I embezzled 100,000 taels at the beginning, and the empress begged me to be more greedy

"I am relieved that you have such awareness, but this military achievement will still be reported to His Majesty and rewarded accordingly."

Yan Kang said again, then glanced at Jiang Zuo.

"Thank you, Lord Governor."

Wang Yingjie was secretly delighted.

"Jiang Zuo is quite aware of the current situation." He said secretly, very satisfied with Jiang Zuo's performance.

"Governor, if there is nothing else, I will take my leave first."

Jiang Zuo bowed and said.

"One more thing."

Yan Kang turned around and said to Wang Yingjie, "General Wang, from now on, all the troops in Anding County will be returned to General Jiang."

"Sir, this..."

Wang Yingjie was stunned.

Hearing this, Jiang Zuo was delighted.

Although it is unknown why Yan Kang suddenly changed his mind, as long as the military power of Anding County is in hand, Jiangzuo will no longer need to take risks like today, and there is no need to act according to Wang Yingjie's wishes.

"You two should have a good handover later."

Yan Kang interrupted.

"But your Majesty means..."

Wang Yingjie wanted to refute.

But Yan Kang said sternly: "It's settled, General Wang, you can leave now."

If His Majesty had not wanted to conceal his whereabouts, Yan Kang almost wanted to say that this was His Majesty's intention.

Wang Yingjie was speechless for a moment. He was quite dissatisfied with the decision. He groaned in his heart and turned to leave the tent.

"Thank you for your trust, Governor. If there is nothing else, I will take my leave."

Jiangzuo Road.

"Okay, please step back."

Jiang Zuo turned around and left the tent, feeling relieved.

"Sir, why didn't you let me speak out just now?"

Yang Feng was quite puzzled.

"say what?"

Jiang Zuo's performance was mediocre.

"That credit, the victory over the Mobei barbarians, clearly belongs to Lord Jiang and our brothers in Anding County. How could it be taken away by that guy?"

Yang Feng was still indignant and couldn't let it go.

"Young man, don't be so impulsive. Calm down."

Jiang Zuo's reaction was extremely calm.

"Sir, this is real military achievement, and it was snatched away just like that. How can I stay calm?"

Yang Feng was young and full of energy, and he couldn't help but speak out.

"Sometimes you don't need to be so greedy. Stay calm."

Jiang Zuo persuaded.

"These are all earned by our brothers with all their efforts. That Wang didn't put in any effort, yet he shamelessly says that he doesn't seek fame or gain. Bah! If it weren't for you, Lord Jiang, I would have scolded him to his face."

Yang Feng said indignantly.

"We still have to go find him now, why don't you just scold him in person later."

Jiang Zuo laughed.

Yang Feng was speechless.

After all, Wang Yingjie was still the General of Cavalry, and Yang Feng was just a local deputy general. How could he dare to really fight with Wang Yingjie? At most, he would just talk nonsense.

"If he wants to be the first to come forward, let him do it. Now we in Anding County need to stabilize the situation. We should not rush in and attract attention. If they all know that we have the artifact, won't everyone come to grab it..."

Jiang Zuo's voice was very low.

Hearing this, Yang Feng immediately calmed down, thought for a moment, and understood what Jiang Zuo meant.

If you are too ostentatious, you will definitely attract attention and even be envied. Lord Jiang's meaning is, don't be greedy for credit, just focus on developing well...

"In fact, the reward from the court is not much money, and now the military power of Anding County has returned to my hands, so I am already satisfied."

Jiang Zuo added.

He had never reported his previous victories over the barbarians in Mobei to the imperial court, in order to prevent the court from knowing his achievements.

"I really admire you, sir..."

Yang Feng admired from the bottom of his heart.

A moment later, Jiang Zuo came to the barracks, made the handover with Wang Yingjie, and then recruited thousands of officers and soldiers from Anding County under his command and obtained a lot of weapons and armor, which were extremely important for the subsequent battles.

After a busy day, Jiang Zuo was finally able to take off his armor and return home.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Chen Qingyun wandering in the courtyard.

Jiang Zuo's appearance attracted her attention.

Chen Qingyun suddenly turned his head and stared at Jiang Zuo blankly.

Jiang Zuo is still alive!

Chen Qingyun breathed a sigh of relief, his heart finally at ease.

She walked anxiously to Jiang Zuo and asked with a hint of complaint, "Did you go out of the city to fight?"

"Siyue, have you heard about it too? It's okay, it's just a small matter."

Jiang Zuo said casually.

"You are really crazy. You dare to go out of the city to fight with two hundred people!"

Chen Qingyun's words were filled with extreme anger.

"Then am I not still alive now?"

Jiang Zuo looked comfortable as he stared at Chen Qingyun's pretty yet anxious face.

"If the Six Towns Army hadn't shown up in time, you would have probably died long ago."

There was a hint of anger in Chen Qingyun's eyes, and he was very dissatisfied with Jiang Zuo's recklessness.

What she was thinking was that if she, the empress, had not personally gone to the barracks to send reinforcements to Jiang Zuo, Jiang Zuo would probably have died...

"Six Towns Army?"

Jiang Zuo shook his head and smiled.

"What are you laughing at? Don't be so greedy and reckless next time!"

Chen Qingyun continued to teach.

"Siyue, it seems you are very nervous about me."

There was a hint of teasing in Jiang Zuo's eyes.

"Who's worried about you? I'm living in your house now, and I'm afraid that if you die, I'll be unlucky too!"

Jiang Zuo: “…”

Are you so heartless?

"Really?"

Jiang Zuo slowly approached Chen Qingyun.

"Go away."

Chen Qingyun was still angry and deliberately avoided Jiang Zuo's actions.

"Don't worry Siyue, I won't die that easily."

Jiang Zuo said calmly.

"This time, the Six Towns Army will help you, but next time, that may not be the case."

Chen Qingyun was quite dissatisfied with Jiang Zuo's frivolousness, and her eyes were full of the majesty of an empress.

"The Six Towns Army? They didn't reinforce us. This battle was fought by our brothers from Anding County themselves."

Jiang Zuo told the truth.

"You fought on your own? But there are only two hundred of you."

Chen Qingyun didn't believe it at all.

"There were only two hundred of us, but we won a great victory without losing a single soldier and captured hundreds of barbarians."

Jiang Zuo said with great pride.

"Is everything you said true?"

Chen Qingyun was stunned.

She had seen Jiang Zuo's ability to lead troops in battle before.

"of course it's true."

Jiang Zuo smiled and nodded.

"You're not just bragging to trick me, are you?"

Chen Qingyun had some doubts.

With two hundred against two thousand, it is impossible that no one was killed.

"You can go to the barracks and ask the brothers. It's absolutely true."

Jiang Zuo patted his chest and promised.

"You lied so much, how can I tell which one is true and which one is false?"

Chen Qingyun still didn't believe it. After all, she had heard Jiang Zuo's lies hundreds of times.

Jiang Zuo suddenly said with affection: "At least the fact that I like you is absolutely true, Siyue, actually I... Hey, don't go, Siyue!"

Chen Qingyun didn't even turn his head back at this moment, and went straight back to the room and locked the door.

She was filled with thoughts and murmured, "Jiang Zuo, how much ability do you have left..."
