Zuo Liangyu accompanied Zhang Dabiao into the big tent with a smile on his face, and respectfully invited him to the top. Then he bowed his hands to the ground and waited for the imperial edict to be read out.
"Uncle Ning Nan, although you are wearing soft armor, you still have armor on you. When the imperial edict is read at the end, you can just kneel down on one knee!"
At this time, Zhang Dabiao's voice sounded.
When Zuo Liangyu heard this, a flash of anger flashed across his face, and he looked at Zhang Dabiao with some annoyance.
When Zhang Dabiao saw his gaze, he pretended not to understand and smiled: "General, I know that Ning Nanbo attaches great importance to etiquette, but after all, you are wearing armor, and His Majesty also specifically instructed you, so you don't need to be too formal."
After that, he opened the imperial edict without reading it.
Seeing this, Zuo Liangyu became even more angry.
You must know that in the past two years, whenever there is an imperial edict, he has left it to his staff to deal with it, and rarely accepts the edict personally.
When he couldn't evade it, he would pretend to be in armor, but the eunuchs never dared to criticize him harshly.
Unexpectedly, Zhang Dabiao asked him to kneel down today, and the anger in his heart immediately surged up uncontrollably.
However, he was also a man with a big heart. Although he was angry, he did not show it. He just looked at Zhang Dabiao coldly.
"Uncle Ning Nan, can the general read out the imperial edict?"
Zhang Dabiao asked with a smile when he saw Zuo Liangyu still not kneeling down.
Zuo Liangyu saw that he looked like a villain and was thinking about how to kill Zhang Dabiao's majesty when he heard Jin Shenghuan shout loudly: "Uncle Ning Nan has been suffering from leg disease recently. It is already difficult to stand. How can I kneel down?" Earth, you want to..."
"You are so outrageous. The imperial edict is as if your Majesty is personally present. How can you be allowed to be so arrogant!"
"Come here, my envoy, quickly drag this ignorant thing out and beat him with thirty army sticks!"
After Zhang Dabiao interrupted Jin Shenghuan's words loudly, he shouted outside the tent.
Although Zhang Dabiao's voice was loud, not a single soldier came in.
Seeing this, Zhang Dabiao looked at Zuo Liangyu and sneered: "Uncle Ning Nan, could it be that your military laws here are different from those elsewhere?"
Zuo Liangyu has developed a domineering temperament over the years. Although Zhang Dabiao was arrogant when he saw him before, he was still polite to him.
In addition, he did not want to break face at this moment, arouse Chongzhen's suspicion, and affect important events, so he dealt with it with a smile.
Now seeing Zhang Dabiao not knowing how to advance or retreat, pressing forward step by step, his blood surged instantly, and his face was like a red date.
He was about to scold Zhang Dabiao when he heard Huang Liang's voice: "Angel, General Jin was also in a hurry and lost his etiquette. Please forgive him once."
While Huang Liang begged Zhang Dabiao, he secretly winked at Zuo Liangyu, telling him not to act on his own initiative.
Zuo Liangyu was startled when he saw Huang Liang's rare initiative. Then he remembered what he had just said about Tai Sui and understood immediately.
So he suppressed his anger and smiled forcefully at Zhang Dabiao: "Don't blame the angels, these dogs are just so vulgar and don't understand the rules."
"Originally, there is nothing wrong with beating him, but the war is about to begin, and he is the vanguard this time. If we punish him, it will be detrimental to the north, so please forgive me!"
After he finished speaking, without waiting for Zhang Dabiao's reply, he turned to Jin Shenghuan and shouted: "You piece of shit, why don't you get out of here!"
Jin Shenghuan was stunned when he heard this, and then when he saw Zuo Liangyu gesturing for him to go out, he cupped his hands with an annoyed look and quickly walked out of the tent.
Zhang Dabiao originally wanted to make use of the topic, but because Jin Shenghuan had already left, he had to give up.
However, he still complained to Zuo Liangyu dissatisfiedly: "Uncle Ning Nan, it's not that the general said about you, you are indeed too weak!"
"If it wasn't for your sake, I... I would have to fix him well today!"
Zuo Liangyu was suppressing his anger and Zhang Dabiao, but now seeing that he dared to underestimate her, the anger in his heart surged up again.
