The evil forces roaming the heavens

Chapter 1267 Dressed in fine clothes and riding a spirited horse, he enters Shuntian!
Two weeks later, the transfer order arrived in Goryeo.
When they learned that Feng Tang had been granted the title of Marquis of Loyalty and Righteousness, and Jia Jue had been granted the title of Earl of Loyalty and Martial Valor, many military generals became envious.
Because everyone knows that Feng Tang did three things when he came to Goryeo: he played music, danced, and incidentally released Jia Jue!
The problem is, Zhang Cheng is really good at fighting. 150,000 Japanese invaders had even reached Ryugyong, but he managed to force them all the way back to Busan and annihilate them along the way!

Even the Jurchen Tartars who came to steal were decimated in Anzhou, losing more than half their forces, and even seven of Nurhaci's sons were killed.
Rumors are circulating in the army that Zhang Cheng abandoned the Plain White Banner and the Bordered White Banner mainly because he was held back by these princes. If he didn't want to kill these people, then the Plain White Banner and the Bordered White Banner would probably lose another banner!

Upon seeing the eunuch delivering the imperial decree, Zhang Cheng immediately stepped forward with a smile to receive it, and then said, "You've worked hard, sir. Please come into the mansion and rest!"

As he spoke, Zhang Cheng casually slipped several expensive pearls into his palm.

Touching the object in his hand, the eunuch delivering the imperial decree immediately smiled and said, "Earl Jia is truly meticulous! I was just getting tired!"

Upon entering the mansion, one could see many cheerful generals already making a ruckus.

Seeing everyone's expressions, Zhang Cheng quickly returned the greeting with a cupped-hand salute.

Upon entering the main room, the eunuch greeted him with a broad smile, saying, "Earl Jia, the old master once told me that His Majesty and the Emperor Emeritus are very satisfied with your performance, and they might very well keep you in the capital!"

Upon hearing the eunuch's words, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but smile and ask, "May I ask who the ancestor the angel is referring to?"

"The ancestor of this miscellaneous school was the chief eunuch of the six palaces!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with a meaningful expression, the eunuch couldn't help but smile.

"So it's Supervisor Xia! Then we're on the same side, on the same side!"

With a broad smile, Zhang Cheng waved his hand and said, "Brother Wei, get this angel some Korean specialties!"

"Yes, Uncle!"

After leaving the room, Jia Wei returned shortly after, placed a jewelry box on the table, and went out again.

"Earl Jia, what is this?"

The little eunuch looked at Zhang Cheng with curiosity, somewhat surprised.

"These are specialties I collected in Korea. I'm sure you've never seen them before, Father-in-law! They're just some common items!"

As he spoke, Zhang Cheng opened the box and handed it to the other person.
When the young eunuch saw what was inside the box, he couldn't help but gasp.
Because it was filled with priceless pearls, each one worth over a hundred taels of silver in the Great Qian Dynasty.
"Earl Jia, isn't this too much?"

Staring in astonishment at Zhang Cheng, the little eunuch hesitated to accept the food, as there was simply too much!

Patting the other person's hand, Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "Angel, you must have had a long journey. It's just a local specialty. If you don't tell me and I don't tell you, who would know? Right?"

"Also, this is a gift for Eunuch Xia. Please take it back with you!"

After saying this, Zhang Cheng opened the box next to him, which was filled with neatly arranged jewelry!
"Earl Jia is truly one of our own!"

Seeing this scene, the young eunuch immediately smiled.

"I still don't know my father-in-law's name. When I go to the capital in the future, we can catch up!"

Looking at the young eunuch before him, Zhang Cheng asked with a smile,

"My name is Luo! Earl, you can just call me Little Luo!"

When speaking to Zhang Cheng, Eunuch Luo dared not be arrogant at this moment, because this man was a true patron!

"Then I will have to trouble Eunuch Luo a lot in the capital from now on!"

Looking at Eunuch Luo with a big smile, Zhang Cheng smiled back.

He didn't dislike eunuchs, because in those days, as long as one could survive, who would want to cut off their worries and enter the palace!
Of course, this does not rule out the possibility of someone like Wei Zhongxian appearing!

Before Wei Zhongxian entered the palace, his name was Li Jinzhong. He was a gambler who lost his wife and daughter. In the end, he was killed by a knife to escape his debts.
So, there's no such thing as a gambler losing every day, or a child crying all the time. If you lose gambling, the worst that can happen is you go to jail! Aren't the role models right in front of everyone?
A month later, the Goryeo army began to withdraw.
Looking at Feng Tang with a reluctant expression, the King of Goryeo almost grabbed his sleeve and begged him not to leave.

