After losing the vest at the beginning, the female general was forced to marry the scheming prince

Chapter 162 Unraveling Hai Lizhu
After running a few laps, Madam Su stopped.

"I won't run today. After all, it's because I'm not forgiving. After running for a few laps, I feel uncomfortable all over my body."

Qu Chu smiled and said nothing.

No matter how good your riding skills were before, if you don't ride a horse for a few years, your whole body will hurt from bumping.

……

Madam Su stopped riding, and the others also stopped.

Qu Bingyu said: "I won't ride anymore, I'll accompany Madam."

Yan Hong and Su Fengmei also dismounted.

Hai Lizhu looked at Qu Chu, "We compare?"

Qu Chu was also a little interested, "Then I won't give in."

Seeing that the two were about to compete, Madam Su and the others pulled the horse aside.

"Compare the two of you, we will cheer for you."

Qu Chu looked at Hai Lizhu, "Start?"

Hai Lizhu nodded, and ran out first in a red dress, forming a beautiful scene on the school grounds.

Although Hai Lizhu is superb in riding skills, there is still a gap between her and Qu Chubi.

Qu Chu was not a competitive young man, she didn't really lead Hai Lizhu, she didn't run the horse fast, she just kept protecting Hai Lizhu's side.

But no matter how fast Hai Lizhu ran the horse, Qu Chu was always parallel to her.

Qu Chu didn't mean that he didn't dare to win Hai Lizhu, but that he was afraid of accidents.

Hai Lizhu has a special status, if there is an accident during the horse race with her, it will always be troublesome.

But even so, Qu Chu still had a great time running.

She hadn't run a horse so freely in a long time.

Hai Lizhu is even worse.

Since entering the harem of the Dayu Kingdom, it was the first time for her to ride a horse so freely.

The two ran for more than ten laps, and gradually slowed down the speed of the horse.

"General Qu, my riding skills are worse than my brother's. No one in the Haiqing Department can beat me, but I didn't expect that I'm still worse than you.

You can use seven points of force? "

Qu Chu didn't answer.

She felt that the energy of humans and horses at the limit was immeasurable, so it was hard to say how much force she used.

Hai Lizhu didn't ask any more questions.She looked to the west, which was her hometown.

She is homesick.

The days when I want to run wild on the grassland.

Qu Chu followed her silently.

"General Qu, how did you get into the barracks?"

Although Hai Lizhu was asking, she didn't look at Qu Chu, but still looked to the west.

"My father and uncle are all dead. My grandmother wanted to continue the glory of the Qu family, so she let me enter the military camp."

Fearing that Hai Lizhu would not understand the situation, Qu Chu added:

"I was abandoned by Qu's family since I was a child, and I didn't grow up in Qu's family, so people outside don't know that I exist or that I am a daughter.

And I didn't know my life experience until I was 15 years old. "

Only then did Hai Lizhu look back at Qu Chu from a distance.

"Then were you willing to enter the barracks at that time?"

Speaking of the past, Qu Chu has no special emotions.

"I was unwilling at the time. But after all these years, there is no good or bad."

Hai Lizhu sighed faintly:

"Why do you say that people can't live freely? Should they be restrained and bound by various things?"

Qu Chu thought for a while and answered Hai Lizhu.

"I think not many people in this world can truly live freely, everyone has their own responsibilities and obligations.

Ordinary people have to worry about their livelihood and do things they don't like or even hate in order to make money;
Although the life of a well-off family is relatively peaceful and peaceful, there are also worries about the oppression from the powerful or the possibility of falling into the bottom;
And what about the rich and powerful?In order to maintain one's own status and interests, it is also impossible to do whatever one wants. "

After saying these words, Qu Chu didn't say anything more.

Qu Chu was not a person who could comfort others, and she rarely comforted others.If it wasn't for her suggestion that Hai Lizhu came to Dayu Country to get married, Qu Chu wouldn't say these things.

Hai Lizhu smiled brightly at Qu Chu as if she had suddenly figured something out.

"General Qu was right, I was the one who got into a dead end.

Speaking of which, I am luckier than most people. My parents and elder brother have treated me very well, and His Majesty has also treated me very well after coming to Dayu Kingdom.

I don't have to worry about food and clothing, I don't have to worry about trivial matters, and I don't have to be too intriguing.

It's already so good, what else? "

Qu Chu nodded in agreement.

Just now, Hai Lizhu really figured it out.

Hai Lizhu also complained to people before why she wanted to get married?Everyone said that she was the leader's younger sister, and she would not kiss anyone.

It is said that her marriage is righteous, and it is for the good of Hai Qingbu.

There is nothing wrong with marrying the emperor as a concubine.

It is said that the emperor is handsome, elegant and talented...

He said everything, and told her the benefits of marrying the emperor.

But what she wants to hear is not these, but why can't she choose by herself?

No one said as carefully and calmly as Qu Chu just said: "You can't live freely, but most people can't choose."

And Qu Chu himself couldn't either.

Like Qu Chu, who was abandoned by his family since he was a child, but still had to disguise himself as a man and go to the battlefield for the glory of the family, to experience the life of narrow escape.

And she, at least since she was a child, has enjoyed the respect of the Haiqing Department.

……

It has been more than a month since Qu Chu returned to Yudu.

This month, she was so busy that she was going to be moldy. Fortunately, there was still Qu Bingyu's marriage to be arranged, so she learned how to marry a "girl" from the mother of Chu Palace.

A month has passed, and the disposal of officials in the Jianghuai area has also been announced.

Fang Haichang was sentenced to death.

For the sake of the imperial concubine, Fang Haichang's wife and children were not sold, but they were all demoted to common people.

Fang Haichang alone took all the blame, saying that his father didn't know about his embezzlement of money, but in any case, as Prime Minister Fang, a crime of dereliction of duty is indispensable.

In the end, the emperor was also extraordinarily merciful, and he was not guilty of ruling Prime Minister Fang, but only demoted him to a commoner.

The Fang family moved out of Yudu.

As for the city lords of Huaicheng and Jiangcheng, they were not as lucky as the Fang family.Not only were they sentenced to beheading, but their wives, concubines and children were also assigned or sold.

……

Ning Youbei said to Qu Chu privately:
"The result of a case has never been handled so quickly before. This time, Brother Huang is really angry, so the officials of the Ministry of Punishment dare not slack off."

Qu Chu asked him: "How did the emperor arrange the Fang family?"

The reason why Qu Chu asked this was because he suspected that the Fang family was a spy sent by another country.

"Brother Huang placed Fang's family in Yudu and sent someone to take care of them."

"What about the imperial concubine? She didn't do anything?"

Speaking of the imperial concubine, Ning Youbei pouted.

"She had been pleading for Fang's family before, but after knowing that Fang Haichang was greedy for so much money, she never said a word for Fang's family.

She once went to meet Fang Haichang privately, and asked him where did all the money go?But Fang Haichang didn't say anything. "

Although Ning Youbei didn't mention the third prince, Qu Chu understood: The third prince has never been destined for the throne in his whole life.

So far, the Jianghuai matter has come to an end.
