It took less than half a day.
Zhao Hao arrived at Kaifeng Prefecture.
He found a deserted place to land, took off his golden mask, put away the wooden ox, and followed the crowd into the city.
The people's faces were filled with happy smiles. After more than ten years, they returned to the embrace of their homeland. Their feelings could not be expressed to outsiders.
The Yue Family Army and Han Family Army were stationed outside Kaifeng City.
There were thousands of soldiers in the city, divided into ten teams, patrolling around Kaifeng Prefecture.
He advanced and retreated in an orderly manner.
"As expected of Yue Fei's elite troops.”
Zhao Hao nodded slightly when he saw this. He walked toward the palace while casually waving his sword Qi.
He carved marks on the streets, walls, wood, and stones.
Only the Embroidered Uniform Guards could see what these marks meant.
It took Zhao Hao a lot of effort to study this thing that was comparable to Morse code.
Fortunately, the final result was pretty good.
With these means of communication, the Embroidered Uniform Guards became much more efficient.
Near the Imperial Palace.
Over a thousand Yue Clan Army soldiers were fully armed, standing outside the palace walls with their utmost loyalty.
The palace gates were tightly shut.
It seemed that Yue Fei, Han Shizhong, and the others had not entered.
The energy in Zhao Hao's body circulated, and he instantly passed through the palace walls and landed in the Northern Song Dynasty's imperial palace.
The soldiers nearby only felt a gust of wind.
The Northern Song Imperial Palace wasn't big, and there were only a few palaces.
It only took up a few miles of land.
The main hall of the Imperial Palace was also called the Hall of Great Celebration. It was the place where grand ceremonies were held. The main hall of the Imperial Palace of Lin An used this name.
To the south of the Hall of Great Celebration was the central government office. There was a gatehouse between the two.
To the north of Daqing Hall was Zichen Hall, where the court meeting on the first and fifteenth day of each month, the congratulatory ceremony on the completion of the suburban temple ceremony, and the meeting of envoys were held.
The Chuigong Hall on the west side of the Hall of Great Celebration was where the emperor usually attended to government affairs.
Wende Hall between Zichen and Chuigong was the place where the emperor stopped and rested before and after the court session.
The banquet halls in the palace were the Hall of Gathering Heroes and the Hall of Peace.
Other than that.
There were still a few harem palaces, as well as pavilions, platforms, buildings, pavilions, and other entertainment venues left.
Zhao Hao strolled around the palace.
They waited for the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards to arrive.
When Zhao Hao strolled to the imperial garden, four commanders of the Embroidered Uniform Guards wearing flying fish robes and embroidered spring sabers finally arrived in front of him.
"Subordinate greets master!"
The four commanders knelt in front of Zhao Hao and greeted him.
"Come and sit."
Zhao Hao waved his hand and gestured for them to sit down.
The facilities in the palace were complete. The puppet Qi regime had lingered here for several years and did not do much damage.
"Thank you, Master!"
The four commanders stood up and sat down in an orderly manner across from Zhao Hao.
"You guys came quite quickly."
"You didn't let the soldiers guarding the palace city find out, right?”
Zhao Hao smiled at the four commanders.
"Don't worry, Master."
"We saw the mark you left behind and quickly rushed over.”
"If we don't have our subordinates following us, ordinary soldiers won't be able to find us.”
The Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, Azure Dragon, shook his head slightly.
The other three commanders stood quietly at the side. Usually, Azure Dragon would reply to Zhao Hao on his behalf.
"You've been here for almost a month."
"How's the situation in Bianjing?" Zhao Hao asked lightly.”
"Young Master Yue…the Taibao led his army to defeat the Golden Wushu, so he placed the Yue family army outside the west gate of Bianjing City.”
"Grand Preceptor Han will lead the Han Family Army to camp outside the east gate of Bianjing City.”
"A few days ago, the West Garrison Marquis and the South Garrison Marquis also rushed here.”
"However, the soldiers under their command are disciplined and there has not been a single incident of bullying the people.”
"Yue Tai, Grand Preceptor Han, and the others live in the Ministry of War's compound."”
"Very good."
Zhao Hao was satisfied.
This group of generals did not cross the line at all, so they were still trustworthy.
"Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise!”
"I have a few things that I need you to do.”
"White Tiger, order your Jinyiwei to go to the Shao Xing Prefecture. There are rebel soldiers there. Bring back the head of the rebel leader.”
"Vermillion Bird, I order your Brocade Guard to head to the various prefectures. If any other rebel soldiers appear, immediately send someone to report.”
"Black Tortoise, order your Brocade Guard to go to the various military camps and monitor the generals. If anyone is found to be in cahoots with the Jin Kingdom, kill them without mercy!”
"The Azure Dragon guards Bianjing and strictly monitors the officials. If you find any traitors, you can kill them first and report later.”
"Did you hear that?" Zhao Hao looked at everyone.”
"This subordinate accepts the order!"
The four commanders bowed and nodded.
"Then the three of you will set off immediately."
Zhao Hao waved his hand, and the three commanders bowed and left quickly.
"Azure Dragon, order people to prepare a banquet.”
"Go to the Ministry of War and invite all the generals to the banquet.”
Zhao Hao turned to look at Azure Dragon and said with a faint smile,""I want to reward the entire army today."
"How many people does Your Majesty plan to invite?”
"There are seventy-nine third-grade generals and above. If they are fifth-grade and above, there are more than three hundred and sixty people inside and outside Bianjing.”
"The Brocade Guard doesn't have many people in Bianjing. I'm afraid it'll be difficult to handle so many generals at once.”
Cold sweat trickled down Azure Dragon's forehead. It was much harder to organize a banquet than eavesdropping and assassination.
"This matter is easy to resolve."
"Do you still remember the hotpot I took you to eat last time?”
"Prepare dozens of pots and some chicken, duck, fish, and meat.”
"Right!"
"Prepare as much wine as possible. I heard that Grand Protector Yue is strict with the army and doesn't allow them to drink normally.”
"Today, let them drink to their hearts 'content.”
Zhao Hao saw Azure Dragon's troubled expression and smiled as he gave him some advice.
"Understood!"
Azure Dragon was overjoyed when he heard this. He quickly turned around and left.
