Chapter 78 Excuses
Yang Tian put aside all the matters at hand and threw them to several deputy generals and staff officers, and brought only a hundred confidants including Long Feng. He rode his horse and galloped for two days and two nights to Qiong Daotian's defense zone. Qiong Daotian was sitting steadily in his central army tent to click troops. Wen Yuan sent him millions of new elite soldiers from the Celestial Empire. He was busy preparing for the camp issues of these troops that had not arrived. Near his camp, more than 100,000 soldiers cooperated with the soldiers of the Qiong family to work hard. After all, it was not easy to build ground in winter.
After hearing the news that Yang Tian brought people to ask for a visit, Qiong Daotian pondered about a cup of tea and waved his hand to let all the generals in the tent retreat, leaving only his two uncles and three cousins, all important figures of the Qiong family. Then he smiled and greeted the door of the tent.
Yang Tian only brought Long Feng in alone. When he arrived at the tent, he did not say anything polite. He saluted Qiong Daotian and said, "Boss Qiong, I want you to help you... You can do it. Anyway, if you help me, I will always remember your advantage in the future."
Qiong Daotian pulled the skin quietly, vaguely showing a smile-like expression, patted the thick stack of military information reports on the table in front of him, and said lazily: "Brother Yang, is your subordinates causing trouble again? Didn't I persuade you last time? Your subordinates are too much. Of course, most of your subordinates are good, but I think those young men still need strict discipline."
Yang Tian glared at him for a while, Qiong Daotian looked at him without blinking, looking innocent and unexplained. Yang Tian suddenly laughed: "Well, ten million taels of gold, can you help me? Don't say too much, just a post to Shengjing."
Qiong Daotian nodded repeatedly: "This is no problem. I immediately told Wenshuai that you spared the military stick under your command, 10 million taels of gold. It's too much money. You don't need to have that much. Just treat me to a local specialty barbecue wild bird."
Yang Tian almost pounced on him and said viciously: "I don't believe you haven't heard the news. To be honest, what the hell do you want to help. Let me say something ugly first. If I am sent back to Shengjing to be an extremely leisurely prince, don't blame me for making trouble with your Qiong family in the future and taking you back to rebel anytime and anywhere."
Qiong Daotian's face changed slightly. Several Qiong's generals around him were already wandering in their eyes. Seeing that Yang Tian was about to take people out, Qiong Daotian quickly stopped him: "Brother Yang, stay, stay, why do you have to do this? Discuss carefully and discuss... What are you doing? Brother Yang has been here for so long, but he doesn't even have a chair?"
His two cousins quickly carried out two large chairs from the back tent and placed them in front of Qiong Daotian's desk. Long Feng snorted coldly, without taking a seat, his fingers bounced slightly, and the whole large chair turned into ashes in an instant, without any residue left. He said coldly: "Master Qiong Hou, I think we should make it clear as soon as possible. We treat you well on weekdays, and we don't need these little tricks. After all, we are not fools, aren't we?"
Qiong Daotian looked deeply at the location of the big sandalwood chair that moment ago, calculated whether it was possible for his full force to achieve such amazing effect, shook his head and said, "Master Longfeng, indeed, I can't hide it deeply, carry the chair again. We should also talk about it carefully. Many things must be explained clearly."
Long Feng took his seat, Yang Tian looked at Qiong Daotian and said, "I only have a document you have to give to Emperor Tianyou. No matter what you say in it, I must stay here anyway... It wouldn't be that I worked hard for so long and finally transferred me back to Shengjing to work as a free job? Then I might as well..."
Qiong Daotian hurriedly shrewd, "Be careful... I think it's a bit unfair to talk about this, but Brother Yang's performance really makes the big men of the court feel uneasy. If Brother Yang loses all day long, then there will be no such trouble... Hum?"
Yang Tian shook his head: "If I lose all day long, even if I conquer the Black Cloud Empire in the future, I'm afraid I'll be the governor of a county and province at most. What's the benefit? To be honest, I just want to keep a memorial between you and General Wen Yuanwen."
Qiong Daotian thought for a long time and said slowly: "Is it possible? The imperial edict requires you to set off immediately, and you can delay at most ten days, but if we send our documents back, we will not reply to it in at least a month. At that time, you will be against the imperial edict and you will be a death sentence."
Yang Tian frowned, thought for a while, licked his lips and said, "Then, you have to try to keep me. So I will send me out to fight skeletons, zombies, or reconnaissance of the Black Cloud Empire army, all of which are good. In short, I want to stay."
Qiong Daotian slowly stroked the golden paperweight on the table, nodded and said, "If Brother Yang can successfully serve as the Grand Governor or Lord in the future, what benefits can I give me the Qiong family? For ten million taels of gold, I, Qiong Daotian, can also prepare my own account room, so I don't need to be punished with brother Yang."
Yang Tian laughed: "Then we have to see what benefits you want. The territory of your Qiong family is in the north of Liuhua Continent, tens of thousands of miles away from here. What benefits can I give you?"
