I became the cannon fodder who died early, and I angrily married the villain

In front of the hall, the ministers saw Zhang Xian being asked to leave by the eunuch chief steward. They felt so bad.

Zhang Xian was obviously going to be a favorite of the new emperor. They didn't dare to offend him. They planned to wait and see for a while to see whether he could rise or end up like the previous ministers. However, referring to Lv Desheng's long-lasting history of ascending to power during Emperor Kangcheng's lifetime, it is estimated that Zhang Xian would not fall so easily.

Then, they all glared at Lv Desheng, damn Lv Desheng! Didn't you say that you would not accept disciples or instruct others? Do you dare to say that Zhang Xian was not taught by you? Do you have any shame?

The officials of Zuo Anmin's faction beat their chests and stamped their feet, saying, "Master Zuo, why did you go out of town to do business today? Do you know that your home was robbed just because you were away for such a day? Damn Lv Desheng!"

Seeing Zhang Xian ascend to power smoothly, Lv Desheng was very happy. He thought, did she receive the letter he wrote to his precious daughter?

Prince Gong was still a good man. He greeted Lv Desheng, "Lord Lv, are you going home?"

"No."

Oh, is the coward trying to stick his head out? Lv Desheng basically never went to court now. He stayed at home all day long and it was difficult for others to invite him out.

"Not going home, where are you going, Lord Lv?"

"To Mingyue Restaurant."

Mingyue Restaurant, formerly Hongsheng Restaurant, became famous because of the debate competition. Later, the Xie and Zhao families fell, and Hongsheng Restaurant changed its owner. The new owner disliked its unlucky name and changed it to Mingyue Restaurant.

Lv Desheng actually liked to come to this restaurant, all because there were several signs in his house that his wife liked very much.

Among his colleagues, one of them, the Imperial Censor Xu Yue, saw him so leisurely and couldn't help but say to him sourly, "If you didn't have a good daughter, you would have accompanied the late emperor long ago."

Lv Desheng glanced at him, "You are so right, I have no ability, the only thing I can show off is that I have a good daughter."

Xu Yue was choked by his words.

The other ministers looked at Xu Yue unexpectedly, can he speak? Are you scolding him? You are praising him! There are two great joys in life, one is to achieve success and fame, and the other is to have successors. They thought about the unfilial descendants in their family and couldn't help glaring at him again.

Xu Yue, who was glared at by the adults, snorted at Lu Desheng, "No matter how powerful your daughter is, she was still exiled. Women are weak and fragile, so don't die on the road to exile."

This angered Lu Desheng. Originally, he was in a good mood today and didn't bother to deal with some stupid things. However, the other party cursed his daughter, so he couldn't just let it go.

Lu Desheng glanced at Xu Yue and recognized him. Shen Wan, the minister of state, had brought him here before, wanting him to teach him, but he refused.

This guy looks sour now, maybe he is holding a grudge against me?

"Your name is Xu Yue? They said you look a bit like me? Want me to teach you a thing or two?"

Xu Yue blushed.

"Bah, look at your thin cheeks, pointed face, and lack of luck and virtue, how are you like me? Unlucky thing! Don't compare yourself with me in the future! Otherwise, I will scold you every time I see you!" Lu Desheng looked disgusted.

Ministers: Here it comes, the long-lost poisonous mouth is back again.

"You——" Xu Yue's face was blue and purple after being scolded. He looked at Lu Desheng and wanted to talk about his appearance, but found that this old man was indeed more handsome than him. There was nothing wrong with his appearance, so he attacked his character!

"Lv Desheng, what's so great about you? After the death of the previous emperor, you were like a turtle, not even daring to show your head. What are you proud of?" Old man, you still look down on him?

Lv Desheng gave him a look that said "what do you know?" What's wrong with him being a coward?

"Just because you slandered me when I failed to become your apprentice, even if you learned it, you are still an ungrateful person who betrayed your master and ancestors. Fortunately, I have a sharp eye and rejected you, what a shit."

Xu Yue's face turned pale and blue after being scolded by him. His words were equivalent to defining his character. It was too serious. He looked at his colleagues around him, and they avoided his gaze one by one.

After Lv Desheng finished speaking, he looked around again. His colleagues looked away one by one. He even found someone laughing...

