Chapter 229

Yinger and Fan Qianya's maids also became familiar. After the two came out, they stood by each other at the beginning, and slowly came together and chatted, waiting for the news inside, and Fan Qianya didn't know what to say to Yue Xiuxian. What's the matter? The two seemed to have been talking for a long time. Yinger and Fan Qianya's girl had been waiting for so long that they forgot how long they had been waiting. Finally, when their conversation was over, Fan Qianya came out slowly. One point may be true or false, and Yue Xiuxian came to the door to see her off.

"Old Madam, what did Madam Jing tell you?" Ying Er waited for Fan Qianya to leave before walking up to Yue Xiuxian, and asked her softly.

"It's nothing." Yue Xiuxian shook her head, turned her head and entered the room. Looking at her, Ying'er felt that she was hiding something from her, because she saw that her face was a little strange, and there were tears on her face, but she was the master. It's just a little maid, she didn't say anything, and she didn't dare to ask more.

"Ying Er, is Wan'er related to Li'er's death?" Yue Xiuxian asked Ying Er suddenly after returning to the room.

Hearing her question, Yinger was very surprised, and after a long time she lowered her head and said, "I heard that Madam missed it."

In fact, what Yinger heard was that Waner poisoned Dongfang Lier and her child to death because of jealousy, but she didn't dare to tell Yue Xiuxian the truth.

"I see, Yinger, go get busy, I want to take a break." Yue Xiuxian didn't ask any more questions, but pushed Yinger away, and walked into the room with heavy steps.

A few days passed in the blink of an eye, Yue Xiuxian didn't talk much for a few days, but there was no other abnormality, Yinger didn't take it seriously, and it seemed to be over.

In the palace, however, Ji Yu was troubled again. It was the incident at the southern border, which caused him a lot of headaches. It was unlikely that Ji Ling would continue to go on the expedition now. Yu Yue went there for two months. It’s pretty good, the enemy army lost a lot of soldiers, but because the fighting was an old injury, it was forced to stop and return to the court to recuperate. In this way, the frontier garrison will lose the leader again, and the enemy will take the opportunity to fight again. Calling, this made Ji Yu very troubled.

"General Yu, how is your health?" Ji Yu brought this matter up in the early days. After all, there are only a few generals here. Zheng Sixi's father has long since resigned and returned home to take care of himself. After all, he is really quite old. It's not small, and Zheng Sixi is Ji Ling's general, and Ji Ling won't move if he doesn't speak.

"The old minister's old injury has recurred, I'm afraid I won't be able to share the emperor's worries." Yu Yue looked guilty, and looked back at Ji Yu's words with his head down.

"However, the old minister can recommend someone for the emperor. He is brave and good at fighting. The old minister has seen him fight a while ago. He is very brave. He is also familiar with military books and has a good understanding of leading the army." Yu Yue told Ji Yu the one he wanted to recommend. Man, what he said was so brave that Ji Yu had no reason not to believe it.

"Oh, I don't know who General Yu is talking about?" Ji Yu didn't think there was such a person in this dynasty, he didn't know.

"It's Zhou Qianwu's son, Zhou Xian, the emperor. In fact, the previous affairs of the Zhou family are not very clear. Of course, the old minister is not saying that they have been wronged. He just thinks that Zhou Xian is very repentant. He also contributed a lot in this frontier battle. If he succeeds in repelling the enemy at the border this time, the emperor wonders if his family's crimes can be spared?" Yu Yue said his name, which really surprised many people in the hall, but Yu Yue didn't care about the eyes around him, and helped Zhou Xian begged for mercy.

"Since he is recommended by General Yu, I will give him a chance. If he succeeds in repelling the enemy at the border, I will not only forgive his family, but also make him a great general. If he fails, then he will be punished even more. "Ji Yu didn't think much about it, so he agreed to Yu Yue's recommendation, because there is really a lack of generals in the court, and Ji Yu is also a benevolent monarch, thinking that he can give people a chance, but he still doesn't want to kill them all.

