What caught my eye was Xu Fengnian's extremely haggard face.
Especially those eyes with dark circles and bloodshot eyes are particularly eye-catching.
Before Ying Chen could speak, Xu Fengnian spoke anxiously.
"Please tell me the truth about my mother's death, who did it, and why."
"Xu Fengnian and Beiliang will never forget your great kindness, Master Yingchen!"
Seeing someone as proud as Xu Fengnian kneeling in front of him, waiting for an answer with pleading eyes.
Ying Chen sighed softly.
"Get up. Since I promised you, I will tell you."
Hearing this, Xu Fengnian stood up tremblingly and followed Ying Chen to the stone table in the yard.
Xu Fengnian's breathing became rapid as he was about to learn the truth about his mother's death.
He clenched his fists and stared at Ying Chen, refusing to look away for a moment.
"Who do you think is the biggest threat to the rise of Beiliang?"
Hearing Ying Chen's question, Xu Fengnian was confused at first, then frowned.
"Daqin, Beimang..."
But soon, Xu Fengnian hurriedly shook his head.
"Beimang is very powerful."
"Without Li Yang's full support, our Beiliang Iron Cavalry would have no way of destroying them. Even if we win, it will be a pyrrhic victory."
"And Daqin and Beiliang also share a border."
"But the terrain there is rugged and only suitable for small groups of troops to pass through, and it is difficult for a large army to pass through. In addition, the Qin army is famous throughout the world for its fierce and fierce troops."
"The entire Liyang Dynasty is helpless against the Qin Dynasty, so naturally they won't be afraid of us, Beiliang."
At this moment, Xu Fengnian suddenly thought of why he had to travel for three years, and what Zhao Huangchao, the ancestor of the Liyang royal family, did yesterday.
He spoke in a cold voice, saying decisively: "It's Li Yang!"
"It's Li Yang!"
Seeing Ying Chen's confirmation, Xu Fengnian could hardly conceal the murderous intent in his eyes, and gritted his teeth and said, "Could it be Li "400" Yang who did it?"
"But my father has fought for Li Yang for half his life and has never had the intention of rebelling. Why did Li Yang want to kill my mother?"
Looking at the "naive" Xu Fengnian in front of him, Ying Chen sneered.
“Does it matter whether your father is rebellious or not?”
"What's important is that your father has the ability to rebel, and that's a sin!"
At this moment, Xu Fengnian's face was filled with grief and indignation, and his eyes were full of disbelief.
Ying Chen ignored the anger in his eyes and continued speaking.
"The culprit who killed your mother Wu Su was Emperor Liyang."
"That year, Princess Wu Su suddenly became pregnant again, and the Imperial Observatory calculated in advance that it was a boy."
"Liyang can accommodate Xu Xiao, but it cannot tolerate him having an heir."
"And most importantly, the Imperial Astronomical Observatory calculated that the child is very likely the reincarnation of the Great Emperor Zhenwu, and the Yin Academy asserted that Beiliang controls the northwest. It is rumored that Zhenwu was born in Beiliang eight hundred years ago."
"If Liyang wants to unify the world, it must not allow Beiliang to become too powerful. It must be under control."
"Therefore, the Liyang royal family was very afraid of Princess Wu Su's child, so they decided to kill Wu Su and the child."
"Li Yang!"
Looking at Xu Fengnian, whose veins were bulging, eyes were bloodshot and full of hatred, and even his whole body was shaking with anger, and who was roaring in a low voice, Ying Chen nodded with satisfaction.
"This matter is actually not that complicated."
"In order to cut off the incense of the Xu family of Northern Liang King Xu Xiao, the old Liyang Emperor Zhao Chun was the mastermind, and the "Half-Inch Tongue" Yuan Benxi came up with the plan."
"When the Xu family's cavalry was only 300 miles away from the Western Chu imperial city, Xu Xiao received four urgent imperial edicts in one day, all of which were 800 miles away. He had no choice but to go to the capital to receive the reward."
