Thinking about it now, Ye Mingsheng felt a little regretful. If he had known about the Zhenwu Army today, even if he took some risks, he would still get some benefits from the palace.
Although the road to Gongdu Palace was dead, Ye Mingsheng quickly thought of a new way to make money!
In the previous battle in Liujing, Ye Mingsheng's troops probably captured about 2,000 palace soldiers. Currently, these people are guarded and detained by Lin Huaiwu's troops. As long as he said a word, Lin Huaiwu secretly released a few people. Come out, no one will notice...
A considerable number of these captured military attaches among the palace soldiers were from wealthy families in the palace, and their families were very wealthy. Therefore, the families of these captured military attaches would try to contact Ye Mingsheng through various channels to redeem them with money. go.
In order to avoid suspicion before, Ye Mingsheng ignored these things and asked Ye Tie to help him block these things.
But now that he knew about Zhenwu Army, Ye Mingsheng had changed his mind. He decided to accumulate some virtue, help others, and try his best to reunite other families as soon as possible.
Of course, things must be good things, but this time Ye Mingsheng wants to be of high moral character and do good deeds without leaving a name. Therefore, this matter still needs to be considered in the long run, acted carefully, and cannot be rushed.

···················
On the sixth day of April in the eighth year of the Great Zhou Dynasty, at noon, the sun was shining brightly.
Starting from Wanfeng Mansion, Xu Zhaojie finally led the army and arrived around Liujing.
As Xiang Yuanhui, the highest-ranking Zhou officer in Liujing City, after receiving the news, he immediately took Ye Mingsheng, Wang Kangxin and other military attaches to three miles outside the west gate in person, waiting for Xu Zhaojie's arrival.
After waiting for nearly an hour, the army arrived belatedly. Looking at Xu Zhaojie, who was surrounded by generals and riding on a tall horse, he led many military attaches to Yuan Hui, bowed and said in unison. :
"I'm of a humble rank, and I respectfully welcome the general!"
Looking at these subordinates who came to greet him three miles away from the city, a satisfied smile appeared on Xu Zhaojie's handsome face, and he couldn't help but look around at everyone.
However, when his eyes spotted two figures standing behind Xiang Yuanhui, the smile on his face suddenly froze.
Then his face darkened, and he said with a cold face: "You all have worked hard!" Then he ignored everyone, raised his riding whip, and the one who rode the horse without looking back was Liu. Kyo ran towards the direction.
Feeling Xu Zhaojie's cold attitude, Xiang Yuanhui was a little confused. He didn't know where he was and had offended the Zhenyuan Marquis.
But he didn't pay too much attention. After all, he was the military attache of the Cavalry Army, and Xu Zhaojie was the commander of the Xuanwu Army.
Before, it was because the war was not over yet, and he was controlled by Xu Zhaojie, the general who conquered the east. Now the palace has determined that Xu Zhaojie will be out of control in a short time.
Compared with Xiang Yuanhui's indifference, the faces of Ye Mingsheng and Wang Kangxin standing behind him were very ugly at this time. As generals who had followed Xu Zhaojie for several years, they naturally understood that Xu Zhaojie was so bad. Attitude, who is it directed at?············
The crowd, who had been disappointed by Xu Zhaojie, returned to Liu Jing. Ye Mingsheng and Wang Kangxin, who were feeling a little heavy, rode at the back of the team in unison.
Looking at Wang Kangxin with a gloomy face, Ye Mingsheng wanted to test this guy's tone on a whim. He considered his words, lowered his voice, and said in a low voice that only the two of them could hear:
"Brother Wang, where do you plan to go to work after you go back?"
Ye Mingsheng's voice brought Wang Kangxin out of his gloom. He glanced at Ye Mingsheng, and instead of answering Ye Mingsheng's question, he asked:
"Where are you going? It's not going to the Hujie Forbidden Army. Where is your fellow countryman?"
Hearing Wang Kangxin reveal his original plan, Ye Mingsheng didn't pay too much attention to it. After all, the relationship between him and Fang Jing was not a big unknown secret. Wang Kangxin knew that this was normal. So he nodded and followed Wang Kangxin's words and continued:
"I really can't hide this idea from you, Brother Wang. I'm going to be separated from Brother Wang soon, and I'm really reluctant to bear it."
Seeing that Ye Mingsheng's thoughts were guessed by him, Wang Kangxin sneered at the corner of his mouth, glanced at Ye Mingsheng with pity, then pinched the horse's belly, accelerated his speed, and ran forward.
Feeling the coldness in Wang Kangxin's eyes, Ye Mingsheng touched his nose helplessly. His brother Wang really didn't remember eating and fighting. He didn't remember long at all. He always believed his own words so easily. ········
After returning to Liujing City, although Xu Zhaojie didn't want to see him, because he was still Xu Zhaojie's subordinate and a military attaché of the Zhenwu Army, in order not to let anything go wrong, he gave Xu Zhaojie an excuse to deal with him, so Ye Mingsheng came again at noon the next day. He took the initiative to go to Xu Zhaojie's camp, wanting to report the battle situation to his immediate superior.
However, as Ye Mingsheng expected, he stood outside the camp gate for several hours under the scorching sun. Until the sun set and the sky was shrouded in pitch black night, Xu Zhaojie still turned a deaf ear. The camp gate was closed tightly and he did not want to see anything. his meaning.
Seeing that his legs were numb and stiff, Ye Mingsheng felt that he had done his best and left nothing to Xu Zhaojie to deal with his own excuses. He immediately bowed deeply to the carriage again and left with the support of his own soldiers. go.
However, what Ye Mingsheng didn't expect was that as soon as he turned around and left, an inconspicuous-looking soldier at the camp gate ran back to report.
Lieutenant General Dong Chunyu, who received the news a moment later, immediately passed through the checkpoints and walked into the camp where Xu Zhaojie was located and reported;
"General, Ye Mingsheng is gone!"
Xu Zhaojie, who was sitting in his seat and was concentrating on reading the book "Spring and Autumn" in his hand, did not raise his head when he heard this, but said contemptuously: "Huh! Pretentious, extremely artificial..."
"Ye Mingsheng can still put on a show. It's Wang Kangxin who should be killed. Does he really think that with his uncle Wang Zhongsen's relationship, he will be transferred to the Zhenwu Army with certainty? He won't even make a show of it. , I’m afraid he doesn’t know that with just one word from you, General, with just a flick of your finger, you can destroy the Wang family!” Dong Chunyu said with anger on his face:
