59. The Traitorous General

Gou Xiong didn't know that what he saw these days was what Yan Chu wanted them to see.

After all, people are selfish. What kind of friendship can truly unconditionally give to others? Anyway, there are not many fools like the Yan family in the world.

Therefore, Yan Chu must let his subordinates who were once loyal to him see hope and shake their determination.

When Gou Xiong stood up to speak for him, Yan Chu knew that the time had come.

Since he wanted to regain those people, he absolutely could not refuse Chen Zhao's request for a martial arts competition at this moment.

Before setting off this time, he asked someone to inquire about all the generals whose names were mentioned in the wedding procession, and Chen Zhao was one of them.

It can be said that he received no less favors from the Yan family than anyone else, but after Yan Chu's accident, the other party was the first to stand up and break away from him in a clear-cut manner. Now the master of the family is Fu Cong. Within a few months, he went from being a fourth-rank general Anton to a third-rank general Zhendong. It can be said that he has risen from the ground.

You must know that the promotion of military officers is not as casual as that of civil servants. Most of them are achieved by hard work. There has been no war in recent months. Chen Zhao was promoted to two levels at once. Fu Cong is telling others that following him is better than following Yan. Chu is more promising.

Fortunately, most people are not so greedy. They are also afraid that if Fu Cong can treat the Yan family who was once kind to him so ruthlessly, he will treat them how he will treat them in the future. Although there is no evidence that the person who framed Yan Chu is related to him. But he is the one who has the greatest benefit, no matter who he suspects.

Chen Zhao couldn't wait to stand up at this time, which only made people feel that Fu Cong had a bad character and was not trustworthy.

Who would believe that Fu Cong was not behind the instructions for today's drama?

"Okay, but my hands and feet haven't regained their dexterity yet, and the sword has no eyes. Let's stop here."

At this time, Yan Chu had changed into light casual clothes. The blue-gray satin robe made his tall and straight figure stand out under the candlelight. His handsome features and resolute and easy-going expression made everyone present feel impressed by his magnanimity. Surrender.

The young man in front of him was only nineteen years old, but he had gone through hardships that no one could imagine. Faced with the deliberate provocation from his old subordinates, he did not back down, but chose to agree. How magnanimous this was.

Even though the fight hasn't started yet, in the hearts of most people, Chen Zhao has already lost.

"Princess?"

The little palace maid next to Zhou Mingli looked at the princess who suddenly grabbed her, and asked doubtfully, didn't the other party just let her go down to say that the noise outside was too noisy and made those people disperse, why did she grab her again now.

"No need. The soldiers are tired from running around for days, so let them relax for a while."

Zhou Mingli looked at the tall young man not far away, and felt a sense of pride in her heart. This was the man she liked. No matter what the environment, he was an upright hero.

She waved her hand and dismissed the little palace maid, while she was still standing by the window, not knowing what she was looking at.

"My subordinates have all forgotten that the young general's hands and feet are broken. It is extremely difficult to walk now. It's a sin. What I said just now is that the subordinates drank too much and forgot. Otherwise, he is just like the young general." As I said, the sword has no eyes, what should you do if I hurt you?"

A man like Chen Zhao who was unhappy when people mentioned his old name naturally had extremely low self-esteem. Even though he looked honest and honest, in fact he had been jealous of the man in front of him who was more than ten years younger than him a long time ago. years old.

Why was he born into the prominent Yan family, why was he outstanding in every way but dragged down by his poor family background? Everyone praised him and admired him, but they never thought about what would happen if they were born in such a family and received such treatment since childhood. Will he be better than the young man in front of him if he is trained?

Therefore, he was not grateful at all for the help that the other party had given him, including the money that had saved his father. It was only a mere ten taels of silver. Considering the other party's status, it was only the price of a meal and a meal. It was not surprising.

"Chen Erniu, don't touch your nose or face."

Gou Xiong patted the table, picked up his saber, pointed it at Chen Zhao and said, He had also drank a lot of wine just now. I don't know whether it was because of the alcohol or the anger, his face was red.

"It doesn't matter."

Yan Chu held Gou Xiong down, and he took the shoulder handed to him by the attendant on the side. Without making any gestures, he slowly pulled the sword out of its scabbard. The movements that were supposed to be sharp were performed tepidly. Chen Zhao curled his lips, and the disdain in his eyes became a little stronger.

"I still can't use my penis, so I'll compete with you with my sword." Yan Chu's recovery speed is already faster than that of ordinary people. If he can still use his penis to make a tiger powerful, his physique will be too abnormal, so he Choosing a relatively lightweight sword would not arouse too much suspicion.

"Then you're welcome, my subordinate." Chen Zhao didn't say much. He borrowed a sword from the guard on the side and decided to fight quickly. He was a useless man. If he couldn't beat a useless man, he wasn't. Even worse than a useless person? How could General Fu take a fancy to him in the future?

