Chapter 119 - Chengdu

At this moment, in the distant Chengdu Mansion, it was a rainy day!

's residence welcomed guests, and Xuan Fu from Sichuan led Cao Rong to his home!

The two of them sat in the hall, eating and drinking. Not long later, both of them were drunk!

"Li Gang is no longer the Prime Minister. Before long, the position of Prime Minister will belong to Father! At that time, the position of Privy Envoys would be vacant! Damn it, if I was in Middle Han Area, this Privy Envoys would never be able to escape me! But now, this Privy Envoys is most likely going to belong to Big Brother! " Zhe Yanzhi said somewhat hatefully.

Ever since his last attempt at blocking the Nvzhen failed, he had fallen out of favor in front of his father! Zhe Keqiu thought that he was reckless, so she sent him to Chengdu, Sichuan Province.

At this moment, the more Zhe Yanzhi thought about it, the more depressed he became, thus he started to drink even more wine!

Cao Rong who was at the side did not speak either! Cao Rong's sister had married Zhe Yanwen, so naturally, Cao Rong and Zhe Yanwen's relationship had grown closer. Naturally, Cao Rong wanted Zhe Yanwen to sit in the position of the Privy Envoys!

"Father is really muddleheaded, to think that he would want to marry his younger sister to that unconscious monarch! This is ridiculous to the extreme! " After a while, Zhe Yanzhi scolded again.

"Second Young Master, Master Fold has his reasons for marrying the young lady to His Majesty! At that time, Master Fold would be His Majesty's father-in-law, the Secretary of State! Right now, His Majesty is only eleven or twelve years old, so he is unable to personally take care of the country's affairs. Since His Majesty does not have any other relatives, then only the Master Fold can take care of the country's affairs for him! This way, even if the Master Fold has the most power, it would still be perfectly justifiable. The people of the world will not say anything! " Cao Rong said.

"Humph!" The little Emperor, that Stupid Monarch, is not worthy of my sister at all! " Zhe Yanzhi said.

Regarding this sentence, Cao Rong was unusually in favor of it! From Cao Rong's point of view, Zhao Chen was indeed extremely muddleheaded. How could an emperor who only knew how to be a carpenter everyday possibly be worthy of the renowned geniuses and beauties of the Northwest? Zheyue Ru's reputation in the Northwest was extremely great. All the noble families in the Northwest knew that the young miss of the Zhuo Family was born with a natural beauty, was rich in knowledge, and was a virtuous and virtuous person.

"Master Cao, what do you think of Li Ruoshui? When father sent us to Sichuan, he wanted us to keep an eye on Li Ruoshui! " Zhe Yanzhi said again.

"Li Ruoshui is just a scholar, he has no sense of the way! For the better part of half a year, he had spent most of his time trying to pacify the people, or repairing the water conservancy. How laughable! In this chaotic world, I can't believe he has such thoughts! " Cao Rong ridiculed.

"That's right. He's just a scholar without any good points!" Zhe Yanzhi nodded.

"However, second Young Master, we have to be wary of Wu Jie and Yue Shan!" Cao Rong said.

"What is there to be wary of about these two people?" The two of them were originally only deputy generals of the Jing Road, so their statuses were low! After that, they had relied on their good luck to beat back the Nvzhen! In fact, the two of them do not have any ability, so I have never placed them in my eyes! " Zhe Yanzhi said in disdain.

"Second Young Master should still be a little careful!" Cao Rong said.

From Cao Rong's point of view, Wu Jie definitely had some ability! As for Zhe Yanzhi, he was a complete idiot! Zhe Yanzhi brought 50,000 people to block Jin Wushu, but they were unable to withstand a single blow from Jin Wushu. In the end, Zhe Yanzhi fled in panic, and only after that did Zhe Yanzhi return to the Middle Han Area! Zhe Yanzhi boasted shamelessly, so he had no choice but to remind Zhe Yanzhi!

"They only have five thousand men and horses under their command. I have sixty thousand men and horses under my command, can't I stop them?" Zhe Yanzhi said in disdain.

"Second Young Master, according to what I know, these two are also recruiting soldiers in Yuzhou! I'm afraid they have ten or twenty thousand men under their command now! " Cao Rong said.

"Ten or twenty thousand soldiers and horses?" That's nothing! I'll write to my father in a few days and ask him to send me more troops! If we can't do it, we'll just send troops over and destroy them! " Zhe Yanzhi said.

"You can't!" Cao Rong anxiously said.

"Why not?" Zhe Yanzhi said.

