Zhou Shen was amazed after hearing Fengling's explanation.
He admired: "Fourth brother is amazing."
Fengling glanced at him.
Zhou Shen quickly said: "Miss Su Qi is also amazing."
Fengling thought that was more or less the same. He did admit that his brother-in-law was great, but her sister was also great. Without her prescription, how could it have gone so smoothly?
If she hadn't been seriously injured and unable to use force, her sister would have been able to break into the military camp along with her.
Zhou Shen looked back at Su Rong's carriage and suddenly asked Fengling, "You call me fourth brother...brother-in-law?"
He wanted to know when his fourth brother became someone else's brother-in-law.
Fei Ling nodded, "The fourth young master asked my sister for a marriage certificate. We have made a mutual agreement, so he will naturally be my brother-in-law."
Zhou Shen was shocked, "Didn't Miss Su Qi have an engagement with Second Young Master Ye? How could she give my fourth brother a marriage certificate again?"
It wasn't that he was thinking to the left, but he really thought about Su Rong's identity as the princess of Nanchu and the future king of Nanchu. Would she want to hug her from left to right?
Fengling was so smart. One look at Zhou Shen's expression and she guessed what he was thinking. He was silent for a moment and explained, "My sister broke off the engagement with Mr. Ye before he left the capital."
Zhou Shen breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that the engagement was broken off. He was not a gossip, but he was still very surprised, "Why?"
The second son of Nanchu Ye Xiangfu Ye Guixue was outstanding in character and appearance. He had also seen him before. At that time, the fourth brother was depressed all day long because of him. Su Rong and the fourth brother broke off their engagement and got engaged in the blink of an eye. It's snowing at night. There are no fools in the Duke Protector's Palace. Although she feels sorry for her fourth brother, from Su Rong's point of view, there is nothing wrong with her choosing Ye Guixue. After all, the Duke Protector's Palace cannot give her the same benefits as the Prime Minister Ye's Palace in Nanchu. Compared with Ye Guixue, family background, etc., the fourth brother has no advantage.
Fei Ling sighed, "What else could it be? It's my sister who is soft-hearted towards the Fourth Young Master! She doesn't want the Fourth Young Master to follow her without a name or status, and be laughed at if the news spreads."
"So, she broke off Ye Guixue's marriage?" Zhou Shen was surprised.
Fengling nodded, "Yeah."
Zhou Shen was speechless for a moment. If he had to choose anyone in this matter, after weighing the pros and cons based on human instinct, he should choose Ye Guixue. It wasn't because Zhou Gu was his fourth brother that he felt Su Rong had to choose. he. But now that Su Rong chooses him, it can be expected that it is equivalent to giving up the support of Ye Xiangfu.
It's obvious how difficult it is.
He looked a little more solemn and said, "The seventh lady treats the fourth brother well, and the Lord Protector will go through fire and water without hesitation."
Feng Ling smiled, "That's not necessary. My sister has fallen in love with her brother-in-law. What's more, the brother-in-law also saved my sister's life a few days ago. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy for my sister to give him a marriage certificate and tie him up now. live."
If she had put aside Su Rong's thoughts after breaking off her engagement with Ye Guixue, she would have waited until Zhou Gu was really determined to stay with her in Nanchu, then she would take action and tie him up. After all, once Being tied up is a matter of a lifetime. There is really no turning back on the path that Young Master Zhou of the Protector of the Country has set.
As expected, Zhang Ping quickly captured Qingshan City and Longxi County, then rested for a day before marching into the capital.
Zhang Ping was invincible here, marching all the way and attacking the city. Due to the small number of troops in each city, he almost effortlessly allowed the city lords to surrender and kill them.
Therefore, Zhang Ping felt that it was imperative for him to capture the capital.
On this day, he led his troops into Changzhou.
Halfway through the journey, a group of 40,000 people came from the diagonal side. After being joined by spies, they reported to Zhang Ping that they were the Third Young Master.
Zhang Ping was surprised, "Lao San? Why is he here?"
The spy shook his head, "It is indeed the Third Young Master."
Zhang Ping ordered the army to stop marching and asked Zhang Yun to come and see him.
Zhang Yun was wearing a thick cloak and his face was pale. He coughed as he walked. He came to Zhang Ping and knelt on the ground with a pale face. "Father, my son didn't expect that he would still be alive to see his father..."
After he finished speaking, he knelt on the ground and burst into tears.
Zhang Ping frowned, "What's going on? Why are you crying? Why are you looking like this?"
Zhang Ping has many sons, and there is no shortage of them. Except for giving some special respect to Zhang Mao, who is both the eldest son and the legitimate son, he treats the other sons as tools. Those who are capable and can help him do things will be paid more attention to. For one or two points, if you have no ability, just let them fend for themselves.
Zhang Yun, his son, is naturally capable. He uses Zhang Yun very smoothly, and Zhang Yun is also easy to use, which makes him care about Zhang Yun a little more. But it's only two points, no more.
Zhang Yun cried bitterly, seeming very sad and speechless.
"What's going on? You tell me!" Zhang Ping asked a few questions, then became impatient and got angry.
Zhang Yun looked up at Zhang Ping, his vision went dark, he fainted and fell to the ground.
Zhang Ping was shocked and called out quickly, "Come here, call the doctor."
The doctor came quickly. After checking Zhang Yun's pulse, he withdrew his hand in shock, "General, the third young master was poisoned by a strong poison, because he had just detoxified not long ago, and the detoxification method was too radical, and it seemed to have hurt his body. And he failed. I was too tired to take a good rest, and I was too sad for a while, which hurt my heart, so I fell into a coma..."
What Zhang Ping said when he stopped him was only related to what he cared about, "Can you take care of yourself?"
The doctor replied: "If you take good care of it for a year and a half, it can still be well, but the bones in your body will be very weak in the future."
Zhang Ping waved his hand upon hearing this, "Then lift it down and take care of it carefully and let him take good care of him."
The doctor nodded, and someone came to lift Zhang Yun and take him down.
Zhang Ping didn't ask anything from Zhang Yun, but he had no shortage of people to ask, so he ordered people to call the people who followed Zhang Yun and asked him, "What happened? How did he get poisoned?"
This man quickly told how his young master helped Nangong Yu kill Su Rong. When he saw that the second master did not attack Nanping City because the eldest master did not attack Nanping City, he was anxious. For the sake of the general's great cause, he went to the northern Hebei military camp to urge the second master to help him, but he did not expect that Before the second master could make up his mind, Zhou Gu led his men to break into the Jibei military camp at night, killed the fifth master, seriously injured the second master and the third master, and then the Jibei army was poisoned and so on. Finally, the second master was killed and ten men were killed. Tens of thousands of Northern Hebei troops were injured and unable to move. It was the Third Young Master who desperately led a group of capable men and horses to fight out of Nanping City. However, on the way, they encountered reinforcements sent by the court to Nanping. They were soldiers and horses from the Protector's Palace. , he was poisoned, so he fought his way out with his men, held his breath, and joined the general.
Zhang Ping was stunned after hearing the whole story. He was shocked, angry and anxious. His blood and blood rushed to his heart. His face changed in vain. He grabbed the man and said, "What did you say? Zhang Cheng is dead? The 200,000 Northern Hebei Army was defeated? We didn't attack." Nanping didn't say anything? Why did he also bring in hundreds of thousands of troops?"
The man nodded heavily, "General, the second master is too indecisive. My young master tried his best, but he almost died."
