The tyrant empress is my wife, I am invincible and have been hiding

Chapter 399 Li Lipu was furious and suffered a crushing defeat!

In the early morning, the morning sun rises slowly in the distance, the sky is full of red clouds, mottled clouds, the weather is sunny and the breeze is gentle. It can be said to be a beautiful scene.

Ye Feng was riding a warhorse with a warm face, and he was accompanied by Lady Xinling Yan Nishang and other women, as well as Wei Xian, Wang Changhao, Su Hong and others.

Ou Zhizi has been appointed as the Right Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works, and also followed Ye Feng to Jinling City.

Behind him were Li Shanxiao's black-armored cavalry, Su Qingzhi's white-robed army, Huang Tong's 20,000 archers, and Sun Zizai's 30,000 troops.

The army was on full alert, and excitement flashed in every soldier's eyes. They all knew that returning to Jinling City now would be a triumph, and it was the glory that belonged to them in their battles.

Everyone who joined the army wanted nothing more than to achieve merit, defend their country, and return home in glory. The vast majority of them were victors, and would surely be rewarded when they returned to Jinling City.

Not far in front of Ye Feng stood Cai Shao, who was wearing the official robes of the county magistrate; Zhao Long, who was wearing silver armor, holding a silver spear and riding a white horse; Zhao Mu, who was also wearing armor; and generals such as Luo Bin and Chen Fu. They all looked at Ye Feng with admiration and respect.

"Lord Cai, I will leave Pingxi County to you. Please don't let me down." Ye Feng looked at Cai Shao who was not far away. The other party was the favorite student of Zhang Ling, the president of Jinling Academy. Yu Shouren and him had known each other before. He believed in Yu Shouren's vision. Cai Shao was gentle and elegant, and although a little pedantic, he was good at distinguishing between public and private.

Pingxi County is an important frontier of the Song Dynasty, and it needs such officials to keep it stable. If you are determined to make progress, it is very likely that the Western Shu Dynasty will take advantage of you if you are not careful.

"Your Excellency, I will work hard to govern the country and make the development of Pingxi County the top priority, so as to ensure that the people of Pingxi County have enough food and clothing."

"We will try to pay enough taxes to the court by the time of next autumn harvest." Cai Shao bowed slightly to Ye Feng. When he received the news from Yu Shouren at Jinling Academy, he was actually very hesitant in his heart. He knew that being the governor of a frontier county like Pingxi County was not an easy job.

He had to deal with the harassment from the Western Shu Dynasty while stabilizing the people's livelihood and economy of the entire Pingxi County. If there was any mistake, it would inevitably lead to an overall collapse, and he would be the sinner then.

He personally went to ask the dean of Jinling Academy, his teacher Zhang Ling. The person he admired most in his life was his teacher. When Emperor Xuan of Song ascended the throne, he was appointed as the prime minister of the Song Dynasty and managed the entire Song Dynasty in an orderly and prosperous manner.

If Emperor Xuan of Song had not been so incompetent in the later period and had not listened to Li Linpu's slander, the entire Song Dynasty would not have fallen apart. When Zhang Ling learned that Yu Shouren wanted to appoint him as the governor of Pingxi County, he thought that Zhang Ling would flatly refuse, but he did not expect that when the other party heard the news, he immediately nodded and agreed, and even scolded him severely:

A real man is born in this world. Since he is well-educated and wise, he should serve his country. Now that the Song Dynasty is in need of talents, how can he be timid?

Cai Shao was immediately confused. Li Linpu had invited him to take up an official position before, but his teacher Zhang Ling directly scolded him: "If you dare to take up the position, don't recognize me as your teacher in the future."

Just as he was hesitating, Zhang Ling slowly said, "The current ruler of the Song Dynasty has great talent. If he can do his best to assist, the Song Dynasty will surely see a sign of revival."

Cai Shao had also heard of Ye Feng in his heart. His teacher had always had high standards, but the fact that he could praise Ye Feng so much made him even more curious.

However, after actually arriving in Pingxi County and spending more than ten days with Ye Feng, he finally understood why his teacher respected Ye Feng so much.

This is a person who has extraordinary talent but is not arrogant; has extraordinary fame but is not impatient; has countless abilities but does not take credit for them. This kind of person is well-versed in the classics, history, and literature, and has heard and seen things that have never been heard before.

"Everyone, see you later!"

Ye Feng jumped onto the horse, with the Emperor's Sword on his waist, Meteor Boots on his feet, a gray and white robe on his body, and a hair crown on his head. There was a heroic look in his expression.

"Farewell, Lord Zhenguo!"

Seeing Ye Feng riding away on his warhorse, Cai Shao and other officials and generals stationed on the border all bowed and saluted.

"Long live the King of the State!"

Little did they know that when Ye Feng and his army had just walked a short distance, countless people had already gathered on both sides of the road. They spontaneously knelt on the ground and began to shout.

Ye Feng rode on a warhorse, his eyes sparkling, holding the Emperor's Sword, and laughed: "Don't be polite, everyone. I won't live to be a thousand years old... The current Emperor is practicing martial arts in the palace!"

"Hahaha……"

Many people were also amused by Ye Feng's teasing.

"Everyone listen up, follow me and go to training immediately!"

When Zhao Long saw Ye Feng's departing back, he tightly grasped the silver spear in his hand, with a strong desire to fight in the depths of his eyes. He secretly swore in his heart that since Ye Feng had handed the light cavalry to him, he would never let him down.

Da da da……

The sound of horse hooves rang out, and Zhao Long took the lead. The 20,000 light cavalry behind him, each soldier holding a cavalry sword, followed closely in an orderly formation.

……

Jinling City, Prime Minister’s Mansion.

Bang!Bang!

Li Limpu threw the teacup in his hand heavily to the ground, smashing it to pieces. His eyes were wide open, he was furious, and his face was gloomy and terrifying.

He never expected that Ye Feng left Jinling City with 5,000 cavalrymen and in just over four months, he pacified the King of Nanyu and the King of Pingxi successively.

Now the entire southern region of the Song Dynasty was completely under Ye Feng's control. The streets were filled with discussions about Ye Feng, and his presence as prime minister was becoming weaker and weaker.

"Dad, what should we do now? I heard that Ye Feng didn't just come back alone, he also brought back a triumphant army of more than 100,000." Li Xun was unwilling in his heart. Ever since Ye Feng appeared in the Song Dynasty, he, who claimed to be the number one young talent, became dim.

Ye Feng had previously led 5,000 cavalrymen to recapture the Eighteen Cities of Yanyun, and on the way he killed Ye Wang Zhao Xiong, and brought back the male spearman Yang Zaixing and the northern swordman Zhong Feihua.

The two men each led an army of 50,000 to defend the city of Jinling.

Now, he has destroyed the King of Nanyu and the King of Pingxi, and brought back an army of more than 100,000.

Once Ye Feng returns, there will be no place for them, father and son, to stay in Jinling City.

Da da da……

At this moment, footsteps were heard outside the yard, and then there was a bustling noise. It was the Minister of Rites Tan Zijian and the Minister of Works Qu Xuan, followed by a dozen officials.

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, we heard that Ye Feng is about to return to Jinling City with an army of more than 100,000. What should we do now?" Qu Xuan spoke first, his face looking extremely ugly, and he secretly regretted in his heart. If he had known that Ye Feng was so powerful, he should have cut off his relationship with Li Linpu earlier. Now it seems a little too late.
