After fleeing famine, I rely on space to raise cubs

Chapter 93 Ghosts
"Since ancient times, if you fail in a battle, either your own people are really incompetent, or the opponent is too strong. Your father's strength is unquestionable, so you can't use these two points. The only thing is that someone wants to take the opportunity to kill your father."

Su Qing and Song Zhi did not leave with Liang Jingrui and the others. The city gate was closed. They walked up the hill from the south of the city gate and walked slowly to Yanzhou in the southwest.

Su Qing picked up a branch and played with it in his hand, "But a general of a country, when the two countries were fighting, suddenly got dizzy by the strategy, which means that the person who said the strategy must be your father's most trusted person." People around you."

Song Zhi bowed his head and lifted the stone under his feet. The reason why Hangu Pass is called a pass is because two places are natural barriers, one is a mountain depression, and the other side of Hangu Pass, about 20 kilometers away, is the junction of the Three Kingdoms. This place is called Luguan Road, on this road, merchants from the three countries can pass through, but because Gulong Town is inside Daliang, and it is not far from Hangu Pass, so merchants from other two countries must go through Luguan Road if they want to go on Luguan Road. Take out the customs clearance documents.

And Lu Guandao is the only place where businessmen from the two countries can enter through the border, because people who enter from here usually go to Gulong Town, and Gulong Town is also a commercial and trade area that the Dirong people have always wanted.

Su Qing and Song Zhi went to a high place and looked at Yanzhou in the southwest. Song Zhi clenched his teeth, and his expression changed, making Su Qing a little worried, "Are you okay?"

Song Zhi stretched out his hand and pointed to a road below, "Look, that is Yanzhou, the cliffs on both sides are lush, I don't know if the dead souls support them, and the number of jasper clusters reminds us how wronged they died. "

Song Zhi covered his eyes with one hand, and the veins on his neck were bulging, "Five years ago, my father was already appointed a general by the emperor. At that time, Liang Guo was sandwiched between the Dirong tribe and Youzhou country, and life was not easy. The emperor was on the throne at that time. Not very stable, because his younger brother Qin Wang rebelled, and the situation in the court was very tense at that time. Qin Wang asked his father before the rebellion, but his father did not agree. After he refused Qin Wang, he sent me to the old house of the Song family, which is a place outside Liyang City. A place called Peng Ze, and even though I grew up in the army, my father didn’t let me enter the barracks, he said that there was already someone in the Song family who fought bloody battles, and he didn’t want me to live like this.”

No wonder, although Song Zhi knew that 5 people died, he had no personal experience, and what he and others knew was just a number.

People are all the same, there is no such thing as empathy, only rippling emotions.

Seeing Song Zhi's actions, Su Qing felt a little sour in her heart. She gently pulled Song Zhi's sleeve, and Song Zhi held Su Qing's hand in his palm with his backhand. As if he had gained strength, he said again, "I'm not in the military camp. I have a job, and I grew up with the prince, so everyone in the court knows that my father wants me to be an ordinary person. Even the position given by the emperor was rejected by my father. He just said that I should be a book boy next to the prince. .”

"It was also because of my father's operation that I survived when the Song family was killed."

Song Zhi slowly raised Su Qing's hand and kissed her finger lightly. He was distraught, General Song protected his only son.

Su Qing didn't dodge. The two of them haven't been together much since they came here. She approached Song Zhi and said softly, "How did King Qin die?"

Song Zhihong's eyes were red, and he whispered: "The emperor wants to investigate the salt tax in the Hexi area. The King of Qin has been in charge of the Hexi area. The emperor asked him to investigate first, but he was killed when he arrived in Xu County in Hexi. After the investigation, it was found that It was assassinated by the assassins of Youzhou Kingdom, because the prince died, and the appearance of his death was really bad, so the emperor kept it secret and treated the family of King Qin generously. The palace is closed, and I haven't come out for two months."

Su Qing wondered: "What does it mean that the death looks bad?"

Song Zhi looked at her, it was already dark, the autumn wind was blowing on her body, Su Qing's hair was flying in the air, Song Zhi raised his hand and put the hair on Su Qing's face behind him, "He died in a brothel, and because of He refused to give money, and was humiliated by the bustard on the spot, and then he declared himself, and died in the room within a quarter of an hour."

When Su Qing heard this, he felt that the reason was far-fetched, "Don't you think it's strange, a majestic lord, that you don't pay money when you go to a brothel? What's more, the emperor wants to check the salt tax. He should have sent one of his own people, or went to check it with the king of Qin. Why did the King of Qin ask himself to investigate? What is the meaning of this?"

Song Zhi shook his head, because it had rained, the air was full of the fragrance of soil, and they were standing on a high place, and they could still see the lights of Gulong Town flickering, Song Zhi seemed to be in a much calmer mood, "I know what you are doubting , I feel the same way, but in the past five years, I have never investigated it, and I can only live in dormancy and hide myself deeply."

Su Qing looked at Song Zhi, and he held a hand in his palm, which felt a little warm, "Isn't Xu County the place where we landed? We are familiar with the documents there. Just inquire about the situation back then. King Qin died because of you." After father?"

Song Zhi looked at her suspiciously, "Why are you so interested in King Qin? King Qin died within two months of my father's death."

A very bold idea crossed Su Qing's mind, maybe the deaths of King Qin and General Song were involved.

But this kind of thinking is just speculation, and there is no evidence to speak freely. She was silent for a moment, and said: "The prince will definitely report to the emperor, saying that you have made great contributions to this incident, but the emperor is definitely worried about you. I think we should still To investigate King Qin's death, it's best to curry favor with the Empress Dowager, let the Empress Dowager come forward and give you a decent job, not by the prince's side, otherwise you won't be able to investigate the cause of your father's death."

Song Zhi licked his lips, "What do you mean?"

"What I mean is, the prince is good, but your investigation of General Song's affairs will definitely bring trouble to the prince. It's better for you to get away from him. First, you can be closer to the emperor, but you can let the queen mother speak for you. Of course, no matter who it is, you have only one purpose, to find out the truth, to rehabilitate the Song family, to save your aunt, and not to let her suffer in the cold palace, and the Queen Mother has the final say on everything in the harem, do you understand?"

Song Zhi stared straight at Su Qing, just when Su Qing thought that he would not accept his opinion, Song Zhi suddenly hugged Su Qing into his arms, Song Zhi's slightly cold lips brushed against Su Qing's ear, Su Qing She was trembling all over, and her face was hot.

"Qing'er, if you let me attack Lin Shaoqun, I will know what you are planning. You are really my lucky star, and I will listen to you."
