Chapter 52
Dark clouds topped.

The hazy sky is so dark that it makes people feel uneasy.

"The general has an order, garrison the troops to rest, and then listen to the order! The general has an order, garrison the troops to rest..." The ordering soldiers galloped on horseback, running from the front to the end of the team, conveying the general's military orders.

General Liao Hu entered the city to report to His Majesty.

Without the emperor's military order, no soldiers can enter the city.

Liao Hu must be restored to life before he can lead the team back to his military camp.

The soldiers were accustomed to setting up camp and cooking pots.

At the end of the line, several soldiers pulled out the wheels of the prison van from the mud and cursed one after another.

"What kind of broken road is this? You can drive through it without showing your head."

"Not to mention the heavy rain a few days ago, plus our team's march, it's no wonder the road is so good!"

"You said that this weather was a severe drought in the past few months. Not a drop of rain fell. The water level dropped and the people suffered. But now it is getting better. One heavy rain followed another..."

"If you ask me, the only ones who are unlucky are us ordinary people. Anyway, those in power are not guilty of drought or flood."

"That's not necessarily true. Isn't the person in the car also powerful? Isn't he still our prisoner?"

"I said, do you know who he is, just to say he is powerful?"

"The devil knows who he is. The general only said to keep an eye on him, but he didn't say his identity... Hey, little brother, who are you?!"

"..."

The soldiers were joking and poking the prisoners in the cage with muddy sticks.

I heard that this prisoner of war was quite unlucky. After being injured, he encountered a single-handed general. The general picked him up and captured him directly.

But the general did not reveal his identity. He just said that he should be given a separate cage so that he could live and be raised. He could not run away, let alone die.

The prisoners of war didn't say anything. They were mute all the way and allowed the soldiers to bully them without even making a sound.

The stick poked the wound, and blood oozed from the newly scabbed wound again, causing Zang Yuhua to tremble all over in pain.

But he didn't say anything.

His sinister eyes peered through the messy hair at the laughing soldiers, memorizing their faces one by one.

"Hey, look, someone is coming from the palace!"

Palace?

Zangyu's eyebrows darkened and he looked up.

In the direction of the city gate, I saw a strong man holding a horse, and immediately a young eunuch sat on the horse, walking staggeringly this way, followed by several guards wearing golden armor and golden masks.

"Golden armor?"

"Twelve Guards!"

"His Majesty's Twelve Guards?"

"The Twelve Guards are out of the city?"

"..."

The Twelve Guards are the emperor's secret guards. No one has seen their true colors except His Majesty.

And they have always been responsible for His Majesty's safety in the imperial city and never leave the city to perform tasks. Today is the first time they have left the city.

The little eunuch had red lips and white teeth, and was as beautiful as a girl. He walked straight to the prison car and got off his horse.

Zang Yuhua squinted her eyes and stared at the little eunuch, twitching the ends of her eyes unnoticeably.

——It’s a girl! !

Ling Xi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, tried hard to suppress the panic in her heart, and walked to the prison car calmly: "Who is your highest commander here?"

Everyone: "..."

Hidden hint of loyalty and displeasure, he snorted coldly: "The general is not here, who is in charge?"

"Hey, He Changzhang, General He..."

He Chongzhang is Liao Hu's son-in-law. Although he is a deputy general, he has a strong say in the army.

He heard that someone was coming from the palace, and when he went directly to the prison car, he realized something was wrong.

Others don't know Zang Yuhua's identity, but he knows it clearly.

That was the prince of Dongjiang Kingdom.

My father-in-law said that this person is of great use and must not make any mistakes.

Now that the people in the palace directly found the prison car, I'm afraid it's unusual.

He immediately went into battle with leather armor and led the men to kill them aggressively.

"Who is it? Who is arrogant in our Four Alley Army?!" He looked at Ling Xi's slender back and smiled disdainfully.

"It turns out you are a little father-in-law. Little father-in-law, I wonder who you are? What advice can you give me from the Four Alley Army?"

Ling Xi didn't even raise her eyes to look at him and waved her hand.

Qian Xizhong took out the imperial edict and opened it expressionlessly: "We are waiting for His Majesty's death to interrogate the prisoners!"

"Your Majesty? Ha!" He Changzhang did not accept the imperial edict at all. He pushed away Qian's loyal hand with his sword scabbard and smiled disdainfully: "Are you pretending to pass on the imperial edict? Our general has just entered the city to meet the emperor. Counting the time, now I just entered the imperial city, and I probably haven’t even seen His Majesty in person, but His Majesty’s imperial edict has already arrived?”

[Nonsense, if Liao Hu is here, how can we rob people? ! 】

He Changzhang's expression suddenly froze: "Who? Who is talking?"

【Of course it’s us! 】

Ling Xi turned around slowly, with a hint of teasing in her eyes.

【how?I can not hear you? 】

[Then we will tell you clearly! 】

【listen! 】

[We are here to rob people! ! 】

[What's going on? 】

[Won’t you rob? 】

[Then try it and see if you can stop us! 】

【…】

No one except He Chongzhang heard these little essays in Ling Xi's heart.

Therefore, in the eyes of everyone, He Chongzhang seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit, and his facial features became visibly ferocious.

Finally, he roared suddenly and drew his sword to show his loyalty to his superior Qian: "I'll see who of you dares!"

Qian Shizhong let go of his hand in a very cooperative manner, and the imperial edict fell to the ground with a "snap".

Everyone was startled by He Changzhang's reaction. Before they could react, they saw him draw his sword and strike down the imperial edict.

At this moment, everyone unconsciously touched their necks.

He Chongzhang!
Do you know what you are doing?
That is His Majesty’s imperial edict!

You actually used your sword to strike down His Majesty's... imperial edict! !

What is this behavior?
This is contempt for the imperial power and contempt for the emperor! !
Strictly speaking, it was a crime of genocide and genocide, implicating the nine clans! !
Before He Chongzhang could react, he thought everyone had heard Ling Xi's thoughts and were still roaring.

"What are you all doing here? Didn't you listen to them? Are you coming to rob someone?"

"The general has an order to guard and defend to the death. No one can be allowed to snatch this person away!"

"What are you still doing? Do it!"

"Capture them and wait for the general to interrogate them later before making a decision!!"

"..."

At this moment, both those who understood and those who did not understood were silent.

Lieutenant General He, you have an old general like Taishan who is not afraid of death. If you can die, don't hurt us!

If you continue what you say, we people will have our heads chopped off with you!

"Vice General He, stop quickly." A man quickly stepped forward and pressed He Changzhang's wrist: "They are people from the palace and His Majesty's imperial envoys. What are you doing!"

[Yeah, stop it! 】

[Just hand the person over to us obediently, and then send us away, and you can save your dog’s life! 】

[Vice general, general, haha! ! 】

[No matter how dazzling your achievements are, they are still nothing in front of His Majesty! 】

[If you want to talk about me, pretend to be a grandson if you don’t have the ability! 】

[Soldiers who don’t know whether to live or die are worthy of shouting with us! 】

【Pooh! 】

[The fox pretends to be the tiger's power! 】

【…】

This time, He Changzhang found the culprit.

He raised his sword and pointed it at Ling Xi: "You're still scolding me!"
