"Oh, it's Master Zuo from the Yellow Gate! Blazing Sun from the Yellow Gate greets Master. "
Yang Rui seemed to have understood the situation. No wonder they were so arrogant. They were the guards of Zuo Feng from the Yellow Gate! As for the prisoner carriage from before, it was very likely that the prisoner was Lu Zhi from the North Division!
"Oh, you still remember me, little friend. I wonder if you have completed the task that I entrusted to you the last time? "
Zuo Feng got down from the carriage and took the initiative to mention the task that he entrusted to Yang Rui.
"Of course it's done! I was looking for an opportunity to hand it over to Master Zuo … "
Although most people did not have a good impression of Zuo Feng, Yang Rui still completed the task that he entrusted to him in time.
In fact, the task that Zuo Feng entrusted to Yang Rui was not that difficult. It was just that it was a little strange. The last time Zuo Feng met Yang Rui, who was practicing his spear, in Juping City's First Fragrance of Incense. After they got to know each other, Zuo Feng asked Yang Rui to find him 100 'Tiger Whips' and promised to reward him if he could complete the task.
Yang Rui thought, 'Why would a eunuch want that?!' However, since the task was hard to come by, Yang Rui agreed to it. Recently, when Yang Rui was eliminating the Yellow Turban in various places, he had encountered quite a number of Tiger Penises and had accumulated some quest items. At the same time, after Yang Rui received the task, he had also asked Wang Hai to collect the quest items for the soldiers who were leveling up in Mountain Town.
Therefore, Yang Rui had more than 100 quest items in his hands. He had kept them in his backpack and was only waiting for the opportunity to hand in the task to Zuo Feng!
"… Blazing Sun will do his best to complete the task that Master Zuo gave me!"
As he said that, Yang Rui took out 100 quest items from his backpack and handed them to Zuo Feng. He handed them over to Zuo Feng.
"Oh! Not bad! Blazing Sun is taking this seriously! "
Zuo Feng took the quest item from Blazing Sun and looked at it in front of everyone, causing the surrounding soldiers to be surprised and puzzled. Seeing that Zuo Feng was very concerned, Yang Rui was even more puzzled. What use does Zuo Feng have for this item?
"Yes! Very good! Some of the items that Blazing Sun found were actually High Grade Substandard items. I have to thank you properly! "
After looking through it for a while, Zuo Feng put away the quest item with satisfaction and patted Yang Rui's shoulder with appreciation.
In fact, Yang Rui already knew that among the 100 quest items he handed over, a few of them were grade 9! Who would have thought that Zuo Feng valued it so much! Among the remaining items that Yang Rui had left behind, all of them were High Grade. The lowest was Rank-9, and the rest were all Rank-8!
"What kind of reward does Blazing Sun want?"
"Just a small matter …"
"Hahaha, not bad! Not bad! "
Zuo Feng seemed to be very satisfied with Yang Rui's attitude. After looking around, he said, "This is not the place to talk. Blazing Sun, why don't you come with me to the town ahead for a chat? "
"This …"
Yang Rui didn't know how to answer for a moment. He had been chasing Huangfu Song and Cao Cao all the way, but he couldn't catch up with them. If he delayed any longer, it would be difficult to catch up with them before the battle of Guangzong started!
"Looking at the situation, Blazing Sun is rushing to meet up with General Zuo Zhonglang's troops! If that's the case, I can tell you. Huangfu Song is also staying in Guangping City and won't be heading north for a while! So Blazing Sun can rest assured and have a few cups of tea with me. "
Zuo Feng seemed to have guessed something, smiled slightly, and said noncommittally.
Although he didn't know if Zuo Feng's words were accurate, a few words were exactly what Yang Rui was thinking, which made Yang Rui admire him a little. Since he said so, even if it was really a delay, Yang Rui couldn't refuse anymore. If that was the case, it was very likely that he would offend Zuo Feng!
General Zuo Zhonglang Lu Zhi was a powerful person! If he offended Zuo Feng, he would still be dismissed. Escorted back to the capital! Moreover, according to Zuo Feng's meaning, if Yang Rui didn't go, it was likely that there would be no mission reward!
"Then I'll have to trouble Master Zuo!"
Yang Rui finally agreed and followed Zuo Feng's convoy to a small town more than 30 miles away. There was no decent reception in the small town, so Zuo Feng actually requisitioned the town's council room. He made tea and chatted with Yang Rui.
The people in the prisoner carriage were directly thrown into the rain by Zuo Feng, which showed how ruthless he was! Yang Rui almost couldn't restrain himself from questioning Zuo Feng. However, after thinking about it, Yang Rui wasn't sure of the identity of the person being escorted, nor did he know the reason for the person being detained! Previously, Yang Rui guessed that the person being detained was Lu Zhi, but he wasn't very sure.
"Try a cup of Yangzhou's Pre-Ming Tea first!"
After the two of them sat down in the town's council room and fiddled with the tea, Zuo Feng said.
Yang Rui had tasted Zuo Feng's tea before, so he knew the benefits. Naturally, he didn't refuse, picked up the tea and tasted it.
"System Notification: You have received the special effect of West Lake Longjing Tea. Intelligence attribute temporarily increased by 10 points for 4 hours!"
