Chu Suiliang Arrives for the King of Wu
At this moment, in Youzhou City.
The horses braked and stopped in front of the governor.
The first person dismounted and said to the gatekeeper in a clear voice,
"The envoy from Chang 'an is under the emperor's orders. Quickly inform the provincial governor! Immediately! Immediately!"
Then, the few people who came with him also dismounted one after another.
One of the young men looked very delicate, but his body seemed a little weak.
Very soon, clear footsteps could be heard from the Prefectural Governor's residence.
Liu Wenli, the governor of Youzhou, had already walked out quickly with a serious expression. Behind him were his colleagues from Youzhou. They all looked at the envoy from Chang 'an and said,
He rode his horse at full speed all the way, making Chu Suiliang, a scholar, feel a little overwhelmed.
Her face was slightly red. She picked up her sleeve and wiped the sweat off her forehead. After a while, she panted and said,
He looked at Liu Wenli before officially saying,
"Lord Liu, His Majesty has ordered me, Chu Suiliang, to go to the Eastern Turks to discuss the matter of the King of Wu!
In addition, he ordered the troops stationed in Youzhou to search and rescue the King of Wu and act according to the situation.
Lord Liu will be the temporary governor of Youzhou.”
When Liu Wenli heard this, he had a serious expression.
"As for the search and rescue, General Luo Hanluo of the Youzhou garrison has already sent out soldiers to search within fifty miles of the city. Considering the tense relationship between the two countries, he hasn't sent out too many people, nor has he gone too deep.
Lord Chu has a heavy responsibility on this trip. It concerns the King of Wu and the two countries.
The King of Wu is not here, so I should do my duty.”
Chu Suiliang nodded in his heart. Lord Liu was indeed as good as ever.
Liu Wenli brought Chu Suiliang into the Provincial Governor's Mansion. The few of them had a meal and said as they ate,
"Special Envoy Chu has come all the way from Chang 'an.
You have a heavy responsibility, so you must take care of your body. Only then will you be able to deal with the matter of the King of Wu in the Eastern Turks.
You should rest for a while. I'll arrange for your escort to the Eastern Turks.”
Chu Suiliang hesitated for a moment.
"Then I will have to trouble Lord Liu. Please arrange it as soon as possible.”
Liu Wenli responded,
"Of course. We don't know if His Highness Wu Wang is still alive or dead, so we need you to confirm it as soon as possible.”
As he spoke, he led Chu Suiliang in and asked the servants to lead him to the guest room to rest.
Four hours later, the Provincial Governor was in the living room.
A general with an extraordinary bearing took his seat. He glanced at Chu Suiliang and Liu Wenli and said in a clear voice,
"In accordance with tradition, I have arranged for a hundred soldiers to escort Envoy Chu's entourage to the Eastern Turks.
Lord Chu, please forgive me. If there were too many people, it would cause a misunderstanding, so a hundred people wouldn't be too rude.”
Chu Suiliang nodded and felt that there was no problem. He cupped his hands at Arhat.
"I understand. Thank you, General Luo.”
After the bodyguards were arranged, they started eating a simple meal. Then, Liu Wenli and Luo Han sent Chu Suiliang off.
Chu Suiliang said goodbye to the two of them and glanced at the city guards, feeling a little puzzled.
However, the team had already set off, so there was no need to say anything else.
In Youzhou City, Liu Wenli's stern face finally eased up as he watched Chu Suiliang gradually go north.
"I hope Chu Suiliang can bring good news.”
The Arhat nodded.
"What is the situation with Wu Wang?”
At this moment, a fierce-looking man in a deputy general uniform came over and shook his head. He looked very certain.
"Pardon me for being blunt, but the King of Wu is doomed. That day, I saw with my own eyes that he was shot in the chest by an arrow that almost pierced through his front and back.
Therefore, it's impossible for him to still be alive!"
Liu Wenli glanced at the other party, his expression slightly cold.
"Deputy General Zhang, remember, if you haven't seen Wu Wang's corpse for a day, you can't be sure that he's in danger.”
Zhang Yang could feel the reproach in Liu Wenli's tone, and he frowned. However, since Liu Wenli was questioning him, he could not refute him.
The three of them looked at each other for a while and then dispersed.
Fifty miles north of Youzhou City.
Li Hai was holding a roasted lamb leg that was still warm in his hand. He ate it in large mouthfuls, and he was having a great time.
"We've been eating and drinking well with His Highness. Hehehe, these are all lambs that the Turkic barbarians have personally roasted for us. His Highness is truly a god!
Isn't His Highness amazing?"
Just now, they had launched a surprise attack on a thousand-strong Eastern Turkic army, and the battle had ended as quickly as it had begun. As a result, the roasted mutton had become their lunch.
Not only Li Hai, but the entire Qingyou Army of Youzhou was also talking about this delicious meal.
"Definitely!"
"It's really awesome!"
"It's so awesome to follow His Highness 'tent!”
"This is truly a relief, sweeping away our previous decline against the Turks!”
"Your Highness can always detect enemies that even scouts can't.”
The entire Qing You Army was already in awe of Li Ke.
"Commandant, Your Highness has really impressed us!”
Hua Qingmu smiled faintly.
"Are you still doubting His Highness 'qualifications to lead troops?”
Wang Zhe immediately shook his head like a rattle-drum.
"This subordinate was blind! Your Highness is both wise and brave, I, Wang Zhe, have never seen such a person in my life!”
Even Wang Zhe, who had complained a little before, had now become Li Ke's most loyal supporter.
Li Ke ignored the flattery of his subordinates and looked at the points,
Then, he paid attention to the situation around him.
After such a long journey,
Youzhou City would soon appear in front of him!
