Chapter 756 Covenant

Chu Nanzhi asked Sang Qi to bring up the two clean clothes, and said in a low voice: "The Langzhou Army will arrive here tomorrow, so I can only wrong you two to pretend to be my servants temporarily."

"What's the big deal."

Xie Jingchen smiled slightly and slowly frowned: "It's just that you are sure that Ji Rongheng is really capable of protecting you? I heard that Mrs. Yan Jing, the governor of Langzhou, was the princess Yan Jing who married here back then, and Pei Yuanzhi, the governor of Langzhou, Although she has been ill these years, Princess Yan Jing is not a weak woman. She has managed Langzhou for many years for Pei's son-in-law, and she has some prestige in the officialdom and army of Langzhou, even though Ji Rongheng is in charge of the Langzhou army. , and dare not be arbitrary."

"I am the Chief Sikou hand-picked by His Majesty to inspect the south of the Yangtze River. Even if she is the eldest princess, dare to detain me by force?"

Chu Nanzhi replied solemnly.

What's more, Chang Lao holds King Qin's edict in his hand, and Princess Yan Jing will never join the Yizhou army in rebellion.

"Don't underestimate this person."

Xie Jingchen kindly reminded: "After all, King Qinghe is aggressively attacking Jingling City right now, and the various powerful forces clinging to the Tang family will definitely help. Those who will sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, Langzhou is the throat fortress of the Dahe Empire, whether King Qinghe goes south or orders her husband to go north is the most important thing, Princess Yan Jing must know the pros and cons, she will not be casual compromise."

"I can't take care of so much right now. Let the Yizhou Army retreat first is the top priority."

Chu Nanzhi took a sip of tea slowly, and said with a wry smile: "No matter what, staying in Langzhou is better than falling into the hands of the Tang family, don't you think so?"

"That's true."

Xie Jingchen nodded and said: "Anyway, you are magnanimous, no matter what situation you are in, you can deal with it calmly. At most, you are heartless and heartless, leaving everyone to die alone."

Recalling the scene where she faced the Yizhou Army alone at the risk of her own life, he still had a grudge in his heart at this time.

If something really happened to her, she seemed to have no intention of living.

"Okay, let's not mention the past, since you wake up, I feel relieved."

Chu Nanzhi stood up, thinking of the fact that he sent three thousand dead soldiers to hold back the Yizhou army, she couldn't help asking: "Your elder brother led an army of 150,000 men to march towards the border, I have to hurry Trying to send you back to Stone Tart City, do you have anyone to support you?"

"No."

Xie Jingchen guessed that she was trying to test himself, and shook his head calmly, "What I can mobilize is the spies placed by the Prime Minister of the country. If there are any more, it must be the work of my elder brother."

The purpose of Li Nanfu's infiltrating into the Dahe Empire these years is only to find out the secrets of the Lin family. He wanted to find the posthumous son of Prince Ting'an and take the opportunity to go north. However, Xie Jingzhan's intention was probably only to conquer the city, so most of his spies were stationed in various places in the south of the Yangtze River.

"It's true, if Prince Xie really has all-hands and eyes, he wouldn't be trapped in Jingling City."

Chu Nanzhi smiled charmingly at him: "Sleep peacefully and sleep well, in order to **** my family out of danger, you even gave up the money that Mrs. Li's father had accumulated for many years. I will not be able to do it with my clumsy husband." If I treat you badly, I will **** the two of you back."

Mentioning this matter, Li Shiyao felt distressed the most.

Father had planned for many years, hoping that these spies would find out the whereabouts of the posthumous son of the late prince, but just now she heard that the Dahe Empire had announced that the world would welcome the posthumous son back to Beijing.

Walking back and forth between Chu Nanzhi and Xie Jingchen with deep eyes, Li Shiyao asked with complicated eyes: "Sister Chu must have known that Ling Husband is the posthumous son of Prince Ting An, right?"

After learning about this, Xie Jingchen just took a sip of tea and spit it out, staring at Li Shiyao in shock: "What did you say?"

Li Shiyao turned around coldly, and walked straight to the next room.

"Little Zhizhi, are you hiding something from me again?"

Xie Jingchen glared at her angrily: "How can you hide such a big matter from me?"

"I only learned about it not long ago."

Chu Nanzhi smiled stiffly: "But since you know that my poor husband has obtained the imperial edict to serve as King Jingqin, you should have guessed the details with your intelligence."

"Yes, yes."

Xie Jingchen scratched his head and shook his head: "He is right in front of my eyes. I should have thought of this a long time ago. The lineage of King Pingning has been abolished for hundreds of years. Even if the emperor of your dynasty pities these unpopular clans, he will not reuse Mr. Ling for no reason, unless He is the posthumous son of Prince Ting'an, no wonder the two most famous Confucian scholars in your country are willing to retire to protect him by his side."

At this point, he couldn't help but sighed a few times: "It's all because of my carelessness."

"Why, is it possible that Prince Xie also has other ambitions?"

Chu Nanzhi asked meaningfully.

"I don't have any ambitions."

Xie Jingchen sighed helplessly: "If it weren't for being in the royal family, I would rather be a wandering wild crane wandering around. It's just that Mr. Xiangguo and my six uncles have painstakingly cultivated me for many years. I don't want to let them down too much."

"The Xie royal family was considered a noble family in the previous dynasty, but after all, they had a different heart. When the Qinghe clan entered Jingling City, they even led the top ten noble families to retreat to Shita City. Now that they have made their choice at the beginning, Now why should I be obsessed with it anymore?"

Chu Nanzhi persuaded patiently: "After all, the Dahe Empire has been established for hundreds of years. After several generations of prosperity, the foundation is deep, and the people's hearts have already belonged to them. No one has ever thought of restoration, the number of days between dynasties changes, Prince Xie is the heir of Bai Yu, he should understand this truth, some things are not yours, no matter how much you force them, they are still not yours."

"I know the reason behind it."

Xie Jingchen replied earnestly: "Little Zhizhi, your husband is so talented. If he ascends to the high position in the future, he will definitely be the master of the world who can follow the two great emperors of your country, Jiande and Qinzong. I have nothing else to ask for in this life." , even if my father passed on to me after a hundred years, I just hope that I can protect the country and the people, and prevent my people in Baiyu from suffering from the war again."

After a pause, he continued: "I know the empress dowager's painstaking efforts in entrusting you to **** me to the south. I will definitely persuade my father to stop the war and truce. I also know that relying on your country's southern navy is not enough to defeat King Qinghe. I am willing to send troops to help, and only hope that there will be no more wars between the two countries after the great cause of your husband is established."

"With the words of thanking the prince, it is not in vain for me to risk my life to bring you out of Jingling City."

Chu Nanzhi smiled and said: "If that day really comes, I will definitely persuade my poor husband to make good friends with your country forever."

The Dahe Empire has experienced the torment of the factional struggles between the two dynasties, and has long since left nothing but empty air. She also knows that the empire can no longer make enemies everywhere, and the only way to recuperate is the best policy.

Now that Xie Jingchen has a strong desire to survive, Chu Nanzhi has more confidence in escorting him out of the country.

Leading Sang Qi to go out, Xie Jingchen's heavy voice suddenly sounded behind him again: "Little Zhizhi, you must promise me that no matter what dangers you encounter in the future, you will never risk yourself again."

"understood."

Chu Nanzhi turned her head and smiled at him indifferently, then hurried out of the elegant room.
