C562 Dividing the Loot
C562 Dividing the Loot
Zhou Fengmiao and Qi Yulong looked at each other and revealed a wicked smile. It made Yang Xuan wonder if these two had colluded with each other to split the loot.
After everyone had a rest, Yang Xuan followed Zhou Fengmiao to his tent.
"Xuan, are you curious why I did that on the city wall today?"
Zhou Fengmiao asked when he saw that Yang Xuan was still thinking about what had just happened.
Yang Xuan said respectfully, "Master must have his own thoughts about what he did. I don't dare to make wild guesses."
Zhou Fengmiao sighed and said, "I know you are capable, but this is the military camp. It would be fine if one or two people were like this, but if everyone was like you, messing around... Wouldn't it be chaotic? Furthermore, Qi Yulong had always been dissatisfied with you, and you've also benefited from it. But he suffered a loss. If I don't do this... There will inevitably be some estrangement between the two of you. "
"Yes, your disciple understands."
Yang Xuan said with a smile. In fact, with his intelligence, how could he not guess what Zhou Fengmiao was thinking? That was why he was so generous when he was on the city wall.
"Three thousand warhorses. I will give them to Tiger Army and Greedy Wolf Army. As for the rest of the matters, you can do it yourself! Although letting you wield the weapon is a way for you to train yourself, the ways of the world is also a part of training. "
Zhou Fengmiao said earnestly. Yang Xuan nodded his head repeatedly and remembered it in his heart.
Although he had been beaten up by a bunch of rich men, he could clearly feel the change in attitude of everyone in the army towards Yang Xuan.
The people of Carduus Army didn't need to be mentioned. Regarding Yang Xuan's miraculous strategy, they had already prostrated themselves on the ground and were almost shocked to the core.
Qi Yulong, Tan Lang, and a few others, after receiving Yang Xuan's 1,500 war horses and a bunch of small gifts, almost had the intention of worshipping Yang Xuan as their landlord.
Yang Xuan, who had just broken through to the Mid Fifth Stage two days ago, was also surprised to find that his cultivation base was faintly approaching the Mid Fifth Stage Perfection.
In short, Yang Xuan's popularity in Profound Gate Pass was getting higher and higher. Whether it was the people of Carduus Army or not, they all knew this young and powerful General Yang, who was very approachable and used his army like a god.
After Yang Xuan's operation, the Barbarian Army had suffered a great loss. They retreated twenty miles away from the camp and hid in the Fallen Leaf Plains.
In the blink of an eye, more than half of the year that they had agreed to meet with Xu Ruxian had passed.
It was late autumn.
During this half year, the old ancestor of Yuh Family had come to Profound Gate Pass. Apart from giving Yuh Qingcheng some clothes, he had also helped Yuh Qingcheng and Yang Xuan solve many problems regarding cultivation.
The relationship between Yuh Qingcheng and Yang Xuan was getting closer and closer. Apart from the fact that they had not taken a step forward, the other lovers had also finished what they needed to do.
After Yang Xuan took control of the Carduus Army, under his command and the cooperation of the other two armies, the Barbarian Clan suffered a great loss.
The army of five hundred thousand that the Barbarian Clan had prepared to invade the Great Wei had shrunk to around three hundred thousand. The two countries had been fighting for decades, and this was the first time the Barbarian Clan had suffered such a huge loss.
However, what Yang Xuan didn't know was that a conspiracy was brewing in the dark with him at the center. Currently, the peaceful relationship between the Barbarian Clan and the Great Wei was just the last calm before the arrival of Shan Yu.
In a remote courtyard in the capital.
The courtyard was very clean and quiet.
In the courtyard, there were three old men and a middle-aged man sitting on a square table.
On the table were many small square blocks that were three fingers long and two fingers wide. The square blocks were neither too big nor too small. They were all carved from good limestone.
"Prime Minister, what kind of new toy did you make?"
An old man with white hair and white beard picked up a small cube and looked around, but he didn't see anything special about it.
One side of the cube was painted with red paint, and the other side was painted with white paint. On the side that was painted with white paint, the word "eighty thousand" was carved.
As for the other squares, there were similar words or strange patterns on them.
"This is a popular pastime in the Shu Country in the south. It's called mahjong. I have nothing to do, so I carved one for myself to play with. This mahjong table requires four people. I have nothing to do. So I called the three of you over."
A graceful middle-aged man carried a bowl of porridge out of the room and said with a smile.
If someone accidentally barged into this courtyard, it was likely that they would not be able to tell that the people in front of them who were bragging and farting were actually the people standing at the peak of the Great Wei.
"Elder Zhou, after you lost to me in chess last time, you were unwilling to come to my courtyard again. I will not expose you in public. Today, I brought you here because I want everyone to get together to change their mood."
The graceful man finished the white porridge in his bowl in one breath and said to one of the elders with a smile.
"Hmph."
The old man coldly snorted, but he had no way to refute.
"Old Zhou is just a bad chess mess. What's the point of you asking him to play chess with you?"
Another sage-like old man spoke, but he was madly attacking the old man sitting at the same table as him.
On the other side, an old man chuckled as he looked at the few people bickering in front of him, but he did not participate in the fight between Old Zhou and Elder Yuh.
The old man wore very plain clothes, but they were the most ordinary clothes. However, a dignified aura was emitted from his body, and one could see it from the edge of his collar. The clothes inside the old man's clothes were actually embroidered with gold, rolling clouds, and dragon marks.
This kind of craftsmanship usually only appeared in the Jiangnan Weaving Center. If someone secretly made this kind of patterned clothes and was discovered, they could be considered as conspiring to usurp the throne. It was one of the most severe crimes in the Great Wei's Lu Li Calendar.
"Elder Yuh's precious granddaughter is not by my side. My courtyard seems to be lacking in popularity."
The graceful middle-aged man sat down, frowned slightly, and said in a somewhat depressed manner.
"Prime minister Xu, I haven't said anything about you! My precious granddaughter was kidnapped not long after she let you go."
Elder Yuh angrily stared at the man he called prime minister Xu.
"You have to ask Elder Zhou about this. The person who kidnapped your granddaughter is also half of his grand disciple."
After briefly explaining the rules of mahjong cards to them, they began the reshuffle.
The few people sitting in the courtyard were the most stunning geniuses of the Great Wei in the past hundred years. One of them represented the Zhou family, which was in charge of the State Hall, while the other one represented the Zhou family. He was the Yuh Family who was in charge of astronomy and calendar. As for these few people who were at the peak of Great Wei, none of them were willing to take the initiative to provoke them, his identity was obvious.
"Why are you asking me? Go and find trouble with Old Devil Yang. That is his grandson."
