Chapter 113: Yan Wu Joins the Stronghold

Wei Xikang was stunned on the spot and laughed: "What is Big Boss Jiang talking about? I don't understand!"

"Really don't understand? Then I won't say it, you read your book!" Jiang Jinshi suddenly had a bad taste, intending to hang Wei Xikang's appetite, so he turned and prepared to leave.

This made Wei Xikang unable to handle it. Usually, shouldn't there be a tug-of-war? Even if you know my identity, you should pretend not to know, and then reveal the news to me casually?

These words were only said halfway. How could Wei Xikang let Jiang Jinshi go? He could only bite the bullet and step forward to stop the other party.

"Big Boss Jiang, why did you leave before you finished speaking?"

"You want to hear?" Jiang Jinshi raised his eyebrows.

Wei Xikang nodded immediately. The matter was of great importance and he couldn't consider it too much.

So Jiang Jinshi sat down and informed Wei Xikang of the news he had obtained so far, while staring at the other party intently.

When Wei Xikang heard that the Second Prince had ascended the throne and the Prince of Xiliang had raised an army to rebel, he could still remain calm. After all, the former was a nailed-down thing. Didn't his brother do so much just for this day?

And the latter was also within his expectation. This was the reason why he chose to come to Beijiang at the beginning.

But when Wei Xikang knew the situation of the Prince of Zhenbei, he was immediately angry and stood up, slapping the table: "Rebelled! Have they all rebelled?"

Jiang Jinshi knew that Wei Xikang was talking about these governors and the officials among them, but he couldn't help but complain: "Even if they really rebelled, you can't blame them. You can only say that the imperial court is not doing its job, right? Who wouldn't rebel?"

These words made Wei Xikang stunned. Several times he opened his mouth to say something but couldn't say it, and his face turned red with anger.

Wei Xikang exhaled, as if he had made some kind of determination, and said to Jiang Jinshi: "Big Boss Jiang, can you let me go down the mountain?"

"You want to find the Prince of Zhenbei?" Jiang Jinshi was not surprised. When he intended to chat with him about this, he had already guessed the current scene.

Wei Xikang nodded: "I cannot sit idly by and watch the people of Beijiang suffer."

The conversation had reached this point, and the two were almost open and honest, with only the last layer of paper not pierced.

Wei Xikang knew that Jiang Jinshi must have known his identity, and Jiang Jinshi wouldn't call the other party Crown Prince even if he knew. There was no need to put this on the table.

"What can you do if you go?" Jiang Jinshi didn't want to hit Wei Xikang, but now Wei Xikang had no use other than the identity of the Crown Prince.

"Things always have to be done. My father once told me that things are done by people." Wei Xikang had a very clear positioning of himself. Now the identity of the Crown Prince was more harmful than beneficial to him.

If he fell into the hands of those nobles, it would be an excuse for others to rise up and rebel, just like the banner raised by the Prince of Xiliang.

The Prince of Zhenbei could be said to be his last straw, and also the last vitality of the Da Qian Dynasty. He definitely couldn't let it go.

Jiang Jinshi didn't respond, thinking about the possibility.

The smart Wei Xikang guessed Jiang Jinshi's concerns and immediately said in a deep voice: "Big Boss Jiang doesn't need to worry. I won't take my luggage when I go, and I haven't been to Lianhuan Shan."

"Perhaps you might not necessarily believe these words of mine, but actually...

I still quite like these children!

Erdan, Xiaoniu, and the others study very hard. If possible, I still want to come back and be their teacher."

These words fell into Jiang Jinshi's ears as: I don't want the Imperial Seal, I won't mention the past in Lianhuan Shan when I go to the Prince of Zhenbei, and I won't bring troops to besiege Yangguangzhai.

As the Crown Prince, he could give such a guarantee, and Jiang Jinshi naturally had nothing to say.

"Since that's the case, I'll send you down the mountain!" Since he thought it through, Jiang Jinshi didn't hesitate.

"Thank you, Big Boss Jiang!" Wei Xikang said gratefully. Although he had said it very well, he didn't expect Jiang Jinshi to let him go.

You must know that it was not difficult to tie him up and take him to others to exchange for a thousand gold and silver. If he was handed over to his second brother, it would be very easy to exchange for a high official position.

Only he didn't expect Jiang Jinshi to really let him go. Such tolerance had already surpassed ninety percent of the heroes in the world!

"At the time of parting, I have a request." Wei Xikang continued to say to Jiang Jinshi, "My guard Yan Wu has good skills. It's a waste of talent to keep him in the dungeon. If Big Boss Jiang trusts me, let me talk to him. In the future, he can also do some chores for Big Boss Jiang."

"Okay! If my temple is small and he doesn't like it, it's fine to follow you." This was just a small matter for Jiang Jinshi. Perhaps Yan Wu had some skills, but wasn't Yangguangzhai full of heroes?!

Wei Xikang and Jiang Jinshi went straight to the dungeon and found Yan Wu, who was dozing off.

Yan Wu was very happy to see Wei Xikang, "Young Master! How have you been lately?"

"Yan Wu, listen to me!" Wei Xikang said to Yan Wu with a serious face, "I'm leaving. You stay in Yangguangzhai and follow Big Boss Jiang well. He won't treat you badly."

Yan Wu, who was still smiling, had his smile freeze on his face the next moment, "Young Master... what does this mean?"

Even in front of Jiang Jinshi, Wei Xikang didn't mean to hide anything and told Yan Wu all the news, as well as his own decision.

"Since that's the case, Yan Wu is willing to accompany the Young Master!" Yan Wu didn't hesitate at all and immediately made a choice.

Wei Xikang put his hands on Yan Wu's shoulders and showed a relieved smile: "You have suffered too many grievances following me along the way. I hope you can stay here."

Yan Wu shook his head repeatedly: "Not aggrieved. As long as the Young Master is safe, Yan Wu will never frown even if he goes up the mountain of swords and down the sea of fire."

"Listen to me, the Prince of Zhenbei has many experts under his command. It will be of little use if you go with me. It's better to stay here. If there is really any accident... there will be someone to sacrifice to me and the brothers of the Eastern Palace next year."

Wei Xikang knew that he would naturally be more ominous than auspicious this time, but he had a reason he had to go.

Yan Wu still wanted to say something, but the next moment Wei Xikang shouted: "This is an order!"

"Yes!" Yan Wu's eyes were covered with a layer of water mist, and he gritted his teeth and agreed.

Wei Xikang untied the rope on Yan Wu's body and said to Jiang Jinshi with some apology: "Big Boss Jiang, sorry to trouble you during this time!"

Jiang Jinshi leaned against the door and yawned, "No trouble, go when you are ready!"

Wei Xikang didn't look at Yan Wu again, fearing that he would be soft-hearted and take him along. It could be said that Yan Wu had been selected and trained since he was sensible, and his brothers were all guards of the Eastern Palace, but now only he was left.

If he really had any accident, Yan Wu would be the last person in the world who could remember the guards of the Eastern Palace. Reasonably and emotionally, he couldn't take him along anymore.

From the thousand-mile escape from the capital to Beijiang, Yan Wu had long been more than just his guard in his heart. He hoped that Yan Wu could have a good result. Currently, following Jiang Jinshi was a very good choice. ===== CHAPTER 114 =====
