Cui Zheng looked at the emergency reports flying like snowflakes from all over the palace.
"Ankangshan, you bastard." He cursed.
The officials in the palace were at a loss. This bastard dared to rebel, and he had an unimpeded journey from Fan Yang to the capital!
Where are Daxia's soldiers and horses? Where are the emperor's guards? Why do they seem to have suddenly disappeared? What should we do now? What should we do?
"Has the edict to sue the world been issued?"
"Where is the indictment against Ankangshan and his son?"
The palace was bustling, noisy and chaotic, documents were being flipped around, and Cui Zheng had a headache from the noise.
"Where is Wu Ya'er? Where is Wu Ya'er?" He searched the hall with his eyes.
Since that day when Wu Ya'er wore armor and trampled the Peach Blossom Banquet to pieces, the emperor was so frightened that he stopped going to court. When the emperor didn't go to court, Wu Ya'er didn't appear in the court either. People who couldn't see him didn't know his whereabouts.
If it weren't for the Zhenwu Army running around the city, I would have thought he had run away.
A group of soldiers and horses were galloping on the road outside the capital. The dust was flying and the clouds blocked the sun. They could not see clearly. However, the soldiers and horses on guard outside the capital immediately got out of the way, and the city gate was opened. The group of soldiers and horses galloped in.
The streets were crowded with people fleeing in, dodging the galloping soldiers and horses, causing chaos. Every commotion attracted numerous prying eyes from the door panels, windows and roofs.
"The troops here in the capital were mobilized very quickly." Zhonghou looked away and jumped off the roof. When the big man landed, he only stirred up dust and did not hit a hole. "There was a Tianping army that just passed by."
A man standing on the porch feeding the birds counted with his fingers: "In addition to the Zhaozhou Army of the Wei Dujun who passed over a few days ago, the three prefectures and six guards around the capital have all fallen into the hands of the Zhenwu Army. This must be
Eighty thousand troops and horses, right?"
"This kid has made a lot of money." Zhonghou snorted and rubbed his hands in circles in the yard, "Why doesn't the eldest lady let us do it? Although there are only a dozen of us, with the name of Jiannan Road, we can respond to everything when we go out.
, formed an army on the spot.”
"That's right." The man feeding the birds agreed, "The hundreds of people who were looking for dowries from Zhongqi and the others saved three cities. Now they are guests of Xuzhou. If they continue to mess around, the Zhongwu Army will also treat them as their heads."
"Miss, they are even more powerful. This is turning a stone into an army." Zhonghou shook the newly delivered news from Huainan Road and continued to sigh, "We are the only ones doing nothing."
"You can't say that. We are conveying various news to the lady in the capital." Someone squeezed in deftly from outside the door.
Zhonghou jumped up: "Yes..."
The man feeding the birds laughed: "What is it? That uncle often writes to the young lady. He will tell the young lady all the news in the capital."
Zhonghou was angry: "All his sweet words are useless!"
...
.......
"crow!"
The man in armor jumped down without waiting for the horse to stop, and the armor and weapons clashed with each other. The soldiers nearby rushed up to lead the horse, remove the armor, and disarm the weapons. The man entered the house neatly.
There were many people standing and sitting in the room. When they saw him, they all smiled and called Lao Hu to say hello.
"Is it going well?" Wu Ya'er asked.
"It's so effortless." Lao Hu sat down and picked up the water bowl on the table and drank it all in one gulp, no matter whose bowl it was, "But Ya'er, you guessed it right. The Tianping Army does have lobbyists from Ankang Mountain working hard. I
When I went there, the general of the Tianping Army was said to be a little tempted, but under my mighty momentum, he decisively surrendered and handed over the fine work and chopped it up on the spot."
Lao Hu patted his chest proudly.
The man standing next to him put his shoulder on his shoulder and stroked his face with his fingers: "Where did you, a thin-skinned and tender person, get your strength? It is clearly because of the emperor's edict, the imperial court's seal, and our Zhenwu Army who rescued him earlier.
He was convinced by his reputation."
Lao Hu strangled the man's neck with his thick arms, and the two of them hummed and laughed.
Wu Ya'er watched the two of them laughing and joking to relieve their sleepiness, and then asked: "Where is General Tianping?"
Old Hu got down to business: "He wants to see you."
The hall fell silent. Even though they were rough people, they understood that this meant General Tianping's friendship and surrender.
Wu Ya'er shook his head: "There is no reason for him to see me because of his position. He should go to see His Majesty like other generals. This is the etiquette that should be followed. I treat them with the same etiquette that they treat His Majesty."
Wu Ya'er made great contributions, but due to the emperor's poor mental state, the specific reward has not been finalized, so he went to court as a guard and was still just a captain in the army.
A captain is a junior officer in front of a general.
Lao Hu sneered: "Who cares about this!"
Wu Ya'er said: "It's not time to not care anymore."
Wu Ya'er understood what Lao Hu meant, and Lao Hu seemed to understand what Wu Ya'er meant.
Lao Hu was stunned for a moment, then rubbed his face with a solemn expression: "Yes, let's get to work now."
Everyone else stood up too.
"Now is a good time to accumulate strength." Wu Ya'er said, "The good times won't last long."
Everyone responded and left one after another. Lao Hu walked to the door and thought of something before turning back.
"Crow, Madam, you are so powerful. You led that group of people to save Guangzhou Prefecture," he said.
The three words "young madam" still sounded a bit unfamiliar. Wu Ya'er glanced at the letter on the table.
"Young Madam has already written a letter." Lao Hu shouted, "Young Madam moves very quickly."
Wu Ya'er pursed her lips.
"Young madam, I don't want you to worry about her. You are very considerate." Old Hu touched his chin, "Crow, write her a reply quickly."
Wu Ya'er opened his mouth.
"Although the young lady is very powerful, you still have to express your concern." Lao Hu thought seriously, "This letter must be written well."
He paused in thought, and Wu Ya'er was finally able to speak: "What you said is very good, how about you write it?"
Lao Hu was startled and jumped out of the hall: "I'm going to get busy." He disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Holding a pen is much more troublesome than holding a knife.
Wu Ya'er shook his head and smiled. His eyes returned to the letter on the desk. The letter was delivered faster than the one he sent to Dou County, so it could be seen that he wrote it to him immediately.
As for the contents of the letter, she also wrote everything that the scout mentioned. She also wrote a lot of things that the scout didn't mention, such as what she saw on the road, how the people were displaced and the city was damaged, and she even described how Gwangju Prefecture is green in spring.
How the flowers bloom, how big they are, how many people there are...
The chatter was detailed and cordial, as if they really knew each other...
Wu Ya'er stroked his smooth chin.
He would not be fooled by these superficial gossips. He only saw one sentence from it: Guangzhou Mansion is very big, and Guangzhou Mansion belongs to her.
Now it is certain that this woman is not from Ankang Mountain. She is really a bandit? She is really a big thief with a huge appetite.
First Dou County, then Guangzhou Prefecture, and Huainan Road. She must give it a try. I hope she gets her wish and doesn't die too early.
Wu Yaer's eyes fell on the reply letter, and in return, he replied...
"Jia San!" he shouted.
The guard standing outside the door ran in: "Sir, Commander Jia is on patrol in the capital."
Everyone is very busy now. Wu Ya'er frowned slightly. Who will write the letter? He looked at the letter and reached out to pick up the pen on the table.