"It's the new year now, so the second young master has to properly celebrate the new year. How can he spend his energy on them?" Cao Rong said.

"Hahahaha, you're right! I am not willing to waste my time and energy on them. Zhe Yanzhi laughed loudly.

During this period of time, he had just found a few exceptional beauties and hung out with them everyday. He really did not have time and energy to take care of Wu Jie!

Cao Rong, on the other hand, secretly wiped the cold sweat off his forehead! In Cao Rong's opinion, Zhe Yanzhi did not have much ability, he could only rely on Zhe Yanzhi to defend Sichuan. However, he still had to rely on Wu Jie to defend Sichuan, how could he let Zhe Yanzhi attack Wu Jie?

Seeing that Zhe Yanzhi was not going to bring up this matter, Cao Rong also calmed down!

"In another year, I want to think of a way to restrict Wu Jie! If these two can be used by the Master Fold, that would be for the best! " Cao Rong drank a cup of wine and thought to himself.

Cao Rong and Zhe Yanzhi were drinking wine here, and in Li Ruoshui's residence three kilometers away from here, Li Ruoshui had received a distinguished guest today!

Cao Rong and Zhe Yanzhi would never have thought that Wu Jie was currently in Li Ruoshui's home!

Other than Wu Jie and Li Ruoshui, there was no one else in the room!

The rain kept falling in, and the lights in the room were dim and yellow. The two of them were discussing something important!

"Master Li, to be honest, I have twenty thousand men under my command!" It's just that most of them are new recruits, so they need to be properly trained! " Wu Jie said.

"Twenty thousand soldiers and horses, that's already quite good! But to deal with Zhe Keqiu is still too lacking! " Li Ruoshui said.

"Zhe Keqiu's forces are strong, it is impossible to deal with him! However, I can still deal with this trash, Zhe Yanzhi! " Wu Jie said.

"The general isn't lying to me?" Li Ruoshui said somewhat disbelievingly.

In Li Ruoshui's opinion, Wu Jie's forces were still too little, while Zhe Yanzhi's army had a total of sixty thousand troops guarding various places in Sichuan, how could he possibly fight Zhe Yanzhi?

"Of course I'm not lying!" Actually I don't need too much troops, just ten thousand of them, and I can take down Zhe Yanzhi! The remaining ten thousand people are enough to go north and occupy the Sword Gate Pass, cutting off contact between the Chuan Shu and the Middle Han Area so that the Chuan Shu and the Middle Han Area's Home Breaker cannot support each other! " Wu Jie said.

"Unfortunately, even if the connection between the two places is severed, so what? In the end, His Majesty is in the Middle Han Area, in the hands of Zhe Keqiu! " Li Ruoshui said.

In fact, when they just arrived in Sichuan, Wu Jie and Li Ruoshui had already contacted each other, and the two of them had already promised to be loyal to Zhao Chen! In this period of time, the two of them had also been working hard for the "Qing Monarch's faction"!

"I heard that Master Li Gang has already been demoted to Chen Cang County, I am prepared to personally go there to pay a visit to Master Li and see what arrangements Master Li has!" After a while, Wu Jie said.

"I'm afraid it will be difficult to meet His Majesty!" Li Ruoshui said.

"No matter what, I have to give it a try!" Wu Jie said.

Late that night, Wu Jie did not rest. He bade farewell to Li Ruoshui and actually headed towards the north alone. The rain was heavy, but he did not pay attention to it. He was a peerless general, and his martial arts cultivation was exceptionally powerful! A mere rain was nothing!

That night, within the Imperial Palace, Zhao Chen fell asleep with complex emotions!

Today in the Preservation Hall, he had received a great humiliation! At that time, his mood was already calm, but now it was churning again!

"Li Gang, Yue Fei, Wang Gui, Zhang Xian, Wu Jie, Wu Lin, Wu Lin, these people are all peerless figures! When it came to the fame of later generations, every single one of them surpassed Zhe Keqiu! With so many of them, could they not fight against just one Zhe Keqiu? He would definitely be able to fight it out! What I need is to endure and numb Zhe Keqiu, and then wait for them to contact me, and then find a good opportunity! I still have an important figure like Kang An by my side as a spy, when the time comes, I will definitely be able to kill Zhe Keqiu, without any suspense! " Zhao Chen secretly comforted himself!

However, in the middle of the night, Zhao Chen still found it hard to calm down and woke up.

Thus, he sat up and began to meditate! It was not until dawn that he got out of bed and headed out!
