Standing in the ring at this moment, the soldiers who had just won the competition were also stunned by Wei Xun's unexpected move, and they didn't react for a long time.

Wei Xun stood in the ring, deliberately giving the soldiers who were watching on the side some time to react, and then opened his mouth calmly.

"So, let's get started. ”

As soon as Wei Xun's words fell, Zhou Yin, who was shocked a moment ago, walked up to Wei Xun with a smile, and pretended to be kind and handed Wei Xun a wooden sword.

"Rong Guogong, how can you do this martial arts without a weapon?"

"Lord Zhou, I don't need this weapon. ”

As he spoke, Wei Xun had already handed the sword back to Zhou Yin, and then he actually used light skills to jump up and jump directly in front of the soldier.

The soldier was shocked again, and he didn't care about Wei Xun's noble status, and subconsciously tried his best to fight back. However, contrary to his and all the soldiers present, this person who overcame all obstacles and finally stayed in the ring of this martial arts competition was knocked out of the ring by Wei Xun without anyone seeing it clearly.

The soldiers watching the battle in the audience just wanted to shout and cheer, but they were once again stunned by Wei Xun's lightning-like move.

Wei Xun's mood did not fluctuate at all, he slowly walked out of the ring, picked up the soldier who had been slapped by him, and said softly: "This little brother, don't worry, this palm is specially controlled by me, and your injury will heal in less than three days." ”

"Think...... Unexpectedly, Rong Guogong has a weak appearance, but this martial art has been practiced to the point of being superb!"

"Lord Zhou has won the award, but the inquiry is just a little higher than the martial arts of ordinary martial artists. ”

As Wei Xun expected, these soldiers who originally had a grudge against him now looked at him with admiration, and even ignored the existence of the Empress Dowager Ye Ningxiang, and kept whispering to each other, talking about this hidden Rongguo Gong.

"Today's competition, the palace is very fond of, all the soldiers who have achieved the rank in today's competition, each person will be rewarded with ten taels of gold and ten brocades. ”

"Empress Dowager Xie, Empress Dowager Chitose Chitose Chitose Chitose. ”

Ye Ningxiang, who had been exposed to the wind and sun outside the camp all day during the day, was lying on the bed in her camp tent tiredly at the moment, not wanting to move.

Because of the love pill, Ye Ningxiang only remembered that Wei Xun was Su Huang's cousin in her previous life, and she followed her father to participate in the war to support Turtle Whiskers, and she also remembered that he was indeed good at martial arts, but she forgot that his martial arts were so superb that it was almost difficult to meet opponents.

Therefore, when she saw Wei Xun knocking out the most skilled soldier in the competition in the blink of an eye, she was also as shocked as the other soldiers, and her heart couldn't calm down for a long time.

At the moment, although she was lying on the bed with her limbs relaxed, she was constantly thinking about things in her mind, thinking about things related to Wei Xun. For example, why does Wei Xun have such a high level of martial arts? For example, such a talented person who can write and martial arts is no longer used by her, what should she do?

Suddenly, a call from outside the tent broke Ye Ningxiang's thoughts.

"Chen Rongguo Gong Wei asked to see the Queen Mother. ”

"Come in. ”

While speaking, Ye Ningxiang had already gotten up, put on her coat, and sat on the wooden chair next to the table.

"Rong Guogong's performance in the ring today is really commendable!"

After praising Wei Xun, Ye Ningxiang pointed to the empty chair opposite her, and smiled while looking at Wei Xun: "Rong Guogong has something he wants to talk to the palace, but it doesn't hurt. ”

Wei Xun was thoughtful and deep-minded, since he could expect that showing his outstanding martial arts in front of everyone would accelerate the recognition of him by the entire southwest military camp, he naturally could also expect that Ye Ningxiang, who had drunk the love pill, would be suspicious and uneasy in his heart when he saw him show his extraordinary talent.

Therefore, it is imperative to explain to Ye Ningxiang in person and let Ye Ningxiang relax.

"Ningxiang. ”

Wei Xun did not call Ye Ningxiang the queen mother, but was very intimate, and seemed to call Ye Ningxiang's name directly with true feelings.

"Please believe me, everything I do is for you, and I will always be your most solid backing. ”

Seeing Wei Xun speak so seriously, Ye Ningxiang immediately understood that Wei Xun was afraid that she Ye Ningxiang would be uneasy in her heart, and deliberately came to reassure Ye Ningxiang. In this case, Ye Ningxiang naturally couldn't admit what she was thinking, so she deliberately looked at Wei Xun and smiled for a while.

"Brother Wei, what are you talking about, how can I not know how good you are to me? I know that even if the whole world betrays me, you will not betray me, not only will you not betray me, but you will also shed blood for me from the beginning, right?"

Ye Ningxiang patted Wei Xun's shoulder, her eyes were sincere, and she continued affectionately: "Brother Wei, thank you. ”

Wei Xun smiled, but did not speak again. Although he didn't want to admit it, the words thank you were really the biggest reward that Ye Ningxiang gave Wei Xun.

For the man who loves Ye Ningxiang as much as he does, Mu Xize is Ye Ningxiang's husband and Ye Ningxiang's favorite man, although Xiao Qingyu has become Ye Ningxiang's enemy, he has the grace of saving and nurturing Ye Ningxiang, and he can be regarded as an indispensable man in Ye Ningxiang's life.

But compared to these two people, what position did he Wei Xun have in Ye Ningxiang's heart?

No matter what, she would not have such thoughts about him, no matter how much he did silently behind his back, Ye Ningxiang would never be able to see him as an existence different from others, let alone leave a little place in her heart for him.

