Jiaohua

Chapter 888 Parting ways (update 6.18)

Li Xiao has always been at odds with the Li Qian Dynasty. First, he tried to cut off Zhao Zhi's food and supplies in Peifeng, trying to force Zhao Yuan to abandon the city and leave.

Furthermore, thousands of crows flew together on Chongtiantai, which really ruined the matter of Emperor Xuanyan offering sacrifices to heaven.

The major event of the country is the sacrificial offerings and the military affairs. The matter of destroying a dynasty is no longer as simple as chaos, but also wanting its subjugation.

But after a few years, Li Xiao is with Mu Tingyu and Qian Yuandeng again, which is interesting.

The purpose of Xia Zhaoyi's trip south this time was to run towards Li Gan, and it was not a bad thing to meet Li Gan so soon.

This was also the reason why she wanted to follow Cai He and temporarily separate from Xia Jiajun.

If you follow Cai He, you can follow Li Xiao, and Xia Zhaoyi, who is so important to Cai He, is now also interested.

"Second Miss," Guan Chi said, "I also found out that a mysterious soldier is in Liujing Mansion."

"Soldiers and horses?" Song Qingtang became interested when he heard these two words.

"It should be that Li Xiao's army came here not long after he left, no less than 1000 people. According to inquiries, the military uniforms are different, and Li Xiao should not be the same person."

"This Panzhou is really lively." Song Qingtang looked at Xia Zhaoyi.

"Next year's spring will be even more lively," Xia Zhaoyi said.

"Next year's spring?" Song Qingtang was curious, "Ali, what news have you got?"

Xia Zhaoyi paused, then turned to look at him: "When I met you in Panyun Road, there was someone beside you, remember?"

Song Qingtang frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Qin Sanlang."

In July of the Gengyin year, Qin Xing, the father of Qin Sanlang and the envoy of Jiannan and Lingnan Jiedu, was shot to death by random arrows from the former rebel general Zhang Linghui.

Afterwards, Zhang Linghui brought Jiannan Dao and Lingnan Dao together to seek refuge with Song Zhiyi.

But it is a pity that the fertile land of Jiannan Road and Lingnan Road is separated from Song Zhiyi in the north by several large states and provinces with a radius of hundreds of miles.

Among them, the Jiangnan barracks had the greatest power, followed by Tian Dayao and Yun Bozhong, Song Zhiyi had almost nothing to do with it.

Whether it's Zhang Linghui or Song Zhiyi, they want to win Panzhou more than anyone else, and open up the north and the south bit by bit.

Xia Zhaoyi said indifferently: "Lin Yao is dead, and the owner of the seal is dead. Jiao Jinhu will definitely go south to seize the seal. Although Li Xiao's army went to the seal through Liujing Mansion, it will not be announced to the world, but the world will know sooner or later. Song Zhiyi will soon know about me, me appearing in Peifeng. It is inevitable that Peifeng will return to the eyes of the world. With Panzhou's strategic position in Song Zhiyi's heart, he won't be able to sit still at the beginning of spring next year."

"It's really lively. Zhuang Mengyao will definitely protect Panzhou to the death. Panzhou has a large area and a lot of people, and it has a lot of taxes and profits. It's a big piece of fat." Song Qingtang said.

"Do you have any news about Qin Jun?" Xia Zhaoyi changed the subject.

Song Qingtang nodded, and said uncomfortably: "Yes, but they have parted ways."

"Part ways?"

"He is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and I have become a big conspiracy."

After a while of silence, Xia Zhaoyi said, "He is in Hejing now."

"Well, the dead men beside Qin Xing sent him along with his mother and brother," Song Qingtang said with a sneer, and looked at the clear river in the distance, "I am a wanted criminal. Tianrongwei hangs ten thousand gold and wants my head. He is well aware of my situation, but he sent a letter after another, asking me to surrender."

"Let's not talk about that," Xia Zhaoyi said in a gentle voice, "Since the way is different, then we won't conspire with each other."