However, Ji Yu's decision still met with opposition from many people, and they argued with each other, but in the end they still failed to overturn Ji Yu's decision, and everything was settled like this.

In the barracks at the border, two people were sitting around chatting and drinking.

"Pioneer has done a lot of meritorious service at the frontier this time. I believe my father will recommend you to the emperor and promote Pioneer to lead the army." There was a man in his twenties and thirties with a dark complexion, thick eyebrows and a square face. He looked a little like Yu Yue. very similar.

"Whether there is a chance to return to the imperial city this time, it will all depend on the help of General Yu and his son." A man with a white complexion and a slightly thin body, but a pair of dark eyes gleamed with a cold light. The man replied to the man, this fair and clean man, upon closer inspection, he knew that it was undoubtedly Zhou Xian.

"Pioneer don't worry, my father and I will do our best to help you, but the final result depends on the emperor's will." Yu Qiao, a square-faced man, took a sip of his wine suddenly, then raised his head and said.

Yu Qiaoran is none other than Yu Yue's eldest son, Yu Qiaoyan Fang's elder brother, but he loves to kill, almost all year round on the frontier battlefield, since he left the imperial city at the age of 15, he seldom returns to the imperial city, so there are few people in the imperial city know.

"That's, that's, Zhou is not the kind of person who doesn't understand things. General Yu, don't worry." Zhou Xian said to Yu Qiaoran with a smile.

"Yeah." Yu Qiaoran nodded slightly, paused for a while, and seemed to think of something, raised her head and said: "The emperor should adopt father's suggestion this time, because King Ling is not in the mood to go out."

"Oh, why?" Zhou Xian looked up at Yu Qiaoran in puzzlement and asked.

"Because King Ling's fourth wife passed away in dystocia, and the youngest son was not kept, so King Ling is very sad." Yu Qiaoran raised her head and replied calmly, but her eyes were aimed at Zhou Xian intentionally or unintentionally.

"What, how did this happen?" Zhou Xian was very surprised when he heard the news, and stood up out of control, but soon he realized that he had lost his composure, and quickly sat down and explained: "Fourth Madam Ling Wang He is a very nice person, I didn't expect to encounter such a thing, but there are not many doctors with superb medical skills in Ling Wang's mansion, and the medical skills of Ling Wang's eldest wife are unmatched, how could such a thing happen ?”

"The bad thing about this matter is that Mrs. Ling Wang acted. I heard that the fourth lady had a son. The lady was jealous, so she poisoned the mother and son to death." Distorted the facts, and deliberately said that it was Wan'er who poisoned her.

However, he, the speaker, spoke calmly, but Zhou Xian, the listener, already had ups and downs in his heart, and his fists were already clenched tightly, but he still tried his best to pretend to be disapproving, but there were still people in the camp. It's not easy for him to get angry when outsiders are present. Although no one else has made a sound, but what he wants to say now, when they help him spread the word, they will make a sound, so if you can bear it, you have to bear it .

"This kind of human relationship is really weak. A sister is not worth a love, and a sister can kill her. The viciousness of this kind of woman is hard to compare with words." Yu Qiaoran naturally saw Zhou Xian's uneasiness , but deliberately pretended not to see it, and continued to gossip.

"Aren't all people the same? Selfishness, who would think of others when it's critical?" Zhou Xian slowed down for a while, his emotions stabilized, and he spoke in a calm tone.

"What Pioneer said is very true." The people next to him also echoed.

Yu Qiaoran also raised her head and smiled slightly, and then continued: "Yes, back then, Dongfang Lier, the fourth wife of Ling Wang, didn't wantonly slander the reputation of Ling Wang's wife in order to marry Ling Wang? So she also It's not wrong to die, is it?"

"Okay, that's enough, don't discuss any more." Zhou Xian finally reached his limit, stood up at once, and shouted angrily.
