I have a role in the heavens

Yang Qian smiled slightly and nodded.

"What Commander Zhuang said is true. In that case, I will mobilize five hundred troops. I just want to trouble Commander Zhuang and hold the battle together. I wonder if you are willing?"

Yang Qian took a deep look at Zhuang Tong. He changed the name he used to address Zhuang Tong. He obviously intended to take Zhuang Tong under his command. Naturally, he could no longer call him master. As for his final inquiry, he was also extending an olive branch. See if the other person is willing to take it.

Zhuang Tong was stunned when he heard this, and then he was overjoyed. He knew what the noble man in front of him meant. Without any hesitation, he knelt down on the ground and said respectfully.

"The general is willing, please take care of me from the fourth prince in the future!"

Yang Qian nodded. This Zhuang Tong was a sensible man. He did not miss the opportunity and knew how to seize it. As long as he hesitated just a moment ago, Yang Qian would not accept him as his subordinate. In the future, he would treat him as an ordinary acquaintance at best.

Yang Gan bent down and reached out to help Zhuang Tong, patted his shoulder, and then changed his words.

"Master Zhuang, we are old acquaintances. You and I understand each other. Over the years, I have been taught by you and helped me hide it. Of course I am very grateful. Why should I be so polite!"

Zhuang Tong's heart warmed slightly, his face was slightly moved, and he still said firmly.

"Fourth prince, there is a difference between superiority and inferiority, and the last general will not dare to cross it!!"

Yang Qian nodded, satisfied with Zhuang Tong's propriety, and continued.

"Although my father gave me one month to suppress the bandits, without further delay, I decided to send troops to destroy the bandits today, otherwise I am afraid that someone will set up obstacles for me!"

Yang Qian's worry was not unreasonable. He had not failed to notice the hostility and scrutiny of the prince and several other adult princes. As long as he delayed a little, he believed that the number of masters among the bandits would inevitably increase sharply, even if a few appeared. He was not even curious about a master in the Grand Master realm.

When Zhuang Tong heard this, his expression changed immediately. After thinking for a moment, he understood Yang Qian's worries and said quickly.

"The general can mobilize troops at any time, but the general is worried that if he personally follows the army to suppress the bandits, will people misunderstand that the fourth prince is forming a clique for personal gain?"

Zhuang Tong didn't care about people knowing that he had taken refuge with the fourth prince Yang Qian, but he was afraid that other princes and even Emperor Qian would be jealous of Yang Qian after knowing about it, which would ruin Yang Qian's plans and be detrimental to Yang Qian's future development.

Yang Gan's eyes flashed with disdain and he said very calmly.

"I just deliberately let people know that you are mine. It doesn't matter if the prince and others find out!"

"As for my father, the fact that I can recover you is a way of showing my ability to my father. My father will not mind, but will entrust me with a heavy responsibility!"

After all, Zhuang Tong was a military commander and was not very proficient in the planning of these conspiracies. Seeing that Yang Qian had already made a plan in his mind, he naturally stopped worrying and just obeyed his orders.

"Please wait a moment, the fourth prince, the general will gather the troops right now!"

Yang Qian nodded and sat on the general's chair, quietly waiting for the troops to be summoned.

There are only five or six thousand bandits in Yunshan, and the ones with the highest level of cultivation are only innate martial arts masters. They are no match for the Royal Forest Army. What's more, there is Zhuang Tong, a master at the peak of the Grand Master, who is suppressed before dark. Yang Gan wiped out.

After hearing the news, the prince and others sighed secretly, but they were still a step too slow. Before their men could be sent out, Yunshan was wiped out, catching them completely off guard.

When the prince and others learned that Zhuang Tong was personally fighting for Yang Qian, they couldn't help but frown and felt a little wary of Yang Qian's methods. On his first day as a political director, he roped in a deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army. His methods were really shocking.

Emperor Qian smiled slightly and sighed softly after listening to the information from the spy.

"It seems that my son is far more capable than imagined. He made a time lag so that the prince and others had no time to arrange, and completed the task assigned by me, and even accepted Zhuang Tong as his subordinate. From this point of view, it seems that it is You can consider adding some extra burdens to him!”

The next day, in the morning court again, Yang Qian reported the process of suppressing bandits to Emperor Qian. After listening to Emperor Qian expressionlessly, he praised a few words and assigned Yang Qian another task.

Most of the grain and grass in Yujing City is transported to the capital from the south by water, and caravans from the south are also transported to the capital by water. However, above the canal, there are twelve linked water villages, each of which has a There are thousands of water bandits, and there are many masters. There is at least one great master behind them, and there are more than ten innate martial arts masters. They intercept the merchant ships up and down the canal, burn, kill, and loot. They do all kinds of evil, which seriously affects the development of Yujing City. Business and food security.

Yang Gan showed no fear at all and accepted the order directly. After the dynasty was dismissed, he directly asked Zhuang Tong to mobilize his 20,000 troops and set off directly to the water stronghold in a warship. After arriving at the water stronghold, he did not stop at all and captured twelve of them overnight. The water village was uprooted, and the head of the great master was beheaded, which was attributed to Yang Qian.

During the early morning court session, Yang Qian wore Mingguang armor and carried the head of the great master. He stepped directly into the court hall and returned his orders to Emperor Qian. Everyone in the court was dumbfounded, and their impression of the fourth prince, who had never been famous in the past, changed drastically.

As expected, Emperor Qian was very satisfied with Yang Qian's vigorous and resolute actions. He made the fourth prince Yang Qian the Jade Prince on the spot, and he was given the prince's salary. He became the God of Wealth of the imperial court and stood out among the princes. The threshold of the palace was almost trampled to pieces.

The reaction of the Jade Prince Yang Qian was beyond everyone's expectations. He only accepted Zhuang Tongyi, the deputy commander of the Royal Forest Army. He no longer recruited a large number of disciples to clear out guests and recruit heroes. Instead, he became a solitary man above the court, neither fighting nor grabbing. , so that the prince and others relaxed their vigilance and fear towards him, and no longer suppressed him, but adopted methods to win over him. Unfortunately, the Jade Prince Yang Qian still remained neutral and became a lonely minister, just burying himself in the household department. He kept his secrets and never participated in the fights between the prince and other princes.

Soon, the eyes in the court were no longer looking at Prince Jade, because another man of great influence appeared in the court, a young hero, less than fifteen years old, who traveled hundreds of thousands of miles in foreign lands, and was the first champion in the army. . Throughout the dynasties, champions were awarded the title of young general to reward young men for their bravery and bravery. After nearly sixty years of service, this one was awarded the title.

Although the champion Hou Yang An was young, he only led a team of a thousand cavalry and dared to raid the interior of the Yunmeng Kingdom. He broke through dozens of cities and traveled hundreds of thousands of miles across the foreign land. When the leader of the Mongolian Kingdom, Nalan Yihong, heard that the champion Hou Xiaojiang was coming, he was so frightened that he couldn't even eat.

It can be imagined that this young champion was majestic and definitely not simple. He was deeply loved by Emperor Qian and regarded him as his nephew.
