Chapter 677 Sang Zhixia said: I will
Xu Yu was startled and said subconsciously: "Then over in Lingnan..."
"I don't know either."
Jiang Yubai spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "Brother, I am in a difficult situation too."
"As soon as Lingchu arrived, Liang Ren and Rongchang's gang of bastards messed things up. They held the token given by my sister-in-law and said they would not leave until they saw you. What can I do?"
Moreover, Ling Chu is not Jiang Yubai's subordinate, nor does he serve in the military.
Jiang Yubai himself lacked confidence and didn't even know what to say.
Lingchu has been the one taking care of Xu Yu these days, but Jiang Yubai himself couldn't tell whether Lingchu had already passed the news back to Lingnan.
If everyone in Lingnan knew about it...
Jiang Yubai shuddered and whispered, "If my sister-in-law wants to find someone to settle accounts with, can she only find you?"
"It's not that I don't want to share your hardships, but I'm worried that my sister-in-law wouldn't be able to say anything harsh to me, nor would she be able to take action. So, it's better for you to bear the burden yourself, right?"
Jiang Yubai had the words "I'm dead, my friend is immortal" written on his face.
Xu Yu burst out laughing on the spot: "Young Prince, you've really worked hard."
"I only hope that when I am liquidated, the young prince will not stand by and watch the fire and applaud. That would be worthy of the half life I have lost."
Jiang Yubai laughed: "How can that be possible?"
"Am I that kind of person?"
"Rest well. If you have anything to say, just tell Lingchu. The military doctor is always here. If you feel unwell, call someone immediately. I'll go get you some medicine."
Jiang Yubai disappeared in a flash.
Xu Yu looked at Ling Chu who came in with the medicine bowl. After a while, he said with a headache, "Have you sent a message home?"
Ling Chu lowered his head and said, "To reply to the young master, I have not yet done so."
Before Xu Yu could even exhale, he heard Ling Chu add, "But there's someone else from the host infiltrating the convoy, and I have no way of knowing who it is."
In other words, Ling Chu really had not had time to tip off Sang Zhixia, but it was hard to say whether Sang Zhixia had already known about it.
Xu Yu was stunned for a moment, then said with a mixture of laughter and tears, "Is there someone you don't know?"
"have."
Ling Chu whispered, "The boss once said that it's better to be prepared than to make mistakes. So, the boss actually has several channels to learn about matters related to the young master."
And there is nowhere to catch them.
Because these people didn't know who each other was, it was difficult for Ling Chu to help Xu Yu hide the truth.
Ling Chu hesitated for a moment and said softly, "The young master hasn't woken up in the past few days, so he probably doesn't know what's going on outside."
"Even if no one specifically reported it, it can't be concealed."
That night, Xu Yu and his men came like divine soldiers from heaven and killed Fu Kun in the midst of the chaos. The heroic feat had been spread spontaneously by word of mouth among the people.
So many days have passed...
It's no longer just the people in Chuzhou City who know about it.
Nowadays, news related to the war spreads the fastest and is completely out of control.
Lingnan will know sooner or later.
Xu Yu secretly took a deep breath and thought that it might be bad.
Xu Yu took the medicine bowl from Ling Chu and drank it all in one gulp. He frowned and said, "Get some pen and ink. I'll write a letter and send it to Lingnan immediately. I want..."
"General of the Cavalry?"
Mr. Xue knocked on the door and whispered, "Can I come in?"
Xu Yu handed the empty medicine bowl to Ling Chu: "Sir, please."
Mr. Xue came to tell Xu Yu the second important thing that he didn't have time to say.
The army will set out in five days and continue to head north towards Kyoto. Xu Yu, who is seriously injured and cannot move, will stay in Chuzhou for the time being.
Mr. Xue said, "The decision to temporarily keep the General of the Cavalry in Chuzhou was made by the young prince after he had gathered all the generals for many days of discussion. Firstly, it was to allow the general to recover better, and secondly..."
