Then came the news that Fang Fengqi had declared himself emperor in the south, and the country was still called Li. Because of the new ruler, the people of Li were so brave.
Teng Shuchang was both surprised and furious. Fang Fengqi? Wasn't he in the capital?
He couldn't understand this matter at all, so he immediately sent someone back to the capital to inquire about the situation. The news he received shocked him. Not long after Yi Taiwei took over, Fang Zhiyi got drunk again and encountered Fang Fengqi. He beat him up in the street and threatened to drive him out of the capital. And Yi Taiwei actually agreed!
He heard about Fang Zhiyi's severing ties with her son and thought it was a trivial matter, so he immediately had Fang Fengqi kicked out, and Fang Fengqi disappeared.
"Damn it!" Teng Shuchang slammed his fist on the table and cursed, "This scoundrel ruined everything!"
Although he had given Fang Zhiyi some freedom before, he had handled many things through him. To put it bluntly, he never trusted Fang Zhiyi. But when his mortal enemy, Commander Yi, arrived, he actually got involved with Fang Zhiyi, this stray dog.
"I'm going to impeach him!" Teng Shuchang's roar echoed from the camp. "Does he want to kill my southern expeditionary army by spending all his time eating, drinking, and having fun with that puppet?"
The two deputy generals outside the tent suddenly exchanged a meaningful glance.
However, Fang Zhiyi still had a purpose. Teng Shuchang immediately ordered his men to bring Fang Zhiyi to him. He wanted to see if those former emperors dared to lay a hand on them!
To his surprise, the people he sent returned very quickly.
Empty-handed.
"Where is Fang Zhiyi?" Teng Shuchang's eyes blazed with anger.
"Well, Commandant Yi said that Emperor Fang can't leave right now; he has too many matters to handle." The subordinate looked at the ground somewhat awkwardly.
"Damn it! What time is it now? What business do we need him to handle? Have they forgotten that Fang Zhiyi is just a puppet emperor?" He was furious and immediately sent people out again.
But this time, not only did Fang Zhiyi not come, but the people she sent were also detained.
"Are they going to rebel?" Teng Shuchang asked, his eyes wide with anger.
"Reporting to the General... Because he entered the palace carrying a sword, Commandant Yi ordered his men to arrest Deputy General Guo."
"Very well!" Teng Shuchang laughed angrily. "I'll go myself. I want to see just how capable Fang Zhiyi is. How could a king of a fallen kingdom manage to have my general detained!"
He acknowledged that Fang Zhiyi was somewhat capable, but he didn't forget that Fang Zhiyi was just a pawn.
Teng Shuchang temporarily left the front line and rushed to the capital. He barged into the palace, but Fang Zhiyi was not there. He angrily stormed into the bank and found Fang Zhiyi there. She looked at him with a blank expression.
"Fang Zhiyi, shall we come with this general?"
Fang Zhiyi paused for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."
Teng Shuchang was taken aback by Fang Zhiyi's honesty.
But just as he was about to leave with Fang Zhiyi, his horse was stopped.
Yi Taiwei, accompanied by several Mang Dynasty officials, stood smiling in front. Teng Shuchang's anger flared: "Get out of the way! You've delayed military affairs, I'll submit a memorial impeaching you!"
He already had a bad relationship with this Commandant Yi, and now he felt like he could eat him alive.
Grand Commandant Yi, however, remained unhurried and slowly raised the imperial edict in his hand: "General Teng, shall you receive the edict?"
Although Teng Shuchang was extremely unwilling, he had no choice but to dismount and listen obediently.
