After completing these face-saving tasks, Ye Mingsheng met with a general with a somewhat "special" status in the first division in the military camp.
"This is a humble position. I have met the Governor!" Ye Dong bowed to Ye Mingsheng and said:
Hearing this, Ye Mingsheng looked up and down at his clan brother, who was also his first few die-hard brothers in this world...
At this time, after Ye Dong had undergone the baptism of blood and fire of the First Division, both his body and temperament had been greatly changed compared to before. He was a little darker and thinner than before, but he was also more handsome. It has become stronger, and the whole person has become more calm, without the impetuousness of the past.
Patting Ye Dong's shoulder, Ye Mingsheng said with a smile:
"Yuan Song has reported to me your performance in the First Division. You did a good job here!"
"grown ups···········"
Hearing Ye Mingsheng's voice, Ye Dong couldn't help but feel a little excited. Because of his negligence, he was attacked by thieves into the headquarters of the general army, which put Ye Mingsheng in danger. Although everything was safe, there was no danger. , Ye Mingsheng passed safely, but Ye Dong still fell into deep self-blame, and was sent to the rear of the First Division by Ye Mingsheng.
In the battles of the First Division, the reason why Ye Dong always took the lead and charged forward was mainly because he had the ambition to die and wanted to atone for his sins. Until later, under the guidance of Yuan Song, his mentality slowly changed. I want to stay useful and contribute more to Ye Mingsheng’s great cause!
And now Ye Mingsheng's "not bad" is undoubtedly the best affirmation of his hard work and dedication during this period!
Seeing Ye Dong, whose eyes were slightly red and unable to control his emotions, Ye Mingsheng smiled and comforted him:
"I heard that your boy has been in the army for a while and has not gone back to see your mother! Your mother and your brothers and sisters have all moved to Dongning now. It just so happens that the First Division will be stationed in Dongning for a period of time. You go back and stay for a few days, they all miss you!"
Ye Dong was also moved when he heard this, nodded heavily and said:
"yes!"
Seeing this, Ye Mingsheng changed his tone and continued:
"Also, think carefully about whether you will be transferred back or stay in the First Division and continue to serve..."
Ye Dong was a little surprised when he heard Ye Mingsheng's question. Just when he hesitated and was about to answer, Ye Mingsheng waved his hand and said:
"Don't worry! Think about this issue carefully in the next few days, and then tell me your choice!"
"yes!"
Ye Dong nodded and said:
After bidding farewell to Ye Dong, Ye Mingsheng originally wanted to meet Yuan Song's deputy general Ma Zhongjun. Although this boy was young, he was very capable and brave in battle. This time he led a surprise attack on Wang. Kang Xin's camp defeated tens of thousands of the Gongdu New Army under Wang Kangxin's command, forcing Wang Kangxin to commit suicide. He was a rare and valuable young talent in the Fengwu Army.
But it is a pity that because Ye Mingsheng made a sudden inspection without saying hello, Ma Zhongjun, who was unaware, had taken a few days off before. It was said that he was going back to his hometown to visit relatives, and he happened to not be in the military camp today... ·········
Although it was a bit unfortunate, Ye Mingsheng didn't have many regrets. He just told Yuan Song to ask Ma Zhongjun to go to the Governor's Mansion to find him after he returned from his hometown, and he wanted to have a good talk with him.
After doing this, it was already evening. Ye Mingsheng had a meal and drank some wine with the soldiers of the First Division, and after promoting some feelings, he slowly left with the reluctance of the soldiers. The camp in the north of the city returned to his own governor's mansion.
It may be because under the supervision of Pei Zhixiu, Ye Mingsheng pays attention to his health and has not drank for a while and his alcohol capacity has deteriorated. It may also be because he was in a good mood during his inspection of the military camp today and drank too much under the persuasion of the soldiers of the First Division. Anyway, it was okay when I first started drinking it, but when I got home, I felt a little high.
Ye Mingsheng, who was lying in bed with a headache, couldn't help but feel a little regretful in his heart. Why did he give the method of making distilled liquor to the Second Manufacturing Bureau and let them greatly increase the alcohol content? Otherwise, he would just rely on what he had done before. Water and wine, how could he feel so uncomfortable...
