"Isn't my master's temperament too demanding?" After hearing this, Hou Shi sighed and said.
Feng Xian looked at Hou Shi and then said, "Master, if he doesn't want to listen to what Master has to say, then..."
As he said that, Fengxian turned his head and looked at Zhan You's grave. After a pause, he then said, "He wants to guard Master's grave for three months. After three months, he will go to Wugu City. Master, I think that would work.”
"Fengxian, my uncle knows that I want to repay my master's kindness. I am afraid that I will be defeated and return after the posthumous title Ruming Xiling. Then the King of Xiling will definitely blame this mistake on me and my master. If not, I will be there to help me." Master is guarding the grave, so I'm afraid he will be in a very dangerous situation, and my master will definitely not want to see me captured by the King of Xiling." Hou Shi sighed at that time, and then said Fengxian with serious words.
When showing off the mule, he wiped away his tears with the lapel of his clothes, and then said, "If not, his disciple would be uneasy."
"Fengxian, I don't have to be like this. After the limelight is over, it won't be the same if I make it up again." Hou Shi said by mistake to Fengxian at this time.
Seeing that Feng was silent, Hou Shi said again, "The thing that worried me the most in my master's heart before he left was me. Now if I insist on doing this, if something really happens, my master won't be at ease either." , let me think about it carefully."
Feng listened first, lowered his head and thought for a while, then nodded.
Immediately, he walked to Zhan Chuyou's grave first, then knelt down to the east and kowtowed to him a few times, "Master, when the frontier fortress is stabilized, I will definitely come to pay homage to my master."
After saying that, he kowtowed again, then stood up and walked to Hou Shi, then looked at Hou Shi and said, "Uncle, he is coming back to Wugu City with me."
"Well, good boy, let's go." Hou Shi nodded, then said, and the two of them walked towards the Dongling Military Camp.
At this time, in the frontier fortress camp.
General Li walked in at that time and immediately walked to Shuo Ling.
Shuo Ling raised his head at that time, looked at General Li and said, "Looking at General Li's face, I guess not many soldiers were killed this time."
"Shuohou guessed wrong. I just counted one thing. His officers and soldiers were injured and hundreds were injured. It can be said to be a great joy for Dongling!" General Li said with a smile at this time.
Shuo Ling nodded at that time, "How is General Cheng's injury?"
"Old Cheng, it's nothing serious. It's just that the previous wound has not completely healed. It was torn in the wrong battle just now. It can be recovered after a few more months of rest." General Li said at that time.
Then General Li asked Shuo Ling, "Shuohou, when will I return to the imperial city?"
"The bright moon will come back." Shuo Ling said at that time.
After hearing this, General Li walked forward and said, "Shuohou, since Mingyue and I have returned to the imperial city, he has something he needs Shuohou to convey to the emperor."
"What's the matter? General Li, please tell me." Shuo Ling looked at General Li and asked.
Then he saw the smile on General Li's face gradually disappear, and then sighed, "They won the battle at the frontier, so I should be happy, but the food and grass in the army may not last long. He had eight hundred Riga rushed back to the imperial city, but there was no response. I hope Shuohou will mention this to the emperor when he returns, after all, there are so many soldiers on the frontier."
"Since General Li rushed 800 miles back to the imperial city, it means that the emperor already knows that there is no military rations in the border fortress." Shuo Ling said to General Li at that time.
I saw General Li frowning after hearing this, and then said immediately, "Since the emperor knows this, why is there so little military rations coming now? If the Xiling Army hadn't found out that they had no military rations at the frontier, I'm afraid they wouldn't have directly Invasion, no matter what, with so many mouths opened by the frontier soldiers, we can’t just let everyone go through the winter like that.”
"It's an obvious fact that the imperial city's treasury is empty. The emperor must be thinking about it, and there's nothing he can do for a while." Shuo Ling said again at this time.
When General Li heard this, he couldn't help but frown, and then he said with obvious anger, "According to what Marquis Shuo said, isn't the emperor planning to prepare food and grass for the frontier? What should we do if there are so many soldiers at the frontier? We can't even eat. If it becomes a problem, how can we defend our country?"
"General Li, don't panic. When he was in charge of the flood in the capital, he knew something was fishy, so he asked people to secretly prepare food. According to time, it should be on its way to the frontier fortress now." Shuoling looked at this moment General Li said.
General Li looked at Shuo Ling with disbelief, "So, Lord Marquis, I have prepared military rations for the frontier soldiers?"
"Yes or no, Bu Nao..." Shuo Ling nodded and then changed his attitude.
Before Shuoling could finish speaking, General Li interrupted him and asked quickly, "What's the matter?"
"At that time, the grain and grass were collected privately by him, and he did not report it to the emperor, so..." Shuo Ling said to General Li at that time.
Before Shuo Ling could finish speaking, General Li nodded, "Don't worry Shuohou, he will never leak this matter. I didn't expect Shuohou to care so much about the frontier soldiers. He, Lao Li, was there to report to Shuohou on behalf of the frontier soldiers." Say thank you."
