Chapter 326 Li Zhao's response
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yue looked at General Chen with cold eyes like a sharp blade, forcing his entire body to turn cold.
"Even if you are a soldier at the border, you are only a deputy general after all. This general always outshines you, and you dare to be so disdainful to me!"
Jiang Yue said coldly: "General Yue died for his country and was personally appointed by His Majesty. You insult him with such words, which is disrespectful to His Majesty!"
Her words gave Jiang Wuni, Lin Guo and Mu Heng some new views on Jiang Yue.
Wu Fei, Xue Wen and other members of the Xuanwu Army became more confident.
General Chen felt cold. The young general in front of him actually brought the matter to the attention of His Majesty in just a few words.
This was using His Majesty to put pressure on him, but he couldn't refute it.
General Chen looked at Jiang Yue again and softened his tone:
"Who is tied up in the carriage?"
"A spy from Northern Yan." Jiang Yue wanted to see His Majesty to report again, and did not want to tell anything else to the guard in front of him.
"What?" General Chen became more and more unconvinced. At the same time, he lifted the curtain of the carriage again and his face became solemn.
"If you want to take credit, you have to consider your own abilities." General Chen's face was full of jealousy, and he continued to ask:
"I heard that the two countries on the border formed an alliance. At such a critical moment, you still won the battle?"
Jiang Yue: "Northern Yan has been defeated. We will return to the court in triumph!"
"Returning in triumph?" What inspiring words! After hearing them, General Chen wished he could switch places with Jiang Yue.
"The triumphant return from the border is so inspiring, so inspiring!" The speaker was the Minister of War, Li Zhao, who had hurried over.
As soon as he arrived, he heard such good news and was naturally excited.
"Jiang Yue, how are you?"
When Li Zhao heard the eunuch's report, he thought he had misheard.
He knew that Northern Yan was a brave army, and thought that this war would never end so early.
At this moment, all his attention was on Jiang Yue, and he just casually bowed to General Chen.
General Chen returned the salute and thought to himself, I thought he was just a nobody, but I didn't expect this little soldier actually knew Lord Li.
He felt that if he were leading troops to fight, he would be the one enjoying this honor at this moment.
As a last resort, his arrogance was half subsided.
"Lord Li?" Jiang Yue didn't expect that Lord Li would come in person. It seemed that His Majesty did not trust her and was afraid that she was a spy from the enemy country.
Fortunately, she also knew people in the court.
"His Majesty sent me to meet you at the city gate. Jiang Yue, follow me into the palace quickly." Li Zhao felt very close to Jiang Yue when he saw her again.
Jiang Yue gave him the feeling of a distant relative whom he had not seen for many days.
After all, Jiang Yue and Zhang Yan worked together to save his life.
General Chen confirmed again and again:
"Lord Li, are they really border soldiers?"
"That's right!" Li Zhao turned to look at Chen Yuan, "General Chen, this is your fault. How can you be so negligent when the soldiers from the border return to the court?"
General Chen curled his lips hard, and the smile on his face was a little far-fetched. "Forgive me for my poor eyesight, and I hope the soldiers at the border will not blame me."
He bowed his hands reluctantly in apology.
Jiang Yue shook her head and sneered, "General Chen, that's not true."
At this moment, Li Zhao's sight fell on the carriage and coffin behind the army, and he was only concerned about his long-awaited reunion with Jiang Yue.
"This..." No matter who it is, sadness arises spontaneously.
Don’t laugh at me sleeping drunk on the battlefield. How many men have ever returned from the battles throughout history?
"It's General Yue." Jiang Yue lowered her voice and thought more than once that if Master Yue Tingshan were still alive, he would definitely let him live a worry-free old age.
But life is bound to have regrets.
When Li Zhao heard that it was Yue Tingshan's coffin, he felt sad.
Jiang Yue then asked:
"I wonder if Lord Li knows where General Yue lives?"
"The dead are the greatest, follow me."
With Li Zhao leading the way, Jiang Yue accompanying, and the Xuanwu soldiers following on the side, the army passed the defending general Chen Yuan and finally entered the Lindu Imperial City.
