Chapter 2097: The Brother Who Doesn’t Play by the Rules
He Yue had a pretty face when he was a child, and as he grew older he looked more and more like He Chunhua, and his eyebrow contours were also 30% like He Xiao.
"He did. When we were drinking, he told me about your past fun stories! The bond between you two brothers is really enviable." Fu Shanyue laughed, "He also told me that you have a very beautiful garden in your hometown in Blackwater City, and that the Aquarius Gate with a green frame is your father's masterpiece."
"Green frame?" He Yue frowned. "The Aquarius Gate is not specially painted. The wall next to it is painted white. The frame of the Aquarius Gate is also white. The paint is made from the white ground stone near Blackwater City."
Fu Shanyue smiled and said, "Oh, really? I must have remembered it wrongly."
He Yue smiled back, knowing that the other party must be testing him.
He simply added a few words: "The old plum blossoms in the garden stick out from the top of the wall, just like being inserted in a vase, which was originally very interesting. But the family changed to an uninformed gardener, who cut off the old plum branches with just two cuts, and my father was so angry that he couldn't eat for several days."
Fu Shanyue had naturally heard this before, but he echoed it verbally: "What a pity. By the way, why are you called He Yue, and your brother is called He Lingchuan?"
"My brother's original name was He Xiao, but the Great Shaman of Zhaomandu told my father that he should change his name to 'Lingchuan' so that he would have good fortune throughout his life." He Yue explained, "My father has always respected the Great Shaman, so he changed my brother's name."
"I see." Fu Shanyue asked casually, "Then where is this great shaman?"
"He left Blackwater City a few years ago and traveled around the world. His whereabouts have been unknown since then. My father also sent people to look for him, but to no avail." He Yue shook his head. "The Great Shaman came and went without a fixed time and was unpredictable. When I was a child, I thought he was an immortal."
He Yue got all these details that were difficult for outsiders to know right, and Fu Shanyue turned around and raised his hand, "Come, please sit down! Taozi, have some tea."
Then a delicate little girl came over with a teacup and served He Yue a cup of hot tea.
Fu Shanyue looked at him with a smile.
If this kid doesn't answer one question correctly, he won't be able to sit here and drink tea leisurely.
"Thank you!" Seeing Fu Shanyue's gentle expression and his familiar appearance, He Yue was relieved. "How come Your Highness knows my brother?"
Fu Shanyue knocked on the table and motioned Taozi to pour him a cup of tea: "Don't you know what your brother did in Beijia?"
"He never mentioned it on his own initiative." The last time my brother came home, he never mentioned that he had been to Bega!
"It can be said that there is no acquaintance without fighting. The first time your brother showed up, he was trying to steal something from me."
“…” It sounds like something that big brother would do.
"I failed to defeat him several times, so I just shook hands with him and made peace."
"I see." Dragons mate with dragons, phoenixes mate with phoenixes, and mice mate with friends who dig holes. This Prince Chiyan didn't seem to be a good person either.
"Later, a major case occurred in Chiyan State. I appointed your brother to conduct a detailed investigation. As a result, the investigation led all the way to Lingxu City. It turned out that the mastermind behind the scenes was Qingyang State Master. Tsk!"
Fu Shanyue's few casual words made He Yue's heart tremble. He followed He Chunhua and had been in the officialdom before, so he could immediately understand the hidden meaning behind these words.
Big brother’s situation back then must have been very dangerous, right?
Besides, doesn’t Prince Chiyan have his own men? Why did he appoint my brother, an outsider, to investigate the case?
That means this task is not easy and the people of Chiyan Kingdom cannot do it.
"This process must be very dangerous, right?"
"Of course. But the more dangerous things are still to come." Fu Shanyue tilted his head to look at him, "Do you know what other great things your brother has done in the Heavenly Palace?"
He Yue's neck was a little stiff, but he could only shake his head.
"Do you know what he did in Shining Gold?"
"Shen State is too far away from Shanjin, and news transmission is slow. I only know that my brother calls himself the Great Emperor Jiuyou, and it seems that he has just established a country."
"That's right." Fu Shanyue smiled and didn't say anything else. He just changed the subject, "Are you here on behalf of the Shen Kingdom?"
"Yes, my father was overjoyed when he received the news about my brother, so he ordered me to lead a team to visit him." He Yue asked, "Your Highness, is my brother in the new capital?"
Since the Yangshan Islands were taken away by Chiyan, he could only go to the Shining Gold Plains to find his elder brother.
Fu Shanyue took a sip of tea and said, "He led his troops out to fight."
"..." He Yue was surprised, "Hasn't the Golden Plains been merged?"
My brother has just founded the country. How long has it been stable? Now the war has started again?
"The big battle within the plains is over, but there is still battle outside the plains." Fu Shanyue stood up, walked to the edge of the sand table and waved his hand. A map of the west side of the Shining Gold Plains began to appear on the sand table, and even the Yangshan Islands.
Fu Shanyue pointed to the Yangshan Islands and said, "We are here."
Then, he moved his finger northeastward, all the way to the peninsula: "Your brother's army is attacking here now."
"Ya Country?!" He Yue was surprised. "I remember that this country is strong in military power. How could my brother... could it be that they took advantage of the situation and attacked the newly established Cangyan Country?"
Before he went to sea, he made up for his studies and had a general understanding of the national conditions and trends of Shanjin and its surrounding areas. Ya State was a regional power, famous for its ability to conquer and fight, and it was said that even Mou State did not dare to look down on it.
Cangyan Kingdom was established only a few months ago? With an unstable foundation, shouldn't the king work hard to consolidate his rule? It was hard for him to imagine that his brother would take the initiative to attack Ya Kingdom.
Fu Shanyue moved his finger upwards and pointed to another area: "This place is called 'Bailie'. The Ya Kingdom often plunders the surrounding areas. This time they went to Bailie to rob. As a result, the third prince of the Ya Kingdom was shot and killed by the Bailie people. The king of the Ya Kingdom was furious and sent troops to attack Bailie. So, your brother led the troops to support Bailie."
"He has such a good relationship with Bailie?" Sending troops right after the country was founded, does Big Brother really not consider the difficulty?
"Good relationship?" Fu Shanyue laughed twice. "These islands under your feet originally belonged to Bailie. At that time, they were islands surrounded by evil spirits and no living creatures were allowed to live. Later, Lord Bailie sold them to your brother for a few tens of thousands of taels. That's how the prosperous Yangshan Channel came into being! But Lord Bailie got jealous when he saw your brother making this place bigger and stronger, and he tried to tear up the contract and take it back by force several times."
"..." He Yue was confused, "Then my brother is still willing to help them fight?"
His elder brother is definitely not a fool. There must be a reasonable reason for doing this, right?
"I'm not sure either. But I think He Xiao went to seek revenge." Fu Shanyue did not keep the secret, "When he led his elite troops to encircle and suppress Yao Kingdom, Ya Kingdom invaded the western front of Shanjin on a large scale. The local soldiers and civilians fought back and suffered heavy casualties. Although Ya Kingdom withdrew its troops later, they spread the word that the Dragon God Army was weak and could be bullied. One Ya soldier could beat seven Dragon God soldiers."
