldest brother, Han Gong, is already close to the Yu family, and with this Korean Gong matchmaking, the two families will definitely reach a consensus soon. And the power of the Yu family and the Song family is comparable. Once Yunqing and the Yu family form an alliance, even the Song family will not be able to suppress Yunqing. In less than two years, Yunqing will be able to become the commander of the northwest.
Thinking of this, Mr. Xia smiled bitterly. He couldn't tell Qin Zhao about this, otherwise Qin Zhao would really kill Yun Qing. Why did the old marshal raise Yunqing to suppress Qin Zhao before his death, that is, he knew that Yunqing could protect Yucheng and defend the border city. Mr. Xia is worried that if Yunqing dies, it will really be as the marshal said, and Yucheng will become the second Tongcheng. For the sake of justice, he couldn't say anything about it.
Mr. Xia said to his wife: "After the new year, you will drag a message to your mother-in-law, and let your mother-in-law send someone to pick you up when spring begins." Don't come back without my letter. Remember?" the children of the two are also placed in the Lin family's mother's house, this place in Yucheng is too dangerous, but anyone who has the ability and a way will not take the child with him.
Mrs. Lin nodded stunned and said, "Remember." ”
