Chapter 1560B – Imperial Decree

The Generals guarding the mine were eager to see General Jinwu coming out of his closed-door meditation. They did not dare to delay the matter any longer, and several guards hurried over to meet him.

“Greetings, General!”

They kneeled on the ground to salute Qin Yu respectfully.

Qin Yu nodded his head and said, “Get up. During this period while I was in closed-door meditation, was everything alright?”

“General, everything in the mine is stable and there have not been any mistakes.” After restoring his human body, he still did not live the carefree life that he imagined. Big Head Wang smiled bitterly as he continued, “However, an imperial decree has come from the imperial capital. The messenger has already been waiting for a long time.”

Between the words, there was a reminder.

Qin Yu’s eyes flashed slightly and he seemed to be pondering as he said, “I got it.”

On the way back, because Rourou suddenly became ‘heavier’, their journey was unexpectedly delayed for a month.

Thinking about it, he must have left the many people who were eagerly waiting to meet him in an unlucky situation.

Big Head Wang cursed at his nephew at every turn, but of course he did not dare to speak like that to the General. The bitter smile on his face became even more apparent.

“General, the messengers represent His Majesty. It was fine when you were still in closed-door meditation; cultivation is the most valued thing in the world anyway, so no one can find fault with you. However, since you have come out of closed-door meditation now, you should invite the messengers to come and read out the imperial decree as soon as possible so that the people at the imperial capital do not misunderstand your intentions.”

The other low-ranked Generals nodded their heads earnestly too.

Qin Yu looked at their faces that were filled with worry, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. “Okay, send the messengers in at once.”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a noise outside that quickly approached. Then, the door was pushed open harshly.

The several guards looked helpless and flustered as they hurriedly knelt down, “General, the messengers heard that you had come out from closed-door meditation and insisted on coming to see you. We were unable to stop them, please punish us!”

Amidst the crowd, a pale-looking young eunuch walked over and said in a shrill voice, “We have come to the mine and have been waiting for more than a month. When we heard that General Jinwu had come out from his closed-door meditation, we rushed over to visit him. After all, we are bringing His Majesty’s imperial decree, so we do not dare to delay this matter any longer. Otherwise, we might be beheaded.”

Obviously, there was another meaning between his words. The eunuch seemed to be talking about himself, but he was actually referring to Qin Yu.

Qin Yu had only entered the Imperial Palace a few times. He had never seen this young eunuch before; this eunuch was probably not an important character in the Imperial Palace. Otherwise, he would not have dared to show such an attitude towards Qin Yu.

For the West Desolate King to send such a blind and minor character to the West Border to give a decree, what kind of news was it going to be?

As he pondered it, Qin Yu said lightly, “I prioritize military affairs – I’m sure His Majesty will not blame me if he learns of this.”

Although he was sitting, he glanced condescendingly at the eunuch, “Since you are going to announce the decree, do it now then.”

The young eunuch’s face turned red and he could feel the contempt in Qin Yu’s attitude. He gritted his teeth and took out the yellow imperial decree before announcing, “General Jinwu, receive His Majesty’s decree!”

Qin Yu got up, cupped his hands, and said in a low voice, “Present!”

Like thunder, his voice exploded in the room!

The high-ranked Generals in the army did not have to kowtow when receiving an imperial decree. This was the courtesy that the Imperial Clan had always shown to the military.

With Qin Yu’s current status as the third-ranked officer in the West Border Army, he was in fact a Great General.

Furthermore, the mine was now Qin Yu’s foundation where he was in control of more than 100,000 troops!

The young eunuch’s face changed, and his mind that was filled with anger started to calm down little by little. Suddenly, he felt a chill down his spine.

The imperial military’s strength was highly regarded by important members in the Imperial Palace. He had learnt this after spending many years in the palace.

Not to mention that he was a mere eunuch who had been favored recently. He seemed to be well-regarded, but it was superficial.

Thinking of this, and then thinking of the favored imperial concubine who backed him, that young eunuch bit his lip until there was a bloody smell from between his teeth. His eyes were full of hatred as he glanced at the two guards who escorted him here. He finally came to his senses, and realized that he had actually been sent here as a scapegoat.

At any rate, with the widespread politics in the Imperial Palace, only people who took risks could climb up the ranks. These people were naturally going to be more outstanding than others.

