The magistrate of Kunyu County was named Xu Shuangnian. He was originally the magistrate of Shanglin County, but was squeezed out and transferred to the more remote Kunyu County.
Upon learning that King Wei was coming to inspect, Xu Shuangnian decided to solve the bandit problem in Kunyu County and make some political achievements to meet King Wei, hoping that he could take advantage of this opportunity to rise to prominence.
Meeting Niu Jiuhua was an accident. Xu Nianqing's real name was Xu Nianqing. His original name was Xu Qingyun, which means rapid rise to fame.
After Xu Qingyun learned of her identity, he took the initiative to approach her, wanting Niu Jiuhua to take him back to the mountain.
However, he didn't expect that Niu Jiuhua was a bandit, and a lustful female bandit at that. She had no intention of taking him back, but instead wanted to find a cave on the way and execute him.
Xu Qingyun fled in panic, but accidentally fell off a cliff. No one knew whether he was dead or not, but in any case, he was replaced.
Now there is another person's soul living in Xu Qingyun's body. Although they are not the same person, the purpose of eliminating this bandit's nest is the same.
Perhaps political achievements are not important to him, and whether he is a bandit is not important. He just did it for the sake of convenience and it is insignificant.
"They were killed in return, what a bunch of losers!"
Xu Nianqing stood up and asked, "Where's Xu Shuangnian?"
The servant at the door heard Xu Qingyun calling his biological father like this again, and still felt it was ridiculous, but still replied: "The master just came back from the government office."
Xu Nianqing found Xu Shuangnian and said, "Tell the county lieutenant to send another 500 soldiers. I will lead them myself and destroy Tianhu Village in one fell swoop."
Xu Shuangnian looked embarrassed: "Qingyun, it's not that Dad doesn't agree, but this county lieutenant simply doesn't listen to me and can't mobilize so many soldiers."
"I heard there's a fierce female bandit in Tiger Village who kills people without mercy. Most of the soldiers who went there this time were killed by her. I've just taken over, and it would be hard to explain if so many people died. I think we should try a different approach."
Xu Nianqing: "The first battle has already begun. A county magistrate has lost to a bandit. Do you think you can still hold on to your position?"
Xu Shuangnian frowned: "Qingyun, how can you talk to me like that?"
Disgust flashed in Xu Nianqing's eyes, and he turned away with a cold face: "Write a letter to the King of Wei, explaining your identity, and I will deal with the county lieutenant."
Xu Shuangnian: "That county lieutenant doesn't even give me face, how are you going to deal with him? And the King of Wei, I heard he's ruthless and impartial, all corrupt officials and incompetent people will not escape, I have no political achievements and I'm trying to get in on him, won't I be punished?"
"Xu Xinrou."
Xu Shuangnian was surprised: "How do you know this name?"
Xu Nianqing said, "Xu Xinrou entered the palace as a maid and gave birth to a daughter after being favored. After she died unexpectedly, the emperor took pity on this daughter and registered her in the Empress Dowager's name, bestowing her with the name Xuanyang."
Xu Shuangnian was truly shocked: "Xuan...Princess Xuanyang...isn't that the empress?"
He was so excited that his eyes almost popped out of his head. He couldn't believe it: "How is it possible that the Empress is Xinrou's daughter?"
Xu Nianqing couldn't understand: "Why don't you know about this?"
By the time Xu Nianqing knew about Xu Shuangnian, he was already dead, and his biological mother was not the empress, so he could not understand many things.
Xu Shuangnian shook his head in a daze. "I don't know. Back then, your grandfather spent all his family wealth but only got the position of a county magistrate. He wanted to marry your aunt off to a wealthy family, but she was abandoned like a worn-out shoe. He even offended the nobles, so he sent Xinrou to the palace to be a maid."
"Your grandfather was originally assigned to a county seat very close to the capital, but in the end he was assigned to the most remote county in the borderlands. He served as county magistrate for twenty years."
"We didn't know the late emperor favored your aunt, but we do know she gave birth to a daughter and was given the title of Zhaoyi. His Majesty also rewarded your grandfather and promoted him to Guanzhou. It was several years later when we settled down. Your grandfather wrote a letter, wanting to return to the capital to report on his work and visit Zhaoyi. Before the approval came, the court received the news that Zhaoyi had passed away."
"They didn't even let us go. They buried the child directly. Afterwards, they never mentioned the child again. We just assumed the child was gone. After all, the child was only a few years old and of royal blood. There was no need to notify us specifically if he was gone."
"How...how did she become Princess Xuanyang..."
Before, Xu Shuangnian didn’t know about Princess Xuanyang. After all, she was so far away from the capital, and many news could not be transmitted. But since the empress ascended the throne, who in the world didn’t know the empress and Princess Xuanyang?
He only knew that Princess Xuanyang was the empress dowager's daughter and the legitimate daughter of the Central Palace. He had no idea that she was adopted by the empress dowager and raised by her, or was actually his sister's daughter.
Xu Nianqing understood that it was all because of his low official position.
Xu Shuangnian trembled for a long time, and finally recovered. He asked doubtfully, "Qingyun, how did you know about this?"
Xu Nianqing couldn't say that he was Lu Nianqing, so the empress must be his biological mother.
"I found out by accident, and I can't explain it to you. Also, from now on, my name will no longer be Xu Qingyun, but Xu Nianqing."
Just when he learned that he might be the empress's uncle, his son wanted to change his name. Xu Shuangnian didn't know which one to say for a moment, and Xu Nianqing had already left.
The Xu family, it turned out to be that Xu family.
Xiao Li knew that Xuan Yang's biological mother's family was still alive, but she never had any contact with them. Moreover, she was not her original self, so she never thought of recognizing these relatives.
But I never thought that one day we would meet in this way.
No wonder Xu Qingyun looks like her, it turns out they are cousins.
Lu Nianqing's appearance is also very similar to his original body, which is why he was reborn in Xu Qingyun.
This relationship is really simple and complicated, but for Xiao Li, it is not that complicated. No matter whether they are relatives or "sons", she does not recognize them. As long as they dare to dance in front of her, they can be cut down.
She didn't care about relatives, but knowing that King Wei was coming was good news. With Xiao Jingyi, she would definitely be able to go back.
But for now, let's put the matter of going back aside. Xu Nianqing went to the county lieutenant and got the token in a short while. He mobilized all the soldiers in Kunyu County and prepared to attack the mountain again.
Xiao Li hurried to look for Niu Jiuhua, and after walking around for a few times, he finally found her. He saw that she had tied up Zhou Yang.
"Did he attack you?"
Xiao Li entered the city with them and before leaving told Niu Jiuhua that Zhou Yang had murderous intentions towards her.
Niu Jiuhua kicked Zhou Yang angrily: "He attacked me for no reason and even wanted to tie me up, so I had no choice but to tie him up."
Zhou Yang trembled: "Who are you talking to? Who are you? Give my Jiuhua back to me!"
Xiao Li: “.......” Fuck, I thought you were a ruthless person, but you’re just a love-brained person.
Niu Jiuhua didn't understand what he meant at first, and rolled her eyes in annoyance: "I am Niu Jiuhua, are you crazy?"
Zhou Yang refused to accept it, his eyes filled with hatred: "You are not, I heard it all, Granny Liu said you are an evil spirit, you possessed Jiuhua and killed so many people, you give my Jiuhua back to me."
He is love-brained, but blind.
