    Chapter 356: No more than four

    Blood dripped down the Chaolu knife onto the wooden floor of the study room, and soon accumulated in a puddle.  The Chaolu knife itself has a cold air and does not touch the blood. There is a shallow mark on the blade where the blood flows. That is due to the flow of water vapor on the outside of the blade.

    The general named Wu had a big head hanging on the tip of his sword, and he died with his eyes open.

    Fang Jie's tone was colder than the cold air on Chaolu's knife, and he looked directly at Luo Yao without any hesitation.

    "That's the attitude!"

Being decisive.

    Luo Yao also looked at him coldly. Although his expression did not change much, Fang Jie could feel his anger.  The two people's eyes stared at each other like this for a long time. In the end, Luo Yao took the lead and looked away with a long sigh.  He glanced at the rebels outside through the window, and then waved his hand casually.

    Ye Jinnan immediately understood what he meant, stood at the door and shouted to the outside to take them all.

    In an instant, several warriors wearing silver armor appeared from the darkness. They didn't see how they took action, and they knocked the rebels to the ground in a matter of seconds.  The rebels were all very skilled, but they didn't even have a chance to fight back in front of these silver-armored warriors.

    After the silver-armored warriors captured the rebels, they broke their limbs and threw them on the ground before retreating.  Ye Jinnan waved, and a soldier came over immediately. He glanced at the few soldiers underground, pointed at one of them casually and said, "Let him lead the way and capture all the people who came to Yongzhou with him, not just  They must have left people inside and outside the city to support them, and no one is allowed to be lost. "

    "Here!"

    The soldier responded, ordered his men to set up a rebel and walked out.

    Luo Yao sat down, pointed to a chair not far away and explained, "Sit down."

    Fang Jie handed the Chaolu knife to Mu Xiaoyao, lifted his robe and sat down on the chair.

    Cui Zhongzhen¡¯s palms were sweating, and now he finally breathed a sigh of relief.  When Luo Yao and Fang Jie looked at each other before, he could not help but tremble slightly because of his nervousness.  He was afraid that Luo Yao would order killings in anger, and then neither Fang Jie nor himself would be able to escape.  It was at this moment that he suddenly realized that he was still not as good as Fang.

    He thought that after going through the purgatory in the northwest, he had matured.  But when he saw the look in Luo Yao's eyes, his heart began to tremble. That look was even more terrifying than a horizontal knife on his neck.  He had no doubt that if it was him who was looking at Luo Yao, he would have been defeated long ago.

    "May I have your name?"

    Luo Yao glanced at Fang Jie with a meaningful look in his eyes and asked Cui Zhongzhen.

    Cui Zhongzhen cupped his fists and said, "Cui Zhongzhen, a humble official, works under Prince Xujun."

    "Is Prince Xu still okay?"

    "Go back to the general, Prince Xu is well."

    "Um¡­¡­"

    Luo Yao nodded: "Tell me about the war situation in the northwest, and try to be as detailed as possible. Just say whatever you remember, and don't omit anything. I won't see anyone else or go to the camp today. I will only listen to you talk about the northwest. Originally, I planned to  I will listen to it from the rebels' mouths, and then I will ask you about the situation in the northwest. Master Xiaofang's resolute actions and killing of the rebel generals really impressed me."

    The words were so sarcastic that Fang Jie just sneered.

    Cui Zhongzhen glanced at Fang Jie, and then explained the current situation in the northwest again.  Luo Yao asked questions from time to time, and Cui Zhongzhen answered truthfully without lying.  Luo Yao admired his attitude very much, and his tone of voice became softer and softer.  Cui Zhongzhen has an honest temper and speaks impartially.  A victory is a victory, a defeat is a defeat.  This was exactly the attitude of soldiers that Luo Yao liked, so the atmosphere in the room gradually relaxed.

    By the time Cui Zhongzhen finished speaking, the sun was already in the middle.  Luo Yao ordered people to prepare meals, and then ordered Ye Jinnan to entertain Cui Zhongzhen and others, leaving only Fang Jie.

