Xu Fengnian: Your Highness, rest assured, my sister will definitely marry you!

Xu Fengnian got up and followed Ying Changqing to the stone table.

He was breathing heavily, awaiting the truth about his mother's death.

He clenched his fists and stared at Ying Changqing.

"Whom does the rise of Northern Liang threaten?"

Ying Changqing's question startled Xu Fengnian. He frowned and said, "Great Qin, Northern Mang..."

But he immediately shook his head.

"The Northern Barbarians are very strong. Without Liyang's support, the Northern Liang cavalry cannot defeat them."

"Even if we win, we will suffer heavy losses."

"The Qin Dynasty borders the Northern Liang Dynasty. The terrain there is rugged, allowing only small groups of troops to pass through; large armies cannot."

"The Liyang Dynasty can't defeat the Great Qin, but it doesn't take the Northern Liang seriously."

Xu Fengnian suddenly remembered the reason for his three-year journey and the actions of Zhao Huangchao of the Liyang royal family yesterday.

He said coldly, "It's Li Yang!"

"That's right, it's Li Yang."

After Ying Changqing confirmed it, Xu Fengnian's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "Li Yangqian's?"

"My father fought for Liyang for half his life and never rebelled. Why did Liyang kill my mother?"

Ying Changqing looked at the "naive" Xu Fengnian and sneered: "Whether your father has rebellious intentions or not is not important."

"The important thing is that he has the ability to rebel, and that is his sin!"

Xu Fengnian's face was filled with grief and indignation, and his eyes were filled with shock.

Ying Changqing ignored his anger and continued speaking.

"The murderer who killed your mother, Wu Su, is Emperor Liyang."

"When Princess Wu Su became pregnant again, the Imperial Astronomical Bureau predicted in advance that it would be a boy."

"Li Yang can tolerate Xu Xiao, but he cannot tolerate him having an heir."

"More importantly, the Imperial Observatory observed that the child was the reincarnation of the True Martial Emperor, and the Yin Academy also determined that the Northern Liang would control the Northwest."

"Legend has it that the True Martial Emperor was born in Northern Liang eight hundred years ago."

"If Liyang wants to unify the world, he must not allow Beiliang to grow stronger and must keep it under his control."

"Therefore, the Liyang royal family was very wary of Princess Wu Su's child, and they decided to get rid of Wu Su and the child."

……

"Liyang!"

Xu Fengnian's veins bulged, his eyes were bloodshot and filled with hatred, and he was trembling with rage.

Xu Fengnian roared in a low voice, and Ying Changqing nodded in satisfaction.

"This is very simple. The lineage of the Xu family, the King of Northern Liang, has been severed."

"The old emperor Zhao Chun of Liyang was the mastermind, and the strategist Yuan Benxi was the one who devised the plan."

"At that time, the Xu family army was only 300 li away from the capital of Western Chu. Xu Xiao received four urgent imperial edicts in one day, and was forced to go to the capital to receive his title."

"After Xu Xiao arrived in Kyoto, the sick tiger Yang Taisui used drinking as an excuse to delay him."

"Empress Zhao Zhi told your mother, Wu Su, that Xu Xiao is in danger in the capital and that she should go there alone."

"As you know, your mother, Wu Su, broke through to the realm of a terrestrial immortal, fought her way through the shadow assassins employed by Liyang, and gave birth to you, Xu Fengnian."

"After that, she fell seriously ill and passed away after giving birth to your younger brother, Xu Longxiang."

"That's all I know, believe it or not."

Xu Fengnian had no doubt that Beiliang had indeed investigated this matter over the years.

After listening to Ying Changqing's account, he immediately compared the clues he had with Ying Changqing's words.

The truth immediately became clear, and everything was completely consistent.

"The Liyang royal family, the Zhao family!"

Unable to control his grief, Xu Fengnian suddenly vomited blood from his mouth.

At the same time, it roared angrily at the sky.

Jian Jiuhuang, who was outside the courtyard, looked worried when he heard Xu Fengnian's roar.

He hurriedly asked, "Your Highness, are you alright?"

Hearing Lao Huang's concern, Xu Fengnian calmed down a little and forced himself to reply, "It's nothing, Lao Huang."

"I'm doing well, and I've never felt so focused on my goals!"

Xu Fengnian shouted, each word distinct and hoarse, his voice trembling with rage, blood trickling from between his teeth from the force he used.

