Chapter 92 The Death of Marquis of Fengcheng

Just as Xue Jiuzhen finished speaking, Fengcheng Hou snorted, and Fengcheng Hou slowly opened his eyes.

Fengcheng Hou's turbid eyes turned slightly, and it took a while for a while to slowly see the divine light. When he saw Li Ru, he also saw the slap marks on Li Ru's face and said, "My son, you are----"

Li Ru endured the pain and said, "Dad, my child is unfilial. I just found out that you are not sick, but poisoned. The child doesn't know how to deal with it, so I ask my father to give me some advice."

If possible, Li Ru did not want to tell Fengcheng Hou that the Marquis of Fengcheng Hou would think that he had died of illness. Perhaps it would be a little better for Fengcheng Hou. After all, the nobles have been together for many years. Even if there are conflicts between the nobles, there are few people who have to kill themselves. Even if they are to kill, they are mostly through court fighting, rather than poisoning.

But Li Ru knew one thing very well, that is, the situation after the death of Fengcheng Hou.

If the Marquis of Fengcheng died of illness, Li Ru still has the confidence to deal with the Marquis of Fengcheng well, but if the Marquis of Fengcheng was poisoned by someone else, then Li Ru would have to think about some questions. Who is the one who started? Since he has made a mortal enemy, will he kill Chao and eliminate the root cause? The opponent has used the method of poisoning, and there is nothing else he dare not do.

How to deal with this situation then.

Li Ru was unsure, and he knew his father, Fengcheng Hou, a hero for his life, and decided not to die in a mess. He would die in a clear way.

Fengcheng Hou sighed and said, "Today is my death. My son, Zhou Xiannie, I thought everyone would be willing to think about the court. Each family has a million yuan in funds, so how can I pay attention to the little profit of the Beijing camp? Moreover, the Beijing camp is strong, so we nobles can only speak with their backs in the court. But I never expected that my whole body would be exchanged for this."

"I don't know who poisoned me, but one thing is clear. I checked the old man and the two groups of people in the founding and Jingnan. The new nobles did not have this method. However, there is one thing you must continue, that is Jingying."

"Remember it? Jingying."

"They treated me like this, but they didn't want me to reform the Jingying again. I will leave this matter to you. We must continue, not only for the court, but also for my family. Since they have used this method, they don't mind uprooting the Fengcheng Marquis Mansion in the future. This time, either you die or I die, I will not be able to be merciless. Otherwise, it will be my fate."

Before this, the Marquis of Fengcheng had always wanted to use a relatively peaceful method to promote the transformation of the Beijing camp. He did not want to really stand opposite to other nobles, because the Marquis of Fengcheng was a member of the nobles. It was because of this that he knew how powerful the nobles were.

But now he ended up like this, which completely changed his mind.

Li Ru cried and said, "Yes."

Fengcheng Hou said, "My son holds a pen, I will tell the confession."

So, the legacy of the Marquis of Fengcheng and written by Li Ru, and the grinding of Zhou Mengchen was written by Zhou Mengchen. The Marquis of Fengcheng described his lifelong contributions, wanting his son to inherit his title, and not being filial, he directly took over his position to take charge of the Beijing camp.

After saying these things, the last little strength of the Marquis of Fengcheng disappeared. The old minister who had been in the court for a lifetime, and the Marquis of Fengcheng, who is now the first among the nobles, finally left the world.

Zhou Mengchen sighed and could only send someone away first. He went home and told his wife that he might not be able to go back today.

Li Ru was deeply hit and had no intention of managing the affairs. Zhou Mengchen could only help him greet him. Of course, there were people in Fengcheng Hou Mansion who were in charge. As long as there were people in charge of the affairs, things would be easy to push.

I've been busy late at night.

Li Ru was wearing a filial piety dress and knelt in front of the coffin, as he was as blank as a wooden carving. Zhou Mengchen could only kneel beside him and said, "You are now the backbone of the Marquis of Fengcheng Palace. You still want to avenge the old Marquis's revenge."

"Avenge, how should I take revenge?" Li Ru said: "I have sent someone to investigate today. A total of thirteen people have been killed, but it has not been found out. Who was poisoned and what poison was used. I don't know who the enemy is, how should I take revenge?"

