The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1697

Chapter 1697: 826 Seizing the City! (Part 1)_2

Every day, it’s either chopping vegetables or cooking, and today is no exception.

But today, he is particularly absent-minded.

The Han Family and the Nangong Family have openly rebelled, escaping to the border pass and colluding with the Jin and Liang countries, opening the gates of the border pass.

Even the Princess, a mere woman, must go to war on behalf of the emperor.

The Princess’s martial arts were long abolished, making her no different from ordinary people. No, that’s not right; she is different because ordinary people don’t have several iron nails embedded in their backs.

Troops from all over Shengdu that could be mobilized were gathering at the west city gate, and there was also an army from Qiushan Town heading over.

The deputy general of that army was a regular at Xianhe Building, a guy who talks nonsense, brags, and fawns. He owes a lot of debt at Xianhe Building without any intention of repaying.

Sending someone like him to fight is just handing over heads to the rebels on a silver platter!

The more Zhao Dengfeng thought about it, the angrier he became, chopping with the kitchen knife rapidly!

Chef Zheng, standing nearby, noticed his odd behavior and frowned, asking, "Hey! Chef Zhao, why are you so upset? Who’s annoyed you? Don’t break the knife!"

Zhao Dengfeng angrily replied, "Mind your own business!"

Chef Zheng was startled by the knife Zhao raised and remembered that this man had killed before, so he dared not argue with him and rolled his eyes as he walked away.

The streets were filled with the chaotic sound of horse hooves...

Why is it chaotic? Actually, to ordinary people’s ears, it still sounds quite organized, but Zhao Dengfeng, who came out of the cavalry of the Heifeng Camp, could detect even the slightest disorder in the hoofbeats!

"How are these troops being led? How are these horses trained? With horsemanship like this, the formation will be a mess before the battle even starts!"

Chop chop chop!

I’ll chop!

I’ll chop!

Chop chop chop chop chop... 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Chop your damn head!

I’m done chopping!

Zhao Dengfeng slammed the kitchen knife down on the cutting board and turned away!

...

At the west city gate, the king, along with civil and military officials, was sending off the soldiers of the three armies.

Earlier, there were rumors among the people that the Jin and Liang countries were invading, and the king was so frightened that he suffered a stroke.

The leakage of this news dealt a fatal blow to morale and public confidence.

It was already a war with slim chances of victory, and if the king himself was so terrified, then Dayan would surely fall.

But today, all the people witnessed the spirited emperor.

The emperor made an appearance, dispelling the rumors, and with his actions, he told the world that not only was the king of Dayan not frightened, but he was actually filled with boundless fighting spirit!

The aged but determined king, re-raising the soaring eagle flag of Dayan, rekindled the nearly extinguished confidence in the people’s hearts.
