Chapter 313
"Hehehe...Okay, I promise you, I will escort the Meiyue Clan to Hengyang City and ensure that they are unharmed."

The Jiujianxian smiled happily and agreed.

"Thank you so much then!"

Lu Hao cupped his fists and saluted.

"Lu Hao, you want a sword immortal to protect us?"

Tantai Xiyao pulled his sleeve and asked in a low voice.

"Of course, hehe...and there are two ninth-grade masters."

Lu Hao responded with a cheerful smile.

Liu Rufeng and Situ Tianyin slowly fell from the sky at the same time and stood in front of Lu Hao.

"Meet the Prime Minister!"

The two beauties bowed slightly.

"Thank you for your hard work, two beauties. Come, let me introduce you..."

Lu Hao quickly introduced everyone to each other.

When Tantai Mingyue and his wife heard that there were two more ninth-grade masters, they were stunned.

A grandmaster-level swordsman, plus two ninth-grade masters, the Meiyue clan's appearance this time is really too big.

Of course, if they knew that Lu Hao had arranged an army of more than 2 people to send them off, they would definitely be ecstatic.

After everyone discussed it, Lu Hao went to join General Mei Chao one step ahead to receive the remaining defeated generals.

Secretly escorted by three masters, the Meiyue tribe left the dark forest from Duantian Cliff and headed south to Hengyang City.

As for the cost of food and clothing during the journey, Lu Hao will order the prefects from various places to fully cooperate.

……

With Lu Hao's current strength, it only took him a few hours to reach Duantian Cliff.

At this time, General Mei Chao, with more than 2 defeated soldiers, was as desolate as a group of beggars.

General Mei Chao, who was defeated by Liu Mu, led more than 2 people. After hiding in the dark forest, he lost some more and now it is estimated that there are still 2 people.

However, entering the dark forest avoided Liu Mu's attack and prevented the entire army from being destroyed.

Over the past few days, General Mei Chao has been exhausted and almost collapsed.

Fortunately, Yuan Chong and others brought back news about the Prime Minister, which immediately gave him another glimmer of hope.

Lu Hao, holding the "Emperor Sword", descended from the sky and landed slowly in front of General Mei Chao.

"The last general, Mei Chao, meets with the Prime Minister!"

General Mei Chao quickly knelt down and saluted.

"General Mei Chao, please rise!"

Lu Hao waved his hand.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, you will eventually be guilty!"

General Mei Chao did not dare to get up.

"Hmph! Do you still know that you are guilty? You ignored the laws of the empire, mobilized the army without authorization, and attacked the imperial army of King Beiyuan. Every one of them is enough to confiscate your home and exterminate your family..."

Lu Hao's voice was as cold as frost.

"The general is guilty and would rather die. However, the general of the empire dare not fail to carry out the order issued by the marshal of the empire!"

General Mei Chao moved out of Chen Lin, hoping that Lu Hao would be open-minded.

"Don't use Chen Lin to scare the truth. Even if it is Chen Lin's order, your attack on Liu Mu's army is still treason!"

Lu Hao said angrily.

"The general realizes his mistake and is willing to accept the death penalty. However, the subordinates of the general, please spare their lives, Prime Minister!"

General Mei Chao knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously to beg for mercy.

"General Mei Chao, you are really confused!"

Lu Hao was also heartbroken.

If according to the laws of the Great Yan Empire, General Mei Chao is indeed guilty of death, and the soldiers who follow him will also face the trial of the empire.

In fact, these are not the most important.

The most important thing is that the families and relatives of these soldiers will be directly implicated, and their homes may even be confiscated and exterminated. "Prime Minister, please spare my life!"

Yuan Chong and other soldiers also knelt down and begged for mercy.

"General Mei Chao, I know that you are Chen Lin's man, but the mistake this time was too big. However, I will give you a chance to redeem yourself and make meritorious service..."

Lu Hao expressed his thoughts.

In fact, he did not want so many soldiers to die because of General Mei Chao's mistake, so he escorted the Meiyue clan back to Hengyang City to standby.

After all, if you can escort the Meiyue clan, it will be a great achievement, and you can barely save the lives of these people.

"On behalf of all the generals, I would like to thank you, Prime Minister!"

General Mei Chao burst into tears and was so excited that he quickly kowtowed in thanks.

"Okay, the safety of the Meiyue clan will be left to you. As for the food and clothing expenses, I will inform the prefects along the way to cooperate fully."

After Lu Hao finished explaining, he rose into the sky and disappeared without a trace.

……

Lu Hao followed the trend south and came to the entrance of the backwater swamp, where he met Wu Qingyu.

The two of them got on the carriage and headed straight to the imperial capital.

In the carriage, Wu Qingyu began to report on the intelligence situation in the past few days.

"Prime Minister, you didn't expect that Chen Lin did not go south, but followed Liu Mu north, chasing Liu Mu and beating him fiercely, which made Liu Mu miserable!"

"Beiyuan King Liu Mu is not a fool. Not only did he not kill King Lanling, he reached an agreement with him to join forces to deal with Chen Lin who was heading north, and attacked Chen Lin's heavy cavalry."

"However, Chen Lin is worthy of being the God of the Imperial Army. He actually broke through the two men's pursuit and blocked a bloody path..."

"It is said that the Yu Lin Army suffered heavy losses in this battle, and Chen Lin was also seriously injured. It is estimated that he can only retreat to Hangu Pass."

Wu Qingyu came one by one.

"Chen Lin was seriously injured? He is a ninth-grade master?"

Lu Hao was not worried about him, but worried about Chen Yuhuan.

After all, Chen Yuhuan was pregnant with his child, and there was no news about her for so long, which made him a little worried.

"Master Prime Minister, even a ninth-level master can't stand up to the crowd tactics!"

Wu Qingyu said with a smile.

"Is there any news about the Queen?"

Lu Hao suddenly asked.

Wu Qingyu was slightly stunned, shook his head, and guessed: "The Queen should be in the Chen family's fiefdom now, right?"

"The Chen family's fiefdom? It should be very safe there."

Lu Hao recalled that fertile land and felt a lot more at ease.

"Master Prime Minister, you seem to care about the Queen very much, don't you?"

Wu Qingyu asked with a smile.

"I heard that she is pregnant with the emperor's flesh and blood. The truth should be paid special attention to."

Lu Hao said casually.

"Master Prime Minister, do you want to welcome the Queen back to the imperial capital?"

Wu Qingyu tried.

"Forget it, vassal kings from all over the country have started to rebel, the empire is in chaos, and the journey back to the imperial capital is long, so let her stay in the Chen family's fiefdom."

Lu Hao gave up the idea of ​​taking her back.

"Yes, now the eight vassal kings of the empire have united together to form several powerful forces, and the empire has not sent troops to annihilate them at all, which makes their arrogance even higher..."

Wu Qingyu began to report on the movements of the major vassal kings.

The rebels in the north, led by King Lanling, have reached an agreement with Liu Mu and will go south to the Central Plains at any time.

King Huainan and Prince Hao in the south merged with King Wei in the west and formed a powerful force with an army of fifty thousand, clamoring to enter the imperial capital.

King Yu in the east integrated the other three small vassal kings and formed an army of 3 people, but did not take any specific actions.

As for the other very small vassal kings, although there were several, they did not have many soldiers and horses, so they just clamored and clamored, and they did not pose much of a threat at all.
