She thought she understood Qishan, but she didn't expect that he could always give her "different surprises" and refresh her moral bottom line again and again. I have to say it, you are indeed worthy of being you!
Last time, she disguised herself as Jiang Sheng’s wife to stab him in the back.
This time he was even more straightforward, directly turning into a love scammer to deceive the innocent heart of the naive boy? On second thought, it was really hard for a person who could draw a secret picture to make it ignite remotely to have any moral integrity. Shen Tang's expression was almost tangled.
"Yuan Liang... seduced your son?"
Shen Tang's words were shocking.
Everyone eating melons: “…”
The attention was completely drawn to her.
Yong, or Lord Yong, actually asked it!
Xun Zhen's face changed and he moved closer to the bitter melon juice.
Qi Shan gave her a glare that was full of unkindness.
But the current Shen Tang is no longer the Shen Tang of the past. His threat is like a tickle and is dispensable.
"Seduce, seduce... Not really, because my son was younger than you are now." Xun Zhen took a while to adjust his mood. He almost lost the question after being asked by Shen Tang, and continued, "If that's the case, he Qi Yuanliang... Humph!"
Those who understand will understand what is left unsaid.
If Qishan really harmed his son like this, Xun Zhen would not be able to bear it and would have drawn his sword to fight him to the death. Of course, the wicked things Qishan actually did were not much better.
Shen Tang nodded and said, "And then?"
“… because my son is the only flesh and blood of Zhen and his late wife… He had a difficult life and was weak when he was young, so he was spoiled and became somewhat naive and ignorant of the ways of the world… Who knew how sinister the human heart could be?” Talking about this troublesome son, Xun Zhen felt a mixture of love, anger and helplessness.
He and his late wife were childhood sweethearts.
Accompanying each other in childhood and falling in love when young.
The couple had a deep affection and supported each other for many years. The only regret was that his wife was involved in a vicious fight in the inner house when she was young, and accidentally ate something harmful to her health, which made her weak and sickly and difficult to give birth. This child was conceived unexpectedly many years after they got married.
The couple were ecstatic and regarded it as a gift from God.
After going through so much trouble to save the baby, the mother and child almost died due to dystocia during childbirth. The two devoted countless efforts to the child, taking good care of him, watching him grow up year after year. The effort spent on this is beyond the imagination of outsiders.
My wife's health has never been good.
I worked so hard that I exhausted all my energy and was taken away by the cold.
Xun Zhen could only endure the pain of losing his wife and focus all his attention on his son. In order to protect his only son and let him grow up smoothly, he wanted to keep the child by his side every day, and at the same time, he strictly guarded against all factors that would cause the child to die!
However, the relatively closed growing environment and his father's strict parenting style still brought serious sequelae.
It was easy to fool his son when he was young, but he became more and more difficult to control as he grew older. He was in his rebellious period and met Qi Yuanliang who had evil intentions. The combination of the two was a disaster! Shen Tang summarized the conflict between father and son.
Basically -
Xun·Old Father·Zhen, Erkang said: Son, it's dangerous outside, don't leave your father's sight!
Xun·Rebellious Period·The son refused, raised his head high, and refused to cooperate with non-violence: No! No! No! What I want is a sky high for birds to fly and a sea wide for fish to jump! I want to put an end to all the injustices in the world and kill all the people who deserve to be killed!
Gu Chi: “…Puff.”
Someone cast a look at him, and he tried to suppress his smile and explained, "I suddenly thought of something funny."
Everyone: “…”
After a routine father-son dispute, Xun Zhen's son was so angry that he rode out of the city to hunt and relieve himself. He happened to meet Qi Shan, the girl in distress, who was being hunted. The boy had always longed for the chivalrous spirit of traveling the world with a sword and shouting at the injustice. When he saw the girl in distress, he immediately saved her with a sense of justice, "saving people to the end and sending Buddha to the west", and he also helped Qi Shan hide.
As long as Qishan is willing, he can easily fill up anyone's favorability - except enemies. How can a young boy who is not experienced in the world stand it? It only takes a few days for him to become his confidant, trust his deceitful mouth, and take the initiative to confess his inner distress.
For example, my father Xun Zhen’s strict discipline...
For example, the boredom of being confined to a small world...
For example, his father Xun Zhen always underestimated his ability...
He is a man, born in this world, he should make great contributions. Whether it is fighting on the battlefield or assisting the wise master to build meritorious careers... Anyway, he is not controlled by his father in every way, even his food and drink are strictly restricted. He is not a child who has not been weaned!
He knows his own body.
He is in great health now!