He knelt down before Ying Changqing again and kowtowed three times.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for revealing the truth. Otherwise, my father and I would have been deceived by the Zhao family forever."

"The Liyang Dynasty, I will make them pay for their crimes in blood!"

Ying Changqing remained expressionless and used his inner strength to help Xu Fengnian up.

"No need to thank me right away. There are conditions to telling you the truth."

"Your Highness, do you remember what I said yesterday?"

Xu Fengnian was confused; yesterday he thought Ying Changqing was joking.

"Are you referring to your brother-in-law's matter?"

Ying Changqing nodded: "I heard your sister, Xu Zhihu, is getting married and moving to Jiangnan. Has she left yet?"

Xu Fengnian nodded: "Yes."

"This marriage should have been completed a few years ago, because Liyang Jiangnan and Qingzhou are adjacent."

"Emperor Kangxi of Qingzhou was particularly fond of Jiangnan and repeatedly sent troops to attack the Jiangnan border of Liyang."

"My father postponed the wedding due to the war in Jiangnan."

"Recently, Liyang and Qingting reached an agreement, the situation has stabilized, and my eldest sister is preparing to go to Jiangnan."

Ying Changqing truly wanted to marry Xu Fengnian's second sister, Xu Weixiong.

Her intelligence and support far surpassed Xu Zhihu's.

However, the reality is not optimistic; Xu Weixiong is not Xu Xiao's biological daughter.

If Ying Changqing were to take over Beiliang, he would not be able to convince the people of his legitimacy.

In addition, Ying Changqing was worried that Xu Fengnian would lose his support after Xu Weixiong married him.

After Xu Xiao's death, they may be defeated by Li Yang and will not receive reinforcements.

Therefore, Ying Changqing chose Xu Zhihu.

Xu Zhihu is the red-clothed figure that Hong Xixiang, the reincarnation of Lü Zu, has been searching for for hundreds of years.

No one can stop me, not even Lü Zu.

"My condition is that your eldest sister marries me, thus forming a marriage alliance between Northern Liang and Great Qin!"

"If Beiliang needs help in the future, Daqin will provide support, but Beiliang must break away from Liyang and pledge allegiance to Daqin."

After Ying Changqing put forward his conditions, Xu Fengnian immediately agreed.

It doesn't matter who Beiliang belongs to; Qin is also the legitimate successor of the Central Plains. Xu Fengnian only thinks about revenge.

From Ying Changqing's interactions with his maids and Dongjun, it can be seen that he cherishes all women, and even his maids are not mistreated.

Ying Changqing was of noble status, a prince of a kingdom, and also possessed great power and perfect looks.

These factors completely reassured Xu Fengnian.

"Don't worry, brother-in-law."

"The marriage between my eldest sister and Jiangnan was a political deal; they had no feelings for each other."

"So even if my father disagrees, I will insist on sending my eldest sister to Da Qin."

Ying Changqing nodded in satisfaction, then waved and said, "Let's go, I won't see you off."

"Nangong Pu She is very useful to me, I want to keep him by my side."

"You don't need to worry about your safety. With Lao Huang around, no one can hurt you."

Upon hearing this, Xu Fengnian asked curiously, "Brother-in-law, yesterday at Miaotai Peak, Old Huang only revealed his martial arts skills to protect me."

"When I asked him why, he wouldn't tell the truth."

"Just how powerful is Lao Huang? Is he a peerless master?"

After saying that, Xu Fengnian put on a flattering expression.

He even personally picked up the teapot on the stone table, poured a cup of tea for Ying Changqing, and respectfully handed it over.

Ying Changqing took the teacup and took a sip.

"Old Huang, whose real name is Huang Zhentu, is the Sword Emperor of Western Shu, and is known in the martial arts world as Sword Nine Huang."

"His cultivation level is extremely high, reaching the realm of a terrestrial immortal."

"In the martial arts world, apart from those reclusive masters, no one can defeat him."

Xu Fengnian heard that Lao Huang was a master of the Land Immortal Realm.

But he immediately remembered that in the past two years, whenever they encountered bandits, Lao Huang had always run faster than him, and he immediately got angry.

"Old Huang, how dare you play me!"

Xu Fengnian shouted and rushed out the door.

Old Huang's piercing shouts immediately came from outside the door.
