"This imperial brother does not need to worry. General Li has protected our country and the Ming Dynasty his whole life. If he doesn't go, it is just because it is not time for him to take action. He is also very worried about the comfort of our Ming Dynasty. I guess lending Zhao Xuanyi will not be a problem!" After Zhu Chufeng heard this, His face softened a lot and he nodded slightly.
"Yuejun, this is a very good idea. If Zhao Xuanyi can really bring out the colors and bless the people of Ming Dynasty to have a safe New Year, he will have made a great contribution!"
"Without further delay, the opportunity to fight is fleeting. Brother Huang, I'm going to find Zhao Xuanyi now!" Zhu Chufeng stood up in a hurry.
"Then there's Sister Lao Huang!"
"Brother, you're welcome!" Zhao Xuanyi said with a smile.
"Come here, bring my carriage and take Young Master Zhao out of the palace to do some business!" Zhu Chufeng shouted.
"Thank you, brother!" The golden carriage walked out of the Xuanwu Gate in the palace. I saw that this carriage was extraordinary. The carriage was covered with jade glazed tiles. Four colorful wind lanterns were hung at the four corners. Gold steps and silver pillars. Even the windows are inlaid with emerald agate, and even the railings are made of huanghuali.
When everyone in the palace saw this carriage, they all knelt down and saluted without daring to raise their heads. This was the emperor's royal carriage, known as the Moving Jade Palace!
The carriage came to a stop in front of Piaoyun Pavilion. When all the soldiers saw the carriage and the surrounding royal guards wearing golden armor, they all knelt down instantly.
Nanzhu stood up with a serious face
"Hurry up and inform your general that the eldest princess is here and ask him to pick her up!"
"Yes!" The soldier ran into the house to deliver the message! Zhao Xuanyi hasn't slept yet. After coming back today, he was full of anger. If he hadn't slapped Li Hanyan twice in front of Li Yukun, how dare he touch the wine in his room?
Really looking for death! On the way back today, Li Hanyan didn't dare to talk to herself, and Li Hanyan ignored this brainless woman. Although she knew she was unintentional, she was always angry. Zhao Xuanyi was almost fainted by herself!
[Clang, clang, clang! 】There was a knock on the door.
"Young Master, are you asleep?" It was Shen Wei's voice.
"Not yet, what's the matter?" Zhao Xuanyi asked.
"The eldest princess has arrived in the emperor's carriage. It is now at the front door, waiting for you to pick her up!"
"Say I'm asleep!"
"..." Shen Wei really wanted to put the grenade in his mouth, then pull out the fuse and blow himself up, so he pushed open the door.
"Young Master, this is no joke, let's go!" Shen Wei pulled Zhao Xuanyi and walked outside.
When Zhao Xuanyi came to the gate of the mansion, he saw Li Hanyan and several maids had come out and were kneeling at the door to pick him up!
Zhao Xuanyi walked over slowly and knelt on the ground.
"General Zhao Xuanyi, meet the eldest princess!" Zhu Yuejun did not get off the carriage, but said softly
"General Zhao, please get into the carriage and reply!"
"Yes!" Zhao Xuanyi stood up and looked at the carriage. He thought it was really impressive. The gold, jade, agate, gemstone and emerald are probably worth a lot of money, right?
Zhao Xuanyi was about to board the carriage when he was stopped by Nan Zhu. Before Zhao Xuanyi asked what was going on, he saw Nan Zhu take out a piece of red silk and put it on the pure gold step, and then made a gesture of invitation. Zhao Xuanyi glared at Nan Zhu, thinking that he was afraid that I would step on it for you. ?
Zhao Xuanyi got on the carriage, opened the curtain and walked in. After entering, he realized that the carriage was very big inside. It was estimated that it would not be a problem to seat seven or eight people inside. Zhu Yuejun was sitting in the middle wearing a snow-white cloak. He was so hot. Tea is ready.
Seeing Zhao Xuanyi coming, he made a gesture of invitation
"I'm really ashamed to bother General Zhao so late!" Zhao Xuanyi chuckled.
"Eldest Princess, we just don't need to be so open-minded!"
"No, no, no, I still have to say what needs to be said!" Zhu Yuejun said with an apologetic face.
"No, no, no, you misunderstood me. If you were really ashamed, you wouldn't bother me!" Zhao Xuanyi said softly.
"..." Zhu Yuejun was very angry at Zhao Xuanyi, but she restrained herself from getting angry. After all, she had something serious to do this time.
"I came to see you so late because I have something to discuss with you!"
"No!" Zhao Xuanyi said directly. Zhu Yuejun was lucky enough not to be beaten to death. His face was full of embarrassment and he stared at Zhao Xuanyi with a pair of bright eyes.
