Chapter 396

The guard withdrew the long sword in his hand, then mounted his horse, and galloped toward Jiuzhou Commandery with Fusu.

As early as when Fusu's figure appeared in Jiuzhou Commandery, Qi Huaizhi had already received the news.

When Fusu's figure appeared at the Administrator's mansion in Jiuzhou Commandery, Qi Huaizhi had already been waiting there.

"Young Master."

Qi Huaizhi stood up and bowed to Fusu, then served a cup of tea.

His movements carried the elegance of a scholar.

In normal times, Fusu might have been in the mood to taste this cup of tea.

But ever since choosing to go on the campaign with Old General Wang, Fusu's personality had also become impatient.

"This Prince is in no mood to drink tea with you now."

"I want to take away those provisions by Qi River."

Fusu said straight to the point.

"Young Master, you also know that those provisions were the responsibility of Escort Officer Wang."

"Now that Escort Officer Wang has lost his life because of mountain bandits, those provisions have no escort officer and simply cannot be moved."

A look of entanglement appeared on Qi Huaizhi's face.

Fusu himself was also a scholar, naturally knowing the emphasis these scholars placed on those rules.

"When a general is in the field, he is not bound by the orders of his sovereign."

"Now that the confrontation with the Great Chu remnants is imminent, there is no time to go back and request His Majesty's orders."

"I want to take away these provisions now; I will bear any problems."

Fusu said decisively.

On his face, there was a bit more of Ying Zheng's martial dominance.

Being stared at directly by Fusu's eyes, a bitter smile appeared on Qi Huaizhi's face.

He really had already tried his best.

If it had been anyone else who came today, those provisions would not have been movable.

Unfortunately, it was Young Master Fusu who came.

With Fusu's status, I fear the reason he took back to request His Majesty's orders would not be able to fob him off.

"Administrator, what are you still hesitating about?"

Seeing that Qi Huaizhi still hadn't loosened his mouth, Fusu's face turned cold...

At the same time, a trace of suspicion flashed in his eyes.

Qi Huaizhi felt the probing in Fusu's eyes.

His heart tightened.

"Since the Young Master insists on doing so, then these provisions are handed over to the Young Master."

"I ask the Young Master not to blame me; the subordinate is just following orders."

Qi Huaizhi smoothed things over.

"Then let your men leave directly."

After speaking, Fusu turned and left; he had already wasted enough time here.

He must transport these provisions back before tonight.

They had brought out a full 150,000-strong army this time.

It could be said that such a powerful force could completely conquer Taiyuan Commandery.

But it was precisely because of the commoners in the city of Taiyuan Commandery that they did not choose to attack by force.

Qi Huaizhi soon had one of his men follow Fusu to head immediately to Qi River.

After Fusu's figure left, he immediately gave a wink to another servant.

At this moment, Qi Huaizhi's eyes looked incomparably deep.

"Young Master, I hope you don't blame me."

A light sentence echoed in the room.

He originally thought everyone had already left.

But Qi Huaizhi ignored the person following Fusu.

Lu Bing had originally intended to leave, but heard this low whisper from Qi Huaizhi.

"Interesting."

"It seems this person is not simple either, actually daring to make a move on Fusu."

Lu Bing's eyes flashed with interest.

He didn't expect that he had only left one step late and actually heard this sentence.

It seems Fusu will definitely encounter people lying in ambush there when he heads to Qi River.

Lu Bing originally thought the one who would make a move on Fusu was that man in black from before.

Yet he didn't expect it to be a Great Qin official.

The Great Qin officials are also somewhat complex.

It's just that I don't know if it involves the events of five years ago.

Thinking of this, Lu Bing's eyes turned cold.

This person is making a move on Young Master Fusu.

Could it be that he also made a move on the Young Master five years ago?

Doubts couldn't help but arise in Lu Bing's heart.

However, he didn't think too much, his figure immediately disappeared from here, chasing Fusu's footsteps.

His main goal now was to protect Fusu's safety.
