Chapter 151: He Doesn’t Want Him, I Want Him
Qi Baijun then looked at Chen Yiwei and asked, "Why are you here? Is there anything important to report?"
Chen Yiwei nodded at him, and said, "Just now, one of our spies sent a news. Xiao Shao is currently heading towards Lin Zi City. The last time the spy saw him, he was four hundred li away from here."
Qi Baijun listened to his report, thinking silently. After a while, he looked at Chen Yiwei and asked, "Is he here to provide support for Yao Zhen?"
Chen Yiwei shook his head and said, "It shouldn’t be. The last time I received news from our spy about Xiao Shao was three months ago. At that time, the spy made it clear that Zhao Jue charged Xiao Shao with treason in order to regain military power and deal with his political enemies. But because of the Empress Dowager, Zhao Jue was unable to kill the Xiao family, so he could only exile them to the northern border."
"So... Xiao Shao came to this city because he has been in exile from the Shang Empire." Qi Baijun said slowly.
Chen Yiwei nodded, and said, "This is most likely the reason. Besides, the spies didn’t see him leading his Night Army."
After listening to Chen Yiwei’s words, Qi Baijun said, "As long as Xiao Shao’s Night Army is not here, no one can match my Black Qilin Army."
After speaking, Qi Baijun lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought. While he was thinking, Chen Yiwei looked at the sky and thought: ’I don’t know how Zhao Jue’s brain works. He would rather kill his loyal ministers and exile the God of War of the Shang Empire, than use them. Zhao Jue’s brain must have filled with water, and a talented general was wasted just like this.’
Three minutes later, Chen Yiwei heard Qi Baijun say, "This is a good opportunity for us."
