Rebirth of the High Family's Beloved
Chapter 256 Military Power
It was a human head with a bloody face.
The cut where the collar broke was still fresh.
Seeing Dao Ji holding the head with his bare hands without changing his expression, Zuo Chun, who almost vomited up his overnight meal, secretly gave him a thumbs up.
As expected of the Emperor's top guard, he is very calm and composed. Even ten of him would be...
vomit……
Can't catch up.
Shen Zhaoyan, who originally didn't feel that nauseous, had his stomach react unconsciously when he heard Zuo Chun's vomiting sound.
He waved his hand, asked Zuo Chun to go down and adjust it, and asked Dao Ji to take this disgusting thing outside to deal with it.
When Dao Ji came back after finishing the work, Zuo Chun had not returned yet. Only Shen Zhaoyan was standing on the corridor at the door, looking into the distance.
Daoji walked over, bowed and said, "Marunachi's head has been buried, and I will send someone to look for the body."
Shen Zhaoyan sneered, his handsome face showing a fierce look, "I didn't expect Shen Zhaoyi to be so ruthless. I thought he would follow Maruchi's clues to investigate."
Dao Ji said: "I guess the princess' marriage has confused him."
"I think he did it on purpose. He wanted to intimidate me."
Shen Zhaoyan stood quietly, his eyes narrowed as he looked into the distance, "But he did remind me that since he could throw Maruchi's head in front of me so easily, he might intercept her on the way to the marriage. Send a message to the Red Di people, asking them to send someone to pick her up as soon as possible, otherwise there will be more trouble."
Dao Ji bowed in response and turned to leave.
At this time in the Huwei military camp, Fang Yanjin was sitting in the military tent reading the letter from Shen Zhaoyan.
The beautiful eyebrows and eyes were buried in the dim light, and the vague outline was vaguely visible.
Hearing footsteps outside the military tent, Fang Yanjin immediately placed the letter on the lamp beside him and lit it. In an instant, the letter turned into black ashes.
At this time, the military tent was opened, and a young man in the uniform of the Tiger Army came in. He bowed to Fang Yanjin and said, "General, Captain Xie's brother is here at the barracks."
Fang Yanjin thought for a moment, "Xie Chengyi's brother? Let's call Xie Chengyin."
"Exactly."
"What is he here for?"
Zhu Yidao: "I heard that you came to visit because you missed your brother."
Come here specially to visit your brother?
Fang Yanjin looked at the ashes of the remaining letter paper on the corner of the table. A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say much.
"I see, you go down."
In the letter he received, Shen Zhaoyan asked him to take advantage of the princess's marriage to seize the other half of the military power in Xie Chengyi's hands. He was thinking about how to tell Xie Chengyi about the princess's marriage without leaving any trace, when Xie Chengyin came.
Xie Chengyin rushed to the military camp from Dongdu at this time. As he expected, it was to inform Xie Chengyi about the princess' marriage.
Given Xie Chengyi's personality, he would definitely not agree to the princess' marriage to the Red Di. Soon, Xie Chengyi would come to him and ask for his orders to fight off the enemy.
He only needed to reject Xie Chengyi, and when Xie Chengyi led his troops out of the barracks on his own initiative, he could take away his military power on the grounds of disobeying military orders.
But Fang Yanjin waited until the next day, but Xie Chengyi still did not show up.
With dark circles under his eyes from sitting all night, he comforted himself in his heart: We must be meeting brothers and have a lot to talk about, so that's why I didn't come.
Brothers Xie Chengyi and Xie Chengyin do have a lot to say.
Xie Chengyi was very surprised at his brother's arrival. Before that, he had received the news from Liu Xi, so he had already considered the matter of the princess' marriage.
When Xie Chengyi saw his brother suddenly coming to the army, he thought that something new had happened.
Xie Chengyin explained his purpose and said that he actually came to the army for training.
Xie Chengyi was very pleased after hearing this, and he talked with his brother all night until dawn, when they went back to rest.
Fang Yanjin waited for two days but Xie Chengyi never showed up. When the military training started, he didn't see Xie Chengyi either, and he couldn't help but feel worried.
Could it be that Xie Chengyin never told his brother about the princess's marriage?
Thinking of this, he called Zhu Yi over and whispered a few words in his ear.
Sanchi saw all of this and reported it to Xie Chengyi when he returned.
Xie Chengyi and Xie Chengyin were explaining the structure and marching habits of the Huwei Army. When they heard Sanchi's report, the two brothers smiled at each other.
Xie Chengyin curled his lips and chuckled: "It seems that Fang Yanjin can no longer sit still."
Xie Chengyi said: "Then we can go visit our General Huwei tonight."
At night, when the military camp, which was bustling during the day, became quiet, everyone had gone to bed on time except for the soldiers on guard and patrol.
In the general's tent, Fang Yanjin opened his slightly tired eyes and stared at the half-burned candle.
At this time, under the reflection of the candlelight, three figures were reflected in the military tent, followed by Zhu Yi's voice.
"General, Captain Xie and his brother are here to see you."
Hearing this report, Fang Yanjin immediately perked up. He sat up straight and said in a deep voice, "Please come in."
The figure standing at the front of the military tent took a step back and made a gesture of invitation, while the two people standing behind him nodded, opened the door of the military tent and walked in.
Xie Chengyi and Xie Chengyin walked into the military tent one after another, and bowed to Fang Yanjin at the same time.
Xie Chengyi lowered his eyes and said, "Captain Xie Chengyi of the Fifth Army pays respect to the General."
Fang Yanjin's face was calm, and he raised his hand, "Thank you, Captain, for your courtesy. Please take a seat."
Then he looked at Xie Chengyin who was standing behind Xie Chengyi, looked him up and down and said, "This must be your brother."
"It is my brother Xie Chengyin."
Xie Chengyin pretended to be a stranger and looked directly at Fang Yanjin. The ambiguous meaning in his eyes made Fang Yanjin look away on his own initiative.
Fang Yanjin suppressed his confusion. It was clearly the first time they met, so why did he see mockery in Xie Chengyin's eyes?
In fact, this was not the first time Xie Chengyin met Fang Yanjin. They had dealt with each other many times in their previous lives.
It’s just that at that time, Xie Chengyin was a killer who was not allowed to see the light of day, while Fang Yanjin was a powerful general who was praised by the people.
Fang Yanjin, who is upright, smart and alert, has chased Xie Chengyin into a desperate situation several times.
When they met again now, the two of them were still standing on opposite sides, but this time, the one who betrayed his true intentions was Fang Yanjin.
Xie Chengyin sat down next to his brother, looking at the furnishings in the tent intentionally or unintentionally, which was not much different from his previous life.
It seems that they might gain something different from this trip tonight.
Xie Chengyin lowered his head and thought randomly, then he heard Xie Chengyi say, "General, I came here to ask for a favor."
Hearing this, Fang Yanjin, who was sitting at the top, felt relieved. It was just as he expected.
A faint but gentle smile appeared on his face, "Thank you, Captain. Please feel free to speak."
"I am a little ashamed to say that my brother has been idle since he was young. Now he comes to the military camp to find me, saying that he wants to make achievements here. I think it would be a good thing to let him gain some experience, but if I want to keep him in the camp, I must get the general's approval, so I come to ask the general for help."
