Chapter 358
Chapter 358
Young General Yu will not see the king off as he is in mourning. These princes in the mourning hall cannot tolerate this!
They filed out and stood at the gate, respectfully seeing the king off as his carriage left.
Seeing this, General Yu was so angry that he trembled all over. "How dare they?"
"That's the king, we still have to keep it to ourselves." Mr. Zeng advised quietly, "The young general can be willful and ignore him. But the princes can't, they don't have the strength to do so." He said sadly, "It is the top priority to send the general off quietly."
"Alas..." Young General Yu sighed heavily, unwillingly, "This rage will come out sooner or later."
"You are just a clown. Mr. Huang and the princes will look at you first before taking any action." Mr. Zeng continued to persuade.
"Let's go!" Young General Yu looked at him and said, perking up.
"Hey, hey!" Mr. Zeng hurried to find the manager to arrange the funeral.
Funeral music sounded, white banners were waved, the coffin was lifted up, paper money was scattered into the air, and the funeral procession, stretching for more than ten miles, began.
Shen Hui'e and the others watched the funeral procession disappear from their sight before turning around and getting on the carriage arranged by Yu Luo.

Outsiders were driving the car, and Shen Hui'e and the others couldn't say anything until they returned to the camp.
Tie Feng and the others bowed and said in unison, "Congratulations, Your Majesty. Congratulations, Your Majesty."
"Go ahead, you're teasing me." Huang Zhongchang looked at them with amusement and said, "Be careful when you go out, don't mention this Marquis too much."
"What's wrong?" Tie Feng put away the smile on his face and looked at him seriously, "What happened?"
"This king provoked me and General Yu to make this announcement at the funeral hall." Huang Zhongchang said unhappily, "Don't you think it's unlucky?"
"This is General Yu's mourning hall! Is it appropriate?" Zhang Jixian said dissatisfiedly, "It's too disrespectful."
"This is indeed too rude." Tie Feng looked at them in disbelief.
"Mom, Dad, let's talk in the house." The big tiger looked at them with his black eyes and said.
"Let's talk inside." Huang Zhongchang said to them with a smile.
Huang Zhongchang and his companions walked into the house and sat down on the floor.
"The relationship between the king and General Yu is really tense!" Shen Hui'e said with emotion.
"Yes! I'm really afraid that they will fight in the mourning hall if they disagree." Zhang Jixian said with lingering fear, "Does General Yu know anything about this act of sworn brotherhood today? Or is there nothing else involved?"
"Do you want to know whether he knew in advance that the king was going to confer a title of nobility?" Huang Zhongchang asked, looking at him with his dark eyes.
"Yes!" Zhang Jixian nodded slightly when he heard that.
"Unlike he knew it in advance, he was also very surprised, especially when he was named Marquis of Chang'an. He was so angry that his nose was crooked." Shen Hui'e said to them with raised eyebrows.
"Then the king is such a bastard!" Tie Feng's eyes almost popped out of the window when he heard this, "This is the general's mourning hall."
"Yeah! I can't figure it out." Shen Hui'e said with a pout.
"Wait a minute, that Young General Yu has become sworn brothers with you, Mr. Huang." Tie Feng said while looking straight at them.
"Oh! We became sworn brothers, and in front of the mourning hall." Huang Zhongchang nodded slightly.
"This mourning hall is quite lively." Tie Feng said as he looked at them in amazement.
"You go ahead, and he comes on stage." Shen Hui'e sneered, looked at him with amusement and said, "You really keep that oath! We don't ask to be born on the same day of the same month of the same year, but we ask to die on the same day of the same month of the same year. We share the joys and sorrows, life and death together..."
"Tsk..." Huang Zhongchang said unhappily, "How is that possible?"
"Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?" Shen Hui'e teased with a smile.
"How can there be so many days of lightning?" Huang Zhongchang chuckled, raised his eyebrows and looked at her and said, "Don't you believe it?"
"You forgot that the military camp outside Hezhong Prefecture was struck by lightning." Shen Hui'e said deliberately with her eyes moving.
"Uh..." Huang Zhongchang was speechless for a moment. After thinking for a while, he said, "What they did is outrageous to both humans and gods. They deserve to be struck by lightning." He looked at her with a smile and said, "I didn't do anything that angered the gods. On the contrary, I acted on behalf of the gods." He smiled and said, "Madam and I did this together."
Upon hearing this, Shen Hui'e looked at him in astonishment, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?" Huang Zhongchang looked at her proudly and said.
How childish! Shen Hui'e complained in her heart.
Tie Feng watched the couple bickering with a silly smile on his face.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jixian clenched his fist and coughed twice to remind them that we are still here!
Huang Zhongchang blushed when he heard this, and said uncomfortably, "Why does he want to become sworn brothers with us?"
"Because they found out that we are very strong!" Tie Feng looked at them with his dark eyes and said as a matter of course.
"It's possible." Huang Zhongchang nodded when he heard it.
"They should summarize the gains and losses of the Taoqiu battle!" Tie Feng stared at them and said, "Although we are well rested, the government troops are very strong and we still have the advantage in numbers."
"Yeah!" Huang Zhongchang nodded vigorously after hearing this, and thought carefully, "This sworn brotherhood is too insincere, too calculated!" He snorted and said, "Although my heart is not sincere, they are too... They think I am a fool!"
"Maybe!" Shen Hui'e snorted coldly, "It's like the king rewarding a marquis. You, a peasant, shouldn't kneel down and kowtow to express your gratitude!"
"They look down on us and place a lot of importance on our origins." Huang Zhongchang rolled his eyes and said seriously, "Don't ask where a hero comes from. Shouldn't strength be respected in the army?"
"It's hard to say. They still value family background more, such as the sons of generals." Zhang Jixian looked at them with his dark eyes and said, "These nobles are indeed better than the common people in terms of education."
"Common people don't even have the right to learn to read, let alone systematically learn how to fight." Shen Hui'e said to them with a slightly cold look in her eyes.
"Yeah!" Huang Zhongchang nodded vigorously after hearing this, "Unless he is self-taught, a rare genius in a century." He then added, "I just don't know how many pitfalls he will have to step on before he can get it right."
Shen Hui'e chuckled when she heard this and said, "The master leads you to the door, but it's up to you to practice."
"Haha..." Huang Zhongchang raised his eyebrows and said, "It's better to have a master. I can avoid taking detours."
"What should we do now?" Zhang Jixian looked at them seriously and said, looking at him with burning eyes, "Marquis Wu'an."
"Go! Even you are like this." Huang Zhongchang looked at him with a smile, then put away the smile on his face and said, "Let's get out of this troubled place quickly. Don't let them take their anger out on us when they fight."
"We must leave, and the time has to be right." Zhang Jixian said after thinking.