"Can the General guess the reason?"
Xu Yu lightly brushed the quilt with his fingertips and said playfully, "South?"
"Young Prince, do you want to eat both the north and the south?"
Mr. Xue showed undisguised admiration on his face, nodded and smiled: "That's the case."
"Chuzhou is so important because it's the middle boundary between the north and the south. Just six hundred miles past Chuzhou, you'll be right in the south of the Yangtze River."
"The Lingnan army marched from the royal city and attacked all the way here. If we want to completely eliminate future troubles, we must capture Jiangnan and other places at once."
It is most appropriate for Xu Yu to stay here.
Jiangnan and other places have been a land of fish and rice since ancient times, with many wealthy people and nobles, and the people's lives can be considered rich.
Jiang Yubai wanted to avoid greater losses from the war in such a good place, so he needed a general who could be both tough and flexible.
Moreover, Xu Yu himself came from a noble family and was very familiar with the ins and outs of wealthy families. He was much better than those unruly and unruly men in the army.
With him around, we can get twice the result with half the effort.
Xu Yu wasn't surprised by this. He paused and nodded, saying, "I'm fine with either."
Mr. Xue's tone became gentler: "But there's no need to rush this matter."
"The young prince said that we should wait until the army advances at least three more cities. The general's injuries will probably be almost healed. We can then proceed slowly."
Xu Yu nodded to show that he understood.
Mr. Xue smiled and said, "Also, I heard from the military doctor that the general's injury will take at least three months to heal."
"During our time in Chuzhou, apart from the reconstruction work after the battle, there was no other urgent military information. How about sending a message home and having someone bring Sang Dongjia over to look after the general for a while?"
This is actually Mr. Xue’s unique selfish desire for his younger generations.
When the battle was serious and urgent, Xu Yu abided by the rules and Sang Zhixia did not overstep the line. This was a very pleasant thing.
But for the next period of time, Xu Yu didn't have much to do except recuperating from his injuries.
The young couple had a good relationship. Sang Zhixia suddenly learned that Xu Yu was seriously injured and was extremely anxious.
Instead of keeping him at home worried by sending him so far away, it would be better to bring him here so that Xu Yu can rest and recuperate.
Xu Yu laughed in silence: "Thank you for your kindness, sir."
"But if my wife saw me in this state, it would only cause her more worry. There's no need to worry."
Mr. Xue sighed helplessly, "Mr. Sang will find out sooner or later. It's not a long-term solution for the general to keep it a secret."
“Instead of…”
"No need."
Xu Yu said calmly, "I'll just send a letter home later."
Seeing his handwriting, Sang Zhixia would probably feel a little more at ease...
Mr. Xue was unable to persuade Xu Yu, so he turned around and muttered to Jiang Yubai, "Young Prince, Chuzhou is very safe now. Everything is under our control."
"There's nothing serious happening in the city right now, so bringing Mr. Sang here would be a good idea, wouldn't it? Why wouldn't General Huoqi be willing to do it?"
Jiang Yubai thought to himself, I don’t even have a wife that I cherish in the palace. You ask me, but who should I ask?
but……
Jiang Yubai pondered for a moment and murmured, "Even if Xu Yu doesn't agree, there's still a way."
He had just been ridiculed by Xu Yu for his poor performance not long ago, so he couldn't afford to offend Sang Zhixia, who was like his breadwinner.
Jiang Yubai made the decision without hesitation: "Send another letter to the Sang family, telling them that if they are worried about the General of the Cavalry's injury, they can go to Chuzhou. I will also immediately send a team of 100 Golden Feather Guards to the Lingnan Royal City."
"If the Sang family is willing to come, I will personally bring them here and escort them all the way. There must not be any mistakes."
A letter could be delivered by an eagle over a thousand miles a day. Two days later in the evening, Jiang Yubai received a reply from Sang Zhixia.
Sang Zhixia said: I'll do it.
