The boat lost its boatman's manoeuvre, floated on the river and drifted with the waves, and gradually fell behind the Li family's fleet, widening up a lot of distance.

Chen Shuda sighed, "Holy Aunt actually went?" Alas, even this year is only fifty, I didn't expect to leave so early. ”

Talking about this holy aunt, as if he was an acquaintance of Chen Shuda, he was depressed and sighed again and again. The Lingnan saintess and her entourage on the side couldn't help but think of the holy aunt who had just passed away, and there was silence in the boat for a while.

"Can you remove the face towel and let me see your face?" Chen Shuda shed two lines of tears on his face in the dim moonlight.

The saint nodded slightly, and reached out to take off the black scarf on her face. Chen Shuda was only three or four steps away from her, and although the ship was dim, he could still see the daughter of the old man opposite through the sparse moonlight.

"Like, really like." Chen Shuda looked at it carefully for a while, and said with a long sigh.

Looking at this somewhat familiar face, he couldn't help but think of several old people who had been in the dust for many years.

Lingnan Baiyue, as we all know, has long been subjugated to the Central Plains Dynasty, but for a long time, they have been called barbarians and people who do not obey the king. Whether it was the Han Dynasty or the Jin Dynasty, or the Northern and Southern Dynasties, the imperial court had always sent a few officials to Lingnan, but for the governance of the local people, it mainly relied on the local Baiyue leaders.

During the Liang Kingdom of the Southern Dynasty, the Xian family of the Nanyue slang people in Gaoliang County was the leader of Nanyue, with a jurisdiction of thousands of miles and more than 100,000 tribes. The leader of his clan gave birth to a daughter named Lily, a young and intelligent man, who followed his father and brother since he was a child, and experienced many armed fights between tribes, and was quite manly. Later, he had to be taught martial arts and strategies, not only able to hold a bow and shoot arrows. He is more proficient in the method of marching and arranging. Good at strategy, when he was in his parents' house, he was able to follow the people, and was deeply trusted by the people, and even the slang people in the Dan'er area of Hainan - more than 1,000 holes also came to attach.

By the age of twenty-four, Lily was twenty-four years old, and the Northern Yan royal descendant Luozhou Thorn Shi "heard his ambitions" and hired him as the wife of his son Gao Liang Taishou Feng Bao. The Feng family was originally a Han family who had moved to Lingnan for many years. The marriage between the Xian family, the leader of South Vietnam, and the Feng family, a large Han clan in Lingnan, made the entire Lingnan land gradually subordinate to these two families.

In the first year of Liang Dabao, Li Qianshi, the assassin of Gaozhou, secretly conspired against Hou Jing, and Mrs. Xian had insight into his treachery, and highlighted the defeat of Li Qianshi by surprise soldiers. During the counterinsurgency, she became acquainted with Chen Baxian, the governor of Liang. She thought that Chen Baxian was a person who could calm the chaos of the world, and she greatly appreciated it. In the second year of Dabao, Mrs. Xian assisted Chen Ba to capture and kill Li Qianshi first. The Liang Dynasty talked about counterinsurgency and canonized Mrs. Xian as "Protecting Mrs. Hou". In the second year of Taiping, Chen Ba first proclaimed himself emperor, changed the Yuan to Yongding, and Chen Chaoli.

Chen Yongding for two years. Feng Baoshu, Lingnan chaos. Mrs. Sin relied on her prestige. Persuade and pacify Baiyue. Since then, Mrs. Xian has served as the prestige of the Xian family of Nanyue and the Feng family of the Han family, and has been in Lingnan. Baiyue is stable. Madame Xian had a good relationship with several generations of emperors of the Chen Dynasty, which made Lingnan stable. By the time she arrived at Empress Chen, she was already sixty years old, her son Feng Fu had died, and her grandson Feng Soul and Feng Xuan were with her, and everyone called her "Holy Mother".

After the Sui army conquered Jiankang, Emperor Wen of Sui Emperor Yang Jian once sent people to the hands of Our Lady through the 'Funan Rhino Staff' given to Chen Houzhu by Our Lady and his handwritten letter to appease Lingnan. Our Lady once led the Lingnan Baiyue army to Chen Binglingnan border. He wanted to fight a decisive battle with the Sui army going south. After all, I saw that the Chen room was destroyed. Considering that Lingnan is stable, there is no choice but to surrender.

