This traveler only wants to choose the lowest difficulty

Chapter 43 After the Great Victory
In the early morning, Wang Dong cleaned up, called Liu Bao who was sleeping on a bed outside the house, and walked out of the door of the small courtyard.

This small courtyard was assigned to him by Li Jinglong, it is very quiet, and there are people waiting for him at ordinary times, but he is not allowed to go out. After Wang Dong moved in, except for Liu Bao to buy some antiques, he was treated like this most of the time. Sweet as sweet.

Wang Dong walked out of the room and started wandering around.Start from the unfinished back garden, first go to the kitchen, then to the place where the women do their laundry, then turn to the small vegetable garden of the mansion to see how the vegetables are growing, and finally turn back to the kitchen.

Along the way, many servants smiled at Wang Dong's appearance, and from time to time someone bowed and bowed to him to greet him.

Now the servants of Cao Guogong's palace are accustomed to the presence of these two Taoist priests who like to hang around in the palace. Many people know that Wang Dong was invited by Li Jinglong, and he also sent people to serve him. His status is naturally higher than theirs. A servant should be high-ranking, and Wang Dong is a kind-hearted person, so everyone likes to associate with him.

As soon as Wang Dong walked out of the back garden, he ran into Lao Wangtou, a gardener in Cao Guogong's mansion.

The old Wangtou was holding a flower hoe. He squatted on the ground and saw Wang Dong coming. He greeted him first, and then complained to him: "Daoist Wang, can you take care of those Taoist priests who used to be from your Shengyun Temple? Now the disturbance is getting more and more lawless, look at them yesterday, they came to you, they followed the road along the way and trampled all the flowers I planted."

Wang Dong was overjoyed, here he comes!

Sure enough, the moment Old Wangtou spoke, the system flashed the task options.If Wang Dong chooses to question the Taoist priests of Shengyun Temple who he sent to the Duke's Mansion for this matter, a level [-] task will be triggered, and if he directly refuses the old Wangtou, he will offend him, and thus get a level [-] task , the lowest option is He Si Mui.

Wang Dong looked at the task options, and then said: "There is such a thing, oops, they are too much, I will help you to ask them how to answer, but they are no longer members of Shengyun Guan. I don’t do it at Shengyun Temple anymore, I don’t dare to guarantee that it will have any effect, if people don’t listen, please forgive me, Master Wang.”

The old Wangtou was actually just complaining to Xiang Dong. Wang Dong’s kind attitude already made him feel quite comfortable. Hearing this, he hurriedly said: "Hey, how dare I blame Daoist Wang? Since Daoist is so helpful, no matter how successful he is, If not, I would like to thank the Taoist Master for speaking up for me."

【Vision +1】

Seeing the prompt to complete the minimum option flashed by the system, Wang Dong smiled and nodded to Liu Bao, and the two continued to wander around to the next location.

After wandering around for more than an hour, after harvesting the attribute bonuses of the seven lowest options, seeing the sun rising, everyone in Cao Guogong’s mansion became busy, and no one chatted with him anymore. Wang Dong knew that he could harvest in the morning. There are only so many minimum options, so I am satisfied, and I ask Liu Bao to go to the kitchen for dinner.After eating, take a rest, and in the evening, the servants of Cao Guogong's mansion will have a rest time, and he will take Liu Bao out for a walk, and it is estimated that he will receive another six or seven points of attribute bonus.

After Wang Dong came to Cao Guogong's mansion, he couldn't go out at all because of Li Jinglong's restrictions on him, but when he wandered around the mansion, he unexpectedly discovered that Cao Guogong's mansion was actually a small world full of contradictions.There are no less than 500 servants in Cao Guogong's family, and all kinds of conflicts are already very complicated. In addition, the Taoist priests he selected from Shengyun Temple added to the fire, and there are countless problems almost every day.After encountering several fights and noisy incidents in a row one morning, Wang Dong found that he had selected the five lowest option bonuses in the morning, and Wang Dong fell in love with Cao Guogong's mansion ever since.

There was no progress in the main task, so he just squatted in Cao Guogong's mansion to do some research, looking around like a retired old man every day, and he especially liked to go to places where there were quarrels and fights, eating melons every day, Actually brushed the minimum difficulty reward much more than outside.

Such a relaxed and happy day almost made Wang Dong a little bit sad.

When Wang Dong secretly looked at the rewards he got today and was happily walking towards the kitchen with Liu Bao, he saw Li Da, the chief steward of Cao Guogong's mansion in the distance, running over in a hurry.

