When Zhao Shuao heard these words, it seemed as if the sky suddenly brightened in front of his eyes, instantly dispelling the shrouded fog.
He looked at Du Duan's indifferent eyes and felt suddenly.
So that’s how it is!
He found it strange that Du Duan had always been a taciturn and prudent person, but what he said outside the Lizhou government office was completely different from the past.
It turned out that Du Duan was doing this to advance the actual martial arts competition.
Suppressing bandits in Lishan...that was what Du Duan was planning!
Based on his understanding of Du Duan, the other party would never target it without aim. Since the other party said so, then...
It must have been approved by Princess Changding.
Sure enough, Princess Changding nodded and said calmly: "Mr. Du's words are very true. Since the suppression of bandits is a practical competition for martial arts, and the three emperor brothers were kidnapped to Lishan, then the actual battle should be advanced, Ge What does the Lord think?"
Although Tao Jingyi didn't know why things turned out this way, she remembered His Highness Chang Ding's instructions before leaving:
When in doubt, ask Mr. Du.
Since Mr. Du said this, there must be a reason for doing so.
even……
She lowered her eyes and looked at the unconscious Shannan Guard soldier on the ground.
She is not a girl who grew up in the backyard of a deep house. Instead, she experienced training in the military camp of the Zhenbei Protectorate, and was secretly taught and entrusted by her great-grandfather. She traveled thousands of miles from Northern Xinjiang to Jingzhao, and her vision was beyond the reach of ordinary people.
From the moment this cavalry suddenly appeared, she knew it must be designed by someone.
Otherwise, even if the prince was imprisoned in Shannan Road and became a commoner, no one would dare to kidnap him.
Not to mention, in the end, a Shannan Guard soldier came to report the news, and happened to pass out after the report was completed.
As for who designed it...
It was obvious just to see Mr. Du pick up the conversation so quickly.
How could others not think of things that Tao Jingyi could think of?
After Zhao Shuao, Zheng Qiong, Guo Chang and others also reacted.
Of course, the first person to speak out against it was Ling Hanxiao.
Ling Hanxiao said coldly: "Your Highness, the son of a rich man cannot sit down in the hall. You must not go to Lishan at this time!"
He knew something was out of control, but no matter what, it was absolutely not okay for Princess Changding to appear in Lizhou at this time!
Not to mention the weird things like the third prince being kidnapped to Lishan Mountain, he was not ready yet for Liyun Village alone!
If His Highness Changding is allowed to appear in Lishan, there will definitely be something wrong with Yuncong, and that will be a failure.
More importantly, with his vigilance as a military commander for many years, he realized that if His Highness Changding went to Lishan, things would be even more uncontrollable.
However, when things reached this point, they were beyond his control.
Tao Jingyi ignored his words and directly ordered: "Pavilion Master, the emperor's brother has been kidnapped. This is a serious matter. This palace will order Chang Ding to lead soldiers to Lishan immediately, and will also immediately request troops from Jingzhao!"
She glanced at Ling Hanxiao and said with a half-smile, "I don't believe it. I personally went to Lishan Mountain and couldn't wipe out these bandits!"
She had something to say. The reasons why the thieves had been unable to be suppressed were complicated and complex, but they were definitely inseparable from the Shannan Guards led by Ling Hanxiao.
The others were silent and didn't dare to speak. Just when she frowned and wanted to give another order, Guo Chang actually spoke.
"Pavilion Master, I believe that the actual battle to suppress the bandits can indeed begin. Times have changed, and this can be regarded as a good test."
Tao Jingyi raised her eyebrows and glanced at Guo Chang. She didn't expect that Mr. Guo, who had always disliked Mr. Du, would say this.
Even Zhao Shuer looked at Guo Chang in surprise, feeling equally surprised in his heart.
Among the top three teams in Field A, Guo Chang's team is the most capable of winning the championship. However, the Lishan Bandit Suppression...
To be honest, he really hadn't thought about doing it at this time.
After all, His Highness Changding had just arrived in Lizhou and was infected with the cold.
Going to Lishan to suppress bandits without any preparation, the variables were too great...
Although the fog in Zhao Shuao's heart had cleared, he knew that Du Duan and His Highness Chang Ding wanted to go to Lishan, but he really didn't understand the reason.
Coupled with the variable of the third prince, this is really too uncontrollable.
But Guo Chang agreed at this time.
The reason why Guo Chang agreed is very simple. .
Before leaving Jingzhao, he was entrusted by His Highness the Crown Prince to facilitate His Highness Changding's trip to Lishan.
When he arrived in Lizhou, he had been thinking about how to get His Highness Changding to Lishan without leaving any trace.
Before he could think of a solution, things like Lizhou Prefectural Government Office came up.
Isn't this the best opportunity right now?
It is better to choose a day than to hit it. Even, he does not need to find a reason for this, he only needs to nod in agreement.
He was driven by His Highness the Crown Prince, so what about Du Duan?
Why is Du Duan rushing to Lishan again?
Guo Chang was not without doubts, but he thought that with so many people from Wuge and soldiers like Shannan Guard, nothing would go wrong.
Furthermore, he also knew very well what Princess Changding was doing.
If you agree to go along, you can adapt to the situation. If not... I'm afraid Princess Changding really has other plans.
Du Fengju's expression remained indifferent, as if he didn't care whether Guo Chang approved or disapproved.
Among the three teams, the gentlemen of two teams had already agreed to go to Lishan, and everyone couldn't help but look at Liu Hui.
Liu Hui just cupped his hands towards Zhao Shuao and said, "Pavilion Master, I will obey the Pavilion Master's arrangements."
The implication is that it depends on how Zhao Shuao, the pavilion master, decides.
Although the situation was urgent at this time, Zhao Shuao was not in a hurry to make a decision. Instead, he caressed his beard leisurely and pondered in silence.
He had not planned to go to Lishan to suppress the bandits at this time, so every team was not ready.
In other words, it is fair for every team to go to Lizhou to suppress bandits at this time.
How could Ling Hanxiao let Zhao Shuao make a decision?
He glanced at his closest confidants and said coldly: "Pavilion Master Zhao, first His Royal Highness Chang Ding was assassinated, and now the prince was kidnapped. I was worried that this was a conspiracy against the royal family. At this time, His Highness stayed in Lizhou The government office is the best option. We will wait until I lead the troops to Lishan to find out the reason."
He didn't care about actual combat against bandits or His Highness Changding. He only knew that nothing could go wrong in Lishan.
Just now, he had been dealing with Princess Changding because she was the princess of the country, so he was inevitably at a disadvantage and was at a disadvantage.
But now that things have changed, there is no need to maintain peace on this front.
As long as he brings enough soldiers to Mount Li, he has no worries about losing control there.
Whether it's Yun Cong, Li Yunzhai, or the escaped Pei Bi and others, they will definitely be in his hands!
At this moment, he still didn't know that even he, the Shannanwei general, could not control the situation in Lishan.
