Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 241 Suppressing the Rebellion and Class Teacher

"Okay, okay, Marquis Xiangwu, now is not the time to talk about this. The key now is how can we defeat King Yong. After all, he is not easy to deal with." Li Zhongdao

"Well, it's up to my eldest brother. Brother, it's time to start your performance. From now on, you have the final say here. You don't have any objections, right?" Ling Buhuo said.

"Haha, of course there is no such thing. Who doesn't know that the former general is a man who is good at fighting? With the former general here, I feel at ease. I will leave everything to the former general." Li Zhong said with a smile.

"Okay, actually whether it can work this time depends on whether the card in your hand can play its due role. Why don't you let someone try it?" Ling Buyi asked.

"Okay, brother, don't worry. I'll ask Lu Cheng to make a trip. It shouldn't be a big problem." Ling Buhuo said.

"Don't be too happy, King Yong doesn't only have one son." Ling Busuo said

"Brother, although he has many sons, he only has one eldest son, so as long as this news is released, his sons will definitely be suspicious of each other."

"Even if there are smart people among them, it will never stop other brothers from being stupid. Won't we have a chance then?" Ling Buhuo said.

Ling Busuo nodded directly after hearing this, and then waved his hand. Upon seeing this, Ling Buhuo bowed directly, then turned and left, leaving the Zhongjun tent to Ling Busuo and Zhongshui Hou.

Ling Buhuo didn't care what they said, because even if the Li family had other thoughts, he was confident that he could suppress them, so it didn't matter to him.

At this time, he had some expectations in his heart that the Li family could give him some surprises.

After receiving the order, Lu Cheng set off. Since he was not far away, he arrived quickly. King Yong still showed respect to Lu Cheng's arrival and met him in the Chinese military tent.

"Tell me, what does that boy Ling Buhuo want to do?" King Yong asked directly

"Your Majesty, my Marquis said that if you want to save the prince's life, surrender as soon as possible and come back to the capital with us to listen to His Majesty's remarks." Lu Cheng bowed and said.

"Hmph! As expected of Ling Buhuo, there is no wrong nickname in the world. When it comes to sinisterness, he is really number one, but I have to disappoint him."

"I don't just have one son, I have many sons. What's the harm if one dies? He wants to use his son's life to blackmail me. He is dreaming!" King Yong said

"Your Majesty, don't speak so early. Anyway, I have brought the words of my Marquis. As for what you want to choose, that is your business."

"Your Majesty, if you don't have any other instructions, I'll go back first." Lu Cheng said again

"Hmph! Go back and tell him that if you want me to admit defeat, you have to fight with real swords and guns. It's completely impossible to rely on these weird tricks!" King Yong said.

"It's the prince. Remember it, I will tell you what you said to the prince truthfully." After Lu Cheng finished speaking, he turned around and left the Zhongjun tent.

After he left, King Yong's face completely lost the calmness he had just now. At this time, he frowned, not knowing what to do.

Yes, King Yong saw Ling Buhuo's tricks very clearly, but it was useless for him to see clearly this time, because this time Ling Buhuo used conspiracy.

He was sure that his sons would be suspicious of each other. He was betting on human nature, so there was no good solution at all, and there was nothing he could do.

When Lu Cheng returned to the city, he directly told Ling Buhuo everything.

"Haha, thank you for your hard work. You did a good job. You can go back and rest first." Ling Buhuo said with a smile.

"Master Hou, is this really useful?" Lu Cheng couldn't help but ask

"Haha, of course it's useless just like this. It also requires the cooperation of my elder brother. Okay, go back and recuperate first. You will know soon whether it is useful or not." Ling Buhuo said

After hearing this, Lu Cheng bowed directly and then withdrew. After he left, Ling Buhuo did not delay and went directly to the Zhongjun tent.

"Brother, the matter has been settled. The next thing is up to you." Ling Buhuo said

"Okay, you've brought things to this point, what else is there to say? Okay, that's it, you go back first." Ling Busuo said

Ling Buhuo didn't say anything after hearing this, and turned around to leave. After thinking about it all night, Ling Buhuo launched a counterattack at dawn the next day.

