Only then did the second lady of Chu remember Chu Nanxin's thoughts about Zhao Jingyu of the Zhao family for many years, but the Chu family and the Zhao family probably had no possibility of getting married, so what could she do.

"Xin'er, because of your sister, the Zhao family doesn't want to have anything to do with our family, why do you still have such thoughts?" Second Lady Chu persuaded, "If you can marry into the Xu family, you will not be less prosperous and rich." ”

Chu Nanxin was faintly aware of the meaning of Second Lady Chu, and for many years, she realized that Second Lady Chu only had one requirement for her marriage, glory and wealth.

"Mother, it's because I love Brother Yu that I don't want to marry anyone else." Chu Nanxin cried.

Since childhood. She was moved by Zhao Jingyu. Probably no one knows how sad Chu Nanyue was when she was going to get engaged to Zhao Jingyu. And how happy she was when she knew that this family affair was canceled and that she and Zhao Jingyu had a possibility.

"Xin'er, it's useless to cry, your grandfather has already discussed with the Xu family, and the two families are very optimistic about this family business." Second Lady Chu said directly to Chu Nanxin.

"What if I die and don't marry?" A hint of resoluteness flashed in Chu Nanxin's eyes.

Second Mrs. Chu was in a hurry, and her tone was slightly heavy: "Xin'er! The Chu family has raised you for many years, do you have a little bit of family honor and disgrace in your heart? ”

Chu Nanxin was stunned: "But my mother is persecuting me now and marrying someone I don't love." ”

Second Mrs. Chu felt that persuasion was useless, so she had to change her rhetoric and said: "Xin'er, you still agree, you have no relationship with the Zhao family, you are going to marry after all, do you want to marry for the rest of your life?" ”

Chu Nanxin was silent for a while, what Second Lady Chu meant, she already understood.

She was really cold in her heart, but she knew that since her grandfather had already made up her mind, Second Lady Chu was just a messenger.

Even her own mother wouldn't necessarily be on her side. Now, Chu Nanxin can only agree for the time being.

So Chu Nanxin said: "Mother." I'm willing to marry. ”

Seeing that Chu Nanxin finally agreed, Second Mrs. Chu showed a relieved smile.

In the General's Palace.

After the water conservancy of the Pingjiang River was unimpeded, the water volume of the Pingjiang River was stable, and there were no similar disputes between Jiangbei Village and Jiangnan Village.

And in the past few days, Chu Nanyue has received another order, saying that a group of gangsters have suddenly been discovered in the suburbs of Beijing, and they are wandering around to endanger the township.

In order to ensure the stability of the lives of the people on the banks of the Pingjiang River, Zhang Song specially asked Chu Nanyue to send someone to clean up the nearby rogues.

Chu Nanyue's garrison on the outskirts of Beijing has always been well-trained, and it is not a problem to encounter such a rogue.

Zhou Yuanqi led the team, and in just a few days, the rogues had been completely wiped out by the soldiers, and there was no trace in sight.

Chu Nanyue saw that Zhou Yuanqi successfully completed the task, so he naturally returned to the General's Mansion with peace of mind to help Zhang Song continue to deal with some other cases.

However, a few days later, in the general's mansion, Chu Nanyue saw a carrier pigeon fall on his desk. Her heart was tight.

Because the distance between the camp on the outskirts of Beijing and the general's palace in the capital is not too far, it can be reached in a few hours. Therefore, every time Chu Nanyue asked Zhou Yuanqi to pass on the news, he sent his own soldiers to pass it on.

Of course, Chu Nanyue also instructed that if he really encountered something extremely urgent, he could use carrier pigeons to send messages.

Chu Nanyue stepped forward and took off the things tied to the pigeon's feet.

Chu Nanyue and Qingshuang hurriedly read the words on the paper, only to realize that it turned out to be a few soldiers who died in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing.

However, it happened suddenly, and it was impossible to write it down with a few strokes. Although Chu Nanyue was worried, he couldn't get more news immediately.

So Chu Nanyue rode a fast horse and rushed to the camp on the outskirts of Beijing with Qingshuang.

As soon as he entered the main general's tent, Chu Nanyue saw that Zhou Yuanqi's expression was extremely heavy.

"What the hell is going on?" Chu Nanyue said solemnly.

Zhou Yuanqi pointed to a few straw mats next to him with grief in his eyes: "General, everyone is here." ”

Chu Nanyue looked over and saw the corpses of the three soldiers lying on the ground together, and the blood had stained the armor red.

"The general forgives his sins, it is useless for his subordinates!"

Zhou Yuanqi probably felt that he had betrayed Chu Nanyue's trust and had already fallen to his knees.

"When? Let me know from beginning to end. Chu Nanyue said solemnly.

At present, it is not wartime, and the soldiers are responsible for nothing more than the affairs of the capital and Tuntian. can suddenly cause such casualties, Chu Nanyue urgently needs a reason.

"General, the three of them were sent on patrol at noon. But I don't know who suddenly attacked him, and when the hour came, our people took over and found out, but everyone was already cold. Zhou Yuanqi said painfully.

There were no eyewitnesses.

Chu Nanyue frowned, she leaned down, and could only make a simple judgment based on the wounds of the dead soldiers.

She saw that the wounds were very large, as if they were caused by some kind of machete, which showed that the other party's knife was extremely ruthless.

And such weapons and moves reminded Chu Nanyue of the previous gang of rogues.

"Yuan Qi, has that gang of rogues really been wiped out?" Chu Nanyue's gaze became deep.

At that time, the news that the rogues were all wiped out was told to her by Zhou Yuanqi.

And Zhou Yuanqi was silent.

They were all careless about one thing.

The composition of the rogue is complex, and the land of wandering is also very wide. At that time, they concluded that the rogues had been completely wiped out simply by no longer seeing their traces. This is a bit of an inaccuracy.

"It's revenge." Chu Nanyue said.

This gang of gangsters was much more daring than they had imagined. Where would ordinary rogues dare to attack the garrison of the imperial court? I'm afraid that I usually meet it, and I can't even dodge.

Or maybe it was really Chu Nanyue's garrisons who killed one after another, leaving them with no way out. So the fish died and the net was broken, and he tried to take revenge.

"General, what are we going to do now?" Zhou Yuanqi said worriedly.

He has been by Chu Nanyue's side for a long time, and he has experienced a lot of things over the years.

But when he really encountered such a thing, he was indignant at the dead soldiers, but he didn't know what to do.

Probably only Chu Nanyue can become his backbone, and he can also become the backbone of the 20,000 soldiers stationed on the outskirts of Beijing.

"Yuan Qi, give the order to go down, first, when each battalion patrols, the number of people must be tripled, and the shift change time will be shortened." Chu Nanyue commanded in a positive voice.

The rogues are in the dark, and they are in the light.

The avengers must not be given a chance to sneak attack, and the soldiers must not fall into greater panic.

"Second, if their purpose is really to get revenge, then the ultimate target must be me." Chu Nanyue thought for a while.

"General, do you want to arrange more soldiers around you to protect you?" Zhou Yuanqi answered.

He was worried about Chu Nanyue's safety, if it was really the revenge of the rogue, then Chu Nanyue, the chief general of the "initiator", would inevitably be the biggest target of revenge.

Chu Nanyue shook his head: "No, not only can't there be more people, but there should be fewer people." ”

She used herself as bait to come up with a plan to lure the enemy deeper.
