After guarding the border for his father for three years, the daughter-in-law returns home and becom

"This system is really powerful. Even Wang Meng can get it. If this continues, then there will be even more powerful people coming!"

Chu Yang stroked his chin, a playful smile appeared on his face, "Is Qiongzhou really a Feng Shui treasure land?"

He was just thinking about it when suddenly the sound of hurried footsteps interrupted his thoughts.

"Report! Your Highness, General Zhao is back!"

Chu Yang was invigorated, and quickly stood up and said, "Pass it quickly!"

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Yun, dressed in military uniform, strode into the hall with a bloody package in his hand.

"Your Highness, I have fulfilled my mission and have killed the traitor Yan Xingrong!"

As he said this, Zhao Yun threw the package in his hand to the ground.

Bang~

A head with eyes open rolled out, it was Yan Xingrong!

Chu Yang laughed loudly, walked up to Zhao Yun and patted him on the shoulder, praising him: "Zilong is indeed brave!"

Zhao Yun clasped his fists expressionlessly and said, "It is my duty to help Your Highness."

"Good! Good!"

Chu Yang was in a good mood and asked again, "By the way, what's the situation in the city?"

Zhao Yun cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, I have taken control of the city defenses and pacified the people in the city."

"In addition, I found a number of gold, silver and jewels in Yan Xingrong's mansion. They have all been loaded onto a truck and shipped here. Your Highness, please have a look."

The voice just fell.

Then several carriages slowly drove into the mansion, piled high with gold, silver and treasures, shining brightly in the sun.

Chu Yang looked at the mountains of gold and silver in front of him, but he did not feel as excited as he had imagined. Instead, he felt a little uneasy.

Because he knew that all this gold and silver were the people’s hard-earned money!

He suppressed his anger and said to Zhao Yun: "Zilong, you have worked hard. Go down and have a rest first. These gold and silver..."

Before Chu Yang finished speaking, a crisp system prompt sound suddenly rang in his mind:

[Ding Dong, congratulations to the host for successfully taking over the military power of Qiongzhou City. You will be rewarded with a military commander summoning card.]

[I hope the host will keep up the good work and take more cities and get more summoning cards. ]

"Another general card?"

Chu Yang's heart moved. It seemed that this system was quite generous. It gave rewards right after taking over the city.

As he was thinking, he suddenly remembered a question and asked, "System, why are there only military commander cards? What about civil official cards? Do I have to govern a place to get them?"

[Ding Dong, after the host takes over the military power of a city, he can obtain a military general summoning card. After taking over the city's taxes and improving them, he can obtain a civil official summoning card. ]

"I see."

Chu Yang suddenly realized that it seemed that the system wanted him to attack the city first and then defend it.

"Your Highness, these gold and silver..."

Seeing that Chu Yang hadn't spoken for a long time, Zhao Yun couldn't help but ask.

Hearing this, Chu Yang came back to his senses, looked at the mountain of treasures in front of him, and thought about it in his mind.

"Leave it alone for now. I have my own arrangements."

"Well, I will take my leave now."

After Zhao Yun left, Chu Yang, with his hands behind his back, paced among the gold, silver and treasures in the yard, his brows furrowed.

"Your Highness, are you worried about these treasures?"

A slightly teasing voice came from behind.

Chu Yang turned around and saw an elegant man in a green shirt and a turban, looking at him with a smile.

"Are you Wang Meng?" Chu Yang asked tentatively.

"I am Wang Jinglue, a humble citizen. I am honored to meet His Highness."

Wang Meng bowed, still with a playful smile on his face, as if everything was under his control.

"Sir, please wake up quickly!"

Chu Yang hurried forward and personally helped Wang Meng up, thinking to himself: "This Wang Meng is indeed a rare talent. His bearing and demeanor are simply extraordinary!"

The two of them sat down as host and guest, and Chu Yang asked impatiently.

"Sir, I am worried about all the gold and silver treasures in front of me. I wonder if you have any advice?"

Wang Meng picked up the teacup, blew gently on the floating tea leaves, and spoke slowly.

"Your Highness, although these gold and silver treasures are good, they must be used properly."

"What do you mean, sir?"

Chu Yang raised his eyebrows slightly, he knew that Wang Meng’s next words were the key.

"Your Highness, Qiongzhou has just been settled and there is a lot of work to be done. These gold and silver treasures are a great opportunity to recruit soldiers and expand your power!"

Wang Meng put down the teacup, a gleam of light in his eyes.

Chu Yang suddenly understood what was going on when he heard this, and slapped his thigh.

But just as he was about to speak, he heard the hidden meaning in Wang Meng's words.

"Sir, you just said that there are many things to be done, but you also said that you want to recruit soldiers. Isn't that contradictory?"

Hearing this, Wang Meng suddenly became confused and laughed.

"Both are good. Both are good."

After hearing these confusing words, Chu Yang knew that Wang Meng was testing who he was!

Whether to recuperate or recruit troops is up to you, it depends on your choice!

"In that case, how about distributing this gold and silver to the people?"

Hearing this, Wang Meng suddenly stood up and bowed.

"Your Highness is wise!"

"Sir, you are too kind. This is all thanks to you!"

Chu Yang laughed loudly, and admired Wang Meng's talent even more.

"Your Highness, now that the people's livelihood in Qiongzhou City has been settled, I wonder what your Highness's next plan is?"

"Sir, I want to unify the one city and four counties of Qiongzhou. Do you have any good ideas?" Chu Yang said straight to the point.

Wang Meng smiled slightly and said confidently: "The four counties in Qiongzhou each occupy one side. It is not easy to unify Qiongzhou."

"Please sir, teach me!"

Chu Yang stood up and bowed deeply to Wang Meng.

Wang Meng quickly helped Chu Yang up and said, "Your Highness, there is no need to do this. Since I have already surrendered to Your Highness, I will naturally share Your Highness' worries."

"Sir, please speak!"

Chu Yang looked at Wang Meng expectantly.

"Since Your Highness has chosen to recuperate, I think people's livelihood should be the most important thing. It would be the best strategy if the affairs of the four counties can be resolved without bloodshed."

Wang Meng stroked his beard, his eyes gleaming with wisdom.

"Oh? What do you mean sir?"

Chu Yang asked in a puzzled manner, but in fact he was already very happy.

Wang Meng is truly a genius of all time. Before he officially took office, he had already set the general direction for himself.

"Your Highness, the magistrates of these four counties are all extremely greedy. The people have already suffered terribly. Your Highness can just find an assassin to kill them, and then you can implement civil administration."

When Wang Meng said this, he deliberately lowered his voice and made a clicking gesture with his hands.

Chu Yang heard this and thought to himself, “This old guy is really cruel, but I like him!”

"This is a brilliant plan, but what if someone in these four counties is popular among the people? If I send someone to assassinate him, wouldn't that backfire?"

Chu Yang deliberately prolonged his voice, with a look of embarrassment on his face.

When Wang Meng heard this, he immediately understood what Chu Yang meant. It was obvious that he wanted him to give him some advice.

"Don't worry, Your Highness. Since you are determined to do this, I have a plan that can make the magistrates of these four counties surrender obediently!"
