Before the army left Jixiangfang, many people flocked to watch Zhang Xiaowu, the generalissimo of soldiers and horses, and surrounded their way forward. Not to mention the Han people, people all over the world like to join in the fun, and everyone came over to see the famous ghost general Zhang Xiaowu, so that the team was blocked.

Zhang Xiaowu was also very helpless, the people supported him, he couldn't drive people away, so he moved forward slowly. On the contrary, the guards were nervous, lest someone secretly harm him. When he came to the gate of Jixiangfang, he suddenly heard an alarm, Zhang Xiaowu raised his head and saw several figures jumping down from the gate and landing beside him. But Zhang Xiaowu dodged the slash, and the guards around him immediately rushed over to block the assassin. The Assassins were in a hurry and tried to rush up but were knocked away by the other guards with their shields, and the Assassins cut down the people and the other guards, fleeing as if they were elsewhere.

Wang Jing shouted: "Come on, protect your lord!" ”

The guards drew their swords and surrounded Zhang Xiaowu tightly, and the people fled in panic, trampling on countless wounded. Naturally, several assassins did not cause much harm to Zhang Xiaowu, but instead reminded him, and soon, everyone worked together to capture the assassin and escort him to Zhang Xiaowu.

Zhang Xiaowu looked at the assassin and felt familiar, so he stepped forward and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The man sneered: "I hate that my brothers were too nervous, and they made a mistake and fell short. ”

Zhang Xiaowu said: "I've seen you, but I forgot where I am, I have a grudge against you?" ”

The man said: "I am Bian Zhong, the son of Bian Wen, Xuanwu Xiaoqi!" ”

Zhang Xiaowu smiled bitterly, burning Wuguan County and burning the Xuanwu Army was indeed one of the few acts he had done against his will in his life, which in turn led to the slaughter of the silver-clothed guards. He looked at the text, was silent for a moment, drew his knife and stepped forward. Bian Zhong snorted coldly, raised his head, and prepared to be killed.

However, Zhang Xiaowu cut off his hair, handed it to him, and said: "You go, use this beard to commemorate your father, when he sees him again in the Yin Cao Difu, he will beat and insult him and never fight back." But today I cannot be slain by you, for if I die, the kingdom will be in turmoil. ”

Bian Zhong was taken aback, raised his head and saw that Zhang Xiaowu had turned around and left. The soldiers of the Blue Dragon Army also bypassed him, just glaring at him with murderous aura. This look is very familiar, and Bian Zhong's subordinates look at Zhang Xiaowu with the same eyes.

Bian Zhong didn't understand how this executioner could be worshiped and respected, although he was released, his heart was still full of hatred. Several generals helped him up, and Bian Zhong said resentfully: "Let's go." ”

"Childe, are we still in Longdu City?"

"What are you doing here? Kill and can't kill him, stay and watch him be the prime minister and monopolize power? Bian Zhong said depressedly, "He doesn't kill me, it's just like a cat playing with a mouse, thinking that I am no threat to him, and keeping me is just a pleasure for him." Let's go to Lingnan and leave now. ”

"What are you going to Lingnan for?"

"Go to Lingnan to find like-minded people."

"Assassination?"

"Yes, continue the assassination!"

Bian Zhong's assassination did not affect Zhang Xiaowu's decision to enter the palace, and he continued to move forward, passing through the avenue and seeing many people looking at them with joy. The people still have a vivid memory of Zhang Xiaowu's governance of Longdu City, and many of the rules of Longdu City are now left by Zhang Xiaowu three years ago, especially the commercial tax and garbage removal fees. The people are not opposed to charging these two fees, especially the collection of garbage removal fees, which solves the garbage littering phenomenon that has plagued Longdu City for many years in one fell swoop.

The people's good memories of Zhang Xiaowu are still fresh, especially when he is so young, and he restricts the people from not disturbing the people in Longdu, and almost all of Zhang Xiaowu's sources come from slaughtering large households, which is even more popular among the people. Therefore, on the second day after he entered Longdu, hundreds of people supported him, and even the assassination that had just happened did not affect everyone's enthusiasm. And the most supportive thing is that the people did not have the additional issuance of banknotes during the reign of Zhang Xiaowu, which led to a hard life, and now in Longdu City, a penny can be exchanged for a hundred banknotes. The reason why the people are looking forward to Zhang Xiaowu's return to Longdu to govern the world is because they believe that Zhang Xiaowu will be able to bring back the rich life of three years ago.

What made the people worship even more was that Zhang Xiaowu led the army to drive away the Inuyi who entered the Central Plains, and became a rare hero who received and paid for his homeland and land in the past three hundred years. The story of the ghost general Zhang Xiaowu was originally a legend of the common people, coupled with his meritorious contributions, he simply became an absolute idol and immortal in the hearts of the people.

Zhang Xiaowu's men were triumphant, as if this glory belonged to them, and they couldn't help but secretly congratulate themselves on how lucky they were to be able to become the generalissimo's apprentice.

Wang Yijin couldn't help but smile when he looked at these teenagers, but Zhang Xiaowu suddenly beckoned to him and shouted, "One catty, come here." ”

"What's the matter, sir?"

