Chapter 112: Your Imperial Uncle Has Rebelled (Two-in-One)

Jiang Jinshi was suddenly very curious about who was among the SSR martial generals in this system. He was not surprised that Huo Qubing was one of them.

Immediately afterward, he recruited several S-level ones. Congratulations on obtaining Xu Chu, Dian Wei, Ma Chao...

It just so happened that Dian Wei could be used by Xiao Hu, Ma Chao felt he could be given to Ye Chang, and the remaining squad leaders naturally had one each.

By the time everyone hurriedly set up the altar, Jiang Jinshi had a strange feeling: why did this matter feel more and more formal?

This scene attracted many other mountain bandits to watch. Jiang Jinshi didn't even know how the news leaked.

It wasn't that he wanted to hide this from the other mountain bandit brothers, but this matter was done... he was embarrassed!!

He had thought about doing it secretly in the room, but who knew that several people actually went to build an altar.

Were they trying to make him make a fool of himself in public? Thinking of this, Jiang Jinshi turned around with an expressionless face, intending to run away quickly before anyone noticed him!

"Big Boss, everything is ready. It's up to you next!" Luo Feng grabbed Jiang Jinshi, who was turning around, looking at the altar with full piety.

"I'm not feeling very well, I'll go sleep for a while." Jiang Jinshi still wanted to find an excuse to slip away.

"Everyone is waiting! It will be over soon." Luo Feng still didn't let Jiang Jinshi go.

Jiang Jinshi turned around and looked at everyone's curious eyes, while the squad leaders who had already integrated the martial general souls looked pious.

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Jinshi recited silently: If I don't go to hell, who goes to hell!

With a backflip, he jumped onto the altar, Jiang Jinshi closed his eyes and raised his hands high.

Wei Xikang was mixed in the crowd, watching this scene intently, thinking that this should be the means Jiang Jinshi used to capture the hearts of the people, and it was completely impossible to have any practical use.

Xiao Hu stood by the altar. He didn't know what his big brother was doing, but it didn't affect the worship in his eyes at all.

Half a stick of incense passed, Jiang Jinshi still closed his eyes and didn't speak. At this moment, his brain was a mess.

What was I supposed to say? What about the lines?

Nie Fengyun was a bit confused and asked Luo Feng in a low voice: "Did you have to wait this long before?"

"No, it should be because there are more people today, so it takes more time." Luo Feng didn't open his mouth very wide, and his voice was very low, fearing that a loud voice would profane the God of the Sun.

"Xihe drives the sun to bathe the eight wildernesses, my god shines down to descend the mysterious light. Willing to bear the spiritual brilliance to wash away the dust and delusions, pious prayer is believed to bestow prestige!" Finally, Jiang Jinshi's brain successfully booted up, remembering the poem he had recited randomly last time.

"Nie Fengyun, you go first!" Jiang Jinshi tried his best not to look at others, fearing that he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

And at this moment, Li Xinyue was hiding in the room, quietly looking out, laughing so hard that her stomach hurt.

Nie Fengyun didn't expect that he would be the first, so he hurriedly walked forward and knelt on the futon.

Jiang Jinshi chose Xu Chu and recited fusion in his heart.

Afterward, a look of joy suddenly rose on Nie Fengyun's face, and he hurriedly bowed and kowtowed toward the altar.

"Next!"

Jiang Jinshi calmed his breath, just wanting to finish the process quickly.

But the suspicion in Wei Xikang's eyes became more and more intense. Originally, he thought this was just some little tricks, but the people who went to accept the so-called divine power didn't look like they were acting.

If it were one or two people, it would be fine to treat it as Jiang Jinshi and others putting on a play for everyone to see.

But everyone's expression was so real, even the big man who was often beside Jiang Jinshi, who usually looked silly, would he have such realistic acting skills?

Even if his heart was a bit shaken, Wei Xikang was still more willing to believe that all this was fake.

It was not difficult to verify all this. He had seen the person named Jiang Ze training outside the martial arts field before, and today he also obtained 'divine power'.

When he saw it before, Wei Xikang knew that the other party was a layman, only knowing how to blindly exercise his body, and the moves he played were all taught by the person named Ye Chang, looking clumsy and powerless.

When he turned back, wouldn't he know if he found a time to have a fight with him?

After all, things like martial arts competitions, the real can't be fake, and the fake can't be real!

Finally, everything ended before Jiang Jinshi could dig out a three-bedroom and one-living room with his toes.

Such a good day was naturally worth being happy about. Jiang Jinshi immediately announced that there would be a banquet tonight, and wine and meat would be enough.

The most high-spirited person now was Luo Feng, who was promoted to middle squad leader and managed twelve small squads. Everyone was sincerely congratulating him.

Just when Luo Feng was very happy, Jiang Jinshi also stepped forward and said: "Not bad, didn't disgrace the title of Cold-Faced Cold Spear."

After saying this, Jiang Jinshi left, preparing to discuss opening a small stove with Li Xinyue.

