Zhenwu Tianxia: Summon Yuwen Chengdu at the beginning

Chapter 181 You Are Too Confident

Within the imperial city.

In a study of the Supervisor of Rituals.

Eunuch Lu looked at Wang An in surprise, his wrinkled face was full of surprise and anger.

His slightly sunken eyes were like an abyss, revealing a palpitating chill.

"You betrayed His Majesty!"

"This subordinate did not betray His Majesty!" Wang An bowed his head and said.

"But you took refuge in Prince Rui!" Eunuch Lu's voice became more and more gloomy.

Wang Andao: "Take refuge in Prince Rui, it doesn't mean that this subordinate has betrayed His Majesty, and this subordinate is still His Majesty's loyal servant!"

Eunuch Lu looked at him with gloomy eyes.

This seems to be correct, Wang An did not betray the old master, but just chose a new master for the future.

"His Royal Highness Prince Rui wants to see the admiral!" Wang An said in a low voice.

Eunuch Lu's eyes were slightly closed, and his thin body leaned on the large seat.

He knew that in the capital, all the palaces were fighting endlessly, but he didn't expect that even Qin Wei, Prince Rui, would get involved.

"It's no wonder that the Imperial City Division has rarely reported information about Shuzhou recently. It turns out that you did it!"

"You should know the rules of the Imperial City Division!"

Wang An trembled slightly when he heard this.

For traitors, there is only one rule of Huangcheng Division, and that is to leave the whole body.

"Admiral, this subordinate did not betray His Majesty!"

Wang An said again.

Eunuch Lu opened his eyes suddenly, the deep eyes seemed to swallow Wang An.

Being stared at by him like this, Wang An's heart suddenly trembled.

The terrifying pressure and the dull atmosphere made it extremely difficult for Wang An to breathe.

He complained incessantly.

His legs couldn't help but bend down, wanting to kneel down and beg for mercy.

But he resisted the idea of ​​kneeling down, bowed his head and remained silent.

Because he understands Eunuch Lu's temperament very well, if Eunuch Lu wants to kill you, he will never give you any chance to speak.

Now that Eunuch Lu didn't kill him, it means that he still has a chance to speak.

Kneeling down meant that he felt ashamed and that he was no longer loyal to His Majesty.

He can't kneel, once he kneels, he can only die.

He can only hold on now, if he shows a little timidity, Eunuch Lu will kill him.

After a long time, when Wang An's heart was about to sink to the bottom, Eunuch Lu said, "Where is His Royal Highness Prince Rui?"

"In the city." Wang An's voice trembled slightly.

He didn't want to show any weak emotions, but he still didn't hold back, his trembling voice revealed his fear and anxiety at this moment.

Eunuch Lu stood up and slowly got off his seat.

Seeing this, Wang An's heart suddenly rose in his throat.

He was really afraid that Eunuch Lu would slap him to death in a fit of anger.

However, Eunuch Lu didn't seem to have the intention to kill him. When he walked to Wang An's side, he said, "Tell me where I am, and I will meet him."

"After the subordinate confirms with His Highness, he will report to the admiral." Wang An bent over and said.

Eunuch Lu glanced at him, and Wang An couldn't help trembling again with his gloomy eyes.

"Well done!"

After that, he turned and walked out of the room.

"Hu~~"

Wang An waited for him to walk away before letting out a long breath, and took out the handkerchief in his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

……

Yunyan City.

The originally majestic Yunyan City looked very dilapidated at this moment.

A fire burned the buildings in Yunyan City to black and gray. After several battles, corpses were piled up inside and outside Yunyan City. Dark red bloodstains covered almost every corner of Yunyan City. The bloodstains and black ash mixed together, emitting charred The smell of paste and blood makes people sick.

At this time, both the defenders of Yunyan City, the Tianying Army of Beiyuan City and the frontier troops brought by Bai Qi chose to set up camp outside the city, and it was really impossible to live in the city.

On the open space in the north of the city, there are thousands of military tents, and the huge camp is opposed to the Rong camp on the opposite side.

The Rong people did not retreat. Although Beiyuan City's support had arrived, they still had no intention of giving up.

At this time, in the camp of the Skyhawk Army, Situ Changkong was gathering with Yuwen Chengdu, Bai Qi and others.

Several generals of the Skyhawk Army are reporting the battle during the day.

