    all gone¡­¡­

    Brother Chen Ran, Brother Yang Yu, and Wu Heng

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of all the brothers who have been by my side since I was young, all of them are gone, and in the end, I am the only one left

    By the pool in the back garden of Guangling City Guards House, Liu Qing sat on the stone railing, blankly looking at the jubilant fish swimming in the pool.

    "It's over"

    Liu Qing raised her head and tried her best to prevent the tears from flowing down her eyes, and murmured.

    At this time, a figure appeared behind her. This person leaned on the railing, stared at the fish in the pond with clear eyes, and said with a smile, "Ah, it's over!"

    "" Liu Qing turned around and glanced at the person who came, and found that it was His Highness the Thirteenth Prince of the Liu family of the Southern Tang Dynasty Royal Family. According to his seniority, she had to address the man as uncle, Liu Yan.

    "Are you referring to the secret agreement between you and Li Xian?" Liu Qing snorted coldly and said with a bit of sarcasm, "His Royal Highness Liu Yan, 'King Annan'!"

    "Huh?" Liu Yan was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile, "Haha, the information is really well-informed! - Did Mr. Xie tell you this?" As he said that, he blinked meaningfully.

    Seeing this, Liu Qing felt her face turn red and hurriedly defended, "How could it be him! - Dianying and E Yi told me!"

    "Oh" Liu Yan nodded in sudden realization, then sighed and said, "It seems that in Zhou Jun's eyes, you are already one of our own!"

    "What do you want to say?" Liu Qing's expression changed slightly, and she said angrily, "No matter what, I can't be as good as you, my good uncle! - In the private agreement signed with Li Xian, you must have  It¡¯s a lot of profit, right?!¡±

    Liu Yan obviously heard a strong smell of gunpowder from Liu Yan's words, but he didn't care. He took a breath and said with a smile, "Yes, it is indeed a lot of profit! - Not only after being sealed,  With the title of 'Annan King', you can also get a mansion to live in Jijing. I think you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life. The only regret is that I may really have to say goodbye to those sisters in Jiangnan Red House this time"

    Seeing Liu Yan lamenting over it, even though Liu Qing had been angry before, she couldn't help but chuckle and said with a bit of sarcasm, "I, the only crown prince of the Liu family of the Southern Tang Dynasty, are just a little bit like this."  Are you going to make a living? - No wonder you and Xie An get along so well, they are the same as each other!"

    "Haha, how dare I dare to express my gratitude to you?" Liu Yan smiled and waved his hands, looking ashamed.

    Liu Qing was angry and funny in her heart, and mocked, "Do you think I'm praising you?"

    "Eh? Isn't it?" Liu Yan blinked, with a deliberately confused look on his face.

    Seeing that Liu Yan was pretending to be stupid, Liu Qing was not in the mood to ridicule him anymore. After taking a slight breath, she whispered, "Li Xian, he is planning to raise you in Jijing, right? Thirteenth Emperor's Uncle?"  "

    Liu Yan was stunned when he heard this, then smiled bitterly, nodded and said, "Ah! My origin means that Li Xian will never place me in Jiangnan. In order to prevent misfortune, I am afraid that I can only live in Jijing in this life.  Such a small place that my eyes can reach"

    "Hate?"

    "Hate?" Liu Yan smiled in astonishment, then shook his head and said, "Is this inevitable? Li Xian did nothing wrong, why should I hate him? If our identities were reversed, I would do the same thing! -  This is not a show of loyalty!"

    Liu Qin glanced at Liu Yan in surprise when he heard this, and said in surprise, "Uncle Huang seems to have realized it a long time ago"

    "Ah, this kind of awareness came about more than ten years ago" As he spoke, Liu Yan seemed to have thought of something. Looking back at Liu Qing, he said, "Although Mr. Xie and His Highness Li Xian may not care, I'm sure other people do too.  Look don't call me your uncle again, His Highness, the Thirteenth Prince of the Southern Tang Dynasty, was your uncle and I gave up on him more than ten years ago!"

    "More than ten years agowere you ever unwilling?"

