The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 417 Divorce Part 2
After this battle, almost all the [-] Huns were destroyed, leaving only a few thousand troops.

After Li Ling ordered Baha to be taken into the big tent, he was ordered to be untied. Baha knew that the situation was over, so he simply put on a fearless appearance, and said sharply to Li Ling, "It's only my fault that Baha was careless for a while. I have fallen into your tricks time and time again, and I will kill you or kill you at will."

Li Ling smiled lightly, and replied: "If my commander wanted to kill you, he would have killed you long ago. Why wait until today."

Li Ling has let him off twice, and Baha has been very puzzled by Li Ling's actions. He looked at Li Ling and asked, "You are the most scheming person. Now, can you tell me clearly why you are here? Let me go again and again."

Li Ling replied: "The first time I let you go, I respect the eldest prince as a good man, and I can't bear to kill him. The second time I let you go, it's because I can't bear to let you suffer from a villain."

Hearing this, Baha frowned into a big pimple. His surprise attack on Li Ling's granary was just a whim, but it didn't happen. Painting Hun'er, now hearing what Li Ling said, he hurriedly asked: "But there is a traitor who informs me? Now that the matter is up to now, please Li Shuai tell me the details, so that even if I die, I will be a sensible ghost."

Li Ling smiled faintly again, and replied: "The informer is naturally the one who yearns for your death the most. Although I, Li Ling, hate such an insidious person the most in my life, since he helped me, I can't betray him. "

He looked at Baja and continued: "You are at the end of the day now. In order to ease the conflict between Da Qi and the Huns, I don't have to kill you, the prince, but you have to promise that you will never offend Da Qi again."

Baha would naturally agree, and Li Ling ordered someone to send him out of the camp.

Baha left the Qi army camp this time, but he had mixed feelings in his heart. Li Ling's words had planted the seeds of hatred in his heart.

The people in this world who are looking forward to his death the most are the old Shanyu's Xubu of Yanshi and his half-brother Xie Ha.

Baja returned to the camp to tidy up the remnants of the tribe and headed back to the camp of the king of the Xiongnu overnight. When the remnant army was a hundred miles away from the imperial city, Baha's confidants in the royal city came to tell them that the old Shanyu had listened. Xu Bu's slander suspected that Baha and Daqi were in collusion to seek the throne.

When Baha heard this, he was so angry that he took the remaining troops and went directly to the Yizhi tribe, the mother clan who supported him.

The prairie chaos that was originally unified by the old Shan Yutong has turned into a situation where you compete and kill each other. Naturally, there is no time to disturb Da Qi. So far, the northern border of Da Qi has finally achieved peace.

Li Ling repelled the Xiongnu and led his army back in triumph.

The autumn is crisp, and the ripe crops are golden. Outside the long pavilion, a young man is leading the Mahou on the only way for the army.

This person was none other than Zhou Jin, the eldest son of the Zhongshun Marquis Mansion who was exiled to northern Xinjiang because of the crime of resisting the decree.

Back then, the young man in fresh clothes and angry horse from a famous family in Beijing had been blown into a vigorous young man by the harsh wind and sand in northern Xinjiang. Seeing that it was Zhou Jin, Li Ling quickly got off his horse, and the two entered the pavilion. Zhou Jin smiled and said: "The Xiongnu came here every now and then to fight the autumn wind. There has been no peace in northern Xinjiang for years. After this war, the north is finally at peace."

Zhou Jin is a very talented and ambitious person. Although he was dispatched to the northern border, he has been working hard all these years and is now a second-class defender in the northern border.

Li Ling looked at Zhou Jin, with mixed feelings in his heart, and replied: "After a few years of separation, my cousin has not buried himself in the end."

Zhou Jin smiled wryly and said, "I'm just going with the situation."

He was silent for a while, and finally asked: "Is everything okay in my family? Is everything okay in my cousin's house? Also, is my cousin okay now?"

Li Ling didn't know Zhou Jin's thoughts, he replied truthfully: "Everything is fine in your family, and Jin Yan is also fine, but she is not married yet."

When Zhou Jin heard this, a complicated look appeared on his face, and he muttered falteringly: "After all, I missed her."

Li Ling stretched out his hand and patted Zhou Jin's shoulder, and replied, "If you marry someone who is not human, it may not be that Jin Yan is living a happier life now. We all believe that you will return to Beijing one day."

The autumn sun was strong, and the golden sun shone on Zhou Jin's resolute face. The smile on his face was brighter than that of Qiu Yang.

Ever since Li Xian was convicted and imprisoned, the palace has been gloomy. Knowing that Li Ling returned triumphantly from fighting the Huns, the gloom hanging over the palace finally came to light.

When Li Xian was convicted, Xu Wanning was most worried, but within two or three months, she lost a lot of weight.

Knowing Li Ling's triumphant return, Jingshu and Pingyang went to Bitangju to relieve Xu Wanning. Li Ling is the backbone of the Duke's mansion, and once he comes back, Li Xian can at least have some hope in this matter.

Xu Wanning sent a few children out to play, and sighed at the two younger siblings: "I'm afraid this matter is not that simple, the uncle committed a serious crime of slandering the prince, such a punishment is considered light, even if the second younger brother I’m afraid there will be no room for change when I’m back.”

Jingshu and Pingyang naturally knew the seriousness of this matter, Pingyang sighed and said: "It's a pity that all the officials involved in the incident voted for King Jin, and none of them can say something fair for eldest brother."

Jing Shu said silently: "Thirty thousand innocent lives, I hate that the conscience of these people has really been fed to the dogs."

Xu Wanning replied with a wry smile when she heard the words: "I was good at martial arts in my boudoir. Although the uncle is a literati, I took a fancy to his integrity at the beginning. Hey! He can be so persistent in the face of big right and wrong. I was right about him."

Jing Shu nodded and said in agreement: "So among the civil servants, only the elder brother can be called Qingliu. I don't believe that the emperor has no idea."

Speaking of which, Emperor Ming was the uncle of Pingyang's direct relatives. Although he was not born in Beijing, he would stay with him in the palace every tribute year, so he knew a little about this emperor's uncle.

Ping Yang replied without hesitation: "Your Majesty is not a bad person, he just likes to be confused and cares about his shortcomings. Although he knows the innocence of his elder brother in his heart, I am afraid that in order to protect King Jin, he is willing to be confused."

Xu Wanning snorted coldly and said, "The emperor is stupid, hum! King Jin and the crown prince are not good birds. If you say something disrespectful behind closed doors, I will see Daqi's world as hopeless."

What Xu Wanning said was the truth, after Pingyang heard it, he said to Jingshu: "What sister-in-law said is true, people like us really need to think about the way out in the future, fortunately, the second brother is coming back, he is the one who decides everything , we can feel at ease after all.”

When Li Xian was questioned, it was impossible for the Duke of Zhen's government to maintain neutrality between the crown prince and King Jin. It was time to make a choice.

Jingshu naturally understood what Pingyang meant, and she replied: "This matter not only depends on the husband's will, but the mother's will is more important."
