Quick wear: cannon fodder is a bit strong
Chapter 31 The Prime Minister's Early Death
In a short time, General Nan had no idea what was going on in his mind and was drowning in self-blame. Nan Xi quickly explained:
"Grandfather, my granddaughter has indeed been wronged, but it's all her own fault. You can't blame anyone else."
"My granddaughter is simply remorseful and shouldn't have implicated grandfather. To be honest, at this point, the entire Nan family might be implicated by my granddaughter."
General Nan was shocked.
It's not that he's afraid of getting involved or not. Isn't it just to protect his granddaughter that he's holding on with all his strength?
What surprised him was his sensitive intuition that what his granddaughter was about to say might be something big.
"Grandfather, please look at this."
Nan Xi pulled out a letter from her sleeve and handed it to General Nan.
General Nan took it suspiciously. The letter was sealed with wax, but it had clearly been opened. The letter's design made it clear that it was a top-secret communication used only by the Nan family army.
"How...how did you get this kind of letter?"
General Nan Da looked suspicious. It wasn't that he didn't trust his granddaughter, but he knew better than anyone that she had never been involved in military affairs.
"Grandfather, take a look first."
General Nan unfolded the letter, took a quick look at it, and his face changed drastically.
“This…this, this!”
"How ridiculous! Who wrote this? Where did Nannan get it from? Isn't this putting my Nan family and my Nan family army to death?"
General Nan's expression was extremely grim.
This letter was exactly the "evidence" that Zhao Wenxuan had placed in General Nan's study in his previous life. It was later found by the emperor and used to convict the Nan family.
The letter contained a secret collusion between General Nan and the Third Prince of Liang, in which they discussed that Liang would pretend to attack the border this autumn and winter, and then the old general's men would counterattack and win the battle.
The letter stipulated the profit distribution plan, etc.
In the previous life, the emperor determined that General Nan was collaborating with the enemy and committing treason based on this, and thus confiscated his property and destroyed his mansion.
In fact, this letter was written by Zhao Wenxuan imitating General Nan's handwriting.
He himself was a third place winner in the imperial examination, and he often spent time alone in General Nan's study, so it was easy for him to imitate General Nan's handwriting and tone.
He could even easily obtain the private seal that General Nan Da kept in his study.
As for some slight discrepancies, or any doubts...
When this letter was taken out to convict someone in the previous life, General Nan was already dead. Who could prove it?
At this time, General Nan saw the letter in advance and saw the handwriting that was almost indistinguishable from his own. How could he not be surprised?
Nan Xi said: "Grandfather, please be patient. This matter has not happened yet. We still have room to maneuver."
So Nan Xi told (made up) a story to General Nan.
He only said that one day he accidentally overheard the conversation between Zhao Wenxuan and Old Madam Zhao, and learned that the emperor wanted to seize the military power of the Nan family, and asked Zhao Wenxuan to forge this secret letter.
From that day on, I always pay attention to it.
"Zhao Wenxuan brought this letter today, thinking he was going to put it in my grandfather's study. Just now, when the carriage collided, a corner of the letter happened to be exposed, so I hid it."
After hearing this, General Nan's hand holding the letter began to tremble.
In fact, he probably already guessed the truth of the matter.
He has been a soldier for half his life and is not stupid.
The emperor's fear and covetousness of the Nan family's military power had long been a fact. He had long believed that the Nan family's military power would eventually be lost, unless they rebelled. But with no successor to the Nan family and his only son killed by the emperor's schemes, how could he not be disheartened?
But if he just handed over the military power, given the emperor's petty mind, he, a toothless tiger, might not even be able to protect his only granddaughter. That was why he chose to stay in the capital for a long time and turned a blind eye to the emperor's deployment of troops to the Nan Family Army.
However, he did not expect that this matter would involve his granddaughter and affect her marriage for the rest of her life.
Since Zhao Wenxuan was the emperor's lackey, he was afraid that his granddaughter would not have an easy time in the Zhao family for the next two years. If his granddaughter had not accidentally discovered this letter, he could not imagine what would happen to his family next.
"Grandfather, Zhao Wenxuan is really not good to me." Nan Xi complained tirelessly: "He favors his cousin and secretly made her his concubine."
"Now this concubine has given birth to a daughter, and a few days ago she told me that she wanted to make her a co-wife..."
Nan Xi held General Nan's hand and complained while using her wood-based abilities to quietly regulate the old general's body to prevent him from getting too excited.
"What"!?
General Nan's reaction was indeed intense. He stood up suddenly:
"How dare you! I'm going to kill him right now!"
The old general, who had remained calm when he heard that the emperor was going to frame the Nan family, was now furious when he heard that his granddaughter was being bullied.
It can only be said that compared to the emperor's backstab, he was mentally prepared, and his granddaughter being bullied was even more unbearable for him.
Nan Xi quickly grabbed General Nan's sleeve, and seeing that the old man's face turned pale with anger, she quickly increased the supply of her wood-type supernatural power.
If General Nan was so angry that he died because of her complaint, she thought her mission would be over.
So, let’s not talk about the fact that the original owner was sterilized or poisoned.
She's "recovered" anyway.
Only after seeing the old general's complexion gradually recover did Nan Xi continue:
"Grandfather, don't be angry. I'm not the Amon of the past. I have a plan and won't be bullied by them..."
General Nan was still angry.
"I brought so many people with you, are they just there to eat for free?"
Nan Xi quickly reflected on herself: "I don't blame them. I was mistaken in the past. I thought that since I was married, I could just endure the problems and things would eventually pass. I didn't allow them to interfere."