"After Xu Xiao arrived in Kyoto, Yang Taisui, the "sick tiger" who had a close relationship with Xu Xiao, came forward and invited Xu Xiao to drink, but his purpose was to hold Xu Xiao back."
"Empress Zhao Zhize informed your mother Wu Su that Xu Xiao was in trouble in Tai'an City, the capital, and asked Wu Su to go to the capital alone."
"As for the result, you already know it."
"Your mother, Wu Su, became a land immortal and fought her way out of the siege by the shadow assassins hired by Li Yang. She also gave birth to you, Xu Fengnian."
"But unfortunately, she became ill from then on and passed away after giving birth to your brother Xu Longxiang."
"This is what I know. This is what happened. Believe it or not."
Xu Fengnian did not have any doubts, and they in Beiliang had also conducted some investigations over the years.
While listening to Ying Chen's story, he had already combined some clues he knew with what Ying Chen said to verify each other.
In an instant, the facts were so clear, and there was no contradiction between the beginning and the end.
"Liyang Royal Family, Zhao Family!!!"
Xu Fengnian could no longer hold back the grief and anger in his heart. He spat out a mouthful of blood and roared to the sky.
Hearing Xu Fengnian's roar in the courtyard, Jian Jiuhuang, the gap-toothed old servant outside the gate, seemed a little worried.
He quickly shouted into the courtyard: "Your Highness, are you okay?"
Hearing Lao Huang's concern, Xu Fengnian regained some of his sanity, suppressed his emotions, and shouted to the outside of the door: "Don't worry, Lao Huang."
"I'm fine, very fine. In the past ten years, I've never had such a clear goal as today!"
Xu Fengnian shouted word by word in a hoarse voice, and even blood oozed from his teeth because he was shouting too hard.
Then, Xu Fengnian knelt in front of Ying Chen again and kowtowed three times.
"Thank you, Master Ying Chen, for telling me the truth. Otherwise, my father and I would have been kept in the dark by the Zhao family for many more years!"
"As for the Liyang Dynasty, I will make them pay with their blood!"
Ying Chen looked indifferent, and then used an invisible internal force to help Xu Fengnian up.
"Don't be in a hurry to thank me. I'm telling you this without any conditions."
"I wonder if His Royal Highness still remembers what I said yesterday?"
A hint of doubt flashed across Xu Fengnian's eyes. He thought Ying Chen was joking with him yesterday.
"You mean, brother-in-law?"
Ying Chen nodded, "I heard that your elder sister Xu Zhihu is going to marry in Jiangnan, but she hasn't gone there yet?"
Hearing this, Xu Fengnian nodded.
"That's what happened."
"I should have married her a few years ago, but Liyang Jiangnan is adjacent to Qingzhou."
"And Emperor Kangxi of Qingzhou inexplicably liked Jiangnan, so he often sent troops to harass the Jiangnan border of Liyang."
"My father saw the chaos in Jiangnan and postponed the wedding for the time being."
"But recently, I heard that Liyang and Qingting seemed to have reached some kind of agreement. Now that things there are stable, my eldest sister should be ready to go to Jiangnan."
"Mr. Ying Chen, are you really going to marry my elder sister?"
In Ying Chen's heart, the person he likes the most is actually Xu Fengnian's second sister Xu Weixiong.
After all, Xu Weixiong's talent and the help he could provide to himself were incomparable to Xu Zhihu.
But a pity.
Xu Weixiong is not Xu Xiao's biological daughter. If Ying Chen wants to lead the Qin cavalry to take over Beiliang in the future, it will inevitably be unjustified.
Another point is that Ying Chen was really afraid that if Xu Weixiong married her, Xu Fengnian, who had lost Xu Weixiong's help, would not be able to withstand Li Yang's attack after Xu Xiao's death, and might even be destroyed before she could even get support.
Therefore, Ying Chen finally chose Xu Zhihu, who had not yet married to Jiangnan.
