Chapter 343: Reunion in the North

But wasn't it because Lu Mingchao was different from ordinary people that he wanted to force him into the palace?

Lu Minghui was able to bring along the memories of her past life, and had the upper hand everywhere, but she was still defeated by Lu Mingchao.

It is not impossible that Lu Mingchao had some other magical powers that only exist in legends.

Resurrection from the dead or flying into the sky.

Xiao Yao immediately came up with a plan.

"Go check on Lu Mingchao's parents, brothers, stepchildren, relatives and friends to find out if there has been any abnormality recently and whether Lu Mingchao has appeared."

The secret guard's numb face was filled with shock for a moment.

He saw with his own eyes Lu Mingchao jumping off the cliff of Dalù Mountain.

Thousand feet.

He was still worried, so he pushed a huge rock down from the place where Lu Mingchao jumped off the cliff.

And Lu Mingchao was pregnant...

There is no chance of survival.

But he is His Majesty's secret guard, and he only needs to obey His Majesty's orders.

Lu Mingchao sighed, to be honest, with the emperor's imagination, he has the potential to write a best-selling novel.

It's impossible to find her.

The more I search, the more I doubt life.

She is leaving Beijing.

She also took away Lu Minghua who was knocked unconscious by her.

Since you have been expelled from the family tree, you should no longer be burdened by Marquis Yongning.

As soon as he left Shangjing, Gu Rong spread the news that the current emperor had reached an agreement with the Northern Hu, exchanging the three cities north of Luoyue Pass for the Northern Hu's troops. Together with the army led by Marquis Yongning, they would wipe out the northern border troops loyal to Prince Heng.

At the same time, Gu Huai took advantage of the fact that the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion was completely relaxed, quietly stole the Duke of Zhenguo's private seal, and imitated his handwriting to write a secret letter. He disguised himself, rode a fast horse, and rushed to the west overnight.

The Daqian Western Border Army rebelled.

Followed Prince Heng to fight against the fake emperor.

When he woke up, Duke Zheng felt as if the sky had fallen.

The son ran away from home, the private seal was lost, and the army in the western border rebelled.

He raised a son who wanted to kill the whole family!

The only thing to be thankful for is that Gu Huai did not reveal his identity and take over the Western Border Army, and he was able to play dumb.

At this point, we can only hope that the Crown Prince Heng of the North will be able to turn the tide, restore order, rectify the chaos, and get everything back on track.

Otherwise, the Gu family of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion will surely follow in the footsteps of the Xie family.

The war broke out everywhere.

The eyes of the people all over the world are focused on the North.

At this time, Gu Rong also arrived in the north.

"Ah Yan."

A clear and shallow voice filled with laughter.

Xie Yan thought he was hallucinating and looked up in the direction of the sound.

"Ming Dynasty?"

Xie Yan blinked repeatedly, fearing that he was seeing things.

"It's me." Lu Mingchao stretched out his hand to Xie Yan.

Xie Yan's hands seemed to have become rougher.

The corners of Xie Yan's mouth slightly raised, and the murderous aura and coldness emanating from his body instantly dissipated, and a gentle and lingering tenderness emerged in the depths of his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, Xie Yan's eyes became red as he stared at Lu Mingchao again and again.

His gaze fell on Ming Chao's bulging belly, and the guilt in his eyes was beyond words.

He is not a competent husband.

It seems that he has not fulfilled his responsibilities as a husband.

The food, grass and medicinal materials he needed in the north were all continuously supplied by the Ming Dynasty.

Although they were separated by distance, the Ming Dynasty still spared no effort to help him succeed.

What did he do?

It seems like nothing has been done.

"Mingchao, I'm sorry." Xie Yan stretched out his hands and held Lu Mingchao in his arms, choking with sobs.

Lu Mingchao frowned, and suddenly all the novels she had read about chasing wives to the crematorium emerged in her mind.

He poked Xie Yan's hard belly and asked in a cold voice, "There is a woman in the army disguised as a man, fighting alongside you. You have a tacit understanding for a long time, and you have developed feelings for each other?"

