Chapter 103: Tricks
There was silence in the public hall, and there was no sound at all, and even the sound of breathing was inaudible, which seemed a little weird.
All five of them were lost in thought, and looking at the frowning faces, it was clear that they all sensed the urgency of the situation before them.
"By the way, my lord, when Lord Ye Fan left, didn't he leave five tips for us? He said that when we encounter an invincible situation and fall into a place where we can never turn over, we can take it apart and find a way out. Why don't we open it now and take a look?" Suddenly, Ji Feiyu seemed to think of something, and raised his head to Ye Zhengxiong in the public court.
Hearing this, everyone's bodies shook slightly, and they all looked up at Ji Feiyu.
When Ye Fan was taken away by the acting king, he did explain some things to them. And he also thought of a way out for them, put it in the bag, divided it into five parts, and handed it to them, so that the five of them could keep it on their behalf. It is said that if Hao Yunzheng does not come back in the future, when the Qincha Mansion cannot gain a foothold, it can solve the urgent need.
"Could it be that my Qinchafu has reached the point where it will always be like turning over so soon?" Wang Lung muttered softly with a hint of gloom in his eyes.
"It seems that this is the only way to do it. Ye Zhengxiong hesitated for a moment, as if he had made up his mind, and sighed: "The four of you open your bag first and take a look." ”
Ji Feiyu, Wang Long, Tian Feng, and Jin Hongyi glanced at each other, all feeling the helplessness in each other's eyes. In the end, the four of them took out a bag from their waists at the same time.
Taking out the bag, the four of them couldn't help but hesitate again, and carefully thought about the situation today. When they really couldn't find the slightest way out, they finally untied the trick at the same time.
Ji Feiyu opened the bag and took out a yellow piece of paper with a big character written on it [abandon]
Seeing this word, Ji Feiyu was slightly stunned, obviously not knowing what this meant.
Wang Lung opened the bag and also got a word [heart]
Tian Feng's [right]
Jin Hongyi's is [Bao]
The four of them all had a trace of confusion in their eyes, and they didn't understand what this meant at all, and at the same time looked up at Ye Zhengxiong, who was sitting in the public court.
"What's on it?" Ye Zhengxiong couldn't help but chuckle in his heart when he saw the appearance of a few people, but he still asked calmly.
"Abandoned"
"Heart"
"Paula"
"Right"
One by one, the four of them began to read out the big characters on their bags, and after finishing, they looked even more confused.
What does it mean to "abandon, heart, protect, and ...... power"? Ye Zhengxiong obviously didn't understand this meaning either, so he couldn't help frowning and muttering to himself with some doubts.
"My lord, Lord Ye Fan is too mysterious, and what he does is also elusive. Maybe the tips in the hands of a few others are nothing, and the most important part should still be in the hands of adults. Why don't you open your share and take a look?" Jin Hongyi saw the situation, and without hesitation, he took a step forward and said.
Ye Zhengxiong's brows furrowed even tighter. To be honest, if he could, he really didn't want to open the bag in his hand. Because he really did that, it proves that the current Qinchafu has no place to stand. This is something he doesn't want to admit even if he kills him. For a moment, his whole body fell into silence.
After hesitating for a long time, finally, Ye Zhengxiong sighed, took out a bag from his waist, opened it and pulled out an envelope, frowned and watched.
"Hehe, Erlang. I had already expected that if the Acting King left one day, he would definitely take me away. Because he doesn't worry about me. However, I will always be loyal to the Celestial Empire, and this can be seen by heaven and earth, and by the sun and the moon. Now that I'm leaving, the third and fourth brothers are not here, and the Qinchafu can only rely on you to support it.
Today, it has long been in an undercurrent, and after the acting king leaves, it will definitely be a big chaos. Murong Tian and Gongsun Yuan, the two bastards, have a lot of ambitions, and they will definitely take the opportunity to rebel. Without the help of the third and fourth brothers, and I'm not here, you may not be able to really deal with these two. After all, whether they are strong or powerful, they are only above the Qinchafu, not under the Qinchafu, and it is almost impossible to escape their hands.
By the time you read this letter, it may be that the Celestial Empire has become a mess. It may be that the Chinchafu is already on the cusp of the beacon fire, and there is no longer any way out. In the face of such a situation, even if the third brother comes back, it may be impossible to save. Although the third brother is witty, he is not the legendary god of war, the son of the army, and he has never been able to control the overall situation of the world. The only thing you can do now, and the most important thing to do, is only one, abstain and keep your mind. I would rather give up the power of the Chinchafu and give up the future of the Chinchafu. But you have to keep the hearts and minds of the people.