Keeping his composure, the young eunuch read out the imperial decree which contained a lot of cumbersome wording. The brief summary was that Qin Yu had been summoned to return to the imperial capital to report his duties.

“This subject receives the decree!” Qin Yu took the yellow scroll with both hands, a calm expression on his face. He naturally would not panic about what he had already expected to happen.

The young eunuch had a smile on his face, “General Jinwu, you don’t have to be too polite. We know that you have worked hard during your closed-door meditation, but His Majesty has urged this matter many times. If not, we would not have barged in like this. I hope you forgive us.”

Qin Yu replied indifferently, “You’re taking this too seriously. After I go back to the main camp and let Marshal Wu know about this, I will leave for the imperial capital immediately.”

The young eunuch nodded his head repeatedly with approval.

Qin Yu cupped his hands and said, “I won’t send you off.”

The young eunuch’s smile looked slightly stiff as he led the guards away with him. Compared to the aggressiveness that he had when he first came, obviously he looked a lot more frightened.

Leaving the residence, the young eunuch walked at the forefront. He suddenly stopped and turned to look at the two guards with resentment, “Such good methods the both of you have! You two lured me in just like that!”

He thought of General Jinwu’s attitude when he was receiving the decree earlier, and he thought again about the strange situation the imperial capital was in now. He started to panic even more, and he looked at the two guards with an even colder gaze.

“What are you saying? We are just deputy messengers who accompanied you here to read the decree to summon General Jinwu to the imperial capital.”

“That’s right, we don’t understand what you’re saying.”

The two guards sang in harmony, claiming to be treated unjustly, but they did not cover up the calm expressions in their eyes.

The young eunuch’s expression changed a bit. He took a deep breath and nodded without smiling, “The two of you are right. I must have been confused and said things that I shouldn’t have, I hope the both of you do not mind.”

He then turned to leave and his face quickly returned to calm. After all, General Jinwu was a top figure.

The two guards behind him frowned at the same time, looked at each other, and then regained their composure again. This little brat was learning very fast.

If he was given some time, he would definitely have a promising future. However, some people were doomed from the beginning to not have a future at all.

……

General Jinwu arrived at the West Border Army camp to visit Marshal Wu.

Everything went well. Wu Tongtian, who stamped his seal on Ye Sangdu’s military report, was full of smiles as he talked to Qin Yu without the slightest hint of embarrassment.

After talking a bit about matters regarding the Barbarian Clan and some instances of small talk, Qin Yu got up and excused himself.

Wu Tongtian smiled and said, “As the person in charge who leads the West Border Army, since some matters have been placed in front of us, we have no choice but to intervene. However, thinking about it, I’m sure there will be no trouble when General Jinwu goes to the imperial capital this time…there might even be another opportunity.”

Qin Yu cupped his hands, “I hope the Marshal’s auspicious words come true.”

Packing up his tent to leave, the convoy of messengers were already waiting for him outside the West Border Army camp.

Qin Yu boarded the carriage and set off without any pause.

Rourou looked out the window with a bored face, and when Qin Yu came in, she raised her head and glared at him.

“Rushing here and there, we’re always rushing. It was my one chance to have a good vacation, but now it’s being ruined by you!”

Qin Yu thought to himself, ‘I’m not the one who asked you to come along’. However, he could not say this out loud no matter what.

With Rourou around, his safety was guaranteed…perfect!

She wanted to stay, and Qin Yu also had to think of ways to make her stay by his side.

“Cough! The West Border Army camp is in such an isolated place. When we reach the West Desolate’s imperial capital, you will see how prosperous the place is. You won’t be disappointed.”

Rourou thought about it for a while before she humphed. However, deep in her eyes, there was a hint of anticipation.

With a smile, Qin Yu turned around and sat down. He tapped his knees slightly and he pondered over Wu Tongtian’s words.

With his status, he would be ambitious. Since he said that, he had probably obtained some secret information in advance.

There should not be much danger waiting for him this time at the imperial capital, but accidents were always bound to happen. As such, he reminded himself to be cautious no matter what.

In addition, if there was a chance, he should do some homework in advance to see if he could achieve what he previously thought.

If it was possible, hehe, the West Desolate had probably dug a big hole for themselves!
