After Yu Qingtan separated, Zhou Budo looked at the small sword he had just obtained in his hand, and his mood suddenly became sad.

Is his father going to face a huge Dongxun alone in such a situation?

Because of his father, Zhou Budo's enlightenment teacher when he was a child was the old marshal of the Bai family who had a great reputation in Nanli, and he learned the art of the military family since he was a child, although now he is, in the words of the old marshal of the Bai family, is still an idiot commander, but even so, he can see how stretched the available forces in his father's hands are.

Just now, Qingtan gave Zhou Budo a general explanation that there are still about 30,000 garrisons in Shangzhou, and if you throw away those garrisons that can't be moved in important places, the number of troops that your father can mobilize after arriving in Shangzhou is only more than 10,000, and the garrison equipment in that place in Shangzhou is replaced once every six years, which is far less than the three-year change of garrisons in other border states, let alone compared with the annual change of the forbidden army.

Dragging a group of troops with old equipment and more than 10,000 numbers to face the pressure exerted by the entire Dongxun, such an overwhelming situation, I'm afraid that even if the soldiers are alive, I'm afraid it will be difficult to turn the situation around, right?

Even if his father's prestige is still as before, he can summon 10,000 people to die for him with a word, and the situation is very rare, although he doesn't know much about Dongxun Kingdom, but it is also a big country that is listed as one of the three major countries on the continent with Nanli, how can he say that he can send more than 100,000 troops with his national strength, right?

I have also seen the map of that place in Shangzhou before, there are not many dangerous places, most of them are plains and slopes, as long as the commander of Dongxun is not stupid, from Shangzhou as a breakthrough point to attack the south, then his father can only stick to one place even if he has divine help, and cannot return to other places.

After Zhou Budo pondered these carefully, the eyes became more and more calm.

It seems that the elements of my mission decision are really important.

But after thinking about this, Zhou Budo's face became even more ugly.

"Oops"

Zhou Budo didn't pay attention, and directly bumped into a person head-on, so that he was hit by that person and took a few steps back, touched his head, Zhou Budo looked up and saw that the person who was hit by himself turned out to be the bitter wood who was going to be with him on this trip.

And the man next to Kumu, who was about the same age as Kumu, should have suddenly laughed.

Kumu looked at the somewhat stupid Zhou Budo, frowned, and then sighed helplessly for some reason, pointed at Zhou Budo and said with a smile to the side

"This guy is the little kid we're going to take with us on this trip."

Suddenly, after knowing that the somewhat silly and silly child in front of him was actually the prince of Zhou Wang, his face suddenly changed, he wiped his eyes with his hands, looked at Zhou Budo carefully, and then looked at Kumu, wanting to say something.

And Kumu attached his ear to his ear, whispered some words, and suddenly smiled before he nodded slowly, and said to Zhou Budo quite heroically

"It turns out that your kid is the prince of the palace of King Zhou, on the way to Dongxun on our trip, you can just follow me, and I will protect you well, and I will definitely not be moved by some young people with some bad intentions."

When he said this, his face was a little different, but Zhou Budo didn't pay attention to this, and just hummed quietly.

Then he suddenly smiled and saw that Kumu didn't speak for a long time, so he pursed his lips and beckoned Zhou Budo and said

"Come on, come on, you kid just follow the two of us directly, let's go to the Xuanmur Hall to see His Majesty's decree now, and then prepare to go out of the city to Dongxun."

Zhou Budo didn't speak, but walked to Kumu's side and didn't make a sound.

Suddenly, he smiled and didn't say anything, because just the first time he saw Zhou Budo, he recognized that this kid was the target of the assassination he led to Pingyu County last month.

But after he received this task, he said to the background of the child that the child was the illegitimate son of a corrupt official in the court, and let him shoot the child directly when he saw it.

However, when I received this mission, I did have a lot of questions, because if this mission was just to assassinate children, why should I let a commander go in person? Besides, this is not their business in the first place, right?

And let a commander like him go in person, and let himself bring a team of Yu Linwei over.

Yes, it's Yu Linwei, when he set off, he suddenly laughed and was stunned, Yu Linwei is the most mysterious system in the royal forbidden army, and the people who can enter it, whether they are three generations of ancestors in the south, are loyal ministers of Nanli, or their personal strength is a first-class good player, and Yu Linwei is also one of the few troops who only obey the orders of the emperor.

With a master of archery and a team of Yu Linwei, such a lineup can assassinate the monarchs of some small countries, but now they all have to go out to kill a powerless little kid?

Although he met Kumu and Ji Wuying in Pingyu County later, this made this lineup not play a role, but suddenly laughing is not a fool, an army that only obeys the orders of the emperor, and actually participated in such a task, which must involve a lot of big people and secret things, if it weren't for the extraordinary identity of his master Iron Arrow Zen Master, and his talent in the arrow path is also a must, otherwise it is difficult to guarantee that he has been killed by someone now.

And this kind of speculation at that time, when he learned that the child was Zhou Dunyi's only son, Zhou Budo, suddenly smiled at this time, and he had already determined a lot of what he thought in his heart.

This game is naked a conspiracy against Zhou Dunyi, the king of Zhou, the guy Kumu, but the disciple of the queen of Zhou with a bizarre background, if he guesses so.

Secretly sent someone to assassinate the son-in-law of the Zhou Wangfu, and then took the hand to get rid of the bitter wood that was a big help to the Zhou Wangfu, and then cut off the wings of the King of Zhou in the court, and now he sent the King of Zhou to Shangzhou to lead the army to resist the Dongxun who might launch an attack.

