Dragon Elephant Valkyrie

Chapter 149
Wuhou Mansion, Dongpian Hall.

A table of wine and food has been set up on the table, and the three of them are divided into guests and hosts.

Chi Zhongyan kept looking at Qin Yu, and the more he looked at him, the more he felt like a person.

Qin Yu was also observing him, but with a bit of scrutiny in his eyes, trying to see something from his peaceful face.

Chi Ruolan smiled and persuaded the food, but did not persuade the wine too much.

After the previous misunderstanding, Qin Yu probably guessed the situation of Chi Ruolan.

She has a woman's bun on her head, indicating that she is married, and it should be Gui Ning who is at home now, that's why the maid calls her madam.

As for the situation of her husband's family, Qin Yu was not interested in inquiring about it.

Although Chi Zhongyan was named Akabane Wuhou, he didn't look tall.However, the bones are very large, and it has a sense of iron bones, but also has a pale face, like a scribe.

"Little brother, since you just came from Suzaku City yesterday, you should have heard about the capture of the small country in the south by the Demon Soul Kingdom. What do you think about this?" Chi Zhongyan asked, as if intending to test the school.

A trace of imperceptible ridicule flashed across Qin Yu's face, and he replied with a faint smile: "Marquis Wu should applaud this matter, and it should be clear."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere on the table froze immediately.

Chi Zhongyan stared at Qin Yu angrily, but he didn't figure out what Qin Yu meant, and didn't scold him immediately.

Chi Ruolan showed a surprised expression, and asked: "The Devil Soul Kingdom captured the Jiaozhi Kingdom, endangering the southern border of Suzaku City, and the country is facing a crisis. Why does Mr. Pang still feel that he should applaud?"

Chi Zhongyan was calm and wanted to hear Qin Yu's explanation, otherwise he would have reprimanded him a long time ago.

Qin Yu's visit this time was not to befriend Akabane Wuhou, so he didn't need to be hesitant to speak, and replied with a light smile: "From the beginning of the Sifeng calendar in 510, when the soldiers of the Demon Soul Kingdom came to the Jiaozhi Kingdom, Wuhou I petitioned the Holy City three times to regain control of the Akabane Army, but was rejected three times. Now it’s all right, the Devil Soul Kingdom has captured the Jiaozhi Kingdom, and the Holy City doesn’t want you to go back to take charge of the army. Shouldn’t this be applauded?”

This year is the fourth year of Sifengli 510 [-], that is to say, since the last year when the demon soul attacked the country, Chi Zhongyan has been petitioning the Holy City, requesting to return to the Red Feather Army to take charge of the army, but all of them were rejected.

Due to the subtle relationship between the Akabane Army and the Shenyan Army, Qin Yu paid special attention to the Akabane Army and Chi Zhongyan when he read "The General History of the Kyushu Continent".

Fifteen years ago, the situation in the southern region of Suzaku City was tense.

Qin Xuanji suddenly disappeared at this time, and the Shenyan Army was withdrawn.

As a result, Chi Zhongyan, the Chibane Wuhou who was at home for the third time, was activated again, and took charge of the Chibane Army for the third time to calm the situation in the southern border.

Five years later, that is, ten years ago, Shengcheng was worried about Chi Zhongyan's achievements, so he allowed him to go home to recuperate.

As for whether Chi Zhongyan is sick, only he knows.

Since last year, the Demon Soul Kingdom attacked Jiaozhi, and the current chief general of the Akabane Army was incompetent and failed to stop the Demon Soul Kingdom from attacking the Jiaozhi Kingdom.

During the year, Chi Zhongyan petitioned many times to return to the Red Feather Army to take charge of the army in order to deal with the sudden change in the southern border.

However, Shengcheng believed that it was impossible for Demon Soul Nation to conquer Jizhi so quickly, so he never agreed.

Until a few days ago, news came back from the south that the Demon Soul Nation had taken over the capital of the King of Worry.

If Demon Soul Nation captures Jizhi, it will endanger the southern border of Suzaku City.

The current chief general of the Akabane Army pleaded guilty and resigned, and Chi Zhongyan once again petitioned to return to command the army.

