At this moment, two carriages drove in front and behind the inn again, immediately attracting the attention of the crowd on the street.

The guests in the inn, seeing the group coming in with such a fierce momentum, were so scared that they all hid back in their rooms.

For a moment, the only people left on the first floor of the inn were Chen Dianjun and the innkeeper.

The carriages stopped to one side. A young man in black got off the former carriage, and an elegant old man got off the latter carriage. The two looked at each other, then looked at Chen Dianjun's carriage, and they understood everything.

The two greeted each other and walked into the inn one after the other.

When Chen Dianjun saw the person coming, he immediately became interested and said, "Huang Jinwen, I didn't expect that the Fourth Prince actually asked you to come. It seems that our goals are the same."

"What a pity! The person we were looking for was kicked out of the inn by the innkeeper last night and has long been missing."

Huang Jinwen said expressionlessly: "Oh, it seems that it is useless for you to come early, and we also get nothing."

Then the elegant old man came to Chen Dianjun's side and used Confucianism to transmit the message: "Dianjun, the lord asked me to tell you that he had dinner with Fei Chen the day before yesterday and mentioned a person named Chu Mo. He asked you to subdue this person for His Highness."

Chen Dianjun knew the old man's identity. He was the third prince's aide and a wise man. Due to his age, he rarely appeared in public.

The fact that the Third Prince sent this person here shows that Chu Mo needs to be taken very seriously.

The two of them completed the communication within a few breaths, and to outsiders, they were just smiling at each other.

Chen Dianjun smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Guo. I didn't expect that the Third Prince would ask you to run all the way. Come sit down and take a rest."

The shopkeeper, who was kneeling on the ground and trembling, stood up quickly after hearing this, put a stool in front of Mr. Guo, and said, "Sir, please sit down."

Guo Zhenfei glanced at the shopkeeper lightly, said nothing, but sat down.

The shopkeeper stood cautiously beside Guo Zhenfei, so frightened that he dared not breathe, and lowered his head, not daring to look directly at the three men.

The shopkeeper regretted this matter extremely. He didn't expect that just because of a misunderstanding, he would offend two unattainable beings.

He was helpless in the emperor's court. After working hard for most of his life and finally having the capital to settle down, he met with misfortune and offended two important figures.

I’m afraid I no longer have a place for myself in the capital.

Just as the inn fell into a strange silence, two guards in different costumes ran into the inn, one heading for Chen Dianjun and the other heading for Huang Jinwen.

Upon hearing the news, Chen Dianjun showed a hint of surprise, but quickly concealed it.

The same is true for Huang Jinwen on the other side.

The two guards withdrew, and Huang Jinwen smiled and said to Chen Dianjun: "I believe we now know the news about Wei Zheng and Tian Yiheng. How about going together? We will rely on our own abilities then."

Chen Dianjun and Huang Jinwen fought several times in secret, and they were always evenly matched, with a sense of mutual respect.

Guo Zhenfei conveyed the message and left in a carriage.

Chen Dianjun and Huang Jinwen rode on a horse-drawn carriage and headed straight towards the Xianyang Palace.

Unfortunately, their plans for today were doomed to fail.

Before the two carriages got close to Prince Xianyang's Palace, they were stopped by the shadow guards, who directly conveyed the emperor's order.

Seeing that the emperor had already known about this matter, the two men did not dare to make a big deal out of it and could only return empty-handed and report.

In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, all civil and military officials gathered together. Tang Tiansheng sat on the dragon throne and scanned everyone, finally stopping at Zhang Qing and Hua Rong.

Although the two men were not wearing armor but court robes, their heroic spirit could not be concealed and they gave people a sense of youthful vigor.

Tang Tiansheng slowly said, "My dear ministers, Zhang Qing and Hua Rong, I asked you to select soldiers and horses for training a few days ago. How is the result now?"

Zhang Qing and Hua Rong stepped out and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, after this period of training, our 1,000 troops have grown into a considerable force. Your Majesty can review them at any time."