Huang Liang on the side saw this, bumped him lightly with his elbow, and said with a smile: "Angel, don't let such a trivial matter affect your mood. Look, it's time to read out the imperial edict!"
After hearing this, Zhang Dabiao reacted, looked at Zuo Liangyu and said, "Uncle Ning Nan, prepare to accept the order!"
Although Zuo Liangyu was unwilling in his heart, seeing Huang Liang keep winking at him and thinking about Tai Sui, he hesitated for a while, then knelt down unwillingly and said: "My lord, Zuo Liangyu accepts the order!"
Seeing this, a look of disappointment flashed across Zhang Dabiao's face. He then unfolded the imperial edict and read loudly: "Emperor Fengtian Chengyun, edict: Ning Nanbo Zuo Liangyu..."
When Zuo Liangyu heard the word "Edict", he couldn't help but be shocked.
He originally thought that Chongzhen would be kind to appease him, and then let him besiege Shanxi. Unexpectedly, he first criticized him for being slow in sending troops, which was disadvantageous to King Qin, and then accused him of improper planning, which almost caused Wuchang to fall.
When Zuo Liangyu heard these words, he was furious. He was about to explode, but he heard Chongzhen praising him for his loyalty to the emperor, patriotism, loyalty and bravery, and awarded him the title of General Zhaowu.
Finally, he said that Huang Degong was forced by thieves, and ordered him to immediately lead his army to Hengshui to relieve Huang Degong's danger.
After Zuo Liangyu heard the imperial edict, he was stunned for a moment.
At this time, Zhang Dabiao closed the imperial edict, handed it to Zuo Liangyu and said: "Uncle Ning Nan, accept the edict!"
After hearing this, Zuo Liangyu looked up at Zhang Dabiao, and saw that the other man's eyes were full of jest, suspecting that his plan had been leaked, and his originally angry heart immediately calmed down.
He raised his hands above his head respectfully and said loudly: "Your Majesty..."
"You little thief, I think you are tired of living. How dare you pretend to be an angel and preach the imperial edict in an attempt to stop Ning Nanbo from going north to King Qin!" Suddenly, Hao Xiaozhong's voice came from outside the tent, and then he saw him leading Forty or fifty soldiers in armor broke into the tent and surrounded Zhang Dabiao and Zuo Liangyu.
Zhang Dabiao glanced at Hao Xiaozhong and others, looked at Zuo Liangyu as if no one else was around, and sneered: "Uncle Ning Nan, I wonder what this means?"
When Zuo Liangyu saw this, he was also shocked.
"You thief and bandit, stop acting, in front of your Grandpa Hao..."
"ah!"
Before Hao Xiaozhong finished speaking, he was kicked away by Zhang Dabiao and let out a scream.
Immediately afterwards, the other five Jinyi guards also drew their long swords, seemingly protecting Zhang Dabiao on both sides, but in fact they were protecting the thin man in the middle.
"Commander, please stop Hao Zhongzhong quickly, otherwise there will be big trouble!"
Huang Liang on the side saw this and said to Zuo Liangyu anxiously.
Hearing this, Zuo Liangyu glanced at him, with a trace of hesitation flashing across his face.
Seeing that he was hesitant, Huang Liang persuaded him again: "Commander, please stop hesitating. If Hao Xuanzhong is injured, then... you will bear the infamy for eternity!"
At this moment, Hao Xiaozhong had climbed up from the ground. After spitting out a bloody front tooth, he shouted angrily: "Brothers! Give it to me..."
"Hao Xuanzhong, what are you doing, why don't you step down from me?"
Zuo Liangyu stood up, walked towards Hao Xiaozhong and shouted angrily.
Hao Xiaozhong was stunned when he heard this, and then shouted loudly: "Commander, they are rebels. After the general captures them, I will ask you to punish them!"
Zuo Liangyu was shocked when he saw that Hao Xiaozhong dared to disobey his order.
At this time, Hao Xiaozhong's voice sounded again: "Brothers, do it!"
Upon hearing this, all the soldiers rushed towards Zhang Dabiao with their swords, and the tent was immediately in chaos.
Seeing this, Zuo Liangyu hurriedly pulled Huang Liang and ran towards the outside of the tent. Unexpectedly, there were people guarding outside the tent, and they were forced back.
