061. Nanchu female general, love it or not(1/2)
Chu Mingyin looked up and saw a familiar figure walking in. He knew that this was Ye Ling, but he was puzzled. Why did Ye Ling wear a mask on his face?
Mo Zhu then came in, threw Gui Hao on the ground, and stood behind Ye Ling. Gui Hao was wrapped tightly, like a cocoon, and he could only tell that he was a human.
"General Luo, isn't it a surprise to see me?" Ye Ling sneered, raised his foot and kicked Luo Yan hard to the ground, "You are so heartless, I will definitely make you die ugly!"
Chu Mingyin frowned, took out the second imperial edict from the box, and said loudly: "Ye Ling receives the imperial edict!" He wanted to see what was written in the imperial edict.
Ye Ling knelt down, Chu Mingyin opened the imperial edict, looked shocked, and was silent for a moment before he began to read it.
After Chu Mingyin finished reciting the imperial edict, Chu Mingheng said in disbelief: "What? Let her be the commander of Nan Chu? Why?"
Ye Ling curled her lips slightly and raised her hands: "Ye Ling answered the order and thanked the Lord for his kindness."
Chu Mingyin handed over the imperial edict to Ye Ling.
Ye Ling stood up, looked at Chu Mingheng, and asked with a smile: "Your Highness, you haven't seen each other for some days, are you in good health?"
Chu Mingheng's face turned black in an instant!
He was coveting Ye Ling's beauty, but he couldn't see it. On the eve of Ye Ling's departure from Beijing, Chu Mingheng secretly asked the owner of Anle Tower Su Tang to capture Ye Ling for him. But he didn't know what Su Tang was crazy about. Not only did he not do it, he actually fed him poison and ruined him! He was in a state of anxiety recently because of his physical problems and almost collapsed!
When Chu Mingheng heard Ye Ling's words, what else did Chu Mingheng not understand? He thought that Su Tang was crazy because he was crazy. It turned out to be related to Ye Ling! What Su Tang did was probably Ye Ling's instructions! At least, Ye Ling knew about it!
Chu Mingyin looked at Ye Ling and then Chu Mingheng. He felt that there was a big secret between them, but he couldn't guess what it would be.
Chu Mingheng was furious, but he was still awake. He knew that he could never offend Ye Ling anymore. Once Ye Ling spread his hidden diseases, everything would be ruined!
So, Chu Mingheng looked at Ye Ling and said, "Congratulations to General Ye!" No matter how he heard it, he felt gritting his teeth. After saying that, he sat back and picked up the teacup. Even though he was full of questions, he stopped talking.
Chu Mingyin looked inexplicably, and his eyes looked at Ye Ling very complicated: "Ye Ling, what's going on?" He and Ye Ling met in Chu Jing for the last time, and his confession was rejected. Ye Ling gave the reason that he was too ugly and incompetent...
"This matter..." Ye Ling lowered her eyes, looked at the imperial edict in her hand, and said lightly, "I don't want to tell it twice. Your Highness, the Eighth Prince, please come with me."
Luo Yan led his army to "attack" the tenth city of Beihu, named Hucheng. At this time, 80% of the troops in Qingyun City were resting in Hucheng.
A loud trumpet sounded at the north gate of Qingyun City, and the soldiers and the people in the city ran over after hearing the sound.
The soldiers lined up under the city, and the people surrounded him and talked a lot.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince and the Eighth Prince are here! It was the Emperor who asked them to be the king of General Luo!"
"General Luo is back today. Your Highness the Crown Prince may want to announce the reward to him in public!"
"It should be! General Luo is our new war god in Nanchu! He is even more powerful than the war king!"
"I don't know what General Luo's title will be?"
...
Everyone said, looking forward to it, waiting for Luo Yan, the hero of Nanchu, to appear on the city tower.
There was suddenly a movement on the high city tower.
A man, hanging from the rope, hung down from above!
Everyone below was shocked! When they looked closely, wasn’t that face the new war god Luo Yan in their minds?
A general couldn't help but shout: "Why should we treat General Luo like this?"
Then, the doubts were heard like a tide, rising one after another, and getting louder and louder.
