060. Two imperial edicts(2/2)
Two more days later, the Emperor Chu sent the Crown Prince Chu Mingheng and the Eighth Prince Chu Mingyin to Qingyun City together. They asked them to bring an imperial edict, but the imperial edict was locked in the box and was under the supervision of the Emperor Chu's personal guards.
The order from Emperor Chu to Chu Mingheng and Chu Mingyin was that when Luo Yan led his army to capture the ten cities of Beihu, he would take out the imperial edict and give it to him.
Everyone who knew about this, including Chu Mingheng and Chu Mingyin, believed that the imperial edict was to be crowned king for Luo Yan.
But Chu Mingyin was a little confused. What was Ye Ling doing? The thing was different from what he expected...
Ye Ling was busy practicing martial arts at this time, following the Beihu army and retreated every few days. When he encountered some troubles in his practice, Ye Ling asked the mute slave for advice. The old and the young got along very well.
In half a month, Luo Yan went to the six cities of Beihu, breaking the record of "Yun Yao" in military achievements, and has become a new war god loved by everyone in the Southern Chu army.
After Luo Yan successfully captured the seventh city, he received a secret report and learned that Chu Mingheng and Chu Mingyin were sent by the Emperor of Chu and were already on the way to Qingyun City, and brought an imperial edict.
"What is in that imperial edict?" Luo Yan asked.
The person who reported the message said: "It is said to be the will to be the king of the master, but the emperor said that he would wait until the master conquered ten cities before promulgating the decree."
Luo Yan's expression changed slightly: "Why are there ten cities?" He had a talk with the people of Beihu. Is this a coincidence?
The person who reported the news said: "Master, Yun Yao was named King when he was defeated ten cities in a row."
Luo Yan smiled: "Yes, why did I forget this?" He thought too much, and Emperor Chu could not know the deal between him and Beihu.
The next day, Luo Yan stepped up his offensive, because as the end of the year approached, he would get the throne he was thinking about before the New Year!
When Luo Yan led his army to capture the nine cities, Chu Mingheng and Chu Mingyin arrived at Qingyun City.
Two days later, Luo Yan captured the tenth city of Beihu.
Ye Ling was taken by Gui Hao and retreated to the Chongming City of Northern Hu. She knew that the battle was over.
Beihu She abandoned ten cities as bait, not nine or eleven, not to make up integers, but because Chongming City is a new border town carefully selected by Beihu, occupying an excellent defensive terrain.
Luo Yan led the soldiers of Nanchu to attack Chongming City, but naturally he couldn't defeat him, so he arranged for the army to rest, and he led a team of troops back to Qingyun City.
The battle between the north and the south was shocked.
Not only the people of Southern Chu were excited, but even the people from Xixia and Eastern Jin were lamenting that Ye Sheng died in Nan Chu, and Yun Yao came out. Yun Yao died, and Luo Yan came again.
The soldiers who did not know the truth in the Beihu naturally were unwilling to accept it and could not understand why Nan Chu could always hit the key points in their defense as if they were clear about it?
But Gui Hao, who knew the truth, and several other generals, were not affected at all. The Northern Hu Emperor knew about this from beginning to end. They even thought that the people of Nan Chu were ridiculous, so they made Nan Chu happy for a few days first. The big fish had already taken the bait. Next, Bei Hu swallowed Nan Chu, just around the corner!
It was not yet a month, but Gui Hao was idle. At night, he came to see Ye Ling again.
Ye Ling was playing the piano, and the sound of the piano was like crying and complaining.
Gui Hao sat there listening, looking at Ye Ling's slim back, planning to take Ye Ling back to Beihu Capital tomorrow. After arriving in the capital, Ye Ling's poison should be cured. He wanted to hold a big banquet, invite guests, and tell the world that he had a stunning beauty.
The maid from Beihu sent milk tea to the door, Mo Zhu took it, brought it in, and poured a cup of Guihao.
Gui Hao was enjoying the sound of the piano and the beauty, drinking milk tea, and feeling comfortable.
Mo Zhu went out and closed the door from outside, saying to the two maids of Beihu: "The general said that we should all retreat and not disturb us. You go outside the yard and wait. No one is allowed to come in before dawn."
The two maids of Beihu looked at each other and smiled, as if they understood something, nodded repeatedly and walked out of the yard.
In the room, Gui Hao felt that he was watching the beauty under the light. The more he looked, the more charming he became. He thought that Ye Ling just couldn't look at her face and was fine. He was in a good mood today, so he was not as good as...
Gui Hao smiled on his ugly face and stood up and walked towards Ye Ling.
Ye Ling seemed to be unaware of anything and was still playing the piano.
Just as Gui Hao's hand was about to catch Ye Ling, his body shook and he fell to the ground!
The sound of the piano suddenly stopped suddenly. The two North Hu maids outside the courtyard exchanged tacit eyes again.
Ye Ling grabbed a piece of cloth from Feng Yinqin, turned around and blocked Gui Hao's mouth!
Gui Hao was hit by the soft muscle powder made by Feng Buyi. The amount of medicine was very large. He was weak and collapsed on the ground, his eyes were protruding, and he stared at Ye Ling tightly, wishing he could tear her!
