Chapter 50, The army suddenly appears

The Sun family, the first merchant family in Western Chu, has business all over the world, and has made friends with all kinds of religions and two kinds of black and white. It can be said to be a giant.

Under the political struggle of several powerful officials in Western Chu, they were uprooted by dozens of officials from Dali Temple.

In the past, bells and cauldrons were singing, but now only empty houses and large white seals remain.

Aristocratic families, money spent like flowing water. If there is no account, how can they last forever?

The staff of Dali Temple turned the place upside down, searched out all the normal and hidden accounts, and placed them in the study.

Qi Annan swept it roughly and said, "That's it."

The two of them calculated the total amount of silver in their hidden accounts. In the past few years, they had already reached one million taels. Compared with the accounts of the Ministry of Revenue, apart from the management of all parties, hundreds of thousands of taels of silver disappeared.

"Here!" Huang Mengjue exclaimed and picked up an account book.

Qi Annan took it and said, "Is this account book the sale of weapons and horses or the Ministry of War license?"

Qi Annan paused and explained: "The border army used by the government craftsmen, and the Sun family was cast by institutions such as the attendants and guards and Dali Temple."

"The Ministry of War is also a human being, and everyone needs to make money." Qi Annan added.

Huang Mengjue frowned, "I think Uncle Jiang is not that kind of person, and even more so, the veteran general."

"That's hard to say." Qi Annan made a reasonable and well-founded analysis: "Of course the veteran general would not, after all, he had a large amount of rewards from His Majesty. But what about Mr. Jiang? There are many people in his family, and Jiang Wangsheng's expenses will not be less."

"Oh." Huang Mengjue was a little surprised.

"Besides, as superiors, they must properly give the people under their backs so that they can control them." Qi Annan.

Huang Mengjuexin said: "Then my father must have a problem, so I have to check it out again."

Qi Annan thought about it and said, "Armor, horses, food, weapons." He took another account book, "There are so many herbs to replenish qi and blood."

"Are they cultivating their own power?" Huang Mengjue was dumbfounded.

Qi Annan's expression was solemn, "Together, there will definitely be no fewer soldiers who can support them than one army."

The two looked at each other and left with these accounts.

They first released several carrier pigeons, sent a message to the capital, and informed the situation.

Let a few colleagues from Dali Temple disguise themselves and leave the city from various passes to confuse the public.

On the way, Qi Annan pondered, suppressed his heartbeat, and said, "Don't you want to know why I was ambushed by the Beili swordsman?"

Huang Mengjue nodded.

"That day, I'm going to find the fourth prince Yun Fuhong to compete in martial arts."

Huang Mengjue frowned and listened carefully.

"I met him because of martial arts. If it weren't for the royal family's rules, we might have been brothers from different surnames." Qi Annan looked around Tianwangcheng from afar. "That day, in order to tease him, I did not walk through the main gate and climbed directly to the courtyard wall."

"I didn't expect that I saw Yun Fuhong and Beili Ren's plan."

"Young Master Jiang, Your Majesty announces you to enter the palace." The young eunuch Xiaojiu personally visited Jiang Mansion with more than a dozen imperial guards.

Jiang Wangsheng was stunned for a moment, pointed outside, and was about to say something.

Xiao Jiujie said: "Mr. Jiang is currently working in the Ministry of War. Later, someone will inform Mr. Jiang."

"Don't worry, wait until I finish eating." Jiang Wangsheng pointed at the fruits and snacks on the table.

"Highlights of 100,000." Xiaojiu strengthened his tone.

Jiang Wangsheng seemed to have thought of something and showed a meaningful smile, "Then let's go."

The group arrived at the Imperial Study Room, and Xiaojiu brought Jiang Wangsheng into it.

"The grass-roots people pay homage to Your Majesty." Jiang Wangsheng stood up and bowed.

Emperor Chu said intimately: "I'm really not used to it."

"Do you know?" Emperor Chu pointed at a young man in silver armor beside him.

"Yang Silu?"

"Brother Jiang Wangsheng?"

