Chapter 111 Qin Ming's Death

Northern Border, Anyang

Li Wei is the confidant and beloved general of Marquis Qin Yue. A few days ago, the Marquis received a pigeon message from the Crown Prince Qin Heng, and asked the second son Qin Yan to lead a team of elite soldiers to the south to meet the prince.

After leaving Anyang City, this elite force was divided into three. Because there are three roads from Chang'an to the northern border. The second son led them directly to the westernmost, which is also the most dangerous road.

When they were three kilometers away from Baihe Town, a scout smelled the blood. They rushed all the way, and on a snowy high ground one kilometer away from Baihe Town, everyone stopped running. All because the scene in front of them was too shocking.

In the snowy world, the sixth son was covered in blood, holding a red tasseled spear in his hand, standing there blankly. At his feet, countless Qiang and Hu soldiers dressed in Han costumes lay.

The snow-white world was stained with blood, which made the world sad.

They realized that they were still late.

Their arrival startled the Sixth Young Master, who glanced at them, then kicked a head and a head flew up from the snow, and he held the hair on it with one hand.

They carefully identified it and found that the head was none other than the head of the Qiang Hu general Bu Jier!

This was incredible. Their northern soldiers were fighting against the powerful enemy at the front line. Where did this Qiang Hu man come from, and how did he pass through their battle line and appear behind them?

The Sixth Young Master ignored his bloodstained robe, holding the red tassel spear in one hand and Bu Jier's head in the other, and came to a corpse.

"Old Four!" Qin Yan recognized the corpse and his eyes turned red. He staggered towards them.

Qin Sheng placed Bu Jier's head next to his fourth brother, squatted down, and slowly closed his angry eyes for him.

"Second brother, I'm late. If I--" Qin Sheng said self-blamingly.

Qin Yan interrupted him, "No, we are all late!"

"Second brother, fourth brother died to save the prince..."

Li Wei followed to the front and heard their conversation. He felt very heavy. They were late. Not only the sixth prince was late, but they were also late.

The prince was kidnapped and transferred by the Qiang and Hu people.

The fourth prince risked his life to save the prince, but he only brought six or seven troops, which was difficult to defeat the enemy. He was eventually shot to death by the enemy. He was hit by several arrows, one of which pierced his chest...

At that time, the sixth prince set out from Chang'an City to catch up with the fourth prince, and traveled 800 miles a day. If the fourth prince had not changed his route, he would have been caught up long ago.

Chasing the fourth prince to Baihe Town, they fought fiercely for a day and killed countless enemies. As seen just now, his right hand holding the red tassel spear trembled unconsciously.

Qin Sheng closed his fourth brother's eyes, tidied up his clothes, and then went to track the Qiang and Hu people. The prince was still in their hands.

It was Qin Yan who stopped him, looked into his eyes, and said word by word, "It is my job to track down the Qiang and Hu people and rescue the prince. And you, what you need to do now is to rush back to Chang'an City and get married!" Don't give the Queen Mother a chance to attack them!

In addition, "You also need to take your fourth brother back to bury him and let him rest in peace."

Qin Sheng's hand holding the red tasseled spear slowly dropped, his eyes red.

Qin Yan stood there and ordered without looking back, "Li Wei, you pick up the four or five parts and follow the sixth son back to Chang'an!"

"Yes!"

"Be obedient and go back to Chang'an!"

Qin Sheng didn't speak, holding the red tasseled spear to a large bluestone, and a set of spear skills were shot smoothly, and the stone foam flew.

When he stopped, he saw the bluestone was written, the place where Qin Ming, the son of Pingxi Hou, died!

"Go!" Qin Yan urged him.

When Qin Sheng carried Qin Ming's body and galloped out, Li Wei hurriedly followed with the selected four or five parts.

Qin Yan jumped on his horse and led his elite troops to chase the direction where the prince was abducted.

Chang'an City, Lu Family

After reading the letter in his hand, Lu Songli looked out the window for a long time without saying a word.

"Ali, what do you want to see Dad about?" Lu Desheng had just returned from the palace and heard his wife say that his daughter was waiting for him in the study. He drank a sip of water and came over.

