"I'm afraid you've forgotten how to fight a war after being a noble for so long. Bandits can even steal your supplies. The longer you live, the more you live," Wen Zaifou said calmly. At this time, the nobles all looked at Lü Shu, who was next to Wen Zaifou …
"Negative emotion value from Peng Zhiming, + 666 …"
"Negative emotion value from …"
Lü Shu silently remembered these people's faces and names. These were the 12 most powerful nobles in the southern part of Nanzhou. Perhaps they could work together in the future.
Wen Zaifou suddenly said, "Why are you looking at him? He's Commander Wu Weijun, not a bandit."
The nobles were stunned. They did not believe that Emperor Of Heaven did not know the details. Therefore, when Emperor Of Heaven said this, it meant that he was going to protect Wu Weijun. From now on, Wu Weijun would be Wu Weijun, and the bandit who got rich would have nothing to do with them!
"Yes, yes, yes, Emperor Of Heaven is right," the group of nobles said hurriedly.
"The 12 nobles in the southern part of Nanzhou are all here. Just nice, you lost the cities. Then take ten cities from the Blackfeather Army and bring them back to me," Wen Zaifou said. "If you can't get them, then don't come back."
The nobles did not expect the punishment to be so heavy this time. Even if these 12 nobles had a lot of assets, they could not afford to fight all the way to Nanzhou.
If they lost, there might be an even heavier punishment. Even if they won, they would be skinned!
However, after being stunned for a moment, they braced themselves and replied, "We obey Emperor Of Heaven's orders!"
Who dared to say no at this time? It was clear that Emperor Of Heaven wanted to give them a warning.
Usually, this Emperor Of Heaven was most annoyed by his subordinates who liked to play tricks. Moreover, he was focused on cultivation and rarely involved himself in political affairs. There were pros and cons to this matter. Once there was merit, there would be a great reward, and everyone wouldn't have to be on tenterhooks every day.
The twelve great nobles came in a hurry and left in a hurry. When they left, one of them complained in the air, "It's all because you seven were greedy and wanted to occupy these five passes. In the end, the five of us had to clean up after you!"
Previously, only seven great nobles had participated in this matter.
"It seems like this Wu Weijun has caught the eye of the Emperor Of Heaven. Don't provoke them! This time, the Emperor Of Heaven's punishment is so severe. Maybe he has the intention to help Wu Weijun ascend the throne! "
Someone retorted, "How could we have known that the Emperor Of Heaven would come to Wu Weijun's place as soon as he came out of seclusion? Also, when did we provoke Wu Weijun? They were the ones who started it! "
One of the great nobles felt extremely aggrieved. It was clearly their noble army that had been starving for half a month. Who was the one who provoked who?!
Therefore, when the Blackfeather Army had just returned to Western Province, Li Liang was just about to take a breather before returning to Western Province to unload his armor and resign. In the end, before he could even catch his breath, the nobles' army from Southern Province had already charged over in large numbers.
Li Liang felt uncomfortable. Was it so difficult for him to leave?
On Mount Lu King, after the great nobles had left, Wen Zaifou asked curiously, "You're saying that you don't want the city that they've been yearning for?"
"I really don't want it," Lü Shu said seriously, "Can you let them guard the city? I'll just collect taxes …"
At this moment, Zhang Weiyu suddenly whispered something to Lü Shu. Lü Shu said, "We want Cloud's Peace City."
"Okay." Wen Zaifou nodded. "Then I'll give it to you guys in Nangeng City."
"Not you, wait a minute, I'm talking about Cloud's Peace City!" Lü Shu said in shock. Are you f * cking deaf?
As a result, Wen Zaifou had no intention of paying attention to Lü Shu at all. He turned around and stepped out as if there was an endless void behind him. His entire person disappeared into thin air.
Lü Shu was stunned for a long time. What kind of trick was this? Was it a unique trick of the Divine Treasure Realm?
In the next moment, Lü Shu smiled and said, "This method is quite effective. By the way, has he always been like this?"
They had discussed this three days ago. If the Celestial Thearch decided to reward them based on merit, they would take down Southern Geng City. However, they couldn't say what they wanted directly … because Wen Zai Nuo wouldn't give them what they wanted directly.
At first, Lü Shu wondered if this was to prevent people from planning something. In the end, Zhang Weiyu said that it was not the case. Wen Zaifou liked to tease people and make them look surprised.
"By the way, this Emperor Of Heaven used to be your instructor?" Lü Shu asked curiously. "The Old Divine King should have trusted him very much. Why did he send him out to become the Emperor Of Heaven?"
"Because the Old Divine King was too annoyed with him …" Zhang Weiyu said calmly. "He didn't want to see him, so he told him to stay away …"
Lü Shu was dumbfounded. How could such a thing happen?
Zhang Weiyu said solemnly, "In the past, our hiding place in Field Ridge Town has never been discovered by the Blackfeather Army, but this time is different. It seems that the Blackfeather Army is going to our hiding place. I very much suspect that he deliberately revealed our location to force us to show up."
"Does he want to kill you?" Lü Shu was puzzled. Combining Wen Zaifou's previous performance with what Zhang Weiyu said, Zhang Weiyu's speculation was not impossible.
"He thinks that we have suffered too much, so he doesn't want us to stay in Field Ridge Town." Zhang Weiyu sighed and said, "I even suspect that his declaration of being in closed-door training was fake. It's very likely that he has been paying attention to this battle all along. Otherwise, how could he be so aware of what's going on in the outside world?"
Lü Shu thought about it. If that was really the case, then the Emperor Of Heaven had probably seen everything that the great aristocrats had done. Perhaps it was Wen Zaifou who had nothing better to do and wanted to tidy them up.
After living for so long, one would always come up with some strange and wicked hobbies when they had nothing better to do. Otherwise, how would one pass the time …
However, Lü Shu still felt that something was not right. Because Liu Yizhao had misunderstood his identity, he had been worried that Wen Zaifou would think the same. Moreover, no one knew whether Wen Zaifou was a friend or a foe.
But as soon as Zhang Weiyu had explained it, the other party had gone along with it. It was as if everything had been a little too easy.
Lü Shu felt a little melancholy. He was such a low-profile person, so how had he gotten involved with the Emperor Of Heaven?
Not long after the Emperor Of Heaven had left, slaves from the great aristocrats arrived in the afternoon. When they saw Lü Shu, they beamed with joy and said, "Congratulations on taking Southern Geng City, Commandant. My master has specially asked us to prepare gifts to congratulate you. He hopes that we can all help each other in the future and let bygones be bygones."
Lü Shu glanced at the twelve great aristocrats. Each of them had brought out a million godnotes as a congratulatory gift!
Considering that Lü Shu had previously ordered Liu Yizhao and Li Heitan to beat up a slave, Zhang Weiyu was a little worried that Lü Shu would ruin the relationship between Wu Weijun and the great aristocrats. After all, it was always better to have more friends than more enemies.
But before he could persuade Lü Shu, he saw Lü Shu grab the slave's hand and say, "Go back and tell your master that we're brothers from now on! Brothers! "
