Ishihara Castle.
On the long street, several figures were strolling in the direction of the General's Mansion. Ning Fan and Mu Qingcheng were walking side by side, with Dian Wei, Xi Xiongtu and others behind them wearing armor.
"Are you sure?"
"Not long after Liao Sicheng was transferred here, most of his soldiers and horses were once the generals under the command of the opera commander, so it's not a big problem."
"Okay!" Ning Fan nodded, looked at Mu Qingcheng and said seriously: "If I can die with Her Majesty the Empress tonight, this life will not be considered in vain."
"You just went to die!"
Mu Qingcheng rolled his eyes and looked at the General's Mansion in front of him. The attendant behind him strode forward, holding up a golden token in his hand.
"Her Majesty Empress Dali is here in person, why don't you show your courtesy?"
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty?"
The guards stationed in front of the General's Mansion were all stunned. They looked at the golden token coldly, then turned their attention to Mu Qingcheng, trembled, and quickly knelt down on the ground.
"See Your Majesty!"
"This time I am conducting an unannounced visit. Take me to see Liao Sicheng!"
"promise!"
The two soldiers stood up tremblingly and led a group of people straight into the general's mansion. After passing through the third courtyard, they came to a main courtyard.
"who?"
"Your Majesty is here in person. Let Liao Sicheng come to see you as soon as possible!"
After hearing this, everyone's expressions fell into brief astonishment, and a figure hurriedly rushed into the courtyard. Mu Qingcheng looked at a soldier and said softly: "Go and summon all the soldiers in the General's Mansion and come to see the commander. !”
"According to the order!"
A look of excitement appeared on the soldier's face, and he hurriedly ran out of the courtyard. Ning Fan had a bit of a wry smile on his face. This woman rushed in all the way, wasn't she afraid of Liao Sicheng jumping over the wall?
However, it doesn't matter. The people who come to the general's mansion tonight can be regarded as the strongest lineup.
In the bedroom, Liao Sicheng was tossing and turning on the bed. The people outside had not yet returned from sending messages. Counting the time, it was almost time!
There won't be any accidents, right?
"General?"
A graceful woman next to her put her jade finger on Liao Sicheng's shoulder, her eyes full of confusion.
"The slave... is a little itchy..."
"go away!"
Liao Sicheng was upset at the moment. He pushed the beauty next to him away, walked directly out of the bed, took off a coat, and said coldly: "I am not feeling well tonight. You can sleep on your own!"
After saying that, he was about to walk out of the dormitory. He heard noisy footsteps, and Liao Sicheng's heart sank. When he walked out of the dormitory, he saw figures running one after another.
"stop!"
"Why are you so panicked?"
"General...general!"
"His Majesty is visiting the General's Mansion in person, please come and see him as soon as possible!"
"Wha...what!"
Liao Sicheng only felt that his legs were a little weak, and his heart felt as if he had been hit hard by a sledgehammer, and he stood there in a daze.
"Your Majesty...Why are you here at this time?"
"Could it be... no!"
"This is impossible!"
Liao Sicheng only felt that his legs were extremely heavy. When he came back to his senses, he looked at the few cronies beside him, with a fierce look in his eyes: "You two, go to the military camp to transfer the personal guards and come back to escort us!"
"You, go out immediately and tell Liao Song that they will never be allowed to return to the city!"
"promise!"
After making arrangements, Liao Sicheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and walked toward the front hall.
In the main hall, almost all the soldiers from the General's Mansion gathered here. Mu Qingcheng was sitting at the top, showing no anger and self-importance. His aura swept over him, and all the soldiers around him were bowing their heads and standing in awe.
"tread!"
"tread!"
Liao Sicheng walked into the hall with heavy steps. When he saw Mu Qingcheng's figure, he trembled and hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to salute: "General Liao Sicheng, please see my emperor, long live my emperor!"
"Get flat!"
Mu Qingcheng looked calm, and after looking at Liao Sicheng for a while, he said softly: "How many years has Liao Aiqing been here in Shiyuan City?"
"Your Majesty, it's been more than three years!"
"Um!"
A smile appeared on Mu Qingcheng's face, and she said gently: "General Liao guarded one side of Dali for me. You have worked hard and achieved great results. Thank you for your hard work!"
"The general will be entrusted with your Majesty's orders. It is your duty to be loyal to Your Majesty and serve the imperial court."
"good!"
Mu Qingcheng stood up slowly, walked up to Liao Sicheng, and said softly: "I intend to add more burdens to General Liao and hand over the military talisman. Come back to Beijing with me tomorrow!"
"His Majesty!?"
When Liao Sicheng heard that Mu Qingcheng asked him to hand over the military talisman, he couldn't hold back any longer, with a look of panic on his face.
"how?"
"Is it possible that General Liao will resist the decree?"
"No...don't dare!"
Liao Sicheng knelt on the ground, already at a loss of consciousness, and his heart was pounding like gongs and drums.
"According to my decree, Liao Sicheng has resigned from the post of guard general of Shiyuan City and has another appointment!"
"The 60,000 defenders of Shiyuan City will be temporarily led by Xi Xiongtu to take over the city defense!"
Mu Qingcheng opened the golden mouth directly, and all the soldiers in the palace knelt down one after another. Xi Xiongtu bowed respectfully to Mu Qingcheng: "My lord, I obey the order!"
"Hand over the Tiger Talisman!"
"yes……"
Liao Sicheng's psychological defense had completely collapsed. He took out the tiger charm from his arms and held it up with trembling hands.
Xi Xiongtu took it from his hand and looked at Mu Qingcheng with a hint of inquiry.
"Take over the defense of Ishihara Castle immediately!"
"According to the order!"
Seeing Mu Qingcheng's thunderous methods, Ning Fan also showed a bit of surprise on his face. If it were him who took action, the General's Mansion would inevitably turn into a river of blood.
He is worthy of being the king of a country. In terms of methods, he seems to be better than himself.
If she was carried back to Huainan, wouldn't she have another right-hand man?
"General Liao, I heard that you have close contacts with the Nanman?"
"I heard that you started doing business?"
Now that the overall situation was settled, Mu Qingcheng relaxed and returned to his upper position. He looked at Liao Sicheng with a calm expression and a calm tone.
"Your Majesty, I will be wronged."
"Unjustly accused?"
Mu Qingcheng looked at the soldiers on the side and said softly: "Where is the quartermaster of Shiyuan City?"
"Go and summon him!"
"promise!"
Not long after, Shuofang walked into the hall with eager steps. When he saw Mu Qingcheng, his heart sank, and he went forward and knelt down: "Your Majesty, I want to impeach the general of Shiyuan City, Liao Sicheng!"
"Liao Sicheng relied on the fact that he was the commander-in-chief of a city, and coerced his subordinates, secretly mobilized grain and fodder, and collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country."
"Your Majesty, please seek justice!"
As soon as these words came out, not only Liao Sicheng was stunned, but even Ning Fan on the side was a little dumbfounded.
"you……"
"You bastard, it's obviously you who tricked me into doing business with the Nanman, and the informants are all yours!"
"You are so slanderous?"
Seeing the two people biting each other, Mu Qingcheng shook his head in disappointment. How lucky he was that the southeastern (southwest of Dayu, southeast of Dali) border had not fallen in the hands of these two weirdos for three years!
