"Yes." Jin Tianwei nodded: "You have offended Gui Jianchou. According to my understanding of him, he will definitely come to you for revenge... If you don't want this expression, I will arrange experts to protect you. As long as Gui Jianchou
As soon as Chou shows up, the masters I arranged will deal with him."
"Ghosts are very sad." Ma Xiaoyao couldn't help but say.
"I know he is powerful, but I am sure to deal with him, provided he shows up." Jin Tianwei said confidently.
Ma Xiaoyao breathed out: "Do I have the right to refuse?"
"Yes." Jin Tianwei nodded: "You can refuse, but... I will be very angry and maybe chop off your head."
"You are so domineering." Ma Xiaoyao shook his head helplessly.
"I just said that this is a deal. Since it is a deal, there will naturally be benefits." Jin Tianwei said with a smile: "As long as you agree to cooperate with me, I will guarantee your prosperity and wealth. How about it?"
"What can I do? You are the emperor, and you are already talking nonsense. Do I dare to disagree?" Ma Xiaoyao sighed.
"Haha... I knew you would agree." Jin Tianwei smiled and said: "From now on, you will be the commander-in-chief of the White Tiger Banner."
"Ah?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned: "Commander? You want me to be the commander? Are you kidding me?"
"You are not joking!" Jin Tianwei said seriously: "What I said is the imperial edict, and it will never be changed."
"But I'm only a fifth-level warrior, and I'm not qualified to be a commander-in-chief at all."
"This is called doing something special! Although you are not well-educated enough, you are very clever and can be more than enough to be a commander-in-chief."
"I'm afraid the people below won't obey me?"
"You are the commander-in-chief whom I have personally conferred. Who dares to disobey you? With my support, you can do things boldly and confidently. If anyone dares to cause trouble for you, I will deal with him."
Jin Tianwei has already said this, and if Ma Xiaoyao refuses again, it will seem a bit disrespectful.
Thinking about it carefully, Ma Xiaoyao still made a profit. Even without Jin Tianwei's support, he would still fight against Gui Jianchou. Now with Jin Tianwei's support, Ma Xiaoyao has more confidence, and now he has a general soldier.
, hold the power, and no longer have to look at people's faces to live their lives... No matter how you want to make money, this is definitely a very cost-effective deal.
"Do you have any other questions?" Jin Tianwei asked with a smile.
"Well, I am still a wanted criminal... Han Mingguang wanted me..."
"It's easy. I'll ask the Ministry of Criminal Justice to cancel your status as a wanted criminal later."
"I still have a small condition, I hope the emperor can agree to it."
"Tell me."
"I want the lives of Han Mingguang's family, and I ask the emperor to grant my wish."
"Do you really hate Han Mingguang that much?" Jin Tianwei frowned.
"Yes." Ma Xiaoyao nodded vigorously: "He and I have a sworn hatred! And Han Mingguang's uncle Li Ming is also my biggest enemy!"
Jin Tianwei pondered for a moment and said: "I just spared Han Mingguang, and if I kill him now, doesn't it appear that I am not true to my word? It undermines my dignity."
"But..." Ma Xiaoyao was interrupted by Jin Tianwei just as he was about to speak.
"Let's do it." Jin Tianwei waved his hand: "Just be patient for a few more days. After the ghosts are gone, I will hand over Han Mingguang's family to you. You can do whatever you want to do with it. I will never stop you.
,how?"
Ma Xiaoyao understood clearly that Jin Tianwei was beating him. If he wanted to kill Han Mingguang's family, he had to help him obediently. As long as Ma Xiaoyao could successfully induce Gui Jianchou, then Jin Tianwei would help him kill Han Mingguang.
The Mingguang family is worthy of being an emperor, and they have many tricks.
First, he used high-ranking officials and generous salaries to win over Ma Xiaoyao, and then used the heads of Han Mingguang's family to beat Ma Xiaoyao, leaving Ma Xiaoyao with no ability to resist.
This is the art of the emperor.
Ma Xiaoyao nodded: "Okay, I understand, I will work hard and try to attract ghosts to worry as soon as possible."
"Okay, you go down and rest. Tomorrow you will go to Baihu Banner to take up the post. Don't worry, I will send a few masters to protect you secretly. They are all masters second only to me. They are more than enough to deal with Gui Jianchou, who has lost his strength.
"After the matter was settled, Jin Tianwei directly issued an expulsion order. It is rare for a dignified emperor to chat with Ma Xiaoyao for so long. That means Ma Xiaoyao is of great use, otherwise Jin Tianwei would not pay attention to a small person like Ma Xiaoyao.
.
"My subordinates excuse themselves." At this moment, Ma Xiaoyao had entered the role, clasped his hands in his fists, saluted Jin Tianwei, and then turned around and left.
…
"This Ma Xiaoyao is quite interesting." Jin Tianwei nodded secretly.
"Your Majesty." Eunuch Liu came in from outside: "I asked Ma Xiaoyao to rest in the side hall, and sent two maids to wait on him."
"Well, it was done well." Jin Tianwei praised.
Eunuch Liu raised his head and glanced at Jin Tianwei with a somewhat hesitant expression: "Your Majesty, I have something I don't know whether to say or not..."
"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't hesitate."
"Your Majesty, I don't think... you need to be so nice to Ma Xiaoyao."
