Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Secret Soldiers Gather

After the dust settled on Xiaoyi's canonization, it soon caused a commotion in people's hearts.

The soldiers and horses under his control, the pro-guards, are tens of thousands, which can already be equivalent to the soldiers and horses in the city, and the appearance of Xiaoyi also made many old ministers of the former dynasty a little surprised, the name Xiaoyi is very familiar to them, Xiao Mansion Yu, but for them, it is just a different person with the same name.

Now that Xiao Yi has a heavy army, he has undoubtedly become a powerful figure, which makes people even more dispel the idea that he has something to do with the remnants of the Xiao Mansion.

After retiring from the court, Xiaoyi left the palace and returned to the mansion of the Wan Dynasty where he was given, and Jiang Lingzhou had already arrived at the mansion to wait for him.

"Jiang Gongzi." Xiaoyi saw him and said warmly.

"Jiang has seen the general of the Fu army." Jiang Lingzhou said and bowed respectfully.

"Jiang Gongzi doesn't have to be like this, without Jiang Gongzi, where can I talk about the position of general." Xiaoyi held Jiang Lingzhou's bowed arm with both hands and said in a salute voice.

Jiang Lingzhou straightened up and smiled lightly, "As long as you and I are dedicated to the emperor, even if these thousands of troops are handed over to you, I don't care, but if you let me know that you have two hearts, then it's another matter." ”

Xiao Yi knew that he had something to say, but his face did not change, and he still said warmly: "What Jiang Gongzi said, Xiao wrote it down." ”

"That's very good." Jiang Lingzhou nodded with satisfaction.

"The pro-guards have independently built barracks, and they have already been put in order there, and you can go directly to the barracks after you have rested."

"In addition to the secret soldiers who are now in the barracks, there are also some of them that will be taken to the Wan Dynasty by Gongsun Jue in two days, and you can answer him at that time."

Jiang Lingzhou instructed again.

"yes, I see." Xiaoyi responded.

After Jiang Lingzhou left, Xiaoyi put away Fang Cai's warm smile, and his expression became solemn and cold.

What Jiang Lingzhou said to him was all a warning to him that no wrongdoing was allowed, and this person became a tricky target in Xiaoyi's eyes.

……

Inside the Royal Palace.

Du Ruosheng followed Yan Qinghan to the Chongzheng Palace.

"How can the emperor let Xiaoyi enter the palace to discuss politics!?" Du Ruosheng frowned, very dissatisfied with Yan Qinghan's approach.

"I said I would reward him for helping me regain the talisman, but now it's not just right."

"Even so, how can the emperor give him the right to control the secret soldiers."

Yan Qinghan looked at Du Ruosheng's anxious and worried look, but he was very unclear, Du Ruosheng should not be so opposed.

"Ah Ling should not come forward, it is Ah Ling's intention to hand it over, I can rest assured, what is wrong with you, why are you so unwilling?" Yan Qinghan couldn't help but ask.

But Du Ruosheng couldn't answer, at this time, giving power and soldiers to Xiaoyi gave him a great opportunity.

Seeing that Du Ruosheng was speechless, Yan Qinghan opened his mouth again, "Ruosheng, are you hiding something from me?" ”

Du Ruosheng shook his head and said in a low voice: "No, I'm just worried."

"The last time we left from Qingxiao, you and Xiaoyi weren't quite right, did something happen?" Yan Qinghan asked again.

"Nothing happened."

Du Ruosheng still didn't say anything.

"Qi Guang." Yan Qinghan called Qi Guang, his eyes signaled, Qi Guangming, turned around and walked out of the Chongzheng Palace.

Du Ruosheng saw this, until Yan Qinghan was planning to get to the bottom of it.

"What the hell are you hiding from me?" Yan Qinghan slowly approached Du Ruosheng, his voice slightly cold.

"I said, nothing." Du Ruosheng was not timid, and said indifferently.

"Ruosheng, even if you don't say it, I will find out, I don't want to do this, since you are willing to return to me now, why do you want to hide so many things from me!"

Yan Qinghan was a little anxious, and Du Ruosheng's actions made him a little disappointed.

"It's that you're thinking too much." Du Ruosheng is still indifferent.

Yan Qinghan didn't ask any more, he also knew that even if he asked again, he wouldn't be able to ask anything, more than once, she didn't want to say anything, even if she was opening her heart little by little and bowing her head, she was still the same as before.

It was a few years ago, and it is still today.

"That's it, if not, forget it, I've already decided on this matter, and there is no need to talk about anything else."

Yan Qinghan turned around and said sharply, with his back to Du Ruosheng, Du Ruosheng only sighed lightly, and then saluted and retreated.

It wasn't until he heard the sound of the temple door opening and closing that Yan Qinghan slowly turned around, and his face was no longer solemn, replaced by a trace of loneliness.

And Xiaoyi's matter quickly reached Lu Lan's ears.

"You said that the emperor made this person a third-grade general? Tens of thousands of elite soldiers were also recruited. Lu Lan's voice was sharp and questioned.

"Yes, Niangniang, Xiaoyi personally entered the palace in the early days of the court, and the ministers saw it with their own eyes." Rong Wan returned.

"This Xiaoyi is getting more and more not simple, the people sent by the mourning family have been checking for so long, and they have no news at all, and now they have been recruited into the palace by the emperor, isn't it even more difficult to start!"

Lu Lan's tone revealed dissatisfaction.

Seeing this, Rong Wan didn't dare to answer, for fear of being reprimanded.

"It's good that he can enter the court, so that the mourning family is better to start, since you can't count on those fools, then let the mourning family personally examine this person."