    "Master Xiaofang, I have something to ask you later."

    Shen Qingshan and Mu Xiaoyao looked at each other and stood still.  Fang Jie shook his head slightly at the two of them, and then they walked out slowly, but they refused to follow Ye Jinnan and stood outside the stilt building.

    "It's quite violent."

    Luo Yao smiled, picked up something on the table and threw it to Fang Jie.  Fang Jie reached out to catch it and saw that it was a memorial.  He opened it and took a few casual glances, and his expression changed slightly.  This is a document in which Luo Yao asked the emperor to allow him to lead troops to quell the rebellion. It seems that it has not been completed yet.

    "I am the great general of the Sui Dynasty"

    Luo Yao stood up, walked to the window and looked outside and said in a calm tone: "I told you when you first arrived in Yongzhou, as long as His Majesty gives the order, I will immediately put on my armor and take my left arm with me.The vanguard of 400,000 men rushed to the northwest.  I know you don't believe me, and I don't need to explain anything to you.  Those people in the court don't believe me, so I don't need to explain anything.  But if Your Majesty does not believe me, I must speak for myself.  "

    "I have known about the defeat in the northwest for a long time, and I have long wanted to submit a memorial requesting troops. But you should know why His Majesty has not summoned me to serve the country. Over the years, Your Majesty has deployed three guards and horses to the south of the Yangtze River. Instead of  It is to defend the place, but it is better to say that it is to prevent me. If I make the Lord suspicious like this, I should have taken the initiative to resign to comfort His Majesty But, in this place of Yongzhou, who else can do it except me.  Town uniform?"

    When he said these words, Luo Yao's domineering attitude was immediately revealed.

    "Looking at the entire imperial court, no one can subdue the southwest. Are you expecting the civil servants to convince those barbarians? I'm talking nonsense! Is it possible to send other generals just to kill people?"

    He snorted coldly and said, "If Your Majesty hadn't known this a long time ago, I wouldn't have stayed in Yongzhou for so many years."

    Fang Jie was stunned, he didn't expect Luo Yao to say such words.

    ¡­¡­

    ¡­¡­

    Luo Yao turned around and glanced at the pool of blood on the ground: "You started killing people today, but do you know why I didn't stop you?"

    "have no idea"

    Fang Jie shook his head.

    "Because your temper is very similar to mine when I was young. If I were twenty years younger and the rebels found my head, I would kill them immediately. Then I would send someone to take the head to the Imperial Capital and present it to Your Majesty.  Prove my loyalty. But now, I won¡¯t do it again.¡±

    "Do you know why?"

    he asks.

    Fang Jie was silent for a while and then replied: "Twenty years ago, the late emperor had deep faith in the general. The general wielded a sword to kill people and sent their heads to the imperial capital. The late emperor would be full of praise for the general. Twenty years later, your majesty will praise the general.  I have doubts in my heart. If the general sends the head directly, it will make people think that this is an act of deception. "

    Luo Yao nodded: "Not bad."

    He looked at Fang Jie and said: "The reason why I waited until now to submit this memorial is because I am afraid of these things. If I had just learned that the Northwest Army was defeated and immediately submitted a memorial to ask for a fight, I am afraid that Your Majesty would not be pleased with the loyalty of my left vanguard.  But you are angry about why I knew about the northwest so quickly? Do you suspect that I have something to do with the rebels, and do you suspect that I have other agendas in the name of sending troops? "

    Fang Jie knew that Luo Yao was right, and the emperor was really worried about Luo Yao.

    "Then why did the general decide to send troops now?"

    he asks.

    Luo Yao was silent for a moment and shook his head: "Because I suddenly understood something As a human minister, if you do something disloyal because you are worried that your majesty is afraid that I will be disloyal, that is disloyalty. I am worried that your majesty will doubt me.  Is it because he has evil intentions and doesn¡¯t dare to ask for troops? This is actually a matter of disloyalty.¡±

    This was a bit awkward to say, but Fang Jie understood what he meant.

