Seeing that the emperor and the imperial concubine were both angry, Xiao Shunzi naturally did not dare to take on this matter and hurried over to bring the person sent by Chen Zixiao to pick him up.

That was a deputy general next to Chen Zixiao, named Tian Xun.

When he saw that the emperor and the imperial concubine looked wrong, he hurriedly knelt on the side of the carriage and kowtowed, "My minister Tian Xun pays homage to the emperor and pays homage to the imperial concubine."

Zhu Feng didn't say nonsense and asked directly: "Chen Zixiao only asked you to pick him up? His airs are getting bigger and bigger."

Tian Xun's cold sweat came out.

He hurriedly said: "The emperor forgives the crime. Lord Chen does not intend to neglect it. Instead, before setting out to pick up the horse, he suddenly received news that cavalry from the Eastern Chaga tribe flew around Handongwei."

"Oh? Then he—"

"Mr. Chen personally led his troops to clear the enemy."

"so……"

After hearing this, Zhu Feng's expression eased a little. After thinking about it, he sneered and said, "Why, is he the one who leads the team in person when sending troops?"

Tian Xun said: "It's not normal. But this time, the emperor's imperial guard is almost at Handongwei. The emperor is worried that the appearance of the Dongchaga tribe will shock the emperor's guard at this time, so he attaches great importance to it, so he leads the team to fight in person and cannot come to pick up the guards. Please forgive me."

Zhu Feng frowned and sighed long.

He said: "He is a captain, and he should know what the captain should do. If he needs to lead the team like this, why should he raise troops?"

The cold sweat on Tian Xun's forehead fell down one by one, and he kept saying, "Yes, yes."

Nan Yan listened on the side and snorted coldly.

Zhu Feng ignored her first and said to Tian Xun: "Then, let's go, let's talk about anything you have arrived in Handongwei in advance."

"yes!"

Seeing that he said this, he would not pursue Chen Zixiao for the time being, Tian Xun breathed a sigh of relief, immediately got up from the ground and got back on the horse and walked to the front of the team, replacing Ah Shu's position in front of the team leader, and led the emperor's imperial guard to Handongwei.

Zhu Feng sat back into the carriage and said to Nan Yan: "What did you hum just now?"

Nan Yan said: "The emperor only knows how to say others."

Zhu Feng frowned, reached out and frowned her face, and said, "Go over there and give me some rules, and then do these sarcastic things in front of others. Let me see how I deal with you!"

Nan Yan pursed his mouth and sat aside and stopped talking.

And she also faintly touched the purpose of Zhu Feng's visit to Handongwei this time. He didn't take what he said just now. It can be seen that he still wants to send troops to Handongwei this time.

Even if he has the chance, he will definitely send troops himself.

Thinking of this, Nan Yan couldn't help but complain. You must know that when leaving the capital, the prince and the princess came to see him off with their prince in their arms. Zhu Chengxuan advised him earnestly, especially the entrusting concubine to look at the emperor, and never let him take risks at will, because Nan Yan was indeed guilty of the prince in the past, so he naturally had to rely on him. But now that he is like this, I am afraid that he will be sorry for the prince's entrusting again.

Thinking of this, she was one head and two big.

But no matter what, under the leadership of Tian Xun and others, the imperial guards quickly walked through a grassland with more than one person tall green grass, entered Handongwei, and when they arrived at the Duwei Mansion, Chen Zixiao was already kneeling at the door to pick up the carriage. As soon as the carriage stopped, he heard everyone shouting long live.

Zhu Feng jumped out of the carriage and saw Chen Zixiao kneeling at his feet.

Chen Zixiao kowtowed to him repeatedly: "The criminal Chen Zixiao came to apologize to the emperor, and the humble minister deserves to die!"

Zhu Feng looked at him kowtowing and the dust on the ground flew up, and smiled faintly and said, "You deserve to die for a crime, but how you die depends on how you fight today."

As he said that, he looked at Chen Zixiao again.

Obviously, he had just returned to Handongwei, and before he even had time to change his soft armor and put on the government office to pick him up, his clothes and boots were covered with mud.

If he was in the capital, even if he was not in the capital, he would be only known by the censors, which would be impeached to him to take off his military uniform.

Chen Zixiao lowered his head and said, "The Dongchaga team has a total of 200 people. Weichen led the team to fight, killing 53 people, capturing 18 people, and the rest escaped."

Zhu Feng raised his eyebrows slightly.

At this time, Nanyan also got off the carriage.

She glanced at Chen Zixiao and said softly: "What are the emperor asking? At least I'll wait until I enter the mansion to ask again. There are so many people here watching."

Zhu Feng thought for a while and said, "Come here, send the imperial concubine into the mansion."

Nan Yan was stunned for a moment and looked at him: "What is the emperor going to do?"

Chen Zixiao also turned his head in surprise and looked at him carefully. Zhu Feng looked down at Chen Zixiao and said, "Didn't you catch more than a dozen prisoners back? I want to go and see."

Chen Zixiao said: "Your Majesty will go now?"

Zhu Feng said: "Go now."

Chen Zixiao thought about it and immediately got up to lead the way. However, Nan Yan frowned slightly. Although it was not the first time they came to Handongwei, Zhu Feng was quite casual here before, but after he came, he didn't even enter the Duwei Mansion and just went to see the prisoners, which was too casual.

Moreover, the thing that Nan Yan was worried about on the road just now was getting more and more afraid that it would come true.

So he said softly: "Your Majesty..."

Zhu Feng patted her hand: "Okay, take your people in and rest first. You are also uncomfortable along the way. Go and rest for a while, and I will come back later and talk to you later."

Nan Yan could only sigh and whisper: "Then the prince, don't be too tired."

"I know."

So, Nan Yan brought Ruoshui and others into the mansion, and Chen Zixiao took Zhu Feng directly to the dungeon.

As he walked, Zhu Feng asked all the way, "I heard that I have captured some of their people before?"

Chen Zixiao said: "Yes."

"Have you asked something?"

"The emperor forgives his sins, no."

"You have been in contact with them for more than two years. You have arrested so many people and killed so many people, but you didn't ask anything?"

Chen Zixiao sighed and said, "The men in the Dongchaga tribe are particularly fierce. It is said that when the people there were born, they would throw them into the cold river water and soak them. Those who could survive were strong babies. They would support them in this way. When they were five or six years old, they would start practicing martial arts. They could ride horses and shoot arrows on horses less than ten years old, and they would hit them all over their lives. The captured prisoners could hardly pry their mouths open, and they would be killed directly."

Hearing this, Zhu Feng frowned slightly.

The people from the Eastern Chaga tribe are indeed difficult to deal with, but I didn’t expect that they grew up like this, so it’s no wonder that they have been able to cause trouble in the northwest for so many years.
