Chapter 178: A Rare Calm
Lan Xiang'er and Zhou Yingxue, who had been waiting in Chujiang for a whole day, did not wait for the revenge from Wen Yunhan, the son of Wen Liangfu, the third elder of the cabinet, but waited for someone who none of them expected.
Mo Wentian, the man who haunted them in their dreams, suddenly appeared in front of them.
He appeared so abruptly that at the first glance of him, Lan Xiang'er was stunned in place, and Zhou Yingxue almost fainted.
It was Mo Nian in Zhou Yingxue's arms, and after seeing Mo Wentian, he immediately shouted "Dad" and ran over and threw himself into his arms!
The people who were still worried in their hearts instantly relaxed when they learned that Mo Wentian had returned to Chu Jiang.
As long as there is Mo Wentian, the son of the three elders of the cabinet, and the revenge of the ancient Li royal family, have become worthless existences!
After Wen Yunhan was forced to land at the alternate landing airport only more than 300 kilometers away from Luodu, he was unwilling to rush to Chujiang at high speed, but he received a call from his father, Wen Liangfu, the third elder of the cabinet, asking him to return to Luodu immediately!
The solemnity of the tone is unprecedented!
Luodu, something really happened.
To be precise, something big happened in the Great Xia Kingdom.
Country Y, which had just ended its rivalry with the Great Xia Kingdom, directly tore up the alliance, and with Commander Lev Batel as the commander, raised 500,000 troops, Chen soldiers hundreds of miles of border line, and threatened to take revenge!
At the same time, as if it had already been discussed, the three kingdoms of R, E, and W, which were facing the Great Xia Kingdom, also gathered hundreds of thousands of heavy troops on the border line between the two countries at the same time, echoing the Y country from afar, claiming to preside over justice, and asking the Great Xia Kingdom to give a reasonable explanation for the recent onslaught on Jingshan, the capital of the Y country!
That's all there is to it, the most troublesome thing for the cabinet is that the god of death Hades didn't know what kind of disease he had committed and went crazy, and he secretly colluded with Zeus, the god of the gods, and Poseidon, the god of the sea of the Sea King's Court, and Hesya, the god of fire from the fire sky, began to frequently harass the border passes, threatening the Great Xia Kingdom to hand over the god of war Mo Wentian, otherwise he would sneak directly into Luodu, so that the emperor garden and the cabinet would be wiped out!
It seems that in just one day, the tranquility of the border passes in all directions of the Great Xia Kingdom has been broken.
The worst thing is that both the Imperial Garden and the Cabinet are threatened by the four gods from the underground world!
On the other hand, on the side of the Great Xia Kingdom, among the only two gods in the original, the Martial God Shi Dare quietly retired after being forced to fight with the god of war Mo Wentian Chujiang that day, and never obeyed the orders of the cabinet.
And Mo Wentian, the god of war, was directly pushed to the end and became a grass people, and now he doesn't even know where people are!
After some deliberation among the three elders of the cabinet, they had to put aside the pressure from the ancient Li royal family for the time being, and immediately recalled Wen Yunhan, who was the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, to discuss the defense of Luodu.
The border is urgent!
The country is in a hurry!
After some discussion, the three elders of the cabinet, as well as Wen Yunhan, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, were dumbfounded.
The wolf smoke is everywhere, but there are no unscrupulous generals in the court, how to resist the enemy?
You must know that the three countries of R, E, and W on the border of Chen Bing at the moment, plus a country Y that has just torn up the alliance and is angry, are all hundreds of thousands of troops!
The four countries are not peaceful, even if Wen Yunhan is really as good as he can fight, it seems that he has no skills, right?
What's more, how many catties and taels does Wen Yunhan have, outsiders don't know, these three elders in the cabinet who have watched him grow up since he was a child don't know what to do?
The matter of the battle here has not yet been decided, and the ancient Li royal family over there has once again issued an urging, which is also an ultimatum - if you don't give a reasonable explanation for the death of the three brothers of the Li family within two days, don't blame the Li royal family for being unscrupulous!
What border is wolf, what country is safe, for the ancient Li royal family, it is a fart!
All they care about is the death of an agent who can reap benefits for themselves, and what kind of explanation should the Great Xia Kingdom give.
As for how many strong enemies are waiting outside the border gates, and how many enemies are snooping outside the country, it has nothing to do with them.
Anyway, even if the enemy invades, it will not be the ancient Li royal family who will bear the brunt of the damage!
The three elders of the cabinet were so angry that they couldn't do anything!
"In my opinion, each of our three elders recommends a general, plus Wen Yunhan, a total of four generals, we can directly lead the army to meet the four gates!"
Great Elder Ye Bodang finally came up with a most helpless solution.
The proposal was quickly agreed to by the other two cabinet elders.
Subsequently, the three cabinet elders nominated their favorite generals.
Ye Bodang, the great elder of the cabinet, recommended Han Yanfang, the commander of the Nanye Department under the jurisdiction of the Shenji Army.
The second elder Shen Conglong recommended Yue Zhongling, the deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army.
The third elder Wen Liangfu recommended Cheng Xingzhou, the commander of the Eastern Field Department under the jurisdiction of the Shenji Army.
The three of them are all seven-star holy elephant generals.
They are all famous generals who have resisted the enemy at the border for many years.
The three elders of the cabinet all smiled tacitly after seeing the three generals they had recommended.
