the first lady

Chapter 56

Zong Zhengye's face became even more gloomy. He already understood that Emperor Wu had given Wu Chao the matter of the Yi tribe's bandits before, but he didn't think that Emperor Wu was actually giving Wu Chao the opportunity to make meritorious deeds, so that he had the opportunity to support him justifiably.If he doesn't agree this time, then he will definitely be dragged down from the position of Zhennan General, and Wu Chao will naturally replace him!

Qiao Ling'er paused for a moment, and then said: "Brother, if you broke your face with the emperor at this time, the emperor will definitely not embarrass the Zong Zheng family, but the third prince..."

The conversation turned to Helian Feiqi, and Zong Zhengye also looked at him.

After all, Zongzhengyi is the prime minister of a country, if he is moved without a proper reason, he will definitely be talked about by the world; and Zongzhengyan is also the founder of the third family, if he is moved, at least the economy of Nanwu Kingdom will be in a short period of time will not recover.

So now I can only point the finger at someone else - Helian Feiqi!
There was already a delicate relationship between Emperor Wu and the empress, and there was also a great competition between the third prince Helian Feiqi and the crown prince Helian Feiyan.Emperor Wu took a fancy to the relationship between Zongzhengye and Helianfeiqi and pointed the finger at him. In this way, Helianfeiqi lost a powerful backing.

Originally, several forces restrained each other, but this balance was broken, after all, someone will pay the price for it!
Helian Feiqi suddenly laughed, patted Zong Zhengye on the shoulder and said, "Ye, I know what you're thinking, but if you become the target of the old guy because of this, wouldn't it be my fault?"

"Qi..." Zong Zhengye frowned even more.

"Besides, Ye, you also understand Xiaoliu's feelings for you, don't you really have the heart to have my flowery little sister waiting for you in the deep palace?" Helian Feiqi said lightly.

After saying this, Qiao Linger was a little surprised. The Sixth Princess treated Zong Zhengye...

Seeing Qiao Linger puzzled, Zong Zhengyan explained to her: "Princess Six has always had a soft spot for Eldest Brother, but Elder Brother has not looked at him for a long time, which made Sixth Princess so sad!"

"Yan!" Zongzhengye interrupted Zongzhengyan's words angrily, and a faint flush appeared on Gangzheng's face.

Zongzheng Yan shut up quickly and rationally, the eldest brother doesn't like people making fun of him with his children's affair!Especially the sixth princess, there are some little secrets between them.

"Besides that," Helian Feiqi's voice sank, adding to the coldness, "I can't see through the old guy's thoughts. He is clearly helping Helian Feiyan, but as far as I know, he has a lot in his heart. The successor seems to be someone else!"

"Anyone else?" Zong Zhengye was surprised, but he stopped him with a look.

"The more obvious the old guy's behavior, the more I care about it." Helian Feiqi said coldly, hesitated for a moment, and then continued: "In short, this time you have to go back no matter what, and you can't leave any excuses for him. , understand?"

Helian Feiqi's words were serious, and those who listened were also solemn.

Helian Feiqi's words are very similar to what Zong Zhengyi said. Some people do things that can be easily seen on the surface, but the reasons why he does things are incredible.

Emperor Wu clearly helped the crown prince Helian Feiyan, but at the palace banquet he was full of praise for the sake Helianfeiqi sent, that was his pampering for his son, and it wasn't like pretending at all.However, the more obvious he behaved, the more people paid attention to him.

Perhaps, Emperor Wu is actually a real old fox.Before he has figured out his intentions, he must not act rashly, let alone let him catch him.

"Okay, I'll go back." After thinking about it, Zong Zhengye finally nodded.

Several other people were also relieved because of this, he never thought that he was a person who was arrogant, and there were some things that he needed to bear and he had to bear them.This balance cannot be greatly broken because of him alone, let alone disregard others for his own selfish desires!
"That's good, brother, the imperial decree should be issued in two days, and uncle and I should go back." Qiao Ling'er said to Zong Zhengye.

"Going back so soon?" Zong Zhengye asked in surprise, and Helian Feiqi also looked at her in surprise.

Zong Zhengyan smiled and took the words: "Brother, this time it was the second brother who ordered us to persuade you. He said that you would listen to him." The result was indeed the case, and of course Helian Feiqi's words also came into play. No small effect.

Zong Zhengye was a little embarrassed, if the second brother didn't bring him a message, maybe he would really stick to the end and never go back!He knew very well that if only Helian Feiqi came to persuade him, he would definitely "fight" to the end!
It is not suitable for Qiao Linger and Lanfeng to stay in the military camp for a long time, especially since there is still Wu Chao.Wu Chao's appearance was not in Qiao Ling'er's plan, and she must not use her true face in front of him, plus her height does not match, even if she met him alone, she would definitely be exposed.

