    "Empire Hegemony" Chapter 78

    The personal guard quickly fetched a basin of cold water, and with the sound of splashing water, Chen Ziang washed his face to wake himself up.

    They narrowly escaped death to complete the task of luring the enemy and wiped out the forward troops of the Dynasty Army. It can be said that they have won a big victory.

    But Chen Ziang couldn't be happy at the moment, because he was dazzled by the victory for a while, so that he was teased by others, which caused the displeasure of the commander-in-chief Zhang Dayuan.

    The master of high meritorious service has always been a taboo. He, Chen Ziang, rose in the Qinghe army like a dazzling star, unstoppable.

    It was an exception for Zhang Dayuan to hold a grand welcoming ceremony for him, but someone took the opportunity to call out Long Live Chen Shen, and gave him a hard time.

    "Damn, it's so easy to hide from a hidden arrow, it's hard to defend against it." Chen Ziang couldn't help cursing secretly.

    Although with his ability, even if he leaves the Qinghe Army, he can still flourish.

    But he all knows that it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree, and being able to take shelter under the banner of the Qinghe Army can reduce many troubles.

    Although the Far Eastern Dynasty is extremely decayed, wars are raging in all provinces, and the imperial court's control over various places is constantly weakening.

    However, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and the strength of the Far Eastern Dynasty is declining rapidly, but they still have an elite central army unit, a tough frontier guard and other troops.

    Any army from these Far Eastern dynasties would be enough for him, Chen Ziang, to drink a pot, not to mention the overwhelming number of rebels and local guards.

    If you want to stand out in this turbulent age, you can't do it alone, maybe you will be wiped out before you get to the top.

    Now that Chen Ziang is weak, he can only shelter his own strength under the banner of the Qinghe Army.

    "It seems that we have to be more wary of Xu Fu and his son in the future."

    Chen Ziang suffered a secret loss this time, although he hated Xu Fu and his son so much in his heart.

    But Xu Fu is the No. 3 figure in the Qinghe Army, he is just a general, he is not stupid enough to touch an egg with a stone.

    Things have reached the worst possible outcome, and it's useless to think too much, so we can only be careful and take every step forward. Chen Ziang quickly put aside his messy thoughts.

    "Come on, go to the kitchen and get me something to eat."

    Chen Zi'ang was filled with wine at the celebration banquet, but he didn't eat delicious food, and his stomach was rumbling at the moment.

    "No!"

    After the personal guard responded, the sound of footsteps soon disappeared.

    In just half an hour, footsteps sounded outside again.

    "Huh? Miss Shen, why are you here?"

    Chen Ziang thought that the guards had prepared the food, but who knew that it was Shen Xiuxiu who walked into the military tent carrying the food box.

    Under the soft light, Shen Xiuxiu's pretty face and graceful figure made Chen Ziang fantasize too, so guilty that he didn't dare to meet her gaze.

    "I heard that the general was hungry after drinking, so I made some porridge with my own hands and brought it to the general. Please eat it while it's hot."

    After Shen Xiuxiu saluted Chen Ziang slightly, she brought out a large bowl of porridge and a stack of side dishes from the food box.

    "Miss Shen has a heart."

    Chen Ziang heard the concern in Shen Xiuxiu's words, and there was a warm current in his heart, after all, it feels good to be cared about.

    Chen Ziang was also hungry, picked up a large bowl of hot porridge, took a big mouthful, and immediately felt much more comfortable in his stomach.

    "Miss Shen, this clear porridge you made is really good." Chen Ziang praised Shen Xiuxiu when he saw Shen Xiuxiu standing beside him.

    Shen Xiuxiu stroked her hair and replied, "As long as the general likes it."

    "I don't know if Miss Shen has anything else to do?"

    Seeing Shen Xiuxiu who hesitated to speak, Chen Ziang put a piece of side dish into his mouth, and couldn't help but raise his head to ask.

    After Shen Xiuxiu glanced at Chen Ziang, she gritted her teeth, as if she had something to hide.

    "Miss Shen, just say anything, has someone bullied you?" Chen Ziang asked curiously after inviting Shen Xiuxiu to sit down.

    "With the general backing us, naturally no one dares to bully us, thank you general for your concern." Shen Xiuxiu said thanks.

    "What's that? Let's just say it, if I can help, I will."

      Now the Far East Commercial Firm run by their Shen family is one of the main sources of military expenses for their 9th Battalion, so Chen Ziang naturally wants to take care of the Shen family.

    "General, there is a sentence I don't know whether to say or not."

    "But it's okay to say."

    "The general is wise and martial, and he has led the army to win many battles. Everyone in the Qinghe Army knows everyone, and his reputation is as high as the sky."

    Shen Xiuxiu looked at Chen Ziang who was gulping down the porridge, as if she mustered up her courage, and first praised Chen Ziang greatly.

    Being able to be praised by such a great lady, Chen Ziang's mind was greatly satisfied, and he nodded frequently.

    "It's just that the height of the building is easy to fall, and the height of the tree is easy to break. I also ask the general to act in a low-key manner in the future to reduce unnecessary troubles."

    Shen Xiuxiu quickly changed the topic, and looked at Chen Ziang's face while talking, ready to shut up at any time.

    After Chen Ziang heard Shen Xiuxiu's words, he re-examined Shen Xiuxiu with a cloudy complexion. He didn't expect that Shen Xiuxiu, a lady of great family, would understand such a truth.

    "This is just a superficial remark of a commoner girl. If the general finds it unpleasant, he can ignore it."

    Shen Xiuxiu was also stared at by Chen Ziang's straight eyes, making her whole body uncomfortable, her slender hands tugged at the hem of her skirt, her heart pounding like a child who did something wrong.

    "Miss Shen is right. I, Chen Ziang, have been taught."

    Chen Ziang withdrew his gaze, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "If Miss Shen reminded me earlier, I wouldn't suffer a dark loss today."

    After Shen Xiuxiu heard what Chen Ziang said, she was also quite surprised. She didn't expect that Chen Ziang himself had realized this.

    Shen Xiuxiu also participated in the welcome ceremony during the day, and only then did she realize the problem when she heard someone yelling "Long live General Chen", so she took the opportunity of delivering porridge to remind Chen Ziang.

    But what Shen Xiuxiu didn't expect was that Chen Ziang had already realized it, and her reminder seemed unnecessary.

    "Since the general has already thought about it, the girl will not say more, and I would like to ask the general to rest as soon as possible, so I will leave." Shen Xiuxiu stood up and wanted to leave after speaking.

    "Miss Shen stay here."

    "What orders does the general have?"

    "I don't know something. I forcibly detained your family in my camp. Why don't you hate me, but want to help me?" Chen Ziang asked.

    After Shen Xiuxiu heard this, she couldn't help showing a wry smile.

    "The general's words are wrong. If the general hadn't taken him in, our family would have died in the chaos. I should thank the general. Why do you hate the general?"

    "Furthermore, my Shen family has become the court's most important sea arrester, and now I can only live in the Qinghe Army. In the huge Qinghe Army, we only know the general, and the Far East Chamber of Commerce also relies on the general for support. Our Shen family  Now that you and the general are all prosperous and all are damaged, we naturally hope that you, the general, will not fall down."

    After hearing what Shen Xiuxiu said, Chen Ziang touched the bridge of his nose, and felt that it seemed to be the same reason.

    He originally thought that Shen Xiuxiu was just a merchant's daughter, but what she said at this moment made Chen Ziang re-examine this talented and beautiful girl.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
