Chapter 1386: Impostors
"No rush, keep it ready. But you said these things have unstable tempers; can they really listen to you?"
"Barely, anyway, they can be used, so don't have too high requirements." Dong Rui touched his belly; he was really hungry. "By the way, did Xue Zongwu fall for it?"
"Quite a few mines and markets have received requests from the Shuangxi government office to resubmit the accounts of the past five years, sparking a chorus of complaints." This was just what the Yangshan Chamber of Commerce had inquired about; who knows how many there were that hadn't been inquired about. "It seems Xue Zongwu has already come to his senses and started to suspect that Qingyang wants to deal with him. Heh, there are still clear-headed people around him."
That's good; it saves him subsequent arrangements.
"Actually, he didn't suspect wrongly; Qingyang will clean him up sooner or later. It's just that we advanced this progress. If all the account books were burned, Xue Zongwu might break the jar; leaving him half, he thinks there's a chance to balance the accounts, so he will be busy with this for the next few days and might not think about anything else."
As soon as the words fell, with a "crash," the muffled thunder that had been holding back for an unknown amount of time finally exploded, and the rainstorm followed.
He Lingchuan had just jumped off the railing when the stairs rang, and Jiang Lishui ran up to report: "Big Proprietor, Special Envoy Fan Shuang is here."
Fan Shuang returned from visiting other leaders of the Allied forces. According to the agreement, He Lingchuan was to travel to the Kingdom of Yao with him.
He Lingchuan asked Jiang Lishui: "Are the birthday gifts for the King of Yao prepared?"
"Prepared, thirteen boxes of various sizes. After Special Envoy Fan inspects them, they will be sealed." As long as the King of Yao's special envoy checks and passes them, there will be no need to break the seals when entering the pass and the country later.
"Prepare three more, the largest size." He Lingchuan gave instructions, "As for the gifts to be packed, I will pick them personally."
"Yes." Jiang Lishui didn't ask much and went downstairs to handle it.
"Three boxes?" Dong Rui thought about it and gave a long "Oh," understanding.
He Lingchuan smiled: "We are going to send a few more big gifts to the Kingdom of Yao; there's no harm in having too many gifts."
He had just gone downstairs when a figure flashed outside the door, and Wanqi Liang came.
Before going on a long journey, there were always many things, one after another.
Wanqi Liang saw He Lingchuan, and his back was always straight: "My lord!"
"Hmm, what's the situation?"
"News came from the northeast that the leader of the Mubang tribe publicly claimed that he is the Great Emperor of the Nine Netherworlds who has been famous recently, and the tribesmen under him are the Black Armor Army that comes and goes like the wind!" Wanqi Liang tried to be as objective as possible when reporting the situation, but the corners of his mouth drooped; he was unhappy.
"This news is exceptionally sensational in the northeast. I heard that commoners nearby have already rushed to the territory of the Mubang tribe, wanting to see the true face of the Great Emperor of the Nine Netherworlds."
So many evil people were killed by them, and it was their blood and sweat that flowed, yet those shameless bastards of the Mubang tribe dared to impersonate their Black Armor Army with just a mouth?
"Oh?" He Lingchuan wasn't angry, just feeling very novel, "Finally, there is one."
Impersonating the name of the Great Emperor of the Nine Netherworlds and the Black Armor Army has many benefits; being admired by all people and feared by the surroundings can get more chips for one's own tribe.
"What finally there is one." Dong Rui was also unhappy, saying unpleasantly, "The two men in black in Shuangxi, aren't they impersonators? If there are two fakes, there could be twenty, two hundred!"
"Mubang tribe? Seems to be a warlike tribe too." He Lingchuan asked Wanqi Liang, "They dare to call themselves the Black Armor Army; they should have some reliance, right?"
"They fought a battle with Zhao Guangzhi last year to compete for territory, and Zhao Guangzhi was defeated."
"Just like that?"
"Then..." Wanqi Liang coughed, "Three or four of the evil people killed by the Black Armor Army recently were killed around their territory."
He Lingchuan thought for a while and smiled: "Good, no problem."
Wanqi Liang waited, but saw He Lingchuan turn to leave, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "My lord, if you intend to teach them a lesson, you must count me in."
"Teach them a lesson?" He Lingchuan looked at him, "You really want to go?"
"These people impersonate our identity, take credit for our work, and are still proud of it!" Wanqi Liang gritted his teeth, "I can't stand that face!"
"Did you see it?"
"I didn't... but we have people in the tavern hearing Mubang tribesmen drinking and bragging, telling the experience of killing evil people vividly, as if they really did it!" Damn it, one mouth is either copying or editing, "The sons of those bastards must not have an anus!"
He Lingchuan didn't answer, just stared at him.
Wanqi Liang was righteous at first, but being stared at like this, his anger quickly passed, and he couldn't help but lower his head.
He Lingchuan then patted him on the shoulder: "Small intolerance will mess up big plans; your temper still needs to be polished."
This kid's temper had already improved compared to when he first left the Yangshan Archipelago.
"Yes." This problem of his own impulsiveness was hard to change.
He Lingchuan added: "The Mubang tribe won't be proud for long; just wait and see."
Wanqi Liang smiled, and his voice became louder: "Yes!"
He now admired his lord to the point of prostration; the Great Emperor of the Nine Netherworlds said that the Mubang tribe wouldn't be able to jump for long, so they must be grasshoppers after autumn; there was no need to doubt.
Watching Wanqi Liang's back leave, Dong Rui on the side stretched: "Interesting, I didn't see you do anything to him, yet this kid doesn't even obey Wanqi Feng, only obeying you."
He Lingchuan smiled without a word. Sometimes, teaching by example is more important than teaching by words.
Dong Rui asked him again: "You didn't plan to find the Mubang tribe?"
"No." Where would he have the time? He was about to visit the Kingdom of Yao.
Besides, He Lingchuan knew very well that he was facing many troubles; things are divided into priorities, and like the Mubang tribe, which is irrelevant, it is put aside, and it is not necessarily necessary to solve it himself.
"I told you earlier, beware of fakes! We work hard, others reap the benefits, fame and fortune, tsk!" Actually, Dong Rui was also unbalanced in his heart, "Or should I work hard and run a trip for you in these two days to teach them a lesson?"
He Lingchuan shook his head: "No need."
"Oh? Do you have any tricks? Tell me about it."
"No."
Dong Rui was dissatisfied: "Hey, you're not kind, hiding even from me?"
He Lingchuan would let go of the impostors who stole his name? He didn't quite believe it. Leaving it alone was not He Lingchuan's style.
"Someone will teach them a lesson for us; we can just watch the fun from the sidelines." He Lingchuan smiled, "The name of the Great Emperor of the Nine Netherworlds and the Black Armor Army is a double-edged sword. The Mubang tribe cannot just enjoy the benefits without bearing the consequences."
He Lingchuan himself didn't want to bear those consequences, otherwise, why would he need to wear a mask and cover his identity? "Since they dare to impersonate recklessly, they will soon taste the evil consequences."
