The empress is wild and cool, and I'll help her secure her throne

Chapter 77 Teaching Xia Ruoxi a Lesson

All the civil and military officials looked over here in horror at this moment!

They couldn't believe their eyes!

What did they see?!

A lowly corpse tailor actually slapped the female general who returned victoriously!

Even if this female general failed to gain military merit, it was not something this lowly person could do to her!

How dare this corpse tailor!

Everyone was stunned!

After Xia Ruoxi stood firm, the anger of being slapped in public by a bitch instantly filled her chest!

This bastard!

How dare you hit me!

He used to obey me!

Immediately, all the pressure around her was released by Xia Ruoxi!

She looked at Ye Qianxuan fiercely and shouted angrily:

"You bitch! How dare you hit me in public! I'll kill you!"

Xia Ruoxi's cultivation level is now higher than Ye Qianxuan's!

The siege these days also allowed her to break through to the realm of perfection!

Killing Ye Qianxuan, a corpse tailor at the peak of internal strength, is as easy as pie!

However, the Minister of Rites Kong Zhongzhi and the Nine Gates Commander Duan Zhenggang all stood in front of Ye Qianxuan and protected him!

"General Xia! This is the imperial court! Don't mess around!"

Both of them released their own pressure to suppress Xia Ruoxi!

Xia Ruoxi knew she was no match for the two of them, and the anger in her heart turned into a series of cold sneers:

"Okay, okay! You said this is the court! I won't touch him!"

"Then what should I do about the slap he gave me?"

"If a lowly person assaults an official appointed by the imperial court, he shall be executed according to the law!"

All the civil and military officials shook their heads. Ye Qianxuan was too impulsive!

Even if the empress favors him, he doesn't have the capital to beat people in the court!

"This..." Duan Zhenggang and Kong Zhongzhi were speechless for a moment, and could only look at Ye Qianxuan.

Ye Qianxuan just looked at Xia Ruoxi coldly and asked:

"General Xia, let me ask you, do you still remember Pang Xingyu? Do you still remember Niu Ling?"

"Pang Xingyu? Niu Ling?" Xia Ruoxi frowned slightly: "I don't remember!"

"Ye Qianxuan, it won't work even if you mention anyone's name now!"

"Today I will have to kill you!"

Ye Qianxuan's voice suddenly became sad:

"Pang Xingyu, a lieutenant general in the Red Sleeves Army, a fifth-rank officer, died protecting you because of your foolish command of the siege!"

"Niu Ling, a lieutenant commander and messenger in the Red Sleeves Army, a seventh-rank officer, died for love with Pang Xingyu!"

"Xia Ruoxi, you actually forgot!"

Xia Ruoxi was stunned for a moment, then frowned:

"I seem to have some impression."

"How could I possibly remember a mere lieutenant general and messenger?"

"Besides, war is always fatal! What do you mean by mentioning these two soldiers to me right now?"

Ye Qianxuan's voice was filled with sorrow and anger:

"War kills people!"

"But they shouldn't be caused by the commander's stupidity!"

Xia Ruoxi was furious when she heard this:

"You are just a lowly corpse-sewer, and you dare to call my command stupid!"

"You have insulted an official of the imperial court and dared to slap me. Your crime is even more serious and you must be executed immediately!"

Ye Qianxuan was not afraid at all, pointing at Xia Ruoxi's nose and scolding:

"I'm slapping you on behalf of every Pang Xingyu and Niu Ling!"

"Xia Ruoxi! Remember this! Every soldier under your command was born by their parents, has a wife and children, and is handed over to you, Xia Ruoxi, to defend the Eastern Zhou Dynasty!"

"You just casually said 'There will always be casualties in war' and let them die. Why?"

"More than 5,000 people! That's more than 5,000 people!"

"You say die, and they die! You say let them die, and they have to die!"

"Who are you, Xia Ruoxi!"

"You will die miserably like this!"

When Ye Qianxuan finished speaking, he was already crying!

As an ordinary person, he really feels sorry for the lives of more than 5,000 people!

They shouldn't have died... They shouldn't have died!

This made Xia Ruoxi a little stunned!

Could it be that I was really wrong?!

Do not!

You are right!

Even if it's wrong!

It’s not the turn of this lowly corpse seamstress to teach me a lesson!

