Jiang Xingjian looked up in confusion, and Jiang Man said, "Come here."
Jiang Man squinted and looked at Jiang Xingjian for a long time before he slowly said, "Song Lan'an's death was not his fault."
Jiang Xingjian was shocked and looked at Jiang Man in disbelief.
His eyes were full of shock, and he didn't know where to start.
After a long time, he said in a hoarse voice: "Who did it? And when did sister... know about it?"
"It was the work of the Holy One. I knew about it three months after the news of your and your father's death came from the border."
Jiang Man sneered coldly: "This wimp Shen Congyi is not only born with a soft body, but his mind is pitifully narrow and dark."
"He had this idea on the first day I entered the palace."
"The Song family sent their daughter to the palace, Song Yuning gave birth to Qianbai, and the Jiang and Song Dynasties got married. He was afraid."
"He is afraid that the two governments of Jiang and Song Dynasty will join forces to threaten his throne. How can he tolerate the collusion between the civil and military clans of the prince and his mother's family?"
At that time, no heir had been born in the palace for many years. Emperor Wen Hui never thought about the situation in the future, or maybe he thought about it but was still afraid. Therefore, the insidious villain started making arrangements since she entered the palace. Even if she later became pregnant with Qian Shu, he was afraid that Qian Shu would not be born smoothly, so he did something wrong.
She had also been with Emperor Wen Hui for many years before she slowly guessed this matter.
Jiang Man looked at Jiang Xingjian, closed his eyes and said, "It has nothing to do with the Song family. Don't mistake your enemy."
There were still tears on Jiang Xingjian's face, but something seemed to be blocked in his throat, unable to make a single sound.
After a long time, he managed to squeeze out a word why.
"Why tell me?"
If he didn't know, he could comfort himself in his heart that it was their fate that they could not get together with Song. For the sake of his father's hatred, he could put aside the love in his heart and stay with Lin Jiayue wholeheartedly. If he didn't know, he could give up even if he saw Song Wan and the prince getting to know each other.
Why, why did Sister A tell him this?
He would rather not know for the rest of his life.
Now he knows that he will have to bear the regrets for the rest of his life. He gave up the people he loved for the few words of his closest relatives, and his life became a joke.
He would rather not know, he would rather not know for the rest of his life!
Jiang Xingjian stood up suddenly. He wanted to blame Jiang Man. He wanted to say that Jiang Man caused him to miss the love of his life. He wanted to say that Jiang Man caused him to leave the most unbearable impression on the person he loved most.
But he can't.
His sister is dead! At this moment, how could he accuse the man in front of him who had been aloof and proud all his life? Jiang Xingjian burst into tears, and finally knelt on the ground and couldn't raise his head.
What does his life mean?
Listening to Jiang Xingjian's wails, Jiang Manyu clenched her fists tightly. After a long time, she stood up with difficulty and sat up with a deep breath.
Jiang Man looked at the demoralized soldiers outside the tent and slowly walked out barefoot.
Everyone in the army knew her identity, and they couldn't help but keep silent when they saw that her body was covered with brands and scars.
"I am the master of Yanqing Palace and the late fifth prince's biological mother, Jiang Man."
Jiang Man stood in the center of the military camp and spoke in a calm and indifferent tone: "Princess Nanqing was branded with the Dongning War Horse brand on her face by me. The Holy Lord sent me to the enemy camp. Although I hate her, I have no regrets."
"Although I am a woman, I am also Dongning's daughter. My Dongning daughter's character will not be broken even in death."
"The emperor's ignorance is a disaster for all the people. I, the king of Dongning, am useless, but the children of Dongning are all strong and strong."
"Today, I would like to sacrifice Dongning's battle flag with my blood. I only hope that you will come to protect Dongning's peace and guard the country against foreign enemies. I know that my Dongning daughter is unyielding and worthy of the life of Dongning's men."
After saying that, Jiang Man suddenly took out the sword from the waist of the soldier beside him and placed it on his neck.
"Sister, don't..."
Jiang Xingjian chased him out from the camp, only to see Jiang Man slowly falling down with a smile on his face.
She has no way out, she only hopes that she can regain her morale before she dies and find a way out for her brother, the only one she owes so much, so that he can return to Beijing.
He is a father, and she only hopes that he can take care of his children and be healthy.
