The commander's move made King Yu raise his eyebrows, a little surprised. After looking at each other with Su Qi'an, he didn't say anything more, nodded and motioned to get up.
The Beishan camp soldiers who were behind to deal with the bandits seemed to have received instructions. The murderous intent on their faces instantly dissipated. They sheathed the swords in their hands and stepped back to the side.
This battle was a clean one. As the soldiers of the Beishan Battalion gave in, the first commander and the second commander stepped forward and clasped their fists.
"Prince Yu was frightened by this banditry. What happened in Beishan County was due to our incompetence. I hope you will forgive me, Prince Yu. This is not the place to talk. I also ask Prince Yu to move to Beishan County. When the time comes, How to punish me is up to you, no questions asked."
The Commander-in-Chief's statement of loyalty was so sincere that even Prince Yu had no reason to refuse.
King Yu turned around and got into the carriage with Su Qi'an. When he was about to leave, the voice of the second commander suddenly sounded.
"May I ask this gentleman his name?"
The second commander's voice came a little unexpectedly. Su Qian turned around and was about to say something when King Yu beside him said softly.
"What? Does the Second Commander want to settle accounts?"
The second commander hurriedly shook his head and explained, "Prince Yu has misunderstood. The main reason is that this gentleman is so impressive in terms of eloquence and methods. It is difficult for people to think that he is just a merchant. It is almost enough to say that he is a military advisor. If he is really a merchant, he will be underestimating his talents." Already."
"Even this commander wants to make friends with such a person. I hope Prince Yu won't be surprised."
Su Qi'an nodded, glanced at the second commander, and said indifferently, "My surname is Qi, and my single name is An."
"Oh, it turns out to be Mr. Qi'an, I'm sorry."
Su Qi'an did not notice the respect of the second commander. Before getting on the carriage, he glanced around and said, "To be honest, first commander and second commander, you made a wise move just now." But Fan's mind was a little wrong. I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to leave this official road alive. "
Although Su Qian's tone was joking, the expressions of the first and second commanders changed slightly, and they quickly returned to normal, cupping their fists and saying quickly.
"Mr. Qi is joking. This operation is a complete misunderstanding. You also know it. Now that the banditry has been eliminated, don't listen to the nonsense of those bandits."
"When we get to town and clear up the misunderstanding, I think we can get along very well and maybe even become friends."
"Haha, I hope it is as the commander-in-chief said."
Su Qian said with a smile, and then got on the carriage.
Su Qi'an's words just now were really not a joke. With Beishan Camp's superiority in men and horses, the first and second commanders would be ruthless enough to attack them. Whether Su Qi'an and Prince Yu can leave here alive is really a question mark.
The reason why he didn't make up his mind was not because he was afraid of taking responsibility, or because he was afraid of death because he could fight against Da Rong and retain the established army.
There is only one real reason, and that is...
At this moment, at the end of the official road, a rapid sound of horse hooves sounded, and a tall, middle-aged man wearing armor came quickly.
Looking at his armor, you can tell that this person is definitely not a low-level officer in the army, and behind him, there are also a large number of cavalry.
As the unidentified cavalry approached, the expressions of the two commanders changed instantly when they saw the appearance of the leader.
This person is none other than the third commander of the Beishan Camp, and also their so-called third brother.
The sudden appearance of the third commander made the two of them seem to realize something. The second commander's hand unconsciously rested on the handle of his knife, and there was obviously some killing intent in his eyes.
But as soon as he took action, the commander's hand was already on his scabbard. When the second commander looked at him, the commander shook his head slightly, with strong resistance in his eyes.
The second commander's eyes flashed. When the third commander gradually arrived and dismounted, the second commander sighed helplessly, as if he was ready to meet his fate.
The moment the third commander dismounted, he immediately took out a scroll from his arms, stood in the middle, first gestured to Prince Yu with a fist, then opened the scroll and said loudly.
"The order of Lord Zhou Mu,
The officers and soldiers of the Beishan Battalion have been bullying men and women in Zhongzhou all year round. Not only is it unworthy of the military style of Daliang, but it also loses the face of Zhongzhou. Now, due to incorrect intelligence, it almost caused a catastrophe. "
"The Grand Commander and Second Commander of the Beishan Camp have unshirkable responsibilities. I have specially ordered the Grand Commander, Second Commander, and General to hand over everything in the generals to the Third Commander. They will wait for the state to report to the court before imposing punishment. During the reporting period, they are prohibited from leaving the Beishan camp."
The two commanders were not surprised by the three commanders' orders, and their faces were only slightly numb.
The two of them cupped their hands and accepted the order read by the third commander. The first commander stepped forward and chuckled lightly as he looked at the third commander's face, which showed a bit of sadness.
"Haha, congratulations, Third Brother, you finally got the rights you dreamed of."
"However, as the eldest brother, I still want to tell you that the more power you have in your hands, the more likely you will fall miserably in the end. It depends on whether you, the third brother, have the strength to bear this power. Don't put it down I was crushed to death."
