One Thousand Two Hundred and Nine: Zhao Shao's Death (7)
With a gloomy expression, Han Yu briefly explained the current situation.
"My lord, he..."
Xie Ze's eyes were red, water vapor appeared in his eyes, and he was so choked up that he couldn't speak a complete sentence.
If he hadn't been tied up with bandages and had no strength in his body, he might have jumped up and cried a lot.
"Time, luck, and fate." Han Yu smiled wryly, "We can only do our best and obey the fate—"
Xie Ze is worthy of being Li Yun's cousin, both of them have the temperament of little angels.
He was concerned about Han Yu's situation immediately.
"Sir, this is now..."
Han Yu can freely enter and leave the camp, and his master is already on a dog leash, so Han Yu's current position is very obvious.
"Yu has accepted the solicitation of Lord Lanting and volunteered to serve under his tent as a minister."
Han Yu told the truth without hesitation.
If it was Cheng Xun who heard this, he would probably be so angry that he would draw his sword and stab him, even if he didn't have the strength to stab him, he would yell at him.
Xie Ze's reaction was different, his brows were filled with regret, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief for Han Yu.
If Han Yu surrendered Jiang Pengji, then the enemy would definitely not make things difficult for him, and Han Yu's life would not have to be worried.
"The winner is the king, and the loser is the bandit. The battle between military strategists has been cruel since ancient times. It is understandable for Mr. to choose this way—" Xie Ze thought of Xu Pei's family, with a warm smile on his lips, "My lord is gone, his The family members, wives and daughters are no longer protected. Now that the husband has taken refuge in Lord Lanting, it must be difficult for Lord Lanting to criticize the Lord’s relatives. Not only can’t be harsh, but she has to take good care of her... The children under the lord’s knees are young, so they should not hinder her. In the future, Mr. Spend some thought, so as to teach them... When they grow up in the future, they will be able to support the door and shine the lintel again. If so, the Lord Jiuquanxia will be very pleased when he sees it..."
Xie Ze is not a moral kidnapping, but for Han Yu's good. Han Yu is Xu Pei's former minister, and this label will stick with him for the rest of his life. Returning to Jiang Pengji, no matter whether he is willing or not, he must take care of Xu Pei's family, so as not to provoke criticism from others and frame him as heartless and ungrateful.
Of course, Xie Ze's worries were superfluous, after all, Han Yu had already agreed to Xu Pei.
Even so, Xie Ze's kindness still touched Han Yu's heart.
"Yu knows—" Han Yu changed the subject, and asked Xie Ze directly, "Xie Xie is so considerate of Yu, have you ever thought about yourself?"
Xie Ze was seriously injured and captured, and he was still mummified and unable to move.
He came back from the gate of hell, wouldn't he still want to crawl back?
Xie Ze should also consider for himself.
Han Yu's question stunned Xie Zewen. He stared blankly at the top of the tent and remained silent for a while.
"Sir, did you come to persuade the late general to surrender?"
Han Yu nodded in agreement.
Xie is a straightforward person, if Han Yu tries to trick him, he will feel bad about it.
"Mr. Lanting is a woman with a broad personality and a broad mind."
Xie was not overly emotional, but had a wry smile on his face.
During the attack that day and night, Xie Ze wanted to kill Jiang Pengji, but Li Yun accidentally called out her identity, Xie Ze bet everything to intercept and kill her. In such a situation, not only did this person not take his life or humiliate him to vent his anger, but he signaled Han Yu to recruit——
Xie Ze said, "Sir, do you also think that the last general should surrender?"
"Yu can't make the decision for you. Whether you want to submit or not depends entirely on Captain Xie's decision." Han Yu added, "It is said that Captain Xie is the cousin of Li Yun, a soldier under Lord Lanting. Shi. Even if you don't want to surrender, she won't make things difficult for you."
Little did they know, Han Yu's words were like a landmine that knocked Xie Ze into a daze.
He opened his round eyes with clear black and white, and his eyes were full of shock.
"What cousin?"
Xie was so frightened that he almost hurt his wound, don't scare him.
Seeing Xie Ze's reaction, Han Yu was sure that he really didn't know, but it was impossible for Jiang Pengji to lie.
So--
Han Yu said calmly, "Mr. Lanting just said that Li Yun's father is the direct descendant of Xie's previous generation, and you are cousins.
"
Xie opened his eyes wide in fright, he looked like a mummy at first, but now he was more stiff.
"How, how is it possible—"
Xie Ze murmured, with a terrified expression.
Han Yu asked, "What's impossible?"
Xie Ze took a long time to come back to his senses, and said with a wry smile, "Sir, you must have heard about it too, right? Because of an incident more than 20 years ago, the Xie clan has become more and more low-key, rarely participating in government affairs, and most of the children who are officials in the court are idlers -"
Han Yu nodded, "Have heard it faintly."
Although he was not from a rich family, he also had connections in the family. Before Dongqing was destroyed, the Han family had an in-law relationship with the Zhenbeihou Mansion, which was in charge of Dongqing's military power. Of course, he has heard the gossip about Huan Ning Xie, but he doesn't know the reason for Xie's sudden retirement.
Could it be that the hidden secret has something to do with Li Yun's father?
Xie Ze said, "It's inconvenient to say the specific inside story, but that matter is related to Xie Qian, the eldest son of the previous generation in the clan—"
Xie Qian?
Although he was a famous figure of the previous generation, Xie Qian had countless fans when he was young, and Han Yu's mother was one of them.
Naturally, he had also heard of Xie Qian, so he made a special trip to check his life.
"It is said that Xie Qian died in his prime, and was later expelled from the Xie clan for unknown reasons—"
Xie Ze said, "It was said that he died in his prime of life, but grandpa and father didn't believe that uncle died like this. If you live, you want to see people, but if you die, you want to see the corpse. Grandpa and the others sent people to search the bottom of the cliff where uncle jumped off the cliff several times. Don't say that uncle The remains, even a single human bone, have never been found."
This secret has never been made public, but Grandpa Xie Ze still believes that the eldest son Xie Qian is still alive.
Han Yu suddenly understood, and asked, "Xie Xiaowei suspects that Li Yun's father is not someone else, but Xie Qian who has been missing for many years?"
Xie blinked hard.
He couldn't move now, so he blinked instead of nodding.
"Yes, this possibility is very high." Xie said here, all kinds of clues connected into a thread in his mind, he became more and more sure, "The martial arts used by Li Yun are clearly inherited from Xie's family, even if they are talented, If you want to practice to such a level of exquisiteness, ingenuity, and ease of sending and receiving, you can't do it even if you practice hard for more than ten years. In addition—when the uncle Xie Qian disappeared, his infant son also disappeared. Counting the years Li Yun is also suitable. His appearance is somewhat similar to the portrait of my uncle when he was young—"
Han Yu smiled wryly, "This fate is really wonderful."
Xie Ze and Li Yun fought fiercely in front of the battle. If one of the two sides misses, it may be killed by the other side.
Looking at Jiang Pengji's previous attitude, it can be seen that Li Yun knew about his relationship with Xie Ze early on.
Xie pleaded with Han Yu, "Sir, can I meet Li Yun privately at the end? There are some things that should be verified with him."
Han Yu said, "You can give it a try."
"Thank you."
Han Yu didn't ask whether Xie Hui would surrender, no matter whether he surrendered or not, at least his life was saved.