Immediately, Xia Ruoxi said sternly:

"Ye Qianxuan, don't be so arrogant!"

"It's not your place to tell me how I lead my troops in battle!"

"You insulted and assaulted an imperial official! Think about how you're going to survive..."

Before Xia Ruoxi could finish her words, Ye Qianxuan threw a bronze red book and iron certificate at her face which had the mark of a slap on it!

Xia Ruoxi was stunned!

How did this guy get another bronze red book and iron certificate?

"Xia Ruoxi! You bastard!"

"You should kneel down and commit suicide to make amends to those soldiers who died!"

Ye Qianxuan roared angrily.

When Duan Zhenggang and Kong Zhongzhi saw the bronze red-lettered iron certificate, they breathed a sigh of relief and quickly pulled the emotional Ye Qianxuan away from the court.

Only Xia Ruoxi was left, staring at the bronze red book and iron certificate in a daze.

With this bronze book and iron certificate, there is indeed no way for him to do anything to Ye Qianxuan!

But, is what Ye Qianxuan said really right...

No!

She wants to find the military god who wrote "Wujing Zongyao"!

She wanted to confirm with the God of War whether she was wrong or not!

Then, she immediately looked around and shouted, "Excuse me, which general wrote the 'Wu Jing Zong Yao'? Ruoxi begs to see it!"

She asked three times in a row. The eunuchs looked at each other, the civil officials looked at each other in confusion, and the military officials looked astonished. No one answered!

Xia Ruoxi couldn't hide her disappointment.

Ye Haomo came over and asked with concern: "Ruoxi, are you okay? Does your face hurt?"

"Alas! That's just how my brother is. Don't take it to heart!"

"By the way, what is this 'Wu Jing Zong Yao' you mentioned?"

Xia Ruoxi shook her head and then replied:

"It's a military book written by a general!"

"I was able to capture Linshi City thanks to that military book!"

"But I think my previous plan was correct! I believe that there should be casualties in war, and that's correct! I want to find that general and confirm it! Then I can give that lowly corpse-stitcher a good slap in the face!"

Ye Haomo nodded in sudden realization: "Perhaps it was done by some old general who has lived in seclusion in the world!"

"The contact addresses of all the old generals are in Anlu Academy. I can take you to visit them one by one!"

Ye Haomo tried his best to show his usefulness, hoping that Xia Ruoxi would think that using military merit to save him was useful.

"Okay! Once I find the old general and confirm that I'm not wrong, I'll go find that lowly corpse tailor and settle all the old and new grudges!" Xia Ruoxi said hatefully, touching her face.

Upon hearing this, a military officer passing by said calmly:

"What old general? The author of 'Wu Jing Zong Yao' is Ye Qianxuan, the craftsman who just slapped you!"

"what?!"

Everyone was shocked!

Because when the empress announced this matter that day, she only called the military officers in the capital to the imperial study!

Therefore, no one in the civil service group or the eunuch group knew that the author of "Wujing Zongyao" was Ye Qianxuan!

This lowly corpse-sewlager actually wrote such a military book and helped Xia Ruoxi capture Linshi City?!

Is that guy... a monster?!

Why can you do everything!

"No... no... how is it possible! He is just a lowly person! How could he write such a brilliant military book!" Xia Ruoxi's face was full of panic and she didn't believe it at all!

Ye Xiuzhuan also bowed slightly: "General, please stop making fun of us! My brother has only been able to sew corpses his entire life. How could he possibly have created such a god-like military book?"

"Who is making fun of you? How dare you, a mere editor, be so arrogant?" The military officer from the capital glanced at Ye Haomo with disdain!

What military officers dislike most are hypocrites and spineless people like Ye Haomo who are full of sour words!

"If you don't believe me, just ask His Majesty!"

"Your Majesty is a witness to the completion of Master Ye's calligraphy!"

There is no point in saying more, the military officer left.

Xia Ruoxi and Ye Haomo's faces were filled with shock!

Especially Xia Ruoxi!

Ye Qianxuan, this lowly corpse-sewlager, turned out to be the military god he had always admired and yearned for?!

Her heart suddenly ached!

Then what Ye Qianxuan just said, isn't it all true? !

Am I really an idiot?!

At that moment, a feeling of regret suddenly rose in Xia Ruoxi's chest!
