Chapter 485
As 4th Madam Xu, who had always been weak, heard this, she also asked her people to get her weapons. 1st Madam Xu sighed before she patted Mu Mingtangâs hand slightly and said, âPrincess, donât worry, Zhongshan is the foundation of the Xu family after all. My familyâs Lang Er would not let them take you.â
They closed the door. Although the room was full of women, everyone had weapons in their hands. The 5th Madam laid down by the door to listen to the noise outside. She only heard a few people rushing into the backyard, followed by many footsteps and the faint voice of Senior General Xu, âYour Grace, this is where my wife and my daughters-in-law live. Itâs all full of women, so it would be a great inconvenience. I plead the imperial envoy to not intrude upon the back house.â
However, the imperial envoy refused to leave despite repeated persuasion from Senior General Xu. In the end, Xu Qilang couldnât bear it anymore and said angrily, âThis is too much, do you really think that my Xu family has no men?â
Mu Mingtang stood up suddenly, âYour Highness?â
The people in the courtyard also turned around suddenly, before any one of the Beirong soldiers had time to react, his throat was sealed with a sword. The imperial envoy was startled by the sudden appearance of a horse and fell to the ground in a panic, âHow dare you, Prince An! His Majesty has given an order to relieve you of all military authority.â
Xie Xuanchen rode his horse and rushed directly into the backyard, causing a lot of noise along the way. Fortunately, everyone in the Xu family was good at martial arts, so no one was hurt at this moment. Xie Xuanchen originally led his people to rush back to the capital to aid the situation, but on the way he received an order that was to dismiss him on the spot as the three northern towns were also ceded to the Beirong people.
Xie Xuanchen was so angry that he laughed out loud. After he finished laughing, he tore up the imperial edict in front of the envoy and took his people back to Zhongshan.Gett your favorite novels at