    "Originally, I had not made up my mind, but after you came, I suddenly thought of a way to get the best of both worlds. The fact that you are able to patrol for His Majesty as an imperial envoy at such a young age shows that His Majesty has deep faith in you. So, I plan to  I am writing to ask your Majesty to make you a military supervisor. You will be in our left vanguard and supervise our army going north to kill the thieves!"

    "ah?"

    This sentence was completely beyond Fang Jie's expectation. He never thought that Luo Yao had such a plan.

    Luo Yao couldn't help but smile when he saw the change in Fang Jie's face: "Didn't you tell me that you plan to put on your armor and return to Fan Gu to avenge your dead comrades? I also told you to stay in the left midfield  There is also a chance to avenge them. Now I fulfill what I said to you, and you give me an answer, are you willing to stay in Yongzhou? "

    "reason"

    Fang Jie looked directly into Luo Yao's eyes: "Don't tell me you think I am a talent. There are 400,000 soldiers in the left wing, and there are many who are better than me. You have no shortage of generals and capable people, and I can't be counted at all.  What."

    "What about fate?"

    Luo Yao asked abruptly.

    "I felt destined when I saw you. I felt close to you when I saw you for the first time. I rarely feel this way. Is this a good reason?"

    Fang Jie was stunned again, then slowly shook his head: "No."

    ¡­¡­

    ¡­¡­

    The atmosphere in the room was a bit cold, and Fang Jie endured it several times before suppressing the thought in his mind.  He could hardly bear to ask directly, what is your relationship with me?  But he didn't ask in the end. Even he himself didn't know why.Ann, there is still fear.

    He didn¡¯t know what he was afraid of, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.

    "You should think about it again. I will still write the memorial that way. I believe that His Majesty will not reject my proposal, and he will feel relieved to have someone by my side."

    Fang Jie was noncommittal and didn¡¯t even know what to say.

    "You come with me."

    Luo Yao said something after being silent for a while, and then walked out.

    "where to?"

    Fang explained the question.

    "In the martial arts arena, I want to see your practice method."

    Fang Jie's heart tightened and he subconsciously followed Luo Yao out.

    When going out, Luo Yao glanced at Shen Qingshan and Mu Xiaoyao, and smiled for some reason: "A real man, his life is not in vain if he has such a beautiful woman by his side."

    Fang Jie blushed and said nothing.

    Luo Yao laughed loudly, seeming to enjoy watching Fang Jie's embarrassment.

    The two people walked back along the stone path and passed a bamboo forest and there was an open space.  This is a small martial arts arena, empty.  When Luo Yao reached this point, he no longer displayed any weapons to show his strength.

    "Punch"

    He stopped and the other party explained two words.

    I don¡¯t know what¡¯s wrong, Fang Jie just can¡¯t think of refusing.  He took a deep breath, then punched out.  For this punch, he used the cultivation method he understood, calling the energy of heaven and earth outside his body and then wielding it.  With a snap, a green bamboo two meters away was cracked by the punch.

    Seeing this punch, Luo Yao's eyes immediately lit up.

    "Did someone teach you to practice like this?"

    "No"

    Fang Jie shook his head: "I am a waste in cultivation, and my body is not suitable for cultivation."

    "fart"

    Luo Yao was slightly angry and suddenly punched out.  This punch seemed ordinary and without any momentum, but just after he punched, the bamboo forest behind Fang Jie suddenly shattered. There was no wind, and a large piece of the bamboo forest fell directly.  Fang Jie has seen the arrogant inner strength, such as the repulsive power of the red-robed great priest He Xing Taoist.  Every time he makes a move, it's like a strong wind sweeping over the ground.  But Luo Yao's punch didn't have any violent momentum, and Fang Jie didn't even feel murderous intent.

    "There is no Qihai in my body!"

    Luo Yao said word for word: "But I dare to say that there are no more than four people in the world who know how to use the vitality of heaven and earth better than me."

    These words are more domineering than his boxing skills.
