Chapter 595: Six Hundred and Six: Responding to the Challenge, All Parties Are in Turmoil

"Qingqing, come with me." Yang Xian shook his head lightly and walked into the study.

Yang Qingqing quickly followed.

After entering the study, Yang Qingqing was the first to speak: "Dad, why did you ask General Jiang to organize his troops?"

"King Chong's coalition forces have faced Chen Jun, and Fengzhou has fallen into the hands of King Huai." Yang Xian waved his hand gently, and the door of the study was closed.

Yang Qingqing was stunned. Although she didn't pay much attention to these things, she knew a thing or two about who made these things too sensational. She immediately said, "Daddy, are you going to send troops to assist Chen Jun?"

After finishing speaking, Yang Qingqing continued: "But didn't daddy say before that he would not participate in the fight between them?"

"Now it doesn't mean that you won't participate if you don't want to participate." Yang Xian sighed and said.

"Why?" Yang Qingqing didn't understand.

But Yang Xian asked another thing: "Qingqing, do you really dislike Jiang Yu? Although he is a few years older than you, he has good character and is the best choice. The most important thing is that he only loves Jiang Yu. You alone, because of you, he has not married yet. "

"He is a nice guy, but I just don't like him. I try to accept him in my heart, but every time I see him, I want him to stay away from me. And he is a manly man. Even if he doesn't join the army and make contributions, he will still be there all day long. I can't stand it if you just hang around me." When Yang Qingqing mentioned Jiang Yu, her whole body felt dizzy.

"Since you don't like him, then dad won't force you to marry him." Yang Xian said.

"real?"

Hearing this, Yang Qingqing's face lit up, and she quickly stepped forward and hugged Yang Xian's arm, shaking it gently: "I knew that Daddy was the best to me."

You know, Jiang Li is not only Yang Xian's top general, but also Yang Xian's best friend.

When Yang Xian first took office in Shu Mansion, he had no team of his own. It was Jiang Li who helped him start from scratch and develop step by step to what he is today.

Yang Xian can control Shu Mansion, and Jiang Li is definitely the number one hero.

So Yang Xian has always thought about marrying Yang Qingqing to Jiang Li's son.

"Really." Yang Xian pulled his arm away, came to the desk, and said softly: "Since you don't want to marry, I have no choice but to let Teng Luo marry you."

Hearing this, Yang Qingqing was stunned for a moment. Teng Luo was from her mother's side and her cousin, three years younger than her.

After being confused for a while, Yang Qingqing suddenly said angrily: "Dad, you force me!"

Yang Qingqing felt that her father was using her cousin to force her to marry Jiang Yu obediently.

Yang Xian frowned immediately, slapped the desk in front of him, and said sternly: "When you were thirteen, I wanted to betroth you to Jiang Yu. You said you were still young and would wait a few years, so I agreed. you.

Later, when you became an adult and I mentioned this matter again, you still tried to prevaricate me, but I ignored you again. Now, you say you don't want to marry him, but I still agree to you. If I really force you, you will be the daughter-in-law of the Jiang family on the day you come of age. "

"But you can't let Teng Luo marry him." Yang Qingqing's eyes were a little red, feeling that she had harmed her cousin.

"Why not?" Yang Xian asked back.

"Tengluo doesn't like him."

"You are not Teng Luo. How do you know that Teng Luo doesn't like Jiang Yu? In addition, when General Jiang's eldest daughter and youngest daughter married your eldest brother and second brother, did they also fall in love with your eldest brother and second brother? The Yang family has won the Jiang family. "Two daughters, if you don't agree to marry Jiang Yu, I already feel very sorry for General Jiang. How can I ruin the marriage again?" Yang Xian said.

"I'm going to marry you. Isn't it enough for me to marry Jiang Yu?" Yang Qingqing couldn't bear it anymore and started to cry. She felt that her father was still forcing her with the vine.

"It's late. Do I have other plans for your marriage?" Seeing his daughter crying, Yang Xian's expression weakened again and he said softly, "Daddy will betroth you to a great hero in the world."

Yang Qingqing looked at his father blankly: "Dad, what are you going to say?"

"I didn't say before that I won't participate if I don't want to participate now. You asked why. Now I can answer you. This battle in Huaizhou will determine the biggest overlord in the world," Yang Xian said.

Yang Qingqing didn't fully understand.

"If the coalition forces of Lu Sheng and Prince Chong win, I will ask General Jiang to send troops to assist the coalition forces and give Chen Mo the final blow. At that time, I will betroth you to either Lu Sheng or Prince Chong's son. If Chen Mo wins, I will ask General Jiang to send troops to assist Chen Jun, and then I will betroth you to Chen Mo."

