I should marry the traitor

Chapter 32 Give Me Five Thousand Elites
Jizhou, Yuan Mansion.

The Yuan family is holding a banquet today, and all the prominent figures in Jizhou are invited. Even those who are loyal to the Yuan family from outside Jizhou have come from far away.

This is the influence of three officials in four generations. Even if it is not used on weekdays, it will sweep across all directions when used.

There are limited seats in the Yuan Mansion, and only a very small number of distinguished guests can enter the Yuan Mansion. Most of the guests sit at the buffet on the street outside the door.

"Tsk tsk tsk, the Yuan family really put on a grand display this time."

"Who says it's not? It almost covered the whole county town. The three dukes from four generations are indeed a wealthy family."

"Don't mention it. I'm a well-known figure in the village, but I can't even get in the door."

"Brother, why bother? Just being invited to the banquet is already a rare honor."

"Hahaha, that's right."

Although the head of the village is no different from an ant in front of the behemoth that has three generations of officials, he is still a local tyrant who abuses his power in the village.

"An Xinlin, the governor of Beishuo, congratulates the young master of the Yuan family and presents him with a pair of hundred-year-old golden ginseng and a pair of jade ruyi."

As the chanting of the ceremony spread, everyone, regardless of their fame or rank, fell silent for a moment.

"How come? Why is she here?"

"He probably didn't come. He probably just sent a messenger to deliver the gift."

"That's strange. The Yuan family only appointed a young master. He can't even put up a desk for that evil star, right?"

In Jizhou, the reputation of An Xinlin, the governor of Beishuo, is more frightening than that of Dong Bai. In addition to the geographical proximity, An Xinlin's own strength is also a factor.

What does it mean to have a mechanical monster with a blood purity of up to 93%? It is almost the strongest individual in Daqian at present.

There are rumors that the Yuan family is not without innate-level combat power. It is said that one of their innate ancestors used some method to prolong his life and thus preserved an innate person for the Yuan family.

But for a warrior, it’s not like a doctor, the older the better!

No matter whether it is a half-demon of mixed blood or a martial artist of a certain school, they all rely on qi and blood to fight. A young and strong man will always be the best at fighting!

An old ancestor who is barely surviving in the world, even if he has innate combat power, how strong can he be? He may not even be as good as Dong Bai, whose bloodline is only 90%. An Xinlin can probably kill him in seconds with just one hand.

When An Xinlin congratulated the young master of the Yuan family, he felt a subtle and strange feeling, like Zhang Sanfeng giving a gift to Zhou Zhiruo.

"You may not know, but I have some inside information!"

"Oh, what do you say?"

"I heard that the young master of the Yuan family has awakened the blood of the black bird, and the concentration of the blood is as high as 91%."

"really?"

"It's true! My aunt's seventh uncle's granddaughter's husband's cousin is working in the Yuan Mansion. This is not a secret in the Yuan Mansion. Otherwise, how could they suddenly confirm that he is the young master of the family?"

"Gui Gui, the new young master of the Yuan family is incredible!"

"That's right, it's the black bird, a close relative of the phoenix, it can't be compared to that mixed-blood python bull."

"This will be very serious in the future."

...Outside the Yuan Mansion, rumors were spreading at the buffet, but people who had not seen it with their own eyes would not have been able to guess that An Xinlin was indeed there in person, but he did not attend the banquet. Instead, he was negotiating with the young master of the Yuan family in a secret room.

At this moment, although the nominal head of the Yuan family is still Yuan Kui, the third minister who is suffering in Kyoto, the person who actually calls the shots has become Yuan Shao.

No one objected. From the moment Yuan Shao awakened 91% of the Xuanniao bloodline, she had become the de facto leader of the Yuan family.

The direct descendants of the Yuan family, with the blessing of 91% of bloodline, have no rivals at all.

Unless another innate warrior appears in the Yuan family, or another half-demon with more than 90% bloodline awakens.

But no one has ever considered that probability. The appearance of one Yuan Shao is a stroke of luck for the Yuan family, and no one would expect a second one to appear.

The cohesion of the bloodline family is quite terrifying. Even Yuan Shu, the female ghost who used to call Yuan Shao "trash", has buried her dissatisfaction with Yuan Shao in her heart. At least on the surface, she no longer calls her sister "trash".

"I am Yuan Shao, a commoner, meeting the governor of Beishuo."

"A commoner girl?"

An Xinlin's expression could not be seen as he was covered by the mecha, but it was not difficult to hear a hint of amusement in that cold and mature voice. The words "Young Master of the Yuan Family" and "Common Girl" cannot be said to be closely related, but can only be said to be completely unrelated.

"Isn't she just a commoner? After all, I am not a royal servant now. I am just a poor person who has fled back home."

"A poor man has no business talking to me."

As it spoke, the eyes of the white mecha turned slightly red, and an invisible pressure spread out. An Xinlin didn't have any ill intentions, he just wanted to test the quality of this fellow.

"This boring test is almost over, Your Excellency the Governor." Yuan Shao waved her sleeves nonchalantly. The inky flame seemed to burn on her body, but it did not cause any damage. It beat slowly as if it had life.

Although the concentration of his blood is still not as high as An Xinlin's, the two can be considered as people of the same level. Even if Yuan Mochu's strength is still inferior to An Xinlin, the gap is not so big that he can crush the opponent with momentum.

"Hahahahahahaha, Xuanniao bloodline—not bad. Tell me, how much do you want, and what can you give?"

"I want five thousand."

Giving gifts and celebrating is of course just a cover. An Xinlin is not here to eat, nor to give gifts, but to discuss a big deal.

"are you kidding me?"

An Xinlin didn't even ask the price and directly refused.

What the two were talking about was soldiers. Yuan Shao wanted to buy some of An Xinlin's elite troops and was willing to pay a price for it.

Yuan Shao knew very well that with the influence of the Yuan family's four generations of officials and Dong Bai's bad reputation, Yuan Shao would be able to quickly gather a large number of people as long as he started a rebellion.

But when it comes to the army, quantity is one thing and quality is another.

When the two armies really come to war, ten conscripted recruits are no match for one veteran soldier who has been through many battles.

You have to know that Dong Bai has a full 100,000 Xiliang cavalry under his command. Although there may be some water in this 100,000-strong army, they are all veterans who have experienced war. Yuan Shao certainly can't be naive enough to think that he can compete with Dong Bai by just capturing a few able-bodied men.

Therefore, Yuan Shao needs An Xinlin's support. As long as An Xinlin is willing to give him a small number of soldiers and mix these old soldiers into the new army, it can play a very positive role.

Since An Xinlin came here in person, she naturally expressed her willingness to sell, but Yuan Shao asked for five thousand, which made her speechless.

You have to know that she actually only had 30,000 elite veterans, and Yuan Shao asked for 5,000, which caused a lot of trouble.