Lu Songli handed him the letter in his hand.

"What is this?"

"This is the letter just sent by the Qin family."

Lu Desheng opened it and saw that the prince was abducted by the Qiang Hu people? Looking again, the elite troops accompanying him were wiped out.

Seeing this, Lu Desheng took a breath and had a toothache!

When he saw the letter saying that Qin Silang Qin Ming was killed by the Qiang Hu people in Baihe Town for rescuing the prince, he was silent for a long time, then sighed and continued to read. The letter also said that General Qin was sending an elite team to track the Qiang Hu people and rescue the prince.

All this went in the direction they had previously speculated.

"The prince is definitely in danger." Lu Songli felt that with the ruthlessness of the fourth prince, the prince might have died. Only if the prince died, he would have the possibility of succession. So, if it was his arrangement, he would definitely kill the prince as soon as he was caught.

To be honest, she was powerless about the affairs of the northern border. This was really a fight between gods and mortals.

Not only her, but also the Qin family who were involved were equally powerless. Even if the Qin family knew that this was a conspiracy and a trap, what would it matter? Can they still rebel immediately? Difficult. As the saying goes, building high walls and storing up food will take time to become king. If you want to raise an army, you must be prepared. Does the Qin family have it? Moreover, Emperor Kangcheng is in power, and there are many people who support him. Dali is elsewhere, and there are still 300,000 or 400,000 troops. The Qin family has no advantage in rebelling now.

Besides, if the Qin family rebels and turns their guns around, what will happen to the foreign tribes in the north? Will they not resist? If they allow foreign tribes to invade the Central Plains, they will be sinners of the nation and lose the support of the people.

Such a rebellion is rootless and destined to fail.

If the timing is wrong, everything will be in vain.

"Dad, tell me about our emperor's situation." The news she received was sent by Qin Yan from Baihe Town by carrier pigeon at the first time. After Qin Heng received it, he sent it to her. She now needs information from the emperor and needs a basis to re-evaluate their next actions.

"The emperor has been difficult to serve recently..." Lu Desheng began to elaborate on the information he learned in the palace. He now has a deep understanding of the saying that accompanying the emperor is like accompanying a tiger.

After listening carefully, Lu Songli had only one thought, that is, something was wrong with the emperor! She thought again that there might be people of the emperor among the prince's entourage. In other words, the emperor is very likely to have known the news of the prince's abduction, or even updated news.

No more actions!

If the updated news is that the prince is dead, then Emperor Kangcheng is in too much danger now.

He is at the end of his life and is like a wounded tiger. The death of the prince will only stimulate him more. Not to mention what he thinks of the people behind the scenes, he will definitely not let go of those who want to take advantage of this.

At this time, the louder the noise, the more it will attract his attention.

Fortunately, she used the wedding as an excuse when arranging it, and fortunately her operation was very secretive.

After she arranged everything, Lu Songli couldn't help but sigh that the emperor is still the emperor.

Lu Songli was right. Emperor Kangcheng glanced at the Qin and Lu families, and then stared at the Xie and Zhao families. The Qin and Lu families were forced by the queen mother to get married within two months after the marriage was granted, and the wedding date was arranged on the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month. There is nothing wrong. It is understandable to make a big fanfare and want to be lively. After all, the two children were forced together by the queen mother after being disliked. If you want face, make a big show, understand.

But there is something wrong with the Xie and Zhao families. Why are they so anxious to hold a wedding? Is there any conspiracy? Does the prince's matter have anything to do with them?

Perhaps because of suspicion, Emperor Kang Cheng felt that there was something wrong with the Xie and Zhao families. After asking people to take a closer look, there was indeed a problem!

Qin family, after receiving Lu Songli's letter, Qin Heng believed in her judgment and immediately asked people to stop all operations.

At this time, Xie Zhan was secretly led by his former superior in the Zhongshu Province to meet the fourth prince. He was originally a Zhongshu Sheren, and his top superior was Xue Huaimin. With Xue Huaimin's introduction, the two sides had a good conversation.
