When he heard that his father had returned victoriously, Luo Tianbao naturally wanted to prepare to welcome him. Fortunately, nothing major happened in Xiangchang during this period. On the day when Lin Yunfei and others made their triumphant return, Luo Tianbao personally led local civil and military officials and celebrities from all walks of life.

He went out of the city to greet him, but while he was waiting, Zhang Hao, who was in charge of staying at the Yamen, hurried over.

"Young Marshal has found you, something big has happened."

Luo Tianbao had worked with Zhang Hao for a long time, and knew that this man was always steady in his work, so it was nothing serious to make him panic like this, so he immediately asked: "What's wrong?"

"Please take a look at this first." Zhang Hao said and handed over a letter. Luo Tianbao took it and saw that it was an official letter from the imperial court. It was fine without reading the content. After reading the content, even Luo Tianbao couldn't help but feel that it was behind his back.

A chill.

"Is this news true?" Luo Tianbao quickly turned to ask Zhang Hao.

"It can't be wrong, and my subordinates don't dare to believe it, so I checked it carefully and found that what is written above is absolutely true."

Luo Tianbao couldn't help frowning when he heard this. He originally thought that the rebels were rabbits with tails that couldn't grow, but he didn't expect such a big change. The situation in the world has become complicated and confusing again. However, Luo Tianbao has experienced great storms in the past few years.

After a while, I wasn’t particularly flustered at the time. I thought about it and turned around and asked Zhang Hao: “Who knows about this right now?”

"Not many people know about it. My subordinates know that this matter is of great importance, so they have strictly ordered the relevant people not to say anything for the time being."

"Well done. Today is to welcome the general's triumphant return. I can't ruin everyone's excitement. I will report this matter to the general. You go back to take charge of the overall situation of the yamen. In addition, try to find out more about the front line. The more detailed the better.

.”

"I understand." Zhang Hao heard the order and left immediately. Luo Tianbao put the official document in his arms and returned to his original position as if nothing had happened. Only Ye Di noticed what happened just now and asked casually: "Mr. Zhang

What's the matter with looking for you in such a hurry?"

"It's nothing. There are some changes in the war on the northern front. It's not a big problem. We'll talk about it in detail when dad comes back."

Ye Di was not stupid either. She observed Luo Tianbao's words and felt that Luo Tianbao was not sincere. However, she had been in the army for more than a day. She knew that not everyone could pry into some important military matters, so she did not ask any more questions at the moment.

Not long after, Lin Yunfei finally returned with a large group of troops. This time, the victorious soldiers were naturally in high spirits. When they arrived at the gate of the city, Luo Tianbao immediately led everyone to greet them. Everyone was naturally very happy to see each other again after a long absence. After a short welcome ceremony

, Luo Tianbao rode a horse to accompany his father and others as they officially entered the city. At this time, Luo Tianbao saw that other people around him did not pay attention to them, so he rode his horse to his father's side and whispered: "Dad, Your Highness the Crown Prince

Something happened over there."

Lin Yunfei originally came back from the victory with a face full of joy, but now he couldn't help but change his face when he heard his son's words.

"What's wrong?"

"Look at this." Luo Tianbao said, taking out the official document and handing it to his father. Lin Yunfei couldn't help but change his face after taking it. The official document didn't actually contain much, which meant that the main force of the official army led by His Royal Highness was here.

The north suffered a huge defeat and suffered heavy losses. Now most of the official army had been forced to retreat to the south bank of the river. Now the imperial court asked the rebel army to finish handling the affairs in Xiangzhou and quickly rush north to aid the prince.

"How could this happen?" Lin Yunfei couldn't help but be surprised. At first, almost everyone thought that the rebels were defeated and their demise was only a matter of time. But they didn't expect that such a big change would happen now.

"I don't know the details, and we are sending someone to find out."

It must be said that Lin Yunfei was a veteran after all, and he quickly regained his composure after overcoming the initial surprise.

"Don't make any noise about this matter for now. We'll talk about it later when we find out more about it."

"My child understands."

In this way, the group of people pretended that nothing was wrong and returned to the Yamen. The reception banquet was held as usual. Lin Yunfei drank happily with the generals as if nothing was wrong and talked about their achievements. Luo Tianbao watched from the side and couldn't help but sigh inwardly, how could his father do such a thing?

A great career depends not only on being unparalleled in martial arts, but also on having a mind that is beyond the reach of others. I am still far behind him.

After the reception banquet was over, Lin Yunfei called Luo Tianbao and several other confidants to the study, and then he talked about the failure of the main force of the army. No one except Luo Tianbao knew about this, and everyone was surprised when they heard it.

, and finally Lin Yunfei said: "It is reasonable for everyone to be surprised, but the details are not yet clear at the moment. Maybe the matter is not as troublesome as we thought. In short, we should not make any noise about it for the time being to avoid uneasiness in the army, but to prepare for a rainy day, everyone should leave a message.

Be careful and be prepared to go north for reinforcements at any time."

The people present had experienced hardships for a long time. Although they were frightened, they gradually calmed down after hearing what Lin Yunfei said. They all nodded. Then Lin Yunfei briefly made arrangements, and the generals dispersed one after another, except Luo Luo.

Tianbao was left behind by Lin Yunfei.

"Tianbao, is there anything going on in Xiangchang during my absence?"

"It's nothing serious. I just caught a few spies left behind by the rebels. I'm planning to report this to my father."

At that moment, Luo Tianbao talked about the case of Shangguan Qing and others. There happened to be some related documents in the study. Luo Tianbao also let his father take a look. Lin Yunfei nodded after reading: "Okay, Tianbao, you handled this case well."

, these people are like mosquitoes, they look inconspicuous, but when they bite someone, it’s really uncomfortable.”

"What dad said is absolutely true. In addition, regarding this case, the child has some negative feedback."

"What else?"

"The child is guilty, actually..." Luo Tianbao then told him about letting Xiang Buqun go without permission. At first, Lin Yunfei looked unhappy when he heard this, but in the end, he saw that his son's face was full of guilt and he looked resigned.

He couldn't help but feel soft-hearted.

"Tianbao, you child, what can I say about you? You can do anything for Ye Di. We are going to do big things. How can we be so affectionate as sons and daughters?"

"What dad taught me is that the kid also knows that this thing was done improperly, but Xiao Di betrayed the teacher for the sake of the kid and has a deep love for me. The kid can't show it at all. This time, I will treat it as the kid and repay Xiao Di."

And please give me a favor from the Xiaoyao sect, I will never show favoritism if I encounter something like this again."

"With your temper, I don't know what excuse you will have next time. Forget it, who made us the master? Logically speaking, if you do this, I have to punish you both publicly and privately, but now that the war is imminent, I

I don’t want to disturb the morale of the army, so I’ll write this down for now, and we’ll discuss it later when the danger to the prince is resolved.”

"Thank you dad for being lenient." In fact, Luo Tianbao was already prepared to be punished before he said this. Now he couldn't help but feel a little happy when he heard that his dad would not pursue the matter for the time being. After handling the matter, the father and son talked about other things.

Luo Tianbao then resigned. After returning, he remained tight-lipped. He didn't even mention the official document to Ye Di, Dong Yan and others, so most people in the army still didn't know about it.

After another two days, gradually some well-informed people in the military and civilians also learned about the matter, and there was a lot of discussion. Lin Yunfei's strategy was not to respond for the time being, and let everyone talk. At this time, the people sent out