Luo Feng, who was left in the crowd, lost his mind and muttered to himself: "Cold-Faced Cold Spear?"

He picked up the long spear in his hand and looked at it. Luo Feng immediately put away his smile, pretended to be serious, and deliberately wrinkled his eyebrows together.

"Brother, what's wrong? Are you unhappy?" Luo Jin looked at her brother with such an expression and asked suspiciously.

Luo Feng turned his head, just glanced at his sister lightly, and said coldly: "I cannot disgrace the title of Cold-Faced Cold Spear."

"Ah?" Luo Jin looked confused, completely not knowing what her big brother was thinking, and his words were inexplicable.

A month passed in a hurry, and a piece of news began to spread rapidly from the capital to the surroundings.

That was that the Second Prince Wei Xi Yuan had ascended the throne!

Accompanying this news was the detailed situation of the First Prince disappearing with the Imperial Seal and the two fighting internally in the palace.

Obviously, this was deliberately done by someone with a heart. In such news, the scholar-gentry did not reveal half a trace, and everything seemed to be the result of Wei Xi Yuan's many years of planning.

At this moment in Xiliang, the Prince of Xiliang sat on the main hall, wearing dark gold armor, and his face was three points similar to Wei Xikang.

The generals and strategists under his tent all sat below, and at the end of the crowd was Yu Heng's senior brother, Xuanji.

The Prince of Xiliang slowly opened his mouth: "The time has come, follow this prince to go on an expedition!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Afterward, the Prince of Xiliang announced to the world under the banner of clearing the monarch's side and supporting the orthodox, and the Xiliang army under his command also gathered rapidly toward the east, preparing to fight all the way into the Central Plains.

Unlike the unity of Xiliang, Beijiang at this moment was already riddled with holes.

The Prince of Zhenbei finally managed to borrow grain from the counties of Beijiang and took back the three lost cities in one go. The next moment, this news fell like a bolt from the blue.

Now the Prince of Zhenbei finally understood why his urgent reports for help and grain had no response. It turned out that there was a change in the capital.

Even if the Prince of Zhenbei was anxious in Beijiang, there was no way. He couldn't give up guarding Beijiang. Once he left, the vast Beijiang would become a slaughterhouse for the Xiongnu.

But the imperial court seemed to have abandoned the land of Beijiang. Whether it was the Prince of Zhenbei or other officials in Beijiang, the memorials submitted had no response, like a stone sinking into the sea.

Such big news naturally couldn't be hidden from the Xiongnu. You must know that the Xiongnu had also planted many spies in the Da Qian territory.

Therefore, the Xiongnu organized an attack again, even more fierce than before. Since the Prince of Zhenbei guarded Beijiang, the last large-scale war like this was fifteen years ago.

The Prince of Zhenbei led the generals and soldiers to tenaciously block the first wave of the Xiongnu's offensive, but he knew that this was just the beginning.

At the same time, in Lianhuan Shan, Xiao Chunqiu was sitting with Jiang Jinshi drinking tea, and also brought Jiang Jinshi the latest news.

"Now the Prince of Zhenbei is once again collecting grain from various counties. The situation at the front is worrying!" Xiao Chunqiu put down the teacup in his hand, his tightly furrowed eyebrows telling of his unease.

"Then what does the governor say?"

Now Jiang Jinshi was bound together with Licheng. Under the drive of huge interests, Licheng would not have a second voice.

Even Xiao Chunqiu, the Licheng County Magistrate, was no longer firmly toward the imperial court. If there was anything, he would discuss it with Jiang Jinshi in time, which led to this scene today.

Xiao Chunqiu held his forehead, feeling a headache about this matter, "The governor's meaning is to ignore it!"

"Ah?" Jiang Jinshi was shocked. Was this governor's head kicked by a donkey?

Once the Prince of Zhenbei was defeated, they wouldn't know what they would face?!

Under such circumstances, it should be reasonable for Beijiang to unite as one to resist foreign enemies first.

Unless... the governor had ulterior motives!

A self-deprecating smile hung on Xiao Chunqiu's face: "Of the six counties in Beijiang, except for Anbei County where the Prince of Zhenbei is located, the other five counties all refused for various reasons."

The six counties of Beijiang were Anbei County, Linchuan County, Shuo Fang County, Beiting County, Jingping County, and Guangwu County.

And Licheng was one of the fifteen cities under Guangwu County.

"What reason did the Guangwu County governor use to refuse?" Jiang Jinshi was very curious. Didn't these governors know the truth that if the lips are gone, the teeth are cold?

"Heh! He said it was to provide disaster relief and appease the refugees, and there was no grain in the granary!" Speaking of this, Xiao Chunqiu was angry. As a county magistrate of one of the fifteen cities under Guangwu County, why had he never received disaster relief grain?

And now the number of people in Yangguangzhai had exceeded the one thousand mark, because there were more and more refugees, and Jiang Jinshi could often find some good seedlings for martial arts among them.

