Chapter 503: Chapter 213: Dragon Egg? Innate Divine Ability! Secret Order Returned to Yunzhong!
After finishing this.
Zhao Feng didn’t concern himself with it any further.
“This second-tier treasure chest indeed has brought an unexpected surprise.”
“Although the Black Dragon’s current attributes aren’t much yet, it has great growth potential.”
“The key is that I’ve gained the divine skill of flying.”
Regarding this, Zhao Feng was very satisfied.
An entire night of cultivation.
Allowed all trusted aides to rest.
The defense of the mansion was handed over to the guards.
The next day!
The sky was just beginning to lighten.
The atmosphere was still dim.
All the trusted aides had already gathered outside the mansion.
The same went for Zhao Feng.
“Master.”
“All five hundred trusted aides are assembled and ready to depart at any moment,” Han Chenyan respectfully said.
“Let’s go.”
Zhao Feng nodded and moved forward on his horse.
“Giddy-up.”
The five hundred trusted aides moved in unison.
They followed Zhao Feng, heading out of Xianyang City.
Meanwhile, on the city wall.
Zhao Feng didn’t notice.
As he left the city.
Two pairs of eyes silently watched him go.
“This young man truly moves with such urgency,” Ying Zheng said with a bit of resignation.
“His character is just like that; once he sets his mind on something, there’s no delay.”
“However.”
“This time, the military merit of defeating Yan should fall to him.”
“For dealing with the Yan Kingdom, perhaps the forces of one military camp, the Wu’an camp, would suffice,” Wang Jian said with a smile.
Ying Zheng nodded, his gaze fixed on the figure growing distant, gradually disappearing in front of Xianyang City.
He sighed softly: “How much longer until I can openly announce his identity to the world?”
“I am growing impatient.”
Upon hearing this.
Wang Jian immediately bowed: “Great King, with only three states remaining, it won’t be long until you can recognize Zhao Feng. If we act rashly now, the court will surely be unstable, and the ministers’ minds will harbor thoughts detrimental to Qin’s national power.”
Seeing how concerned Wang Jian was.
Ying Zheng shook his head with a smile: “I’m just saying.”
“The unification of the world.”
“Is indeed fast approaching.”
“The fall of Qi, Chu, and Yan.”
“That day will surely come.”
…
Yunzhong City!
Inside the military camp.
After Zhao Feng returned to the capital.
The military affairs were naturally handed over to the three main generals for handling.
Following the downfall of Wei, the Wu’an Military Camp had no pressing matters at hand.
In recent months.
The main generals mainly handled rewarding the meritorious soldiers under them based on military achievements.
The Penal Battalion earned merits in battle, resulting in slave records being pardoned and titles being granted.
The Sharp Warriors earned merits in battle, resulting in elevation of titles and promotion of positions.
Additionally, there was the supplementation of soldiers.
Before leaving, Zhao Feng had naturally made all the necessary arrangements, ensuring everything ran smoothly.
In the Wounded Soldier Camp!
It had now been cleared out, and the physicians were left with nothing to do.
They spent their days preparing herbal powders and concoctions.
However, inside the camp.
A stunning woman in a light blue long dress, with her hair tied up, was grinding herbs and preparing powders.
And in front of her.
A man in a black military uniform was assisting her.
He diligently delivered herbs and water.
The physicians inside the Wounded Soldier Camp had long gotten used to this man’s presence.
Zhao Ying felt quite helpless but, despite having said this many times, Li You remained undeterred, as if untroubled by the scorching water.
No matter what she said, he insisted on coming.
“General Li.”
“Although there are currently no battles, if you fail to handle your military duties properly, my brother will certainly reprimand you upon his return.”
Looking at the diligent Li You in front of her, Zhao Ying said with a hint of resignation.
“Is Miss Zhao concerned about me?”
Li You said with a smile on his face.
His gaze towards Zhao Ying was gentle.
Hearing this.
Zhao Ying glanced aside and chose not to respond.
“Miss Zhao, rest assured.”
“Before coming each day, I make sure all military duties are handled.”
“Even if the Shangjiangjun returns, I can report back satisfactorily,” Li You replied with another smile.
“General Li.”
“I know what’s in your heart.”
“Right now, I have no intention of marriage,” Zhao Ying said again.
She had repeated these words many times.
Yet, Li You showed no signs of discouragement, and instead, replied firmly: “That’s alright.”
“I have no such intention for now either, I will wait.”
“Until the day Miss Zhao is willing.”
“In this life, I’ve set my heart on Miss Zhao.”
Looking at Li You’s unwavering demeanor.
Zhao Ying really didn’t know what to say.
But deep in her heart, a wave of unexplainable feelings stirred.
And just then!
“General.”
“General Zhang Han is calling for you to quickly head to the camp.”
“There’s news from the Shangjiangjun.”
A loyal aide of Zhang Han quickly arrived, bowing with clasped fists to report.
“News from the Shangjiangjun?”
Upon hearing this.
Li You’s expression turned serious.
He immediately stood up.
However, looking at Zhao Ying grinding herbs, Li You softly said: “Miss Zhao, I’ll come back tomorrow.”
After saying this.
Without waiting for Zhao Ying to refuse, he immediately turned and left the Wounded Soldier Camp.
Regarding this, Zhao Ying felt even more helpless.
Grinding herbs every day while being trailed by Li You.
Inside the camp.
The main seat was vacant.
Zhang Han, Tu Sui, and Li You sat facing each other.
Wei Quan and other deputy generals were also present.
The area outside the camp was guarded by loyal aides.
The vigilance was intense.
“What news did the Shangjiangjun send?”
Tu Sui asked Zhang Han.
“The message is here, I haven’t opened it yet.”
“Waiting for the two of you to arrive before opening it.”
Zhang Han picked up a small silk scroll from the side.
It was obviously delivered via carrier pigeon.
However, carrier pigeon messages were not common and were unique to Zhao Feng’s Yanting, known only to trusted inner circle members like Zhang Han and Tu Sui.
“Quickly open it and see,” Tu Sui urged.
Without hesitation, Zhang Han opened the silk scroll.
Immediately.
Zhang Han’s expression changed.
“The Yan Kingdom’s envoy attempted to assassinate the Great King,” Zhang Han exclaimed in shock.
Upon hearing this.
The expressions of all the generals inside the hall changed.
“Is the Great King unharmed?” Li You immediately asked.
Without responding, Zhang Han continued reading.
