C328 Betting (2)

"No, this old official did not make this decision rashly. So what if I let him take over this huge army of 100,000?" On the other hand, he had to get past the fifth branch chief Lei Sheng first. If not, with Lei Sheng's temper, he believed that no one would be able to touch his troops that easily! This can also be considered as my examination of that kid. Everything will be up to him! " The old dean explained to the emperor while stroking his beard and smiling.

He had long since sent a message to Zhan Zhixin, who was the Deputy Chief of the Northern Division, informing him of the relevant arrangements in the letter. The President was very confident that Zhan Zhixin's ability would facilitate all of this. In order to ensure that there were no mistakes, the dean had also mentioned about this matter in his letter to Chief Elder. With the combination of both sides, the brat could only choose to fight Lei Sheng, and this was a rare opportunity to probe deeper into the matter. How could the Principal let this opportunity go?

"Mysterious kid, I'm really looking forward to your brilliant performance!" The dean couldn't help but think this in his heart.

"Haha, Old Headmaster, I have to admit that you are really astute and astute!" His Majesty was assured now. This arrangement could not be any better. It could test the candidate's true abilities and ensure the orderly development of the events that followed. In case that brat did not have such a method, the authority to command would naturally return to Lei Sheng's hands. At this moment, the emperor couldn't help but marvel at the dean's foresight.

"Your Majesty, you flatter me!" The dean humbly bowed and said.

"I am starting to worry for that candidate. With Old Lei's ability, I know that even among the five great generals, there is not a single one who is confident of defeating Old Lei. The Principal has given that candidate a huge challenge!" "Haha!" The emperor felt much more at ease as he joked with the old headmaster.

"This old official's opinion is inconsistent with His Majesty's. This old official favors the candidate!" The old Headmaster was still unperturbed. He did not seem to be aware of the jokes being joked about. Instead, he looked like he was in serious negotiations.

"Oh? Could it be that this person was blessed by the heavens and possessed extraordinary talent? "To be able to match up to a famous general at such a young age, I don't really believe it. How would the old headmaster dare to make a bet with me?" The king was startled when he heard the dean's words. It was as if he had heard something unbelievable. Only after a long while did he come back to his senses and asked in surprise.

"This old official fears that His Majesty will lose too badly. At that time, the one who will be in trouble will be this old official himself!" The old headmaster bowed to the emperor and refused.

"You old fox, it can't be that you're afraid of losing, right?" The Emperor said to Huangfu Wuji excitedly.

"This ?" Since Your Majesty wishes to gamble, this old official will accompany you. But what about the wager? " Dean Huangfu hesitated for a moment, then pretended to be helpless and said.

In fact, the dean had been waiting for the emperor to do this. First, he played a trick called 'Restraint by Wannabe', successfully trapping the emperor within it. 'Like this, even if the emperor wants to go back on his words, he can't.' The bet was put forward by the president himself, so even if he lost, the emperor had to bear the consequences himself.

"I know you are a pauper, but I won't lie to you. If I win, bring that candidate to me immediately!" The king saw that the dean had agreed to the bet so he became straightforward. He didn't ask for those vulgar silvery-white objects, but asked for the candidate by name instead.

Even though he was the ruler of a country, this was the first time he had heard of such an outstanding talent. If he didn't meet this person once, then he would feel indescribably regretful.

"What if I win?" The dean nodded his head in agreement to the bet before turning to the emperor for an explanation.

"As you wish!" His majesty the Emperor waved his hand and readily agreed to any request the Emperor made, because his majesty knew that Lei Sheng's reputation was not for nothing, that was because he had relied on his own strength over the years to earn a reputation, that was not for show. He did not think highly of his reputation, and what he was fighting against was just a little kid worth nurturing, although he was talented, but he lacked a lot of experience and experience, and these were things that could not be compensated with talent and intelligence.

"Then, if this old official wins, I would like to request that Your Majesty not to meet with that candidate for the time being!" Dean Huangfu's face suddenly turned serious, as though he was begging the Emperor.

"Why is that?" His Majesty was puzzled, but he did not oppose the bet proposed by the dean.

"It can be considered a form of protection for him!" And I also have another arrangement with him, which is a secret of the Surveillance Council. He won't appear in everyone's line of sight for a short period of time! " The dean softly sighed before slowly opening his mouth to explain.

"Then when can This Emperor see him?" He felt that the possibility of the dean's words being true. If he were to summon an unfamiliar person, even if he could hide it well, he could not guarantee that he would not be exposed in front of others. However, the emperor was still unwilling to give up. Such an outstanding person, yet he was the only one to be seen. This was a bit too much for a curious emperor.