After saying that, Yang Xian turned around. These words were indeed a bit cruel to Yang Qingqing. In the whole matter, he treated her as a tool. Yang Xian also knew it, so he turned his back and didn't look at her.

Hearing this, Yang Qingqing's delicate body trembled and she couldn't help but take two steps back. Then she stumbled and fell to the ground, her heart shocked.

Whether it was Lu Sheng, Crown Prince Chong, or Chen Mo, they all had wives, and betrothing yourself to any one of them would be a concubine.

Putting aside the aspect of whether she has a good impression or not, Yang Qingqing cannot accept just being a concubine.

"Why?" Yang Qingqing glared at Yang Xian with red eyes.

"How can there be so many reasons?" At the moment when Yang Qingqing fell to the ground, Yang Xian actually turned around and wanted to help him, but he still held back. He still turned his back and said:

"When you grow up, I give you whatever you want. You enjoy all the best resources without worries or scruples. That's because there is a powerful group that is supplying and backing you. And this group If it is gone, everything you enjoy will no longer exist. Now, it is your turn to pay for this group.”

Yang Xian dotes on Yang Qingqing very much.

But in the face of interests, everything can be sacrificed.

It is true that with Yang Xian's own strength and his power in Shu Mansion, no matter he chooses to defect to either side before the decisive battle, or to the upper side after the decisive battle, he will be treated politely and there is no need to sacrifice his daughter at all.

And the reason why he did this was just to get more benefits from it.

In his heart, what he hoped was not that Chen Jun, with whom he was an ally, would win, but that King Chong's coalition would win.

There are many voices in the coalition. Even if they defeat Chen Mo, they will not come together in the end, and they will probably fight again with an uneven division of the spoils.

And he can fish in troubled waters, and maybe he can take Fengzhou as his own.

As for Chen Jun, Chen Mo alone has the final say. He is too unified to allow him to fish in troubled waters.

…

the other side.

Jiang Zhai.

As soon as he returned to his house, Jiang Li said to Jiang Yu, "Don't go looking for her again in the future."

"Why?" Jiang Yu was confused. In his heart, Yang Qingqing would be his wife sooner or later. Not only did he think so, but everyone in Hongdu City thought so.

"When we were in Yang Mansion just now, my lord told me about wisteria." Jiang Li said.

Jiang Yu was smart and said immediately: "Master Wei Wei wants to break the marriage?"

"I just mentioned it verbally, how can I break the marriage? And I guess what you are thinking is that you want to betroth Wisteria to you, and the marriage is still intact." Jiang Li said.

"Why, it's okay to just change someone. Does Qingqing hate me so much?" Jiang Yu said in frustration. He really liked Yang Qingqing.

"This has nothing to do with Qingqing. Although the adults dote on her, she cannot make the final decision on marriage matters."

"Is that what the adults mean? Why, is there something about me that makes me tired of the adults?" Jiang Yu didn't understand.

Jiang Li shook his head: "No, it has nothing to do with you, but to do with the war in Huaizhou."

…

After Chen Mo arrived in Xiongmen County, the eyes of many forces were immediately paying attention to Huaizhou, looking forward to and nervous as to when they would have a big battle.

In the barracks in the city.

Chen Mo does not live in the Yamen. At this moment, he is practicing the Shenran method over and over again, which is the advanced version of the Lingran Xuan Gong.

At this time, Xia Zhining walked into the tent and reported: "The enemy is sending people to survey the terrain on Songjiapo. It seems that they are going to challenge us."

Chen Mo, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, slowly opened his eyes, exhaled a breath of extremely hot turbid air from his mouth, and said: "It seems that the other party is indeed hiding something. There must be more than just two top-grade warriors on the surface."

After all, if they want to challenge, it means that the other party must have the ability to compete.

If you can't beat me, who will fight you? Isn't this a way to get yourself killed?

"Are you sure?" Xia Zhining couldn't help but asked with worry on her face.

"It's hard to say now, after all, no one has seen it yet." Chen Mo said, suddenly thought of something, and said: "If the enemy joins the fight and the battle starts, you should be more careful and don't stand forward. They are also dressed the same as ordinary soldiers. I am worried that the other party will behead them. If you are dressed too special and too far forward, it will be very dangerous. "

After all, he didn't know how many high-grade warriors the other party was hiding. If he was responsible for stepping forward and involved, and there was a high-grade warrior hiding in the dark and shooting secret arrows, he would have no way to take care of others.