"I heard that Brother Wei and Princess Qingluan had an awkward quarrel and no longer live in the princess's mansion, but is it true?"

"Ah, what did you say?"

Because he had been thinking about things in his heart, Wei Xun did not hear Ye Ningxiang's question.

"I said you don't live in the princess's mansion anymore, is that true?"

Hearing Ye Ningxiang ask like this, Wei Xun deliberately avoided Ye Ningxiang's gaze, and lowered his voice and said, "Yes." ”

Ye Ningxiang sighed and comforted: "Brother Wei is not young, he should still have a family, and he should have his own heirs." These two people are together, they don't necessarily have to have a vigorous love, and the family affection that can keep each other for a lifetime is also extremely important. ”

Wei Xun didn't expect that the ruthless and unrighteous Ye Ningxiang would be able to say such words that seemed to see through love, and while he was shocked in his heart, he also quickly changed the topic and said: "Today's martial arts competition can be regarded as making me neutral in the Southwest Army, and in this situation, Xun feels that it is more important to be stationed in the military camp and capture the military heart of the 500,000 troops in the southwest." ”

"In this way, you and the princess of Qingluan"

Before Ye Ningxiang's words fell, Wei Xun forcibly interjected: "Compared with the love between men and women, and the affection between husband and wife, Xun feels that it is more important to win the hearts of the army and stabilize the regime. Besides, he had actually marched and fought with his uncle's army, and it would probably not be difficult to manage this 500,000 army. ”

Seeing Wei Xun's firm attitude, Ye Ningxiang no longer dissuaded her, and let Wei Xun stay in the southwest military camp and seize the power of the southwest military camp according to his own ideas.

For a while, Wei Xun had been living in the southwest military camp for more than a month, and the competition more than a month ago not only impressed the soldiers of the southwest military camp with admiration for him, but also made these soldiers regard him as a god-like existence. In the army, it is even rumored that Rong Guogong's martial arts are the best in the world, and the soldiers led by Rong Guogong must also be the first in the world.

Although Wei Xun has not yet made any military exploits, there are already some generals around him who look down on him because they worship his superb martial arts.

However, the more Wei Xun gained power, the more resentful Zhou Yin became, as a captain, Zhou Yin could not vent his anger and dissatisfaction to the soldiers, and held his grievances in his heart all day long, so that this heavy-minded Taiwei was seriously ill and had to return to Yingdu for medical treatment in advance.

But after all, he has been galloping in officialdom for decades like Feng Jingzhi, and it is naturally impossible to follow Wei Xun in vain. Now that he has embarked on the road of rebellion, if he can't take the opportunity of this trip south to expand his forces for himself, wouldn't it be in vain that he has endured in the military camp for more than a month?

Therefore, the night before he left the barracks, he deliberately summoned a fairly high-ranking general in the middle of the night when the soldiers were asleep.

"Captain Han, it's been a long time since we've met alone like this!"

The general's name is Han Zhongjun, a veteran who has been in the army for 30 years, this person is a little talented in leading troops to govern the army, but his emotional intelligence is low, and he doesn't know how to deal with things that can't be put on the table between people and officials. So he is nearly fifty years old, and this Han Zhongjun is just a captain, and he hasn't even become a general.

However, this Han Duwei has always been loyal to Zhou Yin, just because his official position as a Duwei was forcibly awarded to him by Zhou Yin with great effort. Such a great favor in his career, even if he Han Zhongjun loses his life, he must desperately repay it.

"My lord, you have asked the loyal army to come here, but what are your orders?"

Zhou Yin deliberately leaned in front of Han Zhongjun and whispered in Han Zhongjun's ear: "I want you to become Wei Xun's most trusted and most important person in this military camp." ”

"Yes...... But my lord, you know what kind of person I am, Rong Guogong will not reuse someone like me who doesn't know how to be flexible. ”

"Rong Guogong is different from ordinary people, the more you don't know how to be flexible, the more you stick to yourself and be stubborn, the easier it is for you to gain his trust. ”

"Okay, Xia Guan will live up to the high expectations of adults. ”

Zhou Yin helped Han Zhongjun, who was kneeling on the ground, with a grim smile, and his tone of voice revealed a hint of sternness and even warning.

"But Captain Han, you don't have to forget who is your real master!"

Zhou Yin said this, no matter how stupid Han Zhongjun was, he could know Zhou Yin's true intentions, and after saying a lot of loyal words to Zhou Yin one after another, Han Zhongjun respectfully withdrew from Zhou Yin's camp.

As a person like Han Zhongjun who is old and has no hope for a career, being able to be reused by his top boss can be regarded as a reward for his hard work over the years. So even though it was for Zhou Yin, Han Zhongjun's heart was still very happy.

"This ginger is really still old and spicy! Lord Zhou's move is really high!"

Feng Yi clapped his hands and appeared from behind the tent screen, with an approving smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Virtuous nephew, it's too early to applaud now, and I don't know if that stupid Han Zhongjun who only knows how to work with brute force can be reused by Wei Xun. ”

"Lord Zhou, don't worry, you must know that you are not the only one who is fighting, Princess Qingluan and His Royal Highness King Wu will support you with all their might. ”

Seeing Feng Yi bowing respectfully to himself, Zhou Yin was a little fluttering, and while brushing his beard, he laughed and said, "Okay, now we are waiting for the time to kill Ye Ningxiang, the evil woman, and the milky cripple together, and re-smooth the situation in this world." ”
