The gentleman's way

Anyone can see that something is wrong. The Marquis of Zhenbei has had no children for many years. How could the concubine give birth at this critical moment? The doctors were arrested and asked, but they only said that the concubine asked them to say it was a boy in order to win favor. This kind of thing happens endlessly in the big family, but I can't see what's wrong.

There is another one, even if that concubine is very courageous, she shouldn't have done anything to the eldest grandson of the Marquis of Zhenbei, and the eldest grandson has always been surrounded by capable people, so how could she be tricked into death.It is also unreasonable that Mrs. Zhenbeihou's last move went smoothly. Since she has been grounded, no one would dare to let her out without Zhenbeihou's order, and the secret medicine used for poisoning is not something that ordinary women can get at will. .If you look at the front and back together, you can tell that someone must be playing tricks. This person has been lurking for many years, so they can't catch the tell.

It's just that this matter was just Zhenbeihou's family affairs at the beginning, and they had no way to intervene. By the time they could intervene, Zhenbeihou had become like that, and the matter had become a settlement. If there was any evidence, it would have been destroyed up.This can be seen from the sudden and bizarre deaths of several people in the Zhenbeihou Mansion.

And now, Yan Hong's letter has reminded several people that the Hu people are probably ready for war, and now that the Marquis of Zhenbei has died of poisoning, it will be even worse for Yan Chao.What made the generals even more worried was that someone was clearly playing tricks in this situation, and this person was probably not a Hu, that is to say, someone in the court had colluded with the Hu.

Jun Changning's eyes swept over several people, and he felt even more uneasy. Looking at their expressions, he knew that this matter was not that simple. Now Qinghe Prefecture is suffering from internal and external troubles, but there is nothing he can do to help.Now Zhenbei Hou is unconscious, Yan Hong is still in Qinguan, Qin Huaiming is the biggest one, after a little consideration, he said: "I'm afraid the battle is just around the corner, order all the troops to prepare for the battle, and the matter of the old Marquis will be hidden first." on."

The atmosphere in the room was a bit dull, someone stood up and said: "It can only be done first, I will handle this matter, and the servants of the Zhenbeihou Mansion must strictly guard it. It's Hezhou."

Jun Changning nodded, and said, "It should be so." These people didn't trust themselves, probably because they were afraid that he would leak the news about Marquis Zhenbei, but if someone was causing trouble, I'm afraid the news wouldn't last long.

Jun Changning's worries became a reality. On the second day after he brought the news, the story of the Marquis of Zhenbei spread out from nowhere, and the common people could tell one, two, three, and the army was in turmoil for a while. The general of the army became even more fussy. Although Qin Huaiming was able to suppress one or two things, the situation became unclear. It was at this time that the news of the barbarians attacking the city came.

Although Jun Changning was under house arrest in the Hou Mansion, he knew the news from the outside world very well, and Qin Huaiming treated him very well.The flames of war outside were deafening, and Jun Changning only felt that the blood in his heart was about to boil. Of course, it was not because of any excitement, but because he was worried. The current situation in Qinghe Prefecture is not good. The supreme commander who is in charge, there is still a secret behind the scenes who does not know when he will stab the knife, which can be described as internal and external troubles.

Jun Changning frowned slightly, standing in front of the window looking at the flames outside, Qinghe Prefecture is different from Qinguan, if it is breached, it can be said to open the gate of the Yan Dynasty, this place can not only provide supplies for the Hu people, but also very It is suitable for cavalry to be stationed. Once the Yan Dynasty falls, the situation will be dangerous.

The Qi family is also worried. They can't go out these days, but they know a thing or two about the situation outside. Compared with Jun Changning's concern for the country and the people, he doesn't have so many thoughts. He only knows that this place is very dangerous. There is Zhang Dahu who will protect his young master, but this is Qinghe Prefecture. If it is really captured, no one will come to take care of the young master: "Master, why don't I take advantage of the chaos and go out to see the situation?"

But Jun Changning shook his head. I'm afraid it's the time when the city is in turmoil, and the Qi family will be in danger if something happens to them when they go out.Besides, if the enemy invades, the Qi family will not be able to help even if they go out. If not, there is no need to worry about their own safety for a while: "I don't know what's going on with Yan Hong. Can't rest easy."

Suddenly, there was a commotion outside, and the faces of the Qi family changed slightly. They held a long knife to block the door. Jun Changning was also alert, but saw a sergeant in armor walking in. Seeing him, he cupped his hands and said, "Master Jun, Yan The general has already returned to the city, let the villain take you there."

