Chapter 2272: Turmoil



Yu Jin's eyes lit up. "Then find some tea."

"Right away." Shan Yu smiled and then turned to look at Yu Zheng Xi, who sighed deeply and went into the room.

Yu Zheng Xi was silently complaining in his mind. It was Shan Yu's business, but why is he the one who should be busy doing this and that?

It should have been Shan Yu who was busy.

Yet, there was a faint smile on Yu Zheng Xi's face. Seeing Shan Yu so happy like this, he was actually also happy. Because for him, Shan Yu was already like a troublesome younger brother.

Though, he would never admit it out loud.

"Here you go." Yu Zheng Xi handed the tea set to Shan Yu.

"Thank you."

Yu Zheng Xi retreated to the side, watching as Yu Jin performed the tea ceremony for Traveling Doctor Liu and smiled faintly. It seemed to be really good.

<North border of Fei Yang Kingdom and Fan Yi Kingdom, General Huang's side>

Drap! Drap! Drap!

"Where are the other generals?" General Huang asked as he managed to reach the post where Temporary General Wei stationed his soldiers before. There were still some soldiers left in this headquarter as Temporary General Wei was ready to retreat at any time.

The person in charge in this headquarter was Adjutant Pei.

Adjutant Pei was actually General Huang's adjutant, but he was arranged by Temporary General Wei to stay behind when General Huang went to block Wei Mu Bai's route back then.

"Replying to General, there's no other generals aside from you," Adjutant Pei replied solemnly.

No other general?

General Huang's heart skipped a beat and he turned to look at the city in the distance. By now, almost no flag belonging to Fan Yi Kingdom were left and i I was clear that Fei Yang Kingdom had already conquered the city.

He thought that with Temporary General Wei's nature, he would retreat at the fastest speed possible.

But he stayed there?

The city was raided.

Countless citizen died and the food was taken away. It was unknown how their current situation now was after this incident. And Fan Yi Kingdom couldn't really do anything to help.

Sending reinforcement to the north?

As much as Fan Yi Kingdom Emperor wanted to do it, he knew very well that they lacked a lot of manpower and it was simply impossible for him to do this.

So he could only throw his temper around in the Imperial Palace.

The ministers and servants were all trying their best to pacify Fan Yi Kingdom Emperor's mood, but there was not much they could do.

The emperor was unwilling to listen to them.

"Prime Minister Zhu, can you do something?" The ministers asked Prime Minister Zhu, the only person who had the highest power aside from the Emperor in this court.

Prime Minister Zhu's face was dark.

He had already established his power in the court because the other ministers were not so good and Prime Minister Yang was still staying at the border. Prime Minister Yang was so rigid and blunt that Fan Yi Kingdom Emperor didn't like that prime minister and allowed Prime Minister Yang to stay on the frontline for so many years.

Even until now, Prime Minister Yang hadn't returned.

And the loss of Fan Yi Kingdom also made Fan Yi Kingdom Emperor even more dissatisfied with Prime Minister Yang.

It was just that without Prime Minister Yang, Fan Yi Kingdom Emperor had no one to rely on

for the north border.

General Yang?

Without Prime Minister Yang, it was estimated that this short tempered general would start a rebellion instead. The relationship between Fan Yi Kingdom Emperor and General Yang was

really not good.

General Gao?

He would stay on the frontline all year long. For generations, they didn't really listen to the

Emperor but fulfill their duty well.

General Jin?

He's Prime Minister Yang's apprentice.