In order to win the hearts of the Lingnan people, Yang Jian posthumously named Mrs. Xian's husband Feng Bao as the governor of Guangzhou. Add the Duke of the State of Chen, and add Mrs. Xian as the Lady of the State. He was also awarded the Seal Letter Soldier Talisman, giving him full command of the soldiers and horses of the six states of Lingnan.

In the second year of Sui Renshou, Our Lady of Lingnan died at the age of seventy-five. After the death of Mrs. Xian, Feng An, the grandson of Mrs. Xian and the son of Feng Fu, was appointed as the assassin of Gaozhou, and the second grandson Feng Xuan was appointed as the assassin of Luozhou. Mrs. Xian's granddaughter Feng Di did not lose to her grandmother and succeeded to the position of the leader of the Nanyue tribe of the Xian family, known as the Lingnan Holy Aunt. …,

Later, Feng Ang was transferred to the Hexi Hanyin Taishou, and when he conquered Liao, he went out with the driver and was awarded the post of general of Zuo Wuwei. In the eleventh year of the Great Cause, after the siege of Yanmen was lifted, Feng Ang did not fall to Li Yuan and any other faction, but returned to Lingnan. Soon, the Chen Dynasty was restored, and Feng Ang got the help of his sister Our Lady of Lingnan, and with the help of Feng and Xian, he took control of the 16 counties of Lingnan. Subsequently, the Feng Ang brothers coerced the sixteen counties to annex Nanchen, but they supported the army in Lingnan and listened to the tune but did not listen to the announcement.

When Feng Ang and Feng Xuan decided to join Nan Chen, Feng Di, the Lingnan holy aunt, once objected, and he was not optimistic about the restored Nan Chen. However, Feng An's wife is also the daughter of the contemporary head of the Xian family, the leader of South Vietnam, although Feng Di was honored as the Holy Aunt and inherited the position of the Holy Mother, but Feng Ang finally moved the Xian family and the leaders of various departments in South Vietnam through his wife to join the Chen Dynasty.

Now Feng Ang has been crowned Situ by Nan Chen, participated in political affairs, and was the king of Gaoliang. Feng Xuan was crowned King of Yi'an and Taibao, and Feng Di was also honored as the Holy Aunt of Lingnan and the eldest princess of Yongping. Even Feng An's daughter, Feng Wan, was exceptionally crowned as the princess of Hainan and the saint of Lingnan.

However, within Lingnan, the Han people represented by the Xian Ang brothers and the South Vietnamese ethnic groups represented by Feng Di have been constantly arguing internally. Feng Ang wholeheartedly attached himself to Nan Chen because he saw that Nan Chen was just controlled by the Shen family and other major clans in Jiangnan. Feng Ang is an ambitious person, he has followed Yang Guang for many years, and he is not a person who is willing to be ordinary. Like Shen Faxing, he also wanted to control Jiangnan, or even the entire Chen Dynasty, and he was not willing to be just a local emperor of Lingnan.

Von Di, on the other hand, inherited the legacy of her grandmother, Mrs. Lingnan, and was dedicated to the stability and unity of South Vietnam. At this time, the world was in turmoil, and she did not want the various ethnic groups in South Vietnam to be involved in the competition of those heroes in the Central Plains. She doesn't care which one is the emperor, no matter which one is the emperor, as long as the world is calm, they can all belong to him. Instead of taking the people of South Vietnam into this bloodshed as they are now.

However, Feng Di is alone, but he can't control the momentum that has been rolled up by the two brothers. At the end of last year, Yang Hui of Jianghan stayed behind to guard the soldiers and horses, and under the command of Yang Hui's uncle Xiao Yu and Xiao Miao, he successively defeated the Chen Dynasty's Zhu Cang soldiers and horses in the Jianghan Valley, and advanced all the way to the east. Successively captured Changsha, Hengshan, Lingling, Guiyang, Yichun and other counties. And the soldiers and horses will be on the border of Shi'an County, Xiping County, and Nanhai County on the border of Lingnan, and they may break into Lingnan at any time.

