"Outside Luoyang City, a large number of monsters were found haunting them."

"Your Majesty has an order. Three provinces and six ministries, five prisons and nine temples, sixteen guards in the southern government, and ten armies in the northern government, all officials must arrive at their posts within half an hour, and there is no reason to delay."

Because of Lin Shan's loud shout just now, the scene was silent, so everyone in the VIP seat could hear the red-armored knight's words clearly, including Ye Yunhai not far away.

Hearing that a large number of monsters appeared, and it was under broad daylight, everyone was startled. They stood up from their seats in unison, with cold sweat breaking out from behind. They are all thinking that there must be no mistakes in their own area. If something happens, it will be the fault of the whole family.

"Nephew Ye Xian, I'm on official business, so I won't eat your wedding wine. I will apologize to the old general first, and then come to pay my respects after the incident." The servant of the Ministry of Rites looked at the people around him, and explained to Ye Yunhai, Then he immediately walked towards the door, his footsteps in a hurry.

As if rehearsed, a group of people rushed into the general's mansion one after another, and then left like a storm without the slightest hesitation.

All the monsters ran to the door of the house to run wild, who dares to drink wedding wine here, can you feel at ease.

Ye Yunhai stood at the front of the banquet, his face was gloomy, his chest heaved and heaved, and his eyes were about to burst into flames. On the day of his wedding, such a thing happened unexpectedly.

Before paying homage, most of the guests left.

Ye Yunhai can guarantee that within an hour, he will become the laughing stock of the entire Luoyang City.

"Yunhai, will the matter of borrowing soldiers be feasible? Give me a promise. I only need a thousand soldiers, and I want it now." Although Lin Shan could see that now is not the time to say this, he had no choice but to do so. Human life is at stake.

"Borrowing soldiers?" Ye Yunhai stared at Lin Shan, "Did those monsters appear near Absolute Sword Villa?"

Ye Yunhai is not stupid. Based on the information just now and Lin Shan's abnormal behavior, it is very likely that those monsters appeared at his door. Otherwise, with Lin Shan's disposition, he would never have made such a strange request today, which is totally unreasonable.

It doesn't make sense!

Lin Shan lowered his head and thought for a moment, then sighed, "That's right, I just received the Thousand Miles Sound Transmission Sword from Senior Brother Shu Shan, Jue Jian Villa has been besieged by beasts at this moment, with heavy casualties, I hope I can rush back to rescue as soon as possible. But I alone It's just a drop in the bucket when people go back, it won't do anything, so I can only ask you to borrow troops, you and I are already in-laws, so we should help each other."

"How many monsters are there?" Ye Yunhai asked.

"I don't know." Lin Shan replied.

"Are you sure that a thousand soldiers and horses can clear the siege?"

"I'm not sure, but it's better than nothing."

"It's ridiculous, if you can't solve the siege, then I will die if I lend you a thousand soldiers and horses!" Ye Yunhai said coldly, "You also said just now that the mountain is surrounded by monsters. You can't ruin the lives of your brothers in vain for your own selfish desires."

After thinking for a while, Ye Yunhai asked again, "I'm curious, why those monsters besiege your Absolute Sword Villa during the daytime, is there anything they are interested in in your place? Monsters are like people, they have nothing to gain , those beasts will not besiege you for no reason."

After all, he was the youngest Duqi school lieutenant in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the son of the general's mansion, and after a little thought, he found the key to the problem.

Ye Yunhai even suspected that there must be some priceless treasure hidden in the Absolute Sword Villa.

Lin Shan is an old Jianghu, so he couldn't hear the implication, "Yunhai, don't think too much, this time my father-in-law was completely framed."

Having said that, Lin Shan scanned the audience, and soon found Ye Que and Qian Shuxiao in a corner of the courtyard, and then pointed out, "It's him, I'm sure he used some means to lure the monsters to attack I, Absolute Sword Villa, or he himself is a spy of the Yaozu."