Now the situation in the southern border of Suzaku City is critical, and if not unexpected, Chi Zhongyan will definitely come out for the fourth time to take charge of the Red Feather Army.

This is also the reason why warriors from all directions gather in Gongbei City. These warriors all want to follow Akabane Wuhou and make a great contribution.

In other words, if things don't change drastically, Chi Zhongyan will have the fourth "big rise" in his life.

That's why Qin Yu said that Chi Zhongyan "didn't make a fuss".

"Does Mr. Pang think that someone in Chi is someone who fights for power and disregards the national crisis?" Chi Zhongyan asked immediately, and changed his title, obviously angry in his heart.

"Just tell the truth, if you offend Marquis Chibane, just treat me as a slip of the tongue." Qin Yu replied calmly.

Chi Zhongyan squinted his eyes and looked at Qin Yu, as if he wanted to see whether Qin Yu's words were probing or sarcastic.

After all, he was well-versed in the world, and he would not get angry just because of a young man's words. The question just now was just to test Qin Yu, and wanted to see Qin Yu's reaction.

If it was an ordinary person, he would have been intimidated by his shout for a long time.

But he only felt a hint of banter in Qin Yu's answer, but he didn't know where this hint of banter came from.

"Little brother, do you think the old man shouldn't be in charge of the Akabane Army?" Chi Zhongyan regained his calm expression and asked seemingly casually.

"Yes, the southern border is critical, and of course a capable person is needed to lead the army." Qin Yu answered very simply, without the slightest hesitation.

Although Qin Yu suspected that his father's disappearance and the withdrawal of the Shenyan Army might be caused by Chi Zhongyan's behind the scenes, but this is a private matter, and when it is found out later, it will naturally be settled.

However, before that, we must distinguish between righteousness and righteousness.

Regardless of Chi Zhongyan's character, there is one thing Qin Yu admits, that is, Chi Zhongyan is indeed capable.

With him in charge of the Red Feather Army, the southern border of Suzaku City is much safer.

So from a righteous point of view, Chi Zhongyan should return to the position of the chief general of the Akabane Army.

In fact, Qin Yu thought that Chi Zhongyan should have regained control of the Akabane Army a year ago, and that way the Demon Soul Kingdom might not be able to conquer Jiao Zhi.

In fact, aside from talking about personal emotions, Qin Yu admired Chi Zhongyan a lot.

At least all the deeds of Chi Zhongyan recorded in the "General History of Kyushu Continent" can be regarded as models of warriors.

"Little brother, what is the meaning of this pretentiousness and respect? Could it be that you want to test the old man?" Chi Zhongyan has been examining Qin Yu, and there is no lack of temptation in his words.

Qin Yu was not angry when he was said to be arrogant and respectful, but replied with a smile: "I only know what it means to be neither humble nor arrogant, but I don't know how to be arrogant and respectful."

“Little brother seems to be prejudiced against someone Chi.”

"I can't say I'm biased, it's just that Marquis Akabane is regarded as a model warrior by the world, and his conduct is like a saint. I'm just curious, is it really so perfect, and hasn't done the slightest wrong thing?" Qin Yu tentatively asked.

"No one is perfect, how could he not have done something wrong? I just want to be ashamed of my heart." Chi Zhongyan sighed.

"Really? Even Marquis Akabane has done wrong things, this junior is very curious." Qin Yu asked with a smile.

Seeing that the content of the conversation was getting more and more inaccurate, Chi Ruolan said aloud: "Mr. Pang, the situation in the southern border of Suzaku City is critical now, let's talk about state affairs. Mr. Pang is very skilled, why not serve in the army? You can exchange for a lifetime of glory. "

"The Red Feather Army has only started recruiting warriors now. After the reorganization of the army is completed, maybe a year or so has passed. At that time, I may have already become a shadow guard. It is undoubtedly a waste of time to join the army now." Qin Yu retorted.

Now that the Demon Soul Nation has just conquered the Angry Nation, it will take some time to digest the wealth and resources of the Nation. No one knows when a war will break out in the southern border of Suzaku City.

Therefore, for Qin Yu, it is better to seize the time to improve his strength and become a shadow guard as soon as possible when he joins the army to meet the war that will come at an unknown time.