Because what if the Heavenly Kingdom's army leaves, and the Tartars return?
Looking at the King of Goryeo's appearance, Feng Tang couldn't help but twitch his lips, because this King of Goryeo was truly outrageous.

Everyone should just play along at the dinner table. Now that you're about to leave, why are you sending so many women to me? The eunuchs from the imperial court are still here!

Looking at the women queuing to board the boat, Eunuch Luo asked with a doubtful expression, "Who are these?"

"These are all the young ladies General Feng selected for His Majesty; they are absolutely beautiful." Zhang Cheng, wiping away cold sweat, handed the silver notes to Eunuch Luo.

Because Feng Tang really doesn't treat eunuchs like human beings, and he's not afraid that civil officials will find out and try to make trouble for him!
Feng Tang: He framed me! He framed me! Did you all see that?

Zhang Cheng:
The fleet left Goryeo and headed towards Jingu Port, without returning to Liaodong.

Zhang Cheng guessed that Emperor Hongde intended to build a new garrison of 20,000 soldiers who had participated in the Goryeo War in the capital.

After all, military power is currently in the hands of the retired emperor; otherwise, he wouldn't have taken this opportunity to mobilize troops into the capital.

However, Zhang Cheng didn't quite understand the affairs of the imperial court, because he hadn't yet become involved.

But since the retired emperor permitted this, it's very likely that some kind of agreement was reached between the two parties.

What Zhang Cheng didn't know was that the retired emperor didn't stop him because he considered Zhang Cheng one of his own, and the Hongde emperor felt the same way!
Both sides assumed Zhang Cheng would obey their orders, never considering that Zhang, weighing 100 pounds, might have 99 pounds of rebellious nature.

Shi Hu, who was once stationed at the gate, is the best example!

Shi Hu:
Zhang Cheng: If I don't rebel, how can I demonstrate my importance as a Yamen General?

Ran Min: What he said seems to make some sense!
Lu Yan: Oh my god, you scoundrel! He's gone mad, have you gone mad too?
Shuntian Prefecture, the capital city

As victorious soldiers returning home, they still walked through Deshengmen!

The dragon flag fluttered in the wind.

Mounted on his warhorse, Zhang Cheng gazed at the Hongde Emperor waiting for him at the city gate in the distance, and he couldn't help but squint.

Having heard beforehand that the emperor would be visiting in person, Zhang Cheng raised his arm, signaling the commander-in-chief's battalion behind him to prepare for battle.

"Boom boom boom!"

Their synchronized footsteps pounded the ground, and the earth began to tremble.
Looking at the battle-hardened warriors before him, Emperor Hongde couldn't help but feel excited, his hands clenching into fists.

At this moment, he finally understood why the retired emperor wanted to hold onto military power. He needed such power so that no one in the Dragon Head Palace would dare to point fingers at him.

"May the Great Qian Dynasty be victorious!"

Looking up into the distance, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but roar.

"May Your Majesty be victorious! May Your Majesty be victorious!"

A triumphant voice rang out, and with an awe-inspiring momentum, the army began to march into the capital.
Looking down with excitement, Emperor Hongde grasped the Empress's hand and said, "Zitong, do you see this? This is my army!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, these are all yours!"

Upon hearing Emperor Hongde's words, the Empress softened.
"Long live your Majesty, long live your Majesty!"

As soon as the soldiers' voices rang out, the people also shouted "Long live the Emperor!"
Dressed in a civil and military robe and wearing black armor, Zhang Cheng passed through the city gate, where countless people on both sides of the road were watching him.

"The general has returned! The general has returned!"

Looking at the valiant soldiers before them, they saw many women on the city walls scattering flowers, and some even throwing away their personal belongings.

Faced with all this, Zhang Cheng looked around with a warm smile.

"Is that Jue-ge'er? He's truly a young hero, one in a hundred years!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in surprise, Jia She stared at him with disbelief in his eyes.

Meanwhile, Jia Zheng was also looking at Zhang Cheng. However, while gazing at this young talent, what he was thinking was going back to kill that person who had been born into such a family!

Jia Baoyu:
"Miss? He seems to be looking at us!"

Hiding in a room at an inn, Ruizhu opened the window and looked at Zhang Cheng waving, then exclaimed in surprise.
She covered her lips with a handkerchief, but Qin Keqing, who was as beautiful as a fairy, quickly looked over.
But just then, a radiant face appeared, looking right at them.
