Chapter 2798
Ten miles away from the capital, the army that conquered Huaixi Wang Qing was stationed here.

The common people all went out of the city to greet them with joy, and they gave wine and meat on the field, cheering unceasingly, "Mr. Wu, you are mighty!"

"Duke Wu, mighty!"

"Duke Wu, mighty!"

"..."

Marshal camped, Wu Guogong Lin Chong looked around happily.

At the beginning, he killed Gao Yanei, and was recruited by Huizong to Huaixi to suppress the bandits as a crime.

Now that you're done, it's time for the scenery.

Lu Zhishen stood behind him, and said with the same joy as him, "Second brother, you have made such a great contribution this time, the emperor's second son should let you reinstate your post, right?"

"Brother, respect your Majesty!"

Lin Chong scowled at him, then said with a smile, "I don't ask for any fame, I just ask His Majesty to reward all brothers fairly. Everyone has fought with me for three months, and finally you can enjoy the grace of rain and dew with me."

"I hope so!"

Lu Zhishen was not optimistic about the emperor's second son, so he snorted and dragged him in for a drink.

At this time, the court's decree came down.

Some people from the palace brought a group of imperial troops here in a cart, and Lin Chong shouted like a male duck outside the camp, "Wu Guogong, Lin Chong, come out to receive the order!"

Lin Chong led all the soldiers and immediately came over and knelt on the ground.

The palace servants held the imperial decree and said, "Grand Lin Chong of the Wu Kingdom lived up to the king's expectations and made great achievements in destroying the Huaixi rebel Wang Qing. I hereby give you a thousand altars of royal wine and ten thousand catties of beef and mutton as a reward for the time being. Wait until the Ministry of War sorts it out. Battle report, I will reward those who have made merit one by one."

"Thank you Lord Ron!"

Lin Chong took the lead in bowing, cupped his hands, and received the imperial edict.

There was also a leader of the forbidden army who came to deliver the order.

He took the military talisman and passed a message to Lin Chong, "the Privy Council has an order, ordering Lin Chong and others to lead the army to retreat for fifty miles, not to disturb the people, not to make noise. Without the order, no one is allowed to take half a step without authorization. If anyone violates the order and enters the city , shoot to kill!"

"What do you mean?"

"It's hard to get to the door of the house and won't let us in?"

"My parents are cooking at home, waiting for us to go back and celebrate!"

"..."

The soldiers discussed one after another, showing their dissatisfaction.

The messenger swept across the crowd and shouted, "What? You want to disobey the military order?"

Lin Chong quickly took the lead and replied, "Envoy, don't worry, everyone has won the battle, and it's normal to want to go home and reunite. Since there are orders from above, I will obey them!"

"Count you acquainted!"

The envoy who came to deliver the message had a haughty face and did not take these people seriously.

He is Tong Guan's disciple, and now holds an important position in the Privy Council.

Naturally, he is proud and arrogant, how can he see these warriors.

Everyone was furious, and after the person who announced the decree left, they all complained to Lin Chong, "Marshal, what kind of bullshit military order is this. The emperor has rewarded us, and he didn't say that we will not be allowed to enter the city. Why should they want to?" stop us?"

"Yes, handsome, what kind of nonsense is this?"

"If we need to retreat fifty miles, why are we hindering them here?"

"..."

Lin Chong's face was deep, and he said with all the officers and men, "Military orders are like a mountain. As soldiers, we should obey as our bounden duty. If anyone dares to make irresponsible remarks, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Only then did the soldiers calm down, and they clasped their fists to accept orders.

After Lin Chong and Lu Zhishen returned to the military tent, they sat down with serious expressions.

Lu Zhishen said depressedly, "This must be the trick of the treacherous officials in the court. They are afraid that we will be too prosperous and pose a threat to them, so they deliberately make things difficult for us!"

Lin Chong drank his wine and said in a muffled voice, "Brother may be thinking too much."