Emperor Chu gave Jiang Wangsheng a gift, "Tear apart."

"yes."

After checking, Jiang Wangsheng said in surprise: "Bei Li's movements are so fast. Why do they attack from the east?"

"What do you think?" Emperor Chu asked.

Jiang Wangsheng said truthfully: "There is Lancang City in the east, and the city lord is a master of the Tianlist. Although he has always been neutral, it is impossible to let the Beili team pass through it."

"However, when I fought on the moon platform, I learned from Chen Xuan'an, the disciple of Frost Moon Sword Immortal, that the city lord of Lancang City had a connection with the sword Immortal."

Yang Silu was curious: "What's the origin?"

"Wu Qiling and Lancang City Lord met and met each other on the banks of the Lancang River. The Sword Immortal was moved, but because the Lancang City Lord was obsessed with the sword, the two separated them."

Jiang Wangsheng glanced at Emperor Chu, "Your Majesty should know, right?"

Emperor Chu did not answer him and said majesticly: "Yang Silu, Jiang Wangsheng, obey the order!"

"I'm here." Yang Silu knelt down.

"The grass is here." Jiang Wangsheng stood upright.

Yang Silu was shocked. He didn't know what he had done so that His Majesty could not kneel down when he saw the dragon.

"Now, I'll order you and the other two to lead an army of 10,000 to fight eastward to block Beili. Let's set off immediately!"

"Minist (patriotic) receives the order."

Jiang Wangsheng was about to put the brocade bag on the table, but Emperor Chu waved his hand, "You can hold this thing."

Jiang Wangsheng looked at Emperor Chu in shock.

Emperor Chu said: "Even if it is a reward."

"Yes." Jiang Wangsheng was surprised, what kind of reward is this?

Emperor Chu said intentionally or unintentionally: "As for the matter of Haoyue City, I have already handed it over to Dali Temple to handle it, so you don't have to worry about it."

"Yes, your Majesty."

Jiang Wangsheng is about to step out of the door, and Emperor Chu said: "Don't do things too well, leave some room for others, and also give yourself some room."

Jiang Wangsheng turned around and looked at Emperor Chu.

Emperor Chu had already turned his back and walked towards the bookshelf.

"Brother Jiang, let's go."

Yang Siluo was enthusiastic, "From now on, we will be comrades-in-arms."

"Yes. How are the Old General Yang today?"

"My father is strong and powerful. If he knew that I was going to the battlefield, he would probably be envious of him so much that he couldn't eat." Yang Silu said proudly.

"hehe."

Jiang Wangsheng touched the brocade bag and left the palace with Yang Siluo and cleaned up.

He was very surprised, why his father was completely different from the past and was always not at home, so he could only send someone to the Ministry of War to send a message saying that he was going to the battlefield.

Yang Silu was wearing light armor and holding a silver spear, with a cold light.

"The name of a gun is an iron horse and a river of ice." Yang Silu introduced Jiang Wangsheng.

"Iron Horse and Ice River?" Jiang Wangsheng stared at the tiger-like gun tip.

Huang Mengjue and Qi Annan suddenly stopped their horses.

"There are people in the forest!"

"I heard it too."

Heavy breathing sounds came one after another, the ground swayed gently, and with a long roar, the cavalry rushed from all directions like a tide.

A large number of infantrymen plundered formations, bows and crossbows, straight swords, short blades, and long swords in the rear.

Among the infantry, in addition to ordinary soldiers, there are also martial arts masters hidden in it.

When besieging the master, one soldier rushed to consume his true energy, while the other martial arts master took advantage of his unpreparedness to take action. Even if the ninth grade of the Heavenly List was in danger, he would die here.

Two ninth-rank horses approached.

Qi Annan frowned, "I have been recuperating for a while. Why did the ninth grade suddenly have so many? It's everywhere!"

"Using the means of the fourth prince, it is easy to train a few ninth grades behind his back." Huang Mengjue glanced and frowned. "There are still many people from the world whom he has won over."

"Based on my calculations, his men are about six thousand, which means"