This move caught King Yong off guard. After all, according to common sense, if he only arrived yesterday, he would have to practice for a few days before talking. Unexpectedly, Ling Buyi did not follow common sense.

He had been attacking the city for many days with no results, and reinforcements came to the city. Just when morale was low, the result was predictable, and he suffered a big loss.

Originally, this defeat was nothing, at most it was a small setback, but I couldn't help but have other ideas, so in the next battle, King Yong failed repeatedly and was no match at all.

Finally, Ling Buhuo saw King Yong who had been tied up in his tent.

"His Royal Highness King Yong, we finally met. I don't know whether you are satisfied with my plan, but you are still satisfied with it. Have you changed your previous views?" Ling Buhuo said.

"Hmph, Ling Buhuo, you are such an insidious villain. Do you think that without Ling Buyi's methods, your devious tricks can succeed? Stop dreaming!" King Yong said

"Hahaha, His Highness King Yong, I just think you are complimenting me." Ling Buhuo laughed.

"Ling Buhuo, don't think you have won. I am a veteran who has followed His Majesty to conquer the world. Your Majesty will not take my life. We are not finished yet!" King Yong said harshly.

"Yes, you are absolutely right, but King Yong, you have forgotten that because of your rebellion, we brothers have made great achievements. Do you think we will still be afraid of you?"

"Who can you rely on now? Your old brothers in the court? Are they eager to end their relationship with you as soon as possible?"

"What's more, they will try to make you shut up. Now you are nothing but a mere empty airs. Those so-called connections of yours have become your talisman!" Ling Buhuo said.

After hearing this, King Yong's face turned blue and white. He didn't say anything for a while. Ling Buhuo had no intention of talking anymore and asked Lu Cheng to take him away. Then he stood up directly and went straight to the Zhongjun tent. At this time, Ling Buyi had been waiting in the Zhongjun tent for a long time.

"How's it going? Have you asked anything?" Ling Bu asked.

"Brother, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. He's still very confident now. He thinks that the old brothers in the court will help him intercede. I guess he can only give up his illusions when he returns to the capital."

"Brother, I know you are anxious, but you really can't see him right now. I know your temper very well. If you see him, you will definitely kill him." Ling Buhuo said

"What if I have to see him?" Ling Buyi said with a gloomy expression.

"Brother, if you insist on seeing him, I can't stop you, but don't forget that he is not the only enemy of yours, so do you really want to go?" Ling Buhuo asked.

"Well, that's all, just watch him, don't let him die, it will be too easy for him." Ling Buyi thought for a long time, and finally gave up interrogating King Yong.

"Brother, don't worry. He Yong died this time because of his relationship. Even if His Majesty wants to let him go, the government and the public will never agree." Ling Buhuo said.

"Well, I hope so. By the way, you have made great contributions this time. What do you want? Speaking of which, adding a county prince should be enough, right?" Ling Busuo said

"Brother, I don't want a title this time. A Guannei Marquis is enough. After all, brother, you don't have a title yet. It would be wrong if I added a county title to you." Ling Buyu said.

"Hmph, I didn't expect you to care about this. Tell me, what do you want?" Ling Busuo asked.

"Brother, I have been an official in the court for so long, but I haven't actually gone to the morning court yet? It's a pity now that I think about it. If I could go to the morning court, then I would be satisfied." Ling Buhuo said

"Well, your appetite is not small, but are your achievements this time enough? So be it. But what happens in the end depends on His Majesty's decision." Ling Busuo said

"Thank you, brother. Brother, if there is nothing else, I will go back first. There are still some things that have not been dealt with." Ling Buhuo said

After hearing this, Ling Buhuo waved his hand directly. Upon seeing this, Ling Buhuo walked out of the Chinese military tent. After returning to his tent, a smile appeared on Ling Buhuo's lips.

As long as he can achieve his wish this time, he will really have a firm foothold in this court from now on, and he will never have to pretend to be powerful.

Time passed slowly, and after cleaning up the remnants, the Ling brothers set off directly back to the capital. After all, this was now the territory of the Marquis of Zhongshui.

Just when they returned, the good news had arrived in the capital. Wendi looked at the document in his hand, and the expression on his face changed unpredictably. After a while, he put down the good news.