Jun Changning frowned, and didn't say any more to follow that person. When he got to the conference hall, he saw Yan Hong in military uniform, with a trace of unnatural paleness on his face, but he ordered things little by little as usual. The faces of the several generals in the army are much calmer than they were at the beginning. Although some of them are dissatisfied, they dare not confront this general who has become famous in recent years.

Naturally, Yan Hong also saw the person at the door, and felt a little guilty that Jun Changning was in danger because of him, but he just suppressed these emotions, nodded to him, and signaled him to sit aside.Nowhere in Qinghe State is safe now, he needs to put people by his side.

62. Chaos in the City

After a series of orders, the Zhenbei army is also quite experienced in fighting against the Hu people. At the beginning, it was a little flustered because of Zhenbeihou's affairs. At this time, seeing Yan Hong's appearance made him feel at ease. No, and Yan Hong also knew this and rushed back immediately.

After all the generals walked out of the door, Jun Changning walked up to Yan Hong, stretched out his hand to support the man who couldn't help shaking, and asked with a frown, "How is your body, can you hold it?"

Yan Hong shook his hands helplessly. After two days of rest, his health has actually improved a lot. After all, he has a good foundation, but he hurried on his way immediately, because of the work in Qinghe Prefecture, he is naturally a little tired at the moment: "It's okay, fortunately You arrived in time and let Qin Huaiming prepare, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

Jun Changning sighed, helped him to sit down on the soft couch next to him, unbuttoned his clothes and saw that it was really red again, so he had to take out the golden sore medicine to re-bandage, and then said helplessly: "You first Let's talk about it for ourselves. Even if there is no preparation, it will not be a matter of time for the barbarians to attack."

Yan Hong liked to see him worrying about himself, so he didn't feel angry, just patted him on the shoulder, and said lightly: "If Qin Huaiming hadn't been prepared, someone might have opened the city gate."

When he said this, Jun Changning clearly sensed the coldness and sternness on his body, and he was also a little surprised. After all, everyone knew the importance of Qinghe Prefecture, and someone wanted to open the city gate from inside.

Thinking of the performance of a group of generals just now, Jun Changning also became a little worried, and said tentatively: "Just now I saw that the generals standing on the far left seemed to disagree with your words, and there was arrogance in their brows. If most people support it, I’m afraid it will be difficult to control.”

Yan Hong was not surprised by Jun Changning's keenness, and explained with a sigh: "Those people were let in by those county princes, and they have been unable to intervene in the affairs of the Beibei Army. How can they be reconciled? The emperor will naturally not let them Ruyi, now the Zhenbei Army is a royalist party, so even if these few people come in, they are just serving in an unimportant position, and they can't interfere in the affairs of the Zhenbei Army."

"So that's how it is." Jun Changning frowned, a thought flashed in his mind, and he said suddenly, "Since someone can do something about Zhenbeihou's housework, which will cause Zhenbeihou's poisoning, he will open it in vain when the barbarians attack the city. City gate, such an elaborate chain plan cannot be dealt with simply, I am afraid that person will have another trick."

Yan Hong's face also changed slightly, thinking that there is still room for action in his own army, but the Zhenbei Army has always been strict in governing the army, and it is difficult for outsiders to intervene.And the few people he didn't trust were excluded, and they couldn't make trouble at a critical moment. They were guarding against this at the beginning.But as Jun Changning said, how could such an elaborate series of schemes be easily solved by them.

Jun Changning said suddenly: "Since we can't attack the army, will we directly target the people in the city? After all, the poisoning of the Marquis of Zhenbei has already made people panic. After you came back, you managed to suppress it. If there are more If anything happens, the people will probably panic even more."

"Cause civil unrest, and then lead the people to escape from Qinghe Prefecture, so as to contain the troops of the Zhenbei Army." Yan Hong's face was livid, and he stood up enduring the pain of the wound. Jun Changning also turned cold, knowing this. If it is true, I am afraid that they will not be able to deal a heavy blow to the Zhenbei Army at that time, and it will also make them burnt out. Now I helped Yan Hong go out and found Qin Huaiming. After asking, I knew that those few generals who were excluded could not intervene. The military is being sent to appease the common people at this moment.

Yan Hong's expression changed slightly, he pulled the horse and rode on it, turned around and said, "You stay here, I'll go and have a look."

How can Jun Changning rest assured, this guy is still seriously injured, he immediately led a horse and chased after him: "I'll go with you."

Yan Hong's heart warmed, he didn't let him go back after all, the two rushed to the city, but saw the fire burning in the distance, they both secretly screamed in their hearts that something was wrong, they drove their horses over there, but saw a group of soldiers He was in a hurry to put out the fire, but the general standing next to him was probably the general who was excluded, but he didn't see the other people.Yan Hong's face turned cold, and he shouted sharply: "Why panic, there is a water source next to it, immediately
