Exile opening: I won with the Universal Maker

Chapter 292

North village entrance of Xiaogang village.

On the busy construction site, Xiao Zhuo was discussing the construction plan of the city wall with Feng Zhang. Yang Cong ran over and said, "My lord, there is news from the capital. Your Majesty is going on tour in disguise. I heard that he arrived here in two days."

Feng Zhang said to Xiao Zhuo: "Master, Your Majesty probably came to look for you."

It has been more than half a month since King Qi's army retired.Now that it was the beginning of July, Emperor Qi Ming didn't go out with much fanfare, and who else could he look for besides his son.

Xiao Zhuo didn't respond, he pondered for a moment, and said to Yang Cong: "You and Feng Zhang supervise the construction of the city, I want to leave for a while."

Yang Cong was puzzled, rubbed the back of his head and asked, "Master, His Majesty is coming to see you, why didn't you see him?"

"My adoptive father died because of him. If I see him, I will be disrespectful to the dead adoptive father." Xiao Zhuo replied lightly.

"Hasn't Your Majesty already announced to the world that he didn't persecute Emperor Yongde back then, and he didn't even know that Emperor Yongde set himself on fire..."

Yang Cong still wanted to persuade, but was pulled aside by Feng Zhang and said in a low voice: "Sister Cong, don't you see that the lord is in trouble? Let's stop talking nonsense, this is all the lord's family business. When the majesty comes down, we will say that the lord is not here. That's right."

Xiao Zhuo returned to the city mansion, and saw a group of women in the hall chatting non-stop, and Shen Yuexi's cry came from the crowd.The surrounding guards all lowered their heads, listless.

"No, you have been following me, what a credit," Shen Yuexi said, "This time I'm going to the north to meet your king, just treat it as a collective holiday for everyone. I'll give you 2000 taels of gold and [-] pieces of silk. You Don't refuse, give it to everyone."

Shen Yuexi understood what had happened, and said to Qiang Lin: "No problem, you can rest assured. I am with my husband, and I have cavalry protection, so nothing will happen."

Shen Yuexi turned her head and said, "My sister is going too?"

"Well, let's lead [-] cavalry." Xiao Zhuo calculated, "The four counties of Xiliang are fiefdoms of the Mei family. If there are too many troops, the Queen may become suspicious."

Now she has a lot of money and confidence.Qiang Lin is her subordinate, and she has to personally come for the reward.She was too busy to reward each one, so I gave them all to Qiang Lin and let him distribute them to the hidden guards.

Xiao Zhuo didn't know what happened, and looked at Qiang Lin who was standing upright beside him: "What's wrong?"

"Crying like this," Xiao Zhuo smiled and wiped away the tears on her face with the back of her finger, "It's okay, let's buy another one."

Shen Lan next to him said: "I wonder if I can advise the queen."

"But it has the best bark," Shen Yuexi was still very sad, "I just made a new cage for it."

"Do you have something important?" Shen Yuexi looked at Qiang Lin.

"Okay...well." Shen Yuexi raised her sleeves to wipe away her tears.

"Those people?" Geng Hong smiled, "They just lived under the command of the former king, so they can't be called counselors. Some men came to the queen to seek positions, but the queen said that men and women are different, so they refused gone."

Qiang Lin showed a troubled look and said: "The master is going to Xiliang this time, and the subordinate... I'm afraid I won't be able to follow."

Geng Hong sighed and said: "Although the queen is strong, she cannot support her alone. She often has to handle all the military affairs alone, and we generals can't help. It would be great if there is a military adviser who can assist the queen."

Qiang Lin came to Xiao Zhuo and saluted, "I have met King An."

Wuqian Qingqi was so fast that he arrived in Leshan County in only two days.

Xiao Zhuo said: "In this case, let's go to Yongwei to see the Queen first, and we can discuss the next plan to attack Nanping."

Xiao Zhuo turned to look at the two empty birdcages on the table next to him, and asked, "Thrush..."

The guard of Leshan was Geng Hong, who was in charge of transporting food for them before. Seeing the cavalry coming, he opened the city gate to welcome them.

