Being a Lady of an Influential Family: 536, black heart?

In the middle of the night, under the faint moonlight, the river flows quietly at the foot of the mountain.

Under a tree not far from the riverside, a dark shadow stood quietly, almost blending into the night without moving.

I don't know how long it took, the originally quiet river suddenly heard a slight sound of water. The shadow moved, and a tall and straight man quickly walked out from under the tree and came to the riverside.

The surface of the water was still gloomy, and the man crouched on the edge of the river and leaned over to look at the water in front of him. After a while, the water suddenly splashed, and a figure broke through the water, revealing a beautiful face. Seeing the man squatting by the river, the woman in the water immediately showed a happy smile, "Why are you here?"

The man said, "Wait for you."

The woman blinked, and the river water washed her skin, which had been painted light brown, to reveal its original color, which seemed to glow white in the night.

The wet hair was clinging to the temples, and the water droplets continued to slide down, which made her whole person as pure and moving as the dewdrops in the early morning.

"You know that I will go ashore here?" Leng Sa asked curiously.

Fu Fengcheng did not answer this question, but extended his hand to her, "Come up." In the southern Xinjiang at the end of September, the temperature at night is definitely not warm.

Leng Sa put his hand in his, and went ashore with a little help. The two stood up, and Fu Fengcheng looked at her carefully before taking off his coat and putting it on her, saying, "I brought you dry clothes, go and change and let's go back."

Leng Sa doesn't care much, the southern border is definitely warmer than Jiangnan and the north, so although this temperature is not warm enough, it is not too cold for her. He took out a small bag sealed with oil paper from the bag he was carrying with him and handed it to Fu Fengcheng, "Well, the defense map of the Legion of Glory may not be complete. But I have drawn everything I can."

Fu Fengcheng reached out and took it, "Mrs. Hard work, where are Su Ze and Sang Xi?"

Leng Sa was a little surprised, "You know Sanxi is in my hands?"

Fu Fengcheng smiled, "It's not hard to guess."

Leng Sa was a little disappointed, shrugged and said, "Let Su Ze take him to Yingzhou, and then take a boat back to the six southern provinces. Don't worry, no one will know that Sang Xi is in our hands."

Fu Fengcheng sighed lightly, stretched out his hand and hugged Leng Sa into his arms, "Madam is so powerful that I feel like I'm useless."

Leng Sa struggled to push him, "I have water on me! Young Master Fu, you haven't used your power yet, and no one else will live? But I know that if I were someone else's wife, he would definitely not want to live. ."

Although this world is much more enlightened than in ancient times, not all men can accept that their wives are too powerful.

Let's not say now, even in her previous life, there are still some excellent men who think that women should cook at home and bring children. The reason why women are still required to go out to work is because it is difficult to support a family with one’s income. But women should still unconditionally make concessions for men's careers, or even give up their jobs and promotions.

Young Master Fu was silent for a moment before he said, "If Madam becomes someone else's, I won't be able to live."

Leng Sa raised his head and looked at his handsome face, "Fu Shao speaks so nicely, so we are a natural couple."

"..." I mean it.

The King City of Nile is located in the northeast of Nile, less than 300 kilometers from the border between Nile and Ansha, and less than 700 kilometers from the Ruo River.

Nile's customs and customs are completely different from Anxia's, and they are also different from Anxia's southern border people. Because they originally migrated from some places further west, the southern border was considered a barren land in the early years, and the Anxia people naturally did not have the time to explore places outside the southern border.

In modern times, it has been occupied by foreign Nile people for many years. As for the original native natives, they have become a very small member of the Nile Kingdom, and they can't make any waves at all.

At dawn, in a small building in Nile King City, Xiao Zhu was sitting by the window looking at the sky outside the window.

The horizon has already revealed a touch of fish maw white, apparently dawn has come. Xiao Zhu was holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, but he didn't drink it, he just held it as if he was looking at the sky and thinking about something.

