Nan Wuyou arrived and brought a group of elite cavalry with him. Zhao Xin and others instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
It was already the third day since they arrived in Dahuang City.
Although it didn't last long, first the news that Cao Xiong was in Dahuang City leaked out, and then Li Cunxiao and others fought with the factory guards of Dahuang City. Except for Ma Jianming, Tang Siru and about twenty others, they almost slaughtered all the hundred households in Dahuang City.
Although they moved quickly and handled the situation promptly, they were not bumped into by the Prince of Qi's men.
But it is obvious that since then, the Prince of Qi and people from other parties including Zhao Wan have become alert.
This can be seen from the obviously more frequent movement of people and horses in the city, especially after Zhao Xin and Yun Panpan met yesterday, Yun Panpan left quietly without anyone noticing.
When they discovered that their scouts had not sent back feedback on time, they realized that Yun Panpan had already left the house and the scouts they sent had been completely eliminated by someone unknown.
Naturally, everyone on all sides was shocked by this.
Especially the Prince of Qi was extremely angry.
Since yesterday evening, a large number of Qi Wang's imperial guards have been conducting large-scale inspections in the city. The county magistrate's soldiers and the yamen runners of the county magistrate's office have also been searching for suspicious persons.
The commotion did not stop for a single night, and even today, soldiers can still be seen patrolling the streets.
As one of the places with the most frequent flow of people, the post station was naturally not immune.
Fortunately, the postmaster helped to cover it up, so we were able to escape danger.
But even so, everyone felt a lot of pressure.
Zhao Xin was only able to remain fearless because he had two great masters, Li Cunxiao and Jiang Gonglan, to keep him in check.
Now it’s finally okay. Even if they are really exposed, they are not without the ability to fight back. They can only escape in embarrassment.
At least when I escape, I have someone to pick me up and I can be more relaxed.
But they breathed a sigh of relief, but Nan Wuyou didn't dare to relax at all.
After performing the rituals of monarch and subject, he immediately said, "Your Majesty, I came here in a hurry and did not dare to make a big fuss, so I led no more than 500 people.
Although they are all elite troops, their number is too small after all, and without auxiliary troops to help, their combat effectiveness may be compromised.
Besides, everyone only has enough food for three days, so Your Majesty, please make plans early."
The reason why he said this right away was naturally because he was worried that Zhao Xin would think that he could be fearless just because he had an elite army and would do something extraordinary. In that case, their arrival would turn a good thing into a bad thing for the emperor.
He dared not take this responsibility.
And what he said was true.
If he hadn't said it, Zhao Xin wouldn't have thought that he could act recklessly with these hundreds of people.
It is true that the three-day rations are a bit small... but it should be enough. If he delays any longer, he won't be able to catch up.
Yun Panpan said that there would be a reply in one or two days, so it would be today or tomorrow.
But we really can't just sit and wait.
He had already thought of another breakthrough, but he didn't have the capital before. Now with these 500 people, it was almost there.
He smiled and said, "Don't worry, Wuyou, I have already made plans, but before Wuyou came, I was not well prepared.
Now that I have the help of my two beloved ministers, it is time for me to go and meet the governor of Dahuang City."
Zhao Xin looked at Nan Wuyou and Cao Zishuo and smiled slightly, and the expressions of the two changed when they heard his words.
Nan Wuyou was stunned... He said this to persuade Zhao Xin not to act rashly. The so-called early planning meant that he should leave this dangerous place immediately and return to the capital, even to the Chenzhou camp.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Xin's understanding of the early plan was completely opposite to what he thought. He actually had to go and meet the governor of Dahuang County.
"His Majesty……"
Nan Wuyou opened his mouth to dissuade him.
When Cao Zishuo saw that the emperor mentioned the two beloved ministers, he was obviously included in the list. He was delighted. Before Nan Wuyou could say anything, he bowed and clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to die for you!"
Nan Wuyou was so angry that he almost rolled his eyes, and couldn't help but turn his head to look at him.
Zhao Xin also glanced at Cao Zishuo, his face full of admiration, "Well, Cao Qing is indeed a capable minister, not bad."
But there was a slight glimmer in his eyes.
Cao Zishuo, if this person hadn't stood in front of him, he would almost have forgotten about both him and his brother Cao Ziyu.
These two people are also characters related to the future plot.
In the original plot, the original protagonist wanted to marry Nan Luoying, but was not allowed by Nan Cang, but he ended up hooking up with these two people.
Nan Cang passed away afterwards.
The original protagonist also relied on these two people to gain Nan Luoying's favor and further win over and control the Nan family. These two people can be said to have made a lot of efforts.
However, the two of them did not have a good ending in the original plot. The reason was very simple. Although they made friends with the protagonist, they did not get along with the Nan brothers.
And he covets the power in the hands of the Nan family.
The purpose of making friends with the protagonist is precisely this.
It’s a pity that they actually made Nan Luoying one of the heroines. As a protagonist, there is no reason for her to help others deal with the heroine’s family.
The result is predictable.
Not only did the original protagonist destroy the two men, he even took the opportunity to clear himself and completely won the favor of Nan Luoying and the Nan brothers.
If this kind of thing happened to a villain, it would naturally be despicable and shameless.
But it’s different for the protagonist. The author has already prepared a bunch of plausible reasons for him.
Things like, "You made friends with me just to use me." "I've already given you a chance, but you're too greedy." And so on.
The villain cooperated with the protagonist but did not trust him, and ended up being killed... The treacherous villain died a deserved death.
The villain trusted the protagonist completely, but still got killed. The stupid person died a worthy death.
In short, the villain deserves to be exploited and deserves to die.
As for who the villain is, of course the one who is killed by the protagonist is the villain.
These two are tragic characters.
It’s similar to the “tyrant” Zhao Xin.
But Zhao Xin did not feel any sympathy for them.
Because they are indeed not good people. More importantly, these two people also contributed to the downfall of Zhao Xin in the original plot.
That's the enemy, what else is there to say.
But what makes Zhao Xin hesitant now is that the misdeeds of these two people have not been exposed yet, and they are still Nan Cang's sons-in-law.
It would be difficult to explain to Nan Cang if he was killed for no reason.
And now Nan Luoying has become his, and it is impossible for the Nan family to be won over by the original protagonist in the future.
These two people are not that important anymore.
There is no rush to kill or not.
Even killing this person now is not certain whether it can be considered a reversal of the plot.
Just as he was thinking about it, Nan Wuyou beside him hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, you can't.
Dahuang County and Nanzhou are separated by only a mountain, and the two are intertwined. The governor of this county must have been entangled with the false King of Qi for a long time. If Your Majesty goes to see the governor now, I am afraid..."
