After the failed attempt to pretend to be dead, the sickly child was favored by the treacherous mini

After going through untold hardships, Tian Ding finally arrived at the Eastern Border, but he arrived ten days later than the original date.

Compared with his previous speed of riding at full speed day and night, it was at least half a month late.

Inside the central military tent, Tian Ding read out the imperial edict in front of Han Shu, and then handed it to Han Shu.

Han Shu held the imperial edict in his hand and read it several times, but he never knelt down to take it.

With his parents' previous experience as a lesson and his great revenge yet to be avenged, how could Han Shu give up this good situation and choose to return to the capital?

Tian Ding, who had been pulling at the tattered robe, finally realized through Han Shu's silent hesitation that this seemingly simple imperial edict was actually not easy to deliver.

Han Shu was extremely resistant to returning to the court. Tian Ding even felt from the deep thought in Han Shu's eyes that Han Shu was thinking of a reason to reject the imperial edict.

Therefore, the purpose of this imperial edict to summon Han Shu and his brother back to the court was definitely not to discuss whether to annihilate the Eastern Japanese in one fell swoop.

Thinking about the difficulties encountered along the way, Tian Ding had a bold guess in his mind.

Those who didn't want him to reach the East Territory smoothly might not want him to be killed for failing to do his job well.

Maybe you want to protect him?

"Sister, the East Japanese bandits are shameless, they actually set fire to the warships!"

Han Zhou opened the commander's tent, revealing traces of fireworks on his armor and face. He rescued Han Shu from this difficult situation.

Upon hearing this, Han Shu dropped the imperial edict and hurried out of the tent: "Has the fire been brought under control?"

"Arrangements have been made to put out the fire. The fire is so big that the twenty warships that we built with great difficulty will suffer heavy losses."

Han Zhou was talking about twenty ships. According to the original planned speed, Han Zhou can only have twenty warships now.

The remaining ten warships were Han Zhou's chance to delay the fight with Xia Hong.

There was black smoke in the distance and the raging fire was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Can the warship Zhiguan sail across the ocean to wash away the blood feud? How can Han Shu care about whether to return to the capital now?

Taking the whip from the personal guard, Han Shu immediately mounted the horse and headed towards the harbor.

Han Zhou reached out and grabbed the reins to stop the horse from moving forward.

Afraid that Tian Ding didn't see the black dust on his face, Han Zhou turned his head and stared at Tian Ding until he looked away, then he said to Han Shu: "Sister, you stay in the army and entertain Lord Tian, ​​and I will take care of the fire."

"If you and I go together and do our bit, we can save one more ship."

Han Zhou did not loosen his hand, but raised his face to look at his elder sister.

The brother and sister looked at each other for a long time before Han Shu remembered what Han Zhou had just said.

Since he was only arranging the fire-fighting task, there would definitely be no traces of fire-fighting on his body.

Han Shu understood this principle, and Tian Ding must also understand it.

Now, neither of the two siblings will go back to Luoan with Tian Ding.

Today's fire was set for Tian Ding to see, and naturally it was also told to Xia Hong through Tian Ding's eyes.

After watching Han Zhou leave, Tian Ding followed Han Shu into the tent again.

The embarrassment in her eyes disappeared, and Han Shu held the imperial edict and knocked it on the desk again and again, which hit Tian Ding's heart.

"Haha." He laughed dryly twice: "When will General Han... When will he return to the capital?"

Han Shu sighed helplessly, "Alas, Lord Tian has also heard that bandits are everywhere in the East Territory. If I return to the Divine Capital, those despicable villains will come back again. How will the people of the East Territory survive?"

Tian Ding pursed his lips and tried to put on a smile: "You and General Xiao Han know the same thing about the East Territory, so why not let General Xiao Han return to the court with me?"

"Not to mention that there are still ten warships that have not been completed. If the fire is set, it will take more than a month just to repair these warships."

