660 I Just Want to Express One Meaning
After winning the battle, Xiao Hanzheng asked the deputy general to count the casualties.
Then, he left a portion of people to set up camp outside the city to prevent the Ge Kingdom’s army from returning. He then led the other soldiers into the city.
Liang Hengxiao had already been helped downstairs by his personal attendants, and he was personally welcoming everyone at the city gate.
Xiao Hanzheng saw Liang Hengxiao and greeted him with a fist salute. “Greetings, Commander-in-Chief.”!!
The others also bowed to Liang Hengxiao.
“Thank you for your hard work, everyone!” Liang Hengxiao smiled.
He heaved a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they had won.
If he was defeated, he would commit suicide on the city wall as an apology. He would definitely not let the Ge Kingdom capture him.
Death was a small matter. He was afraid that he would let down the soldiers of Daliang who had sacrificed their lives, and he was afraid that he would let down his father.
Then, the group of people and the Third Prince entered the city.
The general and Xiao Hanzheng followed the Third Prince to his courtyard while the other soldiers were resting in the city.
When they entered the yard, Liang Hengxiao cupped his fists and thanked Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo. “It’s all thanks to you and your wife. I thank you on behalf of the whole army!”
He knew very well that without Xiao Hanzheng and Shi Qingluo, not only would he not wake up, but the border city would also be taken by Ge Kingdom and he would become a hostage.
The border of Daliang might be breached by Ge.
Xiao Hanzheng smiled. “You don’t have to do that, Commander-in-Chief. As an official of the imperial court, it is my duty to protect the country.”
“Not only us, the other soldiers also contributed a lot.”
His words warmed the hearts of the generals present.
“The Emperor has conferred me the title of Princess Fu Bao. Naturally, I can’t stand by and watch the enemy trample on Daliang’s territory,” Shi Qingluo chimed in from the side.
Liang Hengxiao knew that the two of them were the kind of people who did practical things. He smiled and said, “No matter what, it was all thanks to you that we were able to defeat Country Lord Ge this time. The others will also be rewarded according to their contributions.”
“Previously, the governor was unconscious, so I used the commander’s seal left behind by King Yi.”
Xiao Hanzheng took out the commander’s seal from his pocket and handed it to the Third Prince. “I will return it to you now.”
King Yi had taken this commander’s seal from the Third Prince before he left. He wanted to use it as a backup plan.
Now that the Third Prince was awake, Xiao Hanzheng would not take the commander’s seal.
Liang Hengxiao looked at the commander’s seal and thought to himself that Xiao Hanzheng was indeed an honest man who did not care about power.
If it were anyone else who had obtained such a large number of military merits, they would probably want to directly occupy the commander’s seal. How could they return it so quickly?
He didn’t take it. Instead, he smiled and said, “I won’t take this commander’s seal back for now. Although I’m awake, my body still needs some time to recover.”
“So, I’ll have to trouble Lord Xiao to help me take care of it again.”
“I’ll have to trouble Lord Xiao to take care of the battle at the border.”
“I will write a memorial about this and send it to the capital to report to my father, so you don’t have to feel burdened.”
Xiao Hanzheng was stunned and the other generals said, “Since the Third Prince trusts Lord Xiao so much, then Lord Xiao should accept it.”
“That’s right. Lord Xiao, you can continue to take care of the commander’s seal.”
Compared to the Third Prince, they believed in Xiao Hanzheng’s fighting ability more.
These people were all generals, so they preferred to be straightforward. Fortunately, Liang Hengxiao was not petty.
“That’s right, Lord Xiao, please take back the commander’s seal.” Liang Hengxiao smiled.
He knew that he could manage the northern borders and keep an eye on Ge Kingdom, but he was really not very good at fighting wars. It was all talk on paper.
Although Xiao Hanzheng was younger than him, he had a talent for fighting. He had witnessed it with his own eyes when he stood on the city wall.
As long as it was for Daliang’s own good, he did not mind giving up his power.
Hearing the Third Prince’s sincerity, Xiao Hanzheng thought for a moment and took the commander’s seal back.
He cupped his fists at the Third Prince again. “I will not disappoint the Commander-in-Chief’s trust.”
The Third Prince’s body was indeed not suitable for the battlefield. Moreover, the other party’s battle experience was not as strong as the Ge Kingdom’s generals, so it was easy for him to fall into a trap.
Previously, when the Third Prince was poisoned, he and the people in the city used carrier pigeons to send messages, but they did not have the chance to send the antidote to the city. It was because the carrier pigeon could not fly far with a bottle of medicine tied to it.
Even if he could tie it to a carrier pigeon and send it in, he didn’t dare to take the risk.
If someone swapped the antidote and something happened to the Third Prince, not only would he have to take the blame, but it would also be very disadvantageous to the war between the two countries.
“Of course I believe you,” Liang Hengxiao smiled.
Then, the few of them chatted for a while.
Shi Qingluo realized that a general was staring at her with a heated gaze.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” she asked.
Her face wasn’t bruised!
The general was a little embarrassed by this question.
He immediately explained, “Princess Fu Bao, please don’t misunderstand. I’m not being disrespectful to you. I’m just thinking about something.”
“What is it?” Shi Qingluo asked.
“I was thinking, can we ask your master for help in our future battles against Ge?” The general smiled.
As soon as he said this, the eyes of the others present lit up.
That’s right, why didn’t they think of this?
If Princess Fu Bao’s master could help her, it would be a piece of cake for them to defeat the Ge Kingdom with those destructive little black balls that fell from the sky.
Shi Qingluo was speechless. These people really knew how to think. They still wanted her master to help, but where could she find the old immortal?
She sighed. “I want to do that too, but I can’t.”
“Why?” the general asked hurriedly.
Shi Qingluo explained, “My master can’t meddle too much in the affairs of the mortal world. Otherwise, he would be committing a great taboo.”
“The reason why he helped before was because Ye Lui Donghe wanted to capture me. He was purely protecting his disciple, so he didn’t break any rules.”
“But he can’t interfere with the affairs of mortals without permission. He’ll be restricted and punished by the Heavenly Dao.”
Everyone present had basically read the immortal cultivation story book, so they knew what the Heavenly Dao was.
Everyone was a little disappointed, but it made sense. “Can’t the old immortal interfere in anything? Can he help us predict if we can win?”
“The war between the two countries is a major matter between us mortals. He can’t interfere,” Shi Qingluo replied.
“My master can’t interfere with anything that happens in Daliang.”
“He said that the Emperor is a true dragon blessed by the gods and will naturally protect the people of Daliang. Therefore, the victory of the war between the two countries will definitely be on our side.”
“So, you guys just need to do your best to fight the war. Don’t worry about the outcome.”
This was also a kind of psychological hint that made the soldiers of Daliang believe that they would definitely win. This was what the old immortal had predicted.
The key was to use these people to tell the Emperor that the help her master could provide was limited and would not affect or threaten the Liang family’s empire.
Otherwise, if he could help defeat the Ge Kingdom army, wouldn’t he be able to help overthrow the Daliang royal family one day?
Shi Qingluo wanted to express one thing now. My master is on the emperor’s side and protects your orthodoxy, so you don’t have to be afraid.
While reassuring the emperor, she could also pat the dragon’s butt.
If the Emperor was happy, it would naturally be more beneficial to her and her little husband.