Xiao Yiran pushed the door and entered from the outside, walked to the window and said respectfully, "Sanbo, call from Nanjiang."

On hearing this, Xiao Zhu came back to his senses and glanced sideways at him.

Xiao Yiran handed the telegram to Xiao Zhu, Xiao Zhu looked at the content and raised his eyebrows, "Sasha is really surprising, the daughter-in-law of the Fu family is really married..."

"..." Xiao Yiran was speechless, are you so familiar with others that you are called Sa Sa?

Xiao Zhu glanced at him, "Don't be unconvinced, if your family could marry such a prince and concubine, they might not be able to get to this point."

Xiao Yiran said quickly, "I don't dare." He didn't dare to think of Fu Fengcheng's daughter-in-law, let alone let Leng Sa be his daughter-in-law, no matter which one sounds terrible.

But when I think about it, I can't help but be rude, "Then according to you, if you married such a queen, wouldn't you..."

Xiao Zhu said, "You're thinking too much. I mean that with her at your father and your brothers, you won't be foolish to die. Look at Fu Yucheng, isn't it worthwhile now?"

Xiao Yiran couldn't help covering her heart with a knowing blow, and looked at her third uncle resentfully.

Xiao Zhu didn't want to comfort him, put the teacup in his hand aside and stood up and said, "Sanha killed the king's envoy, and King Nero should have received the news earlier than us."

Xiao Yiran reminded, "It wasn't Sanha who did it."

Xiao Zhu ignored him and continued, "I wonder what King Nile is thinking now?"

Xiao Yiran said: "Probably very angry? But Sanha won't sit still. In case they don't do it cleanly..."

Xiao Zhu smiled, "Even if Sanha caught the real murderer and put it in front of King Nile, he wouldn't believe it. In his heart, he had tacitly agreed that this was what Sanha did. Or , he wants Sanha to do it."

Xiao Yiran frowned, "King Nile wants to use our hands to kill Sanha and the Legion of Glory?" Although the news they found in the past few days in Nilo, the Sanha family did have some signs of provoking the kingship. Even the Legion of Glory didn't take other legions seriously, but as a former prince, Xiao Yiran still didn't take this kind of behavior of attracting foreign powers to destroy his own people.

Xiao Zhu said, "I probably didn't have this idea originally, but it should have been after the Sixth Southern Province Army went to the south to fight." If he could bite off a piece of meat from An Xia smoothly, of course King Nile would like to. . Compared with destroying the Legion of Glory, if the king can expand the territory for the Nile, the prestige of the royal family will inevitably rise, at least in a short time, neither the Legion of Glory nor Sanha dare to act recklessly.

However, after the six southern provinces entered the war, the situation took a turn for the worse, and the Nile Army lost consecutive battles. If you go back in such a sullen manner, King Nero's face will not be bright. Moreover, defeat means that the strength of the king's hands will be damaged. As a result, the power and prestige of the Legion of Glory will inevitably increase greatly. This is the reason why the king sent the Seventeenth Legion to participate in the war at this time.

One is to stop the army of the Sixth Southern Provinces from continuing to advance, the other is that the royal family will have time to restore the loss of troops and horses after the tiger has left the mountain, and the third is to consume the strength of the Seventeenth Legion. Once the Seventeenth Legion goes out, no matter whether it is successful or not, there will inevitably be huge losses. If the vitality is greatly damaged, it is naturally the best.

These are the reasons why the Nile royal family sent Sanha to the expedition, but even if Sanha led the army to expedition to the Nile king, he was still worried, so he hurriedly sent a special envoy.

Sangha knew that the king didn't trust him, and the king knew that Sangha knew he didn't trust him, and now...the envoy was killed just after it arrived.

What does this make the king think?

Xiao Yiran looked at the telegram in his hand and couldn't help sighing, "I only now know how dark this guy Fu Fengcheng is." Although he always thought Fu Fengcheng was dark, he obviously still didn't understand it well enough. Fortunately, he did not choose to fight against Fu Fengcheng, otherwise...

