Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

"Your Majesty, General Zhuo Lian of the Ninth Legion of the Yulong Army has asked for a meeting again, claiming that he has something important to discuss."

The butler said respectfully from a distance.

Chu Jiangliu's bitter face showed a hint of joy, and he immediately said: "A few months ago, General Zhuo Lian, on the orders of His Majesty Emperor Xiao, led an army of 100,000 to the border to resist Prince Qilin. Now he is back. It seems that there is a danger on the border. Alright, if he comes to me, something big must be going on."

"Please."

Chu Jiangliu shouted eagerly.

The fifth princess whispered: "Husband, I will take my leave now."

At this time, a figure appeared out of thin air outside the pavilion and said with a smile: "The fifth princess does not need to leave, and there is no need to hide what I have done here."

Chu Jiangliu waved the butler away, looked at Zhuo Lian, and said ecstatically: "Zhuo Lian, come here, come sit down and tell me about the things on the Beizhou border."

Hearing that there was a war, Chu Jiangliu seemed to be rejuvenated and full of energy.

"Sit?" Zhuo Lian looked at the pavilion that was broken into ruins, and there was no place to sit: "It seems that Prince Chu is still angry about His Majesty Emperor Xiao not allowing you to lead the army on the expedition?"

His Majesty Emperor Xiao's refusal to allow Chu Jiangliu to lead the troops was actually a play between His Majesty Emperor Xiao and Chu Jiangliu.

But only Chu Jiangliu and His Majesty Xiao Emperor can understand this scene.

On the one hand, Emperor Xiao seemed to obey the advice of the ministers in the court. He felt that Chu Jiangliu was self-reliant in supporting troops, so he did not allow Chu Jiangliu to lead the troops in the expedition. This made people both inside and outside the court feel that His Majesty Xiao Emperor and Chu Jiangliu were already at odds with each other. Harmony, let His Majesty Emperor Xiao and the Chu River flow one by one, one by one, and then one can be victorious in every battle.

On the other hand, Chu Jiangliu had guessed that His Majesty Emperor Xiao allowed him to stay in the imperial city in order to suppress the young people inside and outside the court.

Chu Jiang shook his head lingeringly: "Now that the whole country is in chaos, how can I sit in peace and contentment?"

Zhuo Lian smiled and said: "Indeed, Prince Chu is a high-ranking prince and a general with all the troops in Shenwu Kingdom. Nowadays, the territory of Shenwu Kingdom has been repeatedly provoked. If Prince Chu doesn't have any anger at all, I would feel it is inappropriate."

Chu Jiangliu smiled bitterly and said: "Now that His Majesty Emperor Xiao won't let me lead the troops on the expedition, I can only sit in the house and have a headache."

Zhuo Lian laughed loudly: "Prince Chu, you are really right to come today. I have brought a good medicine to Prince Chu. I guarantee that the medicine will cure Prince Chu's headache."

"Oh? Really?" Chu Jiangliu was overjoyed and hurriedly asked: "Brother Zhuo Lian, tell me quickly."

When the fifth princess saw Chu Jiangliu looking so happy, she covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Brother Zhuolian, please tell me quickly. Prince Chu can only get better from his headache when he hears the news about the war."

Zhuo Lian smiled, his face suddenly became serious, and he said to Chu Jiangliu: "Chu Jiangliu obeys the order and orders you to immediately mobilize the Chu family army and personally lead 200,000 Chu family army elites into the city. They must gather before tomorrow morning. Outside the imperial palace, another three hundred thousand Chu generals were sent to surround the imperial city and no monks could be let go."

"If anyone breaks out without permission, no matter where the official is, he will be killed first and then reported."

When Chu Jiangliu heard this, he immediately stood up with a heavy face: "Twenty thousand Chu army entered the city, and three hundred thousand Chu generals besieged the city. Zhuo Lian, who did you give the order? Is this an order from His Majesty Emperor Xiao? You But you know...if it hadn't been for His Majesty Xiao Emperor's order, this move would have trapped me in a place of eternal disaster!"

"If I mobilize the Chu family's army to besiege the city and personally lead the army into the city, people will definitely think that I want to force the palace to rebel."

"I, the Chu family, have been loyal to the Shenwu Kingdom for generations. I, the Chujiang Liuduan, will not do such an act of killing the king and destroying the master!"

The fifth princess was also frightened by Zhuo Lian's words, and her face turned pale.

Zhuo Lian smiled and said: "Prince Chu, since I am here to deliver the order, you can just mobilize your troops!"

"This order of mine was indeed not issued by His Majesty Emperor Xiao, but by another person!"

