Invincible son

Chapter 1210 1211 [There will be times when the wind and the waves break] ([-])
In the Southern Zhou Dynasty, on the outskirts of Jian'an City, Bihu Courtyard.

Spring rains feet, dyed a stream of fresh green.

The sound of the rain was crisp, and the surface of the lake was dotted with stars, and then ripples appeared circle after circle.

The girl was wearing a green long dress, sitting beside the railing and staring at the dreamlike rain curtain, her face was still unparalleled, except that her eyes lost their former brilliance and looked a little dim.

There are also four strong servants in the pavilion, guarding behind the girl with lowered heads and eyebrows.Since a few months ago, they have been inseparable from the girl, even at night, they will guard outside the girl's bedroom.

This lakeside manor with beautiful mountains, clear waters and beautiful scenery is just a cage to the girl.

But she didn't cry and fight, and still maintained a calm mood, but she would sit in the gazebo for a long time every day, staring at the misty green lake, and never talked to these servants.

The rain is getting worse, and the spring breeze is blowing again, and the coolness comes quietly.

A servant woman said cautiously: "Miss, do you want to go back to your room to rest?"

Xu Churong remained motionless and silent.

The servants looked at each other with worry in their eyes.

At this moment, footsteps came from behind, and everyone turned their heads to look, only to see an old man walking surrounded by several guards.

Everyone hurriedly saluted and said, "Master, please be well."

Xu Huiyan said lightly: "You all step back."

"Yes, sir."

Everyone exited the gazebo one by one, and the only sound in the world was the lingering sound of rain.

Xu Churong stood up and saluted expressionlessly: "Daughter has seen Daddy."

Looking at her dull eyes, Xu Huiyan felt a slight pain in his heart, but he still said calmly: "Two months ago, Emperor Xuanwu of the Wu Kingdom marched in person, and an army of 40 cavalry crossed the Gaoyang Plain. All the way to attack the border of Beiliang. Ji Guliang, the left army of Beiliang, is the commander of the Western Army, and there are more than [-] frontier troops under his command. Now the two countries are winning and losing each other, and the fierce battle is in full swing."

Xu Churong's expression didn't change at all.

Xu Huiyan didn't take it seriously, and continued: "Beiliang Youjun Xiao Jin is now on the north bank of the Tiancang River, leading the frontier army to guard against our dynasty. That is to say, the person who is really in charge of the military power in the capital of Beiliang now is Pei Yue, the emperor of Beiliang. I didn't suspect Pei Yue, nor weakened the authority in his hands, but I trusted him more and more."

Xu Churong's eyes moved slightly.

Xu Huiyan walked to the stone table and sat down, poured himself half a bowl of clear tea, and said leisurely: "According to my detailed report, Xiao Jin did not gather heavy troops in the upper reaches of the Tiancang River, but instead sent Qi Nian and Gubai to the upper reaches of the Tiancang River. The troops of the battalion were transferred to the north of Puqi City."

Xu Churong finally spoke, with a slightly hoarse voice: "What does Dad mean by that?"

"Don't you understand yet?"

Xu Huiyan frowned slightly, and his tone gradually turned solemn: "Pei Yue doesn't believe you at all, otherwise, with his current status in the Northern Liang Dynasty Hall and the young emperor's trust in him, how could he not interfere with his deployment of the Southern Army? ? If Pei Yue believes in you, and he is thousands of miles away and lacks timely information, Xiao Jin will naturally place the main force of the Southern Army on the upper reaches of the Tiancang River."

Xu Churong looked at his father with complicated eyes, and after a long time went to sit opposite him, and said indifferently: "It turns out that Dad came to Bihu Bieyuan for the first time since the last time, and he wanted to ask my daughter Xingshi for a crime."

Xu Huiyan shook his head and said, "As a father, I just want you to be sober. Churong, the battle of Jiangling last year was indeed my father's fault for you, but you should understand that the descendants of the Qinghe Xu family should have taken on more responsibilities."

Xu Churong lowered her eyes and lowered her eyebrows and said, "My daughter understands, so even though these things happened, she didn't feel too much hatred in her heart. It's just that my daughter feels tired and doesn't want to be involved in the affairs of the state anymore."

She laughed at herself, with a tired look on her refined face, she said softly: "Pei Yue is right, I am not suitable for these schemes at all."

Xu Huiyan only felt a little blocked in his heart, and sighed: "Forget it. I came here today for my father, just to see you, and to tell you the news just now. From now on, my father will not let people look at you like before. , but I also hope that you can recognize the facts."

Xu Churong looked at him puzzled.

Xu Huiyan was silent for a moment and said, "You are 17 years old this year."

Xu Churong's heart suddenly tightened.

Xu Huiyan continued: "The eldest son of Lord Zhen Guo is a good match."

