Chapter 381 The Heir
When Qin Yi and Zhang Yan arrived at Xiangling City, white silk was hung on the gate of Xiangling City, and all the soldiers of the Xihe Army stationed in Xiangling were also wrapped in white cloth on their heads.Yang Sui was completely clothed as a filial son.

Because Yuci is far away from Xiangling, Qin Yi and Zhang Yan arrived a little late.The other generals of the Xihe Army have been in Xiangling for several days.

Yang Sui, Li Le, Han Xian, Peng Tuo and other generals welcomed Zhang Yan and Qin Yi into the city.Afterwards, they led the two of them to the county government to offer incense to Yang.

The entire county government has been set up as a great mourning hall, with banners and white silk fluttering everywhere.When everyone came to the coffin, Qin Yi and Zhang Yan came forward to offer incense to Yang.

No matter it is true or false, a bitter cry is indispensable.Yang Sui, Li Le and others also accompanied Qin Yi and Zhang Yan to mourn for a while.

Afterwards, everyone came to the second hall of the county government to drink tea.After lamenting for a while, Han Xian got up suddenly, cupped his hands towards Qin Yi, and said, "Master Qin, there is something that Han is puzzled about, and I hope the Lord will give you some advice."

Qin Yi immediately understood what Han Xian wanted to ask, but he pretended not to know and said, "Please tell me, Magistrate Han."

"The day before yesterday, Zhao Zilong and Xiahou Ziqing from your department led more than [-] troops to Guishi County suddenly. Lord Qin, now that the war is over, why do you want to send troops to invade the country?" Han Siam questioned Qin Yi with an unfriendly expression.

Qin Yi frowned: "Breaking the border? County magistrate Han's words are stinging. Although the war is over, the coalition agreement between our Shangdang army and your Xihe army has not yet been dissolved. Qin is still the commander of the coalition army. How to mobilize the two soldiers and horses is the responsibility of Qin, so is County Magistrate Han questioning Qin's military orders?"

"I……"

Being accused by Qin Yi's stern voice, Han Xian's momentum suddenly dropped.Before he could continue speaking, Qin Yi immediately said, "But since County Magistrate Han asked about this, then Qin will explain it to you. General Yang died in a battle with Lu Bu's army, and he led his troops to fight with General Yang. Hou Cheng is also dead. Hou Cheng is Lu Bu's younger brother. If Lu Bu learns of Hou Cheng's death, he will most likely lead troops to attack Xiangling to avenge Hou Cheng. General Yang's funeral will definitely affect your war In order to prevent Lu Bu from attacking, Qin ordered Zhao Yun and Xia Houlan to lead troops to Xiangling to strengthen Xiangling's defense. County magistrate Han, do you think Qin's move is inappropriate?"

Han Xian hurriedly cupped his hands towards Qin Yi, and said, "It's Han who asked rashly. Don't blame the commander!"

Seeing that Han Xian changed his name, Qin Yi secretly rejoiced: As long as you still recognize me as a handsome man, then the following things will be easier to handle.

"Magistrate Han is also out of public interest, Qin will not blame you." Qin Yi's tone also became gentle.

Li Le stood up at this moment, cupped his hands to Qin Yi and said, "Commander, Hou Cheng was shot and killed by you, General Yang's revenge has been avenged, and our Xihe Army is deeply grateful for the kindness of Commander!"

Qin Yi waved his hand: "Xiao and General Yang are brothers, and it is only right to avenge him. There is no need for Li Junshi to do this, please sit down quickly."

After Li Le took his seat, he added: "Commander, as you just said, our Xihe Army and Shangdang Army are still coalition forces. Therefore, I hope that the Marshal will take care of General Yang's funeral."

Qin Yi nodded: "A certain came to Xiangling to attend the funeral of General Yang. However, Qin has never experienced this kind of thing, so I don't know the specific procedure, and I hope you can help Qin."

"It's my duty to wait!" Li Le and others all bowed their hands to Qin Yi.

