Chapter 138 Going South
Xu Xuanwu rebelled.
When Zheng Yi heard the news, his heart was as calm as a lake.
After all, ten of the thirteen states in the world are in rebellion. One more Xu Xuanwu is not much, and one less than him is not a lot.
It's still early for him to reach the capital.
The many princes, sects, and aristocratic families that stood in front of him along the way were enough for him to fight.
Many courtiers couldn't believe their ears and looked at each other.
You know, Xu Mujun is the Great General of Dayu, a highly respected minister.
Her sister Xu Qingluan was also His Majesty's favorite concubine and was named Xu Guifei.
He's out of his mind, is he rebelling now?
"Your Majesty!"
Zheng Xuanyue stood up and said: "Did Jin Yiwei make a mistake in checking? How could Xu Xuanwu rebel? He..."
"Your Majesty! You can never be wrong!"
Shen Xing, whose wounds had been roughly bandaged, gritted his teeth and said: "The roads from Yunzhou and Yuezhou to Nanyue County have been blocked, and the three major checkpoints have been renovated."
"The chief and high priest of the Baiyue tribe were imprisoned, the Heiyue tribe surrendered to Xu Xuanwu, and the Nanzhao Kingdom even recruited Xu Xuanwu as its consort. Nanyue County has become a country within a country!"
"I had a chance to escape by jumping off a cliff, but Yang Shaoyong unfortunately died for his country. When I left Nanyue County, Xu Xuanwu had already mobilized 300,000 troops and invaded Yunzhou and Yuezhou."
< br>
"Your Majesty! This is absolutely true..."
"Okay, I believe it."
Zheng Yi said softly: "Gentlemen, ten of the thirteen states in the world are in rebellion. We, Dayu, are facing a catastrophe that will never happen in a thousand years. We need all the important ministers and righteous men to bring order to the chaos and bring peace to the people."
"I obey the order!"
Many ministers shouted loudly, and Lu Xiangqing suddenly stood up and said: "Your Majesty, if Xu Xuanwu has rebelled, just in case, please recall Xu Mu's army and take back its military power!"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the ministers fell silent and looked at Zheng Yi quietly.
Xu Xuanwu's rebellion undoubtedly had the greatest impact on Xu Mujun and Xu Qingluan.
One is a general and the other is a noble concubine.
If all three have objections...
Zheng Yi said quietly: "I believe in the general!"
"Retreat!"
"Your Majesty~"
"Your Majesty!"
Ignoring the shouts of many ministers, Zheng Yi stood up and returned to Bai Yujing directly.
"Xu Mujun...how will you react?"
"Your Majesty."
Chen Liancang appeared quietly: "Do you need me to go to General Xu's tent to talk to you?"
"No need."
Zheng Yi said: "Your mission is to restart the excavation of Taizu's tomb."
"Because Xu Mujun is in Beijing, the matter has been stalled for half a year. It is time to restart."
"No!"
Not long after, Liu Chengen walked in quickly.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Xu wishes to see you."
Zheng Yi had already thought of this and said quietly: "Let her come in."
"No!"
Not long after, Xu Qingluan, who was still elegant and elegant, walked out quickly, his eyes red.
"Your Majesty!"
She knelt on the ground and said urgently: "Brother, he will not rebel. He was deceived by an adulterer. Your Majesty, please be clear!"
Zheng Yi shook his head and said: "What's the use of saying this now?"
"It is an indisputable fact that Xu Xuanwu rebelled. But my concubine, don't worry, what he did has nothing to do with you."
"You are the daughter of the Xu family, but you are also my concubine!"
"Your Majesty!"
Xu Qingluan said in a trembling voice: "Brother...really rebelled?"
"Yes."
Xu Qingluan felt as if he was struck by lightning, his body went limp and collapsed to the ground: "Why, why..."
"My father is a general, I am a noble concubine, and there is Xuan'er... Brother, he has no reason!"
"Who knows?"
Zheng Yi said: "Maybe I am blinded by power, maybe I am bewitched by an adulterer, or maybe it is for women. Beauty is a disaster."
"Women? Beauty is a disaster?"
Xu Qingluan's mind changed rapidly, and he quickly thought of something.
"Yuechan?!"
"Brother doesn't write many letters, but every time he writes, he mentions Yuechan..."
"Could it be that the eldest brother rebelled because of Yuechan?"
Zheng Yi sneered: "It might be because of Yuechan at the beginning, but as time goes by, ambitions will continue to expand. How can a mere woman withstand this world?"
"He has lived in Nanyue County for a long time, and he advanced to the innate level half a year ago. He is also valued by the leader of Nanzhao Kingdom and wants to take him as his consort."
"In Nanyue County, he is the Tu Emperor."
"Isn't it normal to want to take a step further and become a highly respected minister?"
"Your Majesty..."
"My beloved, please get up."
Zheng Yi walked down the platform and took Xu Qingluan into his arms.
"I said, Xu Xuanwu is Xu Xuanwu, the general is the general, you are you."
"The former Xu Xuanwu was your eldest brother and the son of the general."
"But now...it's just a rebellion!"
"Your Majesty..."
Xu Qingluan gritted his teeth and said: "I would like to lower myself to the position of concubine and no longer be a noble concubine!"
"Okay."
Zheng Yi nodded and said: "If you have doubts in your heart, I promise you that when this matter is settled, you will still be my Concubine Xu!"
"Your Majesty..."
He took Xu Qingluan's little hand, brought it to the dragon bed, and pressed it down.
It's night.
Xu Qingluan stayed in Bai Yujing, and a pure Yang energy was transferred into her body by Zheng Yi.
Ten months later, another prince was born!
It was the eighth day of August in the eighth year of Zhengyong.