Chen Zhao was born as an ordinary country boy with mud-legged legs. It would be bluffing to say how many exquisite moves he could perform. He relied on his own brute strength and luck to reach his current position.

Therefore, in the competition with Yan Chu, most of his moves were straightforward. In front of a real master, there were many flaws, and he looked down on Yan Chu from the beginning. Before the two of them fought for 20 rounds, his right hand holding the sword was cut by Yan Chu's sword. Because of the pain, he subconsciously loosened the weapon in his hand.

"Thank you."

Yan Chu's training these days was not in vain. Although he did not have Yan Chu's memory after he was sixteen years old, his skills in the first sixteen years were enough for Yan Chu to deal with the arrogant Chen Zhao in front of him.

These days, his training was not only to deceive others, but also to familiarize himself with the skills of the original body as soon as possible. After all, there is a difference between memory and practice.

Yan Chu stopped the fight when the weapon in his hand fell, and turned to walk towards his position.

The scene just now was seen by everyone present. If they just admired Yan Chu just now, their mood now can only be described as turbulent.

Although Chen Zhao was reckless and lost to Yan Chu so quickly this time because he underestimated his opponent, Yan Chu was able to maintain a calm mentality when the situation was not favorable to him, avoiding Chen Zhao's attacks again and again, and attacking at the most appropriate time. This boy's scheming was far better than everyone present.

Everyone realized at this time that there was a reason why the young man in front of them could be crowned as an undefeated general at an age that was not yet a crown.

Gou Xiong was the most excited among the people present. His decision was not wrong. As long as he gave the young general more time, he would give everyone a young general who was respected by all of them. Fu Cong was not even worthy of carrying shoes for the young general.

Chen Zhao looked at the long sword wound on his palm, still in a daze, listening to the discussions of the people around him, a great sense of shame swept over his body, and he picked up the sword that fell on the ground and stabbed Yan Chu without thinking.

"Little——"

Zhou Mingli looked at this scene and was about to call out, but Yan Chu's reaction was faster than her.

Before Chen Zhao's sword touched Yan Chu, Yan Chu turned around and pointed the sword in his hand at Chen Zhao's throat. The sword went into his throat and a few drops of blood flowed out.

With his excellent reaction, Chen Zhao's sneak attack not only made him a laughing stock in the army, but also made Yan Chu's name frequently mentioned in the wedding procession again.

This time, he was no longer the pitiful General Yan in the mouths of the soldiers, but became the dazzling General Yan in everyone's mouth again. Everyone began to believe that as long as he was given time, he could rebuild the glory of the Yan family.

*****

"General Yan."

It was late at night and everyone had rested except the patrolling soldiers. Yan Chu took a jar of wine and sat in the courtyard of the post station, looking at the full moon and in a daze.

It had been nearly three months since he came to this world, but the contact with 007 had never been restored.

He had already started his plan, but he didn't know whether his plan was in line with the wishes of the wishers in this world.

While he was lost in thought, Zhou Mingli quietly walked to his side, took the jar of wine next to him, and drank from the bottle.

It was still late winter, and it was night, the temperature was very low, Zhou Mingli was wearing a silver fox fur cloak, under the moonlight, the furry cloak made her face look smaller, and also made this face, which was already very exotic, more charming and less cold.

"Didn't the princess rest?" Yan Chu looked at the wine taken away by the other party, not knowing whether to take it back.

They seemed to kiss indirectly, or did the ancients not care about this?

"I know what General Yan meant."

Zhou Mingli took out a piece of paper from his arms, but he didn't know what was written on it.

"I only hope that after the matter is accomplished, the general can spare my father's life."

She was not surprised by the murderous intent that flashed in Yan Chu's eyes, but she felt more happy in her heart. Sure enough, what the other party thought was exactly the same as what she guessed.

She had no feelings for the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty. She was the only one who was out of tune with the most noble family in the world. She was not a saint and would not forgive those who had bullied her. However, the King of Zhou still had some feelings for her. Although that love was also earned by her efforts, he was not a qualified monarch, but a benevolent monarch.

"I don't understand what the princess said."

Yan Chu was a little surprised at the sharpness of the princess, but because of her identity, his first reaction was that the princess was bombing him.

"Yan Chu, you are a hero. I hope you can give the people of the world, not just the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty, a truly peaceful and healthy world."

Zhou Mingli smiled slightly, she stood up, walked around the stone table, and walked towards Yan Chu, who also stood up subconsciously.

"I believe you, you can do it."

She looked up at the man she had been thinking about. Perhaps it was the strength given to her by the wine just now. She tiptoed and gently kissed him on the lips.

Just treat it as her last indulgence.
