Chapter 642 If they don’t fight, they will die
Xu Xianyu looked up, relieved of the things in his hands, and asked, "What's wrong?
Is something wrong?
My sister-in-law went for a walk and she probably won't be back for a while.
If you are not in a hurry, wait for her here. If you are in a hurry, you can go find her in the front."
Xu Pinggui pursed his lips, thought for a moment, and looked at Xu Xianyu seriously, "Miss, there's news from Huozhou City. Uncle Peng...he..."
When Xu Xianyu heard the news about Xu Dapeng, and Xu Pinggui also stammered and refused to speak directly, she immediately had a bad feeling and said quickly:
"What happened to Uncle Peng? Xu Pinggui, please tell me quickly."
"Uncle Peng is dead!" Xu Pinggui lowered his head, with a hint of red in his eyes.
Xu Xianyu's eyes widened, and he shook his head in disbelief. "How could this happen? Isn't Uncle Peng's martial arts very powerful?
Why would he die?
No, no, you lied to me, didn't you?
Xu Pinggui lowered his head, "Uncle Peng and his men were ambushed by the enemy. They were constantly surrounded by enemies. Uncle Peng and his men, more than 20 in number, held out for two full hours before the young master led his men to drive them away.
When the young master arrived, no one on Uncle Peng's side could stand up, and in the end only three people survived. Uncle Peng died after seeing the young master for the last time.
This is the best ending for Uncle Peng, as he can see the young master before his death.
The young master and his companions also tried hard. Originally, it would take seven days to reach Huozhou City even if they traveled day and night, but the young master and his companions arrived in six and a half days. However, in the end, they were still one step too late.
I can only say that this might be fate, Xu Pinggui's eyes looked a little dim.
Xu Xianyu sat there without saying a word.
Uncle Peng is gone.
Her eyes turned red and tears fell.
Xu Pinggui was shocked, "Miss, please don't cry.
Uncle Peng definitely doesn't want to see you cry, and you have to decide whether to tell the young lady or not."
He didn't know whether he should tell the young lady about this given her current condition.
If anything happens to her because he told her this, he will be to blame.
Xu Xianyu took out a handkerchief and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Speak, why don't you speak?
My sister-in-law is not a fragile person, she knows her limits.
Besides, Uncle Peng's death is a big deal. There might be some conspiracy behind it, so she has to make the decision."
Her sister-in-law is not a fragile person.
Xu Pinggui nodded. He thought so too, but he was a little hesitant because he was worried about the young lady's health.
And just at this moment, Lin Mo came back.
Qinglian always followed her and protected her.
After two laps, Lin Mo felt his face getting hot and there was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.
Seeing that Xu Pinggui and Xu Xianyu were in a bad mood and even looked a little depressed, Lin Mo raised an eyebrow and said, "Look at the expressions on your faces, tell me, what happened?"
After saying that, he sat down on a stool nearby to rest.
Xu Xianyu and Xu Pinggui glanced at each other before Xu Pinggui stepped forward. "Young Madam, news has come from Huozhou City that Uncle Peng has died. It happened just as the Young Master was arriving."
The smile on Lin Mo's face faded.
She didn't say anything for a long time, just entwined her hands together and kneaded them hard. How could it be such a coincidence?
Old Xu must be so sad.
After a long while, she finally spoke, and with a bitter taste in her mouth:
"I see."
Seeing that she didn't have any major emotional ups and downs because of this incident, Xu Pinggui finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Madam, the young master and his men have already received the coffin and are now transporting it towards Yuancheng.
In addition, the young master has sent back a message that he has arranged everything for the rest of the journey, so the young lady does not need to worry about him.
"Yeah." Lin Mo nodded. She looked up at Xu Pinggui and asked, "What's the situation with the Zhenbei Army?"
They have to protect themselves.
If they don't take action, more people will probably die on their side.
Although Xu Pinggui didn't understand why she suddenly asked this, he still answered seriously, "The Beiling Army is still active on the border. The Zhenbei Army was very nervous at first, but now it has been a long time and there has been no movement from the Beiling Army. Now the Zhenbei Army has returned to its previous laziness."
It’s not that Xu Pinggui dislikes it.
To be honest, the Zhenbei Army is no match for the Beiling Army. If a fight really breaks out, the Zhenbei Army will definitely be defeated.
After listening to this, Lin Mo did not rush to speak, but sat in his original position and thought about things.
After a while, she stood up:
"Go and call Qi Zhengfei to come to the study to see me."
After Xu Pinggui went downstairs to call for help, Lin Mo walked towards the study. She wanted to join the Zhenbei Army.
"Sister-in-law." Xu Xianyu looked at her with a worried look on his face. "Are you okay?"