Lu Lan's eyes were sharp, and he said word by word.

"Also, is that woman missing?" Lu Lan changed her mind and asked again. Let's take a book

"Well, the person sent sent a letter saying that she is no longer in Qingtai."

"Where did that go?"

"This ...... I don't know. ”

Rong Wan hesitated.

Lu Lan smoothed her breath and tried not to let herself be angry, "There are more than enough failures, check the mourning family, don't let go of the clues, this woman is very cunning, she can't keep her!" She was still angry.

"It's a mother!" Rong Wan replied timidly.

Not only the Queen Mother's faction who wanted to find Lan Nian, but also King Gaoping were also chasing non-stop, but there were no clues.

……

In Youzhou Wuling Villa, after Gongsun Ying sent a message to various sects, people from the sect came to gather with scattered secret soldiers one after another.

In about two days, the secret soldiers scattered to the various sects were also gathered, and Gongsun Ying asked his son Gongsun Jue to rush to the Wan Dynasty with all the men and horses according to Jianglingzhou's previous instructions.

However, in half a day, Gongsun Jue rushed to the outside of Wanchao City with his men and horses.

"Who?!" The guards outside the city blocked Gongsun Jue's way and asked with a shout.

"Tell your commander that the Gongsun family of Youzhou has sent someone, and he will naturally know." Gongsun Jue said calmly.

"Do you know who our commander is, and dare to be so arrogant!" The guard was a little displeased when he saw him breathing so loudly.

"Who? Whoever asks like this, he will know. ”

Gongsun Jue said without impatience.

"Our commander is the general of the Fu army, Lord Xiaoyixiao, in fact, you can see it if you say it!" The guard was clearly not going to go.

Gongsun Jue was a little shocked when he heard Xiaoyi's name, Jiang Lingzhou suddenly recalled all the secret soldiers, he had not yet understood each other, and now he learned that Xiaoyi had become the general of the Fu army, and he was even more confused.

"What you said is right, I am familiar with your general Fujun, I have important matters with him, if you delay here, I am afraid you can't afford it."

Gongsun Jue saw that the soft one didn't work, so he had to come to the hard one.

When the man heard this, he immediately reacted, "You have brought so many men and horses into the city, how can I guarantee that you have no compassion, and you wait again, and wait until I send someone to deliver the message, and then make a decision." ”

Gongsun Jue only felt more and more helpless, their officers and soldiers were so cumbersome and complicated.

But now I have to wait outside the city gate.

After a short time, the person sent by the guard to report came back, but what he didn't expect was that Xiaoyi returned with him.

Gongsun Jue saw Xiaoyi, but a little strange, this can be said to be the first time he saw Xiaoyi's true face, it has always been rumored in the rivers and lakes that the master of the Qingxiao Sect is handsome and extraordinary.

But when I saw it today, it was ordinary, except that the posture looked strong and slender, and the bearing was a little different from ordinary people, there was nothing special about it.

But how did he know that what he saw was just Xiaoyi with a fake face with a changed appearance.

Gongsun Jue saw Xiaoyi, bowed down and asked: "The master of Xiaomen has now changed his name to General Xiao, I guess you should know why I came here today." ”

"Jiang Gongzi has already told me." Xiao Yi said calmly and looked at the many soldiers and horses behind him.

"How many are there?" Xiaoyi asked.

"Forty thousand horses."

Xiaoyi was still a little shocked when he heard this number, plus the 20,000 in the military camp now, Yan Qinghan was able to secretly gather so many people and horses, and he could still be safe and sound under Lu Lan's surveillance, presumably he was not an idle person.

Subsequently, Gongsun Jue and Xiaoyi went to the military camp together, if these large numbers of people and horses entered the city, it would undoubtedly cause an unknown sensation, and the military camp set up was outside the city not far from Wanchao City.

After bringing the rest of the dark soldiers to the barracks, Gongsun Jue was successfully completed.

After finishing these, it was not too early, Gongsun Jue and Xiaoyi returned to his mansion in the Wan Dynasty together.

On the way, Gongsun Jue has always been very puzzled about Xiaoyi's being named a general.

"I don't know if I will call you Lord Xiaomen or General Xiao now?"

Xiaoyi smiled slightly: "It's all right, you don't have to be limited to these." ”

"There is something unknown in the younger generation, the master of Xiaomen has never been stained by the world, and he has never been touched by the disputes in the rivers and lakes and martial arts, how can he return to the palace to serve the emperor now?"

"Sometimes a lot of things are involuntary, especially when we want to be so satisfied, and if we want to hide in this chaos, how easy is it."

"I thought that the master of Xiaomen would not be bothered by these, but I didn't expect it to be the case."

"Haha, I'm just an ordinary person."

Xiaoyi laughed, then sped up and rode away.

On the day of the day, after Gongsun Jue said goodbye, he returned to Youzhou and returned to Youzhou Wuling Villa.

He explained the matter to his father, and Gongsun Ying was also surprised when he heard this.

Jianglingzhou does not explain why the secret soldiers were summoned into the court, but now it has always been quite surprising, I didn't expect that the sect master would be recruited into the palace and made a general.

"This Xiaoyi is by no means a simple person, there must be a huge secret hidden behind him." Gongsun Ying said meaningfully.

"What do you mean?" Gongsun Jue was puzzled.

"It was quite strange that the appearance of Qingxiao a few years ago was quite strange, and now it is mixed with the royal family, isn't it even more strange."

"My father has a point." Gongsun Jue nodded in agreement.
