Bai Yifei was his right-hand man, but now he was killed by Yang Chong. This was tantamount to cutting off one of his arms. If it were not for the fact that Yang Chong's martial arts were so terrifying that he could kill Bai Yifei, he would have wanted to kill Yang Chong now.

At this time, Ji Wuye felt a little regretful. He regretted that he should not have recruited Yang Chong into his team. His original intention was just to use Yang Chong to restrain Bai Yifei and just treat Yang Chong as a tool. He never thought that Yang Chong would actually kill Bai Yifei directly.

"General, Bai Yifei secretly controls Tianze but does not tell you. He claims that he has nightmares above the night sky. It is obvious that he is not loyal to you and is just using you. Now I kill him and I am getting rid of a big worry for you!" Yang Chong said.

"Oh, go on. Let me see how you can convince me." Ji Wuye sneered. Now he was already planning how to get rid of Yang Chong. What he wanted was a dog, not a tiger that could eat its master at any time.

"General, now that Bai Yifei is dead, there is a vacancy in the army. The most important thing now is to fill the gap left by Bai Yifei." Yang Chong said.

"Use you?" Ji Wuye sneered. Why didn't he realize that Yang Chong's ambition was so big before?

"I am not good at military affairs and cannot do such a thing. Who will fill the gap left by Bai Yifei should be decided by the general himself. But no matter what, the position left by Bai Yifei cannot be taken by someone with ulterior motives." Yang Chong's answer was beyond Ji Wuye's expectations.

Yang Chong didn't care at all about South Korea's military power, because he would leave South Korea soon, and he couldn't take South Korea's military territory with him. Even if he had the military power now, what could it do? Compared with the military power, Yang Chong was still most interested in Ye Mu's intelligence system and killers.

Ji Wuye couldn't help but be shocked when Yang Chong reminded him of this. He was just shocked and angry about Bai Yifei's death, but now he realized that it was useless to investigate Bai Yifei's death. The most important thing now was to get the things left by Bai Yifei. If Zhang Kaidi, Han Yu and others divided up the inheritance left by Bai Yifei, he would suffer a great loss.

"Come with me into the palace." Ji Wuye stood up. Now was not the time to hold Yang Chong accountable.

……

When Ji Wuye rushed to King Han's palace, King Han'an, Zhang Kaidi, Han Yu and others also received the news one after another.

"What, my cousin is dead?" Madam Mingzhu, who had been accompanying Han Wangan, trembled in her hand and the jade cup fell to the ground.

Her invincible cousin was actually dead, and it was Yang Chong who killed him? Madam Mingzhu felt cold hands and feet. She knew that Bai Yifei was going to kill Yang Chong, and he even brought a team of white-armored soldiers with him. In Korea, Bai Yifei should be invincible with the help of the white-armored soldiers. How could he be killed by Yang Chong?

"Marquis Xueyi was killed?" The fat on Han Wangan's face was trembling constantly, unable to hide the shock in his heart.

"Father, Bai Yifei was not killed, but executed." Han Fei corrected. Now that the matter was done, he could only follow Yang Chong's ideas.

Chapter 144 I will be a superior person in the future

Han Wangan looked at his son in front of him and felt a strange feeling.

Whether Bai Yifei was killed or executed, although the result was that Bai Yifei died, the nature of the matter was completely different. Could Han Fei have come up with such a cruel method?

Han Wangan knew his son well. He was smart, and was definitely the best among his brothers. But as for his methods? He was too honest and lacked ruthlessness. Han Fei could think of many methods, but he would not use them.

So, who was behind Bai Yifei's death?

What role did Yang Chong, the murderer, play in this?

How will Ji Wuye react?

For a moment, these questions flooded into Han Wangan's mind at the same time, and he fell silent.

Just then, Ji Wuye also arrived, and with him came Yang Chong.

"Yang Chong, this time you killed Tianze and rescued the prince, which is a great achievement. Tell me, how should I reward you?" Han Wangan, who was unable to express his opinion on the matter of Bai Yifei, directly changed the topic to Tianze and the prince. He still needed some time to sort out the matter of Bai Yifei's death.

"Your Majesty, Yang Chong's achievements are not just killing Tianze and rescuing the prince." Han Wangan also left himself time to maximize the benefits of Bai Yifei's death, but Ji Wuye would not give Han Wangan a chance. He now only wanted to characterize Bai Yifei's death and then divide the inheritance left by Bai Yifei.

"Anything else?" Han Wangan looked at Ji Wuye, and the intrigue between the monarch and his subjects began.