Ye Ling wore a mask and chuckled: "General Gui, get to know each other again. My name is Ye Ling."
Ye Ling finished speaking, and pulled out the Tianxie Sword from Feng Yinqin, and cut off Gui Hao's right arm holding the sword with one sword! He quickly cut off Gui Hao's tendons and feet!
Gui Hao's mouth was blocked, his body was weak, but he could not make any sound. He curled up on the ground and trembled continuously.
Mo Zhu entered the room, hugged Feng Yinqin, quickly walked to the bedside, lifted the bed tent, took out the luggage that had been prepared, and Feng Yinqin was ready.
Ye Ling pulled the bed tent and wrapped Gui Hao up, and also wrapped his broken arm in.
Mo Zhu lifted Gui Hao, shook his hand and carried it on his shoulder, and pushed open the rear window: "Master, go quickly!"
Mo Zhu knew that there was someone protecting Ye Ling in the dark, but she had never seen the Ya Nu, nor the Qixing. However, the Ya Nu and Qixing had already cleared all the obstacles on Ye Ling's way out in advance.
The Northern Hu army had just been "defeated" and its morale was sluggish. Chongming City's defense was loose. Ye Ling and Mo Zhu took Gui Hao and under the secret cover of Ya Nu and Qixing, it did not take much effort to leave smoothly, and then headed towards Qingyun City as quickly as possible.
When the Beihu people discovered that Gui Hao was missing, it was tomorrow dawn. Ye Ling had already run away.
Qingyun City.
Chu Mingheng and Chu Mingyin wanted to kill each other along the way, but with the Chu Emperor's confidant, the two brothers appeared to be friendly and respectful, and in harmony.
The 25th day of the twelfth lunar month.
Luo Yan and a team of people rushed back to Qingyun City. When he entered the city gate, he heard a cheer, and everyone was shouting, General is back!
Luo Yan was ecstatic in his heart, but pretended to be modest and serious, and rushed to see the people from Chu Jing.
"See Your Highness the Crown Prince, and see Your Highness the Eighth Prince!" Luo Yan knelt down as soon as he saw Chu Mingheng and Chu Mingyin.
Chu Mingheng hurriedly came to help: "General Luo, you don't have to be too polite! You have made great contributions to Nan Chu!"
Chu Mingyin also smiled and said, "Yes, General Luo is a hero of Nan Chu and a pillar of the country."
Luo Yan lowered his head: "Your Highness the Crown Prince and the Eighth Prince have been over-reputable, I just did what I should do."
"Haha, General Luo, don't be humble. My father specially ordered me and the eighth emperor to come and announce the edict. General Luo, please accept the edict!"
A hint of joy flashed in Luo Yan's eyes and he quickly knelt down.
The box before Chu Mingheng and Chu Mingyin was opened only now. Both of them looked in and were stunned for a moment because there were two imperial edicts inside.
"The Emperor said, please ask His Highness the Crown Prince to read this imperial edict to General Luo." Emperor Chu's personal guard took out one of the bright yellow scrolls and handed them to Chu Mingheng.
"The other way?" Chu Mingyin couldn't help asking.
"When the first imperial edict is read, the eighth prince will know."
Chu Mingyin intuitioned that something was wrong, but Chu Mingheng and Luo Yan, who were kneeling on the ground, did not realize that there was anything wrong.
Chu Mingheng held up the imperial edict and opened it. When he saw the content inside, his expression changed drastically, and he was simply suspicious of his eyes!
"This..." Chu Mingheng looked shocked and suspicious.
"Your Highness, please announce the order!" The Emperor Chu guards said respectfully. After saying that, a team of Jinyugu appeared at the door.
"Luo Yan received the order!" Chu Mingheng calmed down and began to read it.
"The rebel Luo Yan plotted to murder General Ye Sheng five years ago, but now he colluded with Beihu and conspired to treason. The crime should be punished! Take it down immediately and escort back to Beijing!"
Chu Mingheng, who was reading the imperial edict, looked shocked, and Chu Mingyin, who was listening next to him, opened his mouth wide, and Luo Yan on the ground was completely stunned!
"How is this possible? This is impossible! Slander! This is slander!" Luo Yan got up from the ground and wanted to rush out, "The tyrant! The cunning rabbit is dead and the lackey is cooked! I don't accept it!" Although he said that, Luo Yan was panicked. He knew that the matter was exposed! He had only one thought, escape!
The Golden Feather Guard guarding outside the door blocked Luo Yan's way. Luo Yan's martial arts skills were not very high, so he was quickly taken down. He locked his hands and feet with iron chains, and pressed them down and knelt down again!
"What the hell is going on..." Chu Mingyin said to himself, and he was a little confused for a moment. Could it be that his father was really afraid that Luo Yan's skills would shock the master, so he would kill him? It wouldn't be so?
When Chu Mingheng saw a line of small words on the imperial edict, he read it: "The second imperial edict is awarded to the Princess War by the Eighth Prince... Princess War? Ye Ling? Where is Ye Ling? What's going on?"
Chu Mingheng was completely confused. Chu Mingyin took the imperial edict from him. After seeing it, he was going to get the second imperial edict in the box.
"The Eighth Prince, the Emperor said that when the Princess Zhan appears, he will announce the order." The Emperor Chu guard spoke.