"Do I look like someone who has problems?" Lin Mo chuckled. She looked down at her belly and chuckled:
“In my current state, I dare not let anything happen to me.
Don't worry, I'm not that fragile, no news can defeat me."
Having said this, she glanced at Xu Xianyu and shook her head:
"On the contrary, you should be more open-minded. Life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are determined by God.
This may be Uncle Peng’s fate.
The only thing we can do is to avenge him personally one day in the future."
After saying that, she turned and walked slowly towards the study.
Instead of wasting time being sad, it is better to find a way to take revenge. This is Lin Mo’s truest thought.
Prince Heng, Queen Qian.
Sooner or later, I will make them pay the price.
When Qi Zhengfei arrived, Lin Mo was studying the map.
"Mrs. Lin, you want to see me?" Qi Zhengfei stood straight.
"Yeah." Lin Mo raised her head and looked at Qi Zhengfei carefully.
If Song Yi hadn't framed him, Qi Zhengfei should be in charge of the Zhenbei Army now, and he wouldn't have much friendship with his side.
She felt that she met him just to set things right.
Seeing that she was staring at him without saying anything, Qi Zhengfei felt uncomfortable all over. Did he do something wrong these days?
Otherwise, why would the young lady keep staring at me? Her eyes are so scary.
Qi Zhengfei finally couldn't bear it anymore, "Madam Lin, just tell me, have I done anything wrong recently?
You staring at me like that puts a lot of pressure on me."
Lin Mo was stunned for a moment and chuckled, "Don't you know whether you have done anything wrong or not?"
The problem is that sometimes you don’t even know when you’ve done something wrong, Qi Zhengfei muttered to himself.
These days, apart from leading people on patrol to maintain public order, the only thing he did out of the ordinary was chasing his son to beat him up. There was nothing else he did.
Seeing how distressed and conflicted he was, Lin Mo stopped making things difficult for him.
Instead, he looked at him seriously and said, "Qi Zhengfei, let me ask you, if I were to give you the Zhenbei Army to lead, would you dare to do so?"
As soon as these words came out, Qi Zhengfei's body trembled, and he became serious:
"Young Madam, are you ready to take action?"
Lin Mo nodded, looking out the study door with a deep gaze, "Right now the entire Daye court is in complete chaos, with all regions dividing up their own territories and governing themselves.
Originally, Mocheng was located in the north, and people disliked this place.
I originally thought that we would just stay in Mocheng and not get involved in the affairs of the court, but the current situation is forcing us to make a choice.
If we still follow our previous idea and only defend the small piece of land around Mocheng, we will definitely continue to have people killed.
But if we get involved in these things, I'm afraid the trouble will only get bigger, and our numbers will only increase."
If it were just Prince Heng and Queen Qian's men, they would not have been able to carry out the siege for two consecutive hours.
She was very clear about the skills of Uncle Peng and the people he took away.
They were able to tire them to death, which shows that there were many people besieging them. Where did these people come from?
Naturally, it is the forces of all parties.
Now all forces are taking action against them, and if this continues for a long time, they will not be able to stop them.
Lin Mo looked up at him and said, "You have to think about this carefully. Once you step in, there will be no way back.
I respect your opinion, and I won't force you to agree if you don't want to. But you have to promise me that once you step out of this door, you'll completely keep all of this to yourself."
She wanted to take control of the Zhenbei Army and then use it to protect them.
With the army in hand, various forces dared not continue to reach out to them.
Compared with other forces, our side only lacks a large team.
Qi Zhengfei didn't answer her question, but looked at her seriously, "How far do you want to go, Madam?
I want to go to the imperial court to restore peace and order, and then return the military power. Or..."
He paused, his expression becoming more serious:
"Go all the way to the end?"
As he said this, his heart began to pound.
Her answer determines his choice.
If it was the former, he was unwilling to enter that vortex again.
The Daye Dynasty was rotten to the core. If I got involved, I would probably die in an unclear way one day.
But if it was the latter, he was willing to fight with her, even if he died, he would have no regrets.
Because under the leadership of Young Master Xu and others, the people may be able to live a good life.
Lin Mo sighed, "I'm afraid we'll have to go all the way to the end. Those people behind us can't tolerate the Xu family, and can't tolerate anything here."
If they don't resist, they will die.
Qi Zhengfei smiled and said brightly, "Okay, I'm willing to take it.
Rest assured, Madam, if the now rotten Zhenbei Army falls into my hands, I will return you a Tiger Division within six months."
Looking at Qi Zhengfei with a confident look on his face, Lin Mo chuckled, and she knew that she had not misjudged him.
"Then I know what to do!"
