Use a substitute on your wedding night to scatter the ashes of your entire family

Zhou Caiyao was a greedy person, and coupled with that, there was Nanny Zhao, one of whom had turned her into an old woman in her previous life, and the other of whom had caused her to raise someone else's son for nine years.

According to the time, Nanny Zhao should be back soon.

Once she arrives, the show will begin.

Li Shuangwan asked, "Is your sister married?"

Chen Ping shook his head. "We were engaged when we were young. He was with a young man from the same town. His family had a few acres of land. We were originally going to get married in March next year. Miss Yao's status is different now, so it's impossible for her to marry him. Besides, she's missing, so I decided to cancel the engagement and compensate her with a sum of money. The young man was also an honest man. Although he was reluctant, he finally agreed."

In this life, Li Shuangwan indirectly saved this man. I hope he can keep his eyes open when looking for a wife in the future.

"Thank you for your hard work, go back and rest."

After Chen Ping left, Li Shuangwan just took a short nap and then got up.

It is almost the end time and something big is going to happen today.

Yizhu helped her get up.

Li Shuangwan said, "Call Roman and follow me out of the house."

"Princess, do you want to buy anything?"

"Yeah, just wandering around."

When Roman heard about shopping, she didn't even ask what to buy, but excitedly put the monthly allowance she had just received into her little pocket.

As the two men walked onto the street, they suddenly heard the sound of galloping horses coming.

"Urgent news, urgent news from Yanshan Pass, pedestrians get out of the way!"

"Urgent news, urgent news from Yanshan Pass, pedestrians get out of the way!"

The streets of Shengjing City, which had just been bustling with people, suddenly became crowded with people, and pedestrians immediately dodged to the sides.

Li Shuangwan grabbed the two maids and quickly moved to the side.

Then a fast horse was seen galloping into the city from the outside. The messenger with the command arrow on his back was almost thrown to pieces on the horse, but he still persisted, shouting with a broken voice while riding his horse towards the palace.

"Urgent news, urgent news from Yanshan Pass, pedestrians get out of the way!"

The fast horses flew past Li Shuangwan and others, and the crowd behind them immediately gathered.

"What happened?"

The fast horses flew past Li Shuangwan and others, and the crowd behind them immediately gathered.

"What happened?"

"That was a military report. It only told pedestrians to get out of the way when entering the city gate. It didn't report a great victory. The fast horses went straight to the palace. Sigh..." The person who spoke sighed, "It's not a good sign."

Since ancient times, if there was good news, the messenger would shout "great victory" when rushing into the city gate, in order to let the people of the whole city know and celebrate together.

If it was news of defeat or other bad news, the messenger would only shout "urgent news" so that passers-by would get out of the way.

"Emergency report from Yanshan Pass? That's the border guarded by General He! Yanshan Pass is defending against the Xia army."

"All ten sons of the He family are stationed at Yanshan Pass. There are only women and children in the general's mansion in Shengjing City."

People were worried and whispered.

And Li Shuangwan, who was reborn, knew it clearly.

Just ten days ago, the day she went to Yue Lao Temple, all ten sons of the He family, from General He to the youngest grandson of the thirteen-year-old family, were killed in the battle against the 200,000 cavalrymen of the Xia Kingdom.

She was reborn too late and there was no way she could stop this from happening.

The military report was delivered to the desk of Emperor Jingzhang in Shengjing City at an accelerated speed of eight hundred miles.

The military report stated that General Ming He, despite all the obstructions from the Second Prince Qi Lingyun, who was supervising the army, was determined to use himself and the ten sons of the He family as bait to lure out the Xia army.

Unexpectedly, the anti-Zhongxia army plotted a conspiracy, which resulted in the 30,000-strong He family army being trapped in the canyon and the entire army being annihilated.

All ten sons of the He family also died in the battle.

General He is being reckless and greedy for merit, and he is stubborn in using his troops!

Emperor Jingzhang was furious and immediately ordered the imperial guards to raid the general's mansion and trap all the women and children inside.

During the nearly one month of siege, the imperial guards knew that the General's Mansion was doomed, and a few beasts saw that the women in the mansion were pretty and insulted them.

They were forced to end their lives one by one with white silk.

When the coffins of the ten sons of the He family, with only a few bones left, were transported to Shengjing City, Emperor Jingzhang ignored the fact that the General's Mansion was holding a funeral and the remaining women in the mansion were all still in grief. He immediately ordered the eunuchs to issue an order in the mourning hall, in front of the dead souls, to arrest all the women and children in the mansion and to execute them in the autumn.

How can one bear to recall the scene in prison? Before autumn came, nearly half of the dozens of women and children in the He family had passed away.

Concubine He is the youngest daughter of General He. She has been in the palace for more than 20 years and dared not have her own children in the deep palace. Since she heard that something happened in her mother's family, she knelt outside the imperial study again and again regardless of the cold weather, stating that her father had been a general for more than ten years and was by no means a stubborn person in commanding troops. She asked the emperor to send an imperial envoy to investigate the matter thoroughly.

But Emperor Jingzhang turned a deaf ear to her and even gave her a cup of poisoned wine after the entire He family was wiped out.

The truth came out four years later.

At the end of that year, Ling Heng went on a diplomatic mission to the Kingdom of Xia. After returning, he brought pieces of evidence and witnesses to Emperor Jingzhang.

The cause was not that General He was reckless and used himself and the men of the He family as bait to fall into the trap of the Xia army, but that Ling Yun put a knife to his own neck to force General He in order to gain military merit and return to Shengjing as soon as possible.

It's almost the end of the year, but the war is at a stalemate. If we can't drive the Xia people out of Northern Jin before the New Year, their horses will be fat and strong next year, making it even more difficult to fight them.

Moreover, the soldiers also missed home. They had been away from home for almost a year. Everyone wanted to go home to celebrate the New Year and have a reunion dinner with their wives, children and elders.

Ling Yun also wanted to return to Shengjing as soon as possible.

General He proposed that he would lead 30,000 troops to lure out the Xia army in the Yanshan Pass area.

Then the two deputy generals, General He's eldest son and youngest son, each led 40,000 troops to encircle the Xia army from the left and right wings. The eldest grandson then led the remaining 40,000 He family troops to go around the rear of the Xia army, cutting off their retreat and surrounding the Xia army.

But Ling Yun disagreed.

He said that since they wanted to lure out the Xia army, General He alone would definitely not be enough, and if they wanted to perform a show they had to make it real.

The Xia army has been suppressed by the He army for many years, and must hate the He family to the core. If all the members of the He family go into battle, the Xia army will definitely have no scruples.

He then led the remaining 120,000 people according to the original plan.

This is the most crucial blow that determines victory or defeat.

General He and other veteran generals naturally disagreed, thinking that this move was too risky.

Ling Yun put a sword to his neck, threatening to die.

General He was left with no choice but to bring all the men of the He family with him. Before they set off, he gave them many instructions and warned them to follow the original plan and reach Yanshan Pass before noon the next day.

However, the most unpredictable thing in this world is the human heart.

Ling Yun was two days late and only arrived with his army on the fourth day.

General He, who had been waiting for no reinforcements, fought with his He family soldiers and nine He family men until the last moment, but was burned to the point of being left with only a few bones.