What's the matter?Wang Dong thought to himself, Li Jinglong approached him a few days ago and asked him if there was any way to resolve the calculated fate, and the task option flashed into Wang Dong's mind at that time.

Decisively answering yes or no will trigger high-level tasks. Only by vaguely answering can you get the lowest option.

Wang Dong could only vaguely say that he had never tried it.In the next few days, Li Jinglong did not come to ask him about related matters.

Wang Dong understood after thinking about the time.

At that time, it was the beginning of April, and the three armies of He Fu, Ping'an, and Xu Zuhui and Zhu Di were fighting lively by the Sui River. He Fu and Ping'an camped along the coast and confronted the Yan army head-on. The Yan army fought very hard. On April 22, the Yan army sent troops across the river to attack the grain roads of He Fu and Ping An. As a result, they were rushed by the reinforcements of Wei Guogong Xu Huizu and made dumplings for the troops crossing the river. Defeated, Xu Huizu's army beheaded General Li Bin of the Yan Army.

This was the biggest defeat since the Yan army went south, which shocked the world.

Because the Yan army was blocked by the central army this time, this shows that He Fuping and Xu Huizu's troops are enough to fight against the main force of the Yan army, and the closer the Yan army is to the capital, the more it will face the imperial army, which is in a desperate situation. The resistance they faced would only become more tenacious, so when they saw the battle report of the Qimeishan battle, almost everyone thought that the Yan army's attack could only stop here.

Under such circumstances, the Yan army, who had been fighting south for nearly half a year, also began to have a fluttering heart, and many soldiers hoped to return north.

And the capital even started to celebrate the victory in advance. The news in the court was one step ahead of the decision of the Yan army. Rumors had already begun that the Yan army was defeated and Zhu Di led the troops back to the north.

Then the high officials of the DPRK made a decision and recalled Xu Hui's ancestral troops from the front line on the grounds that the capital must not have unscrupulous generals.

The reason behind it is of course not that there is no general like Xu Huizu in the capital, but that Zhu Yunwen really dare not trust Xu Huizu too much.

Xu Huizu is the son of Xu Da, the first hero of the founding of the country, and now Zhu Di's concubine, and later Queen Ren Xiaowen Xu, is Xu Da's eldest daughter.Therefore, Xu Huizu is Zhu Di's brother-in-law seriously, and the relationship between the two cannot be closer.

Moreover, the Xu family is not a princess with no sense of existence. When Li Jinglong fought in Beijing, the Xu family went to the city to supervise the battle, and organized the women in the city to throw stones and rubble to attack the Central Army. The relationship with Zhu Di was not good.

Now the Xu family is sitting in Beiping. It is obvious that as long as Zhu Di takes down the capital, the Xu family will be the queen, and Xu Huizu will be directly promoted to the uncle of the country.After the victory, transferring Xu Huizu back to the capital seems to be a perfectly normal decision.

The entire capital was in a relaxed environment after the big victory, so naturally no one would believe Wang Dong's calculations, and it was normal for no one to come to him.

Thinking of this, Wang Dong counted the days, only to realize that it has been several days since the news of Qi Meishan's victory reached the capital.

Looking at Li Da running over, Wang Dong instantly realized something.

After Qi Meishan's victory, the battle of Lingbi followed.

After Xu Huizu was transferred away, He Fu and Ping'an decided to stick to the defense line on the river bank, and tried their best to prevent the Yan army from going south.

However, He Fu's position was not conducive to defense, so he moved his battalion to Lingbi to garrison.

But at this moment, the Yan army suddenly launched an offensive and attacked Ping'an's grain transport army. He Fu led the troops to rescue Ping'an, but was also caught off guard by Zhu Gaoxu's ambush.

The two armies were surrounded again. On April 29, both He Fu and Ping'an's troops had run out of food. The two sides discussed and decided to break out of the siege together. The soldiers ran out when they heard the sound of three cannons.Then no one thought that they would be so small. The next day, the Yan army raided and fired three cannons under the fortifications. The two troops were not ready at all, but they thought that the three cannons were the order to break out, so they hurried Busily everyone took up arms and rushed to squeeze out from the gate of the camp.

No one believed what he said, and the chaotic He Fu and Ping'an departments were so defeated.

Next, the Yan army directly fought a battle to capture prisoners. On April 29, under Lingbi, the Yan army captured 37 generals of the southern army headed by Ping An, and more than 150 court officials in the southern army. In the end, the elites of the central government were wiped out in one sweep. So far, the outcome of the Jingnan campaign has been decided.

The Battle of Lingbi ended on the fifth day after the victory at Qimeishan. Now it was time for the news to reach the capital.
