The Era of Generals

Chapter 517 The City Lord's Mansion

The reason why Mr. Luo and Chen Ze were very sure that what happened to Cheng Hong was done by Mr. Hua was because the leader of the team coming from the opposite side was at the forefront.

This man Luo Zongbing and Chen Ze both know each other.

Mr. Jing!

The former commander of the military aircraft in Xiyun City, a small city in Anluo, was also Hua Lao's disciple.

When Chen Ze discovered the plan of Nantes Province, he was the first person to go to him.

And Mr. Jing was also the first person who valued Chen Ze at that time. In order to support Chen Ze, he did not hesitate to hand over the entire force of Xiyun City to Chen Ze, who was only a counselor at that time, and offended the left behind in Xiyun City. A large number of low- and middle-level generals.

Facts have proved that his judgment was correct. It was precisely because of Chen Ze that Xiyun City was finally saved. However, because of this, Mr. Jing, who knew that he was unfair, also resigned from the post of the commander of Xiyun City's military aircraft afterwards.

Afterwards, Mr. Jing returned to Bo'an City, and began to follow Mr. Hua again, the former chief of the military aircraft, and since then he has become a follower without any identity.

Zongbing Luo also saw Mr. Jing who silently followed Mr. Hua in Zheng Yuanyun's mansion at that time. His memory has always been very good. Although the two sides are still far apart, he still recognized him at a glance. come out.

Let alone Chen Ze.

Both of them found Mr. Jing who was leading the team, and when they got close to each other, they could still see the smile on Mr. Jing's face.

The other party is not hostile, it seems that they are just here to pick them up.

so?

After accepting Chen Ze's suggestion, Mr. Hua chose to resign when everyone left Bo'an City, and went to the relatively remote West Cloud City to redevelop.

So it stands to reason that Mr. Hua should not be in Bo'an City.

If he wasn't there, Mr. Jing shouldn't be there either, but the problem is, it was Mr. Jing who appeared outside Bo'an City at this time, leading a team of over a hundred people to welcome them?

From this, the two of them could not have imagined that there must be changes in Bo'an City. Mr. Jing's appearance here means that Elder Hua has also returned.

Moreover, the news of their return to the imperial court was not disclosed in advance, but only their group went back to Anluo province quietly, let alone no one should know the news of their return.

However, Mr. Jing knew in advance that he had to lead a team out to meet them at the exact time, which further confirmed the conjecture of the two of them.

It was Mr. Hua who arranged for Cheng Hong to pick up Mr. Luo's squad, so Mr. Hua knew very well that Chen Ze and the others would come back, so he came out to meet them in advance.

but……

Luo Zongbing and Chen Ze looked at each other not only to confirm what each other thought, but more importantly, based on Chen Ze's reasonable speculation before, Cheng Hong shouldn't have kept it from them if it was Hua Lao.

Why?

There were doubts in the eyes of both of them, and there was no answer for a while, so they simply stopped and waited for Mr. Jing's men to approach.

"Master Luo Zongbing, Brother Chen, I have been waiting for you for a long time!"

Mr. Jing didn't mean to be offended at all, as he got closer, he clasped his fists to the two of them on horseback, with a smile on his face.

General Luo nodded slightly to him, but Chen Ze also clasped his fists in return, asking out the doubts in their hearts.

"Mr. Jing, why are you here?"

"Could it be that……"

He paused, then pointed out: "Could it be that that person also returned to Bo'an City?"

The people on Chen Ze's side can be completely trusted, and they can speak without any scruples, but he doesn't know the origin of the group of people behind Mr. Jing, so he leaves a little room for speaking.

But Mr. Jing didn't seem to have these scruples, he just smiled and said: "Yes, Mr. Hua returned to Bo'an City, so I came back with him. This time, he ordered me to welcome you."

"At this moment, Mr. Hua has already prepared bouillon in the city lord's mansion. He just waits for you to go back, so that he can clean up the dust for you."

As soon as these words came out, Luo Zongbing and Chen Ze raised their eyebrows together.

What Mr. Jing said was the City Lord's Mansion, not the Military Aircraft Department!

The City Lord's Mansion in Bo'an City was originally Zheng Yuanyun's mansion, no, it should be said that it has always been Zheng Yuanyun's mansion!

So now Mr. Hua is holding a banquet at Zheng Yuanyun's mansion and waiting for their return?

Even if it's someone else's tea, isn't this speed too fast?

Of course, Chen Ze didn't think that Elder Hua was waiting for him at Zheng Yuanyun's mansion because he was preparing to indict him, so the only explanation was that Elder Hua had already occupied Zheng Yuanyun's mansion and changed Zheng's mansion...to Washington mansion?

Then this speed is still a bit fast!

The death of Zheng Yuanyun was only a month ago, and it was reported from Nantes Province to Anluo Province. How to say it took another ten days to half a month.

And Mr. Hua was far away at that time...

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in Chen Ze's mind, and he couldn't help saying: "So Hua Lao has returned to Bo'an City a long time ago?"

Only this explanation can explain why Tonghua Lao is so fast.

He has been living in the timeline of Nante Province, and it is not surprising that there have been some new changes in Anluo Province after such a long time.

Sure enough, Mr. Jing nodded with a smile and said, "That's right, after you came back to rescue the soldiers, Brother Chen, Mr. Hua received an order from Qingfeng City, asking him to return to Bo'an City to take power!"

"Rescue soldiers..."

Chen Ze pondered, then smiled wryly: "At that time, Zheng Yuanyun hadn't shown his defeat yet, right?"

Of course he remembered when it was, and the reason why he went back to Hua Lao to rescue the soldiers, didn't it mean that the person who was in trouble at that time was Chen Ze?

As a result, at that time, Qingfeng City ordered Hua Lao to return to Bo'an City to regain power?

Doesn't this mean that since then, Qingfeng City has been dissatisfied with Zheng Yuanyun, and intends to let Hua Lao, who has come back again, play a greater role?

"good!"

Mr. Jing nodded and said: "Zheng Yuanyun is very happy. It was clearly a simple victory, but he was dragged into a stalemate. You must know that the battle situation on his side is not only affecting him, but also There are successes and failures on other fronts."

"But because he has not taken down the province of Nantes, the empire has been tied up on other fronts, and many established plans have not been implemented, so Qingfeng City has long criticized him."

"And just at this time, the news of Hua Lao's comeback also spread back to Qingfeng City. Brother Chen, you can think about it. Is the empire willing to trust a general, or is it more willing to trust a person known as Qingyang Zhijiang? General?"

In the words, Mr. Jing's face was full of pride.

"I see!"

Chen Ze nodded slightly, and the doubts in his heart disappeared immediately.

That makes sense.

And Qingfeng City's dissatisfaction with Zheng Yuanyun, in fact, if you think about it carefully, it is indeed the case.

It's just that Zheng Yuanyun was too strong back then, even in Qingfeng City, it's not easy to attack casually.