"When he becomes young, this old official will naturally arrange for him to meet His Majesty. At that time, His Majesty will personally appoint him as the next President of the Council!" The dean pondered for a moment before speaking to the emperor.

"Alright, it's a deal!" The emperor stood up with a clap of his hands and answered loudly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The dean bowed in thanks.

? ?.

Zhan Zhixin helplessly shook his head and left the tent. He knew that he would need to drink this wine till late into the night no matter what, otherwise, with Lei Sheng's temper, if he didn't drink wine properly, he would definitely curse out loud.

In any case, the people from the Chief Elder would be arriving at noon tomorrow at the fastest time, so he would have to relax during this period of time. After all, there might be a contest tomorrow.

Zhan Zhixin gazed far into the distance, and at the same time, placed his hands on his chest, where the President had sent an urgent secret letter not long ago. With regards to the duel that had already been decided, Zhan Zhixin still couldn't understand it. He didn't understand why the Principal wanted him to do this, but he still followed the Principal's orders due to his trust in him.

In Zhan Zhixin's opinion, even if half of the Five Great Generals came, they might not necessarily win? But how could an unknown person have the qualifications to compete with Lei Sheng, who was comparable to a famous general?

Zhan Zhixin no longer held any hope for the person who was about to arrive. It was as if he could already foresee the humiliation and dejection that the person would have after his defeat. Could it be that people who felt that they had some talent would be able to be arrogant and claim themselves to be the best in the world? However, would such a person still be able to get up after falling down in front of everyone's eyes?

Zhan Zhixin shook his head, trying to forget about all these matters. He had already taken care of all the matters assigned to him by the Principal, so he did not need to consider the remaining matters, furthermore, it was an extremely unequal competition, there was no need to spend time and effort thinking about it. Right now, what he needed to think about was how to proceed northwards, that was the true purpose of their visit.

"Silver, silver, where are you?" Zhan Zhixin said as he gave a bitter sigh.

"Deputy, why aren't you going in to drink and sigh?" Suddenly, a voice came out from behind Zhan Zhixin.

"Oh, it's Yi-Yang. Why did you come out too?" Aren't you afraid of going berserk? " Zhan Zhixin turned his head and realized that the person who just arrived was Zhao Yiyang, and so he smiled at him and said.

"It's not like I don't know where the exhibition is. What alcohol capacity do I have? Aren't you afraid that I won't be able to get out of bed tomorrow?" Zhao Yiyang acted like he was in a difficult situation, and asked Zhan Zhixin in a wronged manner.

"Haha, you're getting crazier and crazier by the minute. You can drink, but you always pretend to be drunk. Just by thinking about it, I can tell that you've lost a lot of face for us!" Zhan Zhixin laughed and replied sarcastically.

"Don't just talk about me, I can't even match the cunning side of the exhibition. Even Lei Fa has been used as a gun under your coquettish words. Who could be more crafty than you?" Zhao Yiyang smiled mysteriously at Zhan Zhixin as he asked about the next topic.

"Hmph, I was just saying that to you guys. Do you really think Lei Fa is only 250 years old? That's smart! Do you think that those who can become famous generals will show such a silly side to you? Tell you that it's all an illusion! Whoever thought that he was a straightforward man would be doomed! His treachery is not something you can imagine! Furthermore, many of these methods have been remembered by the generals of various countries to this day. They would rather face hundreds of thousands of soldiers than face off against Lei Yu! " Zhan Zhixin gave a light "hmph" as he lightly explained.

"Fine, I'll just pretend I didn't say anything. But I also have something to report. I just came back this morning, so I haven't had the chance to tell you about it!" Hearing Zhan Zhixin's explanation, Zhao Yiyang realized what was going on. Could it be that the person inside was planning to act like a pig and eat the tiger? He didn't even notice it. But all of these were not the reason for Zhao Yiyang to suddenly come out from the tent.

"What is it?" Zhan Zhixin asked in confusion.

"Do you know why I came back so late?" Zhao Yiyang did not directly answer, but asked the other party a question instead.

"What happened?" Zhan Zhixin had a keen and unique sense of smell for intelligence, he immediately recognized something from Zhao Yiyang's words, and anxiously asked.

Many things were discovered from very minute details, and from there, it revealed the source of all these things. And Zhan Zhixin had this kind of Inherent Skill, he was able to keenly discover some information that others couldn't easily discover.

Just like now, when Zhao Yiyang had almost only started, he could already tell that something was different from it. He had a feeling that this matter might be the breakthrough point of something, but what exactly was behind it? He couldn't imagine it yet.

"Perhaps this matter is not as simple as it looks!" This was the lamentation in Zhan Zhixin's heart, and was also the reason why he was at a loss for a long time. He had a faint feeling that there was some kind of unspeakable secret behind this matter.
