He glanced at those seated in the chief’s tent, who looked delighted.
They won the battle against the invasion of the North Qi, and managed to defend Xinzhou. As they were waiting for the imperial order from the King, the enemies had done nothing more towards them, whilst they were getting prepared to reclaim Ning County. They were at the edge of heading off as soon as the order arrived.
They were very confident that Lady Chaoyan and Lord Huai would definitely reclaim Ning County with them.
General Huangpu was smiling, so was Wu Leng.
However, Gu Chaoyan and Zhou Huaijin had a very calm expression and no one could tell what they were thinking.
“Just read the imperial order.” Wu Leng told the soldier with the order. He was a very urgent person and he did not like to wait. He always said what he wanted to say, and did not want to hide anything. He could not wait to hear the order, so what was the man doing, looking so hesitant.
The soldier nodded.
He opened the bamboo roll and took out the golden imperial order.
He started to read accordingly, “The imperial order passes on the message from the King – Xinzhou has been defended, which is a lucky thing for the Saint Divine Land. All here will be awarded with bonuses. Also, Lord Huai has finished his mission, so he and Gu Chaoyan should return to the capital as soon as possible. That’s all.”
When the imperial order was read…
General Huangpu and Wu Leng as well as many other soldiers had their expressions change.
How could that be?
Lady Chaoyan and Lord Huai were summoned back to the capital?
Then what were they going to do with Ning County?
They had been waiting for so many days for the imperial order to arrive so that they could attack Ning County as soon as possible.
What were they going to do with the order?
The messenger was confused too, but he still added. “General Huangpu and the other soldiers, you can wait for the imperial order instating the new chief later.”
Having said that, he passed on the imperial order to General Huangpu, who did not want to take it. It was such a stupid order! Lord Huai helped to defend the town and won two battles, and they won because of Lord Huai and Lady Chaoyan… now the King was summoning Lord Huai and Lady Chaoyan home? What should they do about Xinzhou, and what should they do about the soldiers?
General Huangpu was furious, but he did not dare to counter the King’s order, he just did not want to accept it.
The messenger said helplessly, “Please, General Huangpu, accept the order, we have to act according to the King. If you don’t take it, you will be branded a criminal, it’s not worth it, right?”
Then he held the imperial order back to General Huangpu.
Wu Leng could not stand it any more. He burst out and cursed. “God damn the imperial order!”
“…”
“What does the King mean? Is he trying to give Xinzhou back to the enemies?”
“…”
“Horrible King!”
Wu Leng was so furious that even the messenger could not stop him. He kept cursing.
Gu Chaoyan got up and said with a serious look, “Deputy General Wu, calm down, keep your words concealed. This is the border under the charge of the King, so don’t bring yourself any harm because of your words, you need to lead the army to the battlefield, remember?”
