Chapter 863: The Emperor’s Personal Expedition



Zhao Hao took a deep breath and calmed himself down immediately. Then he rolled over to the inside of the bed, quickly took off his clothes, and got into the quilt.

With his arms open, Jiang Yiren rested her head obediently in his strong and sturdy arms, with her whole face pressed against his chest.

The other arm was placed on Zhao Hao's belly.

Zhao Hao gently stroked her fair and smooth back and exhaled several breaths in succession.

He lay flat on his back, and the pepperwood quilt immediately propped him up.

Jiang Yiren's pretty face suddenly turned red, and she buried herself in his arms.

Zhao Hao smacked his lips and said, "It's okay, it will be fine in a while."

However, under the influence of alcohol, it is not so easy to stay calm.

Jiang Yiren blinked her beautiful eyes and said softly, "Hao'er, it must be very hard..."

Zhao Hao shook his head and pretended to be relaxed: "It's okay, is Auntie hungry?"

"Would you like to eat something?"

He needs to find something to talk about to divert attention!

Jiang Yiren shook her head silently, and then moved the arm that was resting on his stomach...

Then, the whole person slid down.

"this……"

"aunt……"

“Hmm…”

To be honest, he particularly likes this kind of thing.

However, except for Li Yu and Zhuo Ya, he had rarely enjoyed such treatment.

Even Shang Yuchan only did it a few times.

As for Yongning and his aunt Jiang Yiren, even though he had actively asked for them many times, he never got what they wanted.

Um?

Yongning seemed to have one time?

But only once.

After that attempt, I never said I would come again.

As for his aunt Jiang Yiren, he had only slightly expressed this intention and had never even said it explicitly.

Today...

After some time, he no longer insisted on anything, seeing that his aunt was working too hard...

After feeling refreshed, he fell into a deep sleep under the influence of alcohol.

Jiang Yiren couldn't sleep, so she just looked at him from such a close distance as he slept soundly.

It seems like I can never get enough of it.

His face, his eyebrows, his nose, his lips, no matter which one, she loved it to the core.

The next morning, just after breakfast, Wusong walked over quickly.

"Sir, the reinforcements from Shu have arrived, and this time is different!"

"Oh?" Zhao Hao looked towards Wu Song: "What's the difference?"

Wu Song said, "The Queen of Shu has led the army in person and has gathered the defeated soldiers. She must have learned that King Xiaoyao was captured alive by us!"

"The Queen of Shu Kingdom led the army in person?" Zhao Hao was stunned. This was indeed something he did not expect.

"It's good that the emperor leads the army in person. Now we can know how much weight King Xiaoyao holds in the heart of the Empress."

Near noon, the Shu Kingdom's 100,000-strong army, together with 30,000 to 40,000 defeated soldiers, a total of less than 150,000, set up camp 15 miles away from Luoye City.

Then, he immediately sent a messenger to Luoye City.

Zhao Hao met with the other party in person.

The messenger came up and said, "General, my country's emperor ordered me to come and negotiate the release of my Shu Kingdom's Xiaoyao King."

"The general can make any request he wants."

Zhao Hao smiled slightly and said, "Emissary, my request is actually very simple. Shu Kingdom withdraws its troops and does not invade Dagan anymore!"

"Not only can I release King Xiaoyao, I can also make the decision and not hold the Kingdom of Shu responsible for its repeated invasions."

"We are willing to renew our alliance with Shu."

"Please ask the envoy to report this general's intention to Her Majesty the Empress!"

The envoy nodded and said, "General, may I see King Xiaoyao?"

Hearing this, Zhao Hao pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly.

"Of course there is no problem. Let the envoy take a look at King Xiaoyao's situation, so that everyone in Shu will know how sincere our Da Gan's desire to ally with Shu is."

"Come here, bring the messenger to see King Xiaoyao."

The messenger immediately bowed and thanked him: "Thank you, General!"

After saying that, he turned and walked out.

All the officials present looked at Zhao Hao and asked, "Why did the general agree to let him see King Xiaoyao?"

"King Xiaoyao is well aware of the general situation and will definitely not let their empress save him by withdrawing the troops!"

Zhao Hao smiled slightly and said, "It doesn't matter. Even if King Xiaoyao doesn't say it, do you think the Queen of Shu doesn't know?"

"Let him speak!"

The envoy from Shu met King Xiaoyao, and the two talked for about a quarter of an hour, then left Luoye City and returned to the Shu army camp.

In the Shu army camp, in the central military tent, the Shu empress was looking at the map hanging in the middle.

Next to her were a group of generals, about a dozen of them.

Of these, two-thirds were brought by her this time.

Another third are the defeated generals she had gathered since her arrival from yesterday to today.

At this moment, the expressions of these defeated generals were completely different from those of the others.

However, the Empress of Shu did not seem to punish them.

Still let them stand among the generals.

After looking at the map for a while, the Shu Queen sat down behind the desk and said faintly, "In other words, you were defeated miserably after being attacked from both sides."

"Gan Jun, before you arrived at Luoye City, we divided our forces and entered the grassland."

One of the defeated generals said quickly: "Yes, Your Majesty, in fact, this time, King Xiaoyao has been very cautious."

"I'm just worried about repeating the mistakes we made last time when the four countries attacked Gan."

"We sent out a thousand scouts, who penetrated more than 200 miles into the grassland, but did not find any ambushes."

"This ambush of the Gan army has penetrated at least four or five hundred miles into the grassland..."

"We don't even know what communication methods they used to synchronize messages and launch attacks at the same time without any deviation."

This is something they haven't figured out until now.

The Empress of Shu nodded slightly and sighed softly: "Such a young army, with such a small number of troops to defend the city, dared to divide the troops to ambush in advance..."

“You’re really courageous!”

You know, at most, the defenders in Luoye City are less than 30,000 people.

Moreover, they were facing an army of 100,000 troops head-on.

Even so, Zhao Hao still dared to divide his troops and ambush in advance. It was hard to say whether he was courageous or ignorant of his own limitations.

But, even so, he really succeeded.

In this world, heroes are judged by their results. If this plan succeeds, then there is nothing more to say.

One of the generals asked, "Your Majesty, will Zhao Hao release King Xiaoyao?"

The Queen of Shu said, "Of course he will. He is a businessman and he will definitely not do business that will lose money."

"Believe it or not, although King Xiaoyao is a captive, Zhao Hao will definitely treat him as a guest of honor."

"And his condition must be that we withdraw our troops!"
