To Hold One’s Joy

  Chapter 479 New Lord

  Uncle Xing reached out to grab the token.

  Xian Xiansu, who was standing beside Suzaku Ling, covered the token with his hand, Luo Sheng's tone became cold: "Is Uncle Xing planning to combine Suzaku Ling into one?"

  It is a big taboo to combine two Suzaku Tokens into one. From the day the Suzaku Guards were established, the commander of the Suzaku Guards can only hold half of the Suzaku Tokens, which is the rule of death.

Uncle Xing also thought of this, and withdrew his hand and stared at Luo Sheng with deep eyes: "Miss Luo, didn't you say that you have lost contact with the person who holds the Vermilion Bird Token, why is this half of the Vermilion Bird Token in your hands? "

Holding the token in his hand, Luo Sheng stared into Uncle Xing's eyes: "That time I heard Uncle Xing talking to Mr. Zhu, and Uncle Xing said that whoever holds the half of the Vermillion Bird Token is the owner of the Vermilion Bird Guard. Did you hear me right?"

   Uncle Xing's mouth tightened, and he nodded slightly: "Not bad."

   It’s not that I’m not curious about Yang Zhun’s whereabouts, it’s not that I don’t feel aggrieved and recognize a little girl as the master, but the rules are like this, and non-compliance is the greatest disrespect to the Zhennan Palace.

  Luo Sheng lowered his eyes, staring at the half of the Vermillion Bird Token.

  The Suzaku spread its wings alive, as if it could soar into the sky at any time.

  In the quiet room, the girl's plain voice sounded: "When the time is right, I will tell Uncle Xing how to obtain the Vermillion Bird Token. I can assure you that I did not harm the person who originally held the Vermillion Bird Token."

  Uncle Xing did not say a word.

  Luo Sheng didn't care, and asked calmly: "Now I want to know whether what happened last night is related to Suzakuwei?"

  Although the answer was obvious, she still wanted to hear it from Uncle Xing.

  Uncle Xing was silent for a while, then nodded and admitted: "I led someone to do it."

  Luo Sheng tightened his hand holding Suzaku Ling, feeling the coldness of the token.

  Her tone was also a little cold: "Uncle Xing did this, let alone whether those princes are innocent or not, did you never think that it is the common people who suffer from the chaos of the world?"

  Uncle Xing was stunned for a moment, looking at Luo Sheng with surprise in his eyes.

  He never expected to hear these words from the daughter of the commander of the Jinlin Guard.

   After a moment of silence, Uncle Xing said lightly: "The world is in chaos, I just pushed it."

  Dingdong Wang has rebelled, and the so-called peaceful days are gone. Emperor Yong'an took the sons of the kings as hostages, just to prolong the time for the kings to make up their minds to rebel.

  The kings who choose to wait and see will get involved sooner or later, unless King Kaiyang can put down the chaos in a very short time.

  Ke Kaiyang is not a **** after all.

  It would take a long time to lead the army from the capital to the east. The people were exhausted, unfamiliar with the terrain, and unaccustomed to the climate. In addition, most of the soldiers brought with them were gathered hastily and were not well-trained. How could they be as relaxed as they were in the Northland.

  Once the battle between King Kaiyang and King Dingdong fell into a stalemate, a son who was sent to the capital could not stop the ambitions of the kings to fight for hegemony after all.

   "Before seeing this half of the Vermilion Bird Token, I was just expressing my anger for the old master." Uncle Xing said calmly, without any regrets.

  He didn't expect the little girl in front of him to agree.

  Different positions, clear conscience.

  Luo Sheng was silent.

  She doesn't agree with Uncle Xing's actions, but she also understands that Uncle Xing is for the Zhennan Palace.

  Because of this, she wanted to keep Suzaku Guard in her hands so that the Suzaku Guard, which existed to protect the Zhennan Palace, would not become a disaster.

   Rubbing the Suzaku Order, Luo Sheng said seriously: "I have no position to pursue the previous matter, but I hope that the Suzaku Guard will only listen to me in the future."

  Uncle Xing nodded without hesitation: "This is natural."

