Chapter 969: Chapter 538: Liangzhou Concludes! Return to the Capital!

Knowing that Chen Yuan was going to leave, Feng Jiuying’s heart inevitably showed a hint of joy. After all, as long as Chen Yuan left, the position of Golden Envoy in Liangzhou would be his.

Isn’t that exactly what he was striving for?

Back then, for this position, he fought fiercely with Huangfu Qi, and the commotion even reached the Capital, which led to Chen Yuan’s direct appointment.

But besides the joy, Feng Jiuying also felt some melancholy.

After experiencing several large battles at Sword Sect Pass and Liangzhou City, Feng Jiuying had already gone from outward obedience to heartfelt admiration, thinking that serving under such a person seemed quite good.

Moreover, what he accomplished was also worthy of admiration!

In short, his current mood was very complicated.

Quite conflicted.

“The transfer order from the Capital hasn’t arrived yet, but it should be soon.” Chen Yuan didn’t hide anything, as he would inevitably be transferred, telling Feng Jiuying in advance was no big deal.

“Then I congratulate Sir on your promotion.”

Feng Jiuying quickly congratulated, with a smile on his face.

“After I leave, the Heavenly Patrol Bureau will be completely handed over to you. After the previous battles, what the Bureau needs is recuperation, not large-scale operations.”

“I understand, Sir, rest assured.”

“Hmm, you did well during this period; I won’t interfere much, just make sure things are done well later on.” As he was about to leave, Chen Yuan didn’t want to interfere with the Bureau’s matters anymore.

As long as Feng Jiuying handled it well.

With that time, he’d rather spend more on cultivating.

Breaking through Yang Transformation is not the pinnacle; it is just the beginning in this Realm. Chen Yuan would not be blinded by joy; on the contrary, he was more lucid, knowing what he wanted and what he intended to do.

“Yes, I will definitely handle it.”

“It’s getting late, you may leave.”

“I take my leave…”

Feng Jiuying hesitated, he had thought of becoming a fellow friend with Chen Yuan, offering Chen Yuan a beautiful concubine to welcome him. But seeing his demeanor, it was obvious he wouldn’t accept.

So he had to give up, bowed, and left.

Perhaps, the rumors may not be true.

Master Chen might not be interested in women.

Watching Feng Jiuying’s departing figure, Chen Yuan stretched his body. After breaking through at Wudang Mountain, he had been stabilizing his Cultivation and hadn’t had a good sleep.

Now, he could finally rest assured.

That night, Chen Yuan had an exceedingly rare complete sleep, gradually shedding all his exhaustion.

The next day.

Chen Yuan gently woke from his slumber, pondered for a moment in bed, then slowly got up to wash, and had breakfast at the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, finishing just as…

Wei Wuque arrived at the Bureau, and when nobody was around, he stated his purpose.

He said that his father had entrusted him with the matter of warhorses and that he was also willing to provide Chen Yuan with a batch of elite Beiliang Army soldiers to help train his troops.

After listening, Chen Yuan gave Wei Wuque a deep look, having already guessed Wei Jinfeng’s intention.

This was an attempt to establish an alliance with him, albeit weak, but definitely close, with Wei Wuque being the intermediary.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Yuan nodded in agreement, expressing his gratitude to Wei Wuque.

The conversation was pleasant, and they had a cordial and friendly discussion about the issue of Beiliang’s exotic warhorses. Chen Yuan pointed out that the first batch of exotic warhorses should bypass Central State, to avoid being discovered by the court.

Wei Wuque understood this as well.

It was not feasible to send tens of thousands of exotic warhorses to Tangshan all at once; it would be too conspicuous and easily detected, so they could only be sent in batches of several thousand to Tangshan.

And they would be disguised with ordinary horses, taking the small roads of Bing State, bypassing Central State, and entering Qingzhou from the Yang Province region.

Beiliang’s warhorses were not consistently honest either; they were also distributed to various locations in the Central Plains, with the Southern Border being the largest gathering point, not easily detected.

The two discussed in detail, filling in the gaps.

Meanwhile, Chen Yuan informed Jiang He about this last night, asking him to send trusted aides to Tangshan to inform Lady Xu to prepare for receiving Beiliang’s warhorses.

While he was at the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, Wei Wuque invited Chen Yuan to dine at the Prince Mansion. His father had already left Liangzhou City, stationed at Sword Sect Pass to train the troops.

He himself was also bored.

Chen Yuan thought for a moment and agreed, asking Huangfu Qi’s family to come in the afternoon, while he went to taste Xin the Food God’s culinary skills; his creations were indeed flavorful.

Having tasted it once, he wanted to eat it again, and the rumored secret culinary skills were indeed well-deserved.

Chen Yuan spent half a day at the Beiliang Royal Mansion, chatted with Wei Wuque and Food God Xin Jifei for a while, drank some of the good tea poured by King Liang, and bid farewell.

When he returned to the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, Huangfu Qi’s family had already been waiting for a while.

Now that Huangfu Qi was dead, their family no longer had a major support, they naturally didn’t dare oppose the rumored Chen the Golden Envoy, but not many people came, just a woman.

“You are… what is your relation to Envoy Huangfu?”

Chen Yuan looked up and down at the white-clothed woman in front of him.

Her appearance was definitely above average, her figure graceful, somewhat charming, and she wore mourning clothes, evoking a sense of pity. It was unclear whether she was Huangfu Qi’s concubine.

But logically, since he personally summoned, it was unlikely for the Huangfu Family to only send an insignificant concubine.

She didn’t seem like the main wife either; her age wasn’t quite old.

In this era, though concubines were allowed, there were still some rules, at least the main wife couldn’t be easily dismissed or accepted, and while Chen Yuan was deep in thought, the woman opposite timidly saluted and softly spoke:
