In the evening, Miao Liu and his son went to a house outside the Imperial City. In order to not attract attention, they had always separated. Today, Miao Fu had entered alone.

Just as Miao Fu entered, the advisor Zhang Shu lowered his voice and said, "The principal superior has sent someone."

Miao Fu anxiously went to the secret room to meet the woman who was still wearing the veil. They all called her the "female envoy".

The lady then asked in a haughty tone, "What's the situation today?"

"Please report to principal superior. Since there was nothing happening today, their families had arranged everything according to plan to recruit all the generals, calling them to return to the imperial court and stripping them of the authority of their troops. "In addition, Yue Pengju's wife entered the palace and took the initiative to ask his husband to hand over the military power …"

The female envoy frowned and thought for a while: "Where is Hua Rong now?"

"She went to persuade Yue Pengju and left her son as a hostage in the palace. She probably wouldn't dare to have second thoughts …"

The woman did not say anything for a while, and then she said, "You can leave now. "In the future, you will surely be part of the top Yuan Xun practitioners."

"Thank you, principal superior."

The moment Miao Fu left, the secret room closed and the female envoy pulled out a handkerchief. It was Wang Junhua, and she immediately said: "Young Master, what do you think?"

The white-robed, elegant young master sat on the large armchair, straightening his body: "Miao Fu is so confused."

"Hua Rong has already left his son, does young master still have anything to worry about?"

He was furious, "Wen Long is the son of Lu Deng, even if Yue Pengju causes trouble, how can Miao Liu and the others threaten him in the slightest?"

Wang Junhua was anxious, she hated Hua Rong to the bones and immediately said: "Miao Liu and the other two were originally unaware, so you can't blame them. Since that's the case, why not immediately stop Hua Rong? "

He shook his head, lost in thought. Yue Pengju only had a thousand soldiers and horses with him when he entered the capital. The thing he had to guard against the most was Han Zhongliang, Liu Guang and Zhang Jun's huge army. But, what exactly was Hua Rong planning to do at this most dangerous time? In order to pacify Miao Liu, Lu Wenlong had even stayed in the palace.

Wang Junhua wanted to use this chance to get rid of Hua Rong. Regardless of whether she was dangerous or not, he could not let her go, and anxiously said: "Hua Rong is truly ridiculous, for Zhao Deji, he might not even care about his son's life. Such a wicked woman was truly rare in this world. Young Master, you must not be soft-hearted. A moment of being soft-hearted would cause Hua Rong to ruin the big matter. It would be better to kill wrongly than to let it go.

He was furious at Hua Rong's actions. If it was her own son, how could she do such a thing? No matter how dangerous she was, she had to be careful. He turned to the guards by his side, "Immediately order the guards to detain Hua Rong. If Yue Pengju is to really hand over the military power and withdraw from the imperial government, then let her husband and wife go … "

Wang Junhua immediately asked: "What will happen if Yue Pengju does not hand over the military authority?"

He frowned and gestured.

Wang Junhua did not dare to pursue the matter any further. He knew that the "Young Master" did not like others when it came to anything, especially when this subordinate was overstepping her boundaries. She was dead set on her 'Young Master' and had never dared to disobey him. Seeing this, she immediately went silent, but secretly rejoiced in her heart, as long as Hua Rong was in her hands, there would always be a way to torture her. She secretly thought in her heart: "Hua Rong, Hua Rong, this time, this old lady will properly vent her dark energy, let's see how long you can continue being so arrogant for …"

When his wife left, Yue Pengju immediately began to deploy his troops. In addition to the thousand men he brought into the capital, he also contacted the people that the old General Zong Ze had sent here previously. With Zong Ze's death, a group of people was broken up and merged by Du Chong. Du Chong was ungrateful and ungrateful, and also avoided Zong Ze, so naturally, his trusted aides were greatly weakened. After a few battles, that group of people were all suicidal vanguards and cannon fodder. After a battle where there were too many enemies and too many people, Du Chong used the excuse of being defeated and heavily punished all the soldiers, deducting their pay. Some of the people couldn't accept this, so they took advantage of the chaos to flee.

