Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 342 Situation

After eating and drinking enough, I wish Xiuyuan is getting better and better, as if all his strength has returned and he is no longer tired and uncomfortable.

"Changing clothes, my father-in-law and the others are discussing matters in the front hall. I will go there right away."

So Dong Shuzhen, Xia Wu and Qiu Wen, the three masters and servants, took action together.

Waiting for Zhu Xiuyuan to change clothes, wash up, and then let Qiu Wen, the "royal hairstylist", comb his hair.

The operation is as fierce as a tiger.

In just a quarter of an hour, Zhu Xiuyuan was already one of the best young men in troubled times.

Refreshed and full of energy, he was completely different from just now.

After sorting it out, Zhu Xiuyuan immediately rushed to the front hall of Dong Mansion.

"Father-in-law, gentlemen, I've been waiting for a long time, I've been waiting for a long time!"

"My dear son-in-law, you are here. Come and take a seat. We have been discussing this for half a day and are just waiting to hear your opinion."

"It's broken. The Yan army has retreated for a long time. I don't know when it will come back again. That fierce fire oil..." After Zhu Xiuyuan sat down, he suddenly thought of this section.

"My dear friend, don't worry."

Yan Dashan stood up from his seat and automatically walked behind Zhu Xiuyuan, standing guard.

In the ten days of defending the city, Yan Dashan's contribution was seen by everyone.

Although he was following Zhu Xiuyuan, Yan Dashan had achieved a corresponding status and was recognized by the big guys present.

He also got a seat in this council.

However, as soon as Zhu Xiuyuan arrived, Yan Dashan immediately stood up, leaned over and stood behind Zhu Xiuyuan, pretending to be Zhu Xiuyuan's follower.

"After the Yan army retreated, my subordinates have sent civilian men overnight to continue carrying heavy fire oil from Lushan. It started from the Yan army's retreat last night and has not stopped for a moment until now!"

"Okay, Dashan, you did a good job!" Zhu Xiuyuan nodded and ignored Dashan standing behind him.

"By the way, father-in-law, and everyone, have you found out the reason why the Yan army retreated?"

"I've found it out, I've found it out!" Liu Wencai clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Brother Zhu, you will never guess the reason why the Yan army retreated, hahaha! It's really satisfying. Think of Zhao Pu, he is invincible, it is almost a myth among the Yan army , but this time I was defeated by Brother Zhu, hahaha..."

Liu Wencai burst into laughter, patted his knees repeatedly, and laughed so hard that he was indeed very happy.

"Is that Zhao Pu out of anger?" Zhu Xiuyuan guessed.

Ok?
Liu Wencai's laughter stopped suddenly and she couldn't help but look at Zhu Xiuyuan: "Brother Zhu, how did you guess it right at once? Before we found this letter, none of us guessed it right!"

"Oh, is that true?" Zhu Xiuyuan was dumbfounded.

Dong Cheng smiled and said, "Yes, yesterday evening, the Yan army suddenly retreated. We were extremely confused, so we immediately sent out scouts to investigate."

"This morning, the scouts reported that Zhao Pu, the fourth prince of the Yan Kingdom, was depressed because he could not attack for a long time. He actually fainted in the Chinese army's tent yesterday night."

"It is said that Zhao Pu had vomited blood a few days ago. It seems that he has been suffering for a long time, haha!" Jiang Governor Li Linzhou twisted his beard and laughed.

"The general in the army fainted and fell unconscious. The counselors, generals, etc. in the Yan army have long been urging Zhao Pu to retreat. Now that the general cannot take charge, the counselor has made the decision to retreat!"

"The scout just came to report back. He said that Zhao Pu has not woken up yet. Haha, it seems that he was indeed very angry this time!"

"Lord Sima, we also found out that most of the prefectures and counties around Jiangzhou have been taken back and the Yan army has been driven away..."

"Is that true?" Zhu Xiuyuan was extremely surprised.

According to his previous predictions, this turmoil may last for a long time. From this point of view, it may be over soon.

That's a good thing!
"Well, we also waited for the Yan army to retreat, and then we learned that the Liang Kingdom had forced Beiyuan and Tibet back, freed up its hands, and had already issued a warning to the Yan army that invaded our Chen Kingdom." There are also troops from all over the Chen Kingdom rushing to help, as well as soldiers sent by the imperial court, all approaching the Yan army..."

"The Yan army that besieged our Jiangzhou City retreated, firstly because Zhao Pu fainted, and secondly because of the general trend. The Yan army's invasion of our Chen country this time is about to fail completely!"

it is good!
Really good news!
Zhu Xiuyuan was about to say something when suddenly a drake voice came from outside the outer hall: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived!"

Your Royal Highness?

Everyone was stunned.

It seems that during the ten most difficult days in Jiangzhou, His Highness the Crown Prince never showed up.

So much so that everyone has almost forgotten that there is such a great god in Jiangzhou City.

Now that the Yan army has retreated, the situation is very good, and His Royal Highness the Prince finally came out of the back house of the Yamen.

After staying for a while, everyone came to their senses and immediately went out to greet him.

Although His Highness the Prince is very timid, his identity is here after all!

Zhu Xiuyuan and everyone came out of the hall, and saw a man walking quickly. He was slim and handsome, with broad shoulders and long body, and he moved with extraordinary grace.

But he walked too fast and too hastily, almost like a trot, and lost some of his image.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince!" Everyone greeted.

"No courtesy, no courtesy!" The prince took two quick steps forward, and the eunuchs behind him couldn't keep up.

"Master Governor, Master Sima, I heard that the Yan army has retreated?" the prince asked hurriedly.

"Your Highness, the Yan army has indeed retreated!" Zhu Xiuyuan replied.

"Okay, okay, the Yan army finally retreated."

The prince was obviously relieved, and his back straightened even more.

He said loudly: "This time Jiangzhou defends the city for ten days, and the fourth prince of Yan State, Zhao Pu, personally leads the troops, it is extremely difficult!"

"When I return to the court, I will ask my father for your credit! Especially Lord Sima Zhu Xiuyuan and Lord Governor Dong Cheng. You have turned Jiangzhou into a fortified city, which can be said to be the greatest contribution!"

"When I report this to my father and the queen, I believe that my father will definitely give me a heavy reward!"

"Thank you, Your Highness, the Crown Prince. The fact that Jiangzhou City was able to hold out for ten days despite the Yan army's strong attack is the credit of all the city defenders, civilians, and the people of Jiangzhou City. I don't dare to take the credit!"

"Haha, everyone is rewarded, everyone is rewarded!"

"Your Highness, this is not the place for conversation. Please go into the hall to discuss in detail."

The prince nodded and immediately entered the hall, followed by everyone.

During the process of entering the hall, Zhu Xiuyuan thought to himself: "Although this prince is cowardly, he is not very thoughtful. If the prince comes here to steal the credit, it will be a fucking plot!"

When everyone entered the hall, the prince naturally sat in the main seat, while Zhu Xiuyuan, Dong Cheng and others could only sit in the guest seats.

After the new tea was replaced, the prince asked about the ten-day battle and had a full understanding of new weapons such as fierce fire oil urns, firecrackers, thunder, and fierce fire oil tanks.

After half an hour.

After the prince understood it, he felt very high-spirited.

He made it clear again that he would report to his father and reward Dong Cheng, Zhu Xiuyuan and others severely. These are all meritorious officials!

Especially Zhu Xiuyuan, who in times of danger forged various new weapons and possessed the power of ghosts and gods, has made a great contribution. He is simply a pillar of the Chen Kingdom that is rare to see in a hundred years!