She also hoped that he would hate her, so that he would not miss her, nor feel guilty about what happened to her, and be possessed by demons.
The red blood mist filled the air before his eyes. Before he died, Jiang Manfang felt that his life was really ridiculous.
She had been seeking power, wealth and honor all her life, but in the end it was all in vain. She hoped that her son would succeed, so she pushed her Shu'er to fight for the chair, but she only ended up pushing Shu'er away with her own hands, causing him to die alone in the pool.
Jiang Man closed her eyes, hoping that if there was an afterlife, she would treat Shu'er well and accompany him to do whatever he likes...
"Sister!"
The bright red blood splattered everywhere, and the Dongning soldiers felt that everything they could see was dazzlingly bright red.
For some unknown reason, someone in the crowd suddenly let out a scream, followed by the sound of Dongning's soldiers unloading their weapons and kneeling down.
There was a movement in Shen Qianyu's throat, and his heart felt desolate.
Most people in the world look down on the daughter of the boudoir, but they never know that there is a hero in the boudoir. Even Jiang Man does not know how much stronger than the monarch of a country.
Jiang Xingjian knelt down and cried bitterly. Overnight, he lost his loved ones and his belief in surviving in the world.
Wan Xiao stood next to Shen Qianyu and said softly: "Your Highness, the private soldiers of Marquis Chengyang..."
Shen Qianyu raised his hand to stop Wan Xiao from speaking.
He did know that after Emperor Wen Hui transferred the people from Suhe Dusi, everything he said and did was to plot the private soldiers in Jiang Xingjian's hands, but now he could only resign himself to his fate.
If Jiang Xingjian hated the royal family because of this or was so depressed that he was determined to die, there was nothing he could do.
The two of them stood in front of the tent, quietly listening to the cry of a man coming from the camp, with complicated thoughts.
The generals silently stepped forward to help Jiang Xingjian dispose of Jiang Man's body. Although no one opened their mouth during this period, everyone knew that Jiang Man's death was like a heavy hammer hitting their hearts.
Knock away yesterday's downturn.
Jiang Man was right, they were not here for the Nine-Five-Year-Old Lord who was struggling to survive in the Jinluan Palace, they were for the people of Dongning, the female family members of the family who were waiting for their return in the capital.
The Su River is unbreakable. Even if they die, they will block every road from Nanqing to attack Shangjing. Even if they are dragged to pieces, they will drag them to the court for support.
Emperor Wen Hui was a coward, but they believed that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty in Dongning were not all cowards like Emperor Wen Hui!
Another solitary grave was added to the wasteland beside the camp. The dusty and simple earthen bags made it difficult for anyone to imagine that buried under the loess was once a noble and honorable imperial concubine of a country who was more than ten thousand people.
Maybe someone felt a little pity and found a palm-square piece of burlap cloth from somewhere and placed stones on the grave as a sacrifice.
There was nothing else, not even a stick of incense or a few pieces of yellow paper.
Jiang Xingjian stood in front of the grave for a long time, with a trance in his eyes. When Shen Qianyu stood behind him, Jiang Xingjian said in a low voice: "I know what your highness is waiting for."
He turned around and said word by word: "My father died at the border back then. I did not return to the border for six years because I was training private soldiers in the camp."
"If Your Highness is trustworthy, I can bring people to support you ten days after I leave the camp today."
Shen Qianyu did not speak, but first threw the seal out of his arms.
Jiang Xingjian raised his hand to take it, lowered his head and lowered his eyes for a long time before he chuckled and said, "Your Highness, trust me? Your Highness, aren't you afraid that I will run away from the battle?"
"you will not."
Shen Qianyu said: "Abandoning your family and country? You don't have the courage."
Jiang Xingjian didn't, and neither did he.
Everyone has selfish desires, but everyone also has righteousness in their heart.
They were born in Dongning, even if they did not grow up in Dongning, Dongning blood will always flow in their bodies. All they loved and cherished are left behind.
Therefore, Shen Qianyu believed in Jiang Xingjian and believed that he would fight to the last moment for the people behind him and for the people he loved behind him.
"The commander's seal is given to you. I will send troops today, hoping to catch Qin Rao by surprise."
"If I cannot wait for you to come back, you can stay here for me until reinforcements from the capital arrive."
Jiang Xingjian held the seal in his hand and nodded slowly.
