Shi Zairong: "Thank you for your hard work."
Before Xiao Liang could respond to the hard work, he caught a glimpse of a familiar yet unfamiliar face. Xiao Liang was subconsciously startled and grasped the dagger at his waist: "Master, it's him!"
Shi Zairong chuckled and signaled Xiao Liang not to be too nervous, "By the way, let me introduce you, this is Qingliang King Wang Yanzhou; he is different from the person we saw before."
Upon seeing this, Wang Yanzhou took out the folding fan from his waist, opened it, covered his face with his hands and sighed: "It seems that coming directly to you was the right decision. Otherwise, who knows how many obstacles I would have encountered along the way."
Xiao Liangcai had just received news that reinforcements from Qingliang Valley had arrived, but he hadn't expected Wang Yanzhou to come in person. After learning his true identity, he was somewhat surprised: "...Greetings, Your Highness."
Wang Yanzhou closed his folding fan and gave a light support to the man kneeling on the ground, "Military Advisor Xiao Liang, there's no need to be so polite. We are all family now, there's no need to be like this."
After Xiao Liang stood up, he asked in surprise, "Your Highness, do you know me?"
Wang Yanzhou said that Tang Chen's visits here weren't in vain. Although she was a little face-blind and couldn't remember faces clearly, she still knew several of the town's key figures. She had previously been worried about accidentally injuring someone, so she had personally come to the barracks to describe herself. "I've heard someone mention it. Since the military advisor is here to report on the situation, I wonder if I'd be lucky enough to listen to it?"
Shi Zairong smiled and said, "That's natural. Please read it."
...After Xiao Liang reported the situation in the army, Huangfu Ning, who was waiting at the foot of the city wall, walked up slowly with his hands behind his back. When he saw Wang Yanzhou, the cold look that flashed in his eyes made Wang Yanzhou pay attention.
Although Wang Yanzhou had never met Huangfu Ning before, he was afraid that the only people in the town who could afford such leisure and leisure were from the Huangfu family. He had met Huangfu Bin before, so the man before him should be Huangfu Ning: "Mr. Huangfu is polite."
Huangfu Ning didn't expect Wang Yanzhou to greet him first, and was a little surprised: "Your Highness is too polite. Hong Yu is in Qingliang Valley. Thank you for taking care of him."
Wang Yanzhou smiled and said, "Ms. Hong Yu is of noble status, so I must do my best. Please rest assured, Mr. Huangfu, this matter is only known to me and my wife. Although the Huangfu family is a resource worth utilizing, we are not the kind of people who would easily push a friend into the cusp of trouble."
When Huangfu Ning heard that Wang Yanzhou already knew Hong Yu's true identity, the smile on his face gradually froze. But after hearing his words, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "Your Highness is a gentleman, and we are naturally relieved that Hong Yu is in Qingliang Valley. But Your Highness has come here with great difficulty, and I'm afraid the war will start tomorrow. If it's convenient, I would like to talk to Your Highness tonight."
Huangfu Ning had just deliberately glanced at Wang Yanzhou, firstly because he knew his identity, and secondly because he was very interested in the injuries on his body.
Although Wang Yanzhou didn't know what Huangfu Ning wanted to say, he thought that Huangfu Ning would not do anything out of the ordinary to affect the development of the war. "Since Mr. Huangfu has spoken, I will naturally stay. I think the beds in this town are better than those in the tents."
Seeing that the two of them had almost finished their conversation, Shi Zairong stepped forward and interrupted, "Uncle Ning, why are you here?"
Huangfu Ning smiled and said, "Nothing much. I was just here to check on the situation. I didn't realize the prince had already arrived, so I chatted a little more. I see you guys probably have something important to discuss, so I won't bother you as an outsider."
"Uncle Ning, take care."
After watching Huangfu Ning leave, Wang Yanzhou chatted with him as if he were an ordinary friend, not caring about who was around, and said jokingly: "Looking at the Grand Tutor like this, if you don't know him, you would think he is your father-in-law from Mount Tai."
Shi Zairong held his forehead helplessly and sighed, "Although he's not my father-in-law, he's not much different. I don't have any parents and no relatives, so I have to please my future wife's family, otherwise my future life will be difficult."
Wang Yanzhou couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. He didn't expect Shi Zairong to share the same fate as him. However, it was obvious that he was a little bit worse off than him. "Hahahaha, after the battle is over, I'm going to ask the Grand Tutor for a glass of wedding wine."
Shi Zairong also said, "If Your Majesty could do me the honor of coming to watch the ceremony, I would be more than happy to do so."
...That night, Yun He was in his tent, gazing at the silver armor in a daze, when he heard the sound of light footsteps outside. His tent was in the most secluded part of the camp, and normally, no one would dare disturb him unless there was something going on. "Master, if you're here, please come in. I don't have anything shameful going on here."
After hearing the noise, the people outside the tent did not rush in and asked, "Mr. Yun has already reached the entrance of Qingliang Valley, why didn't he go to take a look?"
After that, Xiahou Qing slowly walked in from outside. Yun He glanced at him and continued to look at the armor in the candlelight with his hands behind his back: "What's so good about it? Pavilion Master, let's get down to business."
When Yun He had seen enough, he turned around and saw Xia Hou Chun following closely behind Xia Hou Qing: "Oh, Lord Xia Hou is here too, what a rare guest."
Xiahou Chun bowed slightly and said, "Mr. Yun."
Yun He chuckled and seemed to have a much better attitude towards Xia Hou Chun than towards Xia Hou Qing. "Don't be polite, just be casual."
Xiahou Jun didn't know why Xiahou Qing brought him here today. He was just a bystander who didn't know the truth. He stood aside and didn't dare to respond casually. After Xiahou Qing heard that he had spoken, he motioned Xiahou Jun to find a place to sit down first, and then said: "Mr. Yun said so, then I won't be polite. Mr. Yun also knows the situation in the army. I am preparing to face Shi Zairong and others tomorrow. The spies reported that Wang Yanzhou has brought people to the vicinity of the town. While there is still time tonight, Mr. Yun, do you want to go to the meeting?"
Yun He said nonchalantly, "There's no rush to meet him now. We'll meet everyone we need to meet tomorrow on the battlefield. Or does the Pavilion Master have other intentions?"
Xiahou Qing explained, "The reinforcements from Northern Desert haven't arrived yet. Even though we have a strong presence here, we probably don't have many people who can be of use."
"Do you want me to be a lobbyist, or do you want me to help the Pavilion Master solve the current obstacles?" Of course, what Yun He said were naturally his guesses, but not all.
