Zhang Guangpu and the nineteen lieutenant colonels, after struggling in every possible way, finally obeyed the order and went. They didn't know what the prince's purpose was, but they understood that the prince had his own purpose.
Hongshu watched the group of people leave, frowning slightly, seriousness written all over her beautiful face, and bowed: "I don't understand!"
"oh?"
Xin Zhuo continued to play with the small sword and said with a smile: "What don't you understand?"
Hongshu said: "The prince must have asked them to spread the plague. There is no need to say how loyal these people are. Even the three Zhang Guangpu are very utilitarian and can be trained. Why doesn't the prince tell them directly? Isn't it possible? A better strategy?"
Xin Zhuo said slowly: "There are some things that need not be said. Just do it if you do it. Doing it ignorantly and pretending to be real is the best acting! Or... I don't need them to do anything at all, as long as As long as they go."
The so-called plague cannot kill all the armies of the Western Regions. Those people are not fools. They naturally have their own ways to avoid the plague. Moreover, it is impossible for all the millions of troops to be infected in just two days.
The medicine that was injected into the bodies of Zhang Guangpu's people was not a real plague. It could only be transmitted through breathing, causing vomiting and diarrhea, and making the whole body sore and numb.
At that time, it will be good to weaken the effective strength of the Western Region Allied Forces as much as possible.
"My slave understands."
Hongshu nodded in understanding and stepped aside.
"Prince!"
At this time, Ying Jianying hurriedly walked in from outside and handed over two letters, "Letter from home in Beijing!"
Letter home?
Xin Zhuo took the first letter and opened it. It was written by the old lady. A few months later, the old lady had woken up and her body had recovered well. However, she was not as strong as before. All matters at home were left to that person... …The grandson’s daughter-in-law, Princess Shengping, temporarily takes the place of her.
Princess Shengping's abilities are very outstanding, and her skills and temperament are very suitable for the old lady. All the widowed princesses and ladies are also convinced by her!
In just a few months, all the big and small matters in the family have been handled in an orderly manner, and everyone admires and respects him, whether he is the young master, the head of the branch, the manager of the shop below, or the thousands of servants in the house.
The old lady's letter ended with a change of tone, pointing out that all the dignitaries, imperial ministers, literati, and martial arts masters in the entire capital were paying attention to the war in the Western Regions. She also pointed out in a subtle way that, in addition to ordinary people and ordinary officials who were full of worries, the upper-level ministers were also concerned about the war in the Western Regions. The meaning of the mind is difficult to understand.
In the end, he was very worried about his safety and asked him to take care of himself no matter what. If things couldn't be done, he could flee back to the capital with his soldiers. If he lost the Western Region, he would just lose it. He could just go home and be an idle relative of the emperor.
Xin Zhuo put down the letter and frowned. This old lady was really old. Ever since she smashed the mansions of the ministers and the emperor's gates, the situation had reached a dead end. If there was no strong military or martial arts realm that could be relied on, How can they tolerate themselves?
This time the competition is about skills, a showdown with the capital. Apart from winning, winning completely, there is no way out!
After a moment of silence, I opened the second letter, and my brows furrowed even more tightly:
"Good morning, husband, I did not commit suicide. No matter how my husband views my past and future events, I must wait for the news of my husband's victory... I will always wait for you at Jiang's house...
Everything in your family is safe, and your husband cherishes everything, don’t think about it! "
The signature is Ji Yaoyue.
There is no writing style to speak of, and there is not much explanation, just like an ordinary wife.
Husband...
Ah!
Xin Zhuo flicked his fingers, and the envelope was broken into countless pieces, falling like snowflakes.
Be unfaithful once, never be faithful again!
Although Ji Yaoyue did not say that she was unfaithful, she would be the most vicious person in the world if she trapped herself to death. It would not be an exaggeration to kill her.
It's just that he suddenly couldn't understand this woman's thoughts. Any woman with normal thinking would never do such a price reduction between life and death enemies.
I wish I could kill you, but you are willing to commit yourself to being a widowed wife. Although women are very popular in this world, marriage is definitely the biggest and most important thing in any woman's life!
What on earth do you think?
Go back another day and kill her? It seems to be a very low-status and boring thing!
The inexplicable change in her mentality seemed to kill her and make her no longer fun.
What about stripping her naked? Ask her if she knows she is wrong? I feel sick just thinking about it!
Su Miaojin...
I have sent her three letters, but all of them have been thrown into the sea and there is no news.
I don’t know, what is she thinking about?
On the side, Hongshu and Ying Jianying saw the unhappy look on the prince's face and couldn't help but remain silent.
"Get out! I want to think about something."
Xin Zhuo rubbed his eyebrows.
Hongshu and Ying Jianying looked at each other, left in a hurry, closed the palace door tightly, and stood in front of the door to wait carefully.
However, for a whole day and night, the prince did not go out. Even the old commander Jiang Hu ran to the courtyard and cursed, but there was no movement in the palace.
Until the next day, when night fell, Murong Xiu, Huang Dagui, Cui Ying'er, and Xiong Zhao all arrived, looking at the closed door with strange eyes.
"What is the prince doing?" Cui Ying'er asked quietly.
Hongshu said worriedly: "I haven't been out for a day and a night, and my meals have not been eaten. We don't dare to disturb him!"

"There is trouble in the Western Region army, and the prince must be informed!"
Murong Xiu had been training in the army for several months, and his face had grown stubble, and he had become much more mature. He pushed open the palace door without hesitation: "Master, I have something to do..."
Before he finished speaking, he could no longer speak.
A group of people outside looked in and were also surprised——
The prince spread his long hair and used more than a dozen pieces of white paper to piece together a huge topographic map, including one state and five prefectures, thirteen countries in the Western Region, the Xihe Nine Waters Corridor, the Three Thousand Mile Horse Plain, etc...
There were scattered brushes and inkstones scattered on the ground. At this moment, Xin Zhuo was standing in front of a huge map, with his hands behind his back, his expression extremely calm, and his body even exuded a powerful light that made people look at him.
"Prince!"
"The boss!"
Everyone shouted loudly and stood aside cautiously.
But Xin Zhuo suddenly walked up to the bookcase and sat down cross-legged, his eyes full of coldness: "Is there a commotion in the Western Region Army?"
Murong Xiu's face was full of joy and he said: "Yes! Today, the Western Region Army stopped attacking, and the scouts reported that there are mourners everywhere near the main camp of the Western Region Army!"
"But...this is not a blessing."
Cui Ying'er sighed, "It seems we will run out of food tomorrow, just like we did in Fulong Mountain."
"It doesn't matter!"
Xin Zhuo looked at the huge topographic map on the wall. Suddenly, with a flick of his finger, the small sword in his hand flew away and nailed hard somewhere on the map.
Everyone looked quickly and saw the words "Xiao Feichuan" written clearly on the map where the small sword had been stabbed.
Remember there is a vast plain area!
What does the prince mean?
"Notice, the troops will be fully paid tonight, the three passes will be abandoned tomorrow, all the Western Qin troops will assemble, the last meal will be cooked at the end of Mao hour, the iron pot will be broken, and the army will set off at the beginning of the morning!"
Xin Zhuo stood up and looked at the crescent moon that had just risen in the sky outside the window: "The time has come!"
A group of people looked shocked and saluted in unison: "Here!"
