"Uncle, have you thought of a way to win this battle?"
After getting off the tower, Zhuiyue said excitedly.
But it's a pity that Lin Bai shook his head. There is really no better way for the moment. To defend the city, it's just those things.
It’s useless even if a great genius is familiar with Sun Tzu’s Art of War, let alone knows nothing about it.
"Uncle, you..."
"Don't worry, there will always be a way."
The talented man said he was not in a hurry on the surface, but in fact he was panicking inside. However, in order to maintain his powerful persona, he could only hold on, otherwise he would not be able to make all kinds of unreasonable demands in the future, right?
That's right!
For this, we must work harder.
As for dragging Yue Qingchen into the water, there is nothing that can be done. After all, it is the capital of Dayue Kingdom, and Dayue's territory cannot be controlled by Pang Wanli without anyone to protect it.
Just kidding, the prime minister of one country is the territory of the other country, and the great talents only have 500 people. Although they are equipped with Zhuge Liannu, the difference in numbers is too big. If they really use their hands, it will be very difficult.
What's even worse is that currently, it seems that not only Pang Wanli, but also people from both factions are present, so he can only find a backer.
I don’t know if the backer is reliable, but his chest is quite thick, maybe...
Bah bah bah! !
How long has it been since I still think about these things?
On the other side, Yue Qingchen also returned to the mansion, looking worried.
"Come back? What did the boy say?"
Nangong Buhui asked while drinking.
"Master!"
Yue Qingchen hurriedly came up to him, "He said he would let me help deal with Pang Wanli in exchange for helping me win this battle. However, in this case, what else can he do? Otherwise, we should still..."
"Not urgent!"
Nangong Buhui said: "Since he said so, it doesn't matter if we wait. It won't be long before there is a solution in the next two days."
Yue Qingchen said: "Master, why are you so sure that he has a way?"
Nangong Buhui said: "I'm not sure, but I happened to be at the scene that night."
"What night?"
Yue Qingchen looked puzzled, then seemed to understand, "You mean the night he annihilated the Huns?"
"good!"
Nangong Buhui clicked his tongue and said: "Only two thousand people were killed and the Huns army was routed. It was really wonderful. So I really want to know how he would deal with this situation."
"By the way, let's see if he is as good as the princess said and whether he is qualified to inherit something."
Nangong Buhui smiled and said nothing, "You will know later."
…
"It is said that the martial arts of His Highness the Fourth Highness are unparalleled. He is like a god descending to earth. One man and one horse killed nearly a thousand Huns cavalry..."
Kyoto.
The news about the great talent's feat of defeating the Huns has spread widely, and everyone is talking about it in the streets and alleys.
The storyteller on the street, who didn’t know where he heard it from, added some nonsense and attracted countless people to watch and cheer.
Hearing people talking about my uncle, Caiyun's face was full of arrogance. As soon as he entered the house, he shouted, "Miss, Miss, the people are praising my uncle as a god in the sky..."
Compared to her cheerful face, Su Mingyue's face was ashen at this moment.
Because I received some bad news about my husband.
"Where do these messages come from?"
In front of her, Huamei said respectfully: "Miss Hui, this is from the Pavilion Master, coming from Hexi."
Su Mingyue's eyes lit up, "Pavilion Master went to Hexi?"
Huamei said: "It should be that the master of the pavilion reassured the lady and said that the matter may have been exposed. Just in case, you should be prepared."
"I see."
Su Mingyue nodded, "Keep watching, I want to know all the news about my husband as soon as possible."
"Yes!" Huamei retreated.
Su Mingyue thought for a while, and then came to the backyard.
The old lady was basking in the sun in the backyard. When she saw her coming, a smile appeared on her old face, "Looking at you, Xiaobai is in trouble?"
Su Mingyue was startled, "Grandma..."
The old lady smiled and said, "Don't worry, Xiaobai is so smart, nothing will happen to her. Besides, she went to Hexi, so nothing will happen to her."
Su Mingyue said in surprise: "Grandma, do you know?"
The old lady smiled and said, "Are you relieved to let Yuanzhi out of your sight?"
Su Mingyue froze.
The old lady continued: "She didn't tell me anything. She probably blamed me as an old woman. My old woman is indeed sorry for her."
Su Mingyue paused and asked, "Grandma, do you regret it?"
"She went to Hexi. Don't worry about her. Old lady, I..." The old lady didn't finish her words, but the corners of her eyes were already moist.
…
Royal study room.
While reviewing the memorial, Zhu Tianzheng asked, "Is there any latest news from Hexi?"
Zhu Tianzheng nodded, "I'm just impatient. That brat just defeated the Xiongnu army. He should have just arrived in Zhaowu now!"
Eunuch Cao said: "Calculating the time, it should be the time. Don't worry, Your Majesty. The Four Highnesses are both civil and military. They can easily defeat the Xiongnu. They can definitely defeat Loulan and increase the prestige of our country."
Zhu Tianzheng smiled and said, "That would be the best."
After a pause, he asked seemingly casually, "Old man, how long have you been in the palace?"
Eunuch Cao was startled for a moment, then said: "Your Majesty, it's been almost thirty years."
"That's really not a short time."
Zhu Tianzheng said calmly, "Why did you enter the palace?"
Eunuch Cao said: "It's embarrassing to say that the old slave was an orphan before he entered the palace. He was beaten black and blue by human traffickers every day, and then he was forced to beg. Later, with the help of a kind person, he finally escaped from the sea of misery."
"Because I had been severely beaten for a long time and my life was damaged, I entered the palace in order to have food to eat."
Zhu Tianzheng said, "I remember that you seemed to have stayed in Taoliyuan for a while, right?"
A look of surprise appeared on Eunuch Cao's face, and he quickly said: "Your Majesty, the kind man who rescued the old slave was Cao Huawen, the great scholar of Taoliyuan. The old slave was an orphan, nameless and nameless. The name Cao Qiuchang was also given by Cao Daru."
"I see!"
Zhu Tianzheng smiled and said, "You are also a good fortune teller and will meet Cao Daru."
Eunuch Cao said: "Your Majesty is saying that Cao Daru has a kind heart. If it weren't for his old slave, he would have been beaten to death long ago."
Zhu Tianzheng asked again: "I heard that there was a saying about the thirteen springs of peach and plum trees in Taoli Garden. Have you ever heard of it?"
Eunuch Cao lowered his head, astonishment flashed in his eyes, but he asked: "Your Majesty, what is the Thirteenth Spring of Peach and Plum? This old slave has never heard of it."
Zhu Tianzheng chuckled and said, "It's okay if you haven't heard of it! It is said to be left behind by the previous dynasty. The original thirteen orphans of Taoli Garden were collectively called the Thirteenth Spring of Taoli. Later I heard that it was still passed down, but I don't know whether it is true or not."
"It's all about the past, so don't mention it."
Zhu Tianzheng smiled and said, "You can go down too! You don't need to wait here anymore."
"yes!"
Eunuch Cao slowly stepped back, but his face was a little pale.
Zhu Tianzheng slowly raised his head, looked at his back, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
