Chapter 285 Returning Home
Last night, Zhao Xiaofei and Li Sihong were reading a letter from the princess. It was sent by Zhao Xiaokun, saying that Princess Kunxing would send Princess Zhaoren over.
Li Sihong knew that Kunxing not only sent Zhaoren to the Zhao family to leave a way out, but also worried that if he was always around, the love he showed to the two sisters would be reduced. This was to let his younger sister come and compete for his favor!
At this moment, a stone flew in from the window. On it was a piece of paper. Zhao Xiaofei walked over and took it up. It said: At midnight tomorrow, Chengdu City will be presented!
Li Sihong took it, looked at it, and asked, "Husband! What do you think?"
"I'm afraid this is Zeng Ying's plan to feign surrender!" said Zhao Xiaofei.
Li Sihong smiled and said, "I think my husband should just do as he is told!"
"Why? What if this is Zeng's plan?" Zhao Xiaofei said.
"I've seen it, and this notebook was clearly written by Miss Shen! Miss Shen was practicing sword once, and I was watching from the side. She wrote the word 'Ming' with her sword, and I could tell from this word 'Ming' that this was her notebook!" Li Sihong said.
"Madam, why can't I see it?" Zhao Xiaofei asked. He picked up the piece of paper and looked at it again and again, but he couldn't make out what it was.
Li Sihong smiled and said, "Husband! Since you came to Daming, I haven't seen you pick up a pen! The last time you wrote a letter to the princess, I realized that your handwriting was simply terrible! So of course you can't see it!"
Zhao Xiaofei scratched his head awkwardly, then smiled and said, “Since you’ve figured it out, I’m relieved! Let’s get ready now, but I’m afraid what if Miss Shen makes a mistake?”
"Then we must be more prepared! In case of failure, we will stop the troops from rescuing us!" Li Sihong said with a smile.
"What are you laughing at?" Zhao Xiaofei asked.
"My husband always says that he is not attracted to Miss Shen, but he still cares about her safety! This time when we meet Miss Shen, we can't let her go. We have to agree to whatever conditions she puts forward!" Li Sihong said with a smile.
Zhao Cheng felt awkward after hearing this. This woman always found loopholes in his words, using them to point out that he had ulterior motives and was always thinking about other women. Your routines were always so good and so profound. If you weren't careful, you would be fooled into it.
"Madam! That's not what I meant. Miss Shen and I have a pure relationship between a man and a woman!" said Zhao Xiaofei.
"Husband! Don't explain anymore! It's only making things worse!" Li Sihong said. She thought, how could a relationship between a man and a woman be pure? How could I not know this?
Zhao Xiaofei thought: Forget it, let's not talk about it. Let's get ready quickly!
In this way, Zhao Xiaofei brought his men and Ma Wanchun to take over Chengdu City.
As soon as I entered the city gate, I saw several women in black escorting Zeng Ying towards me.
Zhao Xiaofei sat on his horse and looked down. At this moment, Zeng Ying seemed to have been drained of all his energy.
Zhao Xiaofei smiled and said, "Master Zeng, you and I were originally allies. How did it come to this?"
"I am incompetent and unworthy of the title of ally! Your Highness can kill me now if you want to. It's all up to you!" Zeng Ying said with a sigh.
"You can't stay here! Considering that you made some contributions in suppressing Zhang Xianzhong, I won't bring harm to my wife and daughter!" Zhao Xiaofei said with a smile.
At this time, the woman in black who was closest to Zhao Xiaofei took off her mask, revealing her true face. It was Shen Yunying, and Zhao Xiaofei had already recognized her by her silhouette and voice.
Shen Yunying said, “Your Majesty, please go around Master Zeng!”
"Why?" Zhao Xiaofei asked.
"I promised Mr. Zeng that I would keep him safe! People should be trustworthy!" said Shen Yunying.
Zhao Xiaofei was about to refuse when Li Sihong said, "Since Miss Shen has said so, the prince will naturally give this face! Lord Zeng, please thank Miss Shen!"
"Zeng Ying, thank you Miss Shen!" Zeng Ying said weakly. He really didn't expect that a woman's words could decide his life or death.
As the troops entered the city, the sign of the Governor's Office was removed. Zhao Xiaofei, Ma Wanchun, and Qin Yiming entered the palace together. In the Yin'an Hall, Ma Wanchun sat at the head, while Zhao Xiaofei sat at the bottom. Fang Xinyu, Qin Yiming, and other generals only had embroidered cushions to sit on.
"I'm going to Jingzhou soon, and the overall situation here still needs to be presided over by Prince Chuan! The reason for the great defeat in the last battle was that I didn't think it through and the coordination between the various arms was poor. If we didn't have the advantage in firearms, we would probably be defeated even more miserably. So in the future we have to work hard on the coordination between the arms. What do you think?" Zhao Xiaofei asked.
Everyone nodded. Except for Fang Xinyu, no one had expected that Prince Tang Tang would actually personally admit his mistake and point out where it was wrong. It was truly rare.
Qin Yiming said, "Your Highness, I believe we have learned our lesson this time. Next time, we will be able to completely wipe out the enemy and restore peace to the Ming Dynasty!"
"No need to talk about this kind of flattery! According to the plan that Brother Fang and I discussed, we will carry out targeted training for the White Pole Army. We must recruit new troops and train them as soon as possible!" Zhao Xiaofei said. After that, he looked at Ma Wanchun and said, "Prince Chuan, I will have to rely on you to worry about me in the future!"
"Your Highness, you're welcome. I will do my best!" Ma Wanchun said in a humble manner.
"That's good! After I leave, please take care of it, King Chuan! The supplies will be delivered soon, so you don't have to worry about money!" said Zhao Xiaofei.
"Of course! Of course!" Ma Wanchun nodded.
Returning to the courtyard arranged by Prince Chuan, Zhao Xiaofei met Shen Yunying.
Shen Yunying immediately knelt on one knee and said, "I, the humble girl, greet Your Majesty! I didn't know you were my prince before. Please forgive me for any offense I have committed!"