Luo Yan was still awake. He shouted loudly: "The cunning rabbit dies, and the lackeys are cooked! There is no reason to be a crime to be punished! I made great contributions to Nan Chu, but I was humiliated and slandered so much! I don't accept it! I don't accept it!"
The soldiers and the people below heard Luo Yan's crying accusation, and the voices of doubt and objection became louder.
The drums shook the sky, and the voices gradually weakened.
When Chu Mingheng looked as if he was ashen on the city tower, the soldiers and the people became even more excited, shouting and strongly demanding that Luo Yan be released.
Chu Mingheng raised his hand: "Stop talking!" After the words, he read the content of the first imperial edict loudly in public.
However, the two words that directly convicted Luo Yan in the imperial edict did not convince the public.
"General Luo's murder of General Ye? What about the evidence? There is no evidence, it is to be a crime!" one person shouted.
"General Luo colluded with Beihu to treason? It's ridiculous! Is the way to treason is to lead troops to capture the ten cities of Beihu? If that's the case, I want to treason!" Another man yelled.
For a moment, the crowd was excited.
The soldiers even took out their weapons and were filled with righteous indignation, and looked like they wanted to sacrifice their best to seek justice for Luo Yan. The masses were very brave in resisting together and taking on their guilt.
Chu Mingheng looked behind him and said coldly: "Ye Ling, you can explain it yourself!"
Everyone saw a woman in white walking to Chu Mingheng, wearing a silver mask on her face, and her identity was unknown.
"Everyone is at ease. The words of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just now were the emperor's will. The emperor's wiseness will never wrongly accuse a good person. Therefore, we will give General Luo Yan a chance to prove his innocence."
The cold female voice came into everyone's ears, and the angry people looked at each other and gradually became quiet.
Everyone thought that Luo Yan would talk next, so Luo Yan swallowed his saliva and made up his mind to refuse to admit those charges. He didn't believe that Ye Ling could have any evidence?!
As a result, the next moment, Ye Ling raised his hand and another person hung down from the city tower.
Unlike Luo Yan who was hung with his hands, this person was hung with one hand, and a broken arm and a knife were tied to the rope.
"This is the commander of the Northern Hu, Gui Hao!" Ye Ling said slowly.
The whole audience was in an uproar! He was a slim figure, a hooked nose, and a scar on the right face spread from the corners of his eyes to his jaw. It was indeed him!
The rope swayed, and Gui Hao's body turned around in the air and faced Luo Yan.
Luo Yan saw Gui Hao's ugly old face clearly, his eyes were protruding, and his whole body trembled. He couldn't even say a word if he wanted to clamor for excuse!
It was only then that Chu Mingheng and Chu Mingyin realized that the person who was brought over by Mo Zhu was actually the commander of the Northern Hu!
"General Gui, it's your turn to speak." Ye Ling said coldly.
Gui Hao was awake, his face was as white as paper, but his eyes were full of desire to survive. He opened his mouth and said, "Luo Yan of Nanchu easily captured the ten cities of Beihu so easily, and his troops were like gods. It was all illusion! Because I had already handed the defense maps of the ten cities to him personally!"
Everyone was stunned and couldn't believe what they heard, because it was too incredible! Why did Beihu do such a thing?
Gui Hao continued: "This is the first plan for Beihu to plan for Southern Chu! Use ten cities to let Luo Yan be trusted by the Emperor of Chu and loved by the people. Then, use these handles to control him for the use of Beihu, and annex the Southern Chu within next year!"
Chu Mingyin's eyes condensed. So that's it! He was thinking before, if Luo Yan was so talented, why did he not show off for so many years before? He went to ten cities in a row, and now it seems that it is a bit abnormal! The so-called complete plan is actually cheating!
If someone who can’t fight, get the opponent’s defense map and knows clearly where the weak is. If the opponent’s main general cooperates in the show, he can win the battle all the time!
The soldiers below all participated in the battle not long ago. Now they looked at Luo Yan's eyes and looked suspicious. Looking back, when fighting ten cities, Luo Yan relied on "using troops like a god" every time, and calculated that Beihu was the weakest defense, and Beihu was retreating. Logically speaking, if the city changed, the defense was constantly changing, but Luo Yan could always predict the future.
