Chapter 229 - The High Priestess Is Very Rich
When Yin Xu woke up, he was immediately told about the terrifying news. He almost packed his luggage and hid in the Danxia Mountain.
“What's the benefit of letting me fight the Duke of Qin and the Second Prince?” he asked the steward of the inner court, who had just finished his decree.
It was a chubby middle-aged eunuch. His eyes looked like Maitreya Buddha's when he smiled, and he was very popular. The emperor had chosen him because he liked him.
However, at this moment, the fat eunuch was on the verge of breaking into laughter. “Commander Huo asked ...” It is my duty to serve the nation according to the emperor's decree. How can I obtain any benefits? “
“Who would do something that has no benefits?”
“Then... “You want to defy the decree?” The fat eunuch looked at Teng Yu, and thought to himself: “Your Highness, look, you're already like this, why don't you do anything about it?”
Yin Xu spread out his hands, indicating that he was on the beam, and could not help himself, “Go then, but you have to do as I say on the way, help me pass these words onto them.”
This was the fat eunuch's first time seeing someone who dared to bargain with the emperor. No, this wasn't right, the Third Prince seemed to even dare to disobey the imperial edict.
“This servant will definitely carry out your words.” With that, the fat eunuch took his leave. The two lords in the mansion were not people he could afford to offend.
His Majesty even praised him when he heard that the Third Prince had made him suffer a fate worse than death. Sigh, this day's food was not tasty.
Yin Xu read the imperial edict twice, then casually threw it to the side, “I just realized that the emperor hates me too.”
Teng Yu ordered the people to put away the imperial edict, sat by his side and hugged the people into his embrace, “Hate is useless, this is a very simple principle.”
“You know your own limits. What do you think about this matter?” As the one who was implicated, Yin Xu expressed that Teng Yu would bear all responsibility for this matter.
“Don't worry, I will make Han Qing bring his men to go with you. He has been familiar with the art of military affairs since a young age, although he does not have any experience in leading soldiers to war, he is definitely not weaker than you.”
“What do you mean?” Yin Xu raged, he pinched his cheek and pulled him out, “Third His Highness The Prince, is this young master really a scum in your eyes?”
“I don't dare, I don't dare. You are a treasure in my heart!” Teng Yu immediately kissed her and said sincerely: “This ruler has a director and an inch is a bit short. He is also like that, we just have to take advantage of him.” Don't deny it.
Anyway, Teng Yu had already decided that Yin Xu was definitely not qualified to be a general.
A proper general should at least be like the Huo Family's young master, with a body of lofty bones, a loyal heart, and the awareness of sacrificing his life for justice.
Do these Yin Xu s exist? Certainly not.
Yin Xu stared at him without speaking, he prodded his chest and said: “This young master just came back and is leaving, there are too many generals in the imperial court, how did the emperor fall for me?”
“Isn't it because you can?” Teng Yu flattered his, but he immediately looked at Yin Xu and explained seriously, “Firstly, you are from the Huo Family, and no one is unconvinced when you bring your troops out. Secondly, if something were to happen to you in the southwest, the Huo Family will definitely not let off the Duke of Qin and the second brother. “Cough.”
Teng Yu rubbed his nose, but did not tell him the third point.
But the third point was also the best guess. If Yin Xu died in battle, Teng Yu would definitely be extremely hurt, and a man who had lost his loved one would probably not be able to recover from his defeat. Furthermore, if Yin Xu died, Teng Yu would also lose all possibility of cooperating with Huo Family.
When Yin Xu thought about it again, he realized that the people in the palace all wished for him to die.
But thinking back to when he died, Yin Xu was not affected by this at all.
Yin Xu gave a rough look before throwing it to the side, “Don't take the Duke of Qin for a fool. Since he can silently turn his Kun City into his territory, then he must be well-prepared in the city.
“Then, what do you mean ...?”
Yin Xu yawned and waved his hand, “It's a long journey and everyone is tired. First, don't give everyone so much pressure, rest well for the day, eat, drink and recuperate properly.”
“But this subordinate did not think that the Duke of Qin would give us time to rest. You said it yourself, we're only this number. The other side can definitely take the initiative to attack.”
“Isn't there still no news that they're coming to besiege us?” Seeing that he didn't agree, Yin Xu added, “From the Kun City to here, it would take at least an entire day.”
“Then what is your plan?” It was Han Qing's first time encountering a general like Yin Xu, and he was already on the enemy's territory, neither fast nor slow.
Yin Xu sat up from the bed, wrapped in a blanket and asked: “Do you think ten thousand of us will be their match?”
“Of course not, that's why Your Highness said to contact the troops of the Second Prince as soon as possible. Among those fifty thousand people, there must be some loyal people.”
“Then do you think we have time to slowly identify those who have truly pledged their allegiance and those who have falsely submitted?”
“This... This subordinate has investigated beforehand, and there are at least three deputy Generals who would not sincerely join the Second Prince as partners, and through them, they would be able to rebel against a portion of their soldiers. “
“Which three?” Give me the list. ” Yin Xu reached out his hand from under the bed, “You don't need to worry about the other matters for now.”
“Please forgive this subordinate for not being able to comply.” Han Qing had followed orders to protect Yin Xu and also followed orders to assist him in the war. Since he was here, how could he not do anything?
Yin Xu was angered to death by his stubborn brain, “You sure are loyal to Teng Yu!”
“I'll be direct with it, the best way is to capture the thief and the king first. Our goal is only the Duke of Qin and the Second Prince, what does it matter if the others live or die?”
Han Qing secretly sighed, “Before we came, Your Highness specifically warned me not to let you personally get into danger!” He thought, Master must have guessed that the Seventh Young Master would do this.
“I knew it.” Yin Xu muttered, he snapped his fingers and two black figures suddenly appeared in his tent.
Han Qing's eyes changed, he was just about to attack when he fell to the ground.
“Take him down there and watch him eat. Don't let him communicate with the outside world, especially the group of Dark Guard s.”
The two black figures walked forward, revealing two young faces. They were precisely the left Right Protectorate from the Evil Sect.
Han Qing's eyes turned, he did not know when these two had snuck in, they were too derelict in their duties!
However, the Seventh Young Master had clearly prepared this beforehand, otherwise he would not have drugged this tent beforehand.
Zuo Shaotang took the opportunity to rub Han Qing's face, and teased: “If it weren't for this protector's concern, guard Han would definitely be the best partner.”
Xiao Feng pulled Zuo Shaotang away, carried Han Qing who was on the ground, and walked out of the tent.
Zuo Shaotang laughed happily: “So this is what it means to be jealous, you really care about me.”
Yin Xu looked at him with disdain, “I really don't know which eye of Xiao Feng would fall for you!”
Zuo Shaotang turned his head and winked at him, gritting his teeth while spitting out four words, “Same here!”