"I haven't said anything yet!"
"Isn't it about the Far East War Zone? Tang Wujie offered 400,000 taels. I wonder how much Ye Yaoming offered?" Zhu Yuejun thought to himself. Zhao Xuanyi was really smart and had already guessed it.
"Two hundred thousand taels!" Zhao Xuanyi smiled
"Ye Yaoming still knows how to do business. If Tang Wujie had Ye Yaoming's business acumen, he probably wouldn't have offered this price!"
"The national treasury is tight now, is it really...?"
"That's right! The treasury is very nervous, and the general is curious. How many dishes will the eldest princess have for tonight?" Zhao Xuanyi looked at Zhu Yuejun and asked.
Zhu Yuejun opened his mouth and was too embarrassed to say that there were twelve dishes! Zhu Yuejun understood what Zhao Xuanyi meant. The royal family was extravagant and wasteful, but it was really funny to say that there was no military pay in front of the generals who defended the country.
"These are two different things! The majesty of the royal family is inviolable!"
"Like Ye Huilan?" Zhao Xuanyi continued to ask. 【Snapped! 】Zhu Yuejun slapped the table hard to express his anger.
"Be gentle, it's made of rosewood!" Zhao Xuanyi said, looking at the tea table. Zhu Yuejun was so angry that he couldn't say a word.
"Tell me, what are the conditions?" Zhu Yuejun didn't want to talk to Zhao Xuanyi about any big principles or tricks. This guy didn't accept such tricks at all!
"The eldest princess has misunderstood. I still want to live for a few more years. There is nothing that hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses can do about it. How can I possibly do something about it?" Zhao Xuanyi said with a look of avoidance.
Zhu Yuejun drank a cup of tea to relieve his anger
"I know that you hold a grudge against me for driving Tang Rou out of the capital!"
"Don't dare!" Zhu Yuejun closed her eyes
"I forgive you, you can say whatever you want now!"
"What? I'm so happy after saying that, how about you keep it in mind and settle the scores later? In terms of resourcefulness, I can't compare to the eldest princess!"
"What do you want?" Zhu Yuejun asked angrily. Zhao Xuanyi looked at Zhu Yuejun quietly without saying a word, looking at Zhu Yuejun with particularly pure eyes.
Zhu Yuejun was finally defeated by Zhao Xuanyi
"Let's talk about something simple. You go and take back the four lost cities, and I'll give you 50,000 taels of silver!"
"Oh, how generous! It's half cheaper than the price offered by Tang Wujie, and it's still a corner!" Zhu Yuejun frowned.
"Zhao Xuanyi, while I have a good talk with you, you'd better agree. Otherwise, believe it or not, I will immediately find Tang Rou and kill her!" When Tang Rou was mentioned, Zhao Xuanyi lost his temper instantly. Zhao Xuanyi knew that Tang Rou Rou can definitely do it, but according to Zhu Yuejun's words, she doesn't know where Tang Rou is. From this point of view, Tang Rou is still safe!
"First, I want one hundred thousand taels!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"What a lion!" Zhu Yuejun said in shock.
"Otherwise you can go discuss it with Ye Yaoming?"
"How can I trust you?"
"After I take back the lost city, you can give it to me when I return to the capital. Secondly, give me ten carts of gunpowder, also after the war!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
Zhu Yuejun was not at a loss no matter what, he nodded lightly.
"Sure, I promise you!"
"Third! Find Tang Rou for me and bring her back!" Zhao Xuanyi said. When Zhu Yuejun heard Zhao Xuanyi mention Tang Rou, he smiled slightly.
"You know, it's not hard for me to find someone, but are you sure you want me to find her? Once I find her, do you think Dongchang will let her go? I will bring Tang Rou back to you now and keep her by your side. Can you keep her?" Zhao Xuanyi gritted his teeth, his face full of gloom.
"Then why did you drive her away in the first place? What the hell are you!" Unable to bear it any longer, Zhao Xuanyi yelled at Zhu Yuejun!
When Zhu Yuejun saw Zhao Xuanyi's expression, his eyes were blood red and his veins were bulging, as if he wanted to eat himself. Zhu Yuejun was not afraid at all, but smiled slightly.
"Because I like it! Is that enough of a reason?" Zhao Xuanyi let out a long breath, feeling much better when he cursed!
"You can curse more!" Zhu Yuejun said with a smile. In the past two months, Zhao Xuanyi seemed to be alive as a dead person, and today Zhu Yuejun saw the former Zhao Xuanyi. Even for a moment, Zhu Yuejun was very happy.
