"That's right!" Ruan Xingzhu, who was standing next to Jia Shidao, was also stirred up. She wanted to kill Jia Shidao especially when she thought of what happened to Han Xingzhou.
The more they talked, the angrier they became. They almost cursed Jia Shidao's ancestors.
After a long time, Shen Xiaolong calmed down and realized he had lost his composure. He said awkwardly, "Where is my sister now?"
Seeing his hopeful gaze, Song QingShu replied, "Young Lady Shen is currently very safe. As for where she is now, it involves the safety of a series of people. Forgive me for not being able to tell General Shen for the time being, but I will definitely arrange for you to meet as soon as possible."
Hearing his answer, Shen Xiaolong was a little disappointed, but he understood. He said, "Since Lord Shen said so, you must have your reasons. With Lord Shen's care, my sister will be safe. Then I can go to Lin 'an without worry."
Song Qingshu frowned and asked, "What are you going to Lin 'an for, General Shen?"
Shen Xiaolong replied, "The Shen family's blood feud must be avenged. I couldn't leave before, but now that I know King Yi and Jia Shidao are behind all this, I have to seek justice."
Ruan Xingzhu hurried to dissuade him. "Now that Jia Shidao has killed Minister Han, he has power in the court. He has many masters under his command. Let alone the unpredictable Shi Potian, General Shen, you can't even defeat Zuo Lenchan."
Shen Xiaolong opened his mouth and finally said, "Sometimes, even if you know it's impossible, you have to do it!" Although he was proud of his martial arts, he had seen Zuo Lenchan fight in the battle of the King of Shu's Mansion. Zuo Lenchan was a master of both fists and swords. He wasn't sure he could defeat him, especially that weird Icy Genuine Qi.
Ruan Xingzhu said coldly, "Now that the Shen family has been destroyed, you and your sister are the only ones left in the world. Miss Shen is destined to get married, so only you can continue the Shen family. If you die, won't the Shen family have no descendants?"
"This …" Shen Xiaolong was so shocked that he broke out in a cold sweat. He was hurt by love in his early years and had never considered starting a family. Initially, he wanted to spend the rest of his life alone, but with the other party's reminder, he realized that the Shen family's lineage was about to end!
Nguyen Xingzhu continued, "You know that you are courting death, but you still want to go. It is unfilial to end the Shen family's lineage. As the leader of Sichuan's military, it is unwise to give way to one person while holding the military power. Does General Shen want to do such an unfilial and unwise thing?"
Shen Xiaolong furrowed his brows. "But now that things have come to this, what else can I do? Don't tell me you want me to mobilize my troops to the south and purge the Emperor's side? Let's not talk about whether or not I can fight my way to Jiangnan. Even if I really do attack, how many soldiers in Sichuan will listen to my command is also a problem. "
"Besides, King Yi sent people to kill Bijun, and the emperor allowed Xue Yi to kill him. I really don't want to serve the Zhao family anymore." Thinking of the royal family's attitude, Shen Xiaolong hated Jia Shidao even more. He was not a loyal official of the orthodox Confucian school, otherwise he would not have rebelled and left the Shen family.
Nguyen Xingzhu rolled her beautiful eyes and said with a smile, "Actually, there is a clear path."
Seeing that she was hinting at Song Qingshu while she was talking, Shen Xiaolong was shocked, "Has Madam already …"
"Yes," Nguyen Xingzhu replied. "After knowing that Minister Han was killed, I completely surrendered to Prince Song. The royal family of the Southern Song Dynasty is weak. First, they were humiliated by Jingkang, then they killed Yue Fei to make peace, and now they killed Minister Han. Although I am a woman, I still despise such a royal family and court. However, in today's world, the Mongols, the Qing Dynasty, and the Jin Dynasty are all foreign countries, so it is impossible to surrender to them. The Ming Dynasty died early. Fortunately, Prince Song came out of nowhere and built a huge territory from scratch in just two or three years. He defeated the Qing Dynasty and the Jin Dynasty several times.
Being flattered like this, Song Qingshu was a little embarrassed, but he secretly praised her. He knew that some things were not suitable for him to say directly, but it was much more useful to hear it from her.
However, with her foreshadowing, Song QingShu was able to come out and say, "General Shen, I also have irreconcilable conflicts with Jia Shidao. If you don't mind, we can work together to fight against him, who has all the power in the government."
Shen Xiaolong hesitated and said, "But I heard that you are engaged to the two princesses …"
Song Qingshu replied calmly, "In order to unify the world, I have engaged to many women, not to mention that the two princesses are the daughters of the former emperor. They have always been unhappy that the emperor did not save their father and brother." He understood what Nguyen Xingzhu meant. Other than Jia Shidao, some of Shen Xiaolong's enemies were also the royal family, such as King Yi. They were worried that he would not let them take revenge because of the princesses.
Hearing this, Shen Xiaolong no longer had any doubts. He directly bowed and said, "Greetings, my lord!"
Song Qingshu hurried to help him up and said, "General Shen, please get up!" He couldn't help but be overjoyed. He came to Sichuan this time to untie the knot in Yingying's heart, and to prevent Sichuan from becoming a threat to the flank of the Jin Kingdom. He didn't expect that after a series of events, Sichuan would be in his pocket. How could he not be overjoyed?
Of course, he was sober enough to know that this kind of control was still very fragile. At present, he could only indirectly control Sichuan through Shen Xiaolong and Ruan Xingzhu. Moreover, the people and civilians of Sichuan were loyal to the imperial court of Lin 'an. Once there was a sign of independence, this kind of control would be gone.