"Or will I return to the North and reunite with my childhood sweetheart, tears welling up in my eyes, and rekindle our old friendship?"

"Or is he a hero saving a beautiful woman and giving himself to her?"

"Or did one of your subordinates entrust his daughter to you before his death, asking you to take care of her?"

Are these the most common bridge sections?

Hearing this, Xie Yan was stunned at first, then he lowered his eyes and stared at Lu Mingchao, and remained silent for a long time. Then, a low and brisk laugh slowly came out of his throat.

His shoulders shook slightly, and his chest rose and fell accordingly.

"no."

"Nothing happened."

"There is no white moonlight."

“No hero saves the damsel in distress.”

"No one entrusted his son to me before his death."

"Only you."

"I always remember that you said I must be a man of integrity, otherwise I will end up in the crematorium after my wife."

"There was only you before, and there will only be you in the future."

"Mingchao, when I was young in the northern border, I only thought about competing with my second brother one day. There was no romance."

Lu Mingchao was happy in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He looked up at Xie Yan and asked, "Then why do you say you're sorry to me?"

"I feel deeply that I owe you a lot." Xie Yan raised his hand and brushed the hair that fell from Lu Mingchao's temples behind his ears. "I will never be able to repay you in my lifetime."

"When you were diagnosed with pregnancy, I promised you that I would stay with you, but I broke my promise."

"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have the confidence to raise the banner of rebellion so early."

"Ming Chao, you are the great benefactor of the Xie family."

Lu Mingchao frowned and smiled softly, "I'll make up for it in the future."

"Let's get back to the point. Regarding Xiao Yao's ceding three states to the Northern Hu, have you come up with a plan to deal with it?"

Xie Yan nodded and said, "The Right Xian Wang of the Northern Hu, Ququ, assassinated the Chanyu's three sons in succession, leaving the Chanyu childless."

"The Chanyu is old and it is impossible for him to have any more children."

"At present, the tribes and forces in the north are deeply involved in internal struggles. People are unstable and covet the position of Chanyu. They have no time to look south, let alone gather large-scale troops to invade the northern border defense line."

"Why would King Youxian be assassinated at such a critical moment?" Lu Mingchao was puzzled.

"You guys cooperated?"

Xie Yan said softly, "Prince Youxian's mother was a concubine from the northern border of Daqian. She was abducted by the previous Prince Youxian and taken to the Northern Hu."

"He is actually of Daqian blood."

"When he was young, his mother was tortured to death by the wives and concubines of the previous Northern Hu king Zuoxian."

"Is it credible?" Lu Mingchao asked in a deep voice.

Xie Yan: "Trustworthy."

"I moved his mother's body to Shengyan Pass."

Lu Mingchao asked no more questions.

Xie Yan carefully helped Lu Mingchao sit down and said softly, "Mingchao, the real commander of the Western Border Army is actually Gu Huai."

"He has sent a letter expressing his loyalty and willingness to submit and humbly support orthodoxy."

"The condition he proposed was that after the great cause was successful, Huai Qian would be able to grant you a marriage, allow him to welcome your spirit tablet into the ancestral hall of the Zhenguogong Mansion, and build a cenotaph for you in the ancestral tomb of the Zhenguogong Mansion, using his surname and your name as the title."

Lu Mingchao's mouth twitched and his face was filled with black lines. "No, Gu Huai is sick."

"Whether I live or die has nothing to do with him."

"And you're going to use his surname as my name?"

The Duke of Zhenguo really has a great father.

No matter how much you change your appearance, you can't completely deceive the emperor.

The secret guards around the emperor really surprised her.

"In a few days, he will beg to join forces with the Northern Border Army and attack the capital."

Xie Yan understood the elegant meaning by hearing the sound of the strings.

There is no simple guard for the royal family.

"Ming Chao, do you want to meet Huai Qian?"

Lu Mingchao was a little hesitant. "Now that he has revealed his identity, isn't it inappropriate?"

"He missed you a lot."

Xie Yan gave Lu Mingchao a reassurance.

Xie Huaiqian, also known as Xiao Heng, was a weird and loveless child.

"Then let's meet."

Set things right
