Chapter 776 [Under the Brocade 72]
When Lan Qingxuan was meditating with the emperor, Yan Song came with a group of court officials without warning, claiming that they had important matters to discuss with the emperor. It turned out that they came to impeach Wu Shouxu, and what was unexpected was that the highly-regarded Lord Liao was also involved.
Not long after, the imperial censors in the court united to impeach Lord Liao. Lord Xu saw this and thought it was a great opportunity to eliminate Lord Liao, so he hurried to find Lan Qingxuan, hoping to get his assistance and cooperation.
At the same time, Lu Yi also received a letter from Lan Qingxuan. The news in the letter made Lu Yi's heart tighten. It turned out that Yan Song and others openly impeached Yu Dayong. What's worse, the emperor seemed to have doubts about Dayong and even began to suspect whether he was secretly colluding with foreign enemies and treason.
Lu Yi knew very well that Yu Dayong was a man of upright character, who was devoted only to defending his country and fighting bravely against the enemy, and he would never do such a treasonous thing.
Moreover, Yu Dayong has never belonged to any faction. Everything he did was simply out of his loyalty to the country and the people and his desire for victory in the war.
Just when Wu Shouxu was worried about the shortage of food and grass, Lu Yi appeared in time like a savior. Lu Yi told Wu Shouxu that Chun Yumin was willing to donate all the food and grass stored by the Chunyu family to solve the current urgent problem.
Wu Shouxu was overjoyed when he heard the news, and a huge stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. After all, this batch of food and grass is very important to the army, and it can be said to be a timely help.
Although Lu Yi's move was not entirely to help himself, it actually solved his biggest problem at the moment.
Wu Shouxu was in a good mood and was grateful to Lu Yi. He thanked him repeatedly. Later, Lu Yi asked Wu Shouxu to inspect the army. Wu Shouxu would not refuse and agreed immediately and arranged for Lu Yi to go to the military camp the next morning.
On the other hand, Yan Shifan, who was away from home, also received an urgent order from Yan Song asking him to return to the capital as soon as possible. However, Yan Shifan did not take the matter too seriously at this time. He casually said that he would deal with the affairs at hand before returning to the capital.
Mao Da Dangjia was very eager to meet Yan Shifan and had expressed his wish to meet him many times. In desperation, Zhai Lanye had to go out in person to find Yan Shifan. When Zhai Lanye finally met Yan Shifan, Yan Shifan actually asked Zhai Lanye to accompany him to the appointment.
At the same time, Lan Qingxuan reported to the emperor that there was going to be exciting news about the Southeast dispute. Upon hearing this, the emperor's gloom instantly dissipated. However, when the emperor learned that Lord Liao had built a luxurious house, he could not help but feel angry.
On the other side, Yang Yue was on his way under the scorching sun, with only one goal - to find Shangguan Xi. After a long journey, Yang Yue finally arrived at his destination.
As for Lu Yi, after he arrived at the military camp, he was ruthlessly blocked by the guards and was not allowed to enter. At this time, General Qi hurried over and told the guards that Wu Shouxu had ordered him to bring Lu Yi and Cen Fu.
Despite this, Lu Yi and Cen Fu still had to wait outside for a long time. After a full hour, Yu Dayong slowly appeared.
Yu Dayong has always been quite disgusted with people in officialdom, but when Lu Yi handed him a letter, his attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees.
He immediately asked someone to take Lu Yi to settle him down properly, and said that they would meet again after finishing the military affairs.
Yang Yue kept asking fellow villagers about the exact location of Cengang on the way, and also learned about Shangguan Xi's whereabouts. It turned out that Shangguan Xi really went to Cengang with the Southern Shaolin Temple as the rumors said.
Cen Fu looked at the food served in front of him and couldn't help but frowned, muttering to himself: "We are only using these simple meals to entertain the master? You know, our master is a noble man, how can he eat such food!"
However, in sharp contrast to Cen Fu's dissatisfaction, Lu Yi seemed quite easy-going and did not show any disgust on his face.
Lu Yi knew that Yu Dayong was not a man who was good at dealing with people. He could tell from his perfunctory attitude towards his group that he would not be much better towards other visitors.
However, as the saying goes, no one is perfect. Although Yu Dayong is not good at socializing, he is still a general with real skills and talents.
At this time, Uncle Gai was rushing to the military camp with Lin Ling and Yang Chengwan, but they encountered a group of vicious Japanese pirates on the way.
The Japanese pirates, holding sharp blades and showing ferocious faces, rushed towards them aggressively. At this critical moment, the clever Youyou quickly blew the whistle in his hand.
In an instant, a burst of shouting was heard, and then a group of strong and righteous men rushed out like gods descended from the sky and started a fierce battle with the Japanese pirates.
Seeing this, Youyou quickly turned around and shouted to everyone, "This place is dangerous, let's leave quickly and let them handle this!"
Lin Ling nodded when she heard this and said, "Okay!" Then the group left in a hurry.
On the other side, Lu Yi finally found Yu Dayong and wanted to discuss some serious matters with him. Unexpectedly, Yu Dayong interrupted him before he could even open his mouth.
It turned out that Wu Shouxu had told Yu Dayong before that Lu Yi came to check the battle situation. Therefore, Yu Dayong had prepared all the battle reports early and took this opportunity to hand them all to Lu Yi.
Afterwards, he made up an excuse and slipped away without hesitation.
Faced with such a situation, even if Lu Yi had a lot to say in his heart, he was helpless at the moment.
After being interrupted several times, he could only shake his head helplessly and sighed: "It seems that Wu Shouxu's letter not only did not help at all, but it seemed to be more of a hindrance..."