"Yang Chong has also uncovered the mastermind behind all this, Snow Robe Marquis Bai Yifei. Your Majesty, Bai Yifei is dead now, but the Snow Robe Marquis' influence in the military and local areas has been complicated over the past two generations. In order to avoid unrest, we need to clean them up and appease them as soon as possible." Ji Wuye said.

"Does the general have any candidates to recommend?" asked Han Wangan. He didn't know what to do. He could only wait and see what Ji Wuye was going to do and then act accordingly.

"Reporting to the king, this matter must be handled by me. If it is someone else, something unexpected might happen." Ji Wuye replied.

"If the general comes forward, it will naturally be enough to solve all problems. However, the Snow Robe Marquis's Mansion also has considerable influence in Nanyang. Those people are not from the army, so it is not convenient for the general to come forward." Han Wangan murmured.

At this time, King Han An was relieved. Although he was shocked, he also found some truth from Ji Wuye's words.

Ji Wuye did not intend to take advantage of Bai Yifei's death to cause trouble. Instead, he wanted to divide the inheritance left by Bai Yifei. This means that Ji Wuye and Bai Yifei were not of the same mind.

However, it was precisely because of this that Han Wangan realized that he must not let Ji Wuye monopolize Bai Yifei's inheritance. If that happened, Ji Wuye's strength would only become more terrifying. But who else could divide the inheritance left by Bai Yifei with Ji Wuye?

Han Wangan thought about it and looked at Han Fei in front of him. Through Han Fei, he thought of a person: Wei Zhuang.

Wei Zhuang was a disciple of the School of Diplomacy. As a disciple of Guiguzi, he could be treated with courtesy in any country. In this era, although there were many schools of thought, the most valuable "graduate" was definitely the School of Diplomacy.

It can be said that Wei Zhuang can gain a high position in any country just by relying on his identity, and no one will doubt his strength. If Wei Zhuang is pushed forward, it would be a good choice, because Wei Zhuang is Han Fei's man, and Han Fei and Ji Wuye are mortal enemies.

Han Wangan was thinking that he had already regarded Wei Zhuang as an excellent tool, but all this required a prerequisite, that is, Ji Wuye's cooperation.

He knew very well that without Ji Wuye's cooperation, even if he pushed Wei Zhuang forward, it would be difficult for Wei Zhuang to occupy the military power vacuum left by Bai Yifei's death.

If he wants Ji Wuye to cooperate, he needs to give Ji Wuye something in exchange that will make his heart beat. But Ji Wuye is already a great general now. What does he care about most?

Han Wangan pondered and gradually came up with an idea. He looked at Yang Chong and said, "Han Fei is the Sikou, and he is in charge of the prison. Since Bai Yifei is plotting a rebellion, Han Fei can go to Nanyang to investigate the illegal activities of the Marquis of Xueyi's mansion. In addition, Wei Zhuang has also made great contributions in uncovering Bai Yifei's conspiracy this time, so he can serve as the left Sima to assist Han Fei in the investigation."

"Your Majesty..." Ji Wuye was about to stop him when he heard Han Wangan continue, "Yang Chong has made the greatest contribution in this incident and should be rewarded. We should promote Yang Chong to Sima and put him in charge of the internal and external defense of Xinzheng. What do you think, General?"

"Huh?" Ji Wuye was stunned and couldn't react for a moment.

Although the General's Mansion is extremely powerful, it is impossible for it to completely control the defense of Xinzheng and the royal palace. After all, this is Han Wangan's territory. No matter how incompetent Han Wangan is, it is impossible for him to hand over all the military power of Xinzheng to Ji Wuye. That would not be incompetent, but mentally retarded.

The army of Xinzheng was divided into three systems. One was the palace guards. There were not many of them, only 3,000 people, but they were one of the most elite troops in the Han army. The other system was the army guarding the walls and gates of Xinzheng. This part of the army had the largest number of people, enough to be 12,000 people, and was commanded by the right Sima. The last army had 5,000 people, who were responsible for patrolling and maintaining security in Xinzheng City and outside the palace, and were under the charge of the left Sima.

Since Li Kai's death, the position of Right Sima has been vacant, and Ji Wuye could only continue to infiltrate the interior. The people in the General's Mansion were at most equal to those of Han Wangan. As for the Left Sima department, after Liu Yi's death, although Ji Wuye took the opportunity to interfere with the Left Sima department, he only controlled less than half of the Left Sima department.

It can be said that in Xinzheng, the army controlled by the General's Office is not necessarily much larger than that of Han Wangan. But now, Han Wangan wants Yang Chong to take up the position of Sima. You must know that the position of Sima is one of the five official positions together with Situ, Sikong, Sishi and Sikou, and is in charge of military affairs and military taxes. For many years, the Kingdom of Han only had left and right Sima, but no Sima. This shows how crucial the position of this official position is and how important the power is.

