Chapter 636: Against Zhou Ruyuan!
Yuan Lang learned since childhood that a woman's virtue lies in her lack of talent. In the past, the people he studied with were all men, and the people who sat and chatted at the table were all men. It was deeply rooted in his heart that men were superior.
Women can be treated kindly, but they are not qualified to sit at the same table.
Jiang Wuya's words now overturned his past understanding.
Naturally, he was unwilling to admit it in his heart, but he had to admit that Jiang Wuya was right about one thing.
If the people can live and work in peace and contentment, they will never care whether the person sitting on the dragon throne is a man or a woman.
"Doesn't Guigu care about Shen Lanxi's body as a woman?" Yuan Lang asked.
Jiang Wuya raised the corner of his mouth: "No one else needs to answer this question, I can answer you."
"Gui Gu doesn't care about Shen Lanxi's body as a woman. Gui Gu only cares about her ability."
Yuan Lang was lost in thought for a moment, then suddenly raised his head.
"Are you from Guigu?"
Jiang Wuya just smiled and didn't answer. His expression was better than thousands of answers.
After a moment of silence, Yuan Lang asked, "If I pledge my loyalty, what do you want me to do?"
Jiang Wuya smiled: "As expected of you, the successor of Caolu, you hit the point in one sentence."
Yuan Lang smiled bitterly: "You can bring me here silently, which means you can also kill Zhou Ruyuan silently. But you didn't do that, which means taking back Dongchuan and killing Zhou Ruyuan is not your ultimate goal."
After realizing this, Yuan Lang suddenly became enlightened.
"Before, I was really sitting in a well and looking at the world."
Jiang Wuya smiled and said, "It's not too late for you to understand now."
Your Majesty holds most of the land of the Great Zhou, would he care about Tianjin?
Just a flick of the finger can destroy Tianjin. But some people are obsessed with it, thinking that Your Majesty is afraid of Zhou Ruyuan.
That's ridiculous.
"I have a request. No matter what you ask me to do, just meet this request." After saying this, Yuan Lang suddenly felt relieved.
"Tell me what you want." As long as it's within a reasonable range, it can be discussed.
Yuan Lang said seriously: "I want to meet the descendant of Guigu."
Jiang Wuya smiled and said, "Okay."
…
Early the next morning, Yuan Lang returned to Tianjin quietly with his personal guards without disturbing anyone.
At noon, Zhou Yanxing and Zhou Ruyuan arrived at the front one after another.
"Uncle, you came in such a hurry that I had to give you a long chase."
Zhou Yanxing was not annoyed, and responded with a smile: "As a minister, the most important thing I should do is to relieve your majesty's worries."
Zhou Ruyuan sneered and shouted, "I am the Son of Heaven, the true master of the Great Zhou."
"If you can lay down your weapons and surrender, I will forgive the past!"
"Whatever position you held before, you will remain in the same position afterwards. I promise that if you pursue me later, I will be damned and have no place to rest!"
The Eastern Expedition Army led by Zhao Zheng stood firm like a solid wall of steel.
"Zhou Ruyuan, do you recognize who we are?" A man rode out on a horse on Zhao Zheng's right.
Qian Feng, dressed in silver armor and riding a horse, appeared in Zhou Ruyuan's sight.
Zhou Ruyuan just felt that he looked familiar, but he couldn't remember who he was.
"Who are you?"
Qian Feng took out the Black Tiger Army token, and with a flick of Changmukang's finger, the token jumped into everyone's sight.
At the same time, Che Mingyuan, Zhao Zheng and the six people behind them all took out the same token and hung it on their weapons.
A familiar scene suddenly struck Zhou Ruyuan's mind.
He fixed his eyes on Zhao Zheng and said with certainty, "They are from the Black Tiger Army. They are all former members of the Southwest Army."
After confirming it, Zhou Ruyuan suddenly laughed.
“I didn’t expect it to be you.”
He should have thought of this long ago. He didn't expect that Zhao Zheng, a cripple who had accomplished nothing, could actually get people from the former Southwest Army to join him.
"I underestimated you in the past!" Zhou Ruyuan regretted that when he took over the Southwest Army, he was soft-hearted and did not kill all the former soldiers of the Southwest Army.
Zhao Zheng immediately retorted: "I overestimated you before." Without the great reputation of their Southwestern Army, where would the title of God of War come from?
Can he afford it?
Zhou Ruyuan thought about the current situation and said, "If you bring your troops to serve me, when I reach the capital, you will still be in charge of the Southwest Army."
Zhao Zheng was amused by Zhou Ruyuan's nonsense.
"Zhou Ruyuan, can't you see the current situation clearly?"
"If you surrender and commit suicide on the battlefield, I can ask His Majesty to bury you with your family!"
Zhou Ruyuan was in high spirits when he heard Zhao Zheng was so stubborn and refused to change his mind. He immediately ordered: "I will sacrifice you today and let those who will be stationed there after you see that this is the fate of those who try to stop me."
Zhao Zheng just smiled and said nothing. Seeing that the battle was about to break out, suddenly the sound of horse hooves rumbled.
I don't know who shouted
"Your Majesty is here!"
"Yes, Your Majesty..."
"Your Majesty is fine!"
The rumbling of the cavalry looked like divine soldiers descending from heaven to the disbelieving eyes of Zhou Ruyuan and others.
Isn't Shen Lanxi dead?
Wasn't she seriously injured and died?
How could he reach the battlefield safely?
Oh no, I’ve fallen into a trap!
By the time Zhou Ruyuan reacted, it was too late.
Shen Lanxi arrived in the blink of an eye. Zhao Zheng gave up his position as commander-in-chief, and all the generals of the Eastern Expedition Army dismounted and paid homage.
"Your Majesty, long live your Majesty..."
Shen Lanxi was dressed in black armor and a red cloak, with flags flying behind him and countless cavalrymen.
She had a strong figure, a rosy complexion, and did not look injured at all.
"Listen, all the soldiers in Tianjin. If you surrender now, I will forgive you for your past mistakes!" She repeated Zhou Ruyuan's words to him.
"Whatever official positions you held in the past, and whatever official positions you will hold in the future, I will never hold you accountable."
"Although I cannot swear a poisonous oath like Zhou Ruyuan, my words are as good as gold!"
"I am the emperor of the Great Zhou, the ruler of a country. You are the soldiers, ministers, and common people of the Great Zhou. I remember that you obeyed military orders before, and everything you did was not your own will. I am also a soldier, and I know that military orders are as heavy as mountains."
"If you put down your weapons now, I will disperse you and assign you to different armies. You will be treated the same way as my soldiers, and I will never treat you differently!"
Seeing that some soldiers were really moved, Zhou Ruyuan immediately shouted loudly: "Don't listen to her nonsense!"
"Chen Lanxi committed treason and is a traitor. She used her body as a woman to corrupt the Great Zhou Dynasty and do evil things. Sooner or later, our Great Zhou Dynasty will be destroyed in her hands."
"I will kill this person today, restore order, and use her head to clean up the chaos of our Zhou Dynasty!"
Shen Lanxi snorted and laughed, saying disdainfully: "Zhou Ruyuan, since the wedding night, you have made mistakes step by step, and you have fallen into the hands of women time and time again. Now that your military strength is not good, you start to attack my identity as a woman."
"Besides relying on your status as a man, have you ever made any contribution to the people of the Great Zhou?"
