At night, in the temporary capital of the State of Cai, Prime Minister Huang Fu stood on the top of the city wall, looking at the endless military camps in the southeast. Seeing this military camp, Huang Fu's face was very calm, but his eyes reflected the lights in the distance.
There was the army led by Ye Weirong, the last commander of the Cai State. Huang Fu tried every trick he could, but Ye Weirong refused to hand over his military power.
Even when Ye Weirong stood in front of Huang Fu and expressed his willingness to protect the country with his life, Huang Fu felt indescribably humble. In front of Ye Weirong, he couldn't stand up straight! This made Huang Fu even more angry!
Beside him, Xiang Bowen whispered, "You can ask His Majesty to issue an imperial decree to deprive Ye Weirong of his military power!"
Ever since Huang Fu recommended Xiang Bowen to be the commander-in-chief last time, Xiang Bowen has been bribed by Huang Fu; or Xiang Bowen has seen how powerful Huang Fu is and has no choice but to rely on Huang Fu.
Xiang Bowen was also a military strategist, so his mind was quite active. At the moment, he also temporarily played the role of a military strategist.
Huang Fu turned his head and looked. "It's not easy to get His Majesty to issue an imperial decree. Although His Majesty is now... ahem... but His Majesty is not completely confused. He will not issue this imperial decree easily."
He sent a telepathic message to Xiang Bowen: "Master Huang, let me tell you a little story about the State of Zhao."
"Please go ahead."
He lowered his head to Xiang Bowen, and slowly told a "little story" through his spiritual consciousness. This happened so... so...
Huang Fu's eyes lit up after hearing this! But even with Huang Fu's skills, he was still a little frightened after hearing this "little story", and sweat even oozed out of the tip of his nose.
After Xiang Bowen finished speaking, Huang Fu finally couldn't help but said, "Xiang Bowen, I only know that you are from Zhao State. Can you tell me your specific origins?"
Xiang Bowen hesitated for a while, and showed some struggle. Finally, he sighed, "Sir, you have to know a person's heart to know him. Over the years, I, Xiang Bowen, have never done anything to harm the State of Cai. You should know Xiang Bowen's character. As for the past, it is unbearable to look back. I hope you can forgive me, Sir Huang."
Huang Fu's eyes flickered a few times, "Xiang Bowen, that shouldn't be your real name."
"A name is just a code name. Even if I change my name to Wang Laowu today, I am still me. The past... let it be completely over!"
Huang Fu's eyes twitched unconsciously, but a "sincere" smile still appeared on his face. "I was reckless. Well, let the past be the past. From now on, we will create a beautiful and brilliant Cai State together."
I smiled at Bowen, but thought in my heart: Is it as beautiful and brilliant as fireworks
Huang Fu went down from the city wall, and soon a "seemingly ordinary" civilian was captured. After being tortured, the civilian "confessed" that he was a military spy who came to monitor the imperial city.
Was this so-called spy forced to confess under torture? Really not! Huang Fu would not be so low-level in his work. In fact, there are too many low-level spies like this. But, just having this beginning is enough.
This ordinary spy pulled out the "squad leader" behind him, and the squad leader pulled out the "centurion". The centurion was already a formal officer.