However, most of the soldiers and horses of the Chen Dynasty fought fiercely under the Jiangdu City for more than a year, and they did not succeed for a long time, and they were struggling. In the face of the army of Liangxiao, not only was it powerless to stop it, but it took the initiative to shrink its troops and horses, and was defeated before fighting.

In this way, the sixteen counties of Lingnan plus the three counties of Hainan Island, the entire nineteen counties, were completely exposed to the soldiers of Xiao Yu and Xiao Miao. However, Nan Chen, the backer of Lingnan, sat back and ignored it, retreated his troops and horses to the east, and completely ignored Lingnan.

Lingnan has many obstacles, and the mountains are poor, humid and hot, the people are rude, and the Central Plains Dynasty does not take this place very seriously. Although it has a vast territory of 19 counties, it is not inferior to the land of several counties in the Central Plains. But for the Lingnan people who were born and raised in Sri Lanka, this is their hometown. If it is occupied by Yang Jin's soldiers and horses, then with the situation of competing for deer today, all ethnic groups in Lingnan will not be able to escape this military disaster.

Shenggu Diying was extremely worried, and it didn't take long for her to fall ill, and when she survived until this year, not only did she not get better, but it became more and more serious, and finally a month ago, she couldn't afford to be sick and went west.

The Feng Ang brothers sent many envoys to report to the capital of Jiankang, hoping that the Shen family and others could send reinforcements to help them resist Xiao Yu's soldiers and horses, but the envoys who pulled out the envoys sent them were like stones into the water, and there was no news.

Not long ago, Shen Luoyan sent a secret letter to Shen Faxing, saying that he would ally with Wang Shichong, Yang Yong and others to jointly defeat Chen Pojun, who is now the most powerful in Hebei, and open up the situation for the Northern Expedition of the Chen Dynasty. Shen Faxing and several other clans of Nanchen have been trapped under the city of Jiangdu for a long time, and their labor is fruitless, and they are also at a loss. After receiving this letter from my daughter, I just listened to it. Thinking of several rescue letters from Lingnan, he simply sent a letter to Feng An, telling him of his daughter's plan, and asking him to send someone to Heyang to contact Shen Luoyan, and find a way to join forces with Wang Shichong or Li Mi to use their soldiers and horses to resolve the soldiers and horses that held Xiao Yu back. …,

After receiving this letter, Feng Ang jumped to his feet angrily and scolded Shen Faxing. But by this time, the dead horse had to be used as a live horse doctor. He couldn't go north himself, so he let his daughter Feng Wan, who had known Shen Faxing's daughter, go north. Let her figure out a way to try to find a solution.

Xian Wan arrived in Heyang and soon got in touch with Shen Luoyan. But for the crisis in Lingnan, Shen Luoyan couldn't solve it for a while. On the other hand, Feng Wan also has her own judgment on the current situation, and has always agreed with his aunt's point of view in the internal disputes in Lingnan: Lingnan is the Lingnan of Lingnan people, and it should never be mixed with the disputes and wars of the Central Plains people.

Seeing that time passed day by day, and her father's letters from Lingnan became more and more expected, Xian Wan finally turned her attention to Chen Pojun, the focus of Hanoi at this time. Although Chen Pojun's soldiers and horses are in the northernmost part, and their Lingnan is in the southernmost part, it can be said that they are far apart. But long-distance friends and close attacks, as long as they can form an alliance with Chen Pojun, then with Chen Pojun's might, they can definitely deter Xiao Yu one or two. Especially after she saw the drill of Hebei's sailors, she became more and more sure that Chen Pojun, who has the strongest sailor in the world, as long as she is willing to help them. Although Hebei and Lingnan are separated by 108,000 miles, Hebei's sailors can go directly down the sea without half a point of obstruction, and go directly to Lingnan.

But there is no hatred for no reason in the world, and there is no love for no reason.

If Chen Pojun wants to help them at the ends of the earth, they must also be able to come up with corresponding conditions to invite them, or they can also do Hebei a big favor. Feng Wan couldn't get a gift that could impress Chen Pojun for a while, and she couldn't think of any place that could help Chen Pojun with such a big favor.

Unexpectedly, on the hunting ground today, Feng Wan unexpectedly saw a strange and familiar person, this person was Chen Shuda.

(Lingnan should be nineteen counties, and one Hainan Island is missing in front, and Hainan Island is three counties at the end of the Sui Dynasty.) ）