  Zhu Wu couldn't help but say, "Uncle Xing—"

  Uncle Xing glared at Zhu Wu.

  Zhu Wu tightly pursed his lips, holding back the injustice.

   "How many people are there in Suzaku Guard now?" Luo Sheng asked.

  My father mentioned to her that there are 600 people in Suzaku Guard, and if there is any loss, they will be replenished and this establishment will be maintained.

   "Three hundred and sixty-eight people."

   "So few?" Luo Sheng showed a look of surprise.

  Of course the surprise was for Uncle Xing.

  Uncle Xing smiled: "Do you think Zhuquewei has thousands of troops?"

  Everyone in Zhuquewei is an excellent cavalryman and a master of surprise attacks. It is not easy to train one.

   Over the years, some old and frail Suzaku Guards have withdrawn one after another, and they can only choose reliable teenagers to supplement after passing training. But after all, they can't see the light, and their money is limited, so the speed of recruiting newcomers cannot be worth the loss.

   Up to now, there are 368 Suzaku guards, and they have done their best.

  Of course, there should have been three hundred and eighty-three...

  Thinking about Suzaku Guard who was lost last night, Uncle Xing's eyes were filled with sadness.

Thinking that the girl in front of him will be the master of Suzaku Guard in the future, Uncle Xing explained: "The full staff should be 600 people, but some people retired when they got old, and some had accidents. Training newcomers not only takes energy, but also It costs money—"

   "Money?" Luo Sheng answered, "I have plenty of money."

  Uncle Xing: "..." Suddenly discovered the greatest advantage of the new owner.

  Luo Sheng felt a little relaxed.

  Uncle Xing being able to say this to her proves that he is still the qualified leader of the Vermillion Bird Guard.

  The rule of accepting orders and disregarding people is dead, but people are alive. Suddenly someone who has nothing to do with Suzaku orders will point fingers. Even if every Suzaku guard commander has been strictly selected, he may not be willing to accept it.

   People's hearts are changeable, and it has been like this since ancient times.

   "How are those Suzaku guards who quit due to physical decline arranged?"

   "A small village has been formed, and it makes a living by farming and hunting."

  The money saved will support the Suzaku Guards who train all day...

  When Uncle Xing thought of this, he thought of the sadness of lack of money.

  Poor, rich and powerful, if he wasn't too poor, he wouldn't turn a blind eye to Goro's running to the capital to engage in Lao Shizi's killer organization.

   "Where is Zhuquewei hiding?" Luo Sheng asked again.

  Uncle Xing was silent for a moment, then said, "Heyang."

  Heyang is to the south of the capital, and to the north of Nanyang City where the Zhennan Palace is located. If you travel in a hurry, you can reach the capital in three days.

  Luo Sheng pondered for a while, and said with a smile: "I just want to ask Mr. Zhu to go to the south to do something. If you pass by Heyang, you can bring some money to Zhuquewei."

   Zhu Wu, who had been keeping a cold face, couldn't help but relax when he heard the word "silver money", and cupped his hands and said, "Just call me Zhu Wu."

   "Kuer—" Luo Sheng called out.

  Coer, who stayed in the outer room, walked in: "What's your order, Miss?"

   "Go to the restaurant and ask the shopkeeper to see how much cash you bring."

  Kuer's eyes swept over Uncle Xing and Zhu Wu's faces, and she backed out with a sound.

  The wine shop is very close, and Kerr arrives soon after leaving the house.

   "My boss asked how much cash is there?"

   "Yeah, shopkeeper, hurry up and count, the girl is still waiting." Kerr said, shaking her head secretly.

  Two big men who can't even stand in front of each other actually cost Hua girl so much money. Tsk tsk, men nowadays can't do it.

   After a while, the female shopkeeper was still counting.

  Keer couldn't help urging: "Are you ready?"

  The female shopkeeper counted the bank notes without raising her head: "Wait a minute."

  Thanks to Nannanzhu and Susong Seyan for the ten thousand coins rewarded, and thanks to the book friends who voted and rewarded.