Just when Ye Mingsheng was about to feel thirsty in a daze, and was about to call the guards to let him go to the kitchen and find the cook to cook a bowl of sobering soup for him, he only felt a fragrant breeze drifting around him, and then I just heard someone complaining about him while feeding him tea.
Because his head was numb after drinking too much, Ye Mingsheng only felt this voice. He was very familiar with it, but he really didn't recognize who it was.
After drinking the tea, the man started to wipe his body with a warm wet towel and changed him into a set of clean clothes. With this set of clothes, the alcohol in Ye Mingsheng's body was slightly dissipated, and so was his body. He felt much more comfortable. Just when Ye Mingsheng was about to see who was next to him, his eyes could no longer hold back the tiredness and he fell asleep in a daze.
Early the next morning, a ray of warm sunlight hit Ye Mingsheng's face through the window. Ye Mingsheng slowly opened his eyes. After a few seconds of confusion, Ye Mingsheng discovered An Miao lying next to him. according to···············
At this time, An Miaoyi was already five months pregnant. Her body was no longer as thin as before and had become plumper. Her lower abdomen was also slightly bulging.
As if feeling Ye Mingsheng waking up, An Miaoyi also slowly woke up from her sleep. Looking at the tiredness in her eyes, Ye Mingsheng touched her delicate Baixi face and said dotingly:
"Mom, I'm going to go today, you stay here and sleep a little longer!"
Hearing Ye Mingsheng's words, An Miaoyi subconsciously wanted to shake her head and force herself to get up from the bed.
However, Ye Mingsheng's attitude towards this was very determined. He covered her with the quilt again and said:
"Miaoyi, you are the eldest baby of our Ye family now. Have a good sleep today. Mother likes you the most. If you don't go to her house for a day, she won't pick on you..." ···”
Seeing this, An Miaoyi hesitated for a moment, then nodded and obeyed Ye Mingsheng's arrangement.
After another couple of intimate words between husband and wife with An Miaoyi, Ye Mingsheng was ready to leave and start a new day. But just when Ye Mingsheng was about to walk out of the room, he seemed to have thought of something. , turned his back to An Miaoyi and asked:
"Did you, Miaoyi, take care of me when I was drunk last night?"
Hearing Ye Mingsheng's question, An Miaoyi's eyes flashed with an unnoticeable color, but she still said with a smile:
"When I saw my husband last night, he was already asleep. It should be the sister who did it!"
When Ye Mingsheng heard this, he knew it well and explained:
"Have a good rest. When you wake up and want to eat something, let the kitchen cook it for you!"
"Yeah!" An Miaoyi responded obediently:
Without thinking much, Ye Mingsheng immediately turned around and left and walked out of the room. However, what he didn't expect was that shortly after he walked out of the room, the smile on An Miaoyi's face disappeared instantly, replaced by a look of grievance, and her eyes There seems to be a layer of mist in the eyes...

····················
Anqing, Linglong Restaurant.
As the most prestigious Linglong Restaurant in Anqing, it is usually full of guests and guests come and go in an endless stream. However, today the door is closed and no longer accepts outsiders.
At this time, seven or eight sturdy men were enjoying themselves in the restaurant, drinking and drinking. Beside them, more than a dozen graceful dancers were dancing to the music of the musicians.
"Brothers, let's go!"
"Drink this glass of wine!"
"Brother Chen, I respect you!"
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Chen Chongshan, the commander of the Anqing Army, looked around the people at the dinner table, and then asked calmly to his subordinates waiting on the side:
"What time is it now?"
"Reporting to you, sir, it's past noon now and it's midnight!" His subordinate said respectfully:
When Chen Chongshan heard this, a sneer appeared on his face:
"Since it's already the end of the day and I haven't come yet, Lord Xu really doesn't want to give me face...",
As soon as these words came out, the brothers around him immediately became dissatisfied, and the other eight shouted angrily and cursed:
"Why does he make a Marquis instead of a Marquis? In Anqing, Xu Zhaojie is just a son of a bitch. We men will send him to the West with one knife!"
"Yes! Who is Xu Zhaojie? What nonsense is Zhenyuan Hou? He is just a lost dog now. He came to our Anqing ground and knelt down to beg for food. Where in Anqing is it his turn to speak!"