Lv Desheng hummed in his heart. Don't think that he didn't go out during this period of time, so he didn't know what these people were thinking. They thought he, Lv Desheng, was a coward.

What's wrong with him listening to his daughter's instructions? What's wrong with listening to his wife? They were right, so he listened.

In Lv Desheng's opinion, they were really pitiful. They had been worrying about this and that all their lives, doing everything by themselves. At an old age, they still had to worry about their unfilial descendants!

Thinking of this, he snorted, shook his sleeves, and strode away.

Jiangzhou

After walking for nearly two months, the Xie and Zhao families finally entered the territory of Jiangzhou. Beyond Jiangzhou is Lingnan.

On this day, Xie Zhan convened the core members of the Xie and Zhao families and held a meeting. On the Xie family side, there were elders such as Xie Qian and Xie Yuan, as well as core members of the new generation such as Xie Nan and Xie Bai. The Zhao family was mainly composed of Zhao Wenkuan and the three brothers Zhao Minglou.

At this time, Mo Gang, the bailiff, found Xie Zhan with a serious face, "No more deaths."

So far, before arriving in Lingnan, eight people in their bailiff and runners have died, and the loss is too great.

If more people die for no reason, he will not be able to explain when he returns.

Xie Zhan nodded, "I understand. Thank you for your help, Brother Mo."

Mo Gang glanced at everyone present, then walked away, looking back every few steps.

After he returned to the escort team, he still looked in the direction of Xie Zhan and the others from time to time.

This scene was seen by another Oshi, named Xiao, who sneered and went to rest.

With the cooperation of Mo Gang, Xie Zhan found an opportunity to have a profound conversation with the surviving Xie clan members.

Xie Zhan looked at the numb and lifeless faces of the clan members, and said in a low voice, "Although I really don't want to admit it, as the head of the family, I have to say that from the twenty-ninth day of Tianxi to the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month to the next few years , is the darkest moment for our Xie family.”

"From the beginning of the disaster, along the way, we have sacrificed too many people. Looking at the lives lost one by one, I feel deeply heartbroken and regretful. I feel sad for those old people and children, and I feel sorry for the young people of my Xie family. At the same time, I also hate My own incompetence.”

Xie Nan: "Master, I can't blame you for this. It's not your fault."

Xie Qian: "Yeah, it's all Lu Songli's fault, she's too cruel."

Xie Zhan shook his head, "It's all my fault. If only I hadn't gone into the water to save the wrong person, our Xie family wouldn't have suffered this disaster."

"How can I blame you?"

Xie Zhan's words aroused the emotions of the clan members. Yes, what's wrong with their family head? What's wrong with their Xie family? To suffer this? Lu Songli is too cruel.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this, let's talk about the future." Xie Zhan said sincerely, "I believe that for our Xie family, the darkest moment will pass. I believe that our Xie family will not die just like this. Genocide! One day, we can defeat our opponents and our Xie family can regain its former glory!"

Xie Zhan knew very well that the clansmen had just fallen from a high place. Talking to them about wealth, future, and status alone would not attract them or mobilize their enthusiasm.

Xie Zhan guessed well. Many of them still feel that what they experienced is like a nightmare.

They just want everything to return to the way it was before, for the family to return to its original status, and for them to regain their previous lives. Only what Xie Zhan, the head of the family, said just now can deeply attract and move them.

To achieve this goal, they are willing to work together with the family head.

"Yes, yes, it can definitely be done!"

"However, this is not something I can do alone. It requires everyone to work hard together. Are you willing to work hard with me?"

"Yes! Yes! Yes!"

"Okay! Next, let's work hard together. We may need to work hard for one year, two years, or even three, five, seven years! But I, Xie Zhan, will not give up!"

"Don't give up! Don't give up!"

"I can't guarantee that there will be no sacrifices in the process of hard work. For the rejuvenation of the family, including myself, I can sacrifice if necessary."

"But I can guarantee that every sacrifice of our tribe will be remembered, and when the family becomes stronger again, there will be some rewards!" After saying that, Xie Zhan bowed deeply to the tribesmen.

The Xie clan members were quiet and watched with red eyes as their young and promising head of the family saluted them. They all covered their mouths and did not dare to cry.

As for the sacrifice mentioned by the family leader, so many clan members died along the way, isn't it also a sacrifice? And the sacrifice is meaningless. They deeply realized that without the protection of their family, their people would really be like ants.
