As expected, Xiao Yanheng's expression became increasingly ugly.

In fact, I can understand why Xiao Yanheng was angry.

Those burial objects were not only extremely valuable, but were also used by Zhang Long as military supplies to fight against them.

Anyone would feel extremely aggrieved when using their own wealth to fund their opponents to attack them.

"Royal brother, how about we go directly to Moshang Mountain to eliminate Zhang Long?" Xiao Lishi made a cautious suggestion.

Xiao Yanheng nodded in agreement.

"We must indeed fight a quick battle."

Realizing that the battle was about to begin, Long Fei was very excited.

Staring closely at Xiao Yanheng.

"Your Majesty, may I ask when the battle will begin? I feel brimming with strength. I cannot bear this humiliation until I have dealt with this traitor!"

Thinking of something, Long Fei continued to add: "Or it would be better to just..."

"What do you mean? The enemy is stationed on the top of the mountain. If we launch an attack, it will harm civilians instead." Xiao Lishi said helplessly.

While scratching his head, Long Fei looked at Xiao Yanheng for help.

Know that I am stupid.

A cold light flashed in Xiao Yanheng's eyes. "Burn the entire mountain range."

"Burning Mountain?"

Long Fei and Xiao Lishi exchanged surprised glances.

Long Fei retorted without hesitation: "That's not feasible. Doing so will harm innocent villagers."

"Issue a notice to warn villagers to evacuate, and strictly investigate anyone who pretends to be a refugee and attempts to escape." Xiao Yanheng continued.

Seeing that the emperor's decision was unquestionable, Long Fei immediately agreed.

"I'll arrange it now!" After saying that, he hurried away.

Xiao Yanheng turned his gaze to Xiao Lishi, "Why are you still standing there?"

Xiao Lishi seemed a little embarrassed. "Brother, I have been pampered since childhood and have never experienced such hardships. How about..."

"Let's not talk about this." Xiao Yanheng said firmly.

Seeing that the other party was still hesitant, Xiao Yanheng continued, "If you don't want to, if Miss Su gives you anything again in the future, I will arrange for someone else to receive it, and you won't be involved then."

"No, that's not the case." Xiao Lishi quickly waved his hands to deny it.

Then, with a respectful smile, he explained, "I have no objection. However, this little hardship is insignificant to my brother's long-term interests, and I am willing to bear it."

Fearing that he would change his mind, Xiao Lishi turned around and quickly left the scene.

Xiao Yanheng stayed where he was, put his hands behind his back, looked out the window and sighed softly.

Then he firmly declared: "No matter what the cost, Zhang Long must be brought to justice!"

The old eunuch beside him nodded happily in agreement: "Your Majesty will definitely achieve your goal."

Xiao Yanheng then added, "Send that young lady a set of top-quality head ornaments. Her attire doesn't suit us here."

"Are you still sending it?" The old lady looked surprised after listening.

After a pause, he added, "Rumors abound outside, speculating on Your Majesty's motives and slandering her as a demon seeking to confuse His Majesty. You have rarely visited the harem recently."

Xiao Yanheng sneered at the sarcastic remarks, "How could I not know the motives behind these people? They simply hope to elevate their status by giving birth to a dragonborn."

All the women in the deep palace were not his own, but were forced upon him by the previous court officials.

Those women only care about how to get pregnant as soon as possible in order to gain a high position, and no one treats them sincerely.

Feeling the monarch's dissatisfaction, the eunuch sighed helplessly.

If conditions permit, he also hopes to share some of Xiao Yanheng's worries.

the other side.

Long Fei left the palace and immediately went outside the city to announce the imperial decree.

"Following the Emperor's instructions, the mountains were set ablaze, and only the common people were spared."

This decision shocked everyone around.

Especially those military officers who had close relations with Long Fei were puzzled.

One of them asked, "Master Long, are you serious? Will the damage to the natural ecosystem be easily repaired?"

Long Fei responded easily: "After all, this is an order from the emperor himself. If we want the enemy to come down the mountain on their own initiative, there is no other choice but this method."

Upon hearing this, the generals, though still having their objections, finally gave in and said, "Since that's the case, let's follow your plan!"

Thus began a massive anti-bandit campaign that left its mark in history books.

Followed by.

Chang Hongming has already prepared a special plane for the return trip.

Except for Situ who was left in charge of selling calligraphy works, the rest of the members flew back to their country.

The professor was in a low mood during the journey and sighed frequently, showing that he was very disappointed about the betrayal of his former disciple Cai Cheng.

Su Yuan's soft voice broke the silence, "Professor..."

Seeing the teacher turn his head with a puzzled look on his face, he continued to comfort him, "Professor, please don't doubt your teaching ability because of this. The root of the problem lies in Cai Cheng's own character, not your teaching."

The professor frowned and asked, "Are you saying that Cai Cheng was indeed at fault?"

Noticing the change in the other party's tone, Su Yuan realized that the topic might have touched on taboos, so she hesitated.

Seeing her stop the conversation, the professor laughed unexpectedly.

She whispered to him, "Alright, stop imagining this. I won't blame you for Cai Cheng's mistakes. Just tell me what you think."

Since he has said so, I will just say it directly.

Su Yuan continued, "Cai Cheng is too ambitious, but his current knowledge and experience are insufficient. If he casually appraises something for someone else, it would be fine if the appraisal is correct, but if the appraisal is wrong, it will not only damage his own reputation, but also yours."

Professor Zheng became interested suddenly because he didn't expect that she actually knew all this.

"Do you think I'm a little too strong?"

Su Yuan smiled and said, "If you were truly powerful, you wouldn't have allowed Cai Cheng to use your name to do things. You're letting him train and gain experience, not trying to control him."

It’s a pity that Cai Cheng has such a good teacher but doesn’t know how to cherish him.

Tears welled up in Professor Zheng's eyes.

Then he sighed again.

"You're right, but it's a pity. Cai Cheng is the last disciple I'll accept. I won't be accepting any more in the future."

Su Yuan shook her head. "Professor Zheng, you misunderstood. I'm not saying this to ask you to accept me as your apprentice."

"Oh?" Professor Zheng's interest was piqued again. "So what do you want me to help you with?"

Seeing that Professor Zheng understood what she meant, Su Yuan stopped beating around the bush.

"I'd like to invite Professor Zheng to visit our auction house more often. We have a lot of good teas prepared here. Would you be interested in trying some?"

Professor Zheng closed his eyes and thought about it.

Seeing the other person's expression, Su Yuan consciously did not disturb him.

She actually doesn’t care whether Professor Zheng will agree directly in the end.

Finally, Professor Zheng sighed deeply.

"Su Yuan, you are the most spiritual girl I think. My intuition tells me that if I miss you, I will regret it. So I can go and sit with you."

Hearing this, Su Yuan's eyes were filled with light.