Lu Zhishen cursed, "You still have a glimmer of hope for the imperial court. Look at your sister, the current queen, what is going on now? That foolish king has a new love, so he indulges in sex, and finds excuses to abolish the queen in a blink of an eye. .At the beginning because of this matter, Qi Guogong only said a few words of justice. What happened in the end? He may still be in prison now!"

Lin Chong slammed his hand on the table, stared at Lu Zhishen and shouted softly, "Enough, the court can blame me, but I absolutely can't blame the court. What brother said just now, can be arrested as a traitor."

Lu Zhishen stretched out his hands and said, "Okay! You catch me! Take credit in front of the dog emperor. If my life is changed to the dog emperor to look at you high, then I will be worth it."

"We are sworn brothers, what are you talking about?"

Lin Chong was speechless, and his face immediately became tense.

Lu Zhishen scolded him, "You are too naive, that's why you ended up like this. You trust the court, but the Sa family doesn't. I'm going to the city to find out the news. I'm a monk, and no one can control me!"

He left angrily, leaving Lin Chong alone.

Lin Chong had no choice but to stop him.

The army went up and down, obeyed the order, retreated fifty miles, and stationed at the foot of a barren mountain outside the capital.

We won the battle, but we haven't had time to be happy.

As a result, they were evacuated to this deserted place, and they couldn't even see a single commoner who came to welcome them.

In the court, Huizong is taking Li Shishi to study calligraphy and painting.

At this time, Wang Fu and Li Bangyan rushed over, kowtowed to Huizong, "Your Majesty, something is wrong!"

"What's so alarming about?"

Huizong was disturbed by them, and raised his head in displeasure.

Wang Fuzuo reported, "According to reliable sources, Song Gongming of Qizhou sent someone to contact Duke Wu. Duke Wu's [-] forbidden troops may have changed!"

"what?"

Huizong asked, "What evidence do you have?"

Wang Fu immediately submitted an official document with testimonies, testimonies, and records of who and when he saw Lin Chong.

"Lin Chong!"

Hui Zong slapped it on the table angrily.

Li Shishi hurriedly comforted, "Your Majesty calm down, maybe it's a misunderstanding!"

She exchanged glances with Li Bangyan and Wang Fu, and continued with Huizong, "Duke Wu's return from victory is a major event for the whole world to celebrate. I heard that my sister seems to have sent someone to find him, and I plan to celebrate with him! "

"You mean the empress dowager?"

Huizong was vigilant.

Li Shishi said, "That's right! My sister seems to be planning to ask the prince to reward Wu Guogong himself! With a minister of the Zhu Kingdom like Wu Guogong here, the prince can be sure that everything will be safe."

"The prince is also involved?"

Huizong's complexion instantly stretched.

Li Bangyan reported carefully, "I tell Your Majesty, there is something, I don't know if I should say it or not?"

"Let's talk!"

Huizong asked curiously.

Li Bangyan said, "I received a secret report saying that when Wu Guogong was suppressing the bandits in Huaixi, he often had correspondence with the abolished empress. Moreover, he seemed to want to ask His Majesty for mercy to re-register the abolished empress."

"Wu Guogong's hand is too long!"

Huizong was so angry that he smashed all the tea bowls in his hand on the table.

He immediately issued an order with Wang Fu and Li Bangyan, "You go to investigate this matter, and you must find out the correspondence between the crown prince and Wu Guogong, as well as the correspondence between Wu Guogong and Qi Guogong. To prevent chaos in the army, remember not to If you let the wind out, you must investigate secretly!"

"The minister leads the order!"

Wang Fu and Li Bangyan kowtowed excitedly and immediately withdrew.

"Your Majesty is tired, the concubine will take care of His Majesty and take a rest!"

The corner of Li Shishi's mouth curled into a smile, and he took Huizong's hand and entered the account of ecstasy with her.
