1351 Arrangement
The King was a very narrow minded person who could not stand any conflicts against him. He was the King so they needed to be cautious.
Even if he did not take revenge at the moment, he would still do it in the future.
Just think about the Jiang Family… he held a grudge against them and did not take revenge until 20 years later. He was just filled with plans.
Wu Leng was a very straightforward person who could not hide any secrets. If something really happened in the future, he might be the first one to get set up.
She might not be able to keep Wu Leng safe, so what she could do was to remind him at this moment.
Having said this, Gu Chaoyan looked at the messenger who was reading the imperial order. “Thanks for your efforts.”
She could tell that the soldier was a good person too, otherwise he would not have tried to persuade General Huangpu to accept the order. He was going to conceal what happened in the tent today, but she was worried about the future.
“The imperial order is here, and I saw nothing else that happened here. I am leaving now.” The soldier left after saying this.
Wu Leng’s eyes and face were turning very red. He was very agitated. He was furious too. He was very furious!
He felt that the King was just a stupid man, but he could not say it out loud.
He had never felt the annoying power of the throne after so many years at the border.
The King never cared about the border, nor did he care about the civilians here. Had he ever realized that without them, the capital would not have been defended. If they failed to defend the border, he would not feel so assured in the future.
Wu Leng felt very annoyed.
“The King must have already arranged people to bring us back to the capital. Me and Chaoyan have to return. We have the array formation here at Xinzhou, so you don’t need to be worried. Those from North Qi should not be able to do anything about Xinzhou for the moment, but Chaoyan is not going to be there, and we are worried about accidents. So you need to stay very cautious.”
“…”
“We may have to postpone reclaiming Ning County, and you need to be very careful about what is happening.”
“…”
“The one that is taking over should be, I expect, the Crown Prince.” Having said this, Zhou Huaijin looked at Wu Leng. He was not worried about General Huangpu, because he was a very steady person, but Wu Leng was a very straightforward person so he wasn’t so good at talking with those from the capital. He stressed. “The Crown Prince is not like Chaoyan who sees through people and doesn’t care about what is on the surface. Therefore, you have to be very careful about the Crown Prince. Don’t talk randomly. Just follow General Huangpu’s order when you are about to do something.”
“…”
“That is all we can say to you, so take care. We will definitely meet again.” Zhou Huaijin sounded very calm, but he was very worried.
The Crown Prince would definitely give the soldiers at the border some time when he came again, but that had happened already, and Zhou Huaijin just did not want to say anything other than to tell them to do their own jobs well.
He and Gu Chaoyan were not leaving directly. Followed by the imperial order was a verbal message, telling them that the chief should not be away from the Xinzhou, so they needed to wait for the Crown Prince’s team to arrive before leaving.
Gu Chaoyan gave them quite a lot of messages in the following two days.
In the meanwhile…
Zhou Huailing and Gu Ruxue arrived at Xinzhou as well.
On the day they arrived…
