cpa300_4(); An aide of the prefectural government of Guanzhou handed a booklet to Xuan Tianming in person. After Xuan Tianming took the booklet, he said, "Lord Zhao said that he handed over this booklet for no other reason than to ask His Highness the Ninth Prince to let his family go. (Read the latest chapter┲﹊請丄﹏☆~ωǒ看书阁]Ｗｗ.КＡΝsＨUｇe.℃Ｏм) The prefects of the three prefectures in the northern border are all controlled by Duanmu Anguo. They have worked for Duanmu Anguo for many years. Lord Zhao is willing to bear all the blame. Please let the people of the Zhao family go."
Xuan Tianming unfolded the booklet, and Feng Yuheng also leaned over to take a look. He saw that the booklet recorded page by page all the names of Dashun officials who had entered the Northern Boundary through Guanzhou in the past ten years, as well as the relationship between them and Duanmu Anguo analyzed by Zhao Zhizhou. In addition to these, there was also a special list of people who came to celebrate Duanmu Anguo's birthday every year. It was very detailed, and some even had notes explaining what kind of gifts these people gave and what actual benefits they got from Duanmu Anguo.
Of course, there are some things he is not sure about, but any guesses will be marked so as not to confuse people who read the booklet.
Such a thing, even Feng Yuheng gasped. The Qi meridians that the Duanmu family has cultivated in Dashun over the past hundred years are so strong. Among these officials, at least 30% are Beijing officials, and there are even a few names that seem to be very close to Xuan Tianming and Xuan Tianhua.
Xuan Tianming also took a deep breath and tightened his grip on the book in his hand. It was obvious that this book was very important to him. Zhao Tianqi was able to record these things in the past ten years, which was enough to save the lives of his entire family.
Xuan Tianming put the booklet into his arms, took a step forward, and personally helped the aide up, "Old sir, I am not the King of Hell who wants to kill you. As long as you recognize my Dashun, you are my people. Zhao Tianqi, the governor of Guanzhou, was coerced by Duanmu Anguo for many years, but he was still able to think for the Dashun court and risk his life to leave such important evidence, which is enough to show his loyalty to the country. Don't worry, for Mr. Zhao who was coerced by Duanmu Anguo and detained in Songzhou, I will do my best to rescue him. If he is rescued, he will be the governor of the Northern Boundary. His whole family, including you, are meritorious officials that my Xuan family will never forget."
The staff looked at Xuan Tianming, and his eyes became wet when he heard what he said. He wanted to kneel down to Xuan Tianming again, but his arms were held up, so he couldn't kneel down. The old man wiped his tears and said tremblingly: "I have followed Lord Zhao for more than ten years, and voluntarily stayed to wait for the imperial army to come here. Lord Zhao is right. In this world, only the seven and nine princes and Princess Ji'an can be trusted. I beg the ninth prince to save Lord Zhao. He has never been willing to celebrate Duanmu Anguo's birthday, but there is no way. He is the governor appointed by the court and is under the jurisdiction of Duanmu Anguo. He has to go. But since he went to Songzhou, he has never come back. Your Highness, Lord Zhao is a good official! You must save him!" When he was moved, the fifty-year-old man burst into tears.
The prefectural government became Xuan Tianming's temporary residence in Guanzhou. In order to avoid unrest in the city, the army dispersed and set up camp in the city. The aide's name was Kong Mingsheng. He had been following Xuan Tianming and told him some things about the Northern Territory.
He said, "The princess burned down the Dutong Mansion. Now, the Winter Palace in Songzhou is the lair of Duanmu Anguo. Duanmu Anguo is a womanizer and has countless children and grandchildren. Although he has only admitted to a few of them, many people even say that the biological mother of the third prince is his only daughter. But that's not true! In the Winter Palace, there are countless people who gave birth to his children. He even gave away many of his daughters and granddaughters. Lord Zhao has checked where they were married, but he still has no idea."
Feng Yuheng sat next to Xuan Tianming. The two sat side by side on the same big chair, listening carefully to Sun Sheng's words. When he heard other things, his brows knitted tightly.
In fact, she had already thought that Duanmu Anguo must have many children and grandchildren with so many women, but she had been in the Northern Realm for so many days, and even participated in the New Year's Banquet, but she had seen very few descendants of the Duanmu family. Although she didn't recognize some of them, she couldn't count the number of people who could sit with Duanmu Cong on one hand.
No wonder, no wonder she couldn't see the descendants of the family. It turned out that they were sent out, or secretly raised in the Winter Palace. It's not scary to raise them, but it's scary because no one knows how many bloodlines Duanmu Anguo has sent away, and where these bloodlines are distributed. Everything unknown is always scary. Her intuition tells her that Duanmu Anguo's chess game has become so big that she can't imagine it. Even if Duanmu Anguo's life ends, this game will still not be over.
Xuan Tianming also had the same idea as her. He asked Kong Sheng in a deep voice: "Since you have recognized me as your master, please tell me everything you know."