Qiong Daotian smiled: "Our Qiong family, although they are known as the leader of the 13 founding heroes, are also unsatisfactory in the fiefdom. They can barely let the clan live. In the court, there is such a little reputation... But, after all, there are people in the court who are easy to be an official. Our Qiong family also wants to intervene in those special, first- and second-rank officials to take care of their own business. This is not an exaggeration. Unfortunately, there is no one in our Qiong family who can ask for it. You know this court, it is very complicated. Otherwise, Brother Yang would not have been rushed to be transferred back because of several victories, right?"
Yang Tian caught his words without blinking: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say. I still have a few people I know in the court. I can still help. Isn't it easy to get an official? Xiao Zeng's father seems to have sold so many officials, so he doesn't care how many places he has placed for me, right?"
He nodded slightly, and said slightly, Qiong Daotian bounced his slender fingers on the table, as if they were white jade, and said coldly: "Then this is a matter. In addition, I don't know where Brother Yang wants to be the governor? Where is his favorite place?"
Long Feng said coldly: "It is the current area, which is 3,673 miles long, 450 miles widest, and 320 miles narrowest... If the width can be increased by 200 miles, it will be the best."
Qiong Daotian slapped the two lion heads and swallowed the gold mouth, and suddenly stood up: "Then, if you give 30 million taels of gold to my Qiong family every year, how about I help Brother Yang?"
Yang Tian smiled and grabbed Qiong Daotian's hand tightly. The two of them smiled treacherously at the same time and said in unison: "The deal." Yang Tian also praised him: "Boss Qiong is worthy of being the person who has the most hope of inheriting the position of the head of the family. He is really devoted to his family. This court, hehe..."
Qiong Daotian sneered a few times without feeling, as if he suddenly thought of something, saying: "But, Brother Yang still has to get back on the boat. Of course, it is not necessary to slow down the boat. When I carefully compile a book and send it to the court, I can almost call my brothers back halfway."
Yang Tian nodded, yelled a few times, and said no goodbye, just took Long Feng out. Qiong Daotian was simply not allowed to leave him with tea or have a meal.
After riding a horse for more than twenty miles, Yang Tian said extremely coldly: "In the future, the first thing to do is to kill Qiong Daotian." Long Feng nodded slowly and said coldly: "This person... Maybe he will be the one who rebels with you in the future. At that time, it will be hard to say. Their Qiong family has been in so much prosperity, and it would be really strange if they are still content with being a guardian dog in the north."
Without any rest, Yang Tian rushed back to his station overnight and quickly summoned a group of elites from the Guards who were raving and fighting wildly, and bluffed loudly, "Brothers, Shengjing has an order, and all the people in our Guards will be transferred back... Fuck, I don't know which bastard actually made a report on Shengjing, saying that the people in our Guards are all borers from the country, and they embezzled and accepted bribes along the way. I don't know how much gold, silver and jewelry we have to go back to be investigated by Shengjing Mansion. What do you think?"
Thousands of young men immediately exploded the nest, pulled out their own sword and yelled wildly: "Damn it, that bastard dares to ruin our brothers' affairs and kill him."
Zeng Guoxuan roared angrily: "Damn it, are you the immortals of the Censor? Brothers, hurry up and send letters to their old men or uncles. Damn, we are so powerful that we have not yet harvested enough gold, silver, jewelry and beautiful girls. How can we go back like this? Damn, kill those bastards who are asking us for trouble."
The members of the Guards Group were like a group of mad dogs who were about to lose their flesh and bones in front of them, and rushed into their room with a roar and writing quickly. In less than a meal, more than 20,000 letters to the officials of the Shengjing court were handed over to Yang Tian. The names of the recipients were of all kinds, and the officials of the Shengjing Temple in the Tian Chao were almost beaten up.
Yang Tian did not waste time. He put these envelopes that were enough to destroy the censors' family into more than twenty special emergency military scrolls, put them on the secret notes of Zeng Guoxuan and his family's Grand Secretary's Mansion, and handed them over to a guardian of Hei Tian Lao Gui, and teleported them back on the spot.
After disbanding this group of young men who were about to go crazy, regardless of what they were going to have fun, Yang Tian said to Long Feng proudly: "Look, fuck, I just glanced at some of their letters. Someone was counting how many benefits he had gotten, begging his father to help, and must not transfer himself back now... Hehe, these Shengjings are lively."
Long Feng nodded: "Yes, although it must be that guy named Tianhu is making a fool inside, as long as the court officials report the memorial together, and Qiong Daotian and Wenyuan's letter of guaranteed memorial, you don't have to go back to Shengjing."
Yang Tian smiled strangely: "But you still have to do face skills."
Long Feng nodded: "Yes, we should go back to Shengjing to reciting our posts as the emperor wishes. As for whether we can go to Shengjing, it is a natural disaster and it has nothing to do with us." The two of them laughed gloomy at the same time.
Suddenly, the old ghost of Hei Tian came from the gate: "Damn, who said he had transferred the Yang family boy back to Shengjing? He still owed me more than 900 beautiful virgins. Damn, can you want to pay the debt? Absolutely not, Damn, you have to leave it for me, and you will talk about it when you pay off the debt."
