Chapter 781 Old Princess

At the east gate of Guning City, Zhang He's soldiers heard that the men and women who were intercepted by him were the princess of Wei and the other was the king of Gaya. They dared not neglect and Fei also reported to Zhang He like a person. On the other side, the more than 20 Gaya soldiers also threw their weapons to the ground under the command of Jin Lushan.

Zhang He had heard about this from the prisoners before, and he immediately passed through the battlefield in the city where he was still fighting. After seeing Princess Cao Qiong of Anyang, he jumped off his horse and bowed respectfully and said: "It's Zhang He, a former general of Wei State. Please ask Sister Wang to go back to Tsushima Island with the last general. The King of Wei is also there."

When Cao Qiong learned that the visitor was Cao Chong's army, he was no longer panicked as before. However, due to information isolation, she knew very little about Cao Chong's incident. At first, Cao Pi's public information to the royal family was Cao Cao, Cao Chong and others were killed by the Liang army in Nanyang. After a long time, he said that he had received new news, saying that only Cao Cao was killed in the siege of the Liang army, but under Guo Jia's intrigue, Cao Chong and others turned against Liang. As a result, Cao Pi designated Cao Chong and Guo Jia and others as rebellious ministers as Emperor Wei. There was no exact news about Cao Chong and others. Before that, Cao Qiong only heard that the Liang army had also begun to conquer the Three Hans, but he did not know that Cao Chong was also among them. Of course, she could not know that Cao Chong had his own system and carried troops.

So Cao Qiong asked Zhang He's words in a lot of questions and immediately asked: "King of Wei? Didn't Brother Chong rebel with Guo Jia and you and others and surrender to Liang? In addition, why did you call someone the sister Wang, instead of someone the Princess Anyang?"

Zhang He had no choice but to start with Cao Cao's war in Nanyang, and to the present, telling Cao Qiong everything about the causes and consequences. By the time he finished speaking, about an hour had passed.

At this time, the fighting sounds in the whole city had dissipated and became quiet. This was not because Zhang He's army captured all the enemy troops in the city, but because Zhang He's soldiers escorted Jin Lushan's trusted ministers and guards to convey Jin Lushan's order of surrender. The Gaya soldiers were on the verge of collapse, and when they heard this news, they naturally put down their weapons and surrendered to Zhang He's army.

After hearing what Zhang He said, Cao Qiong said calmly: "So that's it. But now you think that it's the princess or sister-in-law, you have already married the lord of the Gaya Kingdom. As the saying goes, marrying chickens and following dogs. I don't want to care about the affairs between the two brothers. In the future, our Gaya Kingdom will no longer pay attention to the disputes and wars between them. I don't want to see my younger brother, so you just lead the troops back to save the trip."

Although Jin Lushan was not fluent in Chinese, he could understand Chinese, especially Cao Qiong's accent. He immediately echoed in simple and stiff Korean: "That's right, I will never interfere in Wei's internal affairs again!"

Zhang He smiled silently and said to Cao Qiong: "Sister Wang, and King Gaya! Why don't you understand what I said just now? Now the King of Wei is not the King of Wei in the past, and the Kingdom of Wei is not the King of Wei in the past. The current Wei State is a vassal state under the rule of Daliang, and its territory is in Yingzhou. The King of Wei was enthroned by the Emperor of Daliang. So this is not an internal affairs of Wei, but a matter of the Daliang court. These three Han places have been placed under the jurisdiction of Dongqingzhou by the Liang army. Therefore, your Kingdom of Gaya cannot exist on the Haidong Peninsula."

Cao Qiong frowned and said, "But Brother Chong is still under the banner of Wei. He still has his own military system. Why do you listen to Liang so much? Otherwise, I will go to Tsushima Island with you and tell me personally. I believe he will agree with me. You will leave King Gaya here and still be in charge of Gaya's government affairs. Gaya no longer becomes enemies with you. To be honest, since I left Yecheng, I was wandering for half a year before I settled down in this Gaya. Although this Gaya's foreign country has been settled down in life and has the courtesy of the princes. I really don't want to go and suffer from wandering."

When Zhang He heard this, his face turned ugly and bowed, "Sister Wang, don't tell me to make things difficult for me." Cao Qiong's fat and tedious face appeared. When the princess was about to make a fuss, Zhang He's orders came to report: "Report to General, a large number of soldiers were found in the north of the city!"

Zhang He was shocked and asked at the trembling Jin Lushan: "Do you still have soldiers nearby?"

Jin Lushan quickly shook his hand to express his denial. Zhang He asked again: "That is the soldiers from other countries of Gaya to rescue him." This time, a minister of Jin Lushan replied: "It is impossible. Although the Bagaya city state has now become one country, it has been nominal since the death of the ancestor. Not to mention that they will come to help on their own initiative, they may not necessarily come even if they ask for reinforcements from them."

Just as Zhang He was confused, more military information came. Another commander ran to Zhang He to report: "Report! The army that came was Zhang Liao's troops of the Liang army. They had pacified Mahan and Bianhan and began to advance south three days ago. Today they happened to come to capture Guning City, so they ran into us here. They had arrived outside the northern city gate."

Zhang He was overjoyed after hearing this, "It's great. It turns out that Zhang Liao is here. I don't know what to do with this Gaya Kingdom."

Then he turned around and winked at the soldiers and said, "You stay and protect Sister Wang and King Gaya." After that, he left Cao Qiong, Jin Lushan and the other two were guarded by the soldiers, and he strode towards the north city gate.

Before Zhang He could reach the north gate, he met Zhang Liao face to face on the street in the city. The two walked and chatted, first greeting for a moment, and later talked about the important matters, and told each other about their recent experiences. After talking about Cao Qiong, Zhang He frowned and said, "This so-called princess really doesn't know what to do with him. If she forcibly takes her and King Gaye away, I don't know how to explain to the King of Wei, but if I really keep them here, it is a violation of the Daliang law and the will of the emperor. I will never dare to do it."

Zhang Liao smiled and said, "Brother Junyi, don't worry, this matter is left to someone to handle. The princess is not afraid of you, but she will definitely be afraid of Liang's army." He paused and told Zhang He again, "When you meet them later, you will pretend not to be so familiar with me, but should do it seriously."

After a while, they came to Cao Qiong and Jin Lushan again. Zhang He stood behind Zhang Liao with his hands and respectfully. The Wei soldiers also retreated, and only Liang soldiers and Jin Lushan were left at the scene. Cao Qiong and Jin Lushan looked panic again on their faces.
