Chapter 58 Really Fragrant

Wei Ze looked at the neatly repaired camp in front of him and completely believed Liang Feiyang's words. The bandits had indeed gathered here again, and the only one in Youzhou who could accomplish this in a short period of time, apart from Anxi Military Town, was King You.

The bandits on the mountain quickly discovered Wei Ze, and they swarmed down and surrounded Wei Ze and several others.

Wei Ze sneered and was about to draw his knife to greet him, but the little bandit suddenly counted the number of people.

"Seven people and seven horses. One tael for each person and two taels for each horse, a total of twenty-one taels. Come down and pay and get the flag."

Listening to the little bandit's words, Wei Ze was stunned. This seemed to be a very novel way of robbery.

The soldiers on the side shouted: "I'm blind, this is General Wei Ze, please let Chen Da come down to greet him."

Wei Ze shouted to stop the soldiers and said to the little bandit below: "Just tell Wei Ze to come to visit. Chen Da will naturally know who I am."

The little bandit was from another mountain. He had never seen Wei Ze, and had never heard of Wei Ze's name, but he didn't look like he was being hypocritical, so he sent someone up the mountain to report, and he stayed to supervise Wei Ze.

After watching for a while, the little bandit realized that the horses ridden by the seven people of Wei Ze were very powerful and not like ordinary horses.

"What kind of horse are you?"

"Uzuma, have you heard of it?"

The little bandit shook his head: "Where did you buy it?"

Wei Ze's soldiers couldn't help but laugh. The little bandit felt that their laughter was mixed with ridicule and was about to get angry when Chen Da came down from the mountain with his men.

"General Wei, it's really you, why do you come all the way?"

Wei Ze asked with a cold face: "You are not in Youzhou, what are you doing here?"

Chen Da was also upset. You are an official of Anxi Military Town, and I am an official of King You. We are not in the same system. No one can control the other. Who are you gesticulating and arrogantly bossing around?

"How King You arranges it, it seems that you don't need General Wei's approval."

Wei Ze was choked by Chen Da, and was extremely angry. He originally thought that Li Feng was a good prince who cared about the people and was open-minded, but he didn't expect that he was also the same. He killed the bandits in order to become a bandit himself and rob passers-by.

Du Biao saw something was wrong in the atmosphere, so he stepped forward and said: "General Wei, this matter was arranged by the prince, and this arrangement must have his deep meaning.

All we have to do is obey, you won’t be able to trust the prince, right?"

Wei Ze got on his horse and turned its head: "I'll go ask the prince right now."

Chen Da sneered and said, "It's easy to leave, but I won't see you off."

Wei Ze and his men left quickly. Chen Da sneered from behind, but Du Biao had a sad look on his face.

"Why are you making such an expression? Does he dare to come back and beat us?"

"I'm not worried about Wei Ze, I'm worried about Anxi Military Town. This piece of meat we're chewing belongs to Liang Feiyang. Do you think he can let it go?"

Chen Da's expression also became tense: "You said Liang Feiyang might send troops to attack us?"

"It's not impossible. After all, our current identity to the outside world is not Youzhou soldiers, but bandits. Liang Feiyang's division is well-known, and the Youzhou guy can't stop him even if he wants to."

After listening to Du Biao's analysis, Chen Da looked sad: "Then what should we do? Surrender to Liang Feiyang again?"

"Liang Feiyang will not let us go so easily."

Chen Da was a little anxious. Although Sanshan had paid money to Liang Feiyang in the past, they had no friendship in private. They were simply afraid of Liang Feiyang's strength and were forced to pay him protection money.

And they themselves knew that to Liang Feiyang, the three mountain bandits were just three hounds that could catch prey for him.

It's not that easy for a hound to betray you and want to go back.

"Brother, King You is not easy to deal with either."

Thinking of Li Feng, Chen Da also felt annoyed. Neither of them were easy to mess with. They were the receiving bags.

"Let's take it one step at a time. King You said he would protect us, it just depends on what means he has."

Wei Ze rushed to Youzhou City. When he left last time, Youzhou City still had a lot of damage. When he came back this time, those damaged areas had been filled.

Moreover, there are many more fortifications outside the city, as well as trained defenders. Everything seems to be in order. Even Wei Ze nodded after seeing it. King You knows the soldiers well.

"Report to His Highness Prince You and tell him that Wei Ze, the commanding general of the Anxi Army, wants to see His Highness Prince You."

By coincidence, Zhang Shoulin happened to come to the city gate to inspect. When he saw Wei Ze coming, he went down to greet him with a smile.

"General Wei, you are well."

Wei Ze dismounted and clasped his fists: "General Zhang, where is His Highness Prince You now?"

"Probably at the palace, what do you want?"

“I can’t tell you until I meet His Highness Prince You.”

Zhang Shoulin didn't ask any more questions and took Wei Ze to Prince You's Mansion. Before the two of them entered the door, they saw two strange-looking people walking out of the palace. At first glance, they knew they were Jianghu people.

"Why does the prince have any contact with these people in the world?"

"I don't know either, you have to ask the prince."

While the two were talking, Li Feng's loud laughter suddenly came from the palace. The laughter was very obscene.

Zhang Shoulin was not surprised, so he greeted the guard and took Wei Ze into the palace.

"Your Majesty, Wei Ze would like to see you."

Wei Ze followed Zhang Shoulin in, and after stepping through the courtyard gate, Wei Ze saw Li Feng hugging a beautiful woman dressed in a bun and laughing lewdly.

It turned out that this was the true face of King You. Wei Ze was so regretful that he almost wanted to rip off his own eyes. He was really blind at first, thinking that he had the heart to serve the country and the people.

Li Feng won the bet with Nangong Yuxiu and was making terms with her. When he looked up and saw Zhang Shoulin and Wei Ze coming in, he let go of the shy Nangong Yuxiu.

"Wei Ze, why are you here? Something happened in Anxi Military Town?"

Wei Ze looked angry and even accused Li Feng: "Your Majesty, I was really blind. I thought you were killing the bandits for the sake of the people of Youzhou to live and work in peace and contentment. I didn't expect, I didn't expect..."

Both Li Feng and Zhang Shoulin were stunned. Zhang Shoulin reacted first and was furious: "Wei Ze, you are so bold, how dare you commit the following crime."

Wei Ze showed no fear and looked directly at Li Feng with bright eyes.

Li Feng had long expected that such a time would come, but he did not expect that Wei Ze would be so stunned that he would break into the palace and question him face to face.

Li Feng smiled slightly: "General Wei has worked hard all the way, so he probably didn't get enough water and rice. Come on, cook some food for General Wei."

Wei Ze raised his head and said loudly: "Even if Mr. Wei starves to death, he will not eat a grain of rice from the bandits."

Zhang Shoulin drew his knife angrily, Li Feng waved his hand and said, "You say I'm a bandit?"

"Of course."

Li Feng smiled and said: "too young, too simple."

Wei Ze didn't understand, so Li Feng explained: "I said you were too young and too naive. Do you think I asked Chen Da to station at Qingfeng Mountain to get them to return to their old ways and become bandits?"

"I've seen it with my own eyes, and it can still be fake."

"Of course this is one of the reasons, but there are more things that you haven't seen. Anger will burn your reason. Eat something first and calm down."

Wei Ze thought of Li Feng's previous behavior and combined with the changes in Youzhou City, he decided to trust Li Feng for once.

The palace chef quickly prepared several dishes and served them on the stone table in the small courtyard.

Wei Ze ran all the way without drinking any water. He was also very hungry, so he grabbed the pot cake and ate it.

Li Feng sat aside and asked with a smile: "How does it taste?"