    "To be honest, there are some, right? Let me figure out who I have resented, my father? The generals of the Southern Tang Dynasty? Or myself? But it doesn't matter now Don't pursue the past that is obviously irreparable.  , Cherish what you have now, didn¡¯t that guy Wu Heng tell you before he died? Be an ordinary woman and live!"

    "Hmph!" Seeing Liu Yan mentioning Wu Heng, Liu Qing's eyes showed a somewhat complicated look, and she sneered and sneered, "I can't compare to Uncle Thirteen, who is so heartless. In my most difficult moment in the Taiping Army  , Uncle Thirteen hung out in various brothels in Guangling, laughing and playing with those mortal women, what a pleasant life he lived!"

    "Uh, this" Liu Yan smiled and saidI feel like my forehead is dripping with cold sweat.  After all, Liu Qing is his niece according to her seniority. Even a man as generous and considerate as Liu Yan may not be able to let go of his niece scolding him for his romantic past.

    Seeing that Liu Yan was embarrassed by what he said, Liu Qing snorted proudly and smiled unconsciously.  However, when she thought about her current situation, the smile on her face gradually disappeared.

    "Be an ordinary woman?" Recalling Wu Heng's words before his death, Liu Qing felt bitter for no reason and murmured, "That guy said it lightly He obviously took me away.  Everything I have nothing left"

    "You still have Uncle Wei!" Liu Yan gently put his hand on Liu Qing's shoulder and said softly, "Although Uncle Wei and your mother only met a few times when they were young, now I can't even remember what that sister looks like.  Get up, but after all, you and I are still relatives with the blood of the Liu family of the Southern Tang Dynasty aren't we?"

    Liu Qing couldn't help but feel a little moved when she heard the words. She was about to speak when she suddenly saw Liu Yan smiling teasingly at him and said with a chuckle, "Besides, doesn't my good niece also have Mr. Xie? As an uncle, I heard that my niece now even enters Mr. Xie's bedroom.  There is no need to report it"

    Hearing this, Liu Qing's face suddenly turned red, she knocked Liu Yan's hand off and said angrily, "Youwhat do you mean by this?"

    "What do you think?" Liu Yan blinked and said with a smile, "Although Qing'er's niece is far smarter than me, don't treat your uncle and others as fools"

    "I don't know what you are talking about!" Liu Qing interrupted angrily, but looking at her expression, she clearly felt guilty.

    "Thank you sir, I care about you very much"

    "YouII'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you here! - Just go and be King Annan and wait until death. Anyway, Li Xian wants to use you to appease Jiangnan, and he will definitely not harm you!"  After giving Liu Yan a fierce look, Liu Qing ran away.

    "This girl" Watching Liu Qing run away as if running away, Liu Yan shook his head in confusion, then raised his head to look at the sky and let out a long sigh.

    [Aren¡¯t you willing to give in?  Of course there is Otherwise, I, Liu Yan, would not have acquiesced in Wu Heng's honorific title of Thirteenth Highness.  Maybe I just said let it go, but in my heart, I still hope that Wu Heng can succeed, right?

    Not for me, Liu Yan, nor for the Liu family of the Southern Tang Dynasty, but I really don¡¯t want the country that gave birth to me and raised me, the great Southern Tang Dynasty that has been passed down for hundreds of years, to become history, right?

    But now, I can really let go

    Because there are no longer loyal ministers like Liang Qiuhao, Yang Yu, and Wu Heng to the Southern Tang Dynasty and the Taiping Army

    ¡°Ah, I, Liu Yan, am just a coward who bets my hope on others

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? are just cowards!  ]

    Taking a deep breath, Liu Yan shook his head and threw away the thoughts that made him feel uncomfortable.

    "Cowards, there are ways to live like a coward! - Well, you still go to Li Xian for a drink It's incredible. He is obviously the eighth prince of Zhou Dynasty, and he has been pampered since he was a child, but his talent is far superior to mine"

    Liu Yan shook his head and walked towards the bedroom of the Eight Sages King Li Xian.

    At the same time, Liu Qing arrived near Xie An's residence in a panic.

