I Became the Heroine of Abusive Novel and Her Elder Brother

    Qinmen Pass is very close to Chang'an, only two or three hundred miles away.

    In the early years of Taizu's founding of the dynasty, the Huns in the north frequently violated the border. At that time, the foundation of Dayong was unstable, and many times, the Turks broke through the border gates and approached Chang'an.

    The Qinmen Pass at that time was the last barrier of Chang'an.

      It was at that time that the Turks attacked aggressively, all the way to the outside of Qinmen Pass.

    It was at that time that Xu Zonglun saved the life of Emperor Qingping.

    As people get older, they tend to be nostalgic.

    At that time, he finally defeated a few of his brothers, and just ascended the throne, Beifang came to a rush, saying that the Qin gate was in danger.

    He was young and vigorous at the time, and he was impatient to face the forces left behind by the various princes of the Manchu Dynasty.

    It was the first time he faced a **** battlefield, and the first time he saw corpses and smoke everywhere.

    At that time, he led the troops to chase the evacuated Turks, and was surrounded by the Turks who were ambushed halfway, and almost died under the arrows.

    It was Xu Zonglun who led his troops to rescue him from the siege. In order to block the arrow for him, Xu Zonglun was shot in the right chest by the stray arrow and nearly died.

    Emperor Qing Ping always remembers the kindness of Xu Zonglun who sacrificed his life to save him.

    Therefore, even if the Xu family did not stand on his side, he did not do much to them. Since then, he has been short of people in the court, and he has often handed over power and fat to the Xu family without hesitation.

    After arriving, the Xu family gradually became more powerful and began to be defiant and make trouble, and he managed to suppress the arrogance of the Xu family. Even so, he only used checks and balances and never really punished them.

    With him, the Xu family has received too much favor.

    However, today's ordering of troops, the main general is not Xu Zonglun. According to his original arrangement, he handed over all the soldiers under Xu Zonglun to a general who was transferred back to the capital from the border.

    After all, Emperor Qing Ping also knew that when the army went south and crossed the south of the Yangtze River, the power after that would be handed over to Xue Yan. In this case, it is unnecessary to carefully select a high-ranking general, and there will be more incidents.

    What he arranged for this general to do was to take over the power from Xu Zonglun and properly deliver it to Xue Yan.

    Therefore, Emperor Qing Ping's gaze did not stay on the main general for too long, and only turned a little, and then fell on Xu Zonglun, who was on standby on the left side of the team.

    "How long has it been since I saw Zong Lun?" Emperor Qingping paused and asked lightly.

    Lingfu next to him paused for a while, and quickly replied, "It's been four years since I returned to Your Majesty."

    Ling Fu was speechless.

    He received a secret letter from Xu Xiang yesterday and a tightly packed powder.

    Only then did he know what the Xu family wanted to do, and what they wanted him to do.

      .

    But now, it is difficult to recover.

    I didn't expect the Xu family's courage and appetite to be so great.

    Now, Xu Zonglun's army has arrived at Chang'an City, whether he agrees to Xu family or not, Qingping Emperor is difficult to protect. If he did not agree and let the Xu family mutiny, he would not be able to survive when the army entered the imperial city.

    And if he confesses to Emperor Qingping, even if he can save Emperor Qingping, with his understanding of Emperor Qingping, he will not be able to live.

    How suspicious the emperor is, he knows best.

    He will never leave a servant like himself who betrayed him to serve by his side.

    Now, only by obeying the Xu family and prescribing medicine to Emperor Qing Ping can he save his life.

    After weighing the two factors, Lingfu made a choice.

    The Emperor Qing Ping laughed a few times.

    The Qing Ping Emperor naturally would not dislike listening to such boasting. He smiled and said, "After all, Zong Lun saved my life."

    Ling Fu sees his expression, and he has a bottom in his heart.

    "Then... General Xu is going to leave tomorrow, does His Majesty need a servant to arrange something for His Majesty...?" he asked.

    On weekdays, as a slave, he arranged such a thing for his master, which was naturally overstepped. But at this time, there were 100,000 heroic divisions standing under the tower, the drums were shaking, and the atmosphere was warm. Emperor Qingping recalled the past, and his emotions followed.

    Lingfu is the most observant and knows when to speak to her master.

    Sure enough, Emperor Qing Ping didn't think much about it, and said: "It's time to give the master a farewell."

    What he wants to see now is only Xu Zonglun, but Xu Zonglun has been demoted by him as his deputy, not a general. Therefore, Emperor Qingping thought for a while, and then ordered: "You go and arrange, just say that I will give the main general a farewell. I even bring a few main generals in the army, and accompany them together."

    Ling Fu hurriedly agreed.

