Hou Ye's palm heart is a black lotus

Chapter 663: Teaching without Discrimination (Part )
Eunuch Li hurried over and handed the urgent message to Emperor Mu Wu.

Emperor Mu Wu quickly opened it and read it carefully word by word and line by line. It was indeed the handwriting of Prince Nan of Yan!

He became excited and couldn't help laughing. He kept saying, "Good! Good! Good! This is a great victory. King Yannan and all the soldiers have made great contributions! I will definitely reward them generously!"

The originally dull and serious atmosphere in the hall was swept away, and everyone was shocked by this sudden good news.

"Great! King Yannan is indeed a brave general who has guarded the southwest for many years!"

"How many enemy troops did you kill? Five thousand, right?"

"That's right! That's a full 5,000 men! It was truly a great victory! King Yan Nan is still as skilled as ever, and he is indeed formidable!"

"I just heard that Lord Feng Zhang also participated in this battle? But I remember that he went to Xiacheng before? How... is he related to the battle in Longcheng?"

Some people couldn't help but ask the doubts in their hearts.

Hearing this, many people's expressions became subtle.

In fact, the urgent report just now did have several problems.

Although King Nan of Yan was stationed in the southwest, he did not station his troops in Longcheng. In addition, it was said above that a group of Nanhu bandits attacked Longcheng. What kind of bandits could have as many as 5,000 people?

If you think about it carefully, you can guess that there must be a lot of tricks hidden in this.

Most likely, the Nanhu sent troops to try to capture Longcheng, but were eventually quelled by the joint efforts of King Yannan and Feng Zhang!
However, since that was what the emergency report said, they naturally believed it.

Tang Zhongli stroked his beard with a smile, "Hey, on this battlefield, things change rapidly. Although Lord Feng Zhang was ordered to garrison Xiacheng, it is not far from Longcheng! Moreover, he and King Yannan are old acquaintances. The two of them cooperated well and easily killed all those Nanhu bandits! Isn't it better this way?"

Someone nearby quickly echoed, "Master Tang is absolutely right! This urgent report only has a few words, but it was earned by the soldiers fighting with real swords and guns! They just don't talk about the hardships, but we all have to have a scale in our hearts!"

Everyone was deeply moved by these words and nodded in agreement.

There is no fighting in the capital, but there is little peace at the border.

These were not just groups of refugees who burned, killed and looted, but a full five thousand people!
If we are not careful, Longcheng will fall!
How much will it cost to win this battle? !
Everyone had mixed emotions, but in the end, excitement and joy were the most common.

This is even more true for Emperor Mu Wu.

During this period of time, he always heard all kinds of bad news, which made him exhausted physically and mentally. Now, he suddenly received such good news. How could he not be overjoyed! ?

Of course he knew that the inside story must be different from the contents of the letter, but so what?
When King Yannan comes back, he will ask in person!
Emperor Mu Wu smiled and said, "Originally, I thought that the Prince of Yannan had not returned to the capital for several years and was separated from the Princess of Qinyang and her daughter. I couldn't bear it, so I specially summoned him to return to the capital in advance. Unexpectedly, the person who delivered the imperial edict has not returned yet, but the news of the victory of the Prince of Yannan has been sent back first!"

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

All the ministers congratulated him in unison, with smiles on everyone's faces.

Of course, it is unknown whether this smile is sincere or false.

Emperor Muwu read the letter again and suddenly thought of something.
"Hiss... King Yannan said in it that the victory in this battle was thanks to a fierce general under Feng Zhang, named Ye Yunfeng. Why does this name sound familiar to me? As if I have heard it somewhere before?"

Hearing this, everyone was stunned. Ye Yunfeng?
that is not--

A clear and deep voice sounded: "Your Majesty, the fourth brother of Ye Chutang of the Ye family is called this name."

But it was Shen Yanchuan who spoke first.

Emperor Mu Wu was amazed. "So, the person King Yan Nan was talking about was not someone else, but Ye Chutang's fourth brother!? Isn't it just a coincidence that they have the same name?"

Shen Yanchuan smiled faintly, "At the end of October last year, Ye Yunfeng went to Xiacheng with Lord Feng Zhang to join the army and guard the border. I think it should be him, there is no mistake."

"So that's how it is!" Emperor Mu Wu suddenly understood and laughed again, with an undisguised look of admiration on his face, "In this letter, King Yan Nan praised Ye Yunfeng highly! He even said that he is a natural born general! Brave and good at fighting! This time they were able to win the battle overnight, and this boy deserves the most credit!"

Everyone in the court knew how arrogant Feng Zhang was.

Although he was Feng Cheng's nephew, he never took shortcuts by relying on this status. He really fought his way out of the battlefield.

After the battle of Tongtian Pass a few years ago, he was so devastated and disheartened that he took off his military uniform and went to the Imperial College to become the dean.

It's useless to persuade anyone.

A few months ago, perhaps because Huo Yucheng's case was overturned, his worries were resolved and he finally regrouped and rushed to Xicheng to garrison.

If you just go out and ask around, you'll find out everything about these things.

But Feng Zhang actually took Ye Yunfeng away at that time, and very few people had heard of this.

No wonder everyone found it unbelievable when they heard it.

"So it was Lord Feng Zhang who brought him there personally? No wonder... I remember that Lord Feng Zhang liked Ye Yunfeng very much when he was in the Imperial College. Now he has only been at the border for a few months and he has made such a great contribution... Lord Feng Zhang really has a good eye for talent!"

"I remember that Ye Yunfeng seemed to be only fourteen? He joined the army at this age, right..."

"A young hero! Although he is young, he is brave and resourceful. Even King Yannan praised him so highly, which shows that he is indeed a rare military talent!"

"That's right! This is a blessing for your Majesty and the people!"

"Speaking of which, the children of the Ye family are really amazing... not to mention Ye Chutang, but now there is Ye Yunfeng who is good at fighting... I heard that her third brother is also quite famous in the Imperial College, right?"

"Hey, you'll have to ask Master Tang about this. He's one of his most famous students!"

"Oh, so Lord Tang must have known about Ye Yunfeng leaving the Imperial College and following Feng Zhang to guard the border, right? Could it be that... Lord Tang had already predicted this day?"

Some are curious, some are jealous, and some are testing.

But Tang Zhongli didn't care.

He put his hands behind his back and raised his chin slightly. Since he heard Ye Yunfeng's name, the corners of his mouth have never dropped.

It was not until everyone started talking and looking at him that he smiled, pressed his hands, and spoke calmly,
"Hey, hey, since you are the chief priest, teaching students is your job, how dare you take credit for it? As the saying goes, there is no distinction between the classes in education. If someone is good at studying, let him study with peace of mind. If someone is good at fighting, let him go to the battlefield and kill the enemy to make meritorious deeds!"
