Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 124

Chapter 124: Only One Master
After walking for more than ten minutes, Xie Yanghui and the others came to a large area covered with large tents. Looking at the clean environment and the newly built tents, Xie Yanghui raised his eyebrows slightly.

As they walked, the young man said, “These tents are prepared for your soldiers. As long as they obey our rules, they can live here as long as they like.”

Xie Yanghui turned to look at the young man and said, “The rumors outside are indeed not credible. Yan Junwang is not as bad as they said.”

The young man did not respond to his words and continued to lead him to another area. After walking for another five minutes, the young man finally said, “Supreme General, this is the bathhouse. After taking a bath, everyone can go to the dining area to eat. We have prepared enough food for everyone, so please feel free to enjoy it.”

Hearing this, Xie Yanghui raised his eyebrows in surprise. It’s a public secret that the Jin Yi Army is Yan Junwang’s private army and doesn’t receive any money from the imperial court.

Based solely on the rewards for his military achievement, Yan Junwang should not have much money in his pocket. With more than two hundred thousand soldiers to be fed, clothed, equipped, and trained, Yan Junwang must spend a lot of money.

Thinking about the poor Yan Junwang, Xie Yanghui was very grateful that they prepared food for his soldiers despite their difficult economic conditions. He smiled and said, “Thank you for your consideration.”

Seeing that he was very satisfied with this arrangement, the young man clasped his fists and said, “I still have things to do. Supreme General, please enjoy your stay.”

After saying that, the young man left. A few seconds later, the military advisor of the Xie Army walked up to Xie Yanghui and said, “That young man does not regard you as his superior.”

Hearing this, Xie Yanghui chuckled and said, “Of course not. The soldiers of the Jin Yi Army have only one master, and that person is Yan Junwang. They didn’t even take the emperor seriously at all. Why would they take me seriously?”

After speaking, he paused for a moment and then added, “It’s quite surprising that the emperor actually let his younger cousin brother form an army of this size. He even gave Yan Junwang the title of Zheng Bei Hou, which possessed the power and authority to raise and command five hundred thousand soldiers. I don’t know if that willful brat really trusts Yan Junwang or is just testing him.”

As soon as these words came out, the military advisor fell into silence. Seeing his friend’s frowning expression, Xie Yanghui patted his shoulder and said, “Don’t worry. Even though he is willful and doesn’t look serious, he is a wise emperor. He should know what he is doing.”

After saying that, he yawned and said, “I’m going home. Ke Xianhao, you should get some sleep. Tonight’s banquet will be your battlefield. I’m counting on you.”

Ke Xianhao sighed and said, “All right. Let’s meet at the banquet.”

After Xie Yanghui and Ke Xianhao left the Jin Yi Army military camp, the soldiers took turns bathing and eating.

After leaving Jin Yi Army military camp, Xie Yanghui rode back to his mansion near the imperial palace. Since he had removed his armor before leaving the military camp, the commoner did not recognize him, and he arrived at his mansion smoothly.

When he stopped his horse in front of the mansion, Xie Yanghui looked at the group of people waiting outside. Looking at the old lady standing at the front, his eyes became cold. He dismounted, threw the reins to the guard, and walked into the mansion without looking at anyone.

The old lady looked at his back in disbelief, stamped her long cane heavily on the ground, and shouted angrily, “Unfilial son! Is this how you treat your mother?!”

Xie Yanghui paused on his track when he heard this. He didn’t even turn to look at the old madam and sneered, “From the moment you forcibly divorced my wife on my behalf, you are no longer my mother!”

Xie Yanghui dropped these words and walked into the mansion regardless of his mother’s angry shouts. Behind him, Old Madam Xie stood outside the gate, dizzy with anger. When her body swayed, everyone was startled and quickly helped her stabilize her body.

Gui Momo, who had been serving Old Madam Xie since she was young, quickly patted Old Madam Xie gently on the back and said softly, “Lao Tai Tai, don’t be angry. Be careful of your health.”

Old Madam Xie pointed at the mansion and said angrily, “Look at him! How can I not be angry?! That bitch has been gone for seventeen years, but he hasn’t given up yet! I don’t know what kind of confused soup she fed him that he stubbornly refused to let her go!”

Seeing that Old Madam Xie’s face was red with anger, one of the women waiting on the side quickly took Old Madam Xie’s arm and said gently, “Aunt, don’t be angry. Everyone knows that Lao Ye still has a grudge against you because of that incident. But in the final analysis, doesn’t he still need to be filial to you? As long as you speak nicely, I believe Lao Ye will listen to you.”

Old Madam Xie looked at the woman and patted the back of her hand gently, “Ying’er, don’t worry. Auntie will let Yanghui marry you.”

Hearing Old Madam Xie’s assurance, Fu Shuying just smiled. This promise had been delayed for seventeen years. After waiting for so long, she had given up her dream of becoming Xie Yanghui’s wife. As long as she could live in Xie Guogong’s mansion, the noble madams and ladies still needed to give her face and smile when they greeted her.

Although she comes from a poor farmer family, so what? Don’t those people still need to curry favor with her now? Thinking of the new military achievements and the rewards Xie Yanghui would receive at tonight’s banquet, Fu Shuying almost showed her true feelings on her face.
