I listened to Cao Fu's words, and my heart suddenly became a lot clearer, but I looked Cao Fu up and down again, as if I had known him for decades, but I had never really understood this person, and after looking at it for a while, I smiled slightly apologetically: "Boss Cao, I was sorry for you, and I involved you in it for no reason." ”

Cao Fu smiled, but pointed to the pavilion and said, "The houses are all on fire, let's leave quickly." ”

As soon as we reached the door, we were blocked by a group of people, who were still dressed in black, with swords in their hands facing us, and the soldiers who came out of the hotel were facing them with swords, but somehow they did not move.

I thought about it, and knew that the officers and soldiers in the army had always been decent people who worked the battlefield, but now the other party was also well-trained, but they didn't look like people in the army, that is, assassins, who were not aware of the enemy, and could not act rashly.

Thinking of this, I smiled and said loudly: "All the soldiers listen to the order, and those who kill the enemy will be rewarded!" ”

Sure enough, these people were as vulnerable as the people who had just broken into the courtyard, and after killing the enemy, the confidence of the soldiers was greatly increased, and they ran to me to ask for merit, regardless of how long I had occupied this place.

Seeing this, Cao Fu quietly left behind me, knowing that he didn't want to attract attention, so I had to pretend not to see him.

Half of the night passed, and the enemy outside the hotel was almost cleared, and I was thinking that the garrison outside the city should also have news, when I heard the sound of horses' hooves, and the first person galloped with a white tassel gun, it was Luo Shixin.

When I saw him coming, I knew that there was no movement outside the city.

He was followed by a dozen horsemen, but only a few horses were dressed in armor, and I looked behind me, and when I glanced in the direction where Cao Fu had left, I found that he had stopped.

It turned out that Luo Shixin was followed by Xu Shimo and others who had been missing for a long time and had no news from many sources.

Luo Shixin came to me, turned over and dismounted, knelt on one knee, and arched his hand: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, fortunately, with the help of Mr. Feng and others, all the rebels outside the city have been taken. ”

I took two steps forward to help him up, looked at Xu Shimo who was standing behind him, bowed his hand, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xu, after many years, Mr. Don't come unharmed." This time thanks to you. ”

Xu Shimo touched his beard, nodded and smiled: "Thank you Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince for your concern." ”

Another woman stepped forward and saluted me and said, "I haven't thanked you for saving me, but Ling'er is here to thank you." ”

I thought about it, when I was in the Jiangdu Palace, in order to be thoughtful for her, Queen Xiao wanted me to take her as a concubine, and used this as an excuse to take her out of the palace.

Seeing her thank me, I just smiled and said, "You are a person from Qingyu Pavilion, as the pavilion master back then, if I don't save myself when I see death, how can I afford the false name of the pavilion master?" ”

Cao Fu also went and returned, approaching Xu Shimo and didn't know what to say softly, Xu Shimo replied a few words, Cao Fu nodded and left.

When the riots outside the hotel were temporarily calmed down, I asked Feng Li to be in charge of arranging temporary accommodation, and I followed Luo Shixin to the military camp outside the city.

Qiu Ying saw that someone was coming, and rode on his horse to direct the soldiers behind him to be on guard, and when we approached and were recognized by him, he jumped off his horse and bowed his hand to me, "His Royal Highness the Prince." ”

I nodded, rolled over and dismounted, and asked, "How many people are making trouble?" ”

When Qiu Ying heard this, he looked at me with an embarrassed expression, and after a pause, he replied cautiously: "The 20,000 people stationed here are all involved......

Before he finished speaking, my expression turned grim - that is to say, no one in Luo Yi's old department was willing to obey me?

I looked at Qiu Yingqi and shook my head self-deprecatingly, no, at least the person in front of me is willing.

If one person is not convinced, I can kill them, but if 20,000 people are not convinced, it cannot be solved by killing people alone.

Before I approached the school grounds, I heard a very noisy voice, Luo Shixin pointed to the middle of the field and said: "Your Highness, these people who are trying to commit chaos are all Li Yi's old department, and they are all here. ”

Qiu Yingqi had been worried since he came to the army, and at this time, after listening to Luo Shixin's words, he also looked up at the school yard and sighed heavily.

I glanced at him, knowing why he sighed so long, but I didn't break it, but asked, "What are these people trying to do?" ”

Qiu Yingqi replied: "They have been following Li Yi for a long time, and they are unwilling to be loyal to His Highness. ”

He said it bluntly, but I didn't think so, shook my head and said, "This...... I'm afraid not. Looking at the dark night sky, "It's really a toss tonight, these people will deal with it tomorrow." ”

Qiu Yingqi opened his mouth to speak, but I explained a few words to Luo Shixin, and then turned back to the military tent.

Only returned to the military tent, someone came to report, it was sent by Xu Shiyun, who was guarding the town in the north, it turned out that Shi Bobi was attacked by the Khitan tribe tonight, although he had tens of thousands of elite soldiers, but the Khitan raid could not be prevented, he was unprepared, and he was defeated and retreated, and he actually sent people to find the guards who guarded Hebei, and wanted to seek refuge.

Early the next morning, I came to the school grounds, and the soldiers, who had stood all night in the cold wind, were a little overwhelmed, and huddled together with each other, and when they saw that someone was finally coming, they whispered again.

I whispered to Qiu Ying: "Li Yi's subordinates, if there are a few young generals like you, they will not fall into such a situation, they are quite numerous, if they force themselves to be my enemy, it will definitely bring me great trouble, but you see, they would rather wait for a glimmer of life here than fight, so cowardly, what is the use of staying?" ”

When Qiu Yingqi heard this, he was stunned for a moment, then suddenly knelt on the ground and arched his hand: "Your Highness's intention is to kill these 20,000 people?" ”

I didn't answer.

He also said: "I have heard of the name of His Highness's benevolence, please open the net and forgive them." ”

I ignored his plea, and said, "Go and fetch me all the generals above the commander of a thousand commanders." ”

Qiu Yingqi had no choice but to obey.

Luo Shixin said on the side: "Your Highness, the last general thinks that these people can't be killed. ”

I stood on the high platform, looked at the chaotic crowd in the arena and said with a smile: "You just heard Qiu Yingqi's words, he said that he has heard my name of benevolence, so he should not do anything to kill, don't you think this sentence is very problematic?" ”

Luo Shixin arched his hand and asked, "The last general doesn't understand. ”

I said, "If all the people down there think so, I'm afraid they will think that they don't have to pay any price even if they make a mess, and I will forgive them sooner or later, I think, that's why they are so unscrupulous." ”

Luo Shixin said: "Your Highness means ......"

I said, "I'm afraid that someone will know about me and incite them to make trouble." At that time in the city, wasn't it his cronies who followed Li Yi? At that time, apart from Qiu Yingqi, who else stood up? Since these men are in the name of loyalty, I will see how loyal they are. ”