Does General Li know what to do in his heart? The emperor did not solve the problem of the shortage of military rations at the frontier fortress. Instead, he asked them to solve it. If this matter was not spread, the emperor's face would be tarnished. Invisibly, the mistake was made. Shuo Ling is also disadvantageous.
"General Li is being polite. The soldiers are holding on to the frontier, so they shouldn't have any worries. If he does this, he will also hurt the people of Dongling." Shuo Ling said at that time.
General Li nodded at this time, "Is it true that a tiger father has no dog son? Seeing Shuohou's current appearance reminds me of the old General Shuo who was dedicated to Dongling!"
"If you are dedicated to Dongling, you will die on the battlefield in the end!" Shuo Ling could not help but sneer at this time, and then said meaningfully.
Seeing what Shuo Ling said, General Li couldn't help but frown slightly, "Shuohou, if General Shuohou had not fallen into the enemy's trap at that time, I think General Shuo would not have..."
"Then does General Li know why my father fell into his enemy's trap?" Shuo Ling looked at General Li and asked.
General Li frowned slightly at that time and said, "We received false information. Everyone knew about it at the time."
"Then why did you receive false information?" Shuo Ling asked General Li at that time.
General Li frowned after hearing this. He didn't think much about that question at the time, but now that Jing Shuoling mentioned it, it was indeed full of doubts.
A warrior like General Shuo at that time would never use it if he didn't trust someone who had experienced it. And when he encountered an ambush on the way, he was obviously not prepared in advance.
Thinking of this, General Li couldn't help but frown. There must be another reason for the death of the old general Shuo.
General Li was about to ask Shuoling.
At that moment, Li Li walked in from outside, then crossed his legs and said, "Master Marquis, General Li."
"Well, everything is done?" Shuo Ling looked at Li Qiye and asked.
Li Qiye nodded at this time.
"What's going on next when King Xiling comes? Do you plan to return to Xiling when?" Shuo Ling then asked Mo Li.
I heard Mo Li say at that time, "Then the King of Xiling sent people to find Zhan You, and there is no sign of asking for the withdrawal of troops now."
"Shuohou, there is no need to worry. Mingyue and we can return to the imperial city normally. Now those weirdos have been completely eliminated. It will be a matter of time before King Xiling withdraws his troops, otherwise they will attack again. They will be sure of victory!" At that time, General Li next to me heard this and said.
Shuo Ling nodded at that time, and then said to General Li, "Now that he has an understanding of the situation, he will leave it to General Li to take over Donglai."
"Yes." General Li nodded.
Then Shuo Ling and Mo Li walked outside.
Outside Shuoling's tent.
At this time, Mo and Ye had been waiting inside for a long time.
As soon as they saw Shuo Ling's signal, they hurried over there.
At that time, they heard movement at the door, Mo and Ye glanced at each other, and then hid in the dark.
After seeing Fu Moli and their Marquis coming in, the two of them walked out of the darkness, then walked forward and bowed with their legs crossed, "Master Marquis, what do you want to ask them to come here this time?"
"Is there something important that we need to do? Remember, you can succeed and don't fail!" Shuo Ling walked aside and walked away, then looked at the two of them with cold eyes and said.
The two looked at each other at this time, and then nodded, "Master Marquis, please tell me, they will do their best!"
"I heard that the sons of King Xiling are now fighting for the position of prince. Isn't it very fierce!" Shuo Ling said at this time, with a sneer on his lips.
Mo Yuye nodded at this time, and then Jimo said, "Yes, Lord Marquis, it is indeed true. There is no crown prince in Xiling now, but the position of crown prince must be chosen among the three princes."
"Wrong, that's not the case. Before the expedition, the King of Xiling left a few words to Dongling. After he defeated Dongling, he would reveal his long-held position as the crown prince." Ye Nai said on the side.
After hearing this, Shuo Ling nodded. God could help him.
If he remembered correctly, those three people were the second prince, the fifth prince, and the third prince Lan Cangmo.
After his previous understanding, the ambition of the third prince Lan Cang Mo was more ambitious than the other two, so he planned to take advantage of the third prince Lan Cang Mo.
Thinking of that, Shuo Ling said at that time, "Now he needs us to sneak into the Xiling Palace and tell the third prince Lan Cangmo about the defeat of Xiling so that he can prepare early."
"Very good, Lord Marquis." After hearing this, Mo nodded, then looked at Shuo Ling and asked again.
Shuo Ling's mouth was slightly wet at this moment, and he continued, "Of course, there are conditions. If he wants to secure his position as the prince, he must do what he says!"
"Master Marquis, please speak." Mo and Ye said while crossing their legs.
At that time, Shuo Ling picked up the tea cup on the table, took a sip of water, and said to Mo and Ye.
After Shuo Ling finished speaking, Mo and Ye nodded.
"Go." Shuo Ling said at that time.
Then the two of them walked out of the tent and continued back to Xiling.