The third brother once said that those who win the hearts of the people win the world. The people's will is invincible in the world. If he still holds his ground now and is unwilling to give up, the final situation of the Qinchafu can only be destroyed. Even if the third brother comes back, he can't escape death. However, as long as you protect the hearts of the people, the third brother will have a chance to turn things around. Just as the third brother said, it is easy to obtain a thousand troops, but it is difficult to find the hearts of the people! The Qinchafu has always been orthodox, and as long as it wins the hearts of the people, everything is still possible. Remember, remember ......"
Ye Zhengxiong looked at the contents of the letter, and his face looked extremely ugly. Eventually, he took a deep breath and finally put down the letter in his hand.
"My lord, what is written on it?" Below, Wang Lung asked with some urgency.
"See for yourselves. Ye Zhengxiong threw the letter to everyone. Everyone flipped through them one by one, and then they all fell silent.
"Okay, a few of you come out with me, and I'm going to observe the current situation in Tian'an City again. Finally, after a period of silence, Ye Zhengxiong suddenly got up, lifted the silver snatch in front of him, and said.
The four of them looked up at the same time, and when they saw Ye Zhengxiong's appearance that he seemed to have made up some kind of decision, they were all slightly stunned, and then they hugged their fists at the same time.
Soon, a group of five people left the Chincha Mansion, followed by more than 100 neatly arranged soldiers, walking on the wide streets of Cheonan City.
The once bustling streets are still full of people. However, today's streets can no longer be described as bustling and prosperous, but can only be described as overcrowded and full of disaster victims.
Cheonanseong, the largest city in the world. Accommodating a million people is not a problem. However, Cheonan'an is now overcrowded with millions of people. When the food was exhausted, the people, who had not eaten or drunk for two days, lay everywhere, with little strength.
Seeing Ye Zhengxiong's travel team, many victims rushed up, holding broken bowls, holding their hands, and begging for money.
The wide streets are crowded with victims. The surrounding inns and attics have been desolate.
Ye Zhengxiong and the four protectors were riding on horses, looking at all this, their eyes were a little gloomy and a little desolate.
A hundred soldiers who followed behind them stepped forward to block the victims, clearing a passage for the road ahead.
The people's wails came, and the entire Cheonan City was in a miserable scene.
Ye Zhengxiong took the people behind him to the east city gate, stepped on the city wall, and looked out of the city. I saw a neat army lined up outside the city, densely packed, like ants, black and pressing, completely blocking the east city gate.
On the city wall, although all the guards did not speak, they still stood on their posts one by one. However, these people are not very good-looking. And all of them have slethered yellow faces, obviously they haven't eaten enough for a long time, and they are in a weak state.
"My lord, why are you here?" Seeing Ye Zhengxiong, the general guarding the city hurriedly walked over and bowed with his fists clenched.
"How long has it been since they had a full meal?" Ye Zhengxiong turned his head to look at the general guarding the city and asked lightly.
The general guarding the city was a middle-aged man, but when he spoke, he was still full of energy. Looking at the momentum faintly emanating from his body, it turned out to be a congenital powerhouse. Hearing this, he hurriedly said: "Report to your lordship, half a month before his death, after the food dried up, these soldiers could only drink some gruel every day. And you can only drink half full at every meal. Eat only once a day. ”
Ye Zhengxiong's brows furrowed, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and said, "Is it true that I am so unbearable in Tian'an City that I can't even afford to provide a meal for a soldier?"
The general guarding the city trembled, and hurriedly said, "Your Excellency...... Now the situation is critical. These soldiers can drink a bowl of gruel a day, which is already calculated. The people in the city could barely drink even a mouthful of gruel. Some people even rely on weeds and bark. ”
Hearing this, Ye Zhengxiong took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, and finally stopped talking.
When he looked up again, he glanced at the army below. Seeing the black oppression, he finally asked in a low voice, "Do these soldiers have any thoughts in their hearts?"
The general seemed to hear something from this, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Report to your lordship, some of the recruits have already flinched. However, most of the first army in Cheonanseong were the ones who had participated in the rehabilitation five years ago, and they believed in the Celestial Empire and the Chin Cha Mansion, so there was no change for the time being. I think I should be able to continue to protect my Cheonancheng. ”
Ye Zhengxiong nodded slightly, turned around, stretched out his hand and patted the shoulder of the general guarding the city, and said, "Very good." Remember, no matter what, you must stick to the city. Tell the order to go down, and not to relax at all. As for the food matter, I will continue to think of a way. Also, don't be slow with the people of the city. My Celestial Empire will not give up any of the people of the Celestial Empire, and my Qinchafu will not give up any of the people of the Celestial Empire. How much food is left, take it all out, and resist these few days first, so that everyone can eat a few full meals. As for the future, I'll figure it out, you know. ”
When the general defending the city heard this, he immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Thank you for your kindness." ”
Ye Zhengxiong nodded again, finally didn't say more, waved his hand, and said, "Follow me to Beicheng District." ”
