Martial Arts Crossover: Starting as a member of the Imperial Guard, all the ladies are demons

He only went inside to report after receiving permission outside the main hall.

It was the morning court session, and all the officials were present.

The messenger arrived before the palace, knelt respectfully, and presented a battle report with both hands, saying, "Your Majesty, a victory has been achieved in the south! General Zhao Yun has decisively defeated the 300,000-strong army of Southern Chu and killed the Southern Chu commander, Tang Yunzhi!"

"Whoosh!"

After he finished speaking, the entire court erupted in an uproar.

Everyone found it incredible.

Won?

No, we won already?!

Three hundred thousand was all it took to defeat them?

In most people's minds, a battle between two armies usually lasts for one or two months, and sometimes as long as half a year.

But Zhao Yun has only been gone for a little over a month.

That's how you win?

Xiao Jingyi, sitting in the head seat, was not surprised by this.

First, Zhao Yun always led a large army with powerful soldiers, the lowest of whom were sixth-rank soldiers. Second, with the Vermilion Bird Token, the army's main generals, such as Zhao Yun and Ma Chao, had reached the Vajra Realm in strength.

Without the suppression of military formations, the two of them would be invincible on the battlefield.

He just didn't expect Zhao Yun to surprise him so quickly.

It should be noted that he had just taken over the Zhang family. Now that Zhao Yun had won a great victory, it would undoubtedly further intimidate the officials from some aristocratic families and the major aristocratic families.

This is definitely a muscle-flexing stunt!

"Very well, bring it here, let me see how my son Zilong defeats the enemy."

Upon hearing this, Han Le quickly ran down to take the battle report and then respectfully handed it to Xiao Jingyi.

"Your Majesty, please take a look."

Picking up the battle report, Xiao Jingyi read the detailed events and nodded in satisfaction.

After ten years of free-range training in the southern border, Zhao Yun is now capable of handling matters independently.

"Pass down the order to announce the victory to the Great Liang!"

Upon hearing his words, the officials finally snapped out of their daze and bowed, saying, "Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

“…”

The morning court session that followed was hastily concluded due to Zhao Yun's report of victory.

On the way back to the Imperial Study, Xiao Jingyi said to Han Le, who was standing beside him, "Han Le, Marquis Xuanxuan has come to see me."

"Yes!"

Before long, Marquis Yan arrived at the palace, led by Han Le.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects."

"Lord Yan, please rise."

Upon seeing his arrival, Xiao Jingyi stood up to greet him and helped him up.

He then said, "Lord Yan, you should know why I've summoned you this time, right?"

"Your Majesty, is this about the mission to Southern Chu?"

"Exactly."

Xiao Jingyi nodded: "Originally, my idea was for you to go immediately after I ascended the throne, but the Southern Chu is not martial and has invaded with a large army. Now I want you to take advantage of the victory and go to the Southern Chu as an envoy."

"Give them a good lesson!"

If I win, I'll come to you and brag about it.

This is Xiao Jingyi's attitude.

He believed that after this battle, Southern Chu would definitely behave much better, at least in front of Daliang.

But he also knew that it was unrealistic to try to take over Southern Chu in one fell swoop, so he had to stop for now.

Upon hearing this, Marquis Yan bowed respectfully: "Your Majesty, I will certainly not fail in my mission!"

"I am at ease knowing you are going. However, for your safety, I need Dian Wei to go with you."

“Your Majesty, Commander Dian is in charge of the Imperial Guards. He is responsible for protecting Your Majesty. It would be a waste of his talents to send him along with this old minister.”

Upon hearing this, Lord Yan immediately refused.

In his view, Dian Wei was the one who protected Xiao Jingyi's safety.

"Lord Yan, I will not allow anything to happen to you. He must go with you!"

However, Xiao Jingyi's insistence left Yan Hou with no choice but to accept, and he was deeply moved. He immediately expressed his gratitude, saying, "This old minister thanks Your Majesty!"

The two then talked about other things, mainly that Yan Hou was asking Xiao Jingyi about his background.

Although Xiao Jingyi had previously said that he could do whatever he wanted, he couldn't actually do whatever he wanted.

They talked until late at night before Marquis Yan finally left the palace.

088 Marquis Yan's Mission, Xiao Jingyi: In Liang, I am the only one who reigns supreme (Please subscribe, please self-subscribe, please do everything)

"Dian Wei".

"Chen is here!"

After Yan Hou left, Xiao Jingyi summoned Dian Wei.

This time, he sent Dian Wei with Lord Yan, truly for Lord Yan's safety.

At that time, he still had to give Dian Wei some instructions, lest this simpleton disobey Lord Yan and refuse to listen to him.

After all, in the entire Liang Dynasty, Dian Wei only obeys him.

"Marquis Yan is going to Southern Chu on a diplomatic mission. You will accompany him. Remember not to cause trouble. Your only responsibility is to protect Marquis Yan's safety, understand?"