After all, he is a brave warrior, right
Seeing the boy's distress, Qishan "felt sympathy" and gradually "opened his heart" to tell him a lot - the rolling green hills under the misty rain, the vast blue sea and blue sky. He used pen and ink to describe the dancing silver snakes on the mountains and the lonely smoke in the desert. All of these were the waves of mountains and rivers that the boy had never seen, and they were also the new world that he was eager to break free from and yearn to enter.
"You are being nice to me for no reason..." Shen Tang muttered. Based on her understanding of Qi Shan, he would not put effort into things or people that would not benefit him. If he tried so hard to get close to the boy, he must have other intentions. "He is either a traitor or a thief."
Xun Zhen's face darkened: "That's exactly it."
Qishan: “…”
Whose side is his master on
With his ability, he wanted to escape - the enemy couldn't even see his shadow, let alone chase him. It was actually a play, a play that was ostensibly about "a righteous young man rescuing a girl in distress", but in fact it was a play against Xun Zhen, a calculation.
At that time, Xun Zhen devoted all his energy to his son and had no time to care about the setbacks in his official career.
After all, he is a scholar of literature.
Even if you are restricted everywhere, it is not difficult to find a job.
At that time, his position was not high, and he could barely be considered a local official. No matter how fiercely the forces above him fought, he had no intention of intervening. Naturally, the place where he served was not important. The only special thing was that there was an important town nearby.
This place is a battleground for military strategists.
At the same time, he is also a thorn in the eyes of a certain lord in Qishan.
Due to the lack of troops, if they want to successfully capture this piece of fat meat, they must deal with the troops from nearby counties and towns that are ready to support them at any time. Qi Shan has a sharp eye and does not care about other places. He only focuses on Xun Zhen, thinking that this person will become a hidden danger.
To be absolutely sure, they must find a way to pin down Xun Zhen so that he has no time to send troops to support them on the day they start the rebellion.
then-
The above happened.
Qishan did not confront Xun Zhen directly.
He started with Xun Zhen’s most precious son.
As a close friend and elder sister, she instigated a conflict between the rebellious boy and his old father, and encouraged the boy to run away from home and see the vast world outside. Xun Zhen reacted quickly and immediately discovered that her son was abnormal and came to arrest him.
The boy was almost moved by his old father.
At this time, Qishan made a bold move.
He faked his death to escape and arouse the conflict between the father and son, causing misunderstandings between the two. The boy never thought that his father would be so tyrannical that he would kill innocent people in order to restrain him!
Instantly, a strong feeling of suffocation made his whole body tremble.
Xun Zhen saw what was going on and wanted to explain, but his son just refused to listen and beat the servants who tried to stop him and ran away.
At this time, an important town was attacked.
Xun Zhen had never heard of this before.
Why didn't you receive it
Because his good son was deceived by Qi Shan! Qi Yuanliang deceived the boy and told him that if he wanted to escape, he had to create some chaos. What could be more chaotic than a fire? In order to delay time, it is best to make a big fuss before starting the fire...
It would be best if the place for the commotion could distract Xun Zhen from his energy, so Da'er thought of Xun Zhen's office.
_(:з)∠?)_
After a good show of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, Xun Zhen's eldest son ran away from home, and the important town was lost. There were troops stationed in various places nearby, and Xun Zhen's side was the last to send troops, but arrived the earliest. Although he fought bravely, the situation was hopeless, and he had no foundation...
If you don't resign, you will be used as a scapegoat.
He simply resigned from his official position and went to look for his son.
By the way —
We must find Qi Yuanliang!
He saw everything clearly in front of the two armies.
The aura of the scholar in Confucian robes is consistent with that of the girl in distress. They are obviously the same person. This is all a conspiracy!
Shen Tang: “…
The rest of the people: “…”
They all looked at Qi Yuanliang.
Qi Shan said frankly: "That's roughly it."
I don't feel guilty at all.
Even though he was not justified, he still felt confident: "If Xun Hanzhang can't raise his son well, what does it have to do with me? A boy of twelve or thirteen is innocent and ignorant of the world. Even if he doesn't get fooled by me, he will fall into the next trap. Don't you think this makes sense?"
Xun Zhen was so angry that he drew his sword.
Anger rose and his eyes were blazing.
"What else?"
Qi Shan frowned and said, "My lord participated in the battle of Xiaocheng when he was only twelve years old. I understand your feelings as a father, but what good is it to keep your child captive? Your son has a lot of resentment towards you. Even without me, he would leave."
To put it bluntly, it is a conflict between father and son.
He just took advantage of it a little bit.
If the contradiction does not exist, he cannot instigate it.
Shen Tang, who was inexplicably cueed, said: “???”
Xun Zhen said anxiously: "... He is weak and there is chaos outside. If anything happens to him..."
