four watch time
Outside the city gate of Lin'an Mansion, many merchant convoys had already gathered, waiting in line.

At this point in time, it was only around three o'clock in the morning.

Similar to reality, the trucks that generally supply vegetable supplies to the city also start to enter the warehouse at this point.

The only difference is that the convoys of these merchants often have to wait until the fifth watch before entering the city.

However, as early as the third watch today, the gates of the city had already been opened, and all the caravans had to give way to the sides, looking into the distance one by one, as if they were waiting for someone to enter the city.

"Marshal Wu will come back today??"

"Almost, otherwise, who is waiting for such a big commotion?"

"Okay, we're lucky this time. It's worth seeing Marshal Wu, even if it's just a carriage."

Everyone said what they said.

It can be seen how high Wu Jie's reputation is in the hearts of many people.

In fact, the common people don't care who is the emperor.

But it would be different if they defeated the northern barbarians. Those barbarians treated them like two-legged lambs. Once they fell into the hands of these barbarians, life would be worse than death.

When Xuan Kun was destroyed, the city was massacred for three days, and blood flowed like rivers.

The ancestral graves of Emperor Xuanguo were dug up by the gang of barbarians. Not only did they loot all the funerary objects, but they even took out the heads of Emperor Xuanguo's ancestors and made them into jugs.

What's more, for so many years, Tiangan has not been able to get cheap from the northern barbarians for so many years.

Now, he finally let out a breath of anger and defeated the elite of the northern barbarians. As long as there is a man with a little blood in his heart, no one will applaud him.

Time passed minute by minute.

In the blink of an eye, the sun in the distance has begun to rise slightly, and the time has already passed the fifth watch, but none of the merchants outside the city entered the city.

If Marshal Wu doesn't enter the city, whoever dares to enter the city will not be afraid of being pierced through the backbone.

"coming!
coming!

Marshal Wu is back!

"

A little beggar shouted while running in the distance, everyone was immediately excited, and immediately looked up. Sure enough, on the avenue in the distance, a group of people was slowly approaching this side, and on the huge handsome flag was written a Wu character.

"Come back, come back!

"

Now everyone burst into tears of joy, and shouted the words "Wu Shuai triumphantly" in unison, the voice became louder and louder, and the whole Lin'an Mansion could hear it for a while.

Hearing the cheers outside, Wu Jie sat in the carriage, feeling very complicated.

Returning in triumph, these four words are what the generals of all dynasties hoped for.

But he and Xiao Chi have fought for so many years, although there are victories and losses, they dare not call it triumphant.

Now that I finally heard the belated celebratory sound, I am already in my twilight years.

But at the same time, he was also grateful.

Some people are young and successful, but it is just a fleeting brilliance.

Although I am a twilight achievement, I have already retired with a successful life.

There is no need to worry about the master of high meritorious service, and there is no need to make calculations for that petty profit.

Thinking about his life, the regret Wu Jie wants to say is that Xiao Chi died too hastily. He wished that this old friend would return to heaven. It would be nice to fight on the chessboard with this old friend for a few more years. …

At this time, the voices outside suddenly stopped.

Sitting on the shaft of the car and driving for his father, Wu Zhe's expression changed, and he quickly opened the curtain of the car: "Father, Marquis Shenwu is here to pick you up!"

Wu Jie looked at the shocked expression on his son's face, and his expression was slightly displeased. He thought that his son was the only thing that was not perfect in his life.

Although Marquis Shenwu was rich in the first battle and made outstanding achievements in battle, but after all, it is his subordinates, so it is no big deal to come to pick him up as the coach, so that they can enter the palace to face the saint together.

Just when Wu Jie wanted to reprimand Wu Zhe, Wu Jie almost bit his tongue when he heard Wu Zhe's next words.

"Father, he is holding Lu Yanfang's head in his hand."

"hiss!

What did you say!
"

Wu Jie gasped, his head was buzzing, and his heart was full of turbulent waves, with mixed feelings for a while.

Lu Yanfang, this name is undoubtedly the scar in the hearts of the soldiers of the three armies, and it is a shame that I don't want to mention it.

However, Yang Hong actually brought this person's head when he returned. This is not only a great comfort to his reputation, but also to the hearts of the soldiers of the three armies.

Immediately, Wu Jie didn't care about Wu Zhe anymore, and hurried out of the car to take a look, and sure enough, he saw Xu Tong standing there alone in front of the gate of the city gate, holding a human head in his hands and standing there quietly.

Looking at the bloody head, Wu Jie's eyes were already wet.

