He was praised by Zhang Shou as being brave and mighty, upright and rigorous. He came from the Ruiqi Battalion in the capital and served as the commander of the right battalion.
Although Hua Qi introduced himself like this in public, he had lost his credibility because of the previous incident. It was not until Xiong Wei showed the badge of the commander of the left camp of the Ruiqi Battalion and pointed out that he had just been recommended by the Duke of Chu and transferred back from Xuanfu that the frightened children of the nobles believed him.
This time, even the few noble sons who were unhappy because they didn't catch up with the big scene of capturing the rebels last night all felt that it was fortunate that Zhu Ying simply and roughly drugged them last night. They were scared before the real fight today. If they really witnessed or even encountered the fierce battle last night, they might be held back...
At this moment when everyone was still frightened, Zhang Chen couldn't help but grab Lu Sanlang.
"Lu Zhutou, did you realize that something was wrong a long time ago, so you suddenly covered my mouth? You, you fool, used to pretend to be stupid in the capital, but now you are suddenly gifted in mathematics. How many things are you hiding from us?"
Lu Sanlang had been hiding his incompetence for so many years, so of course he wanted to show off now. However, Zhang Shou had already said all the reasons he could come up with. He could only say unhappily, "Who told you not to observe carefully? You didn't even notice this little flaw. Didn't you say before that no one is afraid of anyone, and if the sky falls, we will all stand together. What is there to be afraid of? The young lady and the young master were here just now!"
After these words were spoken, not only Zhang Chen, but also a lot of people around him were speechless.
Zhu Ying aside, the eldest lady is fearless, but Zhang Shou is just a boy who grew up in the countryside...
Zhang Wu immediately coughed dryly: "How can we be compared with the young master? If the young master was not a master of foresight, how could Master Ge, who is known as the expert in identifying a thousand-mile horse, accept the young master as his last disciple!"
"That's right..."
Zhang Shou saw Zhu Ying pestering Xiong Wei not far away, asking him all kinds of questions, but Zhu Ying didn't know anything. He was getting upset and planned to go up and try it himself, but when he heard Zhang Wu and others around him agreeing with the topic raised by Lu Sanlang, he had to stop.
"Don't make me sound like Zhuge Liang. If I was really so sure, I would have listened to Mr. Hua Qi and would not have told Mr. Yang and a few villagers to hide the twenty or so rebels we captured last night. When Commander Xiong entered the village, his words and actions did not seem like those of a vicious criminal. Who knew it would be a false alarm?"
"Stop talking nonsense and go find some villagers to find Yang Laoguan and his men. The captives from last night should be handed over."
Lu Sanlang came up immediately, and the little eyes on his chubby face blinked gently, which was inexplicably a little cute: "Young sir, if you just hand him over, won't that be giving credit to Xiong Wei for nothing?"
Zhang Shou saw that many of the dandies showed expressions of approval, and he couldn't help but sneer: "That heroic commander is obviously good at managing the army, otherwise he wouldn't be able to lead such a disciplined cavalry. He would never do such a thing. Besides, don't you underestimate yourselves? Who in this world dares to steal your credit?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the playboys who had been trembling with fear and even nearly wet their pants immediately straightened their backs.