    [That damn guy, what are you talking about?  He's obviously an uncle, but he's so arrogant!  How could I possibly be against him towards that guy]

    Liu Qing bit her lip and felt her cheeks feel slightly hot.

    "Liu Junshi? - General Liao Li, has seen Liu Junshi!" At this time, a call came from the distance.

    Liu Qing raised her head, and then she discovered that Zhou Jun general Liao Li was kowtowing to her in salute.

    "General Liao is exempt from courtesy" Liu Qing raised her hand and said, asking Liao to stand up.

    When speaking, Liu Qing was secretly surprised.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT???  This authority means that Liao Li can disregard the general orders from the main force and can change his strategies and tactics at any time according to the current battle situation.  Among the entire Jizhou Army's 100,000 soldiers, only Fei Guo, Ma Dan, and Liao Li had this authority.

    But having said that, even though he has been promoted to the head coach of the partial division, Liao Li still has not given up his other responsibility, which is to concurrently serve as the commander of Xie An's escort army.  This made Liu Qing instinctively panic when she saw Liao Li. After all, since Liao Li was here, it meant that the room opposite was of course Xie An's bedroom.

    [Damn it!  Even those who walk blindly will reach there.Come to the man's bedroom?  Is it a coincidence?  Or¡­¡­]

    With a shiver all over her body, Liu Qing quickly shook her head, throwing away the terrible thought in her mind.

    And Liao Li originally valued Liu Qing very much because of Qi Zhi's incident. Now seeing her like this, he couldn't help but feel anxious and asked doubtfully, "I heard that Military Master Liu was unwell yesterday, why didn't he rest in the house?"

    "Ah? I" Liu Qing was at a loss for words. Could it be that she came to Xie An's bedroom just for a casual stroll?  Although this is a fact, if such words are said, not to mention that others will not believe it, even she, Liu Qing, may not believe it.

    "Huh? Military Master Liu?" Seeing that Liu Qing's expression was wrong, Liao Li took a step forward and asked, "What's wrong with Military Master Liu? Is there something wrong?"

    "Ah? No, I just took a walk. Well, I stayed in the house for a long time and wanted to take a walk" Looking at Liao Li's worried eyes, Liu Qing subconsciously told a little lie.

    "Oh." Liao Li suddenly realized after hearing this, and said with a smile, "In this case, I don't know where Military Master Liu wants to go to relax, and I am willing to guard him! After all, there are still gangs of Guangling assassins lurking in the city. It's not very serious.  Safety."

    "Huh? - Isn't General Liao that guy Well, isn't he Mr. Xie's bodyguard?"

    Liao Li heard the words and said with a smile, "Of course it is, but besides me, Sir, there are also Dongling guards, so there will definitely be no difference. In fact, the general is just here to show his name, and today is nothing more than a name."  The war has come to an end and I'm not used to staying in the military camp, so I'm here. As for your guard, Military Master Liu, let's take a look there" As he spoke, Liao Li raised his finger and pointed at a big tree not far away in the courtyard.  , said with a smile, "With this person here, I can be considerate!"

    Looking in the direction pointed by Liao Li, Liu Qing noticed that on the trunk of the tree, the killer ghost Sickle Mofei of the Dongling people was sitting on the branch and taking a nap against the trunk.  Although he was dozing off, when Liao Li raised his finger to him, he opened his eyes and took a look, then nodded slightly towards Liu Qing, which was regarded as a salute.

    [Mo Fei?  ]

    Liu Qing nodded with understanding. After all, she had not stayed in Zhou Jun for so long in vain. How could she not know Mo Fei's strength?  You know, although Mo Fei cannot deserve the title of one man forming an army, he does possess the terrifying strength of one man conquering a city.  Even Liang Qiuhao did not dare to underestimate his assassination skills.

    "Master Liu, you don't know where you want to go to relax?" Liao Li asked enthusiastically. After all, when he was about to commit suicide because of Qi Zhi's incident, Liu Qing stopped him and gave him some praise and encouragement.  Liao Li got out of the psychological shadow of indirectly killing Army General Liao Li, and his own strength also improved to a higher level.  Therefore, Liao Li was very respectful to Liu Qing. Liu Qing's status in his heart was only lower than that of the family leader Xie An.