Tang Tiansheng smiled and said, "Haha, you two are truly a gift from God to me. Not only are you brave and resourceful, you also know how to train soldiers."

Zhang Qing and Hua Rong hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, thank you for your praise. We are ashamed."

The ministers looked at each other, no one spoke, even the military generals kept their heads down and remained silent.

In the Battle of Mingzhou, the two men each led a thousand soldiers and achieved many remarkable feats, and even turned the defeat around. Who in the court dared to underestimate them?

What's more, although they are now deeply favored by the emperor, they are still humble and rarely offend others.

Tang Tiansheng smiled and said, "Some time ago, news came from Yunzhou nearby, saying that sea monsters have been harassing the people of Linhai during this period. Would you two be willing to lead the troops there?"

Zhang Qing and Hua Rong immediately volunteered to fight.

Tang Tiansheng smiled and said, "Okay, haha, since the two of you have agreed, I can't be stingy. From now on, you can recruit 3,000 people and rush to Yunzhou in five days. How about that?"

"As long as you make new contributions in this operation, I will expand your troops to three thousand when you return. How do you think?"

Zhang Qing and Hua Rong knelt on one knee and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. We will definitely fulfill our mission."

Tang Tiansheng looked at the two of them with a smile on his face.

Then he said in a relaxed tone: "Both of you were recommended by Mr. Chen Gong. Do you know Chu Mo?"

The eldest prince's pupils shrank when he heard this, and he looked at Zhang Qing and Hua Rong with shock in his eyes.

The fourth prince in the back lowered his head, and a gleam of brilliance flashed in his eyes when he heard the words.

Zhang Qing said, "Your Majesty, I have met him a few times, so I can say I know him."

Tang Tiansheng was not surprised, he had investigated them a long time ago. He naturally knew that the two had met Chen Gong in the theater when they first came to the imperial capital. It was not surprising for him to see Chu Mo, as he was not his target.

His purpose was to mention Chu Mo in the court so that all officials would remember this name and make plans for the future.

After hearing Zhang Qing's answer, Tang Tiansheng smiled and said, "I know that you two don't have many friends in the imperial capital, and you have been staying in the military hall to train soldiers. Now Chu Mo is in the Xianyang Palace in the imperial capital. Since we are acquaintances, we should visit each other more often."

Zhang Qing. Hua Rong agreed repeatedly after hearing this.

As for the other officials present, all of them were in the officialdom. How could they think that the matter was so simple? They had already memorized the name Chu Mo and were ready to conduct a secret investigation.

After a court meeting, Hua Rong and Zhang Qing were walking on the road when they were stopped by a voice.

"General Tianying, General Tianjie, please walk slower and wait for me."

The fourth prince Tang Chengji was seen walking towards here quickly, attracting the attention of all the ministers and the eldest prince.

Zhang Qing and Hua Rong were very respectful when they saw the visitor: "Greetings to His Highness the Fourth Prince. I wonder what is the important matter that His Highness has called my brothers to stop?"

Tang Chengji smiled and said, "I have always heard about the heroic deeds of the two generals. My father mentioned it again today. I admire you so much that I would like to invite you to my house for a gathering. Would you be willing to do me the honor?"

Zhang Qing smiled apologetically and said, "Your Highness, I'm sorry. It's such a coincidence that the emperor mentioned Chu Mo today. My brother and I were just about to visit him. After that, we have to be busy with recruiting soldiers and training. We are about to set out to fight the sea monster, so I'm afraid we can't get away."

Hearing Zhang Qing's answer, Tang Chengji's expression darkened and he said, "What a pity! The two generals serve the country and the people, and are truly role models for officials."

Hua Rong smiled and said, "I don't deserve the Fourth Prince's praise. My brother and I are just warriors. We don't understand the great principles. I'm afraid we can't have a conversation with Your Highness. Your Highness should just invite someone else to the banquet."

Seeing that Zhang Qing and Hua Rong rejected him, Tang Chengji snorted coldly, swung his robe and left.
