Chapter Sixty-Sixth: The Move of the Chess Piece

life for the country!All under heaven sing the praises of Shí Mén Lǐ, but who knows about Féng Xiān ZhāngNote 1: All poems hereafter, attributed to "the people of the book," are works fabricated by t...Inside the military tent, Lei Dutong, who was hunched over his desk, suddenly raised his head. He looked at Wang Fututong being pushed in, followed closely by Zheng Ming and the Zheng team. His face instantly darkened with a menacing cloud.

"Zheng Ming!" he slammed his fist on the table and roared, "You dare to defy your superiors Do you know what crime you've committed"

Zheng Ming was a pseudonym used by Zheng Shangming in the military.

Zheng Shangming brushed aside Wang Futu, the deputy commander, and squeezed past the soldiers crowding into the military tent as if they were nothing.

With a stride forward, he placed his hands on the desk and looked down at the Lei clan commander. "You've acted for personal gain instead of the common good. Do you know what crime that is"

Lei Du Tong was furious and jumped to his feet, “Do you have the right to speak to me like that Zheng Ming!”

Zheng Shangming acted like lightning, grabbing his shoulder and pushing him back into place.

Because he used too much force in that instant, a brittle sound of bones echoed from Lei Dutong's shoulder.

Before those guards rushed over, Zheng Shangming snarled, "Let me introduce myself again. My name is Zheng Shangming!"

"Lei, aren't you the one who always loves to show off your family background"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"My father is the Duke of Beiyuan, so am I someone you can mess with You, a mere Lei, are acting like you're superior. Why don't you go ask Lei Fuqian, does he know you, or does he know me"

Wang, the deputy commander who had been shoved aside by Zheng Shangming, suddenly felt his legs go weak. Lei, the commander himself, also felt a chill in his heart.

He finally knew why that man had instructed him to deal with such a small fry.

Minor characters are not insignificant. From beginning to end, the only thing "small" is Lei, the person.

Although he also bore the surname Lei, he was merely a branch descendant. Lei Fuguan was the leading figure of the new generation of the Lei family. He had never even met him, let alone known him.

And he was very clear about the weight of this position, the post of Northern Palace Attendant.

The so-called Beiyaguan was actually the city guard office, but it was called "Beiyaguan" because it was located in the north of the city.

There are many government offices in the north of the city, but Beiya became known as the other name for the Metropolitan Inspection Department. This alone shows the great authority of the Metropolitan Inspection Department.

The position of Inspector General of Linzi wasn't very high in rank, but it held immense power, responsible for the entire security of Linzi. Zheng Shi, the Captain of the Northern Barracks, was also one of the powerful figures in Linzi, far surpassing this lowly commander.

A very straightforward comparison is this: throughout the entire Zhan Yu Army, above the generals and deputy generals, there were a total of eighty officers like him. However, Zheng Shi in Bei Ya was undoubtedly the top leader.

He only then realized the identity of the person he had usually looked down upon with scorn.

Despite this, Lei Dutong still forced a brave face and said: "No matter who you are or what your status is, this is the Zhan Yu Army, not some chaotic place. Here, you must abide by the rules!"

After all, his own troops were watching, he couldn't lose face too badly.

>

The Zan Yu Army, of course, was one of the Nine Armies, with strict military regulations.

>

However, the word "rules" will always be different from person to person.

Zheng Shuming said coldly, "As long as I want to, I can sit in your position tomorrow! Do you want to talk to me about rules, status, and hierarchy"

He wasn't exaggerating. When Xuan Sheng was in the Qiushang Army, he started as a deputy commander to avoid suspicion. If he had relied on his family connections to seek a position in the army, becoming a deputy general wouldn't have been difficult, and the rank of commander could have been achieved at any time.

Because his words were truthful, they carried particular weight.

Lei Dutong's voice finally became strained: "What do you want"

“I don't want to take you seriously. You are trash, and I have never looked at you.”

Zheng Shangming said, and glanced at Wang Fudou, the deputy commander who was shrinking his head beside him. This Lei surname and this Wang surname are not good things.