Then, report to the Imperial Garden to listen to the decision of the Son of Heaven.
By the way, please tell me who is the main general.
After all, defending against the enemy at the same time outside the borders of these four countries requires coordination and cooperation from all sides. If there is no main general in charge, the so-called battle can only be fought separately and hindered by each other.
For the four people recommended by the three elders, Han Rongfang, Yue Zhongling, Cheng Xingzhou and Wen Yunhan as the generals of the four-way army, and they went to the border of the four countries to defend against the enemy, and the Son of Heaven took it.
As for the candidate for the main general, the Son of Heaven did not mention a word, as if he had forgotten about this matter at all.
Although the three cabinet elders were full of doubts in their hearts, no one dared to say anything rashly.
After all, the emperor's heart is as deep as the sea!
However, although the main general has not been determined who will be in charge, since the general of the four-way army has been determined, there are still some things that need to be done.
In order to achieve the purpose of deterring the enemy, under the auspices of the three elders of the cabinet, Luodu held a grand ceremony to worship the generals!
Not only that, but after asking the Son of Heaven to agree, Han Rongfang, Zhong Yueling, Cheng Xingzhou and Wen Yunhan were promoted from the original seven-star holy elephant general to the eight-star green dragon general in one fell swoop!
High-ranking officials, real high-ranking officials!
Although Han Rongfang and the other four were ecstatic, Wen Liangfu, the third elder of the cabinet, was also smiling all day long, and suddenly became more than ten years younger.
The only one who was depressed was Shen Conglong, the second elder of the cabinet. Originally, his son Shen Yuechun should have a share of this glory, but now he is uncertain as a prisoner of the enemy country, and every time he thinks of this, he almost cried!
Everything is going on in an orderly manner.
Comparatively speaking, Chu Jiang seemed calm.
Without Wen Yunhan, the son of Wen Liangfu, the third elder of the cabinet, coming to make trouble, and Mo Wentian, who had always been worried about it, also returned safely, Zhou Yingxue and the others were all overjoyed.
Mo Wentian is with Mo Wentian and Mo Nianyi every day, enjoying the joy of family life wantonly.
And Luo Xiaoxiao, Du Feng and others took advantage of this rare opportunity to take a break and play around in Chujiang, so happy!
It seems that the strong enemies outside the four gates of the country really have nothing to do with these hot-blooded sons and daughters who have sweated and bled outside the borders of the country.
What Mo Wentian and the others did in Chu Jiang, naturally there were secret letters reported to the second elder of the cabinet, Shen Conglong, and the third elder Wen Liangfu every day.
Seeing that the secret letter was full of Mo Wentian's indulgence in his children's private affairs, and his subordinates were all oblivious to the mountains and rivers, Shen Conglong, the second elder of the cabinet, and Wen Liangfu, the third elder, showed a rare smile on their faces.
What is the crisis outside the country, the wolf smoke at the border, and how to make Mo Wentian so dead that he can't turn over, those are all trivial!
How to completely separate Mo Wentian from the 100,000 Heavenly Ce Army, and then get rid of it quickly, is the most important thing!
Because of this, the ceremony of Wen Yunhan and the other four people was even more impressive, and it became the top celebration of the Great Xia Kingdom!
For all this, Mo Wentian, who was in Chu Jiang, still turned a deaf ear.
"Barbarian, I never thought you would be so fond of children!"
Zhou Yingxue sat in the small garden of the Dawn Capital, holding a book and drinking tea, squinting at Mo Wentian and Mo Nian playing happily there, and couldn't help but pout.
Mo Wentian patted Mo Nian's little head, signaled her to play by herself for a while, and then came to Zhou Yingxue's side, unceremoniously took the cup from her hand and drank two sips, and then said, "What's the matter, my Xue'er is jealous?"
"Phew, I'm not jealous!" Zhou Yingxue snorted lightly, but there was undisguised envy in her eyes.
Mo Wentian didn't understand Zhou Yingxue's thoughts? He immediately sat down beside her, leaned closer to her ear and whispered, "Why don't you think about it?"
Zhou Yingxue's cheeks flushed, and she gently twisted Mo Wentian's ears and said, "What kind of meat and vegetarian, you give me honesty! Before I officially marry you, don't think about it!"
"Oh, really, then I have to go outside for a cup of tea tonight to lower the fire, otherwise I'm afraid I'm going to get on fire......" Mo Wentian looked at Zhou Yingxue's proud figure that was difficult for any man to resist, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva fiercely.
Zhou Yingxue saw that Mo Wentian looked at her so unbearable, her cheeks were even redder and almost oozing blood, but she pretended to be angry and said: "Hmph, you dare! From tonight, you must stay in the room honestly at nine o'clock, and you are not allowed to go anywhere!"
"Ah, stay in the room at nine o'clock, then I don't have to die of boredom?" Mo Wentian immediately put on a bitter gourd face.
Zhou Yingxue was looking forward to it, and said pointedly: "Do you feel bored when I accompany you?"
"Come on, that's even worse! I can only watch from a distance and not play with it, so I can't have anemia with nosebleeds?" Mo Wentian immediately cried out bitterly.
Zhou Yingxue looked at Mo Wentian with a wicked smile and said in a low voice: "I don't give myself to you, it doesn't mean that you can't do anything else!"
As soon as the words came out, even she felt embarrassed, and immediately used the book in her hand to cover her pretty face, which was already red.