Upon hearing this, Dian Wei immediately scratched his head. Although somewhat unwilling, he only wanted to stay by Xiao Jingyi's side.

But he nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty, I obey."

Xiao Jingyi saw through his thoughts and immediately added, "When you return this time, I will allow you to get married and I will personally go to propose marriage for you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will certainly live up to your expectations and ensure Lord Yan's safety. No bandit from Southern Chu will be allowed to approach Lord Yan even a step!"

Look at the difference before and after; even Xiao Jingyi was speechless.

However, he didn't say anything; that's just Dian Wei's personality.

"Alright, go and prepare."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"By the way, has your mother been brought to Kyoto?"

Upon hearing Xiao Jingyi's question, Dian Wei paused for a moment, then said somewhat embarrassedly, "Your Majesty, I've been busy training the Imperial Guards lately and forgot."

"You idiot, how could you forget that!"

Xiao Jingyi laughed and cursed, but he knew that Dian Wei was not lying.

Since ascending the throne, Dian Wei has indeed been training the Imperial Guards, so he has had no time to do anything else.

He then added, "Remember to send a squad of Imperial Guards to fetch him. He's been busy for most of his life; it's time for him to enjoy his retirement."

"On behalf of my mother, I thank Your Majesty for your concern. I will make the arrangements shortly."

"Go."

"Yes!"

Watching Dian Wei leave, Xiao Jingyi shook his head and chuckled. Then he looked at Zhao Yun's battle report and nodded in satisfaction: "Now that the Southern Chu side is settled, the focus should be on the Northern Yan side."

"Judging by the days, Prince Jing and the others should have arrived at the battlefield by now."

Thinking of this, Xiao Jingyi shook his head again: "The intelligence in ancient times is really backward. If only there were telephones or something similar."

After sighing for a while, just as Xiao Jingyi was about to stretch, he felt a pair of delicate hands pressing on his temples.

This made things much easier for him.

Smelling the fragrance emanating from the newcomer, she reached out and pulled him into her arms: "Mo Shang, what brings you to see me today?"

The person who arrived was none other than Lian Ni Chang.

She was dressed in a blue robe today, her long hair flowing freely, her soft and delicate body lying in Xiao Jingyi's arms.

She gazed at him with adoration, then reached out and touched his face: "Your Majesty, if possible, I really don't want you to be so tired."

Seeing Xiao Jingyi so busy these days, Lian Ni Chang really felt sorry for him.

Back when he was a prince, Xiao Jingyi could chat and play with them from time to time.

But ever since he ascended the throne, he has been extremely busy, and sometimes it is difficult to even meet him.

Is it that Xiao Jingyi doesn't know how to delegate tasks to his subordinates?

On the contrary, he has already delegated a lot of power.

However, having just ascended the throne, he had far too many things to deal with.

Things will get better.

Xiao Jingyi chuckled and gently pinched her nose, then said, "Let me feel your belly to see if it's getting bigger."

"Your Majesty, there are no symptoms of pregnancy yet, how could it be growing big?"

Lian Ni Chang gave a coquettish remark.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jingyi chuckled and then picked her up in his arms: "How can that be? I said I wanted you to have children, so you must have them. Let's go."

"Your Majesty~"

"Very well, I'll have someone call Qingmei over as well."

"..."

In the end, Lian Ni Chang couldn't persuade Xiao Jing Yi to let Huang Xue Mei join the duo team.

.

The Great Liang achieved a great victory over the Southern Chu, not only annihilating the Southern Chu's 300,000-strong army but also killing its commander.

The news spread to neighboring countries within days.

Upon receiving this news, Emperor Yuwen Kuo of Southern Chu nearly lost his footing.

He looked at the soldier who had come to deliver the order and asked in horror, "What did you just say?! My 300,000 troops are gone?! All gone?!"

Yuwen Kuo found it hard to believe that in such a short time, his entire army had been defeated.

"Your Majesty, I have not spoken falsely at all. Moreover, my scouts at the front have reported that General Zhao Yun of the Great Liang Army has now deployed more than 100,000 troops on the border."

"Zhao Yun, it's Zhao Yun again."

"In the past ten years, it's one thing to have a princess, but how come another general like this has emerged?"

Hearing what the officials below said, Yuwen Kuo said with great resentment.

Upon hearing his words, the official stood there trembling, not daring to utter a sound.

"Ugh."

After a long pause, Yuwen Kuo finally sighed: "How come the Great Liang reacted so quickly? And that Xiao Jingyi has only just ascended the throne, how come all the officials listen to him so much?"

"It's really hard to believe."

"Your Majesty! Something terrible has happened! News has just arrived that the Great Liang has sent an envoy!"

Just then, Cheng Jili, the Minister of Rites of Southern Chu, walked in with a letter from the state, his voice tinged with panic.

News of the defeat of Southern Chu has now reached his ears.

Therefore, in his view, the people from Daliang were not friendly this time.