Xiao Zhu nodded in agreement, "The eldest young master of the Fu family...a combination of Arlene's intelligence and Fu Zheng's ruthlessness, is indeed a natural hero. Unfortunately, he seems to be a hegemonic and intrigue in the officialdom. No interest, otherwise... I don't think anyone in your generation is his opponent. This is the blessing of An Xia."

Xiao Yiran shrank his neck and couldn't help but said, "Duke Fu... is ruthless and ruthless?" The person who can become the Overseer will definitely not be a soft-hearted person, but Xiao Yiran has always felt that Governor Fu is a rare thing among the big guys. of brilliance. I didn't expect Dujun Fu to give such an evaluation here at San Bo.

Xiao Zhu glanced at him with a half-smile but not a smile, and said lightly: "Could it be that you thought that such a large territory in the Sixth South Province was given to him for nothing because others thought he was an honest and domineering hero? It wasn't the way it is now."

Xiao Yiran touched her nose a little embarrassedly, "Cough, let's keep talking about business."

Xiao Zhu said: "Go and prepare. After dawn, the king should send someone to invite us into the palace."

Xiao Yiran was a little surprised, "Hasn't the king been refusing to see us these days?"

Xiao Zhu said, "If he really isn't interested at all, he will kick us out of the city on the first day."

Xiao Yiran nodded, "That's right."

The two went back to their rooms to rest for a while, and sure enough, at 8:00 in the morning, they were sitting in the hall eating Nile's special breakfast, and someone came to report that the king invited the gentleman to enter the palace for a chat.

The two looked at each other and saw a clear smile in each other's eyes.

Sanha's life has been very difficult these few days. Because of the death of the special mission, the Nile Royal Guards and other soldiers who were still resting in Anxia have already shown a faint hostility to the Seventeenth Legion.

Now Sanha is not even sure that if he starts a war with the Anxia people on the other side tomorrow, whether these people's guns will be aimed at the enemy or himself.

Therefore, he was more cautious and did not rashly decide to cross the river to fight again.

On the other hand, the news from the country is also very worrying. The death of the special mission has made the royal family angry. Everyone in the Sang family has been under the surveillance of the royal guards and spies, and they may be arrested if they are not careful.

And the worst thing is that because this incident was passed back to China, there were many voices of criticism and opposition against him and their family. This is naturally not just because of this matter, but the accumulation of various dissatisfaction over the years. Coupled with someone secretly guiding it, this broke out.

San-ha admits that he does have some thoughts, but he can guarantee that he has absolutely no idea of ​​confronting the royal family, at least in the short term, but now he is pushed into a dilemma.

Perhaps it was wrong to choose to follow the king's orders from the start. But as a vassal, does he still have the option of not fighting?

San Hajian frowned, anger flared between his brows.

He suddenly froze slightly, and couldn't help remembering the letter that Fu Fengcheng sent over a few days ago. But he quickly put this thought behind him, he would never be fooled by Anxia people!

San-ha doesn't want to be fooled, but someone does.

A day later, bad news came again from the Nile. The king ordered Sanha to hand over command to his deputy and immediately set off to return home to explain the killing of the special mission.

And Sanha received another classified message: The royal family had arrested Sanha's eldest son, Sangu. Seeing the news, Sanha tore the telegram in half on the spot.

While Sang Ha was so angry, Leng Sa and Fu Fengcheng lived a very leisurely and freehand life.

After all, although the two armies are still in confrontation, Sanha obviously has no intention of crossing the river for the time being, and Fu Fengcheng is not in a hurry to cross the river, so the two armies are so deadlocked.

Let's relax a little while letting the soldiers from the six southern provinces take turns guarding the positions along the river. After all, if the nerves are tense for a long time, it is also a very hard thing.

There was nothing to do today, so Leng Sa and Fu Fengcheng rode out to play. Although it is already the end of September, the scenery of southern Xinjiang is still picturesque. With green mountains and green waters, flowers blooming, the bleakness of late autumn cannot be seen at all.

