In the county city, Xia Wuyou used the city guards to quickly take control of everything in the city. Almost all the officials were taken down and awaiting punishment.
Princess Chu Mingyue had been in the prefecture capital for a month and had basically investigated the background of the officials in the city. Other than some unimportant officials, the rest had already sided with Ye Kuang.
Xia Wuyou would never let these people off.
Naturally, the Vice Commander of the City Guards who had joined Ye Kuang was also taken down.
On the top floor of a restaurant in the city center, Bai Yuntian and Chu Feifan quietly watched the end of this incident.
"Brother Feifan, let's go to the Imperial Residence. East King needs us now!”Bai Yuntian raised his head and finished the wine in his cup, smiling at Chu Feifan.
Then, the two of them went downstairs and headed to the East King's Mansion.
In the main hall of the East Prince's Mansion, Xia Wuyou and Chu Mingyue sat high up in the main seat. In front of them were the City Guard Commander, Wang Gu, the other deputy commanders, and the three commanders of the guards.
"Commander Wang, the county city has been taken down. Ye Kuang will not let this go easily. From today onwards, the defense of the city will be raised to the highest level!”Xia Wuyou said to Wang Gu.
"Yes, Your Highness!" Wang Gu said respectfully. After which, he led the other four Vice Commanders and retreated.
Having been in East County for nearly ten years, Wang Gu was very clear about Ye Kuang's character and strength. The battle with Ye Kuang had just begun.
"Which one of you three is good at managing civil officials?”Xia Wuyou looked at the three guard commanders and asked.
The crimes of the officials in the city also needed to be sorted out. Only then would they be justified and could they use this to gather the hearts of the people.
Chu Liangyu and the other two looked at each other after hearing this. In the end, they did not say anything. Clearly, they would not. They could be considered generals.
Seeing this, Xia Wuyou felt rather helpless. In the end, he looked at the calm Chu Mingyue.
"Beloved Consort, it seems that this matter still needs you to handle!”Xia Wuyou said helplessly.
"Rest assured, Your Highness!" Chu Mingyue nodded lightly.
"Report!"
At this moment, the guard's voice came from outside.
"Come in!" Xia Wuyou asked suspiciously.
"Reporting to wangye, wangfei, there are two young men outside who want to work for the wangfu and claim that wangye needs talents like them!”The guard reported to Xia Wuyou and Chu Mingyue after entering.
"Those who dare to call themselves talents are either people who are confident in their abilities or self-righteous opportunists. This king is curious about these two people who dare to come and serve at this time!”Xia Wuyou couldn't help but smile after hearing this.
"If he is truly talented, your highness should thank my recruitment order!”Chu Mingyue was also curious. She glanced at Xia Wuyou and asked.
"Don't worry, this king will remember my beloved consort's contribution. There will be rewards in the future!”Xia Wuyou smiled evilly.
"Pass!"
Not long after, the guard brought two young men into the hall. Both of them emitted a confident expression, causing people to involuntarily cast their gazes on them.
"What a pair of young elites!" Xia Wuyou and Chu Mingyue looked at the two of them, their expressions slightly solemn. They could feel that the other party was extraordinary.
"One of them exudes a scholarly aura, while the other exudes a masculine aura. It's like a martial artist and a scholar. If they are sincere in their loyalty, they can be nurtured and put in an important position!”Xia Wuyou looked at the two men, and a faint golden light flashed in his eyes.
"From my observations, they don't have any disloyalty. Although they aren't very loyal, they have a good impression of each other!”Xia Wuyou thought to himself.
These two young men were Bai Yuntian and Chu Feifan.
"This one is Bai Yuntian. Greetings, Your Highness and Princess Consort!”
"I am Chu Feifan. Greetings, Your Highness and Princess Consort!”
Bai Yuntian and Chu Feifan bowed to Xia Wuyou and Chu Mingyue, secretly observing them.
Both sides were observing each other.
"This Chu Feifan is very strong. He has already reached the Primordial Chaos Realm and is even stronger than me!”Chu Mingyue glanced at Chu Feifan. She could feel his strength from him. Of course, this was also Chu Feifan's intention.
Since they had pledged their allegiance to the Imperial Residence, they naturally had to display their strength.
"Bai Yuntian doesn't have any spiritual energy flowing in his body, but he's extraordinary. It's hard to believe that he's someone without strength!”Xia Wuyou looked at Bai Yuntian, his eyes flashing with bewilderment.
"However, he has a refined aura and his eyes are flowing with wisdom. He looks like a scholar. Perhaps the inheritance of the Confucian Canon will be of great use to him!”
"Please excuse me!" Xia Wuyou smiled at the two of them. He was very satisfied with the two people who had come to offer their services. At least, on the surface, they had given him a very good first impression.
"Thank you, Your Highness!" Bai Yuntian and Chu Feifan stood up straight, and an air of self-confidence gushed out from them, giving off a sense of deterrence. Chu Liangyu and the other two commanders suddenly felt a sense of inferiority in their hearts. They lowered their heads and did not dare to look straight at them. This feeling was something they had only felt from their Royal Highness and Princess Consort.
"From the aura you give off, your abilities should correspond to civil and military. Bai Yuntian, you are a literary talent, Chu Feifan, you are a military general!”Xia Wuyou smiled at the two of them. The feeling these two gave him was getting more and more satisfied.
"Your Highness has discerning eyes. This one is proficient in civil administration, and Feifan is an unparalleled marshal!”Bai Yuntian smiled. At the same time, he had a good impression of Xia Wuyou.
He could feel a hidden royal aura from the other party. Although the royal aura was not strong yet, it had the power to soar into the sky. This was something that only the Great Prosperity Lord had.
"Unparalleled talent, Bai Yuntian, you actually gave such a high evaluation of your companion. As the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. If you travel with him, your civil administration talent must be on the same level as him!”Xia Wuyou said.
"However, this king is very curious. With your talents, you will be able to be put in an important position no matter where you go. Why did you choose this king? You have to know that this king is still suppressed by Ye Kuang, the Eastern Garrison Marshal!”
"If I say it's because choosing wangye is the most challenging, would wangye believe me?”Bai Yuntian said playfully.
"If you have to say that you chose because it was challenging, then why didn't you choose an ordinary person? Wouldn't that be more challenging?”Xia Wuyou narrowed his eyes and smiled.
"This!" Bai Yuntian's face stiffened when he heard that. He was stunned for a moment.
Hearing the conversation between Xia Wuyou and Bai Yuntian, Chu Mingyue couldn't help but feel a little amused. Her eyes curved into crescents.
"Stop pretending!" Chu Feifan squinted at Bai Yuntian and laughed in his heart.