After the commander-in-chief said this, he sneered and got on his horse without looking back. The second commander-in-chief behind him also looked unhappy. He snorted coldly, got on his horse, and left here with the commander-in-chief and a dozen soldiers.
Watching the two commanders leave, the third commander looked indifferent. No one knew what he was thinking. No one knew whether what the commander just said had any impact on him.
The third commander appeared, said a few words briefly, and then smoothly took over the remaining teams at the scene.
The nearly three thousand soldiers present were gathered together and left slowly according to the formation. As the soldiers moved, the slightly crowded official road became obviously much wider.
At this time, the third commander handed over the management of the soldiers to his deputy behind him, quickly came to King Yu, and spoke briefly to him.
After a while, he turned around and left. Su Qian's motorcade was also escorted by soldiers, moving slowly.
After watching the three commanders leave, King Yu turned around and got on Su Qi'an's carriage.
The two sat opposite each other, and there was a slight silence in the car. In the end, Su Qian opened his mouth to break the silence.
"Tell me, should I continue to call you Lao Ji, or should I call you Prince Yu?"
Su Ji had a smile on his face. After watching Su Qian's silence for a while, he said softly.
"If you like, I still like the name Lao Ji. It sounds more friendly."
"Haha, I don't dare. If the court finds out, I will probably be impeached again. According to the seniority, I feel more cordial to call you uncle."
Su Ji couldn't help laughing after hearing this. He could naturally recognize Su Qi'an's voiceover.
On that occasion, he revealed his identity, which really shocked Su Qi'an, but Su Qi'an was not stupid. It was absolutely impossible for this extraordinary King Yu not to know his identity and background.
Based on the people he traveled with along the way, he knew people in every county along the Zhongzhou route. He was afraid that Su Qi'an's identity would have been revealed long ago.
To be more precise, he knew Su Qi'an's identity from the beginning and chose to go with him. This was prepared from the beginning.
Su Ji laughed, and Su Qi'an couldn't help but laugh. Both parties concealed their identities. In fact, they probably guessed it. This kind of seeing through without telling the truth, traveling together and pretending to be a businessman, sounded somewhat funny. .
Laughter rippled through the car, then slowly subsided, Su Jidao.
"Your reputation, Marquis Dongshan, has actually spread to Zhongzhou a long time ago. It's just that you can say whatever you say, but I've only seen your voice but not your person. I hope the emperor's nephew won't blame you for pretending to be a companion this time."
In response to Su Ji's frankness, Su Qian'an waved his hand and said quickly, "Uncle Huang's words are out of touch. To understand a person, you have to get in touch with him personally. There are good and bad rumors from the outside world. If you don't get in touch to distinguish, who will know who I am?" What kind of person is he?"
"Qi An can understand your uncle's caution. After all, I am very cautious towards you, uncle."
"Hahaha…"
In the carriage, the hearty laughter of the two people sounded again.
Such a candid exchange between the two would seem incredible to outsiders.
After all, the communication between royal members can be
There are eight hundred people who are polite on the surface, but they don’t know how many knives are hidden in their hearts.
But the conversation between Su Ji and Su Qi'an was not false at all, but honest and frank. It seemed that they felt like old friends at first sight.
It's not surprising to have such a feeling. The two came into contact with fake identities. The identities were fake, but the communication was real, especially the customs and customs of the contact with Su Ji.
He could tell how Su Ji was as a person and the people he kept friends with.
As for whether he was deliberately acting for Su Qi'an to see, Su Qi'an had thought about it, but the second thought was completely unnecessary.
With his status, he is a dignified prince after all, and outsiders think that he is a simple prince, but in fact, he uses this outside view to quietly travel around Zhongzhou, and even established three major trading houses in Zhongzhou.
This kind of scheming is definitely not something ordinary people can do. If Su Ji has any bad intentions towards Su Qi'an, Su Qi'an will definitely fall into a big trap, even if he is 100% successful.
After all, from the moment he stepped into Zhongzhou, Su Qi'an was basically under Su Ji's surveillance the entire time.
Outsiders thought that this idle prince was really carefree, but through contact, Su Qi'an could feel the terrifying strength of this uncle.
Not to mention anything else, why can the two commanders of Beishan Camp obediently hand over power and wait for their resignation?
The fear of Zhongzhou Mu was on the one hand, but more importantly, the unremarkable-looking Xiaoyao Prince, Su Ji.
Think about it, such a powerful army as the Beishan Camp was arranged next to the Su Ji fiefdom. There was no natural barrier between the two counties.
But after so many years, the rebellion caused by the Beishan camp in Zhongzhou has never spread to the Qingshui County next door. Just think about it and you will know that the King of Yu is not simple.
If Zhongzhou Mu is the person in power on the surface of Zhongzhou, then secretly, Su Ji is the person in power behind the scenes in Zhongzhou.
