Chapter 323
Two days have passed, Chujiang City has been sealed off, and the entire city is as fortified as an iron pass. No news about Chujiang City can be heard from outside, and no news from inside the city can spread outside. Pei Zhengkai is waiting outside. , his complexion is getting gloomy day by day, and he blames himself more.

"How can the defense of the Chujiang Tower be so tight that there is no omission." At this time, Ziying tried to use various methods to enter the city, or to send messages, but was intercepted halfway. down.

Pei Zhengkai squinted his eyes, and his long and narrow eyes looked like a fox at this time, but there was no smile in his eyes, and he said lightly: "The defense layout of this tower was all made by Chu Wan back then. Yi personally designed and arranged the layout. Chu Wanyi was a genius in the military. Even after hundreds of years, the Chu River was easy to defend and difficult to attack in troubled times. Xanadu, it can be seen that this person's ability..."

Speaking of this Chu Wanyi, he is also a well-known general. At that time, the Ji family dynasty was in decline, and the princes from all walks of life rose up. He has done nothing on the battlefield, but he relied on his genius to keep the people of Chujiang from being devastated by the flames of war in the troubled times. This is a man worthy of great respect.

Afterwards, the four countries divided the world equally, and Chu Jiang originally belonged to the territory of Xi Country. Even though Chu Wanyi was a genius, he was an unambitious person.After the troubled times ended, the imperial court issued an imperial edict to Chujiang. Chu Wanyi did not want to establish himself as king, so he accepted the imperial court's imperial edict. The imperial court withdrew the title of city lord and named Chu Wanyi the Marquis of Chu'an, a hereditary title.

The current Chu family is the descendant of Chu Wanyi, because the current queen mother is from the Chu family, so the title of Chu Anhou was changed to Chu Lingong during Emperor Zhao's time.

Even though hundreds of years have passed, and the Chu family of Chu Jiang was proclaimed the Duke of the State, their military arrangements still follow the formation and inspection methods used by Chu Wanyi back then. Chu Wanyi was famous for his "defense" In the world, the method used to prevent spies from entering the city now prevents them from getting close to the Chu River.

Ziying's heart sank when she saw Pei Zhengkai say that.At that time, the lady was in their hands, and their every move was monitored by the other party, and they didn't even know who the enemy was.One is in the open and the other is in the dark, no one dares to bet on the safety of the young lady, first quit Chujiang according to the other party's wishes, and then make plans.

But what I didn't expect was that once they quit, Chujiang would be sealed off, and their original plan would not work at all.

What a shrewd person Pei Zhengkai was. Who else could seal the city in Chujiang except Chu Lingong? Chu Linggong was seriously ill, and Chu Qianyin was the one who made the decision.Back then, he had heard about the rift between Chu Qianyin and Xiao Que, so he naturally thought that it should be Chu Qianyin who captured Yun Shu, and the reason why Yun Shu was arrested was not because Yun Shu offended someone, but because of Xiao Que. !
At this moment, Pei Zhengkai was no longer thinking about how to blame Xiao Que, but was thinking about something that he hadn't figured out until now—how their plan leaked out.

Originally according to Pei Zhengkai's plan, Fu Yunshu was going to leave the city on the night when he was taken away.In order to fear that Xiao Que would block him, all the suspicions were temporarily set off to return to Ningzhou in three days, and only a few of his cronies knew about his plan.However, taking the note passed by the person who kidnapped Fu Yunshu one day, it said "Leave the city according to the original plan", which means that the other party has a clear insight into their plan.

Was there a spy among them?Those who knew the original plan were all his cronies who had followed him for many years. He didn't want to doubt any of them, but the facts were in front of him, so he had to think about it.

Seeing that Pei Zhengkai remained silent for a long time, Zi Ying couldn't help reminding Pei Zhengkai: "Second Master..."

Pei Zhengkai recovered from his thoughts and asked, "Is there anything else..."

Ziying handed something to Pei Zhengkai, and said: "Brothers couldn't go to the city to find Miss, so they followed the clues left by Qingying and found this in the lower reaches of the Chu River..."

Fu Yunshu disappeared in Chujiang City, and the entire Chujiang River was sealed off, so it was impossible to enter the city to check for news.The clues left by Qingying were broken from Lanxi. After all, they are subordinates who have been with him for many years and love brothers, so Pei Zhengkai ordered people to find Qingying in the direction from the lower reaches of Lanxi to the Chu River.Even though he knew that the possibility of finding Qingying was slim, Pei Zhengkai didn't want to give up any possibility.

Originally, when he saw the bloody token in Ziying's hand, Pei Zhengkai knew that according to the other party's cautious approach, it would be bad luck if Qingying fell into their hands, but seeing the bloody token in Ziying's hand Suddenly, the veins on Pei Zhengkai's forehead twitched involuntarily.

Every hidden guard of the Pei family has these tokens, just because they are afraid that something will happen during the mission, and the brothers below will not be able to find the bones.As long as a person is alive, the token cannot leave the body no matter what.

These hidden guards were originally cultivated by Pei Zhengxuan. When he picked a few dark guards to bring with him, he heard the rules of the dark guards and said with a smile: "The dark guards who follow me don't follow you on the battlefield. It is also necessary to be ready to fight desperately at all times, it is very safe, where are these things needed.”