Zhou Mengchen said: "Didn't the old marquis say that what others don't want us to do? What do we have to do?"

Li Ru's voice was trembling and she said, "Can I succeed?"

Zhou Mengchen heard Li Ru’s knot.

Overall, Li Ru is a relatively mediocre person. He is relatively mediocre in terms of ability, character, or other aspects. His only advantage is that he is self-aware and knows what he is not good at, so that the people below can do it.

The Marquis of Fengcheng is Li Ru's idol and monument, and the children worship their father. That is also a natural thing.

But he didn't want the Marquis of Lianfengcheng to fall into this. How could Li Ru have the confidence to feel that he could deal with it?

Zhou Mengchen said: "Some things are never about success or not. They have to be done. You are also a person who has seen life and death on the battlefield. Are you so afraid of death?"

Li Ru stammered his neck and said, "Who said that, I'm not afraid."

Zhou Mengchen said: "The father's revenge is unfair. You said you are not afraid of death. Then what are you afraid of?"

Li Ru was stunned and said to himself: "What are you afraid of?"

"And you are definitely not fighting alone," Zhou Mengchen said: "There are me, some brothers in Datong, and the people from your Fengcheng Hou family. What will happen in the end? Only after fighting will you know."

Li Ru's voice was hoarse, as if she was crying too much. She raised her head and looked at her father's tablet and said, "I understand. Either you die or I die."

Zhou Mengchen was in a complicated mood at this moment.

The reform of the military system has always been in Zhou Mengchen's plan. However, the resistance was very great. Fengcheng Hou had been following Zhou Mengchen and did not want Zhou Mengchen to participate in the Beijing camp. It is estimated that the more he felt that Zhou Mengchen's plan was too radical. Fengcheng Hou had been grasping the position and did not want to do anything too big.

Want to compromise with each other and reach a unified opinion within the nobles.

Obviously, at this point, Fengcheng Hou seemed too naive.

Now that Fengcheng Hou is dead, the reform of the Beijing Camp is no longer a state affairs, but a family matter for Li Ru. He will support him without hesitation. In addition, Li Ru has always been a subordinate of Zhou Mengchen and is used to obeying Zhou Mengchen's orders.

In the future, Zhou Mengchen will be able to control the Fengcheng Hou family and even some nobles through Li Ru.

It seemed that the situation was very good for Zhou Mengchen. However, when Zhou Mengchen thought of Fengcheng Marquis, a feeling of sadness surged in his heart. After all, Fengcheng Marquis supported Zhou Mengchen for a long time. Now this elder is no longer there.

Many times, Zhou Mengchen has to rely on himself.

Zhou Mengchen accompanied Li Ru all night, and early the next morning, someone came. The first group of people came were eunuchs in the palace, who posthumously awarded the title of Marquis of Fengcheng as the Prince of Heshuo, and was granted the title of Duke of Fengguo, and ordered Li Ru to inherit Duke of Fengguo and take charge of the Beijing camp.

In other words, the emperor was sure of the things in the relic of the Marquis of Fengcheng, and gave Fengcheng a great honor to the posthumous death. Originally, Fengcheng Hou was enough to posthumously award the title of Duke of the Kingdom, and the Duke of the Kingdom was able to posthumously award the title of Duke of the Kingdom.

The Duke of Fengguo, who was granted by Jiajing to the Marquis of Fengcheng, was not a posthumous gift, but a real gift, and was directly allowed to be inherited by Li Ru. This also rewarded Li Ru many of his military achievements in Datong.

From then on, the Fengcheng Hou family became the Fengguo Duke family. The Fengcheng Hou family can be said to have taken an important step in selling.

But in this way, the funeral of Fengcheng Marquis will have great changes. The funeral of a duke is completely different from the funeral of a marquis. Not to mention, Fengcheng Marquis' Mansion has been in trouble for the matter here.

After the eunuch proclaimed the eunuch, he walked over to Zhou Mengchen and said, "Master Zhou, are you here? Your Majesty will give you a special order. I want to see you, hurry up and enter the palace."

Zhou Mengchen thought to himself: "Is it because His Majesty is still thinking about the money in the bank?" Although he thought so, he did not dare to delay at all. After giving an explanation, he had already followed the little eunuch into the palace.
