He slowly raised his head and looked at Shi Kefa."You will handle this matter personally. You must stabilize Zhu You Xin. What does he want?”
"Zhen, what should I give him!"
The royal study fell silent. Shi Kefa looked at Zhu Yousong in disbelief, but then immediately understood.
Now, the Emperor seemed to have no other way.
If Prince Heng wanted it, he would give it to him!
As long as he didn't send his troops south, he could give away half of the country.
Shi Kefa lowered his head slightly and cupped his hands.”
Then, he slowly left the royal study.
In the royal study, only when Shi Kefa's footsteps could no longer be heard did Emperor Zhu Yousong of Hongguang slam his fist on the table and then knock everything on the table to the ground.
"As long as the surname is Zhu, anyone can come!”
"King Heng, King Heng! I will kill you sooner or later!"
Hongguang Emperor Zhu Yousong stared at the ceiling with bloodshot eyes and roared in a low voice in the royal study.
Shi Kefa didn't waste any time and packed his bags before heading straight for Huai An with his subordinates.
As soon as he entered Huai An, Shi Kefa couldn't help but be shocked.
When King Heng's army crossed the border, they did not do anything to the commoners in Huai An. Instead, they began to clear out the bandits in the territory.
Shi Kefa couldn't believe that all of this was true.
As the saying goes, bandits pass like a comb, and soldiers pass like a comb, but there was still no incident of King Heng's soldiers looting in Huai 'an. This made Shi Kefa sigh in his heart.
King Heng's army is so strong that it can be counted among the few in the world. He has the demeanor of Yue Wu when he defeats!
Even though he was praising him in his heart, Shi Kefa still had doubts about this matter and didn't believe it completely.
At this moment, the curtain of the carriage was suddenly pulled open. The subordinate who was accompanying him looked at Shi Kefa anxiously and said,"Milord, we've encountered Prince Heng's soldiers!”
"What should we do?"
Shi Kefa leaned out and looked at the warrior who was striding over. A curious look appeared in his eyes, and he did not take the question to heart at all.
When his subordinate asked again, Shi Kefa said helplessly,"If they stop us, tell them that the imperial court has sent an envoy to meet King Heng.”
After saying that, Shi Kefa carefully observed the approaching warrior.
The company commander, who was walking beside the company, looked at the carriages and the Ming soldiers on both sides of the carriages. His expression immediately became serious.
He waved his hand abruptly and said in a deep voice," Everyone, pay attention. Enemies have been discovered in front. Battle formation!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers of a company immediately scattered and aimed their Lumi muskets at the Ming soldiers.
"The people at the front stop immediately, or we will immediately attack!”
The company commander stood at the front and looked at the Ming army.
Beside him, Instructor Wu Yueting whispered,""Let's take a look at their background first. I feel that this group of people is not simple.”
He Wen Wu, the captain with a generous face, nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
On the other side, the carriage slowly came to a stop. In order to observe the soldiers under Prince Heng, Shi Kefa got off the carriage without caring about his own life and stood at the front.
He looked at the commander and said loudly,"I am Shi Kefa, the Grand Scholar of the East Pavilion. I have come to see His Highness Prince Heng."”
Company commander He Wenwu scratched his head and turned his head to look at Instructor Wu Yueting.""Is this a high-ranking official?"
Instructor Wu Yueting silently looked at Shi Kefa, who was standing there, and nodded with a complicated expression. When he came to his senses, he realized that as a junior, he and Shi Kefa belonged to two different camps. He didn't know what to do for a moment.
How could he not know about the illustrious Shi Kefa?
However, should he treat her with courtesy or fight her with weapons?
"Don't be rash. I'll handle this.”
Instructor Wu Yueting clenched his fists tightly and grabbed He Wenwu. Then, he strode to Shi Kefa and said,""Mr. Shi Kefa, may I know what business you have with His Highness Prince Heng?”
Shi Kefa laughed and said,"Peace negotiations."
"Lead the way, I'll follow behind you.”
His gentle and jade-like temperament made it impossible for anyone to reject him.
Wu Yueting nodded slowly and waved at the company commander."Bring them to His Highness Prince Heng."
Company commander He Wen Wu nodded slightly, then waved his hand forward and said,""First Platoon, follow behind them and be on guard. If they make any strange movements, kill them immediately!”
After saying that, He Wen Wu turned around and led the rest of the troops to open up a path.
At this moment, Shi Kefa quickened his pace and gradually approached the company commander He Wenwu. He smiled and said,"Are you the troops that His Highness Prince Heng led to defeat the four towns of Jiangbei?”
"Your fame has spread throughout the world!”
Company commander He Wen Wu scratched his head. The burly man was actually a little shy at this moment.
However, Instructor Lian, Wu Yueting, said,""You flatter me, we won under the command of Prince Heng.”
Shi Kefa glanced at Wu Yueting and remained silent. He completely ignored Wu Yueting.
Damn brat, don't come and interfere with this old man's matters!
Seeing this, Wu Yueting smiled bitterly and did not speak again.
Along the way, Shi Kefa took the initiative to talk to He Wenwu. No matter how trivial the matter was, he asked about everything.
For example, whether he had eaten enough every day, how many years he had been in the army, whether he had read, whether he had parents, wife, and children at home, and so on.
Only when they were about to enter Huai An City did Shi Kefa reveal his intentions.
He looked at He Wen Wu's Lu Mi Gun and asked curiously,""Kid He, can you let me see this handgun?”
He Wenwu, who had answered almost every question along the way, stopped when he heard that Shi Kefa wanted to see the Lumi Gun in his hand. He looked at Shi Kefa seriously and said,"What do you want to do?"
"I think you're not here to negotiate, but to investigate us!”
Looking at the warrior who had changed his face in an instant, Shi Kefa was a little shocked. He was fine just now, but when it came to weapons, it was as if he had changed into a different person.
Instructor Lian, who had been following behind the two of them, laughed when he saw this scene. He walked into the city gate unhurriedly and said faintly,"If the person is alive, the gun will be alive. If the person dies, the gun will die. This is our iron law.”
"Shi Gong, it's not that easy to see our weapons.”
Wu Yueting laughed and walked in front.
Shi Kefa, who understood, wasn't angry. Instead, he was a little shocked.
Although he had only asked about some trivial matters along the way, every single one of them pointed to the nature of King Heng's army.
He had thought that everything would go smoothly and that he would be able to study the weapons used by King Heng's army. He did not expect to stumble on this.
Looking at the traces left by the war on the city wall, Shi Kefa tried his best to straighten his body, raise his head, and walk into the city.
