Ling Hanxiao was tall and bearded. He looked solemn and majestic. He was a typical military general.
He turned over and dismounted, clasped his fists towards Zhao Shuao and said, "Pavilion Master Zhao has come a long way. I am busy with official duties and cannot meet him in time. I hope Pavilion Master Zhao will forgive me."
Although he is now the general of Yiwei, he is much younger than Zhao Shuao. When Zhao Shuao was the general of Guanneiwei, he was still a captain in the army.
Moreover, Zhao Shuao came on the emperor's order, so his words were just right.
Zhao Shuao knew what he was doing, so he stepped forward and said, "What the hell, the general is so polite!"
He and Ling Hanxiao had no interaction in the past, so naturally they couldn't be said to be familiar with each other. What was more in his mind was the purpose of Ling Hanxiao's appearance at this time.
Ling Hanxiao didn't show up a few days ago, but now... he should be here for His Highness Chang Ding.
Sure enough, Ling Hanxiao looked around at the crowd, then his eyes fell on the iconic carriage, and he said, "I heard that His Highness Changding has arrived, so I came here to greet you. I wonder how your Highness is doing?"...
He put his hands behind his back and curved the corners of his lips, anticipating that the other party would get off the carriage.
He is a third-grade general. Even if the prince comes in person, he will treat him with courtesy, let alone a princess?
However, what surprised him was that there was no movement inside the carriage, not even the curtains moved.
The soldiers and generals guarding the carriage also stood upright and seemed not to have heard Ling Hanxiao's words.
Ling Hanxiao's face darkened and he stared at the carriage intently, displeasure rising in his heart.
He has been in a high position for a long time, and no one has dared to disgrace him like this for a long time.
His Highness Changding listened but didn't answer. Wasn't it just a slap in the face?
However, the other party is the darling daughter of heaven, and behind her is the emperor. Even if he is dissatisfied, it is inconvenient to say anything on the spot.
Your Highness Changding, what a grand gesture!
At this time, there were several coughs in the carriage, and then a voice rang out: "General Ling is interested. I contracted a cold on the road and am feeling unwell. I will go to visit General Ling in two days."
Perhaps because of the cold, her voice sounded much hoarse and deeper than usual, but Zhao Shuao and others didn't feel any difference.
But Ling Hanxiao didn't think so.
He had received the report in advance and knew that His Highness Chang Ding was a ruthless character, so this time Lizhou's bandit suppression effort would definitely be kind.
He is not afraid of other things at all, because here on Shannan Road he can cover the sky with one hand, but it is Lishan...
There is a secret in Lishan that he cannot remove, and he must not let people like Jingzhao Wuge ruin his good deeds!
According to his plan, all matters related to Lishan had been arranged before the bandit suppression began.
Who would have expected that at this moment, Hu Chong and Pei Bi would escape!
In order to prevent the secret from being leaked, he ordered his cronies to search quietly, and it was not until today that he forced them to go to Lishan.
With Yun Cong there in Lishan, he was not worried about anything going wrong.
Originally, he wanted to go back to the General's Mansion directly, but at this time he heard the news that people from Jingzhao Wuge had arrived.
Mr. Wuge Ten and the soldiers of Wuge were certainly not worthy of his eyes. What he really cared about was Princess Changding who was widely known among the people.
She left the palace and opened a palace as soon as she was born, took charge of the palace, and entered the martial arts pavilion as a woman... How could such a princess be an ordinary person?
Originally, no matter how special His Highness Changding was, he had nothing to do with him leading the troops here on Shannan Road.
All I can say is that everything just happened to happen!
Thinking of the news coming from Jingzhao, Ling Hanxiao's eyes were half-squinted and his aura became much lighter.
His Majesty Chang Ding's wind and cold situation came too coincidental.
He lowered his voice and continued: "His Highness was infected with the cold when he first came to Lizhou. I feel really sorry for him. The Lizhou government office is not as good as the General's Mansion. Why don't you invite Your Highness to go to the General's Mansion so that I can hire famous doctors to diagnose and treat His Highness?" "
He has already said this, long
If Princess Ding doesn't get off the carriage...then the matter will become even more suspicious.
As he spoke, he took a step closer to the carriage. In an instant, he felt the atmosphere around him change.
As he moved, the soldiers around the carriage also moved quickly. Although there was no big movement, the guarding and alert state was enough to shock people.
Ling Hanxiao didn't show it on his face, but he was quite turbulent in his heart.
These soldiers, these long-term soldiers, are worthy of being carefully selected soldiers in the army, even better than his Shannan Guard soldiers!
Fortunately, this is Shannan Road, and he is in charge of Shannan Guards. Even if His Highness Chang Ding brings all the soldiers from Liangli Mansion, it will be insignificant to him.
However, it was not convenient for him to use so many Shannan Guard soldiers for this matter.
All he can use are his close confidants - as long as Princess Changding goes to Lishan, everything will go according to plan.
He was confident about this matter and didn't think anything would go wrong. However, by some strange combination of circumstances, he still came to the Lizhou Government Office.
He wanted to meet Princess Changding before the suppression of bandits in Lizhou began, and wanted to know what kind of person this Princess Changding was, who had caused so much trouble in Jingzhao.
Until now, he believed that he would definitely see Princess Changding this time.
However, what he heard was this reply: "I will stay here at the Lizhou Mansion Office. Mr. Li, I am short, please ask someone to make arrangements."
Tao Jingyi in the carriage recalled Zheng Ji's tone and expression, trying to think of herself as His Highness Chang Ding.
She didn't know whether she could bluff the people outside the carriage, but she felt that even if the emperor stood in front of her, he would admit his mistake.
She didn't know where His Highness got such a skilled craftsman who could completely change her into someone else.
If given the opportunity, she would definitely ask His Highness to learn this skill seriously from this skilled craftsman.
When His Highness left, he had already told her that no matter who appeared, she did not need to get out of the carriage to receive them.
Even though the person who came was Shannanwei General Ling Hanxiao.
She didn't expect His Highness's calculations to be so accurate. Sure enough, General Shannan Wei was really here!
Because she had received instructions from His Highness a long time ago, even though she was facing His Highness's face at the moment, she felt calm in her heart.
Having said that, when she was at the Zhenbei Protectorate, she often disguised herself and pretended to be other soldiers to go to the army for training.
At this point, it can be considered a skilled trade.
Even she could not tell the difference at first glance. She did not believe that General Shannanwei, who had never met His Highness, could see anything.
From the moment Ling Hanxiao appeared, Du Fengju had been looking at him calmly, as if he was identifying something.
Ling Hanxiao was about to say something on his phone when, unexpectedly, Du Fengju suddenly spoke.