This time, although Yue Pengju had only contacted 500 veterans, they had all followed him to participate in the battle to defeat Zong Han. When the two armies merged, Yue Pengju only brought the one thousand five hundred odd men to stand guard along the river.

During the day, he was busy and distracted until late at night. Originally, he was exhausted and wanted to sleep, but Yue Pengju could not rest peacefully. When his wife and son entered the palace, he didn't know how the situation would turn out, especially when it came to his wife, who was in grave danger. He had been with his wife for more than a year. He had slept with her every night, and now that he stretched out his hand, his arms were empty. He could not sleep.

His eyes were as red as a rabbit's, he could no longer stay in this place, but, how could he, who had formed his own army, dare to leave alone?

He was counting the days. His wife had left for five days, yet there was no news at all. He was so anxious that blood was about to bubble at his mouth.

After he had summoned the council of war, he was walking outside when a guard reported, "Lord Yue, a guest has come to visit."

"Please."

He looked over and saw a Confucian Scholar dressed in robes. His appearance was that of a scholar's. He was surprised for a moment, then asked: "Ma Su, is that you?"

Ma Su nodded: "Yes, I am."

The two of them sat down. Without waiting for Yue Pengju to ask, Ma Su spoke first: "This time, I am not following the King's orders, but acting on my own."

"What does Mr. Ma want?"

Ma Su's expression became slightly gloomy: "Lord Yue does not know of my background. My ancestor was the Han Er of the Liaoning, his grandfather had accumulated a high rank because of his studies and family wealth. But because of some unforeseen event, families lost and people lost, and they were accidentally rescued by the King Qin in exile.

Yue Pengju had always seen that he was abnormal, but even though he was by King Qin's side, he was definitely not ordinary. He nodded and continued to listen to him quietly.

"This time, I followed the King to the Shang Jing to steal some Lingzhi. After returning, I stayed in the capital. I have heard that there are eight thousand Western Liao troops in Miao Fu's army, among them is my old friend Zhang Wei, he was originally called Yelu, but he only got his Han name after the fall of Song Dynasty, and he is also considered to be one of Miao Fu's advisors. I can go and find out for her. "

Yue Pengju was overjoyed. He was already worried that something would happen to his wife, so he did not receive any news. Now that Ma Su had volunteered to go, he was really overjoyed. However, if you want to go, you need a legitimate identity. "

"I have to trouble Lord Yue to help me find a solution."

"I will be going to Zhenjiang tomorrow to request for a Lu Dian. I don't mind bringing you along to make a recommendation on the spot."

"Thank you, Lord Yue, for fulfilling my wish."

Yue Pengju replied respectfully: "Mister Ma, there's no need to be so polite. This trip is dangerous, and we have to take care of ourselves." He knew that Ma Su had more or less received instructions from the King Qin. If it wasn't for his own wife, he might not have taken the risk, but since Ma Su said that he had volunteered to go, he didn't expose it.

Ma Su also returned the gesture with his hands folded in front: "I have long heard of Lord Yue's courtesy and respect for the Confucian Scholars, now that I have met you, you truly live up to your name." During the great battle at the Yanjing Palace, he had been saved by Yue Pengju with his life on the line. But after seeing it today, before he could even say anything, Yue Pengju called him Mister and admired himself for what he had done. Even if it wasn't for the King's orders, was still willing to serve him.

On this day, the Cardinal Lv Yihao was at Zhenjiang, gathering Han Zhongliang, Zhang Jun and the others to discuss matters. He was a civil servant, and maintained his sense of superiority towards the military. When the generals bowed to him, he merely waved his hand and sat down in the middle.

He cleared his throat and was about to speak when he saw Xin Yong Sect stumbling in, without even having the time to bow before them. He shouted, "This is bad, Miao Fu, Liu Zhengyan has changed into a soldier …"

Everyone was shocked. Xin Yong Sect reported the news of Wang Yuan's death while gasping for breath. Zhang Jun was Wang Yuan's godson, so Han Zhongliang had always been a good man. He had always received trust and consideration from Wang Yuan, and when the two of them heard the news of Wang Yuan's death, they both cried loudly.

Lv Yihao maintained his composure, at the same time, the guard delivered the mail container to him. It was the order of the empress dowager, one of the orders was to dismiss the officials of the imperial court, and the promotion to Zhang Jun and the others. The order was accompanied by a briefing on Wang Yuan's death.