He continued to stare at Lei Dutong and said: "You now need to give me an explanation. Why did you have to arrange for me to track the man from Qingyang Town Or, who instructed you"

“Wen Lianmu.” Lei Dutong was very discerning.

This is an unexpected name.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!

Zheng Shuming pondered for a moment, then recalled who this person was. He then asked in a cold voice, "Where is he now"

“It should be at the Generalissimo’s Mansion,” said Lei Dutong.

There was a glimmer of mockery and satisfaction in his eyes.

Even the son of the Northern Court Prefect would not be able to withstand a direct confrontation with the disciple of the God of War.

...In Zheng Shuming's heart, there was only one thought—it really was so!

There is only one emotion, like a supernova exploding.

That was a moment of anger that could no longer be contained.

In the General's Mansion of National Security.

Wen Lianmu supported his chin with one hand and held a white chess piece in the other, tapping it on the board rhythmically.

Da da, da, da da.

The sound was chaotic and jarring, making one's heart race.

On the other side, Wang Yiwu sat cross-legged, completely unresponsive, still immersed in his own world of cultivation.

After a long time, Wen Lianmu yawned several times before Wang Yiwu slowly opened his eyes.

At that moment, the shift in momentum took Wen Lianmu by surprise. He was instantly alert and wide awake.

"Hey!" Wen Lianmu threw the piece into the box, making a crisp sound. "You promised to help Chongxuan with his stall, there's no reason for you to hide away and cultivate all day long, doing nothing but giving orders to me!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Wang Yiwu glanced at him indifferently and said coolly, "If I didn't come to you, would you have come forward to help Azun"

"Isn't that obvious" Wen Lianmu said irritably, "I don't even know him!"

>

"Look, this is what I do."

Wang Yiwu was still in that infuriating tone, but it felt so natural to him.

Wen Lianmu gritted his teeth angrily for a while, but ultimately still helplessly said: "Just be tough then, I can't beat you right now..."

“You’ve never beaten me before,” Wang Yiwu said calmly.

Wen Lianmu was suddenly speechless.

Wang Yiwu said again, "You still won't be able to beat me in the future."

This is what you asked for:

Let me know if you have anything else I can help translate!

He thought for a moment, then added: "There's no chance I'll ever get that opportunity again. I'm the strongest."

Wen Lianmu: ...

Wen Lianmu suspected that he would be driven crazy by this guy sooner or later.

What does it mean when a scholar meets a soldier

What does it mean to overcome ten with one

Think of me, Wen Lianmu, with extraordinary intelligence and outstanding military prowess, yet...

Wang Yiwu waved his hand in front of him: "Wake up, don't daydream, get down to business"

Wen Lianmu took a deep breath and told himself not to mind it.

Then he said, "The first step plan wasn't as easy to succeed as I thought, Jiang Wang is not a fool. Next, get ready, Zheng Shangming is going to come knocking, I don't want to get my hands dirty and make things ugly."

“Just a mere Zheng Shangming, able to kill with one hand. Why bother preparing” Wang Yiwu spoke with overwhelming confidence.

Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Wen Lianmu let out a snarl, finally unable to hold back any longer. He roared in fury: "Who told you to kill him Why did you kill him for no reason Killing Zheng Shangming is easy, but what about Zheng Shi Can you kill him too"

Wang Yiwu's unconcerned self-awareness: "It's hard to judge before we've actually fought."

You goddamn even want to fight the Northern Garrison's Prefect.

Wen Lianmu was utterly beside himself.

"After calming down with great effort, I said calmly, “Let me handle this, okay Just give him a lesson so he knows the difference, okay Don’t humiliate him, don’t cripple him, and definitely don’t kill him, okay”

Three consecutive "Are you okay" had completely exhausted his lifetime of patience.

Wang Yiwu, however, just looked at him with a nonchalant expression, as if he were being very absurd.

"Okay," she replied.Town is Jiacheng, and above Jiacheng is the county government. Huang Yixing's position couldn't be considered low.Jiang Wangdao: "This is exactly what I'm trying to find out."It seems the local author...