Shangzhou has always been a place where my father doesn't love my mother, and the military department has defaulted to changing clothes every six years, and now it's only been more than three years since the last time I changed clothes, and I definitely won't think that the military department will be so kind, and this transfer must have the will of the emperor.

As long as more than half of the garrison is transferred, and then the excuse is to change clothes and drag it for a month, and then the emperor will come forward to find an excuse at will, which can be delayed for half a month, according to the information he found in the Jinyiwei archives, the army that can be mobilized to participate in the war is estimated to be the 100,000 central army in Chengdu City.

It seems that this time the emperor is going to make a move to design King Zhou, but this move is too clumsy, and he can easily guess it, that bitter wood them.

Thinking in his heart, he suddenly smiled and quietly glanced at Kumu, and saw that Kumu was still expressionless like an iceberg.

They didn't get as much information as I did, but there should be some speculation.

Would Emperor Lidi really use such a flawed strategy?

Suddenly, I am puzzled by this here, if this matter is made by some ordinary people, I am afraid that I will take it for granted, after all, how can ordinary people have so many ideas.

But if you put it on Emperor Li.....

A guy who has been sitting in that position for more than ten years, will the plan he has laid out really just like this?

I have also heard about the battle for the throne of the previous generation from the master Iron Arrow Zen Master, although the second prince of the current King of Zhou was the most promising prince to inherit the unification at that time, and the princes at that time were all able to be called a hegemon, when Nanli encountered the alliance of the countries, it was also these princes who took the lead, although the reason for the withdrawal of the alliance army in the end was because of the sudden rise of the uneven wind, but the strength of the princes can be seen by the discerning people.

And the current emperor was only a prince who had not left the cabinet at that time, with no connections and no family background, but in the end, he was able to defeat those excellent brothers and successfully ascend the throne.

Could such a character be a fuel-efficient lamp?

Not long after, under the notification of the eunuch outside the Xuanshu Palace, the three of them entered the Xuanshu Hall and saw the Emperor Li, who was correcting the folds on the couch.

At this time, the emperor has taken off the dragon robe and put on a light and comfortable yellow robe, although he is a monarch, but now the emperor looks a little haggard, looking at the mountain of folds and another stack of ancient books on the board, as well as the ginseng soup that has been cold.

It seems that His Majesty has been handling government affairs for a while, and he can't even take care of food.

After the three of them entered the Xuanshu Hall, they knelt on their knees, held their left hand and supported their right hand on the ground, and then slowly kowtowed to the ground, and bowed very respectfully.

And Emperor Li, under the reminder of the eunuch beside him, saw these three people, waved his hand, and said to them kindly

"You three don't have to give me such a big salute, just get up without being polite."

After the three of them said in unison, they stood up, and Emperor Lidi took out an edict from the recital on the side and handed it to the eunuch beside him.

The eunuch slowly walked in front of Kumu with the edict in both hands, and Kumu was just about to salute and receive the order, only to hear Emperor Lili say with a smile

"I said that there is no need to salute, take this edict and prepare to leave quickly."

Kumu nodded in a daze, took the edict with both hands, and put it away in a good way.

Emperor Li nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Zhou Budo, who was a lot shorter among the three people, and beckoned to him with a smile

"No doubt, come here."

Zhou Budo obediently walked to Emperor Li, to be honest, he and Emperor Lidi are also acquaintances, according to his wet nurse, he hugged Emperor Lidi when he was young, and I don't know if he played tricks on himself.

Emperor Li looked at the young face of the child in front of him lovingly, reached out and rubbed Zhou Budo's head, and comforted him softly

"Actually, you don't have to go on this trip, but this is all what Uncle Wang meant, he said that he wants you to go to Dongxun to see the world and experience the experience, but there is no doubt, if you don't want to go, just tell Uncle Huang, Uncle Huang can still take you off the list."

Because of the relationship between Zhou Dunyi and Emperor Li, theoretically speaking, Emperor Li is really Zhou Budo's uncle, but this self-proclaimed person is often only Emperor Li can take the initiative to say it.

And after hearing the kindness of Emperor Li's concern, Zhou Budo shook his head resolutely and said in a deep voice

"No, the little nephew knows the importance of this trip, and the little nephew's father is still on the way to Shangzhou at this time, whether the little nephew is public or private, he should not escape this matter because of his cowardice."

Hearing Zhou Budo's words, not only Emperor Li's face was a little shocked, but even the face of Kumu, who had always shown people with the appearance of an iceberg, was a little unbelievable at this time.

The reason why Emperor Li was shocked was because he felt that a second generation, once he knew the danger of this trip, would definitely cry and shout and beg him to remove him from the list, but what he didn't expect was that from Zhou Budo's expression, Emperor Li didn't see the slightest fear and fear of this matter.

As for Kumu's incredibleness, it was because he had been in contact with Zhou Budo several times, his concept of this child was still smart, timid and cowardly, originally after he heard His Majesty say that Zhou Budo could be removed, he thought that Zhou Budo should be happy, but he never expected that Zhou Budo actually refused?

"Hahaha. It's worthy of being the second brother's child, hahahahaha"

After being surprised for a while, Emperor Li suddenly laughed out loud, this kid is really good, not bad.

And the bitter wood on the side also showed a rare subtle smile on his face at this time.
