Chapter 178 Long live my emperor (65)

Master Ji Yu, who was in charge of all the strategic plans, rarely revealed some real and complex emotions: sadness, anger, and even a hint of imperceptible grievance.

Nan Yue came back to her senses and chuckled as usual, saying, "Brother Huai'an, you are my most capable counselor. How could I not trust you? You are overthinking."

"No, you clearly..."

Before Ji Huaian could finish his words, the young man suddenly pulled his hand out, pressed his shoulder and pushed him away...

"I'm going to go see Brother Ziliang first. If Brother Huai'an has nothing else to do, he can help me deal with these matters."

Nan Yue glanced at the files on the desk, then stood up and left...

Ji Huaian raised his hand, as if he wanted to grab her, but he could only touch the corner of her sleeve.

In the end, he couldn't ask her to stay.

He rubbed his fingertips, and the touch seemed to still be there, but the boy had already left without looking back, leaving him standing there in a daze...

Ji Huaian lowered his eyes, his face expressionless, but his whole body was gloomy.

Even if he caught her, he would keep her.

What else can I say...

That he loved her, that he would not betray her and would be devoted to her, that he was willing to withdraw from the chess game and not compete with her?
He gave a wry smile.

The young man is so capable, why should he give in?

Many things are beyond his control...

If he were just Ji Huaian, he could truly be the number one strategist under Chu Yu.

If he were just Ji Huaian, he would be able to gain the young man's full trust.

If he were just Ji Huaian, even if he couldn't express his feelings, he could still stay with the boy with peace of mind.

If he just...

Time really passes too fast...

……

Pingzhou was temporarily pacified, and personnel for Nanyue had also been arranged.

While she was busy contacting the officials and families of Jiangzhou, Ji Huaian left quietly.

It was already midnight when the banquet ended. Nan Yue smelled slightly of alcohol as she returned home. The servant who usually served Ji Huaian came running to her and told her anxiously that Master Ji Yu was missing.

Nan Yue followed the servant into Ji Huaian's room.

The room was as clean as ever, and it looked like the person had left on his own.

He didn't take much with him, but he took away the winter clothes that Nan Yue had given him before, as well as the jade pendant and other items she occasionally gave him...

"Sir, do you want to send someone to look for him?" asked the attendant.

He heard that Master Ji Yu had secretly run away from King Xiqing before, and then appeared beside the Lord inexplicably.

I heard that Prince Xiqing had been searching for her secretly for quite some time.

What if Master Ji Yu ran away this time to find another master?

It was also his fault that he didn't keep a close eye on him, allowing Master Ji Yu to leave like this without even leaving a letter.

The young man stood in the room, not knowing what he was thinking about. After a while he spoke in a calm voice.

"No, let him be."

Sooner or later, we have to leave...

"Haha, look at you. It would have been great if you had just followed the prince and assisted him. You could have enjoyed endless wealth and glory, but you insisted on fighting for the world and doing something big. Now you can't even keep an adviser."

444, who hadn't shown up for a long time, finally found the chance to make some sarcastic comments.

I don't know where the plot line is going. Every time Nan Yue successfully captures a city or recruits a capable person, 444 will be hit.

Now we can finally see her "capsize".

Of course, it was also unhappy with Ji Huaian. Perhaps it was traumatized by the previous two worlds. It was annoyed by the men around Nan Yue, especially the elegant and handsome ones.

It’s just right to leave now.

It mocked him like this, and Liuliu got angry first, "What are you talking about?! Everything is under the control of the host! Even if there is no strategist, the host can still accomplish great things! You are not allowed to criticize the host!" The two systems started fighting in the space again.

Nan Yue rubbed her forehead, feeling a headache from the noise from the two systems, and blocked them skillfully.

She didn't think too much about Ji Huaian's leaving without saying goodbye. After all, she had a lot of things to do now.

"Sir, I heard that you drank a lot of wine at the banquet today. I prepared some hangover soup for you. Please drink some."

A woman's soft voice came from behind.

Nan Yue turned and went out, took the hangover soup from the tray, drank it, thanked him, and told the attendant beside her, "Go and invite Master Zuo Yi and the others."

"Here."

Qin Shuzhen glanced around the room and vaguely sensed that the boy was in a bad mood, but she didn't ask any more questions. She smiled slightly and took the initiative to bring up other topics.

"If you can persuade Jiangzhou to surrender without any soldiers, you will control five states, and you will be able to compete with Chaoge."

"It's not that easy." Nan Yue straightened her expression and talked with Qin Shuzhen as they walked...

Taking Jiangzhou is not a problem, but her powerful troops are all in Wenzhou, which is separated by a river. The troops in Jiangzhou are definitely not enough. She has already arranged people to improve the ships.

She originally caused trouble under the banner of Daning, although no one mentions this matter now.

But I'm afraid that Chaoge will use the Marquis' Mansion to threaten her, and she will be the first one to be attacked...

However, Nan Yue has now grown stronger and is not afraid to confront them.

Song.

The drunken Emperor Ning seemed to suddenly wake up. He issued several orders and sent several generals to recover the territory of Daning.

But it was too late. In addition, there were many corrupt officials in the court, and Emperor Ning valued civil officials over military officials.

After the Marquis of Yongding died in battle, some military generals, disheartened by Emperor Ning's attitude towards the Marquis's Mansion, retired from the army and returned to the countryside, leaving few useful people in the court.

They could only barely keep one or two states near Yizhou.

Emperor Ning was so angry that his heart was broken, and coupled with his greed for enjoyment, his health had been poor for many years and he fell seriously ill.

The emperor was seriously ill, so Prince Yan took over the management of state affairs...

The young Crown Prince Yan has to shoulder the responsibility of this dynasty that is about to be destroyed.

Perhaps it was because the prince was popular among the people that he managed to stabilize the crumbling Chaoge and even recapture several cities.

There was even a famous strategist who came out of retirement and traveled thousands of miles to Chaoge and asked to follow the prince.

at the same time.

Nanyue finally made Jiangzhou surrender.

There is another force that is rising rapidly like her.

That is the Xie family of Yunzhou.

The Xie family, who were once beheaded and exiled by Emperor Ning on the ridiculous grounds of a rare treasure falling from the sky, actually still have direct descendants.

Come to think of it, even a centipede will die but its limbs remain intact. As a noble family, how could the Xie family be easily wiped out?

I heard that the person nominated by Yunzhou is a direct descendant of the Xie family.

The brilliant and talented man is the third son of the Xie family, Xie Huai.

After the fall of the Xie family, Yunzhou was in chaos for a period of time. Various noble families attempted to occupy it, and later the people rose up in anger.

But after Xie returned, he disappeared completely.

After two or three years of chaos, the situation in the world finally became clear.

The Chaoge royal family, headed by Crown Prince Yan.

The royal family was once corrupt, but Crown Prince Yan was different from his father.

The Xie family of Yunzhou, once a century-old family that never fought or competed, now has unknown forces in the dark.

Another one is...

Surprisingly, it was the son of Marquis Yongding, Chu Yu.

He is different from others. Others have some support from their families, but he relies on himself to have such a huge force that he can compete with these proud talents.
