The Prodigal Son of the Empire

"I'm afraid you can't leave Qingzhou."

"why?"

Zhen Xuan said in a low voice: "Duke Ding is coming to Qingzhou..."

Hearing this, Zhang Ao froze immediately.

Ling Tiance is coming to support the front line, this matter has already been rumored, and the voice is very loud, how could he not know.

Zhang Ao's complexion was a bit complicated, he also belonged to the old line of nobles, and even obeyed Ling Tiance.

The reason why Fuyang Earl's Mansion was suppressed before was this person's suggestion.

But at the last moment, he turned to the court, or rather to the people.

This means that he has completely drawn a clear line with the old line of aristocrats...

"Master Hou, I can't figure it out. How could that man do this?"

"It's simple."

"He is not sure, or he is afraid. Wang Kang's birth has completely checked and balanced him, so it is like this."

"But the war is over."

Selection looked puzzled.

"It's only after the war is over!"

Zhang Ao said coldly: "This is to pick peaches, or to grab prestige, he is afraid that Wang Kang will not be able to hold back."

The selection was suddenly enlightened.

Zhang Ao sighed lowly: "The war is over, and I want to submit a battle report to the court. Many people who just showed their faces in the war before came to me to give gifts. I don't know what they mean?"

"It is for me to report the military exploits."

"What's more, he also implicitly proposed..."

As Zhang Ao said, he clenched his fists!

"Propose what?"

"Tell me not to go to Shangshui County to rescue Wang Kang."

"what!"

Zhen Xuan exclaimed in shock: "How could this be possible? If Wang Kang hadn't arrived in Yan State and Ping Nanyan, Zhao State would have been torn apart..."

"How can this be?"

Zhang Ao said calmly: "It is precisely because Wang Kang is too eye-catching that he is not tolerated by others. You understand, this is human nature. When the war ends, politics will begin. That person is ready to play politics."

"Then what are you going to do?"

"I'm still going to let Wang Kang be my son-in-law, what do you think can be done?"

"what!"

Zhen Xuan opened his mouth wide.

"Hurry up and arrange for someone to deliver a letter to Xianxian. She has recovered from her cold and should be back."

"You want to marry Miss to Wang Kang, but you are not unaware of Miss's temper. She is most opposed to this kind of parental order and matchmaker's words."

"What is the order of parents?"

Zhang Ao said, "I am the beauty of an adult, and it's not like you don't know the deeds of Wang Kang and Xianxian."

"Besides, I have already left a big tree, so I should choose another big tree."

"But is Wang Kang a big tree? Maybe he is worthy of your hug, you are the governor of a province."

"You don't understand yet, and you won't be able to hug it any later."

Zhang Ao said coldly: "Anyway, I've already torn my face, so let's be thorough. What does Ling Tiance have to do with me? Send an order and set off to trade water. I hope it's not too late..."

But Zhang Ao didn't know that it must be too late, because Wang Kang had already left Shangshui and went to chase the Yan army.

After dealing with the Dongshe Plain and other matters, Wang Kang led the army to set off.

This time, he didn't take Li Qingman with him, her belly was showing day by day, especially now that it's freezing cold, it's not suitable.

Zhao Guoping decided that it would be best to return to the family to raise a baby with peace of mind.

Wang Kang knew that this decision of his would inevitably cause another big commotion.

The Yan army has already retreated, which in itself is a victory, so why continue to pursue.

Moreover, with his small force, he went on an expedition to the country of Yan, wouldn't it be like throwing an egg at a rock.

But Wang Kang did just that.

Taking advantage of the defeat of the Yan army, he took advantage of the victory to pursue, and this was also to fulfill the oath he had made.

That day in Fengcheng, Nanbin County, the Yan army occupied the city and threatened the people in the city to prevent him from attacking the city.

That's when he swore.

Kill a person, slaughter a city.

Now that the oath has been made, it must be fulfilled. This is Wang Kang's principle.

Now that he has already done the killing of gods, it is better to be more thorough...

Snow is still falling.

After several days in succession, the snow on the ground was already very thick, making it difficult to march.

The bad weather is the most unsuitable for fighting, but this can't stop Wang Kang from moving forward.

In order to cope with the inconvenience of marching in this environment, Wang Kang made another thing... a sled!

This is a vehicle mounted on a pair of gliding tools, which was not uncommon in the previous life, with horse-drawn, dog-drawn, etc.

Wang Kang, on the other hand, made some modifications to make it more suitable for marching. The sled has a simple structure and can be easily made.

It is mainly pulled by horses. In order to prevent slippery roads in snowy weather, Wang Kang also specially designed a harness for horses. This harness is made of coarse cloth and can prevent slipping.
