Chapter 85 Female General (2) Yan Yan raised his eyes and looked directly at her: "Do you really think he died for you?" Xiao Hongfan turned back and glanced out the window, and after a long time he said slowly: "He died for power." Lu Pingzhang died in the battle, not because of the bravery of the soldiers of Xiao Chen State, but because of the internal power struggle in Qu State. After the death of General Xiao, the Xiao family army was about to become a piece of loose sand. The old Xiao family troops were afraid that the birds would be exhausted and the rabbits would die, and the dogs would be cooked. They were unwilling to lose support, so they used Xiao Hongfan to forcibly preserve the Xiao family army. Lu Pingzhang spent ten years gathering the Xiao Jiajun, hoping to turn it into the "Lu Jiajun" step by step, which was simply a dream. He died because he was too obsessed with power and could not see the situation clearly. Qu Guo's surname is Qu. Whether it is the Xiao Jiajun or the Lu Jiajun, they are an eyesore. Moreover, it was the times that created Xiao Jiajun, which is difficult to copy. The Xiao family was the founding fathers of the country. Later, they guarded the border for generations. They were all brave and good at fighting. They created an impressive record of not losing a single battle in eighty years. They pushed Qu State's territory six hundred miles south. It is said that most of Qu State's power depends on Xiao. It is not an exaggeration to say that the family was beaten down.
"Is there any quarrel between you and Lu Pingzhang?" Yan Chu asked tentatively. When Xiao Hongfan heard this, he fell into memories and looked a little dazed. She has been influenced by it since she was a child, hoping that one day she could die to serve her country. She practices diligently every day, acquires superb martial arts, and is familiar with the art of war. However, although the Xiao family was full of loyalties, only Xiao Hongfan was left in this generation, and no one approved of her taking over the Xiao family army at that time. Because she, Xiao Hongfan, is a woman. Even if she is an eagle, she is destined to be unable to spread her wings and fly high. After General Xiao's death, she married a young and promising general in the Xiao family army with the help of her father's old men. After marriage, the couple treated each other with respect, and on the surface their relationship was not too bad. However, she has not been pregnant for nearly ten years, and she is still surrounded by rumors. There were rumors outside that her martial arts practice was too vigorous, which hurt her body and made her infertile... At every banquet where ladies gathered, she had to accept genuine or false "welcomes". Later, she was tired of coping and directly She didn't go to the banquet, so she became more and more different. Those people discussed it more happily behind her back, and there were always some "good Samaritans" who specially conveyed those words to her ears. Xiao Hongfan was so bored that he simply moved to a village in the suburbs, where he practiced martial arts, plowed the fields, and hunted every day, and lived a comfortable life. Just thinking about Lu Pingzhang made her feel depressed. He was polite and courteous to her, neither getting close nor neglecting her. She was not a coquettish and clingy person, so the two of them always got along with each other in a neutral way. She thought there was nothing wrong with this, but it wasn't until she stayed in the capital that she gradually felt that this marriage seemed to be dragging her into an unknown abyss bit by bit... "Is it discord..." Xiao Hongfan shook his head, "That's not the case." It's just that they have been married for ten years and they are not very familiar with each other yet. Only then did Xiao Hongfan suddenly realize what Yan Chen wanted to say. Cultivation will indeed make it harder for a woman to get pregnant, but it will not make her infertile. When she and Lu Pingzhang first got married, they used to accompany the border guards, but for some unknown reason, about a year later, Lu Pingzhang returned to Beijing to report on his duties, so he left her alone in the capital.
Most of the relatives of General Qu's border guards stayed in the capital, and no one found it strange that Xiao Hongfan stayed behind. However, the strange thing was that the couple were separated, but Xiao Hongfan was almost drowned in rumors because he had no children. Yan Chu said he couldn't understand it at all. Wouldn't it be weird if she got pregnant alone in the capital? Lu Pingzhang is not an orphan without a father and mother. Why would he leave his wife, who has been married for a year, in the capital? He only loves power and has no affection for Xiao Hongfan at all. "He is heartless, and I don't necessarily care about him that much." Xiao Hongfan helplessly stroked the white flowers on his temples, "It's just that I'm a caged bird, so my situation seems even worse." Yan Yan looked at her with a slight change in his eyes: "Struggle for power and profit is worthy of being an enemy. If he wants to seize the Xiao family army from you, what will he do?"