Now that the words have been conveyed, the imperial decree will arrive in two days, and there are other things to do along the way, so they should also leave.

It took less than half an hour to arrive at the barracks. If you count it a little wider, they entered the border an hour ago, and they talked for half an hour. They left without even eating a meal.

Four people, four horses, strolling under this clear sky, has a special taste.

Qiao Linger rode on the horseback, feeling the breath of autumn.The Yi nationality is in the south, and it seems that they have not been fully infected with the taste of autumn, and it seems that there is still a little summer style, but the cool wind makes her very happy.

Slightly raised his head and breathed in the earthy air, without the exhaust of factory cars, the whole air seemed to be more valuable!
"Second sister-in-law, when will you be free to teach me the imitation voice?" Zong Zhengyan looked sideways at Qiao Ling'er, and gained a new understanding and admiration for her from the bottom of his heart.

Qiao Ling'er turned her head to the side and asked indifferently: "What do you want to learn?"

"Then why does the second sister-in-law want to learn?" Zong Zhengyan asked cleverly.

"Why should I tell you?" Qiao Ling'er retorted, would she directly tell him that this imitation sound in the process of stealing can help them better accomplish their tasks?Obviously not.

"Then why do I need to tell my second sister-in-law if I want to learn?" Qiao Ling'er is smart, and Zong Zhengyan is not stupid either!

It's just that Zongzhengyan didn't expect that there are mountains as high as mountains, and there are people beyond others.

Qiao Ling'er smiled and said: "This ability is mine, and it's up to me whether to teach it or not, so I've decided now: I won't teach you!"

The white fingers like scallions swayed in front of Zongzheng Yan's eyes, which made Zongzheng Yan's face bitter.How could he forget that this second sister-in-law is not as rumored!

Riding the horse and walking slowly on the grass sparse on the dirt and stones, listening to the crisp sound of horseshoes, it is a rare and peaceful day.He was no longer under surveillance, and he was not even discovered when he came out. He didn't have to think about those complicated plots and schemes, and he was very relaxed both physically and mentally.

"My lord, there's a person there!" In the originally harmonious atmosphere, Aoba's icy voice, who had never relaxed his vigilance and patrolled, suddenly sounded.

This "Young Master" is naturally calling Qiao Ling'er.As soon as Aoba finished speaking, Qiao Linger, Zongzhengyan and Lanfeng all turned to the direction Aoba was pointing at.

In the outdoors, it is best not to pay attention to the living or the dead, because the next person to be implicated and persecuted may be yourself.This is the theory that Qiao Linger learned in the 21st century. You may be innocent, but you will often be regarded as a criminal and thus be charged with certain "crimes"!It also confirms the so-called "good intentions are not rewarded"!
However, this place can also be regarded as a place under the jurisdiction of the border army. From time to time, soldiers on patrol will come over, but there is an unknown person in this jurisdiction, which is definitely suspicious.

"Go and have a look!" Qiao Ling'er steered the horse lightly, pulling the rein forward.

Zong Zhengyan also followed Qiao Linger, and he had to say he was a little more confused about her.

"My lord, wait here a moment." Qing Ye said to Qiao Ling'er, and then got off the horse to investigate the man who didn't know whether he was dead or alive.

Lan Feng clenched the sword in his hand. The person lying on the ground might also be an assassin. After all, there are not many people dressed in black in this barren land.Qing Ye bent down, and turned the man over with the sword in one hand and the other.

A handsome but pale and bloodless face was exposed in the air, with black blood on the corner of the mouth, and a small gash on the shoulder, but one could see the black blood flowing from the wound.

"Death!" Aoba frowned.

"The world's number one killer?!" Before Qiao Ling'er could ask, Zongzheng Yan and Lan Feng spoke at the same time.

Aoba raised the sword next to the man, if you want to say how this sword is different from other swords, I am afraid that this red sword is enough to make people feel cold.

Zongzheng Yan's face changed slightly, and he turned over and got off the horse neatly, and confirmed the red sword that Aoba was pointing at: "Why is he here?"

Aoba shook his head helplessly, and he couldn't answer this question.

"Are you still alive?" Qiao Ling'er also got off the horse.

Lan Feng, who got off the horse with Zong Zhengyan, had already stepped forward, and put his hand in front of Aoba to detect the deadly breath.

"Alive." Lan Feng said coldly, checked the injury on his shoulder at the same time, stood up and replied to Qiao Linger: "The weapon that injured him has Qijue San, because of his luck and quick action, blood circulation is accelerated, Qijue The scattered poison will attack early, "

"How long has it been poisoned?" Qiao Linger asked with a frown.

"It should be between four and five days." Lan Feng glanced at the black blood again, and continued: "The poison of Qijue San will only attack after seven days of poisoning. When the poison occurs, the pain is unbearable, so painful that you faint Once a day, seven orifices will bleed to death after seven days. The deadly poison has already attacked twice!"
