Xihe Commandery-Lin County-Chen Family
At this moment, everyone was in the Chen family's hall. Old Master Chen had already asked someone to bring out the Chen family members from the secret passage!
Therefore, everyone from the Chen family was filled with joy after being reborn from a disaster. The families were even closer, especially the guards. The fearlessness of sacrificing themselves to save the Chen family made the four Chen brothers very touched.
Old Master Chen sat at the top and looked at everyone in the hall. His face was also filled with joy from being reborn after a disaster. He smiled and said,
"Boss, Second Brother, Third Brother, Fourth Brother, it's all thanks to you that we can sit here safe and sound!”
"We must celebrate!"
The boss immediately replied to Old Master Chen,
"This time, the most important thing is that the guards and the prefect arrived in time to survive this calamity!”
Hearing the boss mention guards, the joy on Old Master Chen's face slowly faded. Then he sighed and asked Chen Lixuan,
"Second, how many people did we lose this time?”
When everyone in the hall heard Old Master Chen's question, their joy was slowly replaced by mourning!
Chen Lixuan paused for a moment and said,
"Father, we originally had 164 people to stop the rebel army. Now, we have 26 people. We have lost a total of 164 people."
After hearing Chen Lixuan's report, Old Master Chen immediately said with relief,
"Alright, these are all good sons of my Chen family. You must settle their families well!”
Then, he looked at everyone's expressions and continued,
"Alright, it's enough to be sad. We have to remember them in our hearts, not on our faces!”
"You have to know that your lives were exchanged for their lives. So in the future, not only will you live for yourself, but you will also live for these people who used their lives to protect us!”
As Old Master Chen finished speaking, everyone's expressions began to slowly improve.
While everyone was talking, Du Yuan and Chen Shuiyao walked towards the Chen family's hall, chatting and laughing.
Old Master Chen stood up when he saw Du Yuan. When the others saw Old Master Chen stand up, they immediately followed suit!
After getting up, Old Master Chen walked out of the door and bowed not far from Du Yuan.
"Xihe Prefecture, Lin County, Chen Mingyuan, the head of the Chen family, greets the prefect.”
The people behind him immediately followed suit and bowed.
"Greetings, Lord Prefect!"
At this moment, Chen Shuiyao, who was holding Du Yuan's arm, saw this scene. She immediately pulled her hand away from Du Yuan's arm and hurriedly waved her hand.
"Grandfather, Father, Eldest Uncle, Third Uncle, Fourth Uncle, what are you doing? He's Zihao, there's no need to bow!”
When Old Master Chen heard Chen Shuiyao's words, he immediately said softly,"
"Shui Yao, Zihao is now the governor of Bing Province. This is the rule!”
Chen Shuiyao immediately looked at Du Yuan with a helpless expression.
Du Yuan saw Chen Shuiyao's gaze and immediately went up to help Old Master Chen, who was bowing, and said,"
"Old Chen, you're really embarrassing me with this bow."
Then, he said to the people behind Old Master Chen,
"Everyone, please don't be polite. In the future, when our own people are around, everyone should bow!”
Everyone looked at Old Master Chen hesitantly and said,
"This…"
Seeing this scene, Old Master Chen looked at the friendly expression on Du Yuan's face, then looked at Chen Shuiyao, and then said to everyone,
"Just do as Zihao says. We're all family in the future, so there's no need to be so formal!”
Then, he said to Du Yuan,
"Come, Zihao, sit inside!"
Du Yuan pulled Chen Shuiyao along and followed Grandfather Chen to the hall.
On the other side, Pan Yu 'an was currently discussing matters with the generals.
A soldier hurriedly ran in and reported while half-kneeling,"
"My lord! Someone had found traces of a Heavenly Dragon Army!”
When Pan Yu 'an heard this, he was shocked and muttered to himself,"" He's here so soon? It's only been a day!
Then, he asked the soldier who came to report,
"How many people does the Heavenly Dragon Army have?"
The pawn replied,"
"About a thousand people!"
Hearing that there were only 1,000 people, Pan Yu 'an immediately felt much more at ease. He thought to himself, 1,000 people. It's obvious that they're not here to attack me.'
Pan Yu 'an immediately asked,"
"The Heavenly Dragon Army is heading in that direction!”
The soldier replied,"The Heavenly Dragon Army is heading towards Lin County!"”
At this moment, Qin Xunnan muttered softly,"
"Lin County. Huyan Erzhu seems to be heading to Lin County."
Then, he said to Pan Yu 'an,
"My lord, the Dragon Slaying General is near Lin County. If he encounters them, he will definitely kill the Heavenly Dragon Army.”
When Pan Yu 'an heard this, his heart skipped a beat. He asked,"
"How many people did he bring with him?"
Qin Xunnan said,"
"My lord, don't worry. He has brought 3,000 troops. It's enough!”
When Pan Yu 'an heard that Huyan Erzhu had only brought 3,000 men, he immediately stood up and said anxiously,"
"3,000 troops are probably not enough to fill the gaps between the teeth of the Heavenly Dragon Army!”
Pan Yu 'an immediately ordered,"
"General Zhennan, quickly lead 10,000 troops to reinforce us. You must be fast, or my 3,000 soldiers will be finished. Also, you must behead the Heavenly Dragon Army's general and bring him back. When the time comes, it will boost our morale when we fight against the Heavenly Dragon Army!”
"Yes!" After receiving the order, the Zhennan General immediately turned around and strode out.
After seeing General Zhen 'an leave, Pan Yu' an's restless heart began to calm down. Then, he sighed and said to everyone,
"We must not be careless when dealing with the Heavenly Dragon Army. The soldiers of the Heavenly Dragon Army can basically fight against ten people at once.”
Then, as if he had thought of something, Pan Yu 'an continued,
"I estimate that in another four or five days, Du Yuan will be able to gather an army to attack us. We must pay more attention and send more border guards!”
At this moment, in the hall of the Chen family courtyard,
Du Yuan and Old Master Chen chatted for a long time. Both of them had led soldiers to war before, so they had a very congenial conversation.
Because Du Yuan was still young, although he had seen Chen Mingyuan, he had never spoken to him.
After chatting for a long time, Old Master Chen asked Du Yuan,
"How's your father recently?"
Du Yuan sighed and said,"
"I'm not happy with what Old Chen said. I didn't have the time to visit them after I came back. Instead, my father sent me a letter saying that everything at home is fine!”
When he heard Du Yuan say that Du Kang had sent a letter saying that his family was fine, Chen Mingyuan knew what was going on. He immediately said,
"Zihao, I've also led soldiers in battle. I understand your difficulties.”Du Yuan nodded and listened silently.
"Your father doesn't know how to report bad news, he only knows how to report good news. Previously, I also learned from the Wang family that your father's business isn't doing well now. He's probably already very busy. Every time I write to him, he says that everything is going very smoothly.”
