After Zhong Sheng left the palace, he returned to his own home and started to arrange funeral affairs. All the property was usually given to his wife and children, and the other half was divided equally among his subordinates who followed him through life and death.

Afterwards, he locked himself in the room, quietly waiting to die.

It is said that once a person fulfills his obsession, he will die. Isn't that what the emperor does?

Opening his eyes again, Zhong Sheng found himself in a place where birds were singing and flowers were fragrant.

"This is the underworld, it's quite beautiful."

"Where is the Naihe Bridge? I have to ask if I can not drink Mengpo soup. I don't want to forget my grandfather."

"Pfft!" In the pavilion not far away, Tang Guo put his chin in one hand and laughed, "Are all your subordinates living like this to make jokes for others?"

Yan Jinyu fed Tang Guo fruit with one hand, while holding her hand with the other hand and refused to let go.

"I made you laugh."

Zhong Sheng was dumbfounded, and raised his hand to pinch his face severely.

"hiss!"

Grinning in pain.

"It hurts, why does it hurt?"

He got up, looked around, found the shadow on the ground, looked up at Yan Jinyu and Tang Guo in the pavilion, "I'm not dead?"

Yan Jinyu raised his hand to his forehead, he really didn't expect that after decades, Zhong Sheng would still have such a nonchalant temperament.

"I'm not dead, I'm really not dead, hehehe..." Zhong Sheng was still on the spot, laughing silly.

Yan Jinyu's face turned dark, "Shut up, come here!"

"oh."

Zhong Sheng came over obediently, and habitually stood three steps away from Yan Jinyu.

"Tell me about the current situation of Yan Jiajun."

Zhong Sheng closed his mouth tightly, looked at Yan Jinyu, and didn't say a word for a long time.

Yan Jinyu's eyes darkened, "Are you dumb?"

Zhong Sheng pointed to his mouth with an aggrieved expression.

Yan Jinyu frowned, and was about to scold him when Tang Guo patted him on the shoulder, "Didn't you tell him to shut up just now?"

After finishing speaking, she narrowed her eyes and looked at Zhong Sheng, "You must answer the questions I ask next, and you must not lie to me, otherwise, I will make it impossible for you to speak again in this life, and you will have to watch it in the next life and the next life." Not to him."

Zhong Sheng looked at Yan Jinyu in the direction of Tang Guo's finger, with a cleverness on his body, "You ask, I'll tell you."

"How many soldiers and horses does the Yan family army have now?"

"Eighty-three thousand seven hundred and twenty-two people, and 12,100 horses."

Yan Jinyu frowned even deeper, and Tang Guo continued to ask, "Where are they stationed?"

"Chuzhou has 20,000 horses, Ningzhou has 10,000 horses, Huizhou has 20,000 horses, and Yanzhou has 30,000 horses."

Yan Jinyu slammed the table, "How long has this defense been?"

Zhong Sheng shivered in fright, "Twenty years."

"The troops have been scattered for twenty years? Hehe, why, are you planning to set up a small group by yourself and stand on your own?" Yan Jinyu finally understood that when he came back this time, there were only old and weak soldiers like Zhong Sheng in the capital.

"I gave the soldier talisman to Chu Weiran, so why didn't he do anything?"

Zhong Sheng sighed, "My lord, regarding the matter of Yan's army, the former emperor really did his best, but he paid too much attention to old feelings and trusted the soldiers you left behind. By the time he discovered the problem, it was too late. The courtiers played to reorganize the Yan family's army and revoked their titles, but they were all rejected by the late emperor, so..."

"Pedantic!"

Yan Jinyu shook her head.

Li Ge on the side smiled, "You valued him back then, didn't you let him inherit the throne because he valued love and righteousness, and was not greedy for power? If the title of the Yan family army is revoked, the military power will truly return to the emperor's hands. The throne is really secure, but he still cares about you, and he has been letting some people in the Yan family army let their ambitions grow up little by little."
