On the other side, Ye Feng and his party of three have arrived near Yanjiao and are about to arrive in Beijing.
Hua Guodong followed beside him, feeling as if he was triumphant and happy in the spring breeze.
This is not only because he fulfilled his wish, took the Foundation Establishment Pill, and his strength has surpassed that of ordinary people. When he returned to Yanjing, he was not envious of them in the circle of dandies? He could even challenge the status of the eldest sister.
What's more important is that Master Ye Feng's trip has made great contributions to Daxia.
One man and one horse, fighting in the Southern Territory, forcing the thirteen southern kingdoms to surrender, restarting the Protectorate system that had been idle for thousands of years, and completely controlling the Southern Territory, as if dreaming back to the Han and Tang Dynasties.
"Master, what reward will the court give you after you return?" Hua Guodong was very curious about this.
In his view, the First Battle in the Southern Territory was no less significant than the previous Nanyang Naval Battle. Although it failed to expand the territory, it played a key role in controlling the entire Southern Territory.
If all of Nanyang had fallen into the hands of Daxia before, then now the Southern Territory, after signing the Treaty of Siam and establishing the Protectorate, is equivalent to being indirectly controlled by Daxia, which is of great significance!
"In the previous battle in Nanyang, Master, your official rank reached the second rank and you were promoted to the governor of one side." Hua Guodong reasoned in his mind, "I wonder if the just-concluded trip to the Southern Territory can let Master, your official rank, be promoted to another rank?"
Living in the first rank, ranking among the three nobles?"
Less than thirty years old, with a first-class official position!
If Ye Feng could do it, it would be an unprecedented first.
"Oh, Master, I'm really worried. If you continue to fight in the south and north, if you continue to fight like this, if you do it a few more times, I'm afraid you will become an extremely powerful minister and have no title."
Hua Guodong had already begun to worry about his master and even the court in advance.
After all, Ye Feng is now an official and a resident, a level that is difficult for ordinary people to touch.
If we get promoted to the first level again this time, what about next time? What about next time?
"It's so cold at high places!" Ye Feng sighed after hearing this.
Because he thought of the old master, who was once a very popular minister, but now he is also behind bars, in Prison Zero?
"Master!?" Seeing Ye Feng's rare pessimism, Hua Guodong couldn't help but be shocked.
He also suddenly realized that in the past dynasties, few ministers who had passed their peak could die a good death.
"Then why don't we retreat bravely?" Hua Guodong murmured to himself, "or wait for a few years of silence."
The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn’t stop!
When you are in the court, you can't help yourself. How can you just retreat if you want?
The mission that Ye Feng is currently shouldering does not allow him to back down in the slightest.
If Ye Feng recedes, Nanyang may be in trouble again.
If Ye Feng retreats, the Protectorate of the Southern Territory may also be stranded.
If Ye Feng retreats, where will Yongzhou's 300,000 troops go?
"The title of Marquis is not my intention, but I hope the sea will be peaceful!" Ye Feng said seriously, "I, Ye Feng, have acted with integrity throughout my life, and I am worthy of the people of the country!"
"Even if it is extremely cold at high places, let the storm come more violently. Why should I, Ye Feng, be afraid of it?"
While chatting, Ye Feng and his party were about to arrive in Yanjing.
Suddenly, an Audi car drove towards me at lightning speed.
Blocked the way of three people.
"Eh? This car looks familiar?" Hua Guodong took a closer look. Isn't this the car of the eldest daughter of the Zhao family?
Ye Feng was no stranger to this car, because on the day he was released from prison, he took this car back to Yanjing.
I just didn’t expect that today, when I see this car and this person, everything is different!
As soon as the car door opened, it was indeed Zhao Wanting, who walked out of the car covered in dust.
Then he stopped in front of him and said loudly: "Mr. Ye, you can't go back to Yanjing. Once you go back, I'm afraid..."
