Chapter 421 Recognizing the New Master
"How could she! Brother Zhan Feng treats her so well!"
Sang Ning and Huo Jingya looked at the excited woman.
She is actually my second brother’s admirer?
"I know who you are." Huo Jingya's eyes lit up.
"Are you Sister Ruoying?"
Who is it?
Sang Ning looked inquiringly.
"Cheng Ruoying, the daughter of the Xichuan County Magistrate, my second brother told me about her before."
Second brother had only mentioned this one woman, so Huo Jingya guessed it immediately.
"Did he mention me to you?" Cheng Ruoying was surprised.
That person is the most heartless. Even if he mentioned it, it should have been a casual remark, right?
After all, he had never really liked interacting with her.
Huo Jingya saw that it was true, so she continued, "I mentioned it before. When my second brother returned to Beijing last time, he scolded me, saying that I couldn't be a lady of a wealthy family, nor could I be a daughter of a general. I was just a little waste.
Then he mentioned you, saying that you were graceful and elegant when you dismounted, and that you were well-mannered and decent.
He mounted his horse with a dashing presence, and slaughtered all around him."
At that time, she was very dissatisfied and unreasonably provocative, asking if he was having an affair with another woman outside, and threatened to tell her second sister-in-law.
As a result, her second sister-in-law's maid was hiding nearby and eavesdropping, so she didn't need to say anything.
That night, my second sister-in-law had a big fight with my second brother, who was sleeping in the study.
Come to think of it, I really deserved to die at that time!
"What the second brother said is really good!" said Sang Ning.
Second brother actually has such a high opinion of this girl!
But it is true.
Cheng Ruoying came back to her senses.
"I'm not like what he said, I was just pretending!"
She said bluntly: "How can a woman who wields swords and guns be dignified? It's just superficial. He has never seen what I am like at home."
It was just that she thought Huo Zhanfeng liked dignified and graceful women, so she...
"Hahaha! So that's how it is, Sister Ruoying, I like your personality. When Second Brother comes back, I will have to talk to him about reason. He can pick up a gun and kill the enemy, but he still requires dignity and moderation. Don't be greedy!"
Cheng Ruoying smiled unnaturally, as if she didn't know what to talk about.
But now that people know her identity, there is no need for her to hide it.
She reached out and tore off the mask on her face, revealing a very beautiful and elegant face.
“Wow!”
Sang Ning and Huo Jingya exclaimed at the same time.
They thought that wielding swords and guns in a barren place like Xichuan should make them look heroic as their second brother said, but they were a little far from being beautiful women.
Unexpectedly, she is a real beauty!
Cheng Ruoying felt very uncomfortable being stared at by Sang Ning and Huo Jingya, and couldn't help touching her face.
"Anything, any problem?"
"Oh, no, no."
"How are you going to deal with him?" Cheng Ruoying felt very hot in the tent.
It's so hot that it's almost smoking.
Three people actually started chatting while guarding a corpse.
If we keep talking, the corpse will stink!
"Oh, Yucui——" Sang Ning shouted.
Let Yucui call two people to carry the body out and burn it directly.
Very straightforward.
Cheng Ruoying has completed her mission and it’s time for her to leave.
“I’ve worked with General Yan before to eliminate many of the people around Yan Mingyu, but there are still two people who are in danger.
One is the witch who confides in the poison, and the other is the poison doctor. These two people were arranged by King Hongkang to be by his side.
I don’t know where he has gone now. In short, he is hostile to you, so you have to be careful.
I'm going back to Xichuan."
Her parents were still worried about her at home, and they hadn't given her any explanation about the arranged marriage.
Now that he knew Huo Zhanfeng was still alive, he did what he wanted to do.
No regrets.
"Goodbye."
Sang Ning and Huo Jingya looked at each other.
"You can't leave!" Huo Jingya stretched out her hand to stop him.
"Well, the barracks is short of men, why don't you stay and become a general?"
"This isn't appropriate. My parents are still in Xichuan."
Well, yes, the world has not yet been unified, so she is a traitor here and is doing a disservice to her parents.
Huo Jingya couldn't find any other reason, so she asked Sang Ning to speak.
"Well, Miss Cheng, come over here and see my second brother before you leave?"
Hit the snake at its most vulnerable part. He came here for my second brother, so isn't this the right question?
Cheng Ruoying saw this with a conflicted look in her eyes.
"Second brother will be back soon, it won't be long."
Who knows when the second brother will come back, let’s keep him here first.
Anyway, this girl is very courageous, loyal and righteous. She even dares to break into such a dangerous palace. This shows how much friendship she has for her second brother!
They all admire and like it.
If my second brother likes it too, then that’s fine!
"Okay, then I'll wait two more days."
…
Capital city, imperial palace.
The eldest princess took the token of the late emperor and quickly cleared out the imperial guards.
At this moment, she was glad that the Huo family was rebelling.
At least the Huo family repelled the Western Liao and Northern Mongolia and did not allow foreign tribes to enter.
Otherwise, the imperial palace would probably have been occupied by the Northern Mongolians.
She imprisoned the Queen Mother and warned her word by word.
"You were originally a criminal of Dongyang. Now I have not killed you, but have made you the Queen Mother and have given you the Eighth Prince to raise. You should know how to speak to your brother."
"I know," the Queen Mother said carefully.
If she could survive, she didn't want to fight anymore.
After a lifetime of fighting with the imperial concubine, in the end, no one won.
"I will say that the emperor was held hostage by the Northern Mongols. Aunt, you came to rescue him, but the Northern Mongols still took the emperor away."
The eldest princess nodded indifferently.
Now the Huo family army is eyeing the power covetously. We must stabilize the power grab by the foreign relatives and avoid internal chaos.
Royal scandals must never be spread.
Otherwise, the royal family's precarious reputation will completely collapse.
After informing the Empress Dowager, the Grand Princess left Changle Palace.
In front of the hall, all the officials knelt on the ground.
She used both kindness and severity, gave them a beating, and then let them leave the palace.
Then he waved Hua Buyan over.
"Yan'er, you did a great job."
Although it was his first time leading troops, he was not at all nervous.
Her grandson is much better than those princes!
Hua Buyan was praised without showing any expression. He lowered his eyes and said softly, "Grandmother, the Black Armor Guard you gave to your grandson didn't show his face."
The eldest princess was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes were filled with relief.
The Black Armored Guards never show their faces, and no one knows what they look like.
Except, their master.
She gave her grandson two thousand men, but these men never showed their faces.
That means it wasn't really given to him.
Yan'er, you even know this.
Good, very good.
"Then you can find an empty lot and let them recognize their new owner."
Hua Buyan's eyes moved slightly and he said respectfully, "Thank you, Grandmother."
He took two thousand black-armored guards and went somewhere else.
"Master, are you really going to give those two thousand men to the prince?" Lu Xun asked.
The Grand Princess didn't care.
"Only two thousand people."
