"My lord, what should I do with Nie Yang's corpse?"
Seeing Jiang Pengji walking out of the tent, Wei Ci hurried forward to ask.
Jiang Pengji said, "Nie Yang left his last words before his death, hoping that I can burn his body on fire."
Burning
Wei Ci's eyes showed consternation. Although her lord liked to burn the corpses of enemy and allied soldiers on the battlefield, it was also a last resort because the decay of corpses easily caused a large-scale plague. In today's fashion, corpses are not allowed to be desecrated, let alone burning. Unexpectedly, Huo Fen was actually proposed by Nie Yang himself.
"Why... did he leave such a last word?"
Wei Ci was puzzled. According to what he knew about Nie Yang in the previous life, although this young man was young, he was not a good person.
"He said that he's worthy of the heaven and the earth, but he still owes one person in the end. The decision he made to burn is probably related to the person he owes, perhaps to atone for himself." Jiang Pengji said, "I'm just like If his wishes are fulfilled, the ashes should be returned to Nie Ying."
"promise."
The moment Nie Yang died and the system was destroyed, not only did Nie Yang's body return to its original appearance, but Nie Qing, who was far away in Nie Ying, also noticed it, and a strange throbbing came from his chest. There was a strange feeling all over the body, as if some insects were squirming around.
"father in law-"
Nie Qing couldn't help but shout, Wei Xin and Fan Chen, who were sitting outside waiting patiently, rushed in when they heard the movement.
"Little Lord!"
"Lord!"
When the two called him, they saw a scene that they will never forget in their entire lives.
They saw with their own eyes that Nie Qing's body was a little longer, his shoulders were a little wider, and his face had undergone earth-shaking changes.
"What's wrong with the young master?"
Seeing that Nie Qing had regained his original appearance, Wei Xian breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly stepped forward to grab his arms, and carefully examined him up and down several times, his eyes overflowing with excitement. When he realized that his behavior had the following meaning, he quickly retracted his arms.
Nie Qing said gently, "There is nothing uncomfortable, my father-in-law is relieved."
Fan Chen stepped forward and said with a smile, "So, the demon and Nie Yang have already been executed? I don't need to worry anymore."
Nie Qingzheng was about to show a slight smile, but when he heard Nie Yang Fuzhu's words, the corners of his lips that had just risen stiffened a bit, and silently retreated.
Seeing his reaction, Wei Xian felt a little worried in his heart, but he couldn't say anything more.
"Young Master, this matter should not be publicized. Nie Yang slaughtered his relatives and murdered the Young Master for his own selfish desires. Now that he has been executed, this matter is considered closed, and Nie's side can also explain it. The most important thing for now is to first The Lord will help Ling to return home, the young master will rest for a while tonight and leave tomorrow." Wei Xin threw the blame for killing Nie Liang's elders before Nie Liang's death on Nie Yang in a few words.
Anyway, Nie Yang is already a dead person. No matter how much he throws the blame, he can still get up from the ground and protest
Nie Qing looked at the soul and obeyed Wei Xin's arrangement.
Soon after sunset, Jiang Pengji sent someone to put Nie Yang's ashes in a clay box and sent it to Nie Ying, along with Nie Yang's last words.
Nie Qing was silent for a long time after hearing this, staring at the altar of ashes, wondering what he was thinking.
Wei Xian asked him what to do with the altar of ashes. What Nie Yang did was destined to not be buried in the ancestral grave.
If Wei Xian was to decide, he wanted to scatter all the ashes and let Nie Yang be a lonely ghost all his life.
Nie Qing said, "Father-in-law, I want to take him back to Bianzhou and find a place to bury him."
Everyone is already dead, and Nie Qing doesn't want to continue to investigate
Even if Nie Yang's ashes were scattered, what was the use other than venting his anger
Rather than torturing the souls of the dead, it is better to lash out the hearts of the living.
Wei Wei said, "Everything should be according to what the young master said."
Nie Qing asked again, "On Liu Xi's side... Is there any other entrustment to my father before his death?"
The two armies faced off against each other, only because of Nie Liang's funeral, but the battle was still to be fought, unless one side retreated.
Jiang Pengji currently has the upper hand, and Nie's losses are not small, but they have not reached the point where they must withdraw their troops.
Wei Yu said, "The First Lord did make arrangements before he died, but it was just because Nie Yang's affairs were temporarily put on hold."
Nie Qing heaved a sigh of relief and said, "It's so good, the front-line matters will trouble my father-in-law."
There was no delay in Fuling returning home, and Nie Qing set off on the next day.
After secretly sending Nie Qing away, Wei Xian's face turned gloomy, and his eyes looking at Zhanjiangguan showed a bit of anger.
Even though Nie Liang was poisoned by Nie Yang, Jiang Pengji was the one who angered Nie Liang again and again and caused his premature death.
This debt has to be repaid.
Jiang Pengji laughed dumbly when she saw the battle book in her hand, and said helplessly, "I just helped them with my front foot, and they will deal with me with my hind foot."
The salted fish expressed their contempt. After all, they knew what Jiang Pengji had done.
[Smuggling to Africa]: Wei Xian said that he wanted to slap the anchor, but Nie Liang's first seven had passed, and if he didn't say it again, he was slapped in the face.
[Gatorade]: The anchor tells the wicked to file a complaint first. It’s clear that you were the one who got mad at Nie Liang first, and it’s okay for them to hate you.
Jiang Pengji shook his head, raised his hand and folded the war book on the table, and shouted loudly from outside the tent, "Quickly call for a few military advisors."
Before the soldier had time to lift his feet, he saw Qi Guan let the wind blow under his feet from a distance, and walked towards the handsome tent with a dignified expression.
"Wenzhen, you came just in time, I have something to look for you."
Guan Qi gave way, "My lord is not in a hurry, let's have an urgent report from Zhangzhou here."
Jiang Pengji stretched out her hand to take the letter from Qi Guanrang, and said, "Forget it, Nie Liang is dead, and the Nie clan is headless. Nie Qing is still a young child, so it's really not a big threat. What happened in Zhangzhou? , why is Wen Zheng so anxious?"
It is said to be an urgent report, but it is actually old news from several days ago.
Jiang Pengji opened the letter and read it in ten lines at a glance, her brows became tighter and tighter, and clusters of flames rose from her heart.
"The group of nobles in Zhangzhou... Are they all itchy?"
Jiang Pengji did not expect that the first problem he encountered was not from Yang Tao's forces, but from the Zhangzhou gentry.
In order to further understand the situation of the waters in Zhangzhou, Yang Si and others moved forward layer by layer by clearing the water bandits, and then encountered the obstruction of the navy under Yang Tao's tent. The two sides broke out several small-scale water battles. Hard to beat.
Looking at this battle, the nobles in Zhangzhou began to sit still.
When they heard the news of Nie Liang's death before the battle, the balance began to tilt in Jiang Pengji's favor.
Yang Tao's army is small and weak, and Jiang Pengji is still able to fight two and one with ease. The result of this battle is not optimistic.
In order to protect the family's status and rights in Zhangzhou, they began to secretly contact Jiang Pengji's soldiers and horses.