Long Feng laughed softly: "It seems that we have forgotten the most powerful chess piece. He is the one who can dominate the minds of Emperor Tianyou. No matter how powerful the King of Tiangu is, I'm afraid he can only be separated from him, right?"
Yang Tian had already greeted him with a smile on his face. The elder of the Buddha kept screaming and flattering, and the tide of flattery came out.
At this moment, less than half an hour after Yang Tian left, Qiong Daotian's face holy document had already been released. It highly praised Yang Tian's great role in the expeditionary army, highly promoted Yang Tianzhong's noble sentiment of patriotism, highly praised Yang Tian's great spirit of leading by example, and highly summarized the good situation of the people living and working in peace and contentment under Yang Tian's governance. In short, Yang Tian is an indispensable figure in the expeditionary army now, and Yang Tian is so loyal to the emperor and the country, so loyal to him, and it is really not worth worrying about what is wrong with him. The document also conceals some ministers' jealousy because Yang Tian made too many merits, and they are all the villains who frame the country's loyal and kindness...
As for Wen Yuan's documents that were issued almost at the same time as him, they were much more sincere. The above examples listed Yang Tianyuan's contributions since the expedition, especially in the "Hongyan" City, leading more than 100,000 soldiers to carry the glorious deeds of millions of troops on the other side, without any silence or exaggeration...
As for Yang Tian and Long Feng, they have started to pack their luggage and are preparing to return to Shengjing.
Three days later, the two took Gnu, Feng Ling'er and more than a hundred men in black who had been trained by Longfeng to board a small warship and quickly sailed towards Liuhua Continent. On the same boat, there was also a prosecutor of Danei who came with three armies. More than a dozen governors quickly sent back the news that Yang Tian had set out according to the order. No one noticed the strange smiles on Yang Tian and Longfeng's faces...
After ten days of driving, the warship suddenly encountered huge storms. Rows of huge waves that were over a hundred feet high crossed across the entire sea and sky, forcing the warship to retreat continuously. Yang Tian stood at the bow of the ship and shouted loudly: "We must not retreat. Your Majesty has the order to rush back to Shengjing as soon as possible. No matter what, we must move forward."
Fortunately, it was the old eunuch who announced the imperial edict. He held Yang Tian's hand tightly with a pale face: "General Yang, let's go back to the air quickly. This is not something that human power can fight against... Your Majesty, I will explain it. Human life is important."
Yang Tian immediately supported him and said seriously: "It's the right thing my father-in-law taught me. I can't ignore the lives of the soldiers for my own reasons... All the crimes and responsibilities are the last to take responsibility, return to the flight, return to the flight..."
The hurricane blew the huge sails, and the warship returned to the port where it was set out in just three days. Yang Tian quickly got off the ship, ignored the old eunuch who had vomited so much, and rushed back to his territory and regained military power. At this time, the 300,000 troops assigned by the three armies in his territory happened to be in place. Yang Tian's troops instantly expanded to a huge amount of one million. In addition to the city defense force he secretly ordered to train, the military power he had mastered had exceeded one million.
Yang Tian said proudly: "Look, now there are at least 310,000 people under my command who are willing to rebel with me."
Long Feng shook his head: "It's a pity that the other 990,000 troops can destroy you in one day."
Yang Tian snorted coldly: "What's the hurry? I'll send them to death sooner or later... Damn... But when I think about it, my scalp is tingling. These three continents can be divided into at least eighteen territory of my size in the future, that is, there will be seventeen loyal lords of the Celestial Dynasty. After I have worked hard to kill them, I have to deal with the Celestial Dynasty. It's impossible no matter how I look at it."
Long Feng ignored him and said coldly: "There have happened in the country where I live in that world before. More than 100 people from a nation rely on advanced firearms to massacre more than 100,000 troops with machetes in a battle... Are there seventeen lords? If you can open more schools...hehe..."
Yang Tian didn't say anything for a long time, and waited for a long time before he said viciously: "Damn, then I can't blame me. Although I was determined to rebel, I haven't rebelled yet, so they actually started to calculate... I can't blame me in the future."
Long Feng laughed loudly: "Rebellion is rebellion, do you need a reason? You don't need to find these inexplicable excuses for yourself... Emperors, generals, and ministers, would you rather have a sect? Why are they occupying the high positions in the temples? Why can't you replace them? Success and kings, defeat and bandits. As long as you become the emperor, who dares to say nothing of your nonsense? Even if you rebel just to steal the most beloved concubine of Emperor Tianyou, those historians who claim to be meticulous in the future will naturally write about you: To save the people in dire straits, they just raised an army to overthrow the tyrant."
Yang Tian sneered repeatedly.
Long Feng finally concluded: "So, rebellion is rebellion, rebel is rebel... But when you become the master of this world, this starry sky, this universe, those who have been against you are rebels, who can say what you are? Excuses... are dispensable, and monarchs who need excuses to start a war are just waste..."