As soon as they entered the city, Jiang Yue gave the order: "Slow down your horse's pace, march carefully, and do not hurt any civilians!"
Ordinary people are not allowed to ride horses in the street.
The Xuanwu Army's massive display immediately attracted the attention of all the nearby civilians, and they all turned their eyes to them.
"Are they soldiers at the border?"
"Since the imperial officials are here to personally assist, there will be no problem."
The people stared at the Xuanwu army in a daze, their eyes filled with surprise and disbelief.
"Why are the soldiers at the border coming back at this time?"
"..."
At the same time, their eyes fell on the coffin in the center of the army.
The people immediately guessed what had happened and couldn't help but burst into tears.
Young Major General, that's amazing!
Because one of the people was suspicious,
"Did we win the battle?"
Another person echoed: "That's right. If we don't win the battle, the soldiers will definitely be busy killing the enemy. How can they spare the time to send Ling home?"
"Of course it is!"
"..." The people in the capital were talking about it and making guesses from all sides.
Their expressions had already become solemn and respectful, and they were all praising the bravery and fearlessness of the border soldiers.
"The soldiers at the border seem to have outstanding temperament and are all brave."
"Look! The young general in the lead is so handsome!"
Some little girls cheered wildly for Jiang Yue who was riding the leading horse, and some were even so excited that they cried.
The young general is full of vigor and vitality!
Bring the coffin back to the court, it means loyalty and righteousness!
They followed the Xuanwu army and expanded the team of more than 200 people.
The contrast between the before and after was too great, and Jiang Yue and other Xuanwu soldiers did not seem to have expected that they would be so popular this time.
At this moment, Jiang Wuni had already sat in the carriage.
Looking at the team in front of him, his own Xiaoliu walked solemnly in front of the army, and his heart was also excited.
Because the Xuanwu Army carried with them Yue Tingshan's body, Li Zhao first took the person to Yue's Mansion.
As I said, the dead are the greatest. Let's wait for a while before going to Your Majesty.
You can't bring a coffin to court.
The Yue Mansion is located on the back street of Lindu.
When we approached Yue Mansion, we found the gate was locked.
Jiang Yue dismounted and looked inside through the crack in the door. The emerald green weeds were more than half a person tall, and it looked like an abandoned courtyard.
Jiang Yue took the knife and cut off the door lock directly, and the coffin was put inside.
This time when she goes to the palace to meet the emperor, it is impossible for her to bring all the Xuanwu troops with her.
"Wu Fei, Xue Wen, Song Jie, Wu Ding, Chu Mo, Chen Yong, the six of you follow me into the palace."
After that, she said to the rest of the Xuanwu Army:
"Clean the yard!"
Wu Fei, Xue Wen and six others felt their hearts beating wildly.
This was a visit to the palace to see the emperor, and they, just common people, suddenly had the illusion that they were farmers in the morning and emperors in the evening.
No, it's not an illusion.
"Yes!" The troops thought that it would be good to have a place to stay.
Before leaving, she told her fifth sister, "Wait for me here, don't run around, don't let me come out and not find you."
After saying that, he glanced at his two brothers-in-law, who assured him with their eyes that they would definitely take good care of Jiang Wu Ni.
"Okay." Jiang Wu Ni is not a three-year-old child. Looking at the desolate scene of the Yue Mansion, she decided to help clean it up.
Jiang Yue looked at the spy again and said to Wu Fang and other brothers:
"Keep an eye on him!" This person is too important, Jiang Yue absolutely does not want anything to go wrong with him.
"Yes!" All the senior brothers assured in unison.
Jiang Yue, Wu Fei and others, accompanied by Li Zhao, rode their horses towards the palace.
At the palace gate, a team of eunuchs were waiting.
Jiang Yue and other generals followed Li Zhao as they approached the palace gate. When they dismounted from their horses, they looked up at the huge palace.
The buildings are majestic, with red bricks and green tiles. The scenes here made Jiang Yue look at them a few more times.