Standing on the shaft of the car for a while, raising and lowering his hands, not knowing what to do, the commander of the three armies, the heavenly god of war, couldn't control his emotions for a while.

He knew that no matter how great his reputation was and how much credit he had made, but facing a despicable person like Lu Yanfang, it was like a lump in his throat that he couldn't swallow.

He might be able to give up his merits in exchange for Xiao Chi's life, but he couldn't use his military achievements to exchange Lu Yanfang's life.

Because Lu Yanfang is a person under the protection of his mentor, if he touches Lu Yanfang himself, he will smash the signboard of his mentor and break his promise.

But now, what he didn't dare to do, was done by Yang Hong. This bloody head is an elixir. Let him face those fallen soldiers in the future, and finally he can give them an answer.

Thinking of this, Wu Jie ran forward quickly, and the old man, who was already seventy years old, was walking like flying at this moment.

Without waiting for Wu Jie to approach, Xu Tong raised the head high with both hands, and knelt down on one knee like pushing a golden mountain upside down: "The last general Yang Hong pays homage to Wu Shuai, and here is the head of the deserter Lu Yanfang. The grievances of [-] soldiers today To be rehabilitated!"

Xu Tong's voice was like a bell, startling the sky and suppressing the clouds, as if there was a power penetrating the soul rippling over the entire Lin'an Mansion.

Shock everyone's heart.

Looking at this human head, Wu Jie burst into tears. He hugged Xu Tong's arm with both hands, and knelt heavily: "Marquis Wu Dayi, thank you thirty thousand soldiers on behalf of the striker!"

Outside the city gate, the two generals knelt down and bowed to each other, the old and the young embraced each other and wept. This scene shocked everyone's minds.

At this moment a cry sounded.

"God bless you, and your luck will last forever!"

As soon as these words came out, it was like a ray of sparks falling into the gasoline, instantly igniting a raging flame.

"God bless you, and your luck will last forever!" …

The voice of everyone shouting in unison completely spread out, shaking the white clouds in the sky to roll away, whether it was the common people and merchants waiting outside the city, or the gifted scholars and beauties in Lin'an Mansion, or even many noble manors, inside the private houses. All kinds of people can hear clearly.

At this moment, on the high wall of the imperial city, a young man in his early thirties was looking in the direction of Lin'anmen, his sharp eyes seemed to see a scene that shook people's hearts dozens of miles away.

He couldn't help taking a deep breath for a moment, and said: "Okay, good luck forever, old and new, my heavenly stem and national fortune are prosperous!"

When these words came out, all the court ladies and eunuchs behind them knelt down on the ground, and the leading eunuch hurriedly complimented: "Your Majesty is holy, my fortune is prosperous!"

"Decree that Xu Wujie and Shenwuhou enter the palace on horseback, and all the generals can bring their swords to the palace, and tell them that I will wait for them in the Daqing Palace."

"According to the order!"

The eunuch hurriedly gave the order, and sighed in his heart, this honor is too great, riding a horse into the palace, carrying a knife to the palace, only the Lord Guozhu is treated like this.

The decree was quickly sent to Xu Tong, Wu Jie and others.

The eunuch who came to read out the imperial decree also brought two BMWs specially: "These are authorized by the emperor to the Marshal and Marquis Wu. Please follow me into the palace quickly. The emperor is already waiting for you two in the Daqing Palace."

"God bless you, and your luck will last forever!"

In the back house of Guozhu Mansion, Lu Ji was sitting on a chair, crying very sadly. She didn't know about her younger brother Lu Yanfang's murder until yesterday.

She went to look for the master, but the master happened to be away, and now she sat on the chair with her stomach upright and cried more and more sadly.

At this moment, Lu Ji moved her ears and heard shouts from outside.

Immediately called the servants and asked: "What is the noise outside, what happened?"

As soon as these words came out, all the servants looked at each other for a while, but no one dared to say more.

"You bastards, what do I feed you to eat, if you don't speak, you will be beaten to death with sticks!"

Lu Ji's eyes were red, and her aura was as vicious as a she-wolf biting an antelope.

These servants no longer dared to hide anything. When they told about Yang Hong's offering of Lu Yanfang's head at Lin'an Gate, Lu Ji was stunned for a moment, glaring at the sky outside.

"Yang Hong! Yang Hong! My Lu family and you are inseparable!

"

A scream made Lu Ji feel dizzy. Fortunately, the servants around her were already guarding against her emotional discomfort. Seeing this, they quickly supported her. Seeing that Lu Ji had passed out, her expression changed drastically, and she hurriedly called for the imperial doctor...