Sure enough, the effect of the tea this time was even better than the previous time! When the tea entered his mouth, not only did it temporarily increase his intelligence attribute, but it also tasted very elegant and fragrant. The taste was indeed extraordinary!
"Is this tea still drinkable?"
Zuo Feng seized the opportunity to ask.
"It's really good tea!"
Yang Rui praised. He thought to himself that it would be difficult to find such natural, pollution-free, and high-grade tea leaves in the real world! Yang Rui unconsciously drank a few more cups.
"This tea was harvested on the day before Qingming Festival, before dawn, at the peak of the tea mountain by a 15-year-old girl who hasn't gone through the hairpin ceremony! Moreover, only a small handful can be harvested each time, and it has to be transported down the mountain before dawn so that it won't lose its Spiritual Qi … "
When it came to tea, Zuo Feng was naturally very good at it. He explained the whole process of harvesting, frying, and transporting the tea in detail! Yang Rui nodded as he listened.
"Speaking of which, Blazing Sun is really a capable person. I haven't seen you for two or three months, and you've already become a General!"
After talking about the tea ceremony, Zuo Feng then remembered about the mission reward.
"Thank you for the compliment, Master Zuo. Blazing Sun is ashamed! I hope you can give me some guidance … "
Yang Rui just answered casually. He was waiting for Zuo Feng to mention the reward.
"Haha, no problem, no problem!"
Zuo Feng laughed. "For a capable person like Blazing Sun, I have the intention of recommending you to the higher-ups."
"If that's the case, Blazing Sun will thank Master Zuo first!"
Blazing Sun didn't react until now. This little yellow man was a popular person who often walked in front of the emperor. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to easily shake up a general like the Northern Commander! Thus, Yang Rui simply took out 100 gold coins from his backpack and handed it over without batting an eyelid.
Although Yang Rui's wealth wasn't as poor as before, and taking out a thousand gold coins was nothing to him, there were still many things that he needed to spend money on. Moreover, spending money on people like Zuo Feng was really not what Yang Rui wanted!
"Now, there is one more thing that I want to entrust to Blazing Sun. If Blazing Sun can do this well, I will definitely put in a few good words for Blazing Sun in front of the other secretaries. I must give Blazing Sun a decent official position! "
"Master Zuo, please speak! Blazing Sun will definitely do his best! "
From the beginning to the end, Yang Rui had a sincere appearance. If the same situation happened in reality, Yang Rui probably wouldn't be able to make such an attitude. Now it was just a game, acting was just acting. Moreover, people like Zuo Feng shouldn't have many good days ahead of them. Yang Rui was just using him as a trading partner.
However, the next thing that Zuo Feng entrusted to him was really contrary to Yang Rui's original intentions!
"Although there are many yellow turbans in Ji Province, their strength is limited! Northern Commander Lu Zhi delayed the opportunity. Therefore, a month ago, after our inspection, we reported the situation back to the court. Tian Yan was furious and sent us here to arrest you … "
Zuo Feng explained in a low voice. Yang Rui first confirmed that the person in the prisoner carriage was Lu Zhi without a doubt!
"… After Lu Zhi was convicted, the Great Han Emperor conferred Dong Zhuo as Eastern Commander to take over Lu Zhi's duties. At present, Dong Zhuo has just arrived and doesn't understand the strength of the yellow turbans. Therefore, it is difficult for him to do anything in a short period of time! When Lu Zhi was taken away, he asserted that 'Dong Zhuo is the one who will delay the opportunity'!
I am afraid that if this is true, it will give Lu Zhi a reason to block everyone's mouth! Therefore, I hope that Blazing Sun can help Dong Zhuo. So that the battle between him and Zhang Jiao can start as soon as possible. It would be best if it can be settled in one battle! This way, Lu Zhi will be convinced … "
It wasn't until Zuo Feng explained clearly that Yang Rui understood his intention — — he wants to force Lu Zhi into a dead end!
"I have met Eastern Commander Huangfu Song and Cavalry Officer Cao Cao, but both of them are old friends with Lu Zhi and will not send troops to help Dong Zhuo in time! Therefore, I have predicted that Huangfu Song and Cao Cao will inevitably settle down in Guang Ping City. And they will not rush to fight Zhang Jiao!
In this way, Blazing Sun will be able to catch up with them! However, I think that Blazing Sun can go to Eastern Commander Dong Zhuo. I can write a letter to Dong Zhuo to make him treat Blazing Sun well!
If Blazing Sun can lead Huangfu Song and Cao Cao to fight Zhang Jiao in advance, that would be the best, but it will not be easy! "
In the end, Zuo Feng directly took out a pen and paper, wrote a letter to Dong Zhuo on the spot, and handed it to Yang Rui as proof that Yang Rui will go to Dong Zhuo.
"… Blazing Sun will go all out! But I am afraid my strength is limited, and it will be difficult to achieve Lord Zuo's wish … "
Regarding Zuo Feng's plan to harm people, Yang Rui did not explicitly reject it, but he still left enough leeway.
"Blazing Sun, don't worry, what I said is only a suggestion. When the time comes, it will all depend on Blazing Sun to act according to the circumstances. As long as you can find a way to make the battle break out within 20 days, I think the Minister should be satisfied …"
Zuo Feng comforted Yang Rui again. From his words, Yang Rui captured a trace of information. The matter of plotting against Lu Zhi was not a coincidence, it was most likely discussed by the group of eunuchs!
