Chapter 183: Sending troops
"In this case, what is the best plan for Zhong Aiqing to kill two birds with one stone?"
Lu Yunzhao stared at everyone with burning eyes.
"I want to share my sorrows for you." The civil and military officials replied impassionedly, and discussed it in a gossipy manner.
"The minister thinks that General Zhao Yue's military achievements are outstanding, and it is more than enough to deal with the small country of the Northern Underworld, please support Your Majesty."
"The minister agrees with what Lord Zhang said."
"The ministers seconded the proposal." The ministers kowtowed, and the matter was settled in dust.
Lu Yunzhao looked at the reaction of the ministers, bowed slightly, and his gaze fell on Zhao Yue's body.
Zhao Yue's heart sank, knowing that this was deliberately done by His Majesty, in order to consume the power of Old Yan and weaken the Northern Underworld and Southern Xinjiang by the way.
Killing three birds with one stone, what a good strategy!
But Zhao Yue had no choice but to reply:
"The minister is willing to serve the dogs and horses, and swear allegiance to His Majesty!"
Lu Yunzhao nodded casually: "That's very good!" I will set out on the same day, Aiqing must swear to protect Shangyuan Jiangshan Sheji, and live up to the trust I place on you! โ
Zhao Yue lowered his eyes and made a respectful gesture.
"Yes, the minister must live up to his mission."
"Good! In this case, I will give you half a month's vacation, and after half a month, I will personally send General Zhao out of the city and on the road! "
Lu Yunzhao said with a smile.
"Obey the order!" Zhao Yue bowed and said.
"Hmm. I'm tired, let's retreat. โ
After Lu Yunzhao finished speaking, Shi Shiran left.
The civil and military officials respectfully watched Lu Yunzhao's back disappear,
Only then did he get up and leave the Jinluan Palace.
Zhao Yue was about to leave the palace, but was stopped by a little maid.
He knew this person, and he was the personal maid of his sister Concubine Qin Zhao Shuya.
"The general stays, Concubine Qin is invited."
As soon as Lu Xun stepped into Concubine Qin's bedroom, he saw Zhao Shuya hurriedly running into the door.
"Brother-brotherโโ!" Zhao Shuya shouted excitedly.
"What are you panicking about?"
Zhao Shuya hurriedly grabbed Zhao Yue's arm and looked at Zhao Yue cautiously,
The worried tone revealed anxiety and worry: "Brother, are you okay?" โ
Zhao Yue touched Zhao Shuya's head and said with a smile:
"What can I do? Don't worry about it. "
Zhao Shuya shook her head and insisted: "I heard that Your Majesty is going to send you to lead the troops to fight, no matter what, you must take good care of yourself." "
"You...... Alas, okay, okay, I got it. Zhao Yue sighed, and agreed with warmth in his heart.
Zhao Shuya finally breathed a sigh of relief and patted her chest.
Laughing: "That's good." โ
Zhao Yue rubbed Zhao Shuya's head and asked, "By the way, is there anything to find me today?" "
Zhao Shuya remembered this and hurriedly said:
"This is a birthday gift I wanted to give to my brother, but now that the war is imminent, I can't care about it, so I ask my brother to accept it."
Zhao Yue took the brocade box and opened it suspiciously.
What caught my eye was two swords, the blades of which were cold and flickering, and they were extremely sharp.
"Where did this come from?"
Zhao Yue took out two swords and observed left and right.
Zhao Shuya explained: "I asked someone to inquire from all over the world and bought it from a farmer.
These two swords are forged from the best black iron, and they are extremely powerful, so they are perfect for my brother to use for self-defense. "
Zhao Yue listened, nodded, and said with a gentle smile: "Shu Ya has a heart." "
......
Zhao Yue left Zhao Shuya's dormitory and returned to his mansion.
changed into a set of strong clothes, carrying a saber at his waist and a long sword on his back, looking at himself in the mirror, the corners of Zhao Yue's mouth were raised, and his eyes were warm.
After a while, Zhao Yue thought about it and wrote a letter.
He was afraid that he would never return from this trip, and it would be difficult to ensure that Shuya would be safe and happy for the rest of her life.
After the letter was written, he Zhao Yue handed it over to the little servant next to him, and asked him to send it to the palace half a month later, when he set off to fight.

After the letter was written, he Zhao Yue handed it over to the little servant next to him, and asked him to send it to the palace half a month later, when he set off to fight.
Half a month later, Zhao Yue led an army of 10,000 and set out on a mighty expedition.
Lu Yunzhao stood on the palace wall, looking at the army in the distance, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth.
The letter was also delivered to Zhao Shuya as promised.
Zhao Shuya received the letter and couldn't wait to unfold it.
It reads:
"Shuya, don't be surprised after you read it, you will know these things sooner or later,
You just need to keep in mind that no matter what time it is, don't trust Lu Yunzhao!
Our father's whereabouts are still unknown, and even the corpse has not been found, and this matter must be inseparable from him!
She doesn't deserve your trust! Shuya protect yourself! โ
Seeing the last warning, Zhao Shuya couldn't help but redden.
muttered, "It's not worth it, why don't you think one or two of you think she's not worth it?" โ
"Daddy and Mom have obviously traveled far away, why are you all sure that they are dead?"
"Besides, how can this matter be related to Your Majesty? He loves me so much and respects my parents so much? โ
Zhao Shuya was very puzzled, she couldn't figure it out, why someone always asked her to be wary of Lu Yunzhao......
Zhao Shuya was upset, put down the letterhead, and sat at the table in a daze.
Lu Yunzhao knew that if Lu Xun was sent to fight, Zhao Shuya would be very worried.
watched Zhao Yue lead the troops on the city wall, and went to the bedroom of Concubine Qin Zhao Shuya.
Zhao Shuya was still stunned, when she heard a commotion outside.
"Your Majesty has arrivedโ"
Zhao Shuya immediately hid the letter paper, stood up, and walked out the door.
Lu Yunzhao walked slowly in a dragon robe.
"See Your Majesty."
Zhao Shuya fell to her knees.
"Ai Concubine, please be exempt."
Lu Yunzhao helped Zhao Shuya to get up.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zhao Shuya obediently agreed.
Lu Yunzhao looked at the haggard Zhao Shuya, his eyes were full of bloodshots, and he couldn't help asking:
"Why doesn't Concubine Ai's face look good, did she not rest last night?"
Lu Yunzhao helped Zhao Shuya to walk into the house and asked with concern.
Zhao Shuya said softly:
"The concubine is fine, but I'm worried about my brother."
Lu Yunzhao frowned slightly, stretched out his hand and stroked Zhao Shuya's supple black green silk, gently held Zhao Shuya's hand, stared deeply into her eyes, and solemnly promised:
"Don't worry, I will send another 50,000 troops to reinforce General Zhao, and ensure that General Zhao returns in triumph."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhao Shuya smiled with satisfaction.
Then he looked up at Lu Yunzhao and asked, "Has my brother already set off?" โ
Lu Yunzhao's face still kept a smile:
"Well, I personally sent him out of the Imperial City in the morning."