But now, Han Wangan is preparing to let Yang Chong take the position of Sima, and Yang Chong is from the General's Mansion. Ji Wuye quickly calculated the pros and cons. Is this the exchange condition for letting Han Fei and Wei Zhuang participate in the division of Bai Yifei's inheritance?

Ji Wuye thought about it and felt that he couldn't refuse the condition proposed by King Han! Once Yang Chong took the post of Sima, the entire Xinzheng, except for the royal guards of the palace, all the armed forces in Xinzheng City would be under the jurisdiction of the general. How could such a temptation be comparable to those forces in Nanyang?

As for whether Yang Chong would listen to the General's Mansion, Ji Wuye was not worried about it. Not to mention that it would be difficult for Han Wangan and Yang Chong to reconcile, what would happen even if the two reconciled?

Yang Chong was a lonely man, and even if he was appointed as Sima, it was still unclear whether his subordinates would listen to him. However, he could use Yang Chong to infiltrate his people into the left and right Sima departments and sideline Yang Chong. Then, even if Yang Chong turned against him, he would not be afraid.

Ji Wuye weighed the pros and cons and he was tempted.

"General, what do you think of my appointment?" Han Wangan asked again. This monarch and his subject knew each other very well. He believed that Ji Wuye would not refuse his appointment of Yang Chong.

"Your Majesty, your opinion is brilliant. I have no objection." Ji Wuye bowed his head and said.

Finally, after some bargaining and harmonious consultations between the monarch and his subjects, Bai Yifei's death was determined, and Han Wangan and Ji Wuye's men began to attack everywhere to accept the inheritance left by Bai Yifei.

It can be said that in Bai Yifei's death, everyone got what they wanted. The only one who died was Bai Yifei, and the only one who was injured was the tide demon Madam Mingzhu.

In the bedroom, Madam Mingzhu felt cold all over. Bai Yifei was dead, her cousin was dead. As one of the Four Evil Generals of the Night, she was very clear about her position. But now Bai Yifei was dead. Bai Yifei, who controlled an army of 100,000, had great martial arts skills, was a marquis for two generations, and had absolute influence in Nanyang, was dead, and he died so easily.

Who killed my cousin then? Was it the king, Ji Wuye, or Yang Chong? Madam Mingzhu stirred the incense in the incense burner unconsciously, her body trembling.

She knew very well that Yang Chong only killed Bai Yifei and took Bai Yifei's life, but Han Wangan and Ji Wuye killed Xueyi Hou and ruined his cousin's reputation. In this matter, from Yang Chong to Ji Wuye and Han Wangan, they were all murderers.

What about me? What is Ji Wuye and Yang Chong's attitude towards me? Madam Mingzhu didn't dare to imagine it anymore. What if Ye Mu was also going to attack her? Would he have the strength to resist?

What if Han Wangan knew her background?

Without Ye Mu's support, could she still be a seductress who controls Han Wangan's harem?

Madam Mingzhu thought about it and felt that her future was bleak, and all this was because of Yang Chong.

No, this is also because of me? Madam Mingzhu suddenly thought of a situation. It was she who took the initiative to provoke Yang Chong, and it was she who told Bai Yifei the news that Yang Chong was going to capture Tianze. Otherwise, Bai Yifei would not have led the white-armored soldiers to kill Yang Chong.

There was nothing wrong with this matter, because Bai Yifei should have been invincible with the white-armored soldiers on his left and right. In terms of personal martial arts, even Ji Wuye, who was known as the strongest general in Korea in the past hundred years, was not Bai Yifei's opponent. But something unexpected happened.

She and Bai Yifei underestimated Yang Chong's strength.

So, I am the culprit? Mrs. Mingzhu felt even darker when she thought of this.

No matter how gloomy Madam Mingzhu's mood was, most people were happy about Bai Yifei's death.

In just three days, Bai Yifei's inheritance was divided up by Han Wangan, Ji Wuye, Han Fei, and even Han Yu and Zhang Kaidi. In addition to getting the position of Sima, Yang Chong also got a mansion, Bai Yifei's Snow Robe Marquis Mansion.

Standing in the spacious and bright hall of the Marquis of Snow Clothes Mansion, Yang Chong smiled at Yan Lingji beside him and said, "I will be a superior person in the future!"

Chapter 145 Ji Wuye is a good person

When Yang Chong first arrived in Xinzheng, he had to sneak into the city gate, and there were only Yan Lingji and Tian Mi by his side. But now, only a few months have passed, and he has everything.

