Chapter 171 Bai Li is the Savior of the Great Zhou

"It's nothing to worry about. Even her own father can't come in..."

"Lanzhi, let him in!"

"Marshal, are you awake?"

"Oh, if you don't wake up I'm going to call a doctor!"

"Okay, hand over the letter first!"

Bai Li got dressed in the room, and Wu Lanzhi came in with a piece of letter.

"Marshal, this is a letter from Qianxi."

Bai Li reached out to take it, and as soon as he saw the note, he knew it was delivered by a carrier pigeon.

When I unfolded it and looked at the handwriting, it was undoubtedly Namgoong Min's.

"Zhao Yuntian led the ape soldiers to attack our army and threatened to seek revenge on Bai Li. Please be careful of him."

"Zhao Yuntian?"

"He's not dead yet?"

Wu Lanzhi and Bai Li spoke almost at the same time. Bai Li didn't know how hard they hit her, but Wu Lanzhi knew it clearly.

She even delivered some of the fatal blows, and his fatal blow was the work of Gao Dani...

"You didn't die despite being seriously injured. You're truly a scourge that has lived for a thousand years!"

Wu Lanzhi said fiercely, her eyes blazing with fire when she thought of the humiliation she had suffered. Even after such a long time, her hatred for Zhao Yuntian and the others had not diminished at all!

If she hadn't met Marshal Bai, she and Gao Dani and her sisters would have continued to be bullied by beasts like zombies in the dark room, and would never have the chance to see their loved ones again until the moment of their death.

In this life, I will never have the opportunity like I have now, to avenge myself, to fight in the army and gain honor, and to bring glory to myself and my family.

"Lanzhi, next time I see him, I'll hand him over to you!"

Bai Li patted her shoulder to comfort her, and only then did he realize that her body was trembling slightly, which showed her inner shock and fear.

"Thank you, Bai Li. Without you, I wouldn't be who I am today."

"What nonsense are you talking about? You have been able to move on from the past, which means you have defeated yourself and overcome yourself.

A saint once said that your biggest enemy is yourself. Only when you overcome yourself can you overcome everything else.

Bai Li felt a little speechless. She didn't know how to comfort people!

After listening to this, Wu Lanzhi lowered her head and remained silent, as if she was carefully pondering Bai Li's words.

Bai Li frowned slightly, thinking about something else.

Where did Zhao Yuntian find the ape soldiers?

Didn’t they say that the emperor had uncovered the secrets of the King of Wei and had even the ape soldiers imprisoned?

It seems that the rebellious party has not been purged from the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty yet, and the emperor is not capable of doing his job!

Zhou Yu, who was far away in the capital, sneezed loudly. He smiled and said to the queen beside him, "It must be the little bastard from the Bai family who scolded me, just like last time!"

The Queen replied with a smile, "Your Majesty can be sure it's her? Could it be that you two have a telepathic connection?"

Zhou Yu frowned and said, "The Queen should be careful with her words. This kind of joke is not allowed. It will bring her a lot of trouble.

You know, she is the savior of our Great Zhou. Right now, we rely entirely on her to resist the foreign enemies!"

The Queen immediately knelt down and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I spoke nonsense in a moment of haste. I will never make such a joke again."

Zhou Yu gave the queen an ambiguous look, and the queen lowered her head even more.

The queen and he were cousins. They grew up together and got married naturally when they grew up. She became his principal wife, and when he ascended the throne, she became his queen.

The two of them have a deep relationship and understand each other's thoughts. Among all the women in the harem, the queen is the one Zhou Yu can trust the most.

If she had other thoughts...

Zhou Yu stood up, walked to the queen, helped her up, and gently held her in his arms.

"Ajin, you and I are one. At this critical juncture of the Great Zhou's survival, we must unite as husband and wife to jointly protect the Great Zhou."

The queen's voice choked with sobs, her body trembled slightly, and she hugged Zhou Yu tightly back.

"Brother Yu, I was wrong. I was acting like a little girl. You won't laugh at me, will you?"

"Silly boy, you are the only one in my heart from the beginning to the end. Don't let your imagination run wild in the future."

The emperor and the empress were being affectionate with each other when Eunuch Li suddenly rushed in.

"Damn this slave, I didn't see anything, I'm leaving now..."

"return!"

Zhou Yu let go of the queen. The queen looked shy with a blush on her face, like a young girl in love.

Zhou Yu's eyes flashed, and he said softly to her, "Sit aside and wait. Let me see what big deal this slave dog has. Otherwise..."

Eunuch Li had just turned back. When he heard this, he lowered his head and bent over, not daring to breathe.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Eunuch Li wiped his cold sweat, swallowed hard, and then said, "Good news from Yuanzhou, a fast horse has traveled eight hundred miles!"

"Quick, present it!"

Seeing Eunuch Li hesitantly taking out his sleeve, Zhou Yu strode forward, snatched it away, and began to look at it anxiously.

"Hahaha! Good!"

Before he finished reading it, Zhou Yu held up the memorial and smiled for the first time in a long time.

"Bai Li truly deserves to be the savior of my Great Zhou!"

The Queen was curious, "Your Majesty, what did the memorial say?"

"A great victory in Yuanzhou. Bai Li annihilated Simon's army of 100,000 with only 10,000 soldiers!"

"real?"

The queen came over in surprise and joy, and flipped through the memorial handed to her by the emperor.

Generally, the inner palace does not participate in politics, but now Zhou Yu is sharing the joy of victory with her, so she doesn't care so much.

"Bai Li is truly amazing! Our Great Zhou is saved!"

"Reward! It must be a big reward!"

Zhou Yu was as happy as a child. After all, he didn't need to pretend in front of his wife. As for Eunuch Li, he was invisible to him.

The invisible eunuch Li lowered his head and wiped the corners of his eyes, then the corners of his mouth twitched and he couldn't suppress it no matter how hard he tried.

He couldn't help but secretly feel fortunate that Bai Li was truly capable and that it was worth his previous mercy on the Bai family...

Bai Li had been waiting for news from Qianxi these past two days, but instead of getting any news from there, he received the news that King Jin of Simon had returned to Simon in disgrace with a hundred thousand defeated soldiers.

She breathed a sigh of relief. Now that Simon was gone, she could just focus on dealing with Laos.

As for Zhao Yuntian, Nangong Min didn't mention the number of ape soldiers in his letter two days ago, but I think it's not many, only a few thousand at most.

If Namgoong Min can defeat him once, he can defeat him a second time. What we should worry about now is whether Namgoong Min can defeat the Laotian army.

The Qianxi military camp originally had 5,000 defenders, plus the 10,000 new recruits brought back by Nangong Min, as well as the Bai family army, plus the eight-ox crossbow and repeating crossbow, it should not be too difficult to fight against the Laotian army.

Although Simon has retreated now, Bai Li is still worried about him. She feels that King Jin will not be willing to go back in such a humiliating way.

Even though Simon's treasury was empty and there was no extra money and food to supply the army, King Jin had been planning for so long that he would definitely not miss this opportunity to lead the troops alone.

Since he has reached an agreement with Laos, he must have a backup plan.

Bai Li, who originally wanted to return to support Qianxi, hesitated and finally decided to wait for two days.

Two days later, there was no news from Qianxi, so she immediately left the city and returned to provide support.

"Lanzhi, tell Luo Yang to come see me!"

"Marshal, he's leading his troops out of the city for inspection!"
