……
Xu Maogong looked at Lin Chen's letter, and his face was filled with shame and anger. He wished he could find a place to hide. He had guessed the intentions of the reinforcements wrongly twice in a row. His job as a military advisor had come to an end.
Who was this person!
He was actually so strange. Was there such a way to use troops?
It's over. This time, His Majesty won't let me off easily.
Qin Qiong, who was standing at the side, saw that Xu Maogong's expression was extremely unsightly. He stepped forward and asked,""Advisor Jun, what is written in this letter?”
Xu Maogong smiled bitterly and did not say anything. He directly handed the letter to Qin Qiong.
Qin Qiong took the letter and read it. Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Gong also came over.
Father-in-law and brother-in-law:
As requested by the two ladies, I will lead the army to rescue them at midnight tonight. Father-in-law and brother-in-law can take advantage of the time when the enemy is exhausted to quietly leave the city from An Lin's direction using the scaling ladder. Someone will come to pick them up at that time.
I hope that my father-in-law and brother-in-law can keep their lives and reunite with the two madams as soon as possible.
Right, there is a wonderful plan in the brocade bag that can be opened in times of trouble. Father-in-law and brother-in-law should not open it, but just give it to the Tang Emperor.
The son-in-law and brother-in-law bowed to the emperor.
After reading this letter, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and Yuchi Gong were all confused. They looked at Li Er, and Qin Qiong took a step forward and asked in puzzlement,""Your Majesty, who is this letter for?”
"Father-in-law and brother-in-law? What kind of name was this? Is it one person or two?"
Li Er was also at a loss." I don't know either. However, this jade pendant does belong to Princess Ping Yang.”
When Cheng Yaojin heard this, he blurted out," Could it be that Princess Ping Yang has privately engaged in marriage?”
"Minister Cheng, don't talk nonsense!" Li Er's eyes narrowed." Princess Ping Yang is my sister and also the country's guardian. How dare you decide on a marriage so easily?" he said in a deep voice.”
"Furthermore, Princess Ping Yang is proud and aloof. Who in the world can enter her eyes?”
Cheng Yaojin saw that Li Er's expression was very ugly and hurriedly cupped his fists." I know my crime. I was speaking nonsense. Hehe, it must not be what I said. This title doesn't match either."”
Qin Qiong studied the letter and said,""Your Majesty, this letter should not be for you. The letter already states that this clever plan is for you.”
Li Er took the letter and looked at it again." Yes, Minister Qin's words make sense. This letter is indeed not for me. However, how do you explain this jade pendant?”
"How did Princess Ping Yang's personal belongings end up in the hands of the writer?”
Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, and Yuchi Gong all shook their heads. At this moment, Xu Maogong wanted to say something, but he remembered that he had guessed wrongly twice before, so he didn't dare to speak.
When Li Er saw Xu Maogong, he wanted to say something but hesitated. He wanted to ignore Xu Maogong, but he also wanted to know who wrote the letter.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Er finally spoke." Minister Xu, do you have anything to say?”
"I…dare not!" Xu Maogong lowered his head in shame.
"Forget it." Li Er waved his hand." I know that you have always been loyal. Moreover, you also guessed that the reinforcements would arrive tonight, so I won't blame you. Just say what you think."”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Xu Maogong excitedly cupped his fists in gratitude before standing up.
"Your Majesty, I guess that Princess Ping Yang must be familiar with the person who wrote the letter. That's why she gave the jade pendant to him and sent the letter to Your Majesty.”
"Also, I connected everything together and came to a bold conclusion.”
"Oh? What conclusion?" Li Er asked.
Xu Maogong replied,"Your Majesty, I guess Princess Ping Yang must have met the person who wrote the letter and asked him for help to save Your Majesty."”
"The letter also mentioned that the writer's father-in-law and brother-in-law are trapped in the city. This person must be eager to save people, which is why he hit it off with Princess Ping Yang.”
"Due to the limited number of soldiers this person had, he was unable to rescue His Majesty last night. That was why he used the tactic of distracting and distracting the soldiers. His goal was to make tonight's rescue plan smoother.”
"Of course, this is just my guess. If I'm wrong, please forgive me, Your Majesty.”
Xu Maogong had also learned his lesson. He did not dare to take on all the responsibilities and left himself some leeway.
Actually, it wasn't that Xu Maogong wasn't confident. The main thing was that the person who wrote the letter was too unreliable.
Hearing Xu Maogong's analysis, Li Er nodded repeatedly." Yes, you've analyzed it three times. This time, it's the most reliable one. If you put it this way, everything will go smoothly."”
"Alright, since that's the case, dear ministers, go and prepare according to what's written in the letter.”
"Yes, sir!" Qin Qiong and the others received the decree and went to make their preparations.
Li Er held the letter, the brocade bag, and the jade pendant in his hand. He was in a daze. For some reason, he felt that there was something else going on.
Cheng Yaojin's words lingered in his mind for a long time.
It shouldn't be. Royal Sister is so proud and aloof, how could she marry someone so casually?
Even if he is married, I am only a brother-in-law. Where did this father-in-law come from?
Li Er would never have dreamed that he was the only one who had a father-in-law and brother-in-law.
……
In Youzhou City, everyone was busy because of Lin Chen's letter. Tonight was the key to whether they could escape. Qin Qiong and the others didn't dare to be careless at all. They had to be foolproof.
Elsewhere, after delivering the letter, Lin Chen led the Eighteen Cloud Riders to the location where the horses were hidden. This location was behind a small hill five kilometers away from An Lin.
After Lin Chen mounted the Dark Stallion Horse, he had wanted to return to the village with the Eighteen Cavalry of Yanyun.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered that the plan was still lacking key props.
After pondering for a few seconds, Lin Chen turned to look at the Turkic camp at the back gate of Youzhou City, his eyes slowly narrowing.
"Eighteen Cloud Cavalry, I heard that when you were alive, you used eighteen people to slaughter ten thousand enemies.”
"I wonder if you dare to charge into the Turkic camp with me today?”Lin Chen smiled as he looked at the Eighteen Cloud Riders.
The Eighteen Cavalry of Clouds and Clouds were expressionless. They put on their equipment and shouted in a low voice,""We will obey the lord's orders!"
The Eighteen Cloud Riders were rewarded by the system, so they weren't real living people.
But even if they were alive, they would not have any fear.
"Haha! Well, it wasn't easy for him to come here, so he couldn't leave just like that.”
"Today, this chief wants to meet this group of Turkic dogs!”
"Eighteen Cloud Cavalry!" Lin Chen shook the Overlord Spear and a powerful aura erupted.
"Follow me and charge into the Turkic camp!"
