Everyone looked at the young man in shock. He, he, he could actually be the princess?
In the entire Tianjiang City, there is only one princess, and that is King Wucheng’s princess!
Those who were close to her took several steps back and knelt on the ground.
"Greetings to the princess!"
The highest official in Tianjiang City is the city guard, who is only a fourth-rank official, while the princess is a first-rank official! It can be said that this is the highest rank they have ever seen in their lives.
Ye Xinran was helpless. Couldn't this scarred general see through it without saying it? Was it necessary to be so direct? Would he be able to come out for tea again in the future?
Even though she was complaining in her heart, she could only raise her hand and say.
"Okay, get up now!"
Everyone hesitated and then slowly stood up.
Wen Qiao's face turned blue and purple, and he looked at Ye Xinran in shock. He turned out to be the Princess Wucheng! He was really dead this time.
Seeing him staring at the princess and not kneeling, the two soldiers who captured him were very upset and kicked him directly in the knee. They used a lot of force, but there was only a cracking sound. The leg was broken.
There were screams.
Everyone shuddered and felt a little sympathy for Wen Qiao. He fell directly into the princess's hands. He would be skinned alive if he didn't die!
Ye Xinran raised her eyebrows and ignored it. It was just a broken leg, but she still felt unsatisfied.
Alas, after being disturbed by this Wen Qiao, I can’t stay here anymore, so I said to General Scar.
"General, go and get busy. I'm coming back too!"
"See the princess off!" Scar General bowed and ordered his men, "Send four people to see the princess off! Don't let those ignorant people disturb her again."
"Yes!" Four soldiers quickly followed.
Ye Xinran heard this and didn't want to refuse the general's kindness, so she could only nod, then get up and leave.
The general watched her leave before continuing their work.
After the princess and the general left, everyone in the teahouse felt that they had survived a disaster. No one dared to say anything more, and they all left the teahouse and went home.
They all secretly remembered the princess's kindness in their hearts. If it weren't for the princess, they would have been harmed by Wen Qiao today! If they were taken away, the lightest punishment would be a beating!
Qian Liu frowned, his back was covered with cold sweat, he was almost there, just a little bit away from causing a disaster.
If he really captured the princess... just think about the consequences! Qian Liu couldn't help but shudder. He quickly took his men away. He also had to send someone to tell his sister to quickly divorce Wen Qiao and leave the Wen Mansion! Wen Qiao was dead! The Wen family was finished!
Ye Xinran was helpless. She was followed by four followers, all of whom looked ferocious. Wherever she went, they were treated with caution and passers-by gave way.
Feeling that it was boring, she simply went back home and chatted with the four people on the way.
Looking at the four soldiers, the oldest was in his twenties, and the youngest was only seventeen or eighteen. Although they were in good spirits, they were very thin and looked a bit malnourished.
Ye Xinran was curious.
"What do you eat every day?" Ye Xinran asked.
Looking at the youngest soldier, he rushed to answer, "Steamed bread, but it's better recently, and I can eat white flour steamed bread occasionally!"
Ye Xinran paused and asked calmly.
"What about your military pay?"
The soldier touched his head and said, "We haven't had any military pay for several months!"
Ye Xinran frowned. These soldiers fought for their country and died for it, but they didn't have enough food to eat and even their salaries were withheld. This was a bit too unreasonable.
When they arrived at the gate of the mansion, Ye Xinran said to the soldier.
"When you have time, ask your general to come and see me. I have something to discuss with him!"
The soldier nodded. Several people left together. After watching them go away, Ye Xinran returned to the mansion with a heavy heart.
It seems that we need to prepare the military pay and food.
After all, food and supplies must be sent before troops move forward!
…
Just as everyone was arguing about King Wucheng's decision.
King Wucheng has already received five thousand golden-armored soldiers in the South China Sea.
But what made him a little speechless was.
On the way to the South China Sea, he gradually received some generals. They all followed him voluntarily. In this way, there were 30,000 to 40,000 people, plus the original gold armored army of the South China Sea, and some scattered soldiers. A total of 50,000 people!
Soon his whereabouts were exposed to the public and he could no longer hide them.
If it were in the past, the emperor would have accused him of being a self-reliant soldier. Unfortunately, the emperor himself could not protect himself now. King Wensheng died again.
The world is basically in chaos.
Wherever Gu Yanming went, local officials gave him the green light and let him go. They didn't dare to make things difficult for him and just wanted to send him away as quickly as possible!
It was also at this time that a group of people appeared openly in the south. They were the royal family of the previous dynasty named Mu, who were waving the banner of restoration.
The current Daliang Dynasty is no longer what it used to be. No one can suppress it. Most of the south is under their control. Only two princes are left to guard their own fiefdoms and struggle to maintain it.
…
Emperor Gu Zhenting was taken by Long Er and his group, hiding from place to place, and finally arrived at a small town in the south, where he lay in wait.
When he heard that King Wensheng had died, he was so happy that he drank a few glasses that night.
But when he heard that Gu Yanming's letter to the world accused him of colluding with the Jin people, framing loyal officials, and no longer accepting his orders, he was furious and cursed Gu Yanming, calling him a villain, a traitor, and a traitor who would not die a good death. Anyway, he cursed him with all kinds of vicious words.
"Long Er, send a few people to kill King Wucheng Gu Yanming!" Gu Zhenting said gritting his teeth.
"Yes, master!" Long Er took the order.
Only then did Gu Zhenting feel better.
At least, he still has these secret guards at his disposal, so he is not at the end of his rope.
When the time is right, I will surely make a comeback.
He is the legitimate emperor, anyone else is a usurper and will be condemned by the world!
Gu Zhenting also instructed Long Er to help contact a group of ministers loyal to him.
He must make good arrangements and must regain his rights.
…
Gu Yanming was on his way back to the northwest with a large army when he heard that the Jin army had attacked Yanjing City. He asked his subordinates to check and found out that Emperor Gu Zhenting had escaped! King Wensheng was also assassinated by the emperor's men after entering the palace.
Now Yanjing City is leaderless, and the Jin Dynasty may attack the city at any time to burn, kill and loot.
Gu Yanming was extremely angry. Without saying anything, he jumped on his horse, turned his horse around, and rushed to Yanjing City with his generals. No matter what, he would not let foreigners invade their land.
Gu Yanming took the time to send a pigeon message to Ye Xinran, asking her to help transport the gold, silver and food supplies that were previously stored in the cave in Lulicheng as military pay.
Ye Xinran received the letter and raised her eyebrows! This is just right! She was originally planning to prepare food and military pay for Gu Yanming's army. Now she can do it legitimately.