    —

    Night fell.

    Lights were lit everywhere in the palace, and the lights were bright, reflecting the stars and rivers in the sky.

    The venue for the banquet is still Yongle Hall.

    The Qing Ping Emperor has not arrived yet, and the generals who are about to go south have already taken their seats in the hall. The generals gathered together and it was always lively. A group of people sat here talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was good.

    Looking around, the generals around are all old troops that Xu Zonglun brought back from Qinmen Pass, and all of them have followed him for decades.

    However, Xu Zonglun, who was supposed to be sitting at the top, sat next to the commander's left.

    The main general's surname is Hu, originally a general of Yumen Pass. Yumenguan has always been peaceful, and the guard is Jun Huailang's uncle. This general was of mediocre aptitude. Under Uncle Jun Huailang, he managed to get a third-rank qualification based on his age. He was in his forties and was transferred back to the capital.

    As a military general, he originally returned to Beijing to spend his retirement. Even this General Hu himself didn't dare to think that he didn't make any career at Yumen Pass, and when he returned to Chang'an, he had such a big piece of pie and hit him on the head.

    Even if you go to the south, everything must be guided by His Royal Highness King Guangling, but the name of the main general is still on him.

    The gatekeeper of Yumen has a clear and bright atmosphere. After decades, he has cultivated a naive temperament, and he can't understand the twists and turns of officials in Beijing.

    The saint appointed him, and he felt that he was highly regarded, and now it was finally his late bloomer.

    General Xu, who originally guarded the Qin Gate Pass, was very kind.

    This time the main general should be General Xu, but it fell on his head. He was a little worried at first, but General Xu found him immediately and had a drink with him.

    General Xu said that something happened in his family, and now he cannot be trusted by the saints. He has soldiers in his hands, which is also a burden. But fortunately, with him, he took over the military power in his hands, and also saved himself from the risk of being jealous of the emperor, so I should thank him.

    General Hu was naturally flattered.

    General Xu also said that in the future, as his deputy, he will definitely help him, so that he does not have to worry.

    When General Hu heard this, he was naturally indescribably grateful. He immediately introduced Xu Zonglun as a confidant and drank with him until late at night, talking about everything.

    He only thought that General Xu was a good man with an open mind and a reasonable mind.

    And two days ago, General Xu found him again.

    "I've thought about it, it's better to tell you." Xu Zonglun said. "As you know, His Majesty appointed you as the main general because of his trust in you. I also had some personal friendships with His Majesty back then, and I still know him well. After thinking about it, I still think that you should give His Majesty something to express your feelings. ."

    "Send something?" General Hu was puzzled. "This, Your Majesty is rich in the world, what else can you lack?"

    Xu Zonglun laughed.

    "Naturally, you are lacking sincerity as a minister." He said. "It doesn't have to be expensive. Didn't you just come back from Yumenguan? There are some good wines or specialties that are rarely seen in Beijing. Did you bring them back?"

    General Hu pondered: "I brought a few jars of good wine. But the wine we drink at the border is very rough, how can it compare to the good wine in Chang'an?"

    Xu Zonglun shook his head.

    "Good wine in Beijing, what has your Majesty not drunk? But he has never tasted the spirits at the border." He said. "It just so happens that the banquet is going to be drinking. At that time, you will pour it to Your Majesty yourself. You should drink it all for fun. Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

    When General Hu heard this, he thought it was the truth.

    He nodded.

    "I'm a rude man, I never thought about it so much, I would like to thank General Xu for his suggestion." He said.

    Xu Zonglun laughed: "The general does not need to be polite to me. Now I am the general's vassal, and the general can call me a word."

    General Hu only felt that the relationship between the two was a little closer.

    Until today's banquet.

    The emperor did not come, but the generals of Qinmenguan were very enthusiastic and gossip with him one after another. General Hu replied with a smile, feeling only complacent.

    The sage trusts, and the subordinates are appropriate. As a general, what more can he ask for?

    Only do what the sage ordered, guard the Dayong River and Mountain, and lead this group of brothers to join the ranks.

    General Hu only felt that the future was bright.

    At this moment, a **** came to report, saying that the emperor was coming soon.

    Everyone immediately sat upright.

    Xu Zonglun next to him gently touched him.

    "Did you bring it?" Xu Zonglun asked in a low voice.

    He meant something and asked about the jar of wine he asked General Hu to bring.

    General Hu only regarded Xu Zonglun as caring about him, nodded again and again, and turned sideways to show Xu Zonglun the wine jar at his feet.

    "I brought it, I brought a whole jar!"

    Xu Zonglun smiled lightly and nodded meaningfully.

    “Just bring it,” he said.