Most of them were dragging their families along, and Jiang Jinshi was not stingy, taking the whole family together.

This also led to another phenomenon, which was that the reputation of Yangguangzhai among the refugees near Jiangcheng and Licheng and in other places was completely polarized.

The refugees near the two cities all hoped to join Yangguangzhai, and the mountain bandits of Yangguangzhai were no longer an existence that couldn't be seen, but could instead walk with their heads held high in Licheng.

"Actually, it's understandable! After all, the current Beijiang is no different from an abandoned child. They have to make plans for later." Jiang Jinshi told Xiao Chunqiu not to get angry and added tea to his cup again.

These words broke the thoughts of these governors. Now everyone couldn't figure out what the newly ascended emperor wanted to do, whether he wanted to abandon Beijiang or had other plans.

When they couldn't get a response, everyone had no bottom in their hearts and could only think about self-preservation.

Analyzing from the current situation, Beijiang might not be able to wait for the support of the imperial court. If there was any, it would have come long ago. Why would the Prince of Zhenbei suffer until now?

It was just a pity for those soldiers guarding the border, who were treated as sacrifices. Except for the Prince of Zhenbei, no one cared about their life or death.

"If you, Big Boss, were in the position of the Prince of Zhenbei, what would you do?" Xiao Chunqiu liked to chat with Jiang Jinshi about similar topics, and Jiang Jinshi's novel ideas could always make his eyes shine.

Jiang Jinshi took a sip of tea, "If I were the Prince of Zhenbei, I would temporarily retreat from the Xiongnu, avoid fighting first, even if I lost some cities temporarily, it wouldn't matter."

"And then?"

Jiang Jinshi laughed: "Then integrate Beijiang with the momentum of thunder. The Prince of Zhenbei has been in Beijiang for many years, has won the hearts of the people, and holds a large army. It is not difficult to achieve this. This is called 'to resist foreign aggression, one must first pacify the interior'!"

Xiao Chunqiu thought for a while and said: "Very reasonable, then take back the lost cities."

"Not only that, but also hit the Xiongnu hard, beating them until they are terrified and dare not commit crimes again!" When Jiang Jinshi said this, the unstoppable momentum was undisguised, and he continued.

"The rest is simple, gather the power of the entire Beijiang to go south, capture the dragon!!"

Once these words were out, Xiao Chunqiu's heart couldn't help but speed up violently, completely infected by Jiang Jinshi's spirit.

"Hahaha! We are just talking. After all, I am not the Prince of Zhenbei." The momentum on Jiang Jinshi's body converged in an instant, and he returned to his laughing and joking appearance.

What happened outside had nothing to do with Jiang Jinshi. Now Yangguangzhai had already made a fortune by relying on the refined salt produced every day, and life was very comfortable.

Not to mention that Li Xinyue was recently tinkering with glass, preparing to harvest a wave of money bags from those scholar-gentry and nobles.

If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. Below the Prince of Zhenbei, there are governors, and below the governors, there are these county magistrates. As a mountain bandit leader, he didn't need to worry about that, just make his own money well.

At worst, if the Prince of Zhenbei really loses, he would just run away with his family! As long as there is silver, one can live comfortably anywhere!

It was just that Jiang Jinshi still couldn't figure out who came up with the bad move of abandoning Beijiang?

Wei Xikang was becoming more and more adapted to his identity as a teacher in the school in Yangguangzhai. Although Yan Wu was still locked in the dungeon, he could occasionally visit the other party and talk about things that only the two of them could talk about.

Even when Wei Xikang saw that the students he taught had made progress, he could sincerely feel joy. He liked staying in Yangguangzhai more and more.

This was different from his initial thoughts. The source of his change was that he had a fight with Jiang Ze!

On the night Jiang Ze obtained the so-called 'divine power', he went to the other party for a fight, and Jiang Ze also readily agreed.

Then he was pressed and beaten throughout, beating him until he doubted life.

He thought he saw through everything, but he couldn't figure out why this 'divine power' actually existed!

Therefore, he began to explore the secrets of Yangguangzhai. Although there were still people monitoring him every day, and he couldn't go down the mountain, as long as he didn't go to the salt production site, other actions on the mountain were not restricted.

Wei Xikang saw the snowflake salt that he hadn't even eaten when he was the Crown Prince, being pulled out cart by cart, and also saw those who accepted 'divine power' growing at an astonishing speed every day. This seemed to be a magical stronghold.

Most importantly, this place seemed to have become a paradise, where everyone could laugh happily, without worrying about war, and without worrying about food, forming a picture completely opposite to the one below the mountain.

Jiang Jinshi sent Xiao Chunqiu away and found Wei Xikang, who was reading in the school. He was prepared to chat with Wei Xikang about the news of the imperial court to see what reaction the other party had.

"Old Wei, tell you something!"

"Please speak, Big Boss Jiang."

"Your second brother has ascended the throne, and your imperial uncle has rebelled. Do you know about this?" ===== CHAPTER 113 =====