In other words, when the melee breaks out, it will be difficult for him to protect Xia Zhining.

And these words made Xia Zhining feel anxious. She was not worried about herself, but worried about Chen Mo's safety at some point.

Because he couldn't take care of himself when he said it, he expressed from the side that he couldn't take charge of the overall situation like before.

And in this case, there are too many variables.

There are too many variables, and there are even more dangers.

She sat next to Chen Mo, took the initiative to hold Chen Mo's hand, nodded obediently, and then said, "Promise me."

"What?" Chen Mo was stunned.

"I said just in case, just in case you are not their opponent." As she said this, Xia Zhining's tone became heavier, then she raised her head, staring at Chen Mo closely with a pair of beautiful eyes, and said:

"When that time comes, just run away. Don't worry about others, and don't worry about me. My sister, Nuo'er, and Youyou are all waiting for you to go back at home. With your strength, if a person wants to leave, they It can’t be stopped.”

Chen Mo was stunned for a moment, then held her hand and said with a smile, "It's not that serious."

"I'm serious." Xia Zhining said seriously.

"I'm serious too." Chen Mo looked seriously into Xia Zhining's eyes and said: "Don't say it won't get to that point. If it does get there, I won't abandon you. I can't abandon you all to escape alone. This kind of thing comes out.”

Hearing this, Xia Zhining's heart was deeply touched, her eyes as bright as stars became as moist as water, and a lot of attachment appeared, even an iron block could melt away, and she said: "Don't take advantage of it, with your talent , saving your life is the key, there is always a chance for revenge.”

"Don't worry, if it really comes to that point, I'm sure to protect you all and escape." Chen Mo reached out and touched Xia Zhining's shoulder, gently scratching her back with his fingers.

It's rare to see Xia Zhining like this.

As soon as he finished speaking, there were footsteps outside the tent.

"Master Marquis, the enemy has accepted our letter of challenge and will fight us at Songjiapo in three days." Sun Meng's voice sounded.

Chen Mo felt Xia Zhining's delicate body tremble in her arms and said, "I know."

After Sun Meng's footsteps faded away, Xia Zhining said, "The enemy is indeed hiding something. Maybe Lu Sheng is in He County."

"Whether he is there or not, we will know in three days." Chen Mo's eyes flashed, and he clenched his fists. In his heart, he hoped that he was really there.

After saying that, he let go of Xia Zhining and prepared to continue practicing, but he didn't expect that Xia Zhining caught his weakness.

Chen Mo took a breath and said, "Zhi Ning, what are you doing?"

"I thought about it."

Xia Zhining hugged Chen Mo's neck and took the initiative to kiss him.

You know, when Chen Mo and Xia Zhining were together, it was usually Chen Mo who took the initiative, and the latter rarely took the initiative.

For such requests, Chen Mo often accepted them.

After a deep kiss, Chen Mo was about to raise his hand to untie Xia Zhining's clothes, but he saw that the other party suddenly stood up.

Just when Chen Mo was puzzled, Xia Zhining suddenly knelt in front of him, like a pet longing for the owner's love.

Chen Mo just reached out to touch her face, but she sucked his finger.

Chen Mo: "..."

"Don't move, I'll do it." Xia Zhining said, and her black hair fell down.

...

A planet can't stop rotating without one person.

Similarly, it's impossible not to announce the results of the provincial examination just because Huaizhou is at war.

Not only should it be released, but it should be released in advance to stabilize people's hearts.

Linzhou, Xiangyang.

With hundreds of people working overtime to review and check, the three examination papers of the candidates were finally corrected, and the qualified candidates were divided into two grades, A and B.

A is the best, and B is the second.

There are only 20 people in the A grade, and more than 300 people in the B grade.

There are 400 places in total.

Then a notice was posted to announce the time of the announcement.

On the day of the announcement, all the candidates in Xiangyang gathered at the door of the examination room, some were looking forward to it, some were nervous, and some prayed for God's blessing.

It seems that the court's decision to punish Chen Mo as a traitor did not have much impact.

"Brother Sun, are you nervous?" Sun Cheng's friend tightly grasped Sun Cheng's arm. He did not return to Jiangdong in the end and chose to stay.

Sun Cheng shook his head and said confidently: "I said, I, Sun Cheng, will definitely be on the list, and definitely among the top."

However, his words did not cause ridicule from the people around him, and few people paid attention to him, because all eyes were fixed on Chen Xiu and others who came out of the examination room, with eager eyes.
