    The generals from Yizhou and the white-faced and beardless men came to the inner house and were quickly invited in by Li Minglou.

    There were several boys and girls around ten years old playing in the corridor. When they saw them coming, these children raised the door curtain.

    The general in Yizhou City held his breath and saw the woman sitting in the room.

    Only then did he realize why the general just smiled meaningfully at him: "Go and see, our Mrs. Wu is different from before."

    I thought it was about getting a title and becoming the master of Huainan Road, but it turns out

    He looked at the fairy in the room, and the fairy looked at him.

    "Are you General Zhou's lieutenant?" she asked.

    The sweet fairy music brought the distant soul back to its place. The deputy general bowed his head and saluted: "The last general, Li Cheng, has met the young lady."

    "A lot of goods have been delivered here from Yizhou before." Li Minglou said, "So many goods have been sent here again this time, General Zhou is worried."

    He also asked Zhou Xian how he was doing there and what the situation was like with the rebels around him.

    With his head lowered and just listening to the voice, Li Cheng felt that Mrs. Wu was still the same as before. At that time, she followed the army all the way and never left behind when charging into battle. She would care about their food and drink, and check on their injuries.

    Li Cheng answered one by one that the Zhao King's defense of the city was tragic. The soldiers and civilians of Yizhou City were dedicated to resisting the enemy and joined the army to train hard. The inside and outside were as strong as iron barrels. The thousand soldiers and horses left by Zhou Xian have now expanded to nearly 10,000.

    "The general said that he will lead his troops to connect Yizhou with Xuanwu Road and Huainan Road." He said happily and couldn't help but gesticulate.

    Zhou Xianchang's dream was bigger than this. After connecting, he turned into a sharp arrow and only aimed at the capital, and attacked with Governor Wu from front to back, quelling the rebellion in one fell swoop.

    Li Minglou smiled: "Let's work together."

    Li Cheng¡¯s eyes were a little dazzled. Previously, the woman was covered in robes and walking around in the daytime as if she were a ghost. But everyone called her a fairy. Now she looks like a fairy, so it¡¯s the same as before.

    The god smiled again: "There is no need to connect to Xuanwu Road first, let's take back Huainan Road from the southeast."

    Half of the Huainan Road east of Guangzhou is still in the hands of the rebels. There are tens of thousands of original Huainan Road troops led by Ma Jiang. Next to them is the Ande Zhong Army in western Zhejiang. The Ande Zhong Army repelled Qishan and took half of the Huainan Road.  Occupied the southeast, with tens of thousands of troops.

    Over there are rebels who are no less powerful than the capital, and a fight would be as miserable as hell.

    Li Cheng fell from the sky, lowered his head and answered yes.

    "Who is this?" Li Minglou looked at the man with a white face and no beard.

    This man has a pale complexion and a gentle aura. He looks forty years old, but also looks like he is thirty. He is standing quietly in the room wearing a green shirt. If you don't look at him, he seems not to exist, but when you  Looking at him, he is as fresh as the ears of rice and wheat.

    Li Minglou noticed that he came in with Li Cheng, and Li Cheng made a mistake.

    Hearing Li Minglou ask, he leaned over and saluted: "I'm still here, I've seen my wife."

    It¡¯s not over yet?  This is a pseudonym.

    "Only eunuchs call themselves old slaves. Although Li Minglou had seen those eunuchs in Prince Zhao's Mansion, he came and went without knowing them.

    Li Cheng introduced: "He is the chamberlain of Prince Zhao's Mansion. He is familiar with Yizhou City. When the general wants to lead troops, he will be asked to manage Yizhou as the city guard."

    Is the city guarded?  At the prefect level, Li Minglou frowned slightly. He didn't know whether it was Zhou Xian who invited it or Yizhou City took the initiative to send it.

    One word can contain many meanings.

    Zhou Xian is a military general. She doesn't have to worry about fighting and protecting the city. She may not be able to defeat some people in running the city. Has he been bullied by the wealthy families in Yizhou City?  Not if you are bullied!

    Li Minglou didn¡¯t speak, and the atmosphere in the room became a little stagnant.

    Jiang Liang and Liu Fan also stared at the eunuch, one with a contemptuous look and the other with an arrogant look, as if they wanted to make him run away.

    He didn¡¯t run away. In fact, he didn¡¯t even seem to see Jiang Liang and Liu Fan sitting beside them.

