The border region, Wencheng.
That day, Prince Zhan Chu Xiuhan majestically came to the border, it was a scheme by the Prince Zhan.
Not long after the departure of the convoy, the Prince Zhan released the news that they had set out to battle on the border. The news was as follows: The Prince Zhan received the orders of the Emperor, brought along eight thousand elite troops, and also brought his Armoured Cavalry army to the northwest to stabilize the people's hearts and develop the northwest border.
Suddenly, the news of Prince Zhan becoming famous after his first battle at the age of fifteen spread through the border. Many of the older generation, who had experienced the war, began to talk about it on the streets. They talked about how ruthless and cruel the Prince Zhan was back then, how the enemy had suffered heavy casualties in that war, while the Armoured Cavalry of the Prince Zhan had reduced the number of casualties to zero.
The people of the northwestern border were nomads who enjoyed the comfort and ease of working hard. Now, everyone had a unified topic to discuss. In their free time, everyone gathered to discuss about these matters.
In the mouths of these border dwellers, the Prince Zhan had four arms, eight legs, and a pair of wings that could send them into heaven and earth. Normally, the Prince Zhan would look like a mortal, but at night, he would open his bloody mouth and devour everyone around him.
Not only that, the Prince Zhan was invulnerable to weapons and fire poison.
Gradually, the number of people causing trouble at the border decreased by a quarter, and the people who were trying to cause trouble all day on the street were trembling as they spoke. Many residents looked at the scene with disdain, and they quickly walked away, "Let's go, let's go. We'll listen to them talk about the revolting Prince Zhan here, if we have the time, we might as well go to the back of the mountain to dig up some sprouts and vegetable buns."
"Are there any sprouts in the back mountain?"
"Nope."
"Then you want me to go to the back of the mountain and dig up some sprouts to make buns?"
"Can the Prince Zhan be overthrown? Isn't he still calling for the people to overthrow the Prince Zhan? " As he spoke, he glanced at the people on stage who were encouraging everyone to rebel.
A lot of the residents had already left the area. Seeing this, the person who was speaking on the stage trembled again, but his will was still strong. After taking a few deep breaths, he continued to call for the Emperor, "Brothers and sisters, the Emperor of Tian Sheng is not interested in politics, he only likes to travel, and is even more indifferent to our Wencheng City. You know, I heard that Shangjing City is very bustling and lively, the streets are filled with various big and small sects selling goods, what do we have in Wencheng? "If what you say is pleasant to the ear, doesn't that mean that we are poor and backward, have a poor economy, and have few buildings on the ground?" The young man who was speaking on the stage was very clear on what he was thinking.
"I heard that the Prince Zhan looked like a human by day, and by night, he had changed his body and was about to come out to eat humans."
Yes, I heard that the Prince Zhan has four arms and eight legs. Sometimes he can even grow wings, making him invulnerable to weapons and fire and poison.
"Then what will happen if we offend the Prince Zhan?"
"I changed at night and came out to eat ~"
The two people in the audience were talking casually, their voices loud and clear, along with their words. Coincidentally, everyone around could hear them clearly, including the speaker on the stage.
"Let's go, let's go quickly. Let's go to the mountain to dig up sprout vegetables and make buns." In an instant, all the spectators had already left the stage. The two people who were talking casually a moment ago looked at each other, then turned to look at the frozen young man on the stage.
"Don't …" Don't look at me, I want to leave too, my legs … My legs have gone soft! " The young man had an innocent look on his face, as if the person who had passionately called for everyone to fight back was not him.
The two people who were speaking earlier exchanged a glance and muttered to themselves, "Your Highness, this move is really powerful."
Zi Ye had always felt that his master was someone who could not afford to suffer. The emperor had given him the order to go to the border and settle down, but the prince wasn't in a hurry. Zi Ye thought about how anxious the border area was and whether he should speed up the pace of the march. Prince Zhan however, lightly refused, "What's there to be anxious about?
Zi Ye thought that his master might have gone mad from Miss Nangong's thoughts, it was unrealistic.
On this day, news arrived from the border of the Wen City. Zi Ye lightly walked to the side of the Prince Zhan and reported extremely respectfully, "Your Royal Highness, a letter from the Wen City has arrived."
Prince Zhan nodded lightly, gesturing for him to come in and report.
Under the candlelight, the Wen City soldier solemnly reported the situation of the Wen City. Without any emotion, he recounted the current situation of the City in recent days, as well as the rumors that the Prince Zhan had headed to the border during the past few days.
When he talked about Prince Zhan's "four arms, eight legs, invulnerable to swords and spears, impervious to fire and poison", the soldier couldn't help but smile. He gritted his teeth and recovered his previous solemn expression, then continued to report.
"Well, what else?" Prince Zhan asked lightly.
The soldier hesitated for a moment, then said slowly, "It is still being said that the King is not a mortal, but a demon with wings. He transformed into a mortal's body during the day, and at night he will show his true form. "When I came here, I had already thought about it. After this rumor spread, about half of the armed forces that were trying to fight back all quietly disappeared." At the end, the soldier's stiff face flashed with a faint smile. From afar, he looked like he was twitching and looked extremely strange.
"Your idea?" Prince Zhan raised his eyes, and asked Zi Ye.
Your Royal Highness, didn't you say that the army was not moving yet, that the great war was not taking place, and that the rumors were spreading first? I have added some legendary colors to your personal account, making your title of 'War General' and 'Battlefield Asura' shine more brightly with the light of legends. Zi Ye looked at Prince Zhan and said with a little complacency.
When Prince Zhan saw Zi Ye's indifferent expression, he suddenly thought of something and his brows softened. Zi Ye was very touched. Prince Zhan definitely wanted to praise his good work and reward him a bit.
He only heard the Prince Zhan muttering to himself, "I wonder what thoughts Wan Er would have after hearing it. If these words were to spread to the Assistant Minister’s Residence, then the timid Lord Assistant Minister …"
Ziye; "..."
Zi Ye couldn't help but raise his mouth, "My prince, you are afraid that Miss Nangong will have the chance to return the favor if she doesn't have a good impression of you, why do you need to worry about Lord Assistant Minister scaring you? Don't tell me you love the house and don't... Or are you worried … Propose marriage? " He could not imagine that his master had only known Nangong Waner for a few months and had already started to plan for their marriage.
