To the people of Youzhou, the White Horse Righteous Consort was like the Eighteen Horsemen of Yanyun that had disappeared for decades. They only existed in legends.
However, this did not stop everyone from remembering them. There were even some people who firmly believed in their hearts: The White Horse Righteous Follower and the Eighteen Cavalrymen of Yanyun had never disappeared!
They had been silently guarding Youzhou since then!
"That night…"
Yang Yong recounted his experience for about the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn. Luo Yan and Elder Tang added some details at the end.
The entire place was silent!
The atmosphere was so oppressive that it was scary. Grandfather Han and the others were all livid. Even Han Qianxue, the little loli, had to hide behind her sister.
After a while, Old Master Han stood up from his seat. He raised his wine glass and said solemnly,
"Sacrifice the heroic souls from afar. Cheers to them!"
He poured the wine in his cup onto the ground, and the others followed suit, wanting to use the wine to express their grief.
"Heroic Soul Sacrifice!"
Tears blurred the vision of some people. They seemed to see…
Under the bright moonlight, dozens of figures on white horses were charging at the tens of thousands of black cavalry in a decisive manner.
Some people could vaguely see it!
In the blood-colored sunset, an old man who was sobbing silently stabbed a broken halberd into the ground. That was…
The general used it!
For some reason, whenever Han Ruxue thought of that tragic scene, Li Qiu's bloodstained face appeared in her mind.
He seemed to be smiling!
Was he one of those white figures?
Han Ruxue did not know, nor did she dare to think too much. She only knew that her heart was aching.
"Old Han, let me ask you something."
Elder Tang's expression was solemn as he stared at Elder Han with bright eyes.
"Speak!" Han Song nodded slightly.
"White Horse Righteous Servant, is he from the Han Clan?”Elder Tang's words were shocking.
In Youzhou Province, the Han Clan was the most capable person who could train such a terrifying cavalry silently!
"Hmm?"
To Elder Tang's disappointment, a trace of confusion flashed across Elder Han's eyes.
"Looks like it's not…" He fell silent.
"What happened?" Han Song frowned.
"We once speculated…The leader is Li Qiu!"
Yang Yong said.
His words shocked the Han family members in the room. Han Yi immediately shook his head."Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Li Qiu was famous in Youzhou for being "useless". He didn't even dare to enter the bridal chamber. How could he be called a man?
To put it bluntly, if not for Old Master Han, Li Qiu, who had repeatedly humiliated the Han family, would have been chased out long ago.
These family guards were all extremely loyal to the family and had always looked down on Li Qiu, thinking that he was not worthy of the young miss.
In fact, the original Li Qiu…
It really was so!
"Cough cough!"
Han Song coughed twice, looked at Commandant Yang, and said," Tell me."”
Both Yang Yong and Elder Tang voiced out their guesses one after another. Putting aside objective factors, their deductions were undoubtedly correct!
But...
The person who could run amuck on the battlefield was the cowardly Li Qiu?
Even Old Master Han, who had always trusted Li Qiu, could not believe it!
This was blasphemy!
"Who knew that red clothes were originally white, and who knew that China's bones were sad? Who would have thought that General…He was not a general! You old fart, this sentence was quite apt.”
Han Song muttered, tears flashing in his old eyes.
He knew that Elder Tang was good at identifying people. The white-robed general who appeared out of nowhere should be a young man.
He had also shouldered too much!
The others were silent.
"Pa da…"
The little loli noticed the tears on the table and muttered softly,"
"Sis, what's wrong?"
Han Ruxue shook her head slightly, indicating for her to keep quiet.
She had a faint premonition that this person was very likely Li Qiu!
However, this…
It was too unbelievable!
"Old Han, who exactly is that person in your family?”Old Master Tang was puzzled.
Han Song had been shrewd for a lifetime, yet he had actually married Han Ruxue off to a good-for-nothing and even treated her as his own. This was something that many people could not understand.
Because of this, Elder Tang deduced that Li Qiu had been hiding her strength and pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger!
"He's Duke Cheng's youngest son! Li Chenggong has done great kindness to my Han family!”Old Master Han said.
Li Chenggong was Li Hun, one of the nine elders of the Sui Dynasty. He had followed Yang Jian to the south and fought north, making great contributions to the Sui Dynasty.
He was given the title of Duke Cheng, which was also Emperor Wen's affirmation of his achievements!
After Yang Guang ascended the throne, a prophecy appeared among the people," Li will become the Son of Heaven!"
Other than Li Yuan, there was also Li Hun.
Li Hun had always been more meritorious than his master, so he became the scapegoat and was exterminated by Yang Guang. Only Li Rongrong escaped and was now Qin Qiong's wife.
Strictly speaking, the Great Tang Imperial Family still owed Li Qiu!
