Chapter 354

After everyone arrived at the courtyard of the Prefect's Residence, Liu Bian looked at the open space in front of him and said to the group:

"Such a large courtyard is enough to store ten tons of corn seeds."

After speaking, he ignored the excited crowd and said to the system in his heart:

"System, help me take out ten tons of corn seeds!"

After speaking, Liu Bian stretched out his right hand and waved it toward the courtyard in front of him.

As Liu Bian waved his hand, a pile of golden corn appeared out of thin air in the empty courtyard.

Watching this magical scene, everyone trembled with excitement.

Even Guo Jia, Jia Xu, and the others, who had seen it more than once, could not help but be shocked every time they saw this scene.

Not to mention Xu Rong, who was seeing this scene for the first time.

At this moment, Xu Rong was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, muttering to himself:

"This is impossible..."

"What, you're already scared by this? Let me tell you, this is just the beginning! You haven't truly seen His Majesty's methods yet!"

Seeing Xu Rong so frightened, Dian Wei patted him on the shoulder and teased him.

"Old Dian, tell me, could it be that His Majesty is a heavenly god descended to earth?"

After being patted awake by Dian Wei, Xu Rong even changed how he addressed him, asking Dian Wei with a fanatical expression.

"Heh, what are heavenly gods? His Majesty is an existence even more powerful than heavenly gods. Once you see more grand scenes in the future, these won't count for anything!"

Seeing Xu Rong comparing heavenly gods to Liu Bian, Dian Wei said with disdain.

Back then, Liu Bian had told everyone that when Martial Dao cultivation reached a profound level, one could become an immortal or a master; mere heavenly gods were nothing at all.

However, Xu Rong, who had just joined, did not know these things. At this moment, hearing Dian Wei's bold words, one could imagine the shock in his heart!

"What! He doesn't even put heavenly gods in his eyes! How powerful must that existence be!"

Xu Rong could not help but exclaim in surprise.

Seeing that Liu Bian and the others were ignoring him, he couldn't help but think to himself:

"Fortunately, I was wise enough to choose to submit to His Majesty. Otherwise, I might not even know how I died when the time came!"

"Is this something a human can do? And, listening to Old Dian, this isn't even His Majesty's full strength!"

"Presumably, Old Dian wouldn't lie to me. If this is true, then His Majesty's strength is simply too terrifying!"

Thinking of this, Xu Rong couldn't help but shiver.

Dian Wei, who was on the side, immediately noticed Xu Rong's movement and couldn't help but ask:

"Old Xu, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Dian Wei did not know that Xu Rong was shocked by Liu Bian's strength; he thought he was unwell and asked with concern.

"Thank you for your concern, General Dian, I am fine."

Xu Rong was deeply moved by Dian Wei's care.

"What 'General'? Old Xu, you suit my taste. 'Old Dian' sounded pretty good just now. From now on, I'll call you Old Xu, and you call me Old Dian. That's more intimate!"

Seeing Xu Rong address him as General, Dian Wei patted him on the shoulder and said with displeasure.

"This... then I will shamelessly accept!"

Hearing Dian Wei's words, Xu Rong felt a bit awkward. He had just been shocked and had a slip of the tongue; he didn't expect Dian Wei to be so easygoing.

"Hahaha, that's right. Under His Majesty, there aren't so many formalities."

"Like me and that guy Xu Chu, that's how we address each other!"

Seeing Xu Rong agree, Dian Wei said happily.

"It seems that joining His Majesty's command is also a good choice!"

"Seeing Dian Wei treat him so well, Xu Rong thought to himself."

"Wenhe, I leave these ten tons of corn seeds to you. Be sure to arrange manpower to distribute them to the commoners as soon as possible."

At this moment, Liu Bian's voice broke the crowd's shock.

After hearing Liu Bian's words, Jia Xu immediately guaranteed:

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, this minister will certainly distribute the seeds to the commoners as soon as possible."

"It will definitely not affect the planting!"

"Good, I am very reassured when Wenhe handles things."

After making arrangements with Jia Xu, Jia Xu immediately arranged for people to take action.

And Liu Bian led Guo Jia and the others back into the main hall.

"General Xu Rong, back then, His Majesty intended to send Wenhe to be an envoy to you."

"I didn't expect that before Wenhe arrived, His Majesty had already arrived."

Guo Jia was smiling and saying this to Xu Rong.

"This..."

"What virtue or ability does this subordinate have to be so valued by His Majesty!"

For a moment, Xu Rong was moved.

"It's fine, these are all things of the past."

Liu Bian waved his hand slightly and did not continue to speak about this matter.

Instead, he turned his head to look at Tai'a, the Deputy Commander of the Shadow Guards, and asked:

"Is there any news about Ma Teng and Guan Yu?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, General Ma Teng has already completely annihilated the twenty-thousand-strong Qiang army led by E He and Yan Xing five days ago."

"At this time, they have already taken Yunwu City, and Han Sui has also been captured alive by General Ma Chao."

"Currently, they are planning to sweep through the Qiang tribes in Jincheng Commandery."

Tai'a immediately reported Ma Teng's movements to Liu Bian.

"Good! Tell the father and son Ma Teng that not a single Qiang person is to be left in Jincheng Commandery."

"The tiny Qiang tribe actually dared to reach out toward our Han Empire."

"Then there is no need for them to exist!"

Hearing about the Qiang tribe, Liu Bian said with a cold expression.

"Yes, this subordinate obeys!"

Tai'a immediately accepted the order and said respectfully.

"Your Majesty is wise. The tiny Qiang tribe actually dared to covet our Han Dynasty; they should be exterminated!"

"It should be so!"

As Liu Bian's voice fell, Lü Bu and Guo Jia also said with murderous intent.

"Rest assured, those who dare to offend our Han Empire will be punished even if they are far away!"

Liu Bian agreed with the words of Lü Bu and the others, and said with murderous intent.

"Your Majesty is wise, those who dare to offend our Han Dynasty will be punished even if they are far away!"

Everyone also roared with murderous intent.

"Tai'a, tell me and the ministers about Guan Yu's movements!"

After solving Ma Teng's matter, Liu Bian asked Tai'a about Guan Yu's movements.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, General Guan Yu had already taken Niyang City three days ago."

"At this time, he should be arriving at Fuping City soon."

Tai'a bowed and said to Liu Bian and the others.

"Good, worthy of being Guan Yunchang, to have taken Niyang City so quickly."

Hearing that Guan Yu had taken Niyang City three days ago, Liu Bian shouted loudly.

"We congratulate Your Majesty!"

After hearing this good news, everyone also congratulated Liu Bian one after another.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, in this way, of the eleven commanderies in the entire Liangzhou, only Longxi, Hanyang, and Wudu remain unrecovered."

And Guo Jia said to Liu Bian excitedly.

"Hahaha, not bad. I imagine Mengde will help me take those three commanderies soon!"
