Chapter 703: Edge
"Wechen has seen the Eighteen Princes." Feng Changrong stood at the east gate of Wuzhou Mansion, and saw Shen Yan and his party coming slowly, Feng Changrong's eyes flashed a complicated look, after being warned by Wu Zhenyue, Feng Changrong had already realized that he had missed an important opportunity, if he was not too calculating, then Shen Yan would let himself take on the responsibility of the Wuzhou Mansion Tongzhi this time, and after Shen Yan and Xia Yuanxu played together, his appointment would soon come down.
It's a pity that he was smart this time but was mistaken by being smart, and his attitude towards the Hao family's troubles was a little too much, he thought that this matter would not reach Shen Yan's ears, even if it passed through, the affairs of Wuzhou Mansion would reach a good balance under his own governance, who knows, Shen Yan arranged other deployments early in the morning, and his plan was not realized at all, but he missed an important opportunity.
"No need to be polite." Seeing Feng Changrong's attitude, Xia Yuanxu also sighed softly, a talent that was worth making good use of, but was harmed by his own selfishness, and his attitude towards Feng Changrong, as Shen Yan said, can only be suppressed for a period of time, if the performance in the back is still not improved, then you can only give up this person, the so-called meritocracy, but employing people is more virtuous, and it is easy to lose control if you are talented without virtue.
"Thank you, Eighteen Princes." Seeing Xia Yuanxu's natural expression, he didn't seem to know his previous attitude towards the Hao family, Feng Changrong's heart couldn't help but feel a little relieved, even if this matter was known by Shen Yan, so what, it was the eighteenth prince who he wanted to take refuge in, not Shen Yan. As long as Shen Yan didn't tell the Eighteen Princes, his position in the Eighteen Princes' hearts would not change.
"I've seen Lord Shen, Lord Shen has worked hard to investigate the White Lotus Sect." A sincere smile appeared on Feng Changrong's face, and then he turned his head, a touch of smugness appeared in his eyes, mixed with a hint of provocation, and met Shen Yan's gaze with a sly smile, as if he wanted to tell Shen Yan, even if you know my attitude towards the Hao family, as long as the eighteenth prince doesn't mind, I have nothing to do, although you Shen Yan is very powerful, but it is only military, if the eighteenth prince wants to develop, in addition to military help, the power of government affairs is also essential, And he will be the most important government force under the Eighteen Princes.
"Lord Feng doesn't have to be polite." A faint smile appeared on the corner of Shen Yan's mouth, and he glanced at Feng Changrong, who didn't seem to care about the meaning expressed in Feng Changrong's eyes, and didn't seem to understand the meaning in Feng Changrong's eyes at all.
"Lord Feng guards the Wuzhou Mansion, and my court has worked harder to collect grain and grass than those of us, not to mention, Lord Feng has to always prevent no one from making trouble behind his back, and he disobeys Lord Feng's instructions." After Shen Yan finished speaking, a faint smile appeared in his eyes, and he glanced at Feng Changrong with a hint of nonchalant, and said loudly.
"Lord Shen is too polite." Hearing Shen Yan's words, a strange look flashed in Feng Changrong's eyes, as if with a trace of fear and a hint of luck, he felt a kind of helplessness in his heart, and said a little hard.
"Lord Feng, what are you doing here, you are blocking the way for the Eighteenth Prince to enter the city." A refreshing smile appeared at the corner of Gao Yong's mouth, and he glanced at Feng Changrong, who was slightly stunned, and said with a smile.
"Eighteen princes, I'm sorry, the lower official lost his mind for a while." Hearing Gao Yong's words, a trace of embarrassment appeared on Feng Changrong's face, and he hurriedly apologized to Xia Yuanxu.
"It doesn't matter." Xia Yuanxu knew why Feng Changrong lost his mind, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"The Eighteen Princes, the end of the future is one step late, and I hope that the Eighteen Princes will not be surprised." Xia Yuanxu had just taken a few steps when Luo Yuhui's hearty voice came.
"General Luo is busy training the army, how can this prince be strange." Seeing Luo Yuhui's figure appear, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Xia Yuanxu's mouth.
Xia Yuanxu had always fantasized that this could pull Luo Yuhui under his command, however, since Shen Yan rose like a comet, coupled with Luo Yuhui's attitude, Xia Yuanxu had lost interest in Luo Yuhui, and Xia Yuanxu was also sure in his heart that as long as Shen Yan helped him, it didn't matter if there was Luo Yuhui or not, yes, it was a good thing, no, it was not a bad thing.
"I've seen Lord Shen." Luo Yuhui immediately said to Shen Yan beside Xia Yuanxu.
Luo Yuhui was originally full of disdain for Shen Yan, at most he wanted to use Shen Yan's strength to exterminate the White Lotus Sect, but because the matter was not confidential and let the inner ghost inform the White Lotus Sect, so that his carefully deployed strategy failed, Luo Yuhui had no interest in Shen Yan anymore, plus Shen Yan later pulled away some people from the Jinling front army, although this was voluntary by Yao Podou and others, but this account could only be counted on Shen Yan's head, so Luo Yuhui was full of jealousy and hatred towards Shen Yan, if there was a chance, Luo Yuhui didn't mind letting Shen Yan eat deflated once.
"Lord Shen has made such a great contribution at a young age, and when he returns to Jinling, the emperor will definitely give Lord Shen a grand reward, and at the same time, Lord Shen's position in the military will definitely go further, maybe the person who will be in charge of the military in the future will be Lord Shen."
"In charge of the military? General Luo is too praised, how can this official He De dare to be in charge of the military. Shen Yan was very clear about Luo Yuhui's intentions, so a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, glanced at Luo Yuhui, and said lightly.
"This official is all petty and can't get on the stage, how can he compare with Mr. Luo. Besides, these military exploits of this official are all properly deployed by the emperor, and the eighteen princes are well commanded, and this official just takes some advantage. ”
"Lord Shen is too modest." Hearing Shen Yan's words, Luo Yuhui immediately understood Shen Yan's intentions, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, it is indeed difficult to deal with if he is not arrogant or impatient, however, if he wants to avoid his counterattack with such an attitude, Shen Yan is not thinking about the problem too simply.
The greater Shen Yan's contributions, the greater the crisis of returning to Jinling, many people in the court are unwilling to see Shen Yan's rise, and they are even more unwilling to see Shen Yan make such great contributions, the greater Shen Yan's merits, the more it seems that some people in the court are not capable enough, and what these courtiers are most afraid of is comparison, and some people compare them.
"General Luo must have doubts, the White Lotus Sect in Lingnan has not been exterminated, and this official will lead the army back to Wuzhou Mansion." Shen Yan's eyes showed a faint smile, glanced at Luo Yuhui, and said slowly with a touch of deep meaning.
