Chapter 629

Xiangyi Mansion, Linyao City.

The cold in the north has not spread here, but the weather in the morning and

evening is much cooler.

Xu Lao San was very busy, and Xu Lao Er led the troops to quell the civil

commotion in Qiping Mansion. He had to provide logistical materials and

arrange for someone to take over the people in Longxi Mansion who were sent to

Qiping Mansion by Father Xu to resettle.

Even if Xu Laosan had recruited capable staff from all counties under Xiangyi

Mansion to help, he still felt understaffed.

By this time, Xu Lao San understood what was meant by the above sentence, and

broke his leg when running below.

Seeing that the world had gone out early and returned late in the evening, the

old man Xu had lost weight at a thief's speed, which made Wang anxious.

Staring at the kitchen every day, trying to help Xu Lao San adjust.

However, Wang's method is purely to treat the symptoms rather than the root

cause.

Seeing how hard her younger son is, the old lady Xu was also worried.

But no matter how anxious Mrs. Xu and Wang are, no one can help Mrs. Xu, so

Mrs. Xu has to keep busy.

Fubao took all this in his eyes and wanted to use modern management wisdom to

help his third brother. But when she understood Xu Lao San's arrangements for

everything, she didn't have any tricks.

Regarding the handling of these matters, her third brother's arrangement, even

as a modern person, was somewhat admired. Because, Xu Lao San's arrangement

was more streamlined than Fu Bao had thought of.

Of course, if Xu Laosan is willing to delegate power to the people below, he

can actually relax.

But here is the problem.

The things Xu Lao San is responsible for can't go wrong in the slightest.

Not to mention the food and grass supply for Xu Lao Er, it was simply the

resettlement of the people of Longxi Mansion. A little carelessness could

trigger civil rebellion in Xiangyi Mansion. By then, the current good

situation of their old Xu family will fall short.

Therefore, no matter how hard and tired, Xu Laosan has to hold on.

"Third brother, I think, you still have a horn in this matter!"

After thinking about the current situation carefully, Fubao felt that it was

necessary for him to have a good chat with his third brother.

"What am I doing?"

Xu Lao San was a little at a loss, he didn't think he was wrong.

"Third brother, look, you are worried that the people below will not do things

well, which will affect the stability of our Xiangyi Mansion, right?"

"Yes, is there any problem with this?"

Xu Laosan thought about it carefully, but still didn't find anything wrong

with it.

"Third brother, you are worried about this now, can you let it go from now

on?"

"I think, you have to delegate power and you are not afraid of making

mistakes. After all, even if there is a problem, it will not fall apart at

once. There is always a way to remedy it!"

"Don't talk!"

Hearing Fubao’s words, Xu Laosan gave her a straight look, “Now, we can’t make

any mistakes. This is a matter related to the lives of our family. You are

still young and don’t understand this. Sinister!"

"Don't worry, your third brother, I'm in good health, and I can hold it!"

Xu Lao San stretched out his hand and touched Fubao's head, "You, it's so fun,

everything is ours!"

"..."

Fu Bao actually wanted to say that with me, you don't have to worry about

making a big mess, your sister, my luck, that God is watching.

However, this kind of metaphysics may not be effective if it is said, so let's

not say it!

As a traverser, Fu Bao has the soul and mind of an adult, but she doesn't feel

that she is so remarkable because of this. Of course, her good luck is an

exception.

The current situation in the world is really treacherous and difficult to

predict.

Beiman, Jieyundao, civil commotion, savages, Japanese people...

All kinds of messy things emerged at this time, causing the once calm Datang

to fall into various disputes in an instant.

If the Emperor Yongping in the court did not have the ability to set things

right, then the national title of Datang might soon become history.

Fubao didn't have much recognition with the Great Tang, especially after

learning about the things that the Emperor Taizu, the founder of the Great

Tang, had done, Fubao felt that this country had been crooked since the

beginning of the country.

Datang, in fact, is a story like this: The dragon slayer eventually became an

evil dragon.

Thinking about his sorrowful grandmother, Fu Bao felt that the imperial court

would have finished it sooner. It's just that the changes in this country and

society are indispensable for war. I don't know how many people will destroy

their families.

...

Outside the capital, at the foot of the West Mountain.

The endless camps can't see the end at a glance.

The five thousand whirlwind knights who had abandoned King Yan, and the

200,000 soldiers and horses of the Northwest Town Army gathered here.

Emperor Yongping was rushing towards this side under the guard of Yu Linwei.

Now that he has decided to cross the sea to conquer the Japanese kingdom and

fight the war of annihilation, the Emperor Yongping, as the emperor, must

definitely come here to boost the morale of the army that is about to

expedition.

The second prince Li Qi, who was chosen by Emperor Yongping to conquer the

Japanese nation, was the leader of the army who followed Yongping.

The prince ruled the army for the first time in the history of Datang.

However, the second prince was not so happy because he was selected by Emperor

Yongping. This battle against the Japanese nation will take a long time

regardless of victory or defeat.

If he loses, Li Qi will no longer have the slightest chance to stabilize the

dragon chair.

But even if he won, he would have lost his holy family long ago when he came

back, and it was also difficult to have a family meeting to win the dragon

chair.

This errand, for the second prince, was not a good errand from beginning to

end. But Emperor Yongping chose him, can he refuse?

If he refuses, he is completely useless.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

When the team was halfway towards the West Mountain, crossbow bolts like rain

suddenly shot from both sides of the road.

The crossbow bolts are like rain, covering Yu Linwei who escorted Yongping to

the Xishan barracks.

In just the blink of an eye, most of the eight thousand Habayashi fell down,

most of the rest were wounded, but the few uninjured Habayashi chose to escape

the moment the attack stopped.

However, the layout of this ambush is so detailed, how can people escape?

Arrows shot out from the crops on both sides of the road, taking away the

lives of Habayashi who had fled for their lives.

"Father, go!"

The second prince, Li Qi, was selected by Emperor Yongping to be the prince of

the commanding army. He really had some martial arts. When the crossbow bolt

struck, he immediately protected Yongping Emperor and avoided the rain-like

crossbow bolt.

The master servants accompanying Emperor Yongping died under the crossbow in

order to protect the second prince and Emperor Yongping.

When the crossbow arrow stopped, the second prince dragged Yongping to run

forward.

Under this burst of crossbow arrows, all the horses in the team fell.

The second prince rushed forward with Yongping Emperor, but quickly stopped.

In front of them, a group of people appeared. The leader was the Vice Admiral

of Cyclone Lengstab.

"General Leng, escort, escort!"

At the moment when he saw the cold thorn, Emperor Yongping shouted loudly.