What’s strange is that Nan Chu won such a great victory, but from beginning to end, he failed to kill a general from Northern Hu! The overall strength of the Northern Hu army is much weaker than before!
Some doubts are not mentioned, but when you mention them, they become more and more suspicious!
No one said anything about Luo Yan's grievances. Looking at him was not disappointed, but deep hatred! Luo Yan, for the sake of fame and fortune, should have been cut into pieces without regard for the righteousness of the country!
Gui Hao spoke again: "In order to gain the trust of Beihu, Luo Yan claimed that he had plotted to murder Ye Sheng five years ago! Yan Ming put a chronic poison in Ye Sheng's food, which caused Ye Sheng to get poisoned on the battlefield. His strength was not as good as before, so he was forced to fall off the cliff and die!"
Ye Ling's eyes turned cold!
When the soldiers below heard this, they were excited again, not for Luo Yan, but for Ye Sheng, the former most beloved general in Nanchu!
"Kill this wolf-hearted thing!"
"He was promoted by General Ye, and he actually did such a thing as a pig or a dog! Shameless and sinister!"
"Kill him!"
...
The rope hanging on Luo Yan suddenly trembled violently. Luo Yan struggled in the air and shouted: "It's not me! I didn't! I didn't murder Ye Sheng! I was a lie to the Beihu people!"
No one believed Luo Yan's words. But when Ye Ling heard this, he suspected that there might be something else in it.
Luo Yan wanted to cooperate with the Beihu people and revealed that he had plotted to murder Ye Sheng. Such a big handle was given to the Beihu people, and he was full of sincerity. Therefore, it is not impossible to say that he did not do it but fabricated this lie.
Luo Yan was already in death for death, so there was no point in defending him. Ye Ling planned to try him carefully later.
Then, Gui Hao told in detail how many times he had met Luo Yan, when and where, and what he had talked about.
Gui Hao's words, bit by bit, hammered Luo Yan to death!
"I am Ye Ling, Ye Sheng's daughter." Ye Ling spoke again.
Someone below shouted "Princess War". Everyone looked up at the woman wearing a silver mask. They were puzzled for a moment. She was obviously given to Beihu. Many people thought she would definitely die. She was back to Qingyun City at this time. What did she do during this period?
"I was sent to Beihu on the surface, but in fact, I was in the emperor's secret order to assassinate the commander of Beihu Gui Hao!"
Ye Ling's words shocked the audience again!
"But after I arrived at Qingyun City, I noticed that Luo Yan was suspicious and heard the secret talks about his last meeting with Gui Hao. He said in person that he had plotted to murder his father and agreed with Gui Hao that Beihu would send him ten cities. After he succeeded, it would be more beneficial to Beihu." Ye Ling said loudly.
Luo Yan looked desperate. At this moment, he finally realized where he was defeated! It turned out that Ye Ling had already known everything and informed Emperor Chu! This is the origin of the two imperial edicts!
"I didn't choose to expose Luo Yan at that time. While notifying the emperor, I kept my troops still. I went to Beihu as planned to avoid alarming the snake. The reason is very simple. The Beihu barbarians have such a big deal to send us ten cities in Nanchu. Why don't we not? Use Luo Yan to easily get the ten cities of Beihu, then take him down, and slap Beihu barbarians hard! This is the truth!"
Ye Ling was stating the facts, but the facts she said were shocking and then excited!
Originally, the soldiers and the people were thinking that Nan Chu's victory was an illusion, not achieved through real ability. The previous pride was now a little guilty.
But as soon as Ye Ling said this, everyone felt that winning would be a win. Nan Chu relied on the wisdom of the Princess War! He won without any effort! The North Hu barbarian's vicious plan became a huge joke!
The people of Nanchu not only don’t feel embarrassed about this kind of victory, but they all want to laugh three times! It’s so cool! It’s so satisfying!
Everyone's eyes looked at Ye Ling were very different from those before. They thought that this was indeed Ye Sheng's daughter and the wife of the King of War, and it was amazing!