Zhang Xiaowu said: "Don't go to the imperial city, there is another task for you, now you immediately send the second lady and the third lady and Mangzhong out of the city." I have already arranged for Zhao Suo to wait outside the city for ten miles, you give them to Zhao Suo, and you have Zhao Suo to send them to Youzhou. ”

Wang Yijin said curiously: "Why, sir? ”

Zhang Xiaowu said: "I think the fight between me and Gu Yong should be very cruel, I am not afraid that he is as hard as iron, but I am worried that he is as soft as venom." So they stay here and only accompany me to worry, Youzhou is our lair, you send them to Youzhou to be safer. ”

Wang Yijin said: "Will you send it now?" ”

Zhang Xiaowu said: "Yes, it's now." ”

Wang Yijin said: "Why didn't you say it in advance when you were at home just now?" ”

Zhang Xiaowu said with a smile: "Because in front of them, I can't say it, I have just reunited with them, and then I want to send them away, isn't it cruel?" ”

Wang Yijin said helplessly: "My lord, do you think it won't be cruel to let me be this bad guy now?" So you thought about how to arrange them before you went out? Are we all in the dark? ”

Zhang Xiaowu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Do you know what your biggest advantage is?" ”

Wang Yijin asked, "Is it handsome?" ”

Zhang Xiaowu said solemnly: "No, your biggest advantage is that you are so shameless and arrogant, it is precisely because you are thick-skinned and not afraid of being scolded, so I asked you to do this." ”

Wang Yijin said: "My lord, you are so fresh and refined even to scold people. ”

Zhang Xiaowu laughed: "Go, go." ”

Wang Yijin reluctantly turned around and left.

The group continued on their way, and soon arrived at the gate of the imperial city. The main gate of the imperial city is called the South Gate, also known as the Noon Gate, at this moment, Wei Yuan led the Imperial Forest Army to greet the whole team in front of the Noon Gate, and on their side, there were three hundred strong men kneeling on the ground and being bound. Wei Yuan stepped forward and said with a smile: "Master Hou, the three hundred murderers who slaughtered the two hundred and twenty-nine people of the Silver Cloth Guard are all here. ”

Zhang Xiaowu asked, "What about Li Cunyi?" ”

Wei Yuan said: "Li Cunyi resigned in anger. ”

"Oh? Resigned? ”

"Yes, he also swore that he would never serve the country again in this life."

Zhang Xiaowu shook his head and sighed, walked in front of the three hundred soldiers, looked at their stubborn faces that were going to die, stared at them for a long time, nodded and said: "Execute the order, where the soldiers are, you are not guilty, and you are pardoned." ”

When everyone heard this, they were stunned.

Zhang Xiaowu nodded to Xingminglou, and Xingminglou shouted: "The generalissimo said, forgive you, you don't have to die." ”

The three hundred soldiers looked at each other, but they didn't expect to escape from death, but they were pardoned by the mortal enemy? They didn't understand what Zhang Xiaowu meant, let alone why he had pardoned his enemies.

Zhang Xiaowu said: "The death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime is unforgivable, you three hundred, immediately return to the army to pack up your luggage and gold and silver, return home, marry a wife and have children to serve Grandpa and Auntie, and never be a soldier." Can you promise me? ”

Everyone was silent for a while, and then someone answered one after another, and they suppressed the excitement in their hearts, at this time, they were very conflicted in their hearts. An hour ago, they were eager to break Zhang Xiaowu's body into pieces, and privately said that they would not let Zhang Xiaowu go if they turned into a ghost in the future. But now, at this moment, they are overwhelmed by the lives of the enemy.

Zhang Xiaowu shouted: "Can you go home and stop being a soldier?" Didn't you eat? Or are you scared of me? ”

"Yes!" The three hundred soldiers replied in unison. As soon as Zhang Xiaowu waved his hand, the three hundred people immediately turned around and left, and even they looked back from time to time, wanting to remember this "enemy" who had pardoned them.

Finally, a military man couldn't help but turn around and ask, "Generalissimo, you won't take revenge?" ”

Zhang Xiaowu said: "When is the time for retribution, the country is so unfortunate, the population has plummeted, the people are poor, and the army is withering. You are Han people, and Han people don't kill Han people. ”

After the three hundred soldiers disappeared, Wei Yuan stepped forward and asked, "Master Hou, what do you mean?" You don't want to kill them, and you want General Li to personally escort them to you and behead them, could it be that you want to befriend General Li? ”

Zhang Xiaowu smiled and said: "On the contrary, I want to tell him that I can let him live, I can also let him die, and I can also let him live as well as die." ”

Wei Yuan's heart was cold, he didn't expect Zhang Xiaowu's mind to be so deep. He suddenly became worried, and he was not sure that he would be able to kill Zhang Xiaowu. At this time, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves, and a group of cavalry surrounded him from all directions. He barely calmed his expression and said with a smile: "Master Hou, your army is here." ”

Zhang Xiaowu saw Shen Lindong from a distance, and Shen Lindong stepped forward and said, "My lord, Xia Ming went to the east gate, Ding Zhen went to the west gate, and Fu Ziyi went to the north gate." ”

"Take over."

"Whoa."

The Qinglong Army quickly entered the imperial city, Wei Yuan felt powerless for a while, it seemed that he had underestimated Zhang Xiaowu after all, and underestimated his caution. But fortunately, although the Qinglong Army took over the imperial city, it could not enter the harem, as long as Zhang Xiaowu was killed, then everything would be easy to say.

"Open the door! Welcome the Generalissimo to the court! ”

"Open the door - welcome the generalissimo!"

"Whew-"

The five gates of the south gate of the imperial city were opened at the same time, which was the highest etiquette to welcome the ministers, symbolizing a unique and noble status, and the five gates were opened at the same time, which also meant that the transfer of power in the imperial city began now.