"Forget it, I'm afraid you'll remember it if I scold you too much. If it's okay, then I'll make arrangements!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"What are your arrangements? Don't tell me, you plan to set off tonight!" Zhu Yuejun asked in surprise.
"Does it make any difference to stay one more night? Besides, the war ahead is tense, isn't it?" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he bowed deeply to Zhu Yuejun and then left!
"Wait! Are you planning to put on your Qilin Guard and rush to the battlefield?" Zhu Yuejun asked.
"How many people will we bring?"
"You must bring at least two thousand guards! No matter how strong your Qilin Guards are, five hundred people are too few!"
"Hmph! A hundred thousand dollars of waste is also waste. Five hundred? That's enough! Don't worry about how to defeat the eldest princess. Just prepare the silver and gunpowder and wait until I come back to receive the reward!" After Zhao Xuanyi finished speaking, he walked out of the carriage.
After Zhao Xuanyi got off the carriage, Nan Zhu waved his hand, and the gorgeous carriage slowly left Piaoyun Pavilion. Shen Wei, Li Hanyan and others all ran over.
"Young Master, does the eldest princess have something important to ask you?"
"Yes, the eldest princess knows that I will go to the Far East to fight the war!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"What? Send you?" Shen Wei said in surprise.
"How many troops and horses will I give you?" Li Hanyan asked.
"No, I plan to take the Qilin Guards and rush to the Far East!" After Zhao Xuanyi said this, several people around him almost fainted.
"This is nonsense! What can five hundred people do? A pioneer has thirty thousand, and your Qilin Guards can kill you all right there!" Li Hanyan shouted worriedly.
"I only have a plan for this matter. Brother Shen, you ride quickly and gather all the Qilin Guards. Let them prepare tonight, have a good rest, and set off early tomorrow morning!" Zhao Xuanyi gave the Qilin Order to Shen Wei.
Shen Wei looked at the Qilin Token in his hand and felt very worried.
"Young Master, are we really not bringing any more people with us?"
"No, I can't trust outsiders! Remember, let all Qilin Guards wear all their equipment. This is a tough battle, and we have to fight hard!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"Yes!" After Shen Wei finished speaking, he took the Qilin Order with both hands, then mounted his horse and rushed towards the military camp. Zhao Xuanyi brought Aoxue out, and Li Hanrui stopped Zhao Xuanyi.
"where are you going?"
"Go and tell your father-in-law. After all, we have to mobilize the Qilin Guards to the Far East. No matter what, we have to tell my father-in-law!"
"I'll go too, just wait for me!" Li Hanyan found her horse, put on her three maids, and followed Zhao Xuanyi to the general's mansion.
I came to the General's Mansion twice overnight. The door of the General's Mansion was already closed. After Li Hanyan got off her horse, she slammed the door hard, and the guard inside came over with a face full of reluctance.
"Who is outside? The general has already taken a rest. If you have anything to do, please be early tomorrow!"
"Open the door quickly!" Li Hanyan shouted loudly. When the soldiers inside heard Li Hanyan's voice, they opened the door without saying a word. When they saw Li Hanyan standing in front of the door, they hurriedly knelt down.
"It turns out that the young lady is back, and you had a fight with my uncle again?" [Pa! ] Li Hanyan slapped the soldier on the face, causing him to spin around in a circle and then fall down.
"Go and call the general right away. Tell him that we have something important to discuss. Then call my second brother. Go quickly!"
"Yes!" The soldier covered his face and ran into the backyard. It was not long before Li Yukun and Li Hanrui came. The family gathered in the hall again. Li Yukun hurriedly asked
"Son-in-law, what's the emergency in the middle of the night?"
"Father-in-law, the eldest princess gave me an order to go to the Far East!" Zhao Xuanyi said.
"Let you go?" Li Yukun asked in surprise.
"Yes!" After thinking for a long time, Li Yukun did not object.
"How many people do you plan to take? Go to the military camp and mobilize troops yourself!"
"No need to bother, I'll just take my Qilin Guard with me!"
"Nonsense, even if your Qilin Guard is made of iron, how many nails can it drive? It's too risky for you to take such a small number of people!" Li Yukun shouted.
Zhao Xuanyi smiled
"Don't worry, father-in-law, I know what I'm doing. I'm just going to help. I don't necessarily have to go. Even if I have to fight, I'm confident. Besides, it's not easy for me to bring other soldiers with me. They're not as good as my own brothers!" After Li Yukun heard this, he frowned
"Have you really thought about it?"
"Yes! Thank you for your concern, father-in-law, but I am here to ask for nothing. Please lend me a hundred Tianyi Bows. I don't have enough of my own!"
"What else do you need?"