Kong Sheng nodded and continued, "As for how many descendants Duanmu Anguo has, no one knows. I have analyzed this with Lord Zhao, and we are all guessing. I am afraid that even the eldest son like Duanmu Cong cannot count how many brothers, sisters, nephews and nieces he has. But over the years, Duanmu Qing's favorite is his grandson Duanmu Qing who died in the capital, but that is just a preference. In fact, the child that Duanmu Anguo likes the most is called Duanmu Li, who was sent to Qianzhou as a hostage fifteen years ago."
"Fifteen years ago?" Feng Yuheng was stunned. Could it be that Duanmu Anguo had started planning all this fifteen years ago?
Kong Sheng did not wait for her to ask and continued, "That's right. Fifteen years ago, when Lord Zhao had just taken office in Guanzhou, I also followed Lord Zhao and his family to migrate north that year. One-third of the dragon veins of Qianzhou are within the territory of the three provinces of the Northern Boundary. Therefore, the two sides have cooperated secretly on this matter more than once. Even the avalanche in the Northern Boundary eight years ago was caused by Duanmu Anguo's private excavation of the dragon veins of Qianzhou."
Xuan Tianming nodded, "I have heard of this. It is said that the dragon vein is located between Songzhou and Jiangzhou."
"I have no idea about this." Kong Sheng told the truth, "But it is indeed heavily guarded there, and they never allow soldiers sent by the Dashun court to be stationed there. Duanmu Anguo has his own soldiers, all of whom are from the Northern Realm, and all of them have Qianzhou bloodline. He wants to use these people's desire to trace their roots one day to manipulate them to fight against the Dashun army for him."
Feng Yuheng said coldly: "This is not the ultimate goal. We analyzed that he is just a medicine inducer, in order to make Qianzhou and Dashun go to war, so that he can reap the benefits and swallow Qianzhou in turn."
As they were discussing this, Bai Ze came in from outside the door and bowed in front of the two of them: "Master, how do we deal with Duanmu Cong's body?"
Xuan Tianming waved his hand and said to Kong Sheng, "Sir, please go and have a rest first. I will have a long talk with you after I finish my military affairs."
After Kong Sheng left, Feng Yuheng said first: "I want to go and take a look. There are my things on the body. I have to take them back."
Xuan Tianming thought for a moment, then said, "Didn't we kidnap two Northern Territory generals earlier? Bring them up together."
Bai Ze left in response, and when he came back, he was escorted into the hall by four soldiers with two prisoners, followed by Duanmu Anguo on a stretcher.
Feng Yuheng stood up and went over. As he walked, he took out a pair of medical masks from the space and put them on. Then he took a scalpel and tweezers, and when he got to the corpse, without saying a word, he directly slashed the knife towards Duanmu Cong's forehead.
Everyone watched her take something out of it, and then they remembered the strange scene when Duanmu Cong died. Now it seems that it was that strange thing that killed him, right? But what exactly was that thing? How did the princess manage to hit it into Duanmu Cong's forehead?
However, this question will never have an answer, even Bai Ze is confused. Fortunately, Xuan Tianming's soldiers believe in Feng Yuheng as a god. No matter what Feng Yuheng does, they think it is natural. No matter how strange the things are, they should be given by their princess.
Feng Yuheng was very satisfied with the result, and neatly put the bullets and knives back into the space, then turned around and looked at the two captured generals. She knew one of them, the bearded man who showed off his power in the inn when he was in Songzhou.
She asked with a smile: "Why, you followed Duanmu Cong here too? Do you feel honored to be by his side and lead Duanmu Anguo? Are you still thinking about getting promoted after you return? But, have you ever thought that once you come here, you will never be able to go back again?"
The bearded man shuddered. He had recognized the girl long ago, but it was precisely because of this that he felt even more terrified to be captured alive. The Ninth Prince killed people without blinking an eye. It was said that his wife was even more ruthless than him.
However, Xuan Tianming was quite surprised this time, because he heard the other party saying: "After having a good meal, I will ask someone to send you back to Songzhou!"
The bearded man was startled, and was about to doubt whether he had heard it wrong. However, the following words came back, and his scalp tingled. It was still Xuan Tianming who said, "By the way, send this Duanmu Cong's body back to his father, and tell him that my wife is ignorant. She came to the Northern Territory and happened to be celebrating the birthday of the Grand Commander, but she didn't ask for a backup gift. It's really too shabby to just have a fireworks display. Women are always stingy. I hope the Grand Commander won't be offended. Now that I'm here, this generous gift must be made up. I don't know if the life of his son is enough. Go and ask for me. If he says it's not enough, I'll kill a few more people later."
After hearing this, the bearded man and the other man could not even stand. Their legs went weak and they sat down on the ground. The bearded man kept begging for mercy: "Your Highness, please let us go. We were forced to do this! I dare not say anything like that, I dare not say anything like that!"
Xuan Tianming kicked him in the chest without saying anything. The kick was quite powerful, and the bearded man was kicked flying and crashed into the weapon rack on the side of the court. At the same time as he kicked, Feng Yuheng was not idle either. She raised her foot and kicked the other man, also running over there. The two of them were pressed together like a stack of Arhats, and the bearded man underneath was knocked out with a mouthful of blood.
Xuan Tianming completely ignored the two of them and just turned his head to ask the girl beside him: "Wife, does your foot hurt?"