Geng Hong looked at Shen Lan with some surprise, and the metal prosthetic hand exposed under her left sleeve.

He said vaguely: "If Mrs. Shen understands the tactics of war, the queen may...probably be able to agree. We warriors actually don't know what the queen thinks."

She really wanted to go to Xiliang to find Mei Dai and Ji Yunyan.But just came back from Shengzhou, she planned to rest at home for a while before going.Since Xiao Zhuo mentioned it, it's okay to go.

When the people nearby heard it, they all came over.Shen Lan said: "If my brother-in-law goes to Xiliang, I want to go too."

Qiang Lin swears allegiance to the god, if she insists on not letting Qiang Lin leave, Qiang Lin can only stay.Now that she readily agreed, Qiang Lin was so moved that he knelt down and said, "Master, Qiang Lin will hurry back as soon as possible."

Qiang Lin didn't dare to say anything, and pointed to the air with his finger.

When Shen Yuexi asked about the recent battle, Geng Hong said: "The queen fought several times with the Xirong people in Zhangwu, and she barely defended Zhangwu. Now the Xirong people still occupy Nanping City. The queen asked us to defend Leshan, Zhangwu. We can't hold on." , she went back to Yongwei first."

Qiang Lin followed her and waited in the corridor, Qiang Lin said: "Master, please stop, I will tell my subordinates something."

Shen Yuexi stopped, turned to Qiang Lin and asked, "What's the matter?"

Shen Yuexi thought of the counselors in front of Xiliang King Meicheng before, and asked, "Where are the counselors of Xiliang King before?"

Shen Lan said: "I heard that the Queen of Xiliang is fighting with Xirong. I have learned some art of war, and maybe I can help her a little bit. It is also a reward for her helping us many times."

Qiang Lin thanked him again and again, and went back to his room to make some arrangements.

He knew that Shen Lan was the wife of Prince Jing's son Xiao Kai.Back then Xiao Kai was the one who killed Mei Dai's mother and concubine, so I don't know what Mei Dai would think.

"I'm just inexperienced," Mrs. Li's voice was the loudest in the crowd. "Open the two cage doors and put them together. Once you scare it, it will fly to the opposite cage."

Qiang Lin is her most trusted confidant, and she is used to Qiang Lin being by her side.Now that Qiang Lin suddenly said that she could not follow, she knew that something extremely important must have happened.

Early the next morning, Shen Yuexi and Xiao Zhuo had dinner, rectified the army horses, and led [-] cavalry to march westward, accompanied by Shen Lan.

Shen Yuexi said: "In that case, shall we ride lightly?"

The master and the slave were heart-to-heart, Qiang Lin did not hide anything, and told her the truth directly, "King Doma has been attacking Xiliang, and he has borrowed troops from his subordinate king many times. The king disagrees. There was a battle between the two armies a few days ago. Your Majesty was seriously injured. The subordinates only recently got the news, and they want to go back and visit him when he is dying."

At this time Shen Yuexi ran out from the crowd, cried and stretched out her arms to hug him and said, "Baby flew away."

After Mrs. Li finished speaking, Shen Yuexi's cries became louder in the crowd.

"Okay, then I'll write a letter to Sister Mei to say hello." After Shen Yuexi finished speaking, she turned and walked back to the back hall.

Xiao Zhuo said to Shen Yuexi: "When the Second Prince was besieging the city, the Queen personally led the cavalry to help. We should show something."

Shen Yuexi said to Shen Lan: "Sister, let's go to Yongwei to meet Sister Mei first."

"I'll take you to Xiliang," Xiao Zhuo touched the top of her head, "Didn't you say you want to find Sister Ji, she is in Yongwei now, and the Queen of Xiliang is also here."

Yongwei was originally occupied by Lin Kui, but now Lin Kui has left with his army and returned Yongwei to Xiliang.

Now she could vaguely guess what Shen Lan was thinking.

Before when Shen Lan said that she had nowhere to go, she said that she should let Shen Lan live with her, but Shen Lan said that was impossible.Since then, Shen Lan has been thinking about her own way out.

It's just that she didn't expect that Shen Lan's idea was to become a strategist who made plans and strategized.

It really took her by surprise.
