"Men!"
After the guards left, Baiyifei muttered to himself for a moment.
"Lord Marquis." Bai Wenqiu immediately rushed over upon hearing the voice. Currently, Bai Wenqiu's entire body was exuding a powerful aura that far surpassed the past.
"Ji Wuye invited me to the General's Mansion to discuss the matter of the remnant people of the Bai Yue.”Baiyifei rubbed his chin and laughed coldly.
"Lord Marquis, are you saying that Ji Wuye did not have good intentions and wants to harm Lord Marquis?”Looking at Bai Yifei's expression, Bai Wenqiu's eyes flashed with a cold light as he spoke in a deep voice.
"I don't know yet." " I don't want to fall out with him yet," Baiyifei said, shaking his head." But if he tries to force me, then don't blame me."”
By the end of his sentence, Baiyifei's words had already contained a hint of blood.
" Lord Marquis, Ji Wuye has been standing in the royal court for many years. There are many experts in the residence, and he has a group of top-notch assassins such as Bai Niao under him. Moreover, he is extremely powerful himself..." Bai Wenqiu said in a deep voice, reminding him. He had met Ji Wuye before, so he could feel the aura emitted by Ji Wuye and knew that he was extremely powerful.
Shaking his head, Baiyifei sneered," Ji Wuye is nothing to me now. However, as the saying goes,'A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall'. Although the General's Mansion is not a dangerous place, it has many subordinates. I will not go there rashly in such a situation.”
" How about this..." Bai Yifei turned to Bai Wenqiu and instructed," Lead two thousand White Armored Soldiers and twenty Scarlet Guards and pay attention to my whereabouts. If you hear any sounds of fighting coming from the General's Residence, lead the army and charge in.”
"Yes." Bai Wenqiu nodded in relief. With the Marquis's current cultivation base, it would not be easy for Ji Wuye to kill Bai Yifei even if he wanted to. Bai Wenqiu was most afraid that Bai Yifei would come alone.
As for the Blood Strike Guard, they were the personal guards of the Blood Strike Marquis that he had secretly trained not long ago. There were fifty of them in total, and ten of them were in a team. These people were all in the Houtian realm, and five of the captains were in the middle stage of the Houtian realm. Their strength could not be underestimated.
…………
As night fell, darkness enveloped the land. The sky was covered with dark clouds, and there was an atmosphere of black clouds pressing down on the city.
In the night, Bai Yifei rode his White Dragon Colt and headed towards Xinzheng City.
Bai Wenqiu led twenty Scarlet Guards in the middle, followed by two thousand White Armor Guards. They were keeping an eye on Bai Yifei's whereabouts. With such a formation, even if Ji Wuye had prepared a Feast of Hongmen, they could ensure that Bai Yifei would retreat easily.
It was already late at night when Bai Yifei entered Xinzheng City. The entire city was silent, as if a dark beast had fallen into a deep slumber. It bared its sharp fangs, wanting to devour the world.
In the city, in the General's Mansion.
Outside the mansion.
"Greetings, Lord Marquis!" The two guards of the General's Residence saw Bai Yifei's figure and quickly cupped their hands in greeting.
"Lord Marquis, please!" One of them extended his hand to make a gesture of invitation, while the other quickly walked into the General's Mansion, obviously to report to Ji Wuye.
This made Baiyifei feel even more uneasy. In the past, when he came, no one had ever reported to him.
"There is indeed something fishy." Bai Yifei smiled coldly. Although he felt that something was not right, he walked forward unhurriedly. He wanted to see what Ji Wuye was up to.
A moment later, Bai Yifei arrived outside the main hall of the General's Mansion. Although his face was as calm as an ancient well, he was a little vigilant in his heart. There were many more auras around the hall than before.
Obviously, there were many people in the surrounding darkness.
Inside the hall, the moonlight stone emitted a cold light, illuminating the entire hall like a world of moonlight. The hazy moonlight shone brightly as Bai Yifei stepped in.
"Lord Marquis is here." At the front of the hall, the Jade Tiger saw Bai Yifei's figure and put down the wine glass in his hand. He squinted his eyes and smiled.
"General invited me, how could I not come?" Bai Yifei glanced at the Jade Tiger, then turned his eyes to Ji Wuye's figure on the right side of the Jade Tiger.
"Lord Marquis must be joking. You are the Lord Marquis 'esteemed person. If this general didn't invite you, would you dare to order Lord Marquis to come here? " Hahaha..." Ji Wuye's eyes lit up. Then, his rough face trembled and he laughed.
" I invited Lord Marquis here to discuss with him and contact Tian Ze to get rid of Han Fei as soon as possible. Otherwise, our positions will be shaken one day and our lives will be in danger.”Ji Wuye's expression turned serious as he spoke in a deep voice.
"What do you mean?" Baiyifei did not seem to understand the meaning behind her words. He walked to the window and asked,"
" Han Fei followed Xun Zi and advocated governing the country according to law. He wanted to imitate Shang Yang of the Qin State and reform the country to make Han stronger. In this way, our interests would inevitably be damaged and even our power would have to be transferred. Without the protection of power, we are like tigers without teeth, waiting to be slaughtered.”Ji Wuye's words were calm, but he had seen through the situation in Han Country and guessed Han Fei's thoughts. He seemed very wise.
It had to be said that to be able to call the wind and summon the rain in the Han Country's imperial court, to be able to cover the sky with one hand, and to be able to live until now, Ji Wuye still had his own extraordinary qualities.
"Alright, I will arrange this matter as soon as possible.”Baiyifei nodded, but he was secretly wondering what Ji Wuye was up to. Why did he not mention anything about the military pay?
If he really went to investigate, with his power as a Great General, he would still be able to find some clues. Moreover, he had the straw raincoat guest to provide him with information.
"That's good." Ji Wuye put down the wine glass in his hand and changed the topic." Of the 100,000 taels of military pay, your Snow Clothing Castle took 40,000 taels of gold. The remaining 60,000 taels of gold were taken away by Han Fei's men when I was moving. Later, I heard that someone else took the gold from him. I wonder if you have any clues?”
"I didn't receive any news.”Bai Yifei sneered in his heart. What news? He had heard Han Fei's words and was suspicious of him. Ji Wuye's acting skills were really good. It would be a waste of his talent if he didn't become a Best Actor.
"What a pity. Such a huge fortune is gone. My heart aches." The Jade Tiger sighed, and then revealed a melancholic expression as he drank by himself.
"Someone actually dared to snatch food from the tiger's mouth right under my eyes. He's a little too greedy.”Ji Wuye lowered his eyes and poured himself a glass of wine. His tone was cold.
Bai Yifei understood what Ji Wuye meant. Clearly, he had already confirmed that the 60,000 taels of gold had gone into the Snow Garment Castle. That was why he said that he was too greedy.
The other meaning behind his words was that he was too greedy. He had taken what did not belong to him and wanted him to return the sixty thousand taels of gold.
Although he understood the meaning behind Ji Wuye's words, he would not spit out the meat that was already in his mouth. Bai Yifei laughed coldly in his heart, but his tone was calm as he pretended to be ignorant." General, you can ask the guest in the straw raincoat if he has any clues about who dared to mess with you."”
" You..." Ji Wuye's eyes gleamed with a sharp and fierce light. His expression turned extremely cold as he stared at Bai Yifei's figure.
He had already persuaded him nicely, but this Bai Yifei actually pretended to be dumb and refused to spit out the sixty thousand taels of gold.