Therefore, Han Shu cannot leave the Eastern Territory, and Han Zhou cannot leave the Eastern Territory even more.

Tian Ding's smile was uglier than crying at this moment: "This is the first time I have received an imperial decree to leave the capital. Now no one is protecting me, you have to leave me a way out, right?"

The man in front of her looked desperate and even a little pitiful, which really made Han Shu feel a little pity for him.

But again, only a little.

"Sir Tian, ​​why don't you go back to the tent and rest for a while? I will give you a definite answer after I have summoned all the lieutenants to discuss matters."

"Hey, thank you, General Han."

After receiving the promise, Tian Ding happily returned to the tent to wash up. When he walked out of the tent with wet hair, he saw dozens of carts heading towards the place where the smoke was billowing.

A carriage came from where the fire started. The sea breeze blew and the curtains were lifted. Tian Ding rubbed his eyes dazedly and felt that the figure was too familiar.

Just as he was about to catch up, the man who was supposed to put out the fire came out of Han Shu's tent, holding a spear, and stopped Tian Ding from moving forward.

Tian Ding was really panicked this time.

The atmosphere in the East Territory is so weird now, so weird that he is afraid that he will be killed to silence him.

"General Xiao Han, I...are we friends?"

Tian Ding didn't want to die, and what's more, the country was full of termites and corruption, so it was no big deal if Han Zhou led his troops to rebel.

"I guess so." Han Zhou's answer was somewhat reluctant: "My sister and I will return to the court after we have eliminated all the bandits and repaired the warships. Lord Tian, ​​do you understand?"

Tian Ding nodded: "I understand. I will return to Shendu to report now."

All the luggage that had not been unloaded yet was slightly tied up, and Tian Ding, who had not even had time to tie his hair, rode out of the military camp on horseback in this outfit that was not suitable for going out.

When they were more than twenty miles away from the military camp, Tian Ding suddenly fell off the horse, and the horse pulling the carriage was hit by a stone from nowhere, knocking the carriage down directly.

Coincidentally, the shaft of the carriage fell on Tian Ding's legs.

Coincidentally, Tian Ding's leg was broken.

After randomly visiting a local clinic, Tian Ding, who had a broken leg, could only rest in the inn for a few days before being slowly dragged back to the capital in a carriage.

Just as Tian Ding was gritting his teeth and enduring the pain while imagining Han Zhou leading his troops to attack the capital, the door of the inn was pushed open from the outside.

"You just got married at such an old age, but your legs are broken. What will you do if you get divorced in the future?"

Yang Huai raised his hand and poked Tian Ding's legs which were tied with wooden boards.

"Hiss, be gentle."

After waving his arms and legs for a while, Tian Ding, whose legs were broken, didn't touch Yang Huai at all: "What are you doing here?"

"You've already guessed it, why are you still asking?"

Yang Huai had someone throw that stone. The purpose, of course, was to delay Tian Ding's return to Shendu.

Although he had gathered all the supplies, he had to transport them to the eastern border in batches in order to conceal his tracks. It would probably take another three or two days before all of them could be loaded onto the ship.

Being seen by Tian Ding was an accident, but Yang Huai was afraid that Tian Ding might have the wrong idea and cause trouble for his master.

"Are you really going to rebel?"

"A hundred thousand Tiger Power troops can rebel?"

If it were possible to rebel, they would have done it long ago. Who would want to endure this hardship?

"So what are you doing?"

"You think I can tell you?"

Tian Ding asked for trouble: "I don't want to go back to Shendu at all. Good Ah Huai, I don't want to work hard anymore. You can support me in the future."

"Humph, sooner or later, tell your wife and let her deal with you."

After making sure that Tian Ding would not leak the news, Yang Huai stood up from Tian Ding's bed and patted Tian Ding's cheek: "If you handle it well, maybe we can wait for the day when the capital of the gods is no longer the capital of the gods, but just Luoan City in our lifetime."
