..........................................

In fact, since all his relatives died, Ma Zhong has been looking for the Thirteen Huang Bo thieves who killed his relatives.

It's a pity that the thirteen thieves of Huangbo at that time had already been pressured by the upper kingdom, so they chose to correct their evil ways and live in seclusion in the Mangniu Kingdom.

But Ma Zhong had no way to take revenge, so he kept searching for evidence and groping a little bit.In the end, Ma Zhong found a clue, proving that the thirteen Huang Bo thieves were all hidden in the Mangniu Kingdom.Therefore, Ma Zhong took advantage of some connections and spent a lot of money to join the Mangniu vassal state and enter the court to participate in politics.

During this period of time, Ma Zhong made a comprehensive investigation based on the time and characters' personalities and other aspects, and felt that Zhao Quan, the lord of Lingyun City, was the most likely.

So Ma Zhong thought of a way to have someone transfer him to Lingyun City.Unexpectedly, Ma Zhong was squeezed out by Zhao Quan and others when he came to Lingyun City, so he had to be a small official and had to investigate a little bit.The arrival of Huang Yun at this time has added obstacles to Ma Zhong's investigation. Fortunately, Huang Tian has eyes and let Huang Bo's thirteen thieves all fall into Huang Yun's hands. It can be said that Huang Yun indirectly replaced Ma Zhong. Zhong avenged his revenge, so after Ma Zhong learned of the situation, he immediately surrendered.

Huang Yun patted Ma Zhong on the shoulder. Now Ma Zhong has avenged his blood, but what about himself?
Now my blood feud is still there, still in that tooth and claw, and I am still powerless!
The second-level vassal state of Luan Star!

What a powerful goal that is!

Huang Yun's eyes followed the prison bars and peered into the sky outside.

"What's the matter, Your Majesty?" Shu Shanhe comforted Ma Zhong for a while, and then asked after seeing Huang Yun's appearance.

"It's nothing." Huang Yun secretly touched the tears in the corner of his eyes. Although his soul didn't feel anything about Huang She, his body felt like it was connected by flesh and blood.

"Since Lord Ma has decided to join our side, then please ask Lord Ma and Lord Shu to replace our lords and go to other places to persuade the officials there to surrender!"

Huang Yun was in no mood now, and was going to recruit other people.

"Yes, Your Majesty." When Ma Zhong saw that Huang Yun had entrusted him with such an important task, he burst into tears of gratitude.

"Your Majesty, you...?" Shu Shanhe was still a little worried.

"My lord is fine, you deal with it as soon as possible, I'll wait for your news at the city lord's mansion." After saying that, Huang Yun left the prison, walking all the way alone, without taking anyone with him.

When passing by a grocery store, Huang Yun saw a cute little girl sitting on the shoulder of a middle-aged man, shaking a rattle and smiling very sweetly.

"Dad, when I grow up in the future, I will also let Dad ride Geng Geng."

"No, as long as Niuniu grows up and finds a good family, then Daddy will be happy."

"What is 'good family'?" The girl asked naively, "Could it be food?"

"Yes, that's for food." The middle-aged man pinched the girl's face lightly, and then said loudly: "Let's go, Niuniu, let's go home, your mother has already prepared meals for us."

"What are you eating today?" The girl asked with a bad face, "Do you still eat vegetable steamed buns?"

When Cai Momo heard these three words, Huang Yun's body trembled.Since Huang Yun took charge of Yanhuang City, neither the residents of Yanhuang City, nor the recently surrendered Yundan, Heiwang, and Qiwang three cities, no residents of any household have eaten steamed buns anymore.

The vegetable buns that the girl mentioned are actually dry food made from ordinary wild vegetables with some grain skins. This kind of dry food does not contain any seasoning, so it tastes dry and tasteless.

Except when there is a disaster every year, those victims will only eat this kind of food. When the other years are better, no one will eat these anymore.

In Lingyun City, which used to be rich and powerful, the residents are now eating steamed buns. This shows how much the Thirteen Thirteen Huangbo Thieves have exploited since they came to power here.

Hey... Sighing, Huang Yun looked at the backs of the girl and the middle-aged man, and returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

In the city lord's mansion, Huang Yun drank a few sips of tea, and then began to write what he saw and heard today, and gave Ma Zhong a vaccination in advance, so that he could properly handle the situation here and let the people have real Eat whole grains.

As yellow clouds continued to pass under the trees, the sky gradually dimmed.

Around six o'clock in the evening, Shu Shanhe brought the exhausted Ma Zhong back to the City Lord's Mansion.After Shu Shanhe's introduction, with the help of Ma Zhong, those officials who were dissatisfied with the Thirteen Thirteen Thieves of Huang Bo in the past were basically willing to surrender, but they were still a little worried. beheaded.

After all, after surrendering, they will be Huang Yun's courtiers, and they will do whatever Huang Yun asks them to do!
Regarding this, Huang Yun gave them a promise, as long as they did not commit crimes, violate the order of the Yanhuang Kingdom, or treason the country, then they could be spared the death penalty, but it was inevitable that they would be convicted.

With Huang Yun's words, Ma Zhong and Shu Shanhe breathed a sigh of relief.

Don't look at it as just a simple sentence.

But as long as this sentence is one word, those who were originally worried don't have to worry.

"Your Majesty has another matter. I think I have to report it to you." After resting for a while, Ma Zhong suddenly remembered something, so he said.

"What's the matter?" Huang Yun looked at Ma Zhong and said.

"Your Majesty, do you know that Mangniu belongs to the country and how many important leaders there are?"

"I don't know!" Huang Yun said frankly.

"According to what my subordinates know, in a few days it will be the [-]th birthday of Yan Ming, the fighting general of the Mangniu Kingdom." Ma Zhong calculated, and then said: "Every year on this day, every major city in the Mangniu Kingdom, each The general, all ministers and workers will give General Yanming a heavy gift, and I, Lingyun City, will do the same."

"Why, after capturing Lingyun City, the lord of the country wants to give birthday gifts to the generals of the enemy country?" Huang Yun immediately said without saying a word when he heard this: "It's simply absurd, my majestic Huang Yun is the lord of a generation , Asking me to give him a gift is simply wishful thinking."

Ma Zhong smiled bitterly, and then used a color for Shu Shanhe on the side.

Shu Shanhe glanced at him, then stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty may not know yet, but this General Yan Ming is a remnant of the Huanghuang Kingdom, and he is also the second-highest figure in the military of the Yanniu Kingdom. He controls one-third of the military strength of the Yanniu vassal country, and currently resides in Lieyan City, which is sixty miles away from Lingyun City."

"Raging Flame City?" Huang Yun's eyes lit up when he heard the name.
