"General, even if he enjoys the incense of Yi County, what does it matter?

He is a god, and he will not affect your control over Yi County. Although he gains fame, you gain profit. Why not do it?"

Hearing this, Su Baotong slowly sat down, narrowed his eyes slightly, and seemed to be thinking seriously.

After a moment, his gaze fell on Zhao Zhenjun, "What do you think?"

Zhao Zhenjun pondered for a moment before slowly nodding his head. "If we donate the incense offerings from Yi County to Willow God, relying on his reputation, we Yin Gods will be the ones who will be most affected. For you... it seems to be beneficial and harmless!"

Zhao Zhenjun has always been a straightforward person and rarely gives opinions, but his opinions are actually quite true.

Da da da!

Su Baotong's fingers tapped the table regularly, his face calm. His mind was torn between his conscience and his desires as he was making a difficult decision.

After a while.

He glanced at the three Yin Gods below.

"Master Han's concerns are not without reason. I cannot allow his family to become so powerful!"

Hearing the sound, Hua Guzi's heart sank below.

But the next moment.

"In my opinion, we can let the Willow God be the main offering, and my two True Lords, Han and Zhao, and the two Yin Gods, Hua Guzi and Yun Yangzi, can offer sacrifices in turn. This way, the incense will not be lost, and we can also borrow the influence of the Willow God!"

Su Baotong finished speaking seriously, then looked at the three people, "How is it?"

'It's perfect!'

Hua Gu Zi screamed wildly in her heart.

He had never expected that this casual trick not only moved Su Baotong, but also made him draw inferences from it and come up with such a method that would benefit himself.

But he showed a different look.

"No, no, no, Marshal, Han Zhenjun and Zhao Zhenjun are indeed qualified to share in the offerings and can also receive a share of Yi County's incense, but what are Yun Yangzi and I doing to deserve this?"

"Hey, Hua Gu Zi, you..." Yun Yangzi became anxious when he heard this.

But before he could open his mouth to refute, he was interrupted by Hua Gu Zi in a harsh voice.

"Yun Yangzi, I know you want to refuse, but there's no need. I'm saying the same thing!"

"..."

Seeing Yun Yangzi still looking indignant, Hua Guzi immediately gave him a look that was full of meaning, "Shut up, I'll take you to a high-level game!"

After seeing this deep and complex look, Yun Yangzi, as an old partner and good friend for decades, immediately reacted and nodded heavily.

"Marshal, I'm the same as Hua Gu Zi!"

"This..." Seeing the two of them being so humble, Su Baotong was deeply moved.

"Having you two is better than having a hundred thousand soldiers, but I am the commander in chief. You two will share the responsibility!"

"...Alas, the Marshal's kindness is so great that I have no way to repay him!" Hua Guzi said with a flattered look on her face.

"Well, after you go down, you must formulate a set of rules as soon as possible. It must be completed before I open the city and reopen the market!"

"As ordered!"

The three of them left the tent one after another.

Zhao Zhenjun, who was originally somewhat resentful of Hua Guzi and Yun Yangzi, also changed his impression of the two because of what he just said.

As a result, when passing by his tent, he cordially invited him, "Why don't you come in and chat?"

"Thank you, Master. It's not necessary. Please pass this message to Master Han!" Hua Gu Zi said politely.

"It should."

Not long after, Hua Gu Zi and the other two returned to their tent.

As soon as he entered, Yun Yangzi couldn't wait to complain, "You are such a good girl, you actually dared to give the Marshal a stupid idea. You really have the guts to flatter the superiors and bully the subordinates!"

"cut!"

Hua Guzi didn't take it seriously, "You know shit, since ancient times, who doesn't know that slander is problematic, but it can't be said to sound good, right?

Su Baotong has been consistently outshined by the Grand Marshals of the other two armies, and advancing to the position of King and pushing back has long been his dream. I brought it up at the right time, and it was like a perfect match, like a turtle and a mung bean, and it was exactly what he wanted!"

"high!"

Yun Yangzi gave a thumbs-up sincerely, "Hua Gu Zi, I may not respect you for anything else, but I really respect you for this!"

"Haha, it's okay!" Hua Guzi smiled modestly, and then became serious.

"Now, we have one more important thing."

"Oh? Is there anything else?"

"You're so stupid! We worked so hard to give Su Baotong advice, misled him, and even offended Han Zhenjun. What was all this for?"

Yun Yangzi was stunned. "Hiss! Yeah, what are we doing this for?"

Snapped!

Hua Guzi slapped Yun Yangzi on the head, and said in a tone of disappointment, "You, you, can't you think of something?

We are now undercover agents sent by the Willow God. What we do is, of course, for the supreme and great Lord Willow God."

"Is that right?"

Yun Zhongzi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "So that's how it is, I understand, Lao Hua!"

"What the hell are you thinking? So, what should we do next?"

"We must tell Willow God about this, otherwise, wouldn't our work be in vain?"

"Hey!!" Hua Guzi looked Yun Yangzi up and down as if she had seen something new, and then said, "You old man really is... quick to understand!"

"Let me add one more point. We must exaggerate and vividly describe our contributions to the Willow God!"

"Smart guy!"

"Do I need you to tell me?" Yun Yangzi was feeling very proud, but suddenly he felt that the voice was not Hua Gu's.

"Huh? Hua Guzi, did you speak just now?"

Yun Yangzi was still asking questions, but Hua Guzi had already slid down to her knees and landed behind the tent, waiting for Wan Zhuliu to arrive.

"No need to act!"

Wan Zhuliu's majestic voice sounded again.

"I am not in the camp at this moment, but I have seen everything you have done."

Upon hearing the news, Hua Gu Zi and Yun Zhong Zi immediately rushed to claim credit.

"Lord Willow God, it was I who, despite all the opposition, proposed building a shrine and a temple for you. This is a truly great contribution!"

"Lord Liu Shen, it's me... I'm not bad either. I agree with everything Hua Gu Zi said. Heaven and earth can bear witness to my loyalty to you!"

"..."

This was the first time Wan Zhuliu had seen Yun Yangzi's method of seeking credit.

However, he did see every move of these two people.

Now is indeed the time to build a temple. Yi County is too big. If everyone comes to Hongsong to burn incense, the journey will be a big obstacle, which will greatly affect the popularity of the incense.

But there is a problem with building a temple. The temple represents the status of gods and involves the fortune of the dynasty. Does Su Baotong have the qualifications?

However, Wan Zhuliu didn't care. He decided to build a temple first. Even if he couldn't obtain the status of a god and couldn't attract good fortune into his body, he could still expand his influence, which would be beneficial to the collection of incense.

Thinking of this, he spoke again.

"You two have done well. If I can successfully enjoy the incense offerings of Yi County, I will lower you to the ninth rank of God and free you from your rebellious status!"

"What? A deity!"

Hua Guzi and Yun Yangzi were both stunned. Although they were once gods with their own thrones, after the Great Xia Dynasty destroyed the king, their titles were stripped away by the new dynasty and they became rebellious gods.

Although he can still absorb incense and linger on, he has no human luck and will never be able to become a true god in his lifetime.