"What do you mean? Please explain clearly."
"You can just give me some benefits. There is no need to make Ma Xiaoyao the commander-in-chief..."
"You are short-sighted, Liu Zhijing, let me tell you, if you want someone to sincerely work for you, you must be more generous. The title of a mere general soldier can be exchanged for a loyal slave. This account is a good deal.
.”
"But……"
"Okay, stop talking. I have already decided this matter, so please stop talking."
"……yes."
"By decree, I will go to Concubine Hua's place to rest tonight."
"Yes, I will go and deliver the order right now." After being scolded by Jin Tianwei for a few words, Eunuch Liu did not dare to say any more and went out to deliver the order honestly.
"This Liu Zhijing is really short-sighted." Jin Tianwei shook his head in disappointment: "It's not of much use." Poor Eunuch Liu, because he said a few more words, aroused Jin Tianwei's disgust, and I'm afraid his life will not be easy in the future.
If Eunuch Liu were to know what Jin Tianwei was thinking, he would probably hit the wall with regrets, speak weakly, and love to get into trouble.
…
The next day, Ma Xiaoyao rode in a luxurious carriage and led a group of golden-armored guards to leave the imperial city with great fanfare.
At the same time, several men in black also left the imperial city. They were the masters sent by Jin Tianwei. Their main duty was to deal with ghosts and sorrows. In order not to alert others, these masters hid in the dark and followed Ma Xiaoyao from a distance.
, as long as the ghosts don’t show up, they won’t show up either.
after one day.
Ma Xiaoyao's motorcade arrived at Baihu City.
"Crunch!"
The carriage suddenly stopped.
"What's going on? Why can't you stop?" Ma Xiaoyao's majestic voice came from the carriage.
"My lord, there is someone blocking the way." A guard replied respectfully.
"Blocking the road? Who is so bold? How dare you block my way!" Ma Xiaoyao opened the car door and walked out. If he were in the Imperial City, Ma Xiaoyao would definitely not say that, because there are many dignitaries in the Imperial City, so casually
Pulling out any one of them can make Ma Xiaoyao fearful, but in White Tiger City, Ma Xiaoyao doesn't have so many worries. He is now the commander-in-chief of the White Tiger Banner and the highest commander of White Tiger City. In White Tiger City, he is the Tu Emperor and no one needs him.
care.
Ma Xiaoyao originally wanted to show off his power, but after seeing clearly the crowd blocking the road, his expression immediately softened. There was a group of people standing at the city gate, and the leader was none other than the ten thousand captains of the White Tiger Banner.
"I respectfully welcome the Commander-in-Chief!" Ten thousand captains saluted with fists clasped at the same time.
Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand: "No need to be polite."
"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief!" The ten thousand captains thanked them and then stood up straight.
Ma Xiaoyao glanced at it. Among the ten thousand captains, he only knew Ding Xiong. The other nine were very unfamiliar... But it didn't matter. There would be plenty of time to get to know each other in the future. Ma Xiaoyao felt very comfortable at the moment. Once upon a time, he was just a little boy.
As a centurion, he had to look at the faces of these captains every day, but now it is reversed, and ten thousand captains have become his subordinates...
It feels so good to be the master!
"Your Majesty, Commander-in-Chief, we have prepared a banquet for you, and we would like to invite you to show your respect." Captain Ding Xiong stepped forward and said.
"Well, I'm really hungry. You guys can lead the way." Ma Xiaoyao nodded.
In this way, Ma Xiaoyao, accompanied by ten ten thousand captains, arrived at the General Military Mansion, and then entered the front hall. There was a solid wooden round table in the hall, with a variety of dishes on it.
"Sir, let me toast you!" Captain Ding Xiong stood up holding the wine glass.
"We also respect you, sir!" The other nine captains of ten thousand also stood up.
"Sit down, everyone!" Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand: "I don't have many rules. If you drink, just drink. You don't have to stand up. Just sit down for me."
"Thank you, Sir!" Ma Xiaoyao is now the commander-in-chief. Everyone must listen to what he says. Just like that, the ten thousand captains sat down again, but they still held the wine glasses.
"I'll do it first as a courtesy!" Ma Xiaoyao didn't show any pretense, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"My lord, you have such a good drinker!" The Ten Thousand Captains flattered him and poured the wine into his mouth.
As soon as Ma Xiaoyao put down his wine glass, someone stood up and poured him wine. Ma Xiaoyao glanced at everyone present: "I'm new here and I'm very unfamiliar with you. I don't even know your names. Taking advantage of this opportunity
If the occasion arises, how about you introduce yourselves and let me get familiar with you?"
"My name is Ding Xiong, and I am fifty-three years old."
"My name is Wu Haibiao, and I am fifty years old."
…
The ten thousand captains were introduced one by one according to their age, and Ma Xiaoyao memorized the names of all ten people.
Originally, Ma Xiaoyao thought that these ten people would show off to him. After all, Ma Xiaoyao was only a fifth-level warrior, the same level as these ten thousand captains. According to common sense, these ten thousand captains should reject Ma Xiaoyao, but when they met today
, but these ten people behaved very respectfully, making Ma Xiaoyao unable to find any fault at all. This made Ma Xiaoyao very puzzled, and at the same time, he secretly became vigilant, thinking that if something abnormal happened, it must be a monster.
