False Eunuch: With Many Children, I'm as Happy as a Fish in Water

What surprised Lin Chen even more.

In the queue of military attachés and generals, there were more than ten figures that had not been seen before.

Jia She, a first-class general with a first-class official position, and Jia Zhen, a powerful general with a third-class hereditary rank.

Lin Chen looked at these two people with surprise in his eyes.

Despite the fact that these two people's military attache ranks are quite impressive, they are also officials in the court, but they are a type of people who can be ignored.

In other words.

These martial arts disciples with hereditary titles are just vases placed in the court and have no real power in their hands.

Lin Chen couldn't help but become suspicious as to what was going on, so that people like Jia She and Jia Zhen, who were "unscrupulous", were asked to come here to discuss matters.

Lin Chen, who had these thoughts flashing through his mind, did not say anything. He just stood calmly in the queue of military commanders.

As a fourth-rank general, his rank is not outstanding among these military attachés and generals.

but.

As a powerful general with an army of 50,000, his status is much higher than that of these young martial arts disciples.

really.

After seeing Lin Chen's iconic bronze ghost face, these fearful martial arts disciples seemed to have found a backbone.

"My virtuous nephew Chen Jia, I'm here to talk to you!"

Jia She quickly greeted Lin Chen as if he had seen a savior.

"Um?"

A big question mark expression appeared on Lin Chen's face.

Looking at the expressions of the martial arts disciples gathered around Jia She, they all let out a long sigh of relief.

anyway.

Is he familiar with these guys?

I have never spoken to the Jia family or other Wuxun families.

The tone of these people sounded as if Lin Chen was among their peers.

Lin Chen didn't know why, but his heart moved slightly.

He walked up to this group of wealthy people and bowed his hands slightly in greeting.

"I've met Marquis Jia En, General Wei Lie."

"Hey! Why is Nephew Lin so polite?"

Although Jia Zhen said that she did not need to be addressed with such honorifics, she could not help but show a clear look of pride on her face.

"Indeed, we and other disciples of Wu Xun can be regarded as brothers and sisters. In the past, I didn't know where my nephew served, and we missed the opportunity to have a close relationship."

Jia She's words made Lin Chen's eyes narrow slightly.

He finally understood why people like Jia She were so eager for him.

Good guy.

Do you dare to regard him as a descendant of some declining martial arts?

wrong.

Lin Chen felt that it was not just that simple, but there was something else going on.

Lin Chen, who was guessing in his mind, had to deal with Jia She and others' pretending to be close to each other.

soon.

After several eunuchs walked out slowly, the whispers in the palace disappeared and became quiet.

Li Zhao arrived.

Lin Chen glanced at Li Zhao's face imperceptibly.

But the young emperor could not hide the anger in his eyes.

At this time, Lin Chen roughly guessed why the other party wanted to summon the ministers to discuss the matter.

"My lords, please take a look at this urgent military situation!"

Li Zhao suppressed the anger in his heart and waved his hand to the chamberlain beside him to pass on a memorial.

Lin Chen was not qualified to check it immediately.

He could only wait for the civil and military ministers in front to see the rear before it was his turn.

But don't want to.

When the ministers saw the memorial, they all exclaimed in surprise that it was a disgrace in front of the king.

Li Zhao didn't have time to care about this at this time, he just looked at everyone present with a cold face.

Lin Chen glanced at him inadvertently, with a questioning look in his eyes.

Lin Chen: Why is Your Majesty so angry?

Li Zhao:......

All right.

Seeing that Li Zhao was so angry that he ignored Lin Chen, he knew that the matter was not simple.

soon.

The memorial was passed to Lin Chen.

Take a look.

"hiss!"

Lin Chen quietly took a breath of air.

This memorial comes from Zhao Kuangyin.

The letter stated that the day before yesterday, the White Lotus Sect thieves launched a night attack and stormed the left part of the capital camp Dazhai.

Stationed on the left side of the main camp are the four guards of the Zuoying of the capital, about 40,000 people.

However.

Under the attack of the White Lotus Cult thieves, the four guards of Zuoying, 40,000 people, fled and the camp was opened.

So much so that the White Lotus Sect thieves took advantage of the darkness and drove in, causing heavy losses to the three guards of the middle camp and the five guards of the right camp!

Excluding the four guards of Zuoying who fled, there were 40,000 people.

The three guardsmen of the middle camp, 30,000 men, fled and more than half were killed or wounded.

Zhao Kuangyin's forthright five guards of the right camp were okay, and they stabilized their formation under the attack of the White Lotus Cult thieves.

Even so, the loss was over 10,000 yuan.

Finally, Zhao Kuangyin gathered his defeated troops and investigated them carefully.

The night attack resulted in more than 100,000 people in the Beijing camp, and the loss was only one-third!

As Wu Xun's base, Zuoyingzhongying was the worst.

The soldiers died and fled, and a large number of middle and high-level generals who were descendants of the Wuxun family fled the battle.

Zhao Kuangyin stated this point sternly in the memorial.

Both inside and outside the words imply that if General Wu Xun had not fled cowardly, there would never have been such a large number of casualties.

"But is that really the truth?"

After reading this memorial, Lin Chen had a thought in his mind.

I have to say, Zhao Kuangyin is really cruel.

This kind of tail-cutting method makes it impossible to find any fault.

It is a fact that General Wu Xun fled before the battle, and it is also a fact that the troops in the Beijing camp suffered heavy casualties.

At the end of this memorial, Zhao Kuangyin said that the Beijing camp was defeated and it would take time to boost morale.

In other words, the affairs of the White Lotus Sect cannot be settled quickly.

The imperial court's determined plan to pacify the White Lotus Sect's traitors may be in vain.

Lin Chen just realized it.

Why did Jia She and a group of martial arts disciples join the group to keep warm? They must have heard some rumors.

as expected.

After Li Zhao saw the memorial circulated to everyone present, he immediately opened fire on General Wu Xun.

"As martial arts disciples, do you still have the strength to fire a stone crossbow?!"

Jia She felt the emperor's gaze falling on him and couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Let alone a stone crossbow, the two Jia brothers, whose bodies were hollowed out by wine and sex, had never polished their bodies or practiced martial arts.

I'm afraid if you tell me this kind of thing, it will just make you laugh.

So it was no surprise... Jia She and others immediately bowed their heads and apologized.

As the person standing among them, Lin Chen's mouth twitched slightly under the mask.

certainly.

Facing the strange looks from the civil servants, Lin Chen remained unmoved.

Li Zhao couldn't help but laughed angrily when he saw these martial arts disciples like this.

She also knew that now was not the time to pursue this matter.

Li Zhao thought of something and planned to use these martial arts nobles for surgery after this incident.

As the saying goes, kill the chicken to scare the monkey.

Li Zhao calmed down and looked at He Shen and other members of the six departments.

Upon seeing this, a civil servant immediately jumped out to offer advice.

"Your Majesty, why don't you ask a section of the border army to go to Beijing to suppress the bandits?"

"According to Master Li, which frontier army should be transferred to Beijing?"

"That's ridiculous, this is the time when the barbarians are harvesting grass and valleys. Don't touch the frontier troops lightly!"

These civil servants who got into arguments and quarrels were very likely to take action if they disagreed.

Suddenly, He Shen stood up.

"Your Majesty, if that's the case, why don't you consider what Master Zhao saw that day and recruit the White Lotus Sect's thieves?"

After the words fell, the theory of recruiting peace appeared again.

"It's exactly what the Lord said."

"It's also a good idea to recruit people."