"Have you received any news about Feng Yi County? Why did Zi Sheng's army delay for so long? Is there any hidden secret behind it?" Emperor Wen asked.

"Your Majesty, according to the news sent back, there should be something wrong with the craftsmen sent by the general as the prisoner, but there is something fishy here."

"Those executed craftsmen had had personal contact with the entourage of Marquis Xiangwu before. It is unknown what they said specifically." Jiang Chongdao

"Marquis Xiangwu, what a good Marquis Xiangwu. Okay, seal this matter and don't let anyone know about it. Go ahead." Emperor Wen frowned and said

After hearing this, Jiang Chong hurriedly bowed and then exited the imperial study. After he left, Emperor Wen said to himself, "Zisheng, Zisheng, do you have to reveal what happened back then?"

After he finished speaking, he saw another memorial, which was also submitted by Ling Busuoshan alone. The content above was very simple, just stating Ling Buhuo's wishes.

Emperor Wen frowned and thought for a while, then slowly relaxed his brows, and then began to write the imperial edict.

When the edict arrived at the He family, He Zhaojun was still a little surprised as to why there was an edict passed to her. But when she heard the content of the edict, she collapsed on the ground.

Seeing this, Changshi Cao said with some unbearability, "Jun An Cheng, please show your condolences. You must cheer up and don't let down His Majesty's expectations of you. Your He family is still counting on you."

After hearing these words, He Zhaojun came back to his senses a little, then stood up and sent Cao Changshi away, and then returned to his room in a daze, obviously unable to accept this cruel reality.

As for the outcome of this battle, there were people like He Zhaojun and others, such as Shao Shang, who were very happy at this time.

"Fu Deng, hurry up, go and prepare some festive things. My husband is already on his way back. When he comes back, we can hang out so that we don't run out of things later."

"Lianfang, please inform me to clean the inside and outside of the mansion. Also, I'm happy today. All servants will receive double monthly payments this month." Shaoshang said with a smile on his face.

Fu Deng and Lian Fang naturally did not neglect, and then the entire Xiangwu Marquis Mansion became lively.

At this time, in the Li family, when Li Xu learned about the He family, the expression on his face was very complicated. Li Ze on the side asked, "There is a letter from your uncle. He asked you to marry He Zhaojun."

"What? Father, did I hear you correctly? My uncle asked me to marry her, this?" Li Xu said in surprise

"I know what you are thinking, but one moment and another, now that the He family has been in bad luck, some things will be over, right?" Li Zedao

"This, father, this son does know, but He Zhaojun is not so easy to marry now, although it seems that he is taking advantage now."

"But in the long run, there will be a lot of trouble. If the He family wants to regain its reputation in the future, we will have to help. Given our family's situation, we may not be able to do it." Li Xu said

"Don't worry, your uncle has already thought about this. The youngest son of the He family is only five years old, and it will be ten years before he reaches adulthood."

"And after ten years, if our family can't afford this, then we don't have to think about anything else. We can just eat and wait for death. Besides, your uncle won't watch." Li Zedao

"Okay, father, then I'll give it a try. But I did it so well last time, so I guess things won't go very smoothly." Li Xu said

"Don't worry, Xu'er. Although He Zhaojun is a little willful, he is not a fool. There are not many choices in front of her. I believe you can do it." Li Zedao

"Father, it's good if you don't scold me normally. Now you suddenly praise me. I'm really uncomfortable at this moment. Did I do something wrong?" Li Xu said.

"Humph, I really can't get on the stage. You can't bear to praise you even a few times? Get out of here and do some serious business. If you fail this time, you can go directly to the ancestral hall when you come back!" Li Ze scolded with a smile.

"Come on, these words still sound comfortable. Father, don't worry, I will definitely be able to hold this beauty back, and I won't let you down." After Li Xu finished speaking, he turned around and left with a smile.

Looking at his son's leaving figure, Li Ze's face flashed with solemnity, because he did not tell his son the truth, which meant that Li Xu did not know the truth.

In fact, he originally wanted to say something, but he knew his son's character. If he knew about it, He Zhaojun would definitely notice it, so he simply didn't say anything.