Fang Yuntian?
Of course Xu Churong had seen this Fang family son.In all fairness, Fang Yuntian can be regarded as one of the top young men in the Southern Zhou Dynasty in recent years, with a good background, talent, appearance, and temperament. Xu Huiyan's words about a good match are not absurd praise.Specific to this marriage, the marriage between the Xu family of Qinghe and the Fang family of Pingjiang can be called a match made in heaven, and it will do twice the result with half the effort to stabilize the internal situation of the entire Zhou Dynasty.

Especially under the premise that the military is in full swing to seek World War I, Qinghe Xu's statement has a more far-reaching impact.

However, Xu Churong still finds it ridiculous, she doesn't understand why her father proposed this marriage, does he think he really doesn't have any resentment in his heart?But think about it carefully, her thoughts are insignificant, aside from Qinghe Xu's identity, what can she do?What's more, just now her father has pointed out that Pei Yue doesn't trust her at all.

One side is the inseparable blood and family relationship, and the other is the misty meaning far away in the sky. At least in Xu Huiyan's view, it is not difficult to guess how the daughter will choose.

With a lot of back and forth in his heart, Xu Churong asked softly: "Dad already agreed to Duke Zhen?"

Xu Huiyan looked at her recently thinned figure, shook his head and said, "If you don't want to, I will refuse the Duke of Zhen as my father."

Xu Churong asked again: "The Military Aircraft Department is planning a war in the north, at this time, Duke Zhen still has time to take care of his son's marriage?"

"This battle is divided into three steps. The first ones are Ningguo Daying and Wufeng Navy, which will be presided over by Jubeihou himself, and Zhen Guogong's side—" Xu Huiyan suddenly stopped talking, and said earnestly to Xu Churong: "At the beginning Rong, as a father, I just hope to find a good husband and son-in-law for you. Pei Yue is definitely not a good match. Even if the difference between family and country is aside, he now has two wives, and it is said that the relationship is very harmonious. Are you going to betray the Xu family and Guochao to be his concubine?"

Xu Churong remained silent.

Xu Huiyan continued to persuade: "If it wasn't for Fang Yuntian's talent, I would certainly not consider this marriage as a father. After all, the Xu family owes you first. Even if you don't want to get married in this life, being a father can guarantee you a safe and happy life for the rest of your life." As a father, I do not deny that the marriage with the Fang family is related to whether the Qinghe Xu family can continue to gain a foothold in this land, and it is also related to the life and death of the entire Great Zhou Dynasty."

He paused, and said solemnly: "Father will not force you to make a choice."

After a while.

"My daughter is willing."

Xu Churong said calmly.

Xu Huiyan's face was not happy, naturally because the answer was somewhat unexpected.

Xu Churong said again: "But my daughter has two conditions."

Xu Huiyan felt relieved, nodded and said, "Say it."

Xu Churong said in a calm and unhurried manner: "First, father wants to remove the people around my daughter, and let the maids and servants who took care of her before come back. Of course, daughter understands that father has concerns, so daughter doesn't mind if father asks people to take care of her." This green lake courtyard is so surrounded that not even a single bird can fly out."

Xu Huiyan pondered: "Yes."

"Secondly, my daughter has the last letter to give to Pei Yue. This letter will be reviewed by Dad first, and then Dad will be asked to send someone to Chengjing City in Beiliang, so that Mr. Xi can deliver it to Pei Yue."

Xu Huiyan said slowly, "Why?"

Xu Churong sighed softly, turned his head to look at the rain curtain blowing in the wind, and said for a long time: "Since we will not see each other again for the rest of my life, my daughter just wants to say goodbye to the past."

Xu Huiyan thought carefully, although this matter is not appropriate, but compared with the significance of marrying Pingjiang Fang's family, it is within the range that he can accept.What's more, Xu Churong was completely isolated from the outside world during this time. Even if she really had some hidden thoughts, she couldn't provide useful information to the north.

"it is good."

"Thank you Daddy."

Xu Huiyan finally comforted him with gentle words, then got up and left under the rain.

Xu Churong stood where he was, silently watching.

……

Two days later, the fifth day of March.

Xu Churong was having breakfast in the side hall, and beside her were no longer the servants who looked after the prisoners, but the maids who had followed her since she was a child.

The hall was very quiet, a big maid walked slowly outside, looked left and right, then turned back and winked at her companion in the room.

The companion then whispered to Xu Churong: "Miss, that man said he was from the north, and he was suffering from being unable to get close to Bihu Bieyuan, so he was very worried about Miss's safety."

Xu Churong drank the porridge unhurriedly, then took a handkerchief to wipe his mouth, and said calmly, "Do you have an agreed contact method?"

"Yes, Miss." The eldest maid replied nervously.

Xu Churong said: "Tell him, he is going to do something for me."

She spoke softly, and there was a bright color in her eyes that she hadn't seen for a long time.
