Chapter 198 Brothers

It is almost late autumn now, and another half a year has passed.

For some reason, Northern Chu became less active again. Perhaps it was because it felt a little jealous. In that battle, not only did Nanzhao suffer a heavy loss, but it even faced a national disaster. Northern Chu itself also felt a little weak because of this.

I heard that it was probably because it went against God's will, so since then, Northern Chu has not been able to develop well.

Especially this year, insect disasters and droughts have occurred frequently, and some people have contracted strange diseases for unknown reasons. The causes and consequences have not yet been fully investigated.

The people of Northern Chu probably also realized this, and had long since given up the joy of winning the war and were working hard to resolve the difficulties they were facing at home.

Qin Agang was still discussing the Yuan Kingdom's harvest in the past few years:

"Unlike Northern Chu and Southern Zhao, in the past few years, apart from the difficulties of internal changes in the Yuan Kingdom, the people outside are living a prosperous life!"

Bai Ye slowly put down the teacup and said:

"Isn't this a typical example of the fisherman gaining from the conflict between the snipe and the clam? I've really taught you a lesson!"

Qin Agang was not annoyed, he chuckled twice and said:

"Why not? I originally thought that Biansha would oppose the Yuan Kingdom, but fortunately, our eldest princess risked her life and finally signed an agreement. That's why we have a few decades of respite!"

"But why didn't you choose to ask Yuan Kingdom for help at that time... maybe Nan Qiao wouldn't have fallen so quickly!"

Bai Ye stood up, and his thoughts came to his mind again:

"We didn't have the time to ask for reinforcements or negotiate. We had no chance to escape. Even if we asked for reinforcements, what would that do? You were also weak at the time. Asking for reinforcements would only make you an enemy of Northern Chu, and you would still be beaten!"

Qin Agang said nothing, and drank a sip of tea as if in tacit agreement:

"What Bei Chu did at that time did have an impact on Nanzhao and other surrounding countries, but everyone knows that after the fight with Nanzhao, they don't have the energy to fight with other countries around them. However, we also know the morals of Bei Chu, so we can only develop our internal affairs in secret!"

Bai Ye put down the teacup and said calmly:

"It's meaningless to discuss this now. Yun Zhuan has a heavy mission. She has to become the Queen of Nanzhao. It would be best if she could return the shame to Beichu so that I can feel relieved!"

After all, this is the kingdom he is protecting, so it is understandable that he thinks this way.

“Chirp—”

There was a little pigeon perched outside the window, with a gray circle around its neck.

Yun Yu'an's eyes lit up; this was the pigeon she was familiar with.

Ever since she and Beimenque reached an agreement, they have never been in contact, and their great undertakings have never been interrupted.

Yun Zhuan opened the letter and said:

"Well... the person that the Northern Chu Emperor favors is not me..."

After Yun Zhuan finished reading it, he placed the note on the table:

"This was sent to me by Beimenque urgently. It was my pigeon. It must be something that happened after I went back."

Qin Agang picked it up and said jokingly:

"As a Yuan countryman, it shouldn't be a problem for me to take a look, right?"

Bai Ye suddenly said:

"You are not a complete Yuan citizen. Have you ever been to Wenshan Mohai before?"

Qin Agang was slightly stunned, then nodded and said, "Indeed, you want to ask about my master, right? My master is Tan Chunfeng."

Tan Chunfeng, Yun Zhuan was a little shocked. She had often heard of this person from storytellers or in some martial arts books.

He is a Taoist priest with great martial arts skills and proficiency in divination. He knows everything about astronomy and geography, and his martial arts are unparalleled. His legend is circulating in the martial arts world, but Yun Zhuan knows very little about it.

Yun Ju'an had never thought that such a powerful person would appear in his ear.

However, some people have rumored that this Taoist priest ascended to heaven a long time ago and left no trace.

Bai Ye was somewhat shocked, then smiled bitterly and said:

"It is true that the flood washed away the Dragon King Temple. The family members no longer recognize each other. I was fortunate enough to receive guidance from Mr. Qin, so I am considered your junior apprentice."

"Indeed!" Qin Agang suddenly realized, "My master seemed to have said that he had also seen a very talented young man and stayed with him for a month to teach him. You are the Bai Guannan he mentioned, right?"

Bai Ye was a little embarrassed: "Indeed, I haven't introduced myself formally yet. My name is Bai Ye, and my nickname is Guannan!"

In the process of becoming a disciple, telling a false name is disrespectful to the master.

Bai Ye was not Tan Chunfeng's last disciple to begin with. He was only told his nickname and not his pseudonym, so he did not break any rules.

How clever!

Yun Ju'an was shocked. He didn't expect that these two people were from the same school. What did he do?

"What about me?"

Bai Ye raised his eyebrows: "That's right, I forgot that you were trained by my senior brother before! No wonder you are so smart!"

"Since I went to Yuan Country and did what I wanted to do, I have been staying by this little girl's side. My master left a message saying that this little girl is the one chosen by destiny, so I haven't wasted my time. It seems that promoting the master's sect is not that important to me now!"

Qin Agang touched Yun Zhuan's head and said with relief: "I always feel that this little girl has the same temper as my master. In this way, the sect can continue!"

Bai Ye's face was still pale. He had lost his family long ago, but now he met old friends in his hometown again, and he had some different feelings in his heart.

Logically speaking, Qin Agang is almost 80 or 90 years old, but his appearance does not seem to have aged completely.

If there really is some miraculous skill, it can really determine one's appearance.

"I was acting crazy and stupid at the time, but luckily this little girl was smart and knew that I was not an ordinary person." Bai Ye coughed lightly, his voice a little hoarse, "I was just following where my roulette wheel pointed at the time, and I wasn't sure if she was the person I was looking for!"

"After all, there are so many people in the world who look alike that I can't confirm it."

Bai Ye finally said:

"If I hadn't seen something unique to Nanzhao on her, I would never have been able to confirm it. Fortunately, I finally found it. My life has not been lived in vain!"

Qin Agang also sighed: "I am also an orphan, and have been raised by my master since I was young, but I never thought that I would have a fellow apprentice in this world. It's just a coincidence that we are assisted by the same person, so there won't be any disputes!"

Yun Zhuan was caught off guard, his voice a little weak:

"So, it seems that my situation is not so good. Why should I be able to work with you two great men?"

If we fail to do it well, wouldn't it be the biggest joke of the world?

Aren’t I the hopeless person?

Yun Ju'an shook his head quickly: "Don't worry, gentlemen. I will do my best and will never let you down!"

Qin Agang nodded.

"That's right, the Duke is still watching you in Yuan State!"

I don't know when the sun came out outside, and there was a white light.
