"Sir!" The master was delighted, but looked at Magistrate Luo with a worried look on his face.
"I am here with you, my Lord."
Since the adults have decided to surrender, their danger is over.
Magistrate Luo looked at the master deeply and said, "Okay!"
The master has followed him for many years, and he is grateful for the favor of being able to accompany him at this time.
The master nodded and turned to look at the defenders, "All of you, hurry down and put away all your weapons."
Such a broken weapon would be useless.
After watching the soldiers supporting each other as they walked down the city gate tower, the legal advisor turned his head to look at the official road.
King Qianhuang's army was getting closer and closer to Fanjing City. The sight of the endless army made his scalp tingle.
The lawyer took a deep breath and glanced at Magistrate Luo.
Magistrate Luo put his hands behind his back, staring intently at the oppressive army that was approaching.
It's impossible to say I'm not nervous.
But what's the use of being nervous? What is meant to come will come, and things will work out when the time comes.
......
"Your Majesty!"
Guard Ji Guangda returned from the front, pulled the reins of his horse and stopped in front of Shen Yong.
"On the gate tower of Fanjing City ahead, there is only one person wearing the official uniform of a prefect and one attendant. I think it must be Prefect Luo."
"There are no soldiers ambushing around the city gate tower. The situation on the city gate tower is unknown."
The scouts could only find out the situation outside the city, and only two people on the city gate tower could see it.
But no one knows how many are hiding in the dark.
The gates of Fanjing City were still closed. Magistrate Luo had not agreed to surrender before, but the current situation did not look like a war.
Prefect Liu was quite familiar with the situation in Fanjing City. He said that there were only a few soldiers in Fanjing City who could fight.
But even if there are fewer soldiers fighting, there shouldn't be no one on the city gate tower.
Chen Yong looked up at the city gate tower, his brows twitched slightly, and he raised his hand to stop the large army.
"I will go and meet Magistrate Luo."
"Your Highness!" Jian Guangqi shouted hurriedly, "How can Your Highness risk his life? I'd better go and talk to Prefect Luo."
With so many soldiers, how can we let the prince charge into battle alone? That would make them seem incompetent.
Chen Yong was slightly stunned, and turned his head to look at Jian Guangqi. Seeing Jian Guangqi's determined eyes, he hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Okay!"
"Ji Guangda escorted the military advisor to the negotiations!"
He does not have as much combat experience as the military advisor, so he should listen more to the military advisor in this regard.
He just thought that his martial arts skills were invincible and even if there was an ambush on the city gate tower, he could not be hurt.
He forgot that he is now the commander of an army and needs to learn how to use his subordinates and give them some opportunities to show their abilities.
"Yes!" Ji Guangda replied with a bow.
Jian Guangqi also responded and raised his chin towards Ji Guangda.
Ji Guangda immediately selected more than 20 personal soldiers, followed by Jian Guangqi, and marched towards the city gate tower in a mighty manner.
The advisor on the city gate tower heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the main force stopped in the distance and only a small group of people came over.
"Sir, it seems that King Qianhuang has no intention of attacking by force. He has sent someone to negotiate."
Some are fine with just talking, but they are afraid that the other party will come over without saying a word and start fighting directly, and they won’t even have time to surrender.
Magistrate Luo pursed his dry lips, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice.
"Negotiation!!? Haha!"
Looking at the huge army not far away, they had no right to negotiate.
The arrival of this small group of people should give them some perspective and encourage them to open the city gates tactfully.
However, looking at King Qianhuang's style of doing things, he doesn't seem like that reckless man Zhong Erfei.
Could it be that Deng Yushan became the King of Qianhuang?
Will Zhong Erfei agree?
I can’t figure it out, I really can’t figure it out.
While Magistrate Luo was lost in thought, Jian Guangqi had already reached the city gate tower.
"Prefect Luo, long time no see, I hope you are well!"
Jian Guangqi looked up at the city gate tower and bowed to Magistrate Luo.
Although Ji Guangda's people did not know Magistrate Luo, he did know him because he had borrowed military rations from him before.
Magistrate Luo lowered his eyes to look at Jian Guangqi, frowning slightly.
"Military Advisor Jian!?"
Jian Guangqi from Zhong Erfei's military camp appeared here, so the Qianhuang King is Zhong Erfei! !?
Jian Guangqi raised his lips and smiled, "Exactly. If it weren't for Prefect Luo supporting me with a batch of military rations, the soldiers might not have been able to hold that last line of defense."
That winter, the Fire Phoenix Nation harassed Qianhuang City several times. The military rations from the capital were delayed in being delivered, and the soldiers could not fight on an empty stomach.
At that time, he and his soldiers borrowed military rations from both Magistrates Deng and Luo.
He still remembers this friendship in his heart.
Magistrate Luo curled the corners of his lips.
"Military Advisor Jian still remembers something that happened so long ago."
Magistrate Luo took a deep breath and asked tentatively,
"Could Military Advisor Jian tell me, who King Qianhuang is...?!"
In fact, when he saw Jian Guangqi, he was already 80% to 90% sure that King Qianhuang might be Zhong Erfei.
But he still held on to that 10% or 20% hope, hoping to hear different news from Jian Guangqi.
Jian Guangqi smiled lightly, "I dare not address the prince by his name."
"Does Magistrate Luo know about General Shen's seventh son?"
After all this time, Magistrate Luo still didn't know who King Qianhuang was.
But that's normal. They don't need to be ordered not to tell anyone about the affairs of Qianhuang City. The people of the city can keep the secrets well by themselves.
The people who fled to Qianhuang City from other cities kept their mouths shut, for fear that the news would get out and their good days would be over.
This resulted in only a few people around Governor Liu of Bailong City knowing who King Qianhuang was, while the civilians and soldiers who went to transport water had no idea at all.
When Prefect Liu was trying to persuade Prefect Luo to surrender, he was still very cautious and did not tell Prefect Luo the news.
In fact, King Qianhuang didn't care at all about this news getting out.
As far as he knew, after King Qianhuang sent out his troops, he hoped that the news of his being King Qianhuang would spread to all cities to spread the prestige of his Shen family.
Magistrate Luo frowned, thought carefully, and turned his head to look at the master.
"The seventh son of the Shen family, do you have any impression of him?!"
When Jian Guangqi said this, he began to doubt whether he had heard it wrong.
If he remembered correctly, the seventh son of the Shen family seemed to have been raised to be a waste?
But Jian Guangqi's words implied that the seventh son of the Shen family was King Qianhuang. How could that be possible?!
The confused master looked at Magistrate Luo in astonishment.
"It is said that he is a useless... playboy!"
General Shen had seven sons. The first six were all very brave and good at fighting. They were all given the title of young generals at a young age.
The Shen family, including General Shen, has seven generals. In any dynasty, this would definitely arouse the royal family's fear.
This is also the reason why the Shen family suddenly...disappeared.