He couldn't remember how many times his son had a fever when he was young. At first, he and his deceased wife took turns to stay by his bedside, taking care of him day and night. Later, he was the only one who kept watch over him through the long night, from dusk to day, and only dared to relax when his body temperature returned to normal.
How can Qishan understand this kind of mood
He was even more afraid that his son would die in a corner that he could not see! That corner might be the land he had stepped on before, or it might be a lonely grave that he had passed by one day but never noticed. His soul had nowhere to go and would sleep forever in a foreign land far away from his homeland.
Xun Zhen knew that his son's rebellion and running away from home had a lot to do with his overprotection. After that incident, he reflected for a long time and realized that the young eagle would eventually spread its wings and fly high.
But, but at least let me know his whereabouts.
The current situation is -
The rebellious eldest son could not forgive his old father for accidentally killing his innocent and intimate elder sister, so he deliberately avoided him. In this era when a letter from home is worth a thousand pieces of gold and "meeting an old friend in a foreign land" is one of the four great joys in life, looking for someone is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Qi Shan curled his lips: "Nothing serious happened..."
Xun Zhen put down his sword and asked, "What do you mean?"
Qi Shan said: "I saw it more than two years ago."
Xun Zhen asked: "Where?"
"A teahouse in a remote post station."
That was more than a month before I met Shen Tang.
At that time, Qishan and the young man were in opposite moods. The former was at a loss as to where his future would lead him, while the latter was drinking and singing. Their lives were not as refined as before, but they were somewhat broad-minded and heroic. The young man did not recognize Qishan, but just thought that this scholar was amiable.
The two had a very pleasant conversation.
Qishan squeezed a lot of words out of the other person's mouth.
Hearing that he was doing well, I stopped bothering him.
Xun Zhen asked hurriedly: "What about him?"
Qi Shan said: "It has grown a lot."
What was not mentioned was that the boy… no, should I say young man, was full of banditry, leading a group of younger brothers to rob the rich and help the poor, and personally fulfilling his original promise. However, looking at the official seal hanging around the other party's waist, he was not so sure.
Xun Zhen asked: "Which post station?"
Qi Shan shook his head: "How can I remember this clearly?"
He wasn't lying.
He really didn't know the exact location of the post station.
At that time, he had defeated a lord who was two-faced. His scholarly ways backfired severely, and his health deteriorated. He had to rest for two days after walking for one day. "At that time, my mind was in a daze, and I happened to come across an old place nearby, so I thought about revisiting it..."
I got lost in the woods and found the post station by accident.
Meeting Xun Zhen's son was purely a coincidence.
After a conversation, they parted.
He also didn't know where the other party was at.
"old haunt?"
"An unknown valley." Qi Shan paused, then glanced at Shen Tang, "It used to be the land of Gong Xichou's clan, but that place was abandoned after the genocide. Now it's a barren valley. I guess your son is a captain somewhere nearby."
After hearing about his son's whereabouts, Xun Zhen's anger eased a lot and was replaced by worry, but Qi Shan exposed his anger.
"You're going to look for him?"
After hesitating for a while, Xun Zhen shook his head and said, "No."
How many eagles that have soared into the sky after leaving the nest and are accustomed to the vast sky would be willing to return to the control of their old eagles
Xun Zhen wasn't sure if he could just hold back.
That's all.
Let him fly.
Thinking of this, another idea came to my mind.
If there is a chance in the future, and the Lord expands his territory to the doorstep of the rebellious son, he, as an old father, would not mind rolling up his sleeves and teaching his son a lesson.
Do you know how worried he is
Qishan: “…”
Shen Tang was full of melons and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but privately asked Qi Shan: "Yuan Liang, is Han Zhang's son really still alive?"
Qi Shan said with a smile: "My lord, do you think that I made up a lie just to keep Xun Hanzhang stable?"
Shen Tang said seriously: "I do have this worry."
"What if it's fabricated?"
Shen Tang lowered his eyes: "I will keep it a secret for you."
There is still work to do afterward.
She didn't say how to deal with the aftermath.
"This is not what a gentleman does." Qi Shan sighed, "My lord, you should be a gentleman respected by all the people. Xun Hanzhang can be used... Qi Shan did not lie. The child is indeed still alive, but he looks a little crooked. If Xun Hanzhang knew..."
Qi Shan did not hide anything from Shen Tang and told him everything.
Shen Tang: “…”
Any old father would have high blood pressure if he knew that his son behaved like a bandit and robbed houses.
She pondered for a while: "Even so, I still have to send someone to contact them, even if it's just a letter from home..."
A letter from a son can win people's hearts and minds much better than countless gold, silver and treasures.
Qi Shan saw her intention and hummed.

While resting in a teahouse, the merchant at the next table slapped the wooden table.
