The next day, the two sat together for a meal.

I don’t know if it’s because the weather is too hot, or if there is an invisible stone pressing in my heart that makes people unable to stuff more things. Facing the various dishes on the table, both of them were lazy to stretch out their chopsticks, but Zhu Feng still urged softly: “Eat more, I see that you have lost a lot of weight recently.”

Nan Yan pinched the chopsticks in one hand and fiddled with the rice in the bowl, then looked up at him.

Just as he was about to say something, he heard footsteps outside. When he turned around, he saw that it was a small official from the Duwei Mansion outside. He said a few words to Xiao Shunzi. Xiao Shunzi waved his hand and sent him away.

Zhu Feng asked, "What's the matter?"

Xiao Shunzi originally planned to report after the emperor and the imperial concubine had finished their meal. Seeing that Zhu Feng had already asked, he immediately walked in carefully and said, "Your Majesty, it's the Chaolu."

"Oh? What's wrong with him?"

Since Agula died, Zhu Feng asked someone to take Chaolu out of the cell and place another residence, and naturally someone looked at him. Chaolu was so sick that he was almost dying, but as soon as the news of his son's death came, he gritted his teeth and persevered. After a period of recuperation, although he had not recovered, he was still much more energetic.

This spirit is shouting every day to take revenge.

The little official came just now and told Xiao Shunzi that Chao Lu had been yelling with his neck for another day. Although the people here were not polite to him, this person provided some detailed military deployment situation in Baihu City, and it was not easy to do anything to him, so he came over to ask for an order.

After hearing this, Nan Yan couldn't help frowning: "This man really treats us as a tool for his revenge?"

Zhu Feng didn't say anything, he just waved his hand and let Xiao Shunzi go down.

It seems that I don't plan to make any arrangements either.

Nan Yan thought for a while, bit his chopsticks and said to Zhu Feng: "But, is the emperor really doing nothing?"

Zhu Feng glanced at her and said, "Didn't I tell you very clearly before? Still asking?"

Nan Yan frowned and said, "But it's almost half a month. Even if we don't do anything, from Agula's situation, Arislan must know that the emperor has come to Handongwei, so he can't have no movement at all."

As soon as he finished speaking, as if to prove her words, Xiao Shunzi walked over from outside again and stood at the door and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Chen asks for a visit."

When Zhu Feng heard this, his face suddenly became dark.

It seemed like he felt something, but he just put down the bowls and chopsticks, picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth, signaling Xiao Shunzi to bring people in. After a while, Xiao Shunzi took Chen Zixiao and several deputy generals under him to the door.

Chen Zixiao knelt down and said, "Emperor."

Zhu Feng said: "What's the matter?"

Chen Zixiao said: "With a spy's return, there has been movement in Baihu City. Arislan gathered 30,000 troops and marched towards Handongwei."

When Nanyan heard this, she immediately took a deep breath.

For them, 30,000 people attacked, not too much or too little. If they really wanted to fight, it would be absolutely not enough to know that Zhu Feng was in Handongwei, 30,000 troops would be absolutely not enough.

It’s better to say it’s a fight, it’s like you’re going to come over and test it.

After so many years, Nan Yan followed Zhu Feng, he had experienced many wars, and he could see some tricks. As for Agula running back from Handongwei and dying at the hands of their own people, Arislan must have his own considerations. He had not moved for so many days since then, obviously looking at Zhu Feng's reaction.

On the Handongwei side, no soldiers and soldiers were dispatched again.

Then Arislan must have judged that although Zhu Feng was tempted, he was not willing to fight them immediately. In this case, if Arislan was not stupid, he would have judged that he wanted to find an opportunity to solve the crisis of Baihu City and the East Chaga tribe in one fell swoop.

However, Arislan may not be able to guess what this opportunity is.

It was precisely because he couldn't guess that he wanted to send troops now, because he had to break the temporary calm that Zhu Feng wanted first.

Zhu Feng thought quietly for a while and said, "You can just deal with this matter yourself."

“…?!”

“…?!”

Chen Zixiao and Nan Yan both showed a look of surprise on their faces.

Logically speaking, Chen Zixiao is the commander, so the matter here is naturally handled by him. However, after all, the emperor is in Handongwei now, so all things must be reported. What's more, everyone knows that Zhu Feng, the emperor, was born in a military service. Even if the people are not here, he still has to "point" to the war here, not to mention that he is already here now, and has transferred a lot of troops in the early stage. Anyone with discerning eyes knows that he is going to attack Baihu City.

But now, Baihu City has dispatched troops, but he asked Chen Zixiao to deal with it himself-

Chen Zixiao was also a calm person. This time he was a little nervous and said softly: "Your Majesty, don't you want to order the empress?"

Zhu Feng glanced at him and smiled faintly, "When I am not here, aren't you commanding the wars of all sizes? No, if I come here, you won't be able to fight."

Chen Zixiao immediately said: "Of course not."

Zhu Feng said: "Then you go."

"……yes."

Chen Zixiao saluted and stood up to leave. But just as he walked to the door, Zhu Feng hesitated for a moment and still called him: "How many people in Handongwei are left except for me who have transferred them?"

Chen Zixiao said: "Not 80,000."

When Zhu Feng heard this, he nodded gently. After a while, he said as if he was joking: "Save some hits."

Chen Zixiao's eyes flashed for a moment, and he immediately said, "I understand."

After saying that, he stepped down.

When he walked away, Nan Yan looked up at Zhu Feng and said impatiently: "Master!"

Zhu Feng was still picking up food into her bowl. When he heard her voice, he looked up at her and said, "What?"

Nan Yan said: "The emperor wants to fight?"

Zhu Feng smiled and said, "They rushed over with a 30,000 army. If I don't let someone fight, would I want Arislan to directly attack Handongwei?"

“…”

After hearing what he said, Nan Yan himself thought this question was too stupid.

But--

She frowned and said, "But the Emperor didn't say that if he couldn't win in one fell swoop, once the war with him was in a stalemate, it would be easy to give people an opportunity."

After Zhu Feng picked up the dishes for her, he picked up the dishes in his bowl and said in a deep voice: "I'm here, I can't stop it."

In other words, sending troops now is a helpless move.

Nan Yan thought to himself that he could not eat anything when he was pressed on a stone. After a long time of struggle, he whispered: "Your Majesty, I'll dare to ask."

"What?"