    "Madam, it was I who requested the order from General Zhou." He said proactively, "General Zhou has to do many hard jobs in training troops and commanding the city, and Yizhou City is also different from other cities. There are no imperial officials, and His Highness King Zhao has always taken care of it himself.  , many rules are different.¡±

    So they don¡¯t listen to outsiders¡¯ management?

    Li Minglou said: "Rules are created from scratch. Now everyone is used to chaos."

    Jiang Liang then followed: "Speaking of which, our Guangzhou Prefecture has different rules than before. In the peaceful and prosperous times, there were no entry fees or land protection fees. Everyone was not used to it at first, but it is not impossible. The world is like thisNo matter the chaos, rules must follow the trend.  "

    What will happen to the family that is not used to the rules now? The blood on the execution ground has not yet dried.

    Yizhou City is not a bad idea.

    Weijie took a step back and knelt down.

    "Madam, the old slave grew up in Prince Zhao's Mansion. Now that Prince Zhao has passed away, we are left as useless people. We all propose to follow Prince Zhao." He said, "But the old slave's wish for Prince Zhao has not yet been fulfilled, and we cannot die.  , we should guard Yizhou City and the people for King Zhao, see that the rebels are put down, that the world is restored to peace, that the blood of King Zhao's family has not been shed in vain, and then we will follow His Highness."

    He leaned over and kowtowed.

    "So in the name of unfinished business, the old slave recommended himself to assist General Zhou in managing Yizhou City. He has no other demands but to inherit King Zhao's wish."

    He raised his head, his eyes sparkling with tears. For the first time, Li Minglou saw that the tearful eyes of a man in his thirties or forties could be as clear as a child's.

    "Before his death, King Zhao entrusted the city of Yizhou to his wife. This is my wife's Yizhou. General Zhou asked me to be the city guard. Originally, I wanted to write a letter to ask my wife for instructions, but it was me who requested to come and see her in person."

    He leaned over again and put his forehead on the ground.

    "Please, madam, entrust the city of Yizhou to the old slave. The old slave is willing to shed the last drop of his blood for it."

    Li Minglou looked at the servant kneeling on the ground and said, "You must always remember how King Zhao died."

    ?????????????? Raised his head and said: "I recite it silently every day when I wake up, recite it silently every day before going to bed, recite it every time before eating, and never forget it day and night."

    Li Minglou said: "Since we are the defenders of the city, don't call me old slave. Sir, please rise."

    Wei Wei raised his head and smiled at her with tears in his eyes: "Thank you, madam. Wei takes the order."

    Jiang Liang looked at the end of his departure and commented: "This person should not be underestimated. King Zhao has no ambitions, but the servants live with King Zhao as their sustenance. After King Zhao dies, they must find new sustenance if they want to live."

    And is this sustenance good or evil?  Whether you are in control or out of control is a matter of thought.

    "It is based on King Zhao's death wish." Liu Fan hummed, "I think this person's demeanor is better than yours."

    Jiang Liang picked out what he liked to hear from his words: "Ah, you also think that I am good, you are really wise."

    Liu Fan snorted and ignored him, turned to look at Li Minglou and asked what he was talking about before: "Madam, are you going to let these aristocratic families go and reduce the amount of rice and grain money they pay in the future?"

    Li Minglou said: "Except for the Huang family and others, what they want is just a small profit, and they are not really trying to harm the peace of Guangzhou Prefecture. Our purpose is to stabilize Guangzhou Prefecture and just put a warning on it. They are not rebels after all.  Kill too many of them and the people will be afraid.¡±

    Jiang Liang nodded while holding the big tea cup: "After the thunder, the rain comes, and the aristocratic family must be grateful to my wife."

    "I don't care whether they hate me or be grateful, whether they are willing or swallow their anger, as long as they don't destroy my Guangzhou Prefecture." Li Minglou said.

    Jiang Liang nodded again: "Madam, she is broad-minded and has no desires but is strong."

    Li Minglou looked at him and smiled: "Thank you for the compliment."

    Like in his previous life, Jiang Liang often praised her at that time, saying that she was smart and intelligent, and that she was a heroic man among women. Of course, she didn't really believe his words at that time. Being praised was her daily routine, just like eating and drinking.

    Jiang Liang said: "No thanks, Madam deserves to be praised."

    Liu Fan couldn't stand it anymore, so he couldn't help but pulled Jiang Liang to leave. Jiang Liang walked to the door and broke away, saluting Li Minglou and saying thank you.

    Li Minglou asked in confusion: "Thank me for what?"

    Jiang Liang said sincerely: "Thank you, Madam, for catching me."

    Li Minglou laughed.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