"Even His Majesty Emperor Xiao probably wouldn't dare to refute what this person said."

The tense faces of Chu Jiangliu and the fifth princess relaxed slightly, and their faces showed signs of joy one after another.

"Could it be..."

Chu Jiangliu asked Zhuo Lian ecstatically.

Zhuo Lian smiled and said: "Yes, he is exactly the person that Prince Chu has in mind."

"The person who gave the order is Lin Bai, the Consort of the Shenwu Kingdom and the Iron-Blooded Sword King."

"Prince Sword, you are back."

Chu Jiangliu looked excited: "Zhuo Lian, you're not here to trick me, are you?"

Zhuo Lian smiled and said: "Didn't Prince Chu see someone riding a dragon just now? The dragon that just appeared above the Lingnan Imperial City was the mount of Prince Sword."

"If Prince Chu doesn't believe it, you can send someone to investigate Prince Sword and the palace. If I guess correctly, Prince Sword is either on his way back to Prince Sword's Mansion or on his way to the palace at the moment."

"Oh, right."

"It seems that Prince Sword has already thought that you might not believe what I said, so he told me that if Prince Chu doesn't believe that Prince Sword is back, let me tell Prince Chu three words."

Chu Jiangliu asked: "Those three words?"

Zhuo Lian smiled and said: "Feng Yuefang!"

Upon hearing these three words, Chu Jiangliu was immediately sure that Lin Bai was back.

Immediately, Chu Jiangliu's face darkened, and he shouted coldly: "Come here!"

Immediately, ten soldiers jumped out of the palace, knelt in front of Chu Jiangliu, and respectfully shouted: "Please give me your orders!"

Chu Jiangliu said coldly: "Prince Chuanjian ordered General Chu to assemble the first, second, third, fourth and fifth armies immediately. The first and second armies will follow me into the emperor's army." City, the Third Army, the Fourth Army, and the Fifth Army are surrounding the Lingnan Imperial City. No monks can be allowed to leave. Any trespassers will be killed without mercy!"

"Obey!" After receiving the order, several soldiers immediately issued the order quickly.

The Chu family troops stationed outside the city quickly gathered.

When Zhuo Lian heard Chu Jiangliu's order, he immediately calmed down and asked curiously: "Prince Chu, I dare to ask, why does Prince Jian believe so much that as long as I say the three words Fengyuefang, Prince Chu will believe Zhuo What did you say?"

Chu Jiangliu's old face darkened, and he lowered his head in embarrassment. He glanced at the angry fifth princess next to him from the corner of his eye.

At this moment, the fifth princess secretly clenched her fists, her teeth were itching with hatred, and she stared at Chu Jiangliu, wishing to skin him and cramp him.

The fifth princess gritted her teeth and said to Zhuo Lian, "You want to know?"

Zhuo Lian was stunned. Seeing the angry fifth princess, he hesitated for a moment: "I...I..., Prince Chu, do I want to know? Or do I not want to know?"

Chu Jiangliu lowered his head, shook his head and smiled bitterly.

The fifth princess glared and shouted: "Back when Prince Chu had not yet inherited the hereditary throne, when Prince Jian was still the consort, Prince Jian defeated the enemy country and returned to the capital to celebrate, Prince Chu took Prince Jian to visit Qinglou, that place It’s called Fengyuefang.”

"Later, His Majesty Emperor Xiao learned about it and personally led an army of 100,000 people, which almost destroyed Fengyuefang."

"This incident caused an uproar in the imperial capital. Everyone in the Shenwu Kingdom knew that the eldest son of the Prince of Chu and the eldest princess's consort went to visit Qinglou."

"For this reason, Prince Chu's ass was spread open by the old prince."

Zhuo Lian was happy when he heard this and shouted excitedly: "Prince Chu, what about your romantic past with Prince Jian?"

"Haha, when Prince Sword and I were young men in bright clothes and angry horses, we once saw all the flowers in Chang'an in one day." Chu Jiangliu smiled freely and reminiscing, and even the old expression on his face regained some glory, as if he had returned to the past. It was the night when Lin Bai and I celebrated the victory of the Shenwu Nation in Lingdong.

The Chu Jiangliu that night was not Prince Chu, the divine general who is now famous in the ancient continent; Lin Bai that night did not bear so many heavy burdens.

But now, one of them has become a great general of the Shenwu Kingdom, and is a high-ranking prince. He is thinking about protecting his family and the country day and night, and guarding the territory; The Celestial Clan and the Giant God Clan are pursued by generations of hatred.