His official position ranks among the core power in South Korea, and his mansion was once the Mansion of Marquis Xueyi. As for money, he robbed tens of thousands of gold in military pay, and even robbed the Qianlong Hall of the Nong family, and now the Suzaku Pavilion. He can be said to have a considerable fortune. As for martial arts, with the generous gifts from the Nong family, the Mohist masters and Bai Yifei, he has reached a higher level. His skills have reached the limit of a first-class master, and he has even unlocked the third kind of martial arts, Fuxi Shentianxiang, which shows the realm of a master.

In just a few months, Yang Chong was able to reach such heights in terms of power, wealth, and martial arts. Naturally, he had the qualifications to be proud of himself. However, the sentence "I will be a superior person in the future" was a bit too low-key.

Yan Lingji showed a look of disdain at this moment: "Where did this country bumpkin come from?"

"Yan Lingji, you have changed your heart." Faced with Yan Lingji's disdain, Yang Chong's expression changed, with a look of sadness. He looked at Yan Lingji as if he was looking at a woman who had changed her heart.

"Why have I changed? Am I still myself?" Yan Lingji said in surprise. Even though she had already become Yang Chong's closest person, Yan Lingji, who was not very smart, sometimes could not keep up with Yang Chong's routine.

"If you were the old you, you would have happily cooperated with me if you heard this. But now you are actually mocking me. You have changed your heart, haven't you?" Yang Chong said in grief.

"Hey? How come I didn't know I changed my mind?" Yan Lingji tilted her head, still thinking about how to explain to Yang Chong. It was only when she saw the teasing in Yang Chong's expression that she realized it and couldn't help but said unhappily: "What if I dislike you? Now that I'm on your pirate ship, how can I get off?"

"Of course I can't go down." Yang Chong laughed and hugged Yan Lingji's shoulders tightly. Yan Lingji was becoming more and more interesting, even more interesting than before.

"Sir Sima, the general has sent an invitation, inviting you to visit our mansion." At this moment, Tian Mi, dressed in purple, walked in from outside the hall, holding a piece of exquisite silk in her hand, which was the so-called invitation.

"It seems that our great general has divided up a lot of good things. He seems to be in a good mood!" Yang Chong took the silk book, glanced at it casually, and stuffed it into Tian Mi's chest. It was difficult to hide things in it.

"The general was able to achieve this thanks to his master!" Tian Mi said sweetly, not calling out his position, but pushing the silk book that Yang Chong had stuffed into her chest further inside.

This female disciple from a farming family who had endured hardships and endured hardships never forgot her determination. Whenever she had the chance, she would let Yang Chong display his charm.

"I like to hear what you said. You can stay and help Yan Lingji to tidy up our new home. Let's replace the people who need to be replaced." Yang Chong said.

The home is a new home, but the house is not a new house, and the people are not new either. Although Yang Chong does not plan to stay in Korea for too long, he still needs to clean up the place he lives in during this time.

"Who should we replace?" Yan Lingji asked. Being a housekeeper was not something she was good at.

"Change to some pleasing-looking people." Yang Chong said as he walked out of the hall and headed towards the stable in the side yard. Bai Yifei had collected quite a few fine horses, especially the white horse, which was a rare BMW. How could a white horse that could walk on vines as if it were flat ground be ordinary?

However, everything here now belongs to Yang Chong.

"You just know how to cause trouble for me." Looking at Yang Chong leaving, Yan Lingji complained. She was very dissatisfied with Yang Chong's behavior of being a hands-off boss.

"That's because the master trusts you, the mistress!" Tian Mi said with a gentle smile. She found that compared to Yang Chong, whose depth was hard to figure out, Yan Lingji was very easy to deal with. Yan Lingji's beauty put a lot of pressure on women, but Yan Lingji's innocence made it easy for people to guess her thoughts, because in the past two years, Tian Mi had put a lot of effort into Yan Lingji.

After all, Yang Chong is not easy to deal with, so taking a roundabout way to save the country and starting with Yan Lingji becomes Tian Mi's best option.

"You really live up to your name. Your mouth is really sweet. I just don't know if Yang Chong has tasted it. I will ask him when he comes back." Yan Lingji looked at Tian Mi with a smile. With Yang Chong's reminder, she naturally knew Tian Mi's background and intentions clearly, so she would not be confused by Tian Mi's words.

Why do everyone think I'm stupid? Actually, I'm very smart most of the time. Yan Lingji thought, she felt that if Yang Chong wasn't here, she would be bored, so she might as well play with Tian Mi.