At that time, Qingying was deliberately selected by him from the military camp. His father and elder brother all died in battle, and he was the only one in the family, and he was very capable.

He was afraid that he would make some mistakes on the battlefield, so he brought him by his side, and he would not let him carry out anything dangerous.Unexpectedly... When Pei Zhengkai saw this token, he was very angry and angry!
"On the bank of the river, I also found this bloody coat. Please Yunniang recognize it..." Ziying's heart is not so easy, they are brothers who were born and died together, and their feelings are naturally extraordinary.When his subordinates brought Qingying's token back, his eye circles were red.

Yunniang looked at the coat, the crow-blue coat was soaked in blood and almost couldn't see the original color, Yunniang just glanced at it and then turned her head and dared not look again, her face was pale and her voice trembled and said: "This It is the coat of the sea..."

Cang Hai and Qing Ying went out with Fu Yunshu, and now the two of them are already in danger.

The stone room was lit like beans, and Jin Nu's eyes fell on a painting hanging on the wall. With an emotion in his eyes that Fu Yunshu couldn't understand, he said slowly: "My father is the chief secretary of the county government. The family is poor, and like many depressed scholars, she looks ordinary, stubborn, and arrogant. But my mother is different. She is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. She likes to sing, laugh, and make friends. I often think How could such a beautiful woman like my mother fall in love with such an ordinary father."

Back then, Xie Sanniang was famous in the Chujiang River, and the children of the Jianghu had a heroic and heroic spirit that is rare in men. Even Gu Rui, who had a haughty personality, became a confidant with her. It can be seen that she is also a legendary beauty of a generation.But whether it was from Lin Xueluo or Jinnu, what he heard was that He Wenyuan was just a well-established scholar who had become a master book in the county government.

He doesn't have a handsome appearance like the scholar in Huaben, but he can read some characters, and he doesn't know such things as poetry and songs.Why did Xie Sanniang, who was sought after by thousands of people back then, willingly fold her wings because of such an ordinary scholar, and have children without him washing her hands and making soup?
Fu Yunshu is not without doubts. Hearing what Jinnu said, what was the last reason for Xie Sanniang to marry He Wenyuan back then?Fu Yunshu's eyes fell on the portrait of Gu Rui on the wall. Jin Nu's age was only 20 years old, so it couldn't be due to such bloody reasons...

"Father is stubborn and stubborn. He has a cold face to others, but he is very kind to me. He likes to smile at me the most. Every time he comes back from the county office, he will bring me fun and delicious food. He is very kind to my mother. Although the family is not considered rich, but my mother and I suffered a lot. At that time, I was thinking that my father and mother should be the most loving couple in the world, two people who don’t seem to match at all on the outside , but my mother was willing to wash her hands and make soup for my father, restraining her demeanor; my father was cold and arrogant, but married the mother of the children of the rivers and lakes, treating her like a treasure. At that time, I was thinking, my life should be like my father in the future Like my mother. It seems that she is not a good match, but she is extremely loving and respectful." Perhaps thinking of the past, Fu Yunshu's expression on Jin Nu's face softened a bit.

What Jin Nu said was all the details of Xie Sanniang and He Wenyuan's relationship back then, and had nothing to do with Gu Rui back then.So far, Fu Yunshu can't hear any changes.Growing up in such a beautiful family environment, why did Jin Nuhui become the character he is today.

"But..." Jin Nu's voice suddenly became sharp, and Fu Yunshu was startled by being so eye-catching in such a quiet stone room.

"All the good things were broken six years ago. My father was imprisoned in the county government because of his involvement in the county magistrate's bribery case. My mother went around looking for a way to rescue my father, but there was no way out. Finally, after the case was heard, Both father and mother were imprisoned, and the He family was convicted. It is obvious that the county magistrate took bribes, and his father was just a small chief bookkeeper in the county government. He should not be punished so severely. The official who took bribes from the county magistrate, admired my mother back then, but was rejected by my mother, and has always held a grudge, and dealt with our He family for the sake of personal gain." When Jin Nu said this, his voice was a bit sad.

"He is the third-rank governor of the imperial court. My father is just a small chief bookkeeper in the county government. Even if he knows that his father has been wronged, who dares to say that he is acting for his own sake? My mother was famous back then. How many princes and grandchildren wanted to listen to her? Qu Er spends a lot of money, even Mr. Gu Rui back then considered her confidant, when the governor who decided her life and death was rejected by her back then, I'm afraid he has already forgotten his appearance." Jin Nu suddenly smiled , looked at Fu Yunshu and said: "This is the benefit of power. What kind of love and affection between husband and wife are so vulnerable in the face of power. My father was aloof and self-proclaimed all his life, but in the end he was defeated by power , can't even protect his wife and daughter..."

Looking at Jin Nu's appearance, Fu Yunshu moved his lips, and seemed to say clearly: "So, you would rather follow Chu Qianyin anonymously than Lin Xueluo. Is such a ridiculous reason?"

Jin Nu looked at Fu Yunshu and said with a sneer, "How can a young lady who was born noble and grew up in the Zanying family understand the pain of being oppressed by power. As your mother, in order to protect you in exchange for your life, she devoted herself to When you watched your father be beheaded, and there was no one to collect the body; when you were in your prime, but became a plaything to be played by all kinds of men, you Understand the benefits of power."