    "It's a pity that Liao Li's kind-hearted enthusiasm made Liu Qing into trouble, and she was speechless.

    Seeing Liu Qing¡¯s expression, Liao Li was stunned for a moment.  Immediately, as if he realized something, he turned his head and glanced at the room behind him, and then, a smile similar to Liu Yan's appeared on his face.

    "Noit's not like that" Seeing the smile on Liao Li's face that was very similar to that of his uncle Liu Yan, Liu Qing suddenly became anxious, her pretty face turned red from suppressing it, and she defended herself repeatedly, "I really  I just want to walk around casually, just walk around and come here"

    "Yes, yes, yes" Liao Li nodded with a smile, saying yes repeatedly, but if you were to ask Liu Qing how much he believed it, I'm afraid he didn't believe it at all.

    ????????????????????????????????????????

    "Support what are you talking about! What are you supporting me for?" Liu Qing, who was blushing, felt her cheeks were burning, and hurriedly changed the subject, "Where is that guy?" The guy in her mouth obviously meant Xie An.  undoubtedly.

    If someone else had called Xie An that guy, Liao Li would probably be furious, but Liu Qing's current address made Liao Li smile even more. He whispered, "If I'm not wrong, sir.  He should be drafting a good news report!"

    "Huh?" Liu Qing was stunned when he heard this, and asked curiously, "Didn't you ask Qin Ke'er to draft it for you this time? - You can also ask Li Xian to write it for you."

    "That's it," shook his head and Liao Li explained softly, "Xie Qin went to search for the Guangling Assassin this morning, accompanied by Ding Qiu and Gougong According to Xie Qin, the Guangling Assassin  Half of them are weak and helpless women. Not all the assassins in the hotel are gangsters. The culprit is Wan Li, the leader of the Guangling assassins! So I asked the two adults, Gou Gong and Ding Qiu, to accompany the Xie Qin family.  To win over the Guangling assassin, after all??Du Guangling Assassins are good at collecting intelligence, and their intelligence network all over the country is something that neither the Dongling people nor the Jinling people have!

    As for Prince Xian, His Highness Li Xian has not stepped out of the house since yesterday after having a private discussion with Liu Yanthat is, Military Master Liu's uncle. It is said that he is drafting a document on lenient treatment for peace in the house with Master Ji Hongji, the Minister of Personnel.  army and the strategy to appease Jiangnan"

    "Be lenient to the Taiping Army?" Liu Qing's heart skipped a beat.  Maybe for her, the Taiping Army is something she can't completely let go of in her life.

    "Yes! - Neither your lord nor the wise prince want to pursue the matter too deeply. Enough people have died in this battle. Now that the battle situation has been decided, killing again is against the laws of nature and human ethics. Therefore, as long as the Taiping Army is willing to surrender,  Soldiers will be exempted from the death penalty, but they will have to serve in the army for ten years. As for those who are stubborn and still want to resist, then" Liao Li did not continue, but Liu Qing had obviously understood.

    [Is it?  Have you pardoned the death penalty of the Taiping soldiers?  ]

    Liu Qing breathed a sigh of relief. After the battle in Guangling, about 30,000 Taiping soldiers became prisoners. Although Liu Qing no longer had the slightest relationship with the Taiping Army, she was probably still concerned about those Taiping soldiers.  Holding some complicated feelings.

    As Xie An said, perhaps the hatred in her heart was only directed at Wu Heng. But as Wu Heng committed suicide by taking poison, her hatred had long since disappeared.

    Maybe this is the real reason why she feels unwell right now.  After all, in the beginning, Liu Qing joined the Zhou army in order to use Xie An's power to avenge Wu Heng. But now that Wu Heng is dead, what reason does she have to continue to stay in the Zhou army?  But if she leaves Zhou Jun, the world is so vast, where can she, Liu Qing, stay?

    Therefore, Liu Qing felt at a loss, because she didn't know what she could do, or what else she could do. Could it be that she was really like what Wu Heng said before she died, to be an ordinary woman?