When Lv Yihao saw this, he felt that it was no small matter, but he still maintained his presence of authority and calmness, and immediately looked at Zhang Jun, "You are the closest to the capital, what countermeasures do you have against Miao Liu Er Fierce?"

Zhang Jun revealed a troubled expression, "The lower official only has eight thousand troops, while the second bandit has over thirty thousand. I'm afraid they are no match for us. And, the Second Vicious Beast has eight thousand troops, so it's quite possible for them to fight. " Miao Fu had 8,000 troops under his tent, which meant that they were the descendents of the Liaoists, and had strong fighting capabilities.

Lv Yihao looked at Han Zhongliang again. Han Zhongliang had met with Golden Army and was defeated once, but this time, there were only two thousand people under his banner.

Lv Yihao pondered for a moment: "Right now, in the army on the river, Liu Guang's power is the strongest, if he were to send troops together, what do you think the chances of victory would be?"

Han Zhongliang and Zhang Jun were both Wang Yuan's trusted aides, and their relationship was not ordinary at all. Furthermore, the two of them had formed a family together. However, Liu Guang and Wang Yuan were from two factions, and were opposing each other. In this way, it would be difficult for them to work together.

Lv Yihao saw that the matter was not simple, although he was anxious, he remained calm and said: "The two of you can go and prepare your defenses."

After the two of them left, that night, Lv Yihao tossed and turned. It was almost daybreak, and he was just about to call for a response when he heard the sound of a galloping horse. It was the voice of the guard: "Master Lü, Yue Pengju has come to report …"

Lv Yihao was overjoyed, and immediately said: "Please come in."

It was the first time in his life that the Prime Minister had called for a military general in his bedroom.

Lv Yihao did not wait for Yue Pengju to bow and immediately said: "When Yue Xuan returned to the capital, our family had just happened to be out and would not be able to see each other. These days, when the country is in trouble, it must be a part of the civil and military forces, and it must be a major event for all. "

Yue Pengju saw that both of his eyes were bloodshot and felt extremely gratified in his heart. He knew that he must have been working on the matters of the Wing Wang. After the two of them greeted each other, they immediately reported to Zhang Jun and Han Zhongliang.

Lv Yihao excitedly pulled three people along. "The three of you are here, why should you worry about such a big matter?"

This was the first time the two of them had met Yue Pengju, and the two of them were ten or twenty years older than him. Seeing this famous general who was so famous in the rumors, they were both shocked, but Zhang Jun did not think so, but Han Zhongliang laughed heartily instead: "Yesterday, my family said that Zhang Qi and I were hard to clap, but today Yue Wu has joined, so we will definitely achieve great things."

Han Zhongliang was ranked fifth among them. He called Zhang Jun and Yue Pengju by ranks, indicating their intimacy.

Yue Pengju replied respectfully to the two senior generals.

Zhang Jun immediately said, "We are willing to split the 2,000 soldiers and horses with Han Wu."

Although he was on good terms with Han Zhongliang, at this moment, he was unwilling to rashly advance, so he was willing to give two thousand soldiers to Han Zhongliang to be the vanguard.

But since Yue Pengju's army was in Xiangyang, and he had collected less than two thousand horses, Zhang Jun was naturally unwilling to split the troops with him. Yue Pengju did not request for him to join them, and said: "Luckily I have received support from the two Grand Commandant s, if that is the case, Yue Pengju can become the vanguard."

When the two of them heard that he had taken the initiative to be the vanguard, they were overjoyed. They immediately said, "We will. This way, we will have to trouble Yue Wu."

Just as they were talking, one of the Xu officials reported, "A Gold has been delivered to the imperial script."

Everyone immediately saluted, only to see the high ranking Gold walking in. The "gold medal" in Song Dynasty was not a misunderstanding. Instead, it was a vermilion lacquer plate with the words "Imperial script, do not enter the bed" written in golden characters. The emergency package that was passed to them was usually a bamboo tube or a leather bag to prevent damage. In order to ensure the order of the documents, the Gold numbers were usually arranged according to the "Thousand Character Classic". This was because there were no duplicate words in the "Thousand Character Classic".
