Chapter 476

If the imperial edict had merely asked them to let Ye Luji go, they would be at the border anyway and in the worst case scenario, they could find another opportunity later. But the Emperor had asked Xie Xuanchen to hand over military powerWasnt this too much?

Even Xu Qilang was extremely infuriated upon hearing this, let alone the people on Xie Xuanchens side? Senior General Xu also let out a long sigh with worry in his tone, I dont know either.

This kind of matter was a sensitive one, especially since Xie Xuanchens identity involved the struggle for imperial power between two generations. The Xu family was just an ordinary military family, so they must be respectful when meeting civil servants. Whats more, when it came to such a sensitive matter as the inheritance of imperial power? General Xu didnt dare to ask any more questions. He suppressed his thoughts and warned his son again, His Highness Prince An said in the letter that Her Highness Princess An may come in a few days. Go home and restrain the bastards from causing a ruckus, lest the Princess comes and see you all fooling around.

Xu Qilang was startled when he heard this, Princess An is coming?

In fact, for Xie Xuanchen, from the moment he heard the messenger asking him to hand over his military power, he regarded this entire order as blasphemy.

Letting Xie Xuanchen let go of his prey was already crossing the line. It was impossible to expect Xie Xuanchen to obediently hand over his military power.

There was a lot of chaos in the Zhending Residence as everyone was busy packing their bags. Xie Xuanchen had ordered his troops to assemble and set out on time early morning tomorrow to head south and provide support to the capital.

The reason why we set off tomorrow instead of immediately was actually because of Mu Mingtang. Xie Xuanchen had to march in a hurry, so it would be inappropriate to take her with him. He was worried about leaving Mu Mingtang alone in the Zhending Residence. After much thought, he finally decided to send Mu Mingtang to Zhongshan City.