"Monster spies?"

Ye Yunhai froze for a moment, followed Lin Shan's fingers and looked over, and then saw Ye Que standing with his hands behind his back.

It's still the same calm and calm expression, just like when I first came to Luoyang a few months ago, and the first time I came to the gate of the General's Mansion.

"Ye Que?" Ye Yunhai was a little surprised when he saw that the spies of the demon clan that Lin Shan mentioned were actually Ye Que.

A novel app that has been running stably for many years, comparable to the old version of the book chasing artifact, the source-changing app used by old bookworms, huanyuanapp.org

"You know him?" Lin Shan raised his eyebrows and asked suspiciously.

"I know him? How could I know him? Since you are so sure that he is a spy of the Yaozu." Ye Yunhai's expression changed, and he waved his hand.

"Come on!"

"Get it for me!"

Ye Yunhai yelled angrily, and soon a dozen guards in gold and iron armor rushed towards Ye Que.

The guests who were still in the mansion were opened today. First, the father-in-law scolded his son-in-law angrily, then the daughter-in-law taught him a lesson, then most of the guests left, and now there was a monster spies.

What kind of wedding is this? It's clearly an opera, even better than an opera.

Seeing is better than hearing a hundred times, and everyone has opened their eyes today.

"Brother Ye, what should we do?" Qian Shuxiao asked quietly standing behind Ye Que.

"Just play it by ear. You don't have to worry about me. This general's mansion can't trap me. Their attention is on me now. You can just sneak away later. Our goal has been achieved today. I will marry you now." See if they can't get married." Ye Que didn't move his lips, and Qian Shuxiao heard a voice.

It's too late to say it.

Just when the guards in the mansion were about to approach Ye Que, a majestic voice came from the backyard.

"stop!"

The voice is not loud, and it looks a little old, and even a little breathless, but the majesty and domineering in that voice make people feel daunting.

"Clang, clang, clang..."

There was a sound of iron rods hitting the ground one after another, and soon, an old man with white hair came out slowly with the support of a noble lady. It can be seen that the old man's legs and feet are not very good, and he needs to use the leading crutch in his hand to move forward slowly. Behind the two was another old man who looked like he was the housekeeper of the General's Mansion.

"Old General Ye!"

"Second lady!"

The guests at the nearest table with people subconsciously stood up and exclaimed. In the past six months, Ye Zhengru has been rarely seen in Luoyang City. He didn't even show up at the monthly court meeting. It is said that he is already terminally ill.

Looking at it now, it is indeed a dying year!

"Old General Ye, please slow down, it's windy outside, why don't you sit down and rest first." The more intelligent guest hurried forward to greet him with concern.

Ye Zhengru glanced at this person, didn't speak, and still walked forward slowly. Xiaohua Ting beside her was dignified at this time, and there was no trace of arrogance at all.

Walking all the way to Ye Yunhai's side, right in front of the entire wedding scene, Ye Zhengru turned around and stopped, and then slowly glanced at the people present.

"I heard that monsters were found outside Luoyang City?" Ye Zhengru asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, Father." Ye Yunhai replied softly with his head lowered.

"Then what are you doing now?"

"Today is my son's wedding, and we are going to worship soon."

"wedding?"

Ye Zhengru's voice raised slightly, and then he poked the ground twice fiercely with the crutch in his hand.

"I can't wait to have a wedding! You are the Captain of Duqi of the Ye Family Army, responsible for guarding the safety of Luoyang City. Is that how you do it?"

"Is it the children's personal relationship that matters? Or the country? Can't you tell?" Ye Zhengru gave Ye Yunhai a hard look as he spoke.

With just one glance, Ye Yunhai was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.

After speaking of Ye Yunhai, Ye Zhengru looked at Ye Que, the spies of the monster clan in Lin Shankou.

The same glance, but in Ye Que's eyes, there are mixed feelings, "Is this man my father?"

(Today's first update, there will definitely be more later.)