After Uher's retreat, the Skyhawk Army did not stop immediately, but sent a large number of cavalry squads to clean up the surrounding Rong cavalry.

"Currently, the Rong cavalry around Yunyan City have all been repelled, and the reinforcements from various ministries should arrive tomorrow or the day after."

"In addition, we have contacted the Qinzhou Frontier Army Envoy. They have already summoned [-] frontier troops, and they are expected to arrive in Yunyan City in five days."

"There is also a message from the capital that Mr. Zhu Guo came to the governor's north to fight the war. The Beijing camp sent [-] forbidden troops. It will take about half a month for Mr. Zhu's commander-in-chief to arrive at Yunyan City."

A general from Beiyuan City reported.

Situ Changkong nodded slightly after listening.

"Judging from the current situation, the Rong people will not retreat easily. They obviously plan to spend with us and wait for the opportunity."

"General Yuwen, General Bai, we can be in charge of guarding Yunyan City, but we cannot guarantee that the Rong people will not attack from other border cities."

Situ Changkong looked at Yuwen Chengdu and Bai Qi, and said solemnly.

The north of Dali is extremely long. Although there are a large number of frontier fortresses and piers on the border, they cannot be foolproof.

Yuwen Chengdu and Bai Qi looked at each other. This matter is beyond their control. After all, they are only the general soldiers of the two cities, and the combined area under their jurisdiction is only more than 400 miles. Other border cities and pier fortresses still need frontier soldiers The company will make a unified deployment.

What's more, the soldiers under their command have suffered heavy casualties, even if they want to do something, they are powerless.

"City Master Situ, we will report this matter to the envoy's office as soon as possible. I believe that the envoy's office will make arrangements." Yu Wencheng said.

Situ Changkong nodded slightly, then thought for a while, and said, "In that case, let's spend time with them first, and discuss with Lord Zhu after his arrival."

……

The outskirts of Kyoto.

On the shore of Mingxin Lake, the bright sun shines on the lake, sparkling with sparkling waves.

An exquisitely decorated wooden boat was docked at the pier by the lake. Qin Wei was wearing white clothes and a bamboo hat, standing at the bow.

Xiao Shunzi boiled water to make tea in the cabin, and the breeze blew by, carrying a wisp of tea fragrance to the shore.

A carriage came to the pier slowly along the lakeside path, the carriage stopped, and Eunuch Lu slowly got out of the carriage with a bamboo stick in his hand.

He looked up at the wooden boat parked on the pier with deep eyes.

Stepping on the wooden boat, the wooden boat slowly left the pier and rowed towards the center of the rippling lake.

Standing in the cabin, looking at Qin Wei's back, Eunuch Lu's eyes were full of complicated emotions.

Two years ago, when Qin Wei left the capital, he was just a kid, but now that Qin Wei returned to the capital again, he felt an inexplicable awe.

"The old slave pays homage to Your Highness!"

He bowed.

Qin Wei turned around and took off the bamboo hat on his head, with a smile on his face.

"Eunuch Lu, long time no see!"

"Yeah, long time no see!" Eunuch Lu said with some emotion.

Qin Wei entered the cabin and sat at the tea table. Xiao Shunzi immediately poured tea for the two of them.

The elegant tea fragrance permeates the cabin, and the warm lake breeze blows gently, taking away a few wisps of tea fragrance secretly.

"Is the emperor's health okay?" Qin Wei picked up the tea, took a sip, and asked.

Eunuch Lu looked at him, "Your Majesty is well."

Qin Wei nodded, he knew that Eunuch Lu would not tell him the truth.

He played with the tea bowl in his hand, looked at the dark green tea leaves at the bottom of the bowl, and said calmly: "The emperor has never been optimistic about this king. He thinks that this king is young, and he thinks that this king is not worthy of a big responsibility."

"Actually, this king understands Grandpa Huang very well, but this king still wants to fight."

"In the eyes of this king, the most suitable person in Dali to inherit the throne is this king."

Eunuch Lu's eyes were fixed, what he said was too explicit.

"Is Your Highness young and frivolous?"

"Young and frivolous!" Qin Wei raised his head and looked at Eunuch Lu in astonishment, but then he couldn't help showing a wry smile.

"Even you think so?"

Young and crazy!

This is probably the most suitable word to describe Qin Wei.

Because he is really young.

No matter what he said or did when he was young, others would think it was arrogance.