Zhang Yan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said at this moment: "To mourn for General Yang, we must first determine the person who will perform the funeral. Otherwise, the funeral cannot be carried out."

"Top basin? What's the matter?" Qin Yi asked Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yandao: "In folk mourning, the filial son is the one who will carry the pot. If there are many filial sons, the eldest son will carry the pot."

Li Le also said: "That's it. Whoever carries the basin will inherit the position of the deceased's head of the family."

In fact, Qin Yi had inquired clearly about these things a long time ago. He sang together with Zhang Yan and Li Le in order to bring the topic to the matter of determining the heir to the command of the Xihe Army.

Qin Yi pretended to be surprised: "General Yang has no heirs, and Yang Suinai is his heir. Naturally, Yang Sui should take the helm. Is there any need to discuss this matter?"

Yang Sui is guarding the spirit of Yang Feng at this time, and will not come here.

Peng Tuo said: "No, no, although Yang Sui is a filial son, General Yang is the commander of our Xihe Army. General Yang's funeral is the funeral of the entire Xihe Army. Yang Sui inherited General Yang's family wealth as a filial son. There is no problem, but the person we want to determine will inherit the position of commander of the Xihe Army. Therefore, we cannot generalize."

"Oh, that's how it is!" Qin Yi pretended to be enlightened, and then said: "This matter is a private matter of the Xihe Army, and it is inconvenient for Qin to intervene. Everyone, you have gathered in Xiangling for some time, have you ever discussed it? This matter?"

When Qin Yi asked this question, Han Xian, Li Le, and Peng Tuo were all silent.Seeing this, Qin Yi knew in his heart: It seems that they have already had a dispute over the succession to the position of commander.I came just in time!

"Everyone, why are you silent?" Qin Yi asked.

Li Le sighed suddenly: "Oh, Commander, to tell the truth, before the Commander and General Zhang came, we had discussed several times who should inherit the command of the Xihe Army. However, Li and County Magistrate Han, Peng The school lieutenant has many supporters, and it is difficult to make a decision at the moment."

"Oh, so the three of you are qualified to inherit the position of General Yang!" Zhang Yan smiled playfully.

Li Le, Han Xian, and Peng Tuo's expressions immediately became a little embarrassed.

"What about Yang Sui? Is he qualified to succeed General Yang?" Qin Yi asked.

"This..." Li Le hesitated for a moment, "Accordingly, Yang Sui is the son of General Yang, and the son should inherit his father's career. However, Yang Sui's qualifications are too low, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince everyone!"

"Yes, if Yang Sui's qualifications are comparable to that of Mr. Li Junshi and Captain Peng, then Mr. Sui will definitely support his succession. We don't have to argue anymore." Han Xian said carelessly.

"After all, you are bullying Yang Suiyou!" Zhang Yan smiled coldly.

On the way here, he and Qin Yi had discussed it. After arriving in Xiangling, if there was a discussion about the successor of the Xihe Army commander, Qin Yi would sing the red face and Zhang Yan would sing the bad face.Anyway, Zhang Yan has no friendship with the generals of the Xihe Army.Today, Zhang Yan is trying her best to sing the role of the white face well. Although what she says is true, she doesn't care about the faces of Li Le, Han Xian, and Peng Tuo.

In fact, Zhang Yan also agreed with Yang Sui's succession. The reason is very simple. In the future, after the Black Mountain Army moved to Hedong County, it would be adjacent to Xihe County. Xihe County has a weak commander, which reduces the threat to Hedong County.Although the Black Mountain Army and the Xihe Army are now allies, the relationship between the two of them was completely brought together by Qin Yi, and there is actually no basis for it.What's more, allies are Elico, and they will be disbanded in the future because of profit. Who knows how long it will last.

Therefore, out of consideration for his own interests, after Zhang Yan heard Qin Yi say that he wanted to support Yang Sui's succession, Zhang Yan fully agreed.

As soon as Zhang Yan uttered these sarcastic words, the expressions of Li Le, Han Xian, and Peng Tuo became even uglier.