    "It's ridiculous. She is the daughter of the Princess of the Southern Tang Dynasty. The blood of the Liu family of the Southern Tang Dynasty flows in her body. How can she be an ordinary woman?  The best outcome would probably be like that of her imperial uncle Liu Yan, who was forced to live in Ji Jing, the capital of the Zhou Dynasty, and became like a golden bird in a cage, never having any freedom at all.

    With all these thoughts in mind, Liu Qing stepped into Xie An's bedroom with some fear and confusion.

    After all, in her opinion, her value to Xie An is only to deal with the Taiping Army. Now that the Taiping Army has been pacified, will Xie An still need her?

    Liu Qing felt panicked when she thought of this.

    However, when she saw Xie An, who was supposed to be busy drafting a successful report in the house, lying leisurely on a lazy chair, the anger in her heart suddenly came up, and she forgot about her panic just now, and angrily  scolded, "Hey, aren't you drafting a victory report?"

    "What's the hurry" Old God Xie An, who was lying on the lazy chair, said quietly. After saying that, he felt something was wrong. He opened his eyes and glanced at Liu Qing, and then said even more lazily, "What, it's  Girl Qing"

    That nonchalant tone made Liu Qing even more angry. Without saying a word, she stepped forward and pulled out Xie An's sleeve. While pulling it, she scolded, "Are you still considered a minister of Zhou Dynasty? Li Xian is  You've been busy all night trying to appease Jiang Nan, so it's better for you to draft a good news and be lazy here"

    "Don't be excited, don't be excited" Seeing Liu Qing acting uncharacteristically, Xie An was very surprised. He looked her up and down, making Liu Qing feel uncomfortable all over.

    "Youwhat are you looking at?" Liu Qing asked with some guilt.

    "Ha!" Xie An smiled slightly and joked, "Normally, you don't seem to be so concerned about whether I am diligent in my official duties, right? What's wrong? Did you take the wrong medicine?"

    "You just took the wrong medicine!" After saying something angrily, Liu Qing said angrily, "I just want to know how you plan to deal with the Taiping Army!"

    "Oh? Didn't Liao Li and the others tell you?" Xie An glanced at Liu Qing in surprise and said, "Liao Li and Cheng Yang are loyal to you now. I'm afraid it's not an exaggeration to say that they didn't tell you."  you?"

    "I" Liu Qing looked away guiltily, after all, Liao Lifang had just told her the whole thing.

    To put it bluntly, caring about the Taiping Army was just an excuse that Liu Qing came up with at the moment.

    While Liu Qing was thinking hard about how to deceive Xie An, suddenly a person hurriedly walked in outside the house, knocked on the ground and announced, "Sir, a letter from Jijing has arrived!"

    Xie An took a closer look and saw the general Su Xin, and asked, "Ji Jing? Is this a letter from home?"

    "No, sir, it's a letter of credence! - A letter of credence issued by the Imperial Study Room! It also has His Majesty's jade seal on it!" Su Xin replied in a deep voice.

    ?"What?" Xie An's expression changed slightly, he stood up suddenly, stepped forward and took the letter from Su Xin's hand, and then his expression became more solemn.

    You must know that the credential is not issued casually. It carries more weight than the imperial edict. Generally, only when major events occur, the imperial court will issue the credential to inform the world.

    For example, when Emperor Li Ji died before the Great Zhou Dynasty, the imperial court issued a letter of credence announcing the death of the old emperor Li Ji and the succession of the new emperor Li Shou to the world.  It is no exaggeration to say that in recent decades during the Zhou Dynasty, the imperial court only issued three letters of credence.

    [Could it be that]

    Faintly, Xie An had a bad feeling, and he opened the letter hurriedly.

    "What's wrong? What's wrong? - What happened?" Liu Qing put her head over curiously. After all, she also knew the weight of credentials.

    I saw Xie An carefully scanning the words written on the certificate of credence, his eyes narrowed subconsciously, and there was a hint of unbelievable shock in his eyes.

    "With the fall of Jizhou, the troops from northern Xinjiang were closing in on the capital, and the imperial court was forced to move the capital to Chaoge. In addition His Majesty is in charge of the capital army personally, and he personally marches to defend the country!" (To be continued.