He could only slowly influence them and spend a few years to slowly penetrate into every area of Sichuan. In this way, he could completely subdue Sichuan in the future when he raised his arm.
After that, they often met to discuss some details of controlling Sichuan. Of course, everyone agreed that the relationship between the two sides should not be announced for the time being, so as not to cause a thunderous reaction from Lin 'an. It should be known that since the establishment of the Song Dynasty, they had followed the policy of guarding the inside while ignoring the outside. They tried to compromise with the external enemies as much as possible, and used the most bloody suppression methods to threaten the rule of the imperial power such as peasant uprisings and official rebellions. Now the time was not right, they could not shed all pretense of cordiality with Lin' an.
To Song Qingshu's surprise, these days they actually found Lin Pingzhi, who had been missing for a long time. After some questioning, he learned that after Wu Xi betrayed him, he jumped out of the chaos and went to Mount Qingcheng to seek revenge on Yu Canghai. However, although his martial arts had greatly improved, the Qingcheng Faction had too many people. Although he had seriously injured Yu Canghai, he was not able to take his life. Instead, he was seriously injured.
Fortunately, the martial arts taught to him by Song QingShu allowed him to escape. After that, he hid in the wilderness for more than a month to recuperate from his injuries. When he heard that so many things had happened in Chengdu, he entered the city to investigate. However, he was discovered by Ruan Xingzhu's spies and brought to Song QingShu.
It just so happened that Song Qingshu was short of manpower here, so he arranged for Lin Pingzhi to assist Shen Xiaolong and Ruan Xingzhu here. Lin Pingzhi did not disappoint and managed things well.
"Are you really going to leave Miss Yue alone?" Song Qingshu couldn't help but ask one day.
Lin Pingzhi's eyes moved, but he finally said lightly, "Linghu Chong has gone to rescue her. It's okay."
Song Qingshu knew that Lin Pingzhi's priority right now was revenge. Everything else could be put aside. The reason why he was doing his best to complete the task assigned to him was mostly because he had killed his way to Mount Qingcheng alone. He had seen the benefits of numbers and decided to make a name for himself in the officialdom here and use the power of the officialdom to eliminate Yu Canghai's minions.
After hesitating again and again, Song Qingshu finally made up his mind. Originally, he didn't want to get involved in the enmity between Lin Pingzhi and Yu Canghai. He only wanted to provide some necessary help. But now, this hatred had turned Lin Pingzhi's heart into a demon. Worried that Lin Pingzhi would ruin the overall situation in Sichuan after he left, he brought Lin Pingzhi all the way to Mount Qingcheng one night and captured Yu Canghai, as well as the few disciples of Fu Wei Escort Agency who committed the crime, allowing Lin Pingzhi to avenge the extermination of Fu Wei Escort Agency.
Although Qingcheng Sect was a major sect in the martial world, it had declined by the time it reached Yu Canghai's lineage. It was far inferior to the equally famous Emei Sect. Coupled with the recent chaos in Sichuan, the matter of Qingcheng Sect could only be considered as a small wave. Moreover, Yu Canghai had always been a shameless person and had no friends in the martial world who would stand up for him. Therefore, this matter was quickly forgotten.
After taking revenge, Lin Pingzhi knelt in front of Song Qingshu with red eyes and kowtowed more than ten times. No one could stop him. Finally, he swore to be loyal to Song Qingshu for the rest of his life in order to repay his kindness.
Seeing that the knot in his heart was finally untied, Song Qingshu was naturally happy. At the same time, he also mentioned that he would find out the whereabouts of Yue Lingshan and help him save her if there was a chance.
As if sensing that Song Qingshu was about to leave, Ruan Xingzhu was busy reorganizing the Yang Clan during the day and arranging people into the Sichuan officialdom. At night, whenever she was free, she would pester Song Qingshu to carry out her big plan.
Song Qingshu naturally enjoyed her gentleness and amorous feelings. He also understood that he had a lot of things to do and couldn't stay here forever. Also, he was worried that Ruan Xingzhu's words to the Yang Clan would be found out to be a lie, so he could only work harder.
Finally, one day, Ruan Xingzhu blushed and told him that she didn't come this month. Song Qingshu wasn't a native of this world who lacked physiological knowledge. He immediately understood what was going on.
"You're really pregnant?" Song Qingshu was a little dazed.
"Yes." Ruan Xingzhu nodded inaudibly. She gently touched her belly and her face was filled with happiness. "I can feel it."
Song Qingshu naturally knew that after pregnancy, it was impossible to feel any changes so quickly. However, a mother's nature had a magical sixth sense that could often sense whether she was pregnant or not.
"I'm going to be a father?" Song Qingshu couldn't come back to his senses for a while. One must know that he had been in this world for so long and had many female confidantes around him. Although it was partly because he had previously refined his energy into Qi, the fact that there wasn't any movement in a woman's belly made him feel a little apprehensive. Could it be because of his transmigration that he had lost his fertility like Senior Xiang Shaolong? Only now did he finally feel relieved.
Then, he smiled bitterly. He had so many wives and confidantes, but he never expected that the first one to get pregnant would be Ruan Xingzhu, who was completely unrelated to him. If Zhiruo and the others knew about this, even if he didn't die, he would at least lose a layer of skin.
"Actually, she might not be the first …" The image of Huang Rong's belly bulging appeared in Song Qingshu's mind. However, when he asked her about it, she denied it.