Eunuch Lu frowned slightly, then lowered his head and said, "This old slave made a mistake!"

Qin Wei shook his head slightly, "Perhaps this is how this king feels."

What he did in the capital at the beginning seemed a bit youthful and frivolous. Even Cheng Guogong's mansion was surrounded by his troops. If it wasn't for Li Huang's support behind him, how could his behavior be described as young and frivolous? .

"But no one in this world seems to know how much power this king possesses." Qin Wei raised his head and looked at Eunuch Lu with shining eyes.

Eunuch Lu also raised his head, and when he saw his eyes, he couldn't help feeling a little lost.

Qin Wei spread his hands, took out several chess pieces, and placed one of them on the tea table.

"The Zhen Wu Division covers thirteen states, has 30 town warrior soldiers, and more than [-] ninth-rank masters."

"Li Ru served as a political envoy in Yuanzhou, collecting taxes and envoys, and taking over military power."

"Yu Wencheng is in the frontier army. He is the commander-in-chief, with tens of thousands of soldiers under his command."

"This king is in Shuzhou, and he can call in [-] guards!"

Every time Qin Wei said a word, a pawn would be dropped.

However, Eunuch Lu shook his head after listening, "It's not enough!"

Qin Wei smiled, it's not enough to rely on these alone, these are just his strength on the surface.

It is also the power that everyone thinks he can control.

He placed a chess piece on the tea table again, and said, "Luo Wang, I believe Eunuch Lu has heard of it."

"En!" Eunuch Lu nodded.

The existence of Luowang is a secret to most people, but it is not a secret to Eunuch Lu, who is in charge of Zhenwu Division.

However, although he knew the existence of the net, he didn't know how powerful the net was.

Qin Wei continued: "Luo Wang, there are three innate warriors, and hundreds of warriors above the seventh rank. Relying on the Imperial City Division, they have created an intelligence system belonging to this king."

As soon as these words came out, Eunuch Lu's sunken eyes suddenly narrowed.

Relying on the Imperial City Division?
This!
He thought of Wang An, and instantly felt uneasy.

"Don't worry, this king didn't destroy the Imperial City Division, but just borrowed some power from the Imperial City Division." Qin Wei saw his worry and explained.

Today's Luowang has established its own intelligence system relying on the Imperial City Division, covering Dali Thirteen Prefectures and Kyoto, as well as the southern barbarian country.

Qin Wei took down a chess piece again, and said, "This king has arranged three chess pieces in the capital."

He straightened his expression and said solemnly: "The first one, Ye Gucheng!"

Eunuch Lu's body trembled.

Ye Gucheng!
He never thought that Ye Gucheng would belong to Qin Wei.

Not only him, but everyone would not think of this aspect.

Ye Gucheng is a strong man in the three congenital realms, and is known as the existence of Dali Sword Saint by the world.

How could such a strong person be inferior to a prince?
Perhaps in the eyes of the general public, the prince is extremely noble, but in the eyes of the strong innate three realms, the prince is just the son and grandson of the prince.

In the entire Dali, the only existence worthy of the surrender of the strong innate three realms is the current Emperor Li.

Qin Wei continued to drop a chess piece. "The second one, Cao Zhengchun, is Zhu Ji!"

Eunuch Lu's face turned pale instantly.

Zhuji!

The recipient is the sharpest sharp knife in Li Huang's hands. There are only 300 people in total, and there are three leaders, and Zhu Ji is one of them.

"The third one, Wang Shouren!"

Eunuch Lu's face turned pale again.

The current Wang Shouren is not considered a big man, but this does not mean that he is irrelevant, on the contrary, he is a very important figure in the Dali court.

Because he is Yan Zhen's closed disciple, a representative of Yan Zhen's lineage of Confucianism cultivators, and the leader of Dali's future Confucianism cultivators.

Moreover, Wang Shouren is still the most likely person among Dali Confucianism Cultivators to become a master.

"why?"

He looked at Qin Wei with a trembling voice.

Qin Wei shook his head and said, "Grandpa Huang has a fatal weakness, and this weakness also appeared in you."

"What weakness?"

"You guys are too confident!" Qin Wei said.

Li Huang is unparalleled in his calculations and has great courage, but he has been the emperor for more than 40 years, and decades of dominance made him arrogant.

To put it simply, the current Lihuang feels like he underestimates the people of the world.

He has such qualifications, but he should not have such a habit.