Xu Xuanwu of Nanyue County rebelled.
He repaired three major checkpoints, expelled Nanyue County officials, and accepted the entry of Nanzhao Kingdom. He was regarded as a quick son-in-law by the leader of Nanzhao Kingdom, and he made a marriage contract with the princess of Nanzhao Kingdom, "Princess Lingyin".
Zhengyong eight years, August 15th.
Xu Xuanwu dispatched two armies, totaling more than 300,000 people, and invaded neighboring Yuezhou and Yunzhou, and fought with the princes of the two places.

It is the first day of September in the eighth year of Zhengyong.

Duan Fei Xu Qingluan is pregnant.
Zhengyong eight years, September 12th.
Xu Mujun, who had marched to the border of Binzhou, learned that Xu Xuanwu had rebelled.
"What did you say? Xuanwu rebelled?"
Listening to the order from the messenger, Xu Mujun almost didn't believe his ears.
There were aides around saying: "General! This person must be a spy from the Wu Kingdom, coming to disturb the morale of our army!"
"Come on, take this person down!"
Several pro-army soldiers who looked like wolves and tigers rushed in and were about to capture this man, but Xu Mujun shouted back.
He carefully observed the eyes of the surrounding staff and soldiers, and found that several people were dodging, and immediately asked: "How long have you been hiding this from me?"
"General, general, we have nothing to hide."
"Huh?"
"General! Although the young master rebelled, that is..."
"Shut up!"
Xu Mujun immediately shouted: "You and the others, go out and receive fifty lashes for yourself!"
"Yes!"
Several people from different backgrounds said respectfully and then exited the military tent.
"Qilin!"
"The end is here!"
Xu Qilin, the son of Xu Mujun's eldest brother, was good at both civil and military skills. Although he was inferior to Xu Xuanwu, he could still be regarded as the best among men.
Over the years, Xu Xuanwu has led the army alone for several years, but Xu Qilin has been led by Xu Mujun.
"Take the remaining troops to support Heishanguan and tell General Chen Wannian that if you are really no match for the Queen of Wu, you can abandon the two wild states and retreat to Heishanguan."
"The land in those two states was picked up for free, and there is no danger to defend it. Don't waste your troops and horses in vain."
"General!" Xu Qilin's face changed drastically and he said in surprise: "You want..."
"Xuanwu did something wrong. As a father, I naturally have to deal with it myself."
Xu Mujun said quietly: "Everyone, please stop trying to persuade me. I have my own plan."
He quickly walked out of the military tent and shouted: "Where is the Dragon Scale Army!"
"The humble position is here!"
The Dragon Scale Army is the elite of the Longxiang Army and the personal soldiers of Xu Mu's Army.
He followed Xu Mu's army in the north and south for decades, always fighting with one man against a hundred soldiers.
Among them, those with the weakest martial arts cultivation are all third-level warriors.
There are also three commanders whose martial arts cultivation has already reached the master level!
The five hundred Dragon Scale Army shouted loudly, causing countless staff, generals, and soldiers to look towards this place.
"Eating the emperor's salary, being loyal to the emperor, worrying about the emperor, what should you fear!!!"
Xu Mujun said in a deep voice, but his voice echoed throughout the military camp.
"I, the Xu family, received the emperor's salary, and I should have tied a grass ring to repay it."
"However, there is an unfaithful, unfilial, benevolent and unjust person in our Xu family. I should have personally punished him, and restored my Xu family's loyalty and goodwill, and returned Dayu to a bright and sunny day!"
"Gentlemen, please follow me to fight against the enemy!"
"I am willing to die for the general!"
"Okay!"
Xu Mujun got on his horse and said in a deep voice: "Long Lin listens to the order: those who have parents at home, come out!"
More than thirty dragon scale soldiers led their horses and walked out strangely.
"Those who have wives and children at home, come out!"
More than twenty Dragon Scale Army soldiers came out with their horses, and everyone present seemed to have thought of something.
"The only son in the family, come out!"
A dozen teenagers, who looked to be in their early twenties, walked out hesitantly.
"Those who have a wife but no heirs, get out of the queue!"
More than a dozen young men came out leading military horses.
"If both father and son are in the army, the son will go out!"
Seven or eight young men slowly walked out of the queue under the eager gaze of a few old men.
"If brothers are in the army together, the younger brother will go out!"
Several big men argued endlessly, and were kicked out by the people next to them. The remaining people laughed.
Xu Mujun looked around. There were 500 personal soldiers, but only more than 200 were left after such selection.
However, enough is enough.
"Those who come out of the queue stay at the barracks, and those who don't come out of the queue mount their horses and listen to my orders!"
Xu Mujun pointed his whip south, gritted his teeth and said: "Follow me to attack the rebels, Xu Xuanwu!!!"
"Major General?"
"What's going on?"
"The Major General conspired to rebel?"
"How is it possible!"
"Could the general have made a mistake?"
Faced with the whispered discussions from his pro-soldiers, Xu Mujun said: "Silence!"
"You have doubts in your heart, and so do I."
"But no matter what, it is a fact that my son Xu Xuanwu rebelled, and I am heartbroken."
"What we have to do now is to conquer the rebels and capture Xu Xuanwu alive!"
Xu Mujun said: "Your Majesty's order is to order my general to lead the army as far as Heishanguan. However, Xu Xuanwu rebelled, and the blame lies with me."
"I ordered General Xu Qilin to lead you and others to support Heishanguan. I will lead my own troops to conquer Xu Xuanwu and serve our country loyally!"
"You, would you like to follow me?"
"I am willing to die for the general!"
"Send troops!"
"Drive!"
Together with Xu Mu's army, 296 Dragon Scale Army soldiers fought their way to the southwest!