"Brother Chen, we will do whatever you say! We brothers will obey you, go up mountains of swords and seas of fire. If we frown, we are sons of bitches!"
····················
····················
Feeling the support of the brothers beside him, Chen Chongshan couldn't help but have a flash of contentment in his eyes under the gaze of everyone.
Because Duan Yuting, the previous patrol envoy to Anqing, was a civil servant and was not good at military affairs, he had to delegate power in military affairs.
This also gave Chen Chongshan, who started as a soldier and worked his way up the ranks in the army, the space to form cliques and small circles in the Anqing army. He and the other five commanders in the Anqing army followed the example of the Taoyuan Three and formed a sworn brotherhood. Brothers of the opposite sex, and became the leading eldest brother among the six brothers. With this status, although Chen Chongshan's current official position is only a commander, he has actually become the actual commander of the 20,000 Anqing Army!
This time Duan Yuting gave up the position of patrol envoy in Anqing, not only because he did not want to be caught in the dilemma between Cao Changping and Feng Keqin, but also to a large extent because of Chen Chongshan's involvement.
Today Chen Chongshan sent people to kidnap Duan Yuting's grandson, tomorrow he sent people to rape Duan Yuting's concubine, and the day after tomorrow he sent people to rob Duan Yuting's business that received dividends. Duan Yuting was frightened and disturbed by such despicable means. Only then did he have no choice but to give up his position as Anqing's patrol envoy...
As for why Chen Chongshan did this, the reason is naturally very simple. He has also set his sights on the position of the patrol envoy in Anqing!
He originally wanted to ask Duan Yuting to make way for him, but he was following Duan Yuting's lead, just like the storyteller said, and played with Duan Yuting. Finally, he pretended to be reluctant and helpless, and accepted the Anqing patrol from Duan Yuting under the praise of everyone. The position of the envoy.
However, although Chen Chongshan had good ideas, unfortunately there was often a big gap between reality and ideals. Although Duan Yuting was forced by him and had no choice but to give up his position as the patrol envoy in Anqing, he also hated Chen Chongshan deeply and wished he could be... If you eat his flesh raw and drink his blood, how can you be willing to act out a drama with him?
So I simply ignored Chen Chongshan's hints and directly posed the problem to the southern patrol court. Although Chen Chongshan was powerful in Anqing, the court was so poor that no one could speak for him, so he posed this problem to the southern imperial court. Patrolling the imperial court means that Chen Chongshan's plan to patrol the Anqing envoy has completely failed!
In this regard, Chen Chongshan was not a fool. Naturally, he saw Duan Yuting's trick. He was so angry that he wanted to kill Duan Yuting, an old man. However, he was not blinded by anger, and he still had some sense and did not risk the world's disapproval to kill him. Duan Yuting·················
Chen Chongshan, who held military power and dreamed of becoming the new Anqing patrol envoy, naturally couldn't stand Xu Zhaojie's arrival. In his eyes, Xu Zhaojie, the Zhenyuan prince, was a thief who stole the fruits of his victory!
With the departure of Duan Yuting and the arrival of Xu Zhaojie, Chen Chongshan became even more aware of one thing, that is, it was impossible for him, who had no one in the court, to legitimately become the patrol envoy of Anqing!
Realizing this, Chen Chongshan, who went to bed at night and dreamed that he could become the patrol envoy of Anqing, simply did not want to be justified. He had decided that no matter what method he used, he, Chen Chongshan, would become the leader of Anqing territory. Boss, have a good time!
And what happened today at Linglong Restaurant was the banquet he gave Xu Zhaojie in the name of his fiftieth birthday...
Seeing that Xu Zhaojie did not dare to come to the banquet, Chen Chongshan simply did not want to be secretive and directly met with Xu Zhaojie's men. However, he gave the order to let the men who had been ambushed rush into Xu Zhaojie's house and capture Xu Zhaojie and his family. When his family members were hacked to death, one of his men hurried over and said:
"Tell your lord, Xu Zhaojie is here!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone including Chen Chongshan, who was about to make a bold move, couldn't help but be a little surprised, but Chen Chongshan quickly reacted and said in a deep voice:
"Since Mr. Xu is here, why not invite Mr. Xu in quickly..."
