Chapter 182 Struggle for Power
Xu Guangling looked at Su Yanqing playfully.

"I heard that my husband and this person seemed to be having a romantic affair. Could it be that they are still thinking about their old relationship?"

Su Yanqing looked unhappy for a while, and he said coldly: "It's not that I don't want to kill her, it's just that I can't do it myself."

Xu Guangling paused, then left with a smile.

Shu Yan returned to his yard. The climate in Taizhou was very hot and humid. Although it was already night, the air was still filled with heat.

As soon as she entered, she saw Chen Yunzhong and Cheng San, who were only wearing bellybands. The two young men were also wearing only underpants.

Cheng San smiled immediately when he saw his godmother.

"My godmother came back at the right time. My cousin said the ice would be here soon."

Shu Yan was stunned when he heard this. He was actually able to get ice in such a remote place. This guy is quite powerful.

Shu Yan was so hot that she went back to the house and took a shower. As soon as she came out, she saw a person who looked like a hill appearing in front of her.

Zhang Shengzi, whom they had not seen for a long time, appeared in front of everyone, carrying a huge piece of ice on his back.

Zhang Shengzi placed the huge ice cube on the ground. The ice cube gave off bursts of cold air. Cheng San quickly lay down on the ice cube and let out a satisfied sigh.

"Brother, it's really timely."

Zhang Shengzi ignored Cheng San and walked to Shu Yan, whispering: "Godmother, the general can't come tonight."

Shu Yan was stunned. She came here to see Wang Longyun, but Wang Longyun couldn't come.

"why?"

Zhang Shengzi coughed lightly.

"There is a rebellion in Yunshan Village in the south, and the general has led his troops to quell the rebellion."

Shu Yan was stunned for a moment. The disheveled Chen Yunzhong hurriedly barged in, only to see him say: "Yunshan Village? Is that the very good-looking village owner?"

Zhang Shengzi smiled slightly and looked at Shu Yan meaningfully.

"Look at what I'm doing, I don't know the leader of Yunshan Village."

Of course, Shu Yan didn't know. Let alone Yunshan Village, she didn't even know what the situation was in the southwest.

Zhang Shengzi coughed twice.

"Tomorrow I will take my godmother to Yunshan Village. You are still an elder, so you still have to make the decision on some things."

Shu Yan sighed helplessly.

I originally thought I could rest for a few days, but now it seems that there will be no peaceful days anyway.

But she didn't come here to have a peaceful life.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhang Shengzi found a small donkey and asked Shu Yan to sit on it. He rode a tall horse, which made Shu Yan a little uncomfortable.

"Could it be that the owner of the village doesn't want me to ride a horse, so he insists on having a little donkey?"

Zhang Shengzi said helplessly: "My godmother will know when we get on the road."

After Shu Yan entered Yunshan Mountain, she realized why Zhang Shengzi asked her to ride a donkey. She had been running all the way, traveling through all the rugged mountain roads from north to south.

But I have never walked such a difficult road as Yunshan.

The road was filled with clouds and mist, miasma was everywhere, and there was no road at all. Shu Yan really couldn't believe that someone would build a cottage here.

There will be no caravans coming here at all.

Shu Yan walked all the way, and his exposed skin was bitten by mosquitoes countless times.

The two of them walked until midnight before arriving at an abandoned inn to rest.

Shu Yan couldn't help but suspect that this boy wanted to murder him, but Zhang Shengzi said: "Taizhou is not safe, and Su Yanqing's people want to do harm to my godmother, so I had to use the excuse of the general's marriage to take you out. "Shu Yan was stunned for a moment. She never thought that Su Yanqing was really going to do something to her.

Zhang Shengzi frowned when he saw Shu Yan's expression. He said in a low voice: "Goddess, the struggle for power is very cruel. In ancient times, the transfer of power between emperors always resulted in death, and father and son often killed each other. What do you want? Be mentally prepared.”

Shu Yan didn't expect Zhang Shengzi to say such things to him.

Shu Yan said softly: "I just feel that we haven't succeeded yet, but we have already started fighting each other."

Zhang Shengzi looked up at the moon in the sky. He was a person who had experienced many things, so he naturally knew that the most complicated thing in the world was the human heart.

"Godmother, the most important thing now is whether you still think Yu'an can be the master of the world."

What Zhang Shengzi asked should also be what Wang Longyun asked.

In fact, Shu Yan was also asking herself this question, she clenched her fists tightly.

"The kid I met on the road who grew up eating human flesh was so innocent."

Zhang Shengzi didn't know why Shu Yan said such a sentence carelessly. The child who looked like a wild beast appeared in his mind.

Shu Yan let out a long sigh of relief.

"Asura has been placed in that situation since he was born. He will naturally turn into a man-eating beast. But when he met me, he had other choices."

Zhang Shengzi narrowed his eyes slightly.

"My godmother thinks that we should give Yu'an another choice."

Shu Yan nodded.

Zhang Shengzi continued to ask: "If Yu'an still made the wrong choice, what will the godmother do? Will Cheng San ascend to the throne?"

Shu Yan looked at the sky speechlessly. She was just an ordinary middle-aged woman, how could she answer this question.

Zhang Shengzi suddenly said: "Maybe come and sit in this seat."

Shu Yan was stunned. She really didn't know how Zhang Shengzi thought she could sit in that position.

Zhang Shengzi naturally saw Shu Yan's doubts and chuckled.

"Because there was no such person as my godmother before."

Shu Yan smiled helplessly.

"Let's not talk about this anymore. The location of Yunshan Village is so remote. Why does Wang Longyun spend so much time on it?"

Shu Yan saw that the terrain didn't look like a plain granary.

Zhang Shengzi smiled slightly.

"You'll know when you get there."

In Taizhou City, Cheng San and Bai Guichen followed Sui Ying to the camp outside Taizhou City and met an old acquaintance, He Xiao.

He is now the quartermaster of Taizhou Camp, and he looks much thinner than usual.

Cheng San was quite dissatisfied with this person. After all, he accepted Shu Yan as his godmother, but he still helped Su Yanqing to do things, and he was regarded as a spy.

Cheng San mocked He Xiao: "Brother He is not Mr. Su's student, why do you want to be a lowly official in this small Taizhou camp?"

Cheng San's taunting skills are always perfect.

He Xiao was not angry, but just whispered: "The soldiers in the army tend to take refuge with Mr. Su, and General Wang is not here. If you don't pay more attention, I am afraid that when General Wang returns, Taizhou City will change hands."

Cheng San and Bai Guichen looked at each other, and Sui Ying said in a low voice: "Everyone is doing things for the supervisor, so there is no need to worry about the past. Mr. He naturally has his own difficulties. This is an urgent moment, so don't relax."

Bai Guichen nodded and said, "We understand."

At this moment, a soldier came in from outside the door. This man was quite burly. He was Wang Longyun's confidant Chen Du. He only heard this Chen Du say: "General Fei Ge passed a letter and awarded Mr. Bai the position of deputy general. Please also ask Mr. Bai." The deputy general is temporarily in charge of the entire army."
