Li You's Tang Dynasty

Chapter 625 Generous Death
"Yao'er, don't panic!" Feng An, who had already stood up, glanced at Feng Yao to himself, then sat down slightly and said, "Even if your uncle betrayed us, it doesn't matter.

Your uncle doesn't have many cronies in Lingnan. Most importantly, he has no military power in Lingnan. As long as the military power is still in our hands, there will be no problem with Lingnan coveting. "

"But Grandpa, Uncle has already taken King Qi to the Lingnan camp! If the Lingnan camp is forced to surrender due to the status of Prince Qi, then we...!"

Feng Yao didn't finish her sentence.

Feng An on the other side shook his head and said confidently: "Impossible, Feng Bao followed me all the way here, so he will never betray me. Don't worry, Yaoer, the Lingnan Camp will always be in our hands .”

The voice just fell.

"It's not good, it's not good. Grandpa Feng Bao is dead, Feng Bao is dead!"

"What did you say?"

Feng An just sat down and got up again, and then an old servant appeared behind him. This old servant is the chief steward of Feng's mansion. He has been with Feng An for decades, and his words have always been credible. Yes, so this is because after the old housekeeper said that Feng Bao was dead, the confident Feng An got up again in shock.

"Grandfather Feng Bao has been killed by the King of Qi. Now the Lingnan Camp has been completely controlled by the King of Qi. Now the King of Qi is taking soldiers from the Lingnan Camp to raid Feng Bao's house. This Feng Bao is also a bastard. At that time, King Qi took the soldiers of the Lingnan Camp and found a beauty prison in Feng Bao's home, in which there were many wives, daughters and relatives of the generals and soldiers of the Lingnan Camp.

Then hundreds of thousands of gold and silver were copied out of Feng Bao's house, and the king of Qi announced that all the ill-gotten gains would be used for the disability and death compensation of Lingnan soldiers. . "

"Pfft!" A mouthful of blood spurted out, and Feng An fainted on the chair.

After Feng An fainted, the Feng family immediately invited the doctor. Fortunately, the doctor was capable of acting, so he rescued Feng An. When he heard his father vomit blood, Feng Zhichen also came back in a hurry and served him all the time. Feng An's side.

About an hour later, Feng An woke up and saw his eldest son at first glance. At this time, Feng An did not get angry but asked with a sigh: "When did you join the court?"

Here Feng Zhizhen didn't hide it either: "It was the last time when Datang was recruiting a son-in-law, I asked Feng Xing to be my representative, went to Beijing with Wang Xu, and then expressed my sincerity to His Majesty."

"Feng Xing can actually go to Beijing to meet His Majesty instead of you, this kid is finally sensible." Feng Ang smiled faintly.

"Yeah, I was also very surprised. Originally, I didn't have much hope, but what I didn't expect was that this time Feng Xing's journey to Beijing was very smooth, and he also worshiped Wang Biejia as his teacher. After returning , and became more calm, now His Royal Highness Qi Wang asked Feng Xing to accompany His Royal Highness Princess Jinyang, and said that when he went back, he would give Xing'er a county.

If Xing'er is willing, he can also study at His Highness's Chang'an University, so that we can strengthen our connection with the Tang court. His Highness King Qi is very thoughtful. "

"This is to win over you." Feng An frowned slightly.

"I know!" Feng Zhizhen nodded: "But father, we are ministers, although we own the land of Lingnan, but the land of Lingnan can only be defended to the death, there is no future at all, so we can only be ministers.

Datang is booming now, we can't still be obedient to Datang like before, it's time to make a change, courtiers must have the attitude of courtiers, I believe, as long as we have the attitude of courtiers, Datang will not kill us Feng family of. "

"These are all excuses. You actually want to be the head of the Feng family, but have you ever thought that if you do this, your younger brother will be disappointed? He has been in Chang'an for decades for our Feng family. proton.

Yao'er has also lost her father since she was a child, and our Feng family owes this father and son a debt. "

"I know, so I can't let Feng Yao become the head of the family. Father, you dote on Feng Yao too much. There are some things I don't want to say, because you may not believe what I said. After you get better, you can check it yourself. Check out your wonderful grandson.

Although he is an obedient scholar on the surface, the things behind the scenes will surprise you. Such a person must not be allowed to become the head of the family. "

"Okay, stop talking, you go first, I don't need you here." Feng An waved his hand.

Feng Zhichen didn't continue talking, but stood up respectfully and said, "Father, I will go first, and I will go to accompany His Royal Highness Qi Wang. Three days later, His Royal Highness Qi Wang will attack Mocheng and Sangcheng." There are still many things to do, I am the Duke of Ling now, and I must fully cooperate with His Highness King Qi and do a good job in logistics for His Royal Highness, so I can't spare more time to see you, please forgive me, father."

"Let's go. It's good that you're not here," Feng An turned over after finishing speaking.

Feng Zhichen didn't say anything, and left the room directly.

However, just after Feng Zhizhen left the room, Feng An called his confidant old butler in. For some reason, he was going to check Feng Yao. He wanted to tell Feng Zhizhen with the facts that everything belonged to him. It's just ambition.

But the results of the investigation will surprise Feng An.

Li You had already stabilized the Lingnan Camp. The moment Li You led the Lingnan Camp out of the beauty prison in Feng Bao's house, the hearts of the soldiers in the entire Lingnan Camp no longer belonged to the Feng family.

The pain after embracing their loved ones made the generals and soldiers of the Lingnan Camp completely lose faith in the Feng family.

What Li You didn't expect was that just when he thought it was a happy ending, a sad news came. The 28 women who were released from the beauty prison, after a brief reunion with their relatives , collectively committed suicide by jumping into the river.

This is the famous festival of women in ancient times. None of the 28 women died of fear. They all jumped into the river. The relatives on the bank cried and their eyes were red, but no one went to pull it, because they couldn't pull it. This is the only thing for these women. A chance to wash yourself.

Only such women can enter their ancestral graves, and the story of their generous death has also been left by history, which has become evidence that Lingnan women regard chastity as life. A stele was erected, called Lie Nv Stele, which has been preserved for many years.

It's just that Li You felt a little bitter. He really didn't expect such a result. If he knew that it was such a result, he might secretly send these women away, but the matter has already happened, and this matter This incident also caused Feng An's reputation to fall to the bottom. After all, Feng Bao is Feng An's most important confidant.