"Then, you didn't want to ask." Song Qingtang said.

Xia Zhaoyi bent his lips and looked at Li Man and Guan Chi.

Song Qingtang's eyes followed her, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw his personal attendant, Kai Boxuan, waving at him.

So Song Qingtang walked away.

Kui Baixuan pulled him to the side, and whispered: "General, you are too straightforward, which girl likes you to talk about her like that."

"How?"

"Conversely, accuse."

Seeing Song Qingtang's upright expression, Kai Baixuan said again: "General, you might as well think about it, what would happen to the Shen Langjun you mentioned to us before."

Song Qingtang suddenly raised his eyebrows.

"Yes," Kai Baixuan hurriedly said, "Think about it, what would he say and do?"

Song Qingtang thought for a while, and the more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, he hummed, and turned back to Xia Zhaoyi's side.

In addition to the inn where Master Zhi lived, and the mysterious soldiers and horses in Liujing Mansion, Li Man and Guan Chi also inquired about the whereabouts of soldiers and horses from various forces in the teahouse.

For example, Tian Dayao's Northern Army arrived in Liuzhou, and the Southern Route Army was in Shunli Mountain.

And the Yannan army in Yunbozhong is conducting a winter military exercise in Menzhi.

After they finished speaking, Xia Zhaoyi asked them to rest first, and she turned to two of the soldiers who had just fought with her, one was Tian Ye and the other was Chen Dingshan.

The soldiers and horses of Liujing Mansion had to be careful, she needed them to set off immediately and go to Liujing Mansion to inquire.

Then Fan Yu and Liang Dechang were ordered to go to the city to inquire about all matters related to Master Zhi.

What Li Man and Guan Chi found out was that this master Zhi had only come to Shoushi not long ago, but he was already well-known in Shoushi shopping mall.

Due to time constraints, they were unable to investigate in detail.

After Fan Yu and Liang Dechang also took orders to leave, Xia Zhaoyi turned around and looked at Song Qingtang beside him.

"I'm going to Shoushi too, how about you?" Xia Zhaoyi said.

"When are you going?"

"Afternoon."

"Oh..." Song Qingtang nodded.

Seeing that he was silent, Xia Zhaoyi said again: "Although the honorable merchants who travel north and south will bring guards and thugs, our group is more eye-catching than them, and the temperament of those thugs is far from that of soldiers on the battlefield. Therefore, we should not stay for a long time in any inn where we stay."

"I know." Song Qingtang said sullenly.

He considers himself not a person who has any worries about leaving the capital. When Cao Shi sent him off when he joined the army and left the capital, he didn't feel the slightest bit of tears and snot.

But right now, he just couldn't bear to leave.

"Military affairs are important," Xia Zhaoyi said again, "You should rest last night and recharge your energy. You should leave this morning."

"You, don't chase me away." Song Qingtang looked to the other side.

"I chase you?"

"I can tell the difference between the serious and the serious." Song Qingtang said, he was really annoyed in his heart, and it was himself, how could he become so awkward.

After a while of silence, Song Qingtang looked back at Xia Zhaoyi, and found that she was looking at him without saying a word, her eyes were clear and clean.

"What are you looking at me for?" Song Qingtang said.

Xia Zhaoyi blinked: "No, I'm waiting for you to tell me when to leave..."

Song Qingtang took a deep breath: "Ali, do you think I'm a bit of a bitch?"

"Girls?"

"Um……"

"It's funny," Xia Zhaoyi's expression remained unchanged, "Praise others to use a man, and self-deprecation use a woman."

"No, I didn't mean that! I was..."

"Then be like me, leave in the afternoon," Xia Zhaoyi interrupted him, "Military affairs are the top priority, don't neglect. You have been in the army for many years and know better than me."

Song Qingtang seemed to calm down suddenly, and looked at her depressedly.

Kui Baixuan sighed softly at the side.

As far as his own general is concerned, he would rather believe that the sun sets from the east than that he can win Miss Ali's heart.