As for Xu Zhihu, is he the red robe that Hong Xixiang, the reincarnation of Lu Zu, has been looking for for hundreds of years?
No one can stand in his way, and Lu Zu is no exception!
"My request is that your elder sister marry me, and that Beiliang and Daqin form an alliance through marriage!"
"In the future, as long as you Beiliang need it, we Daqin will also provide you Beiliang with corresponding assistance, but the premise is that you Beiliang must break away from Liyang and be loyal to Daqin!"
Hearing Ying Chen's request, Xu Fengnian nodded and agreed without any hesitation.
It doesn’t matter whether Beiliang belongs to Liyang or Daqin. After all, Daqin is not a barbarian country, but also the orthodox Chinese country. Besides, Xu Fengnian only wants revenge now!
At the same time, he talked with Ying Chen and observed the maid beside Ying Chen and Dong Jun of the Yin-Yang School.
It is not difficult to see the happiness in the eyes of the two women. It is obvious that Ying Chen treats his women very well, and even a maid will not be treated harshly.
In this case, Ying Chen has a noble status as a prince of a country, his strength is so powerful that it is against the sky, and his appearance is almost impeccable.
This naturally made Xu Fengnian not have too many concerns.
"Don't worry, brother-in-law."
"My eldest sister and Jiangnan's marriage was originally a political marriage. There is no love between the two of them."
"So even if my father doesn't agree, I will force my elder sister to go to Daqin."
Seeing this, Ying Chen nodded with satisfaction and then waved his hand.
"Let's go. I won't see you off."
"As for Nangong Pushe, he will be of great use to me. I want to keep him by my side."
"You don't need to worry about your safety. With Lao Huang around, few people can do anything to you."
Hearing this, a hint of curiosity flashed in Xu Fengnian's eyes.
"Brother-in-law, in order to protect me, Old Huang at the top of Miaotai Peak revealed that he knows martial arts, but he just perfunctorily ignored whatever I asked him."
"Can you tell me how powerful Lao Huang is? Is he a great master?"
As he spoke, Xu Fengnian showed a flattering expression.
He even took the initiative to pick up the teapot on the stone table, poured a cup of tea for Ying Chen, and handed it to him respectfully.
Ying Chen did not refuse. He took the tea handed to him by Xu Fengnian and took a sip.
"Old Huang, whose original name was Huang Zhentu, was the Sword Emperor of Western Shu, and was also honored as Sword Nine Huang."
"He is very powerful and has already entered the realm of immortals on land. In this world, apart from some old monsters, he is rarely rivaled."
I heard that Lao Huang mentioned by Ying Chen was actually a great master from the fairyland on earth.
But when he thought about the past two years, whenever he encountered bandits, Lao Huang ran faster than himself, Xu Fengnian suddenly felt so angry that his teeth itched.
"You are such a good old Huang, you have deceived me so badly!"
With a roar, Xu Fengnian rushed directly to the door, and then Lao Huang's "scream" was heard outside the door.
As Xu Fengnian left, Nangong Pushe walked in.
"Nangong, Xu Fengnian will be leaving soon."
"As for his safety, Old Huang is a powerful person in the immortal realm on land. With his protection, there is no need to worry at all."
Nangong Pushe also heard what Xu Fengnian shouted outside the door, and probably understood Lao Huang's strength, so he nodded directly.
"If that's the case, then I'm relieved."
After saying that, Nangong Pushe took out a brand new book from his arms and handed it to Ying Chen.
"This is?"
"Nineteen Sword Stopping Techniques."
"In order to thank you for the martial arts you gave me, I specially compiled this sword technique overnight. I don't know if you can use it..."
When he heard the Nineteen Sword Techniques, a look of surprise flashed across Ying Chen's face.
Whether the sudden enlightenment technique is powerful or not is closely related to the techniques or state of mind that Ying Chen was watching before the sudden enlightenment.
If it was an ordinary mental method, Ying Chen would have to have dozens or even hundreds of sudden realizations before he could become stronger, so the cost-effectiveness would be extremely low.