"Madam..." Tian Mi's face turned red when she heard the words, and her charming and attractive appearance became even more delicious. Unfortunately, the person in front of her was Yan Lingji. Yan Lingji was not only a woman, but also a woman who was more beautiful than her.

"Don't be embarrassed, tell me about it. If Yang Chong has really tasted it, I can make the decision for him to take you as his roommate." Yan Lingji said with a smile on her face. It's just a joke, who's afraid of who?

"The master likes you the most, Madam." Tian Mi said shyly, but she did not give a direct answer to Yan Lingji's question. However, it was her ambiguous answer that made people think a lot. Is it true or not?

……

While Yan Lingji and Tian Mi were scheming against each other, Yang Chong had already left the mansion on horseback and was heading towards the general.

Ji Wuye was in a good mood recently, but he also felt a little nervous. In the matter of dividing up Bai Yifei's inheritance, he had a real understanding of Bai Yifei, and it was because of this that he felt fortunate.

Bai Yifei hid it too deeply.

Over the years, Ji Wuye only regarded Bai Yifei as his subordinate, as one of the Four Evil Generals of the Night. He never thought that the power Bai Yifei had secretly accumulated was not weaker than that of the General's Mansion.

Thinking of Yang Chong's words that there are more nightmares above the night sky, Ji Wuye couldn't help but feel a sense of fear. If it weren't for Yang Chong's recklessness, he might have really been retaliated by Bai Yifei because he had always relied on Bai Yifei as his confidant.

Therefore, Ji Wuye, who has not only divided up huge benefits recently but also solved a big problem for himself, is in a good mood. Now, he is in a good mood and is going to hold a banquet at home. Yang Chong, who is now a Sima and nominally in charge of the defense of Xinzheng, has become the highest-ranking person under Ji Wuye.

At the banquet, Yang Chong was ranked first among the guests except the host.

Amid the singing and dancing, Ji Wuye, with the beauty in his arms, was unrestrained, but his occasional glances at Yang Chong were full of scrutiny and vigilance.

Bai Yifei is already terrifying, and wouldn’t it be even more terrifying to be able to kill Bai Yifei without Bai Yifei’s plan?

In the midst of the conversation, Ji Wuye said, "Sima Yang, what do you think about letting Mo Ya join the Zuo Sima Department and become a chief historian?"

"Mo Ya?" Yang Chong put down the wine bottle and looked at Mo Ya. It turned out that today's banquet was waiting for him here!

But then again, is it really appropriate for a killer to serve as the Minister of Zuo Sima, who is in charge of Xinzheng’s public security?

Changshi, as the deputy of Zuo Sima, has a high rank. When Zuo Sima does not show up, Changshi is the highest-ranking person in Zuo Sima's department. It is very interesting that Ji Wuye inserted Mo Ya into Zuo Sima's department.

You should know that the Zuo Sima Department at that time was in charge of 5,000 soldiers and horses. Because of its special nature, each colonel was in charge of 1,000 soldiers, which means that the Zuo Sima Department had five colonels, and three of them were Ji Wuye's men. As Ji Wuye's confidant, if Mo Ya were to take up the post of Chief Secretary, as Ji Wuye's spokesperson, he could directly obtain the loyalty of the three colonels, and it could be said that he almost controlled the entire Zuo Sima Department. By then, even Yang Chong, the direct superior, might not be as effective as Mo Ya in the Zuo Sima Department.

Is Ji Wuye, who has so many scandals, on guard against me? Yang Chong looked at Ji Wuye while thinking, and saw that Ji Wuye was also observing his reaction.

"What does Sima Yang think?" Ji Wuye asked again during Yang Chong's silence.

"Mo Ya and I work for the general together. It would be the best if we could both take charge of the Zuo Sima Department in the future. With Mo Ya's help, I think I can completely control the Zuo Sima Department for the general." Yang Chong smiled, as if he didn't see Ji Wuye's real intention at all, so naive that he was almost innocent.

"That's great. From now on, you two must cooperate sincerely. As long as we can completely control Xinzheng, we will really control Korea. At that time, the whole of Korea, power and wealth, will be at our disposal." Ji Wuye laughed. As a powerful official, he had the arbitrariness of a powerful official.

"We all have to rely on the general." Emerald Tiger said excitedly. In the process of dividing up Bai Yifei's inheritance, he also made a fortune. A considerable part of Bai Yifei's property fell into his hands. Now he is in charge of nearly 100,000 gold. Although the real owner of the money is Ji Wuye, he is the one in charge after all. The feeling of sitting on a mountain of gold still makes him addicted.
