"Liu Ye was able to repel the Xianbei and had the strength to destroy the Xiongnu?”
"Once he finds out that I colluded with He Jin and the Xianbei to kill him, he will send an army to attack. With the strength of our Bing Province, we will definitely not be able to stop Liu Ye's attack.”
Thinking of this, Ding Yuan's entire body trembled.
After a while, Ding Yuan, who had regained his senses, shot a vicious gaze. He quickly picked up his pen and wrote a letter to the imperial court asking for help.
Worried that the Emperor would not send troops to help and put righteousness above kinship, Ding Yuan even wrote another secret letter, preparing to let He Jin intervene in this matter.
Speaking of which, this matter was originally caused by He Jin.
If not for He Jin's request, he would not have easily offended this prince.
If he was unlucky, it would mean that the entire Bing Province would fall into Liu Ye's hands. He Jin naturally would not be able to see this happen.
Therefore, whether it was for Ding Yuan or for He Jin himself, He Jin could not stand by and watch.
……
On the other hand, in front of Yanmen Pass.
After a few days of traveling, Liu Ye brought Xue Rengui and five thousand black-armored soldiers, escorting countless cattle and sheep, as well as hundreds of carts of gold and jade, and returned with a full load.
Behind them were tens of thousands of people who were willing to follow Liu Ye to Yanmen.
At this moment, the people of Yanmen almost went crazy when they saw so many cows and sheep.
This was especially so after they learned that Liu Ye had massacred the Southern Xiongnu. All of them crowded out, wanting to witness this special moment.
"This is great. His Highness Zhao is truly powerful. Not long after he arrived, not only did he repel the Xianbei's attack, he even destroyed the Southern Xiongnu.”
"Even General Huo Qubing, the former Champion Marquis, was only so-so.”
"King Zhao is indeed the descendant of the Great Han Imperial Family. With King Zhao guarding Yanmen Pass, the Great Han people will have no worries.”
"That's right, with His Highness King Zhao here, Yanmen Pass is impregnable. We don't have to worry about the foreign invaders anymore.”
……
Liu Ye sat on his horse and heard the discussions of the commoners clearly.
Now that he had repelled the Xianbei and destroyed the Xiongnu, he had obtained a large amount of money and other basic resources. He had also gained the hearts of the people and had completely rooted himself in Yanmen.
Not long after he returned to the residence of Prince Zhao, Zhangsun Wuji hurriedly came looking for him.
Liu Ye originally thought that Zhangsun Wuji was here to report the situation in Yanmen County.
Who knew that Zhangsun Wuji would mysteriously move in front of Liu Ye and whisper,""Your Highness, I've found a great talent in Yanmen County these days and I want to introduce him to you.”
"Oh, who are you talking about, Wuji?”
"This person's surname is Di, his name is Renjie, and his son is Huaiying. He's from Jin Yang, Bing Province. I heard that Your Highness has the demeanor of a sage and also has the heart to protect the people.”
"It's a pity that a few days ago, when your highness led the army to attack the Xiongnu, you weren't at the mansion.”
" However, I've already discussed this with Old Mister Di. This person has a talent that can rule the world. Therefore, Wuji boldly advised you today and hoped that Your Highness could meet this great talent.”
Di Renjie?
Upon hearing Zhangsun Wuji mention this name, Liu Ye recalled that he had obtained 5,000 white-robed soldiers some time ago and had forgotten about Di Renjie.
"Since you're a great talent, bring Old Mr. Di here.”
"Forget it, this king will personally go out and welcome them.”
Liu Ye had just finished speaking when he immediately changed his decision.
Liu Ye quickly brought Zhangsun Wuji to the entrance of the Prince Zhao Residence.
Looking from afar, he saw an old man in his fifties or sixties. He had a head of white hair, looked fat, and was somewhat amiable.
His appearance was exactly the same as Fatty Di from Detective Di Renjie.
Needless to say, Liu Ye knew that this was his Fatty Di.
However, what Liu Ye didn't understand was that there was a person dressed like a follower following behind Di Renjie.
He wore a bamboo hat and looked delicate. His every move revealed a sense of experience. He looked to be in his twenties or thirties.
From time to time, this person would whisper to Di Renjie. Judging from their actions, the two of them did not seem to have an ordinary slave relationship. He did not know what their relationship was.
"Is this the system's buy one get one free?”
Ever since Zhangsun Wuji brought Zhangsun Wugou here as an example, Liu Ye had begun to get used to the system's blind manipulation.
Seeing Liu Ye suddenly walk out of the mansion, the guards guarding Liu Ye's mansion hurriedly shouted at Di Renjie and his followers,""His Highness King Zhao is here. Why aren't you kneeling down to welcome him?”
Di Renjie and the young man behind him knelt on the ground.
"I am Di Renjie from Bing Province. Greetings, Your Highness. I heard that Your Highness is defending against the foreign invaders at Yanmen. I am willing to do my part for Great Han. I hope that Your Highness will accept me as your servant.”Di Renjie cupped his hands at Liu Ye.
"Ding! Scanning completed. Di Renjie's Commander: 74, Martial Force: 33, Intelligence: 94, Political: 96!”
As expected of the prime minister of the Wu Tang Dynasty. Fatty Di's statistics were much better than Zhangsun Wuji's, except for his somewhat worrisome martial strength.
However, it was not surprising. Fatty Di was still young, and Zhangsun Wuji was still young. He still had a long way to go. Naturally, he could not be compared to Fatty Di.
