Your Human Emperor Banner is already emitting evil spirits, and you're still pretending to be a

"Don't tell anyone about this for now. Even if you're not injured, pretend to be seriously injured so that you can report it to His Majesty."

Worried that Honglian might let the cat out of the bag outside, Xu Feng specifically reminded her, and Honglian nodded to indicate that she knew her limits.

Huangfu Kai and his group did not return to Gusu City until the next day. Their return meant one thing: Jianfengshan had moved the weapons workshop inside the mine.

If not for this, Huangfu Kai would never dare to leave.

On the way back, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Huangfu Kai's political acumen was far inferior to Huang Wenzhong's. He couldn't figure it out himself, so he could only ask for advice.

"What did you say? You injured Xu Feng?"

"Didn't I just ask you to hold him back? Why did you seriously injure him? This is bad. He's a captain of the Jinyiwei. If they take this opportunity to attack us, it will be bad for both you and me."

Huang Wenzhong was speechless, but this time he was not as panicked as before.

The weapons workshop inside the mine has been successfully moved. The person who injured people was Huangfu Kai, and it has nothing to do with him. At most, he can push Huangfu Kai out as a shield.

In this way, he can stay out of it. Huangfu Kai has no choice but to do this. Sometimes the choice is not in his hands. Just look at Song Heng and he will know.

"Then how do we solve this? County Magistrate, please save me."

Huangfu Kai didn't think so much about it. After Huang Wenzhong's suggestion, he finally figured out something. It turned out that Xu Feng's injury was not due to his strength.

Instead, someone set a trap for him and he foolishly fell into it.

How could Huang Wenzhong be involved? He didn't intend to give Huangfu Kai any advice, but he still had to say a few perfunctory words, otherwise Huangfu Kai would be desperate and give him away, which would be a waste of time.

"You don't have to worry. This matter still needs to be resolved by Jianfengshan. If you help them, they will definitely not stand idly by. Just wait for the news."

Huang Wenzhong didn't know whether Jianfengshan would come forward, but he had no intention of intervening anyway.

Huangfu Kai returned to the Liushenmen Yamen with a heavy heart.

At the same time as the two met, a memorial from Honglian was sent to the capital at full speed.

The speed of Dashun in transmitting news was still very fast. There were post stations in every city, and it took less than ten days for a memorial to be sent from Gusu City to the capital.

Emperor Shun was quite far-sighted. Although the Jinyiwei's intelligence system was still imperfect, the channels for transmitting information had been established.

After reading Honglian's memorial, Emperor Shun called Zhan Tongtian.

The memorial naturally contained more than just complaints, but also included all the gains made by the Jinyiwei during this period, as well as subsequent plans and arrangements.

"Master Zhan, your daughter, Zhan Honglian, is truly as capable as any man. She's only been at the border for a short time, but she's already made great strides and reaped a rich harvest. Look, this is the second report she's submitted."

"My daughter is naughty, but I am grateful for your trust."

How could Zhan Tongtian dare to take all the credit for himself? Besides, he knew that his daughter didn't have the brains to do so. He had also read the last report submitted, in which the name that appeared most frequently was Xu Feng.

Such great achievements are inseparable from Xu Feng, and this time is probably the same.

As expected, just like the previous report, Xu Feng's name appeared more than ten times from beginning to end.

This made the old man curious about Xu Feng. There were many talented young men in the capital, but few of them could catch Honglian's eye.

Although my daughter has been naughty since she was young, she is proud and arrogant. There are few people she looks up to, let alone a peer.

"Your Majesty, the situation across the border is worse than we imagined."

"Jianfeng Mountain is powerful and has recruited many people. Fortunately, Your Majesty had the foresight to notice the abnormality. Otherwise, if they really did cause a major incident on the border, it would be too late."

When this matter was mentioned, the emperor's face was full of anger.

He threw the memorial in his hand casually on the table, stood up with his hands behind his back.

"Jianfengshan is just a dog under someone else's command. The real troublemaker is someone else. The several defeats in the border battles are probably the other party's fault."

"Honglian has written a petition requesting the dispatch of Kailong Realm warriors to assist. In your opinion, could you arrange for someone to go?"

Zhan Tongtian did not answer immediately, but lowered his head and thought for a moment.

He knew that the emperor was not asking whether sending a dragon-level fighter would irritate Jianfengshan. The real meaning of this question was directed at someone else, and that was naturally the person behind Jianfengshan.

"Your Majesty, in my opinion, there is no need to worry about this matter. Winter is approaching, and the barbarians will calm down. Even if they want to make a move, they will be unable to do anything."

"Now is the perfect time to send someone to clean up the local gangs. My daughter isn't that smart. This series of events must be the work of Xu Feng."

These words immediately attracted Emperor Shun's attention again.

In fact, he had also received another memorial, and Emperor Shun knew very well who had made the credit.

But he pretended to be very surprised.

"Then do you think Xu Feng can handle this important task?"

"This person's actions may seem haphazard, but they are actually measured. His two consecutive actions have brought heavy losses to Jianfeng Mountain, and he has also taken advantage of this to clean up the underworld forces in Gusu City."

"He knows how to utilize all the resources at his disposal, and he will undoubtedly become a sharp weapon in Your Majesty's hands in the future."

Zhan Tongtian was generous in praising Xu Feng, mainly because Xu Feng's battle record was really impressive. Since the establishment of the Jinyiwei, there were very few winners in the several appearances.

Only Honglian had continuous good news. Emperor Shun probably had something in mind already and just said it through Zhan Tongtian.

"Before this, Honglian had already requested the dispatch of Kailong Realm warriors to help completely eliminate the local gangs. This must have been Xu Feng's idea. This memorial is an active attempt to hand a knife to His Majesty and clean up the local bureaucracy."

"If we investigate both sides, we can completely control Gusu City. This person is truly born to be a Jinyiwei."

Emperor Shun clapped his hands and laughed. He thought so too. Xu Feng's move was really like handing him a pillow just when he was sleepy. He had long wanted to find an opportunity to clean up the local bureaucracy on the border.

However, there was no reason, and some people in the court obstructed him, so even Emperor Shun could not take action by force.

This was one of the reasons why he established the Jinyiwei. So far, only Honglian had met his expectations. If the situation had not reached a critical stage, Emperor Shun would have to meet Xu Feng.

"So, according to you, we can start now?"

Although Emperor Shun was young, he was not lacking in ambition.

Zhan Tongtian nodded in agreement, and the two had already made up their minds.