After the army of the six southern provinces drove the Nile people to the other side, the people of Jiangdong have completely returned to their former lives. Probably because the record of the Sixth Province Army in the South was too sturdy, and even before the war was completely over, many people who had fled had already returned.

The people who were unable to escape from their homes were even more delighted, and almost regarded the Southern Sixth Provincial Army as their benefactors.

The two of them rode their horses all the way, and from time to time they saw many people in full costumes walking on the road with a basket on their backs and smiling faces. They all wore casual clothes when they came out, and these passers-by only regarded them as ordinary outsiders. Some of the brave ones would greet the two of them and invite them to the town in front of them to participate in their festival.

Then the two of them learned that today is the local Lantern Festival in southern Xinjiang. This is a local festival in southern Xinjiang. Although there are similar festivals in other places in Anxia, ​​the dates and customs are different.

In southern Xinjiang, this is a big festival second only to the Chinese New Year, or it can be said that it is a day when big girls and big boys in southern Xinjiang have a collective blind date.

Unlike the Central Plains region, which has always been a matchmaker for parents, the folk customs in southern Xinjiang are open. Every year, unmarried girls and boys can get together to see each other. marriage.

Of course, this kind of festival is not only attended by unmarried girls and boys. Married people, even the elderly and children will join in the fun together. After all, the more people there are, the better.

It happened that the distance was not too far, Leng Sa and Fu Fengcheng looked at each other and followed them all the way to the town.

This is just a small town, and the whole town is only two short streets. However, outside the town, there are already crowds of people with lanterns and lanterns. It is said that people from a radius of dozens of miles will come here to participate in the lantern festival.

Looking at people's cheerful smiles, it doesn't look like a place that has just experienced war.

Leng Sa and Fu Fengcheng are both very busy people. It seems that it has been two years since the last time they participated in such an event, so Leng Sa is rarely interested.

I bought a set of clothes for a local woman in southern Xinjiang from the town. When night fell, Leng Sa took Fu Fengcheng and hurried out of the town along the crowd.

In a large open space outside the town, there are all kinds of lanterns hanging around, and there are many guys holding all kinds of lanterns in their hands.

The girls are all dressed in their best clothes, and they are all beautiful and attractive at first glance.

Leng Sa took Fu Fengcheng's hand and walked through the crowd, watching the dragon and lion dances here and the juggling there. Although there were many outsiders at this lantern festival, their outstanding appearance still attracted the attention of many men and women.

Leng Sa is wearing a long red embroidered dress she just bought, her hair is braided into small braids tied with colorful threads, and she also wears a headdress made of various colored beads on her head, although they are all very cheap The things are still dazzling and beautiful.

Leng Sa looked around, "Should we buy a lamp for the scenery?"

It seems that many people are carrying colorful lanterns in their hands, some of which are very delicate and beautiful, no worse than those in the six southern provinces.

Without waiting for Fu Fengcheng to say anything, a young man with a delicate peacock lantern came over and shyly handed his lantern to Leng Sa, "Girl, do you like my lantern? ?" The pretty girl kept looking at his lamp, and his heart was pounding a little bit.

Leng Sa blinked and hesitated, "Give it to me?"

The young man nodded, hesitating coldly, "How much is it, or I'll..." This lamp doesn't seem cheap.

Before she could finish speaking, Fu Fengcheng had already pulled her behind him, glanced at the young man and said, "She doesn't like it."

“…”

"..." Leng Sa looked at Fu Fengcheng, don't I like it?

Before she could refute, Master Fu had already covered her mouth with one hand and said to the young man, "I will give it to her if she likes it, you can give it to someone else."

"Oh." The young man walked away holding the lamp in frustration, he knew that he didn't have such good luck.

"Haha." Leng Sa just pulled away Master Fu's hand covering his mouth, and before he could speak, he heard a familiar laughter behind him, "Madam, if you pick up the light, today You won't be able to get out of this place later."
