Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 834 The State of Zheng is destroyed

Zheng Yuanjie did not expect that the war would develop at a speed that completely exceeded his expectations.

Originally, when he mobilized troops from surrounding cities to defend Xunyang City, he also brought all the gold and silver treasures from those cities back to Xunyang City.

"Okay, let's go upstairs and have a look."

Lu Hao walked upstairs.

The second floor is full of rows of shelves, with a wide variety of rare treasures placed on them.

To be honest, Lu Hao was not very interested in these antiques, but if they could be exchanged for real money, that would be another matter.

What he needs now is war funds, not these antique gadgets.

Lu Hao walked towards the third floor again and found that the boxes on the third floor were full of gold, silver and jewelry, but there were only five big boxes.

However, judging from the indentations on the ground, there should be at least hundreds of boxes of gold and silver jewelry here. It seems that Zheng Yuanjie had someone hide them in advance.

"I thought Zheng Yuanjie had specially reserved war funds for me, but now it seems that he has hidden more good things."

Lu Hao smiled bitterly.

"Your Majesty, the last general led troops to attack from the east. It is said that Zheng Yuanjie sent people to search away the gold, silver and jewels in those cities. Now it seems that he has indeed hidden most of the treasures."

Cao Ming said angrily.

"Although he hid it, I think these treasures must be hidden in Xunyang City. After all, our army came so fast that he didn't have time to transport them away. Besides, he had to transport hundreds of boxes of gold, silver and jewelry. It’s not a simple thing.”

Lu Hao analyzed in detail.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. As long as the treasure is still in Xunyang City, the general will dig out the treasure even if he digs three feet into the ground."

Cao Ming is full of confidence and determination.

"Who asked you to dig for treasure? Your mission is to lead the army to attack and defeat the remaining Zheng territory for me!"

Lu Hao felt helpless that iron could not become steel.

"Want to fight? The general also likes it!"

Cao Ming was still very happy.

"You brat, forget it, I can't do anything to you, let's go, let's go to the Qinzheng Hall to discuss matters."

After Lu Hao finished speaking, he went directly downstairs.

These gold and silver jewelry may seem like a lot, but in Lu Hao's eyes, they are just a drop in the bucket.

Of course, if he wants to find these treasures, he only needs to release the power of his soul, and he can naturally explore the depths of the ground without digging three feet at all.

With a thought in Lu Hao's mind, he decisively released his soul power, searched the entire palace, and instantly discovered where the treasure was buried.

However, he is not in a hurry to dig it out now, but wants to wait for the matter to come to an end before dealing with these gold and silver jewelry.

As for the antique calligraphy and paintings he just saw, Lu Hao decided to find someone to sell them to the west, or take them back to Jintao Pavilion for auction.

……

Qinzheng Hall.

Lu Haogao was sitting on the dragon chair. Below him were Xuanyuan Lingyu, Liu Ruxu and other military generals, as well as Ling Zhongxian and Ling Fengwu who had just arrived.

"See the emperor!"

All the generals knelt on one knee and saluted with clasped fists.

Ling Zhongxian and Ling Fengwu knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Lu Hao.

"All Aiqings are exempt from gifts!"

Lu Hao waved his hand and signaled to get up.

"Generals, today we captured Xunyang City, the capital of Zheng State, and also killed the leader of Zheng State and the general who defended the city. We achieved a great victory. It can be said that from today on, Zheng State is destroyed!"

Lu Hao's voice echoed in the hall.

"The Emperor is mighty! The Empire is mighty!"

All the generals shouted loudly.

"Although we destroyed the State of Zheng, there is still a lot of territory in the State of Zheng that we have not completely conquered. In the following period, we divided our forces into several groups and swept across the entire State of Zheng, completely merging the territory of the State of Zheng into China. empire."

Lu Hao said loudly.

"Your Majesty, the general is willing to lead the army on an expedition!"

Cao Ming stood up first and asked for a fight.

"The general is also willing to lead the army on an expedition!"

General Wang Rui also stood up.

"Hehehe... You've all gone on an expedition, who will guard Xunyang City?"

Lu Hao laughed happily.

"Your Majesty, please let a few female generals stay and defend the city. Anyway, we are thick-skinned and fleshy, and we are not afraid of being tanned by the sun."

Cao Ming responded loudly. "Hahaha……"

Lu Hao was also amused by him and laughed happily.

"Cao Ming, what do you mean? Do you look down on women? Come on, let's compete and see who has the best marksmanship?"

General Zhou Yuan looks delicate, but he also has the aura of a woman who won't let a man down.

"I know your marksmanship is good, but I'm not afraid of you either. Just make gestures!"

Cao Ming didn't want to give in at all.

"What are you doing? The Emperor is still here? What are you planning?"

Xuanyuan Lingyu scolded in a cold voice.

"It's okay, it's okay. If they want to show off, I'll give them a question..."

Lu Hao rolled his eyes and looked at a big tree opposite the main hall.

"Your Majesty, please give me a question!"

The two of them actually didn't give in at all.

"Have you two seen the big tree opposite the main hall?"

Lu Hao raised his hand and pointed to the opposite side of the hall.

"Saw."

The two said in unison.

"Come here, go and draw two plate-sized circles on the trunk of the big tree, and draw a dot in the center."

Lu Hao explained loudly.

"I'll go, I'll go..."

Wang Rui left in a hurry.

Soon, two circles were drawn on the big tree, with a white dot in the center.

"You use pistols and each of you fires a shot. The one who hits the bullseye wins. If none of them hit the target, the one closest to the white dot wins!"

Lu Hao smiled and said the rules.

"it is good!"

Both men took out their pistols at the same time.

"Ladies first! General Zhou, you come first!"

Lu Hao said with a smile.

General Zhou Yuan stood there and slowly raised his pistol. Everyone watched with bated breath. The entire hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

Ling Zhongxian and Ling Fengwu had never seen such a scene before. Weren't they discussing political affairs just now?Why did the competition suddenly start?

boom!
General Zhou pulled the trigger.

The bullet pierced the sky and hit the center of the circle on the trunk of the big tree.

puff!

The bullet penetrated the tree trunk, leaving a small bullet hole.

Lu Hao looked at it and was secretly surprised.

Because although General Zhou didn't hit the bull's-eye, he at least hit the ninth ring.

"General Zhou's marksmanship is so amazing! He almost hit the bull's-eye!"

Wang Rui announced the target loudly in the distance.

"It's me!"

Cao Ming's fighting spirit was high and he immediately aimed at another bull's-eye.

Everyone watched with bated breath again, fearing that the sound of breathing would be too loud and affect General Cao's marksmanship.

boom!
The bullet also hit the bullseye of another circle.

"Reporting to your Majesty, General Cao also almost hit the bull's-eye. It can be said that the two men's marksmanship is equally good!"

General Wang Rui said loudly.

"Hahaha……"

Lu Haole burst out laughing, "The two generals' marksmanship is superb. I am very happy and will reward each of them with 50 taels of gold!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The two generals knelt on one knee at the same time and quickly thanked them.
