Gu Jiao walked over.

Wei Renchong looked up at her.

Gu Jiao looked at the shadow on the ground and said, "I’m not blocking the light."

Wei Renchong buried his head and continued repairing the armor.

"Need some help?" Gu Jiao asked, "I used to be a doctor, stitching up things is my specialty."

Wei Renchong frowned, seeming somewhat impatient with this young man, but didn’t know how to drive him away.

He could only say indifferently, "No need."

Gu Jiao sat down on the threshold, resting her elbow on her knee, supporting her head with one hand as she watched him: "I met with Li Shen and Zhao Dengfeng yesterday."

"What exactly are you trying to do?" Wei Renchong frowned.

"To win over the old subordinates of the Xuanyuan family." Gu Jiao said bluntly.

The Heifeng Camp, governed by the Han family for over ten years, was undeniably strong, but the Han family dispersed too many excellent officers, and many of Xuanyuan’s old subordinates left one after another.

Wei Renchong, Li Shen, Zhao Dengfeng, and the already deceased Si Zhongkui were originally the four fierce generals of Heifeng Camp, some privately calling them the Four Heavenly Kings.

Now only Wei Renchong is left, and he’s become a blacksmith.

If Gu Jiao wants to restore the morale of the original Heifeng Camp, she must gather these old subordinates of the Xuanyuan family.

"There’s no Xuanyuan family anymore." Wei Renchong said calmly.

Gu Jiao said, "A daily question, will you return to the Vanguard Camp? If not, I’ll come back tomorrow."

Wei Renchong said indifferently, "No matter how many times I tell you, even if you ask for one year, two years, five years, I won’t agree."

Gu Jiao raised an eyebrow: "So you mean you’ll stay in Heifeng Camp for one year, two years, five years... forever and never leave."

Wei Renchong stood up abruptly and went to stoke the boiler: "You should leave now!"

Gu Jiao stood up and dusted off her clothes: "See you tomorrow!"

Wei Renchong pulled the bellows and didn’t look back.

Gu Jiao wandered around the camp again before returning to her own barracks.

Hu Yang had also returned.

"Is it done?" Gu Jiao asked.

"It’s done." Hu Yang, having been in the military camp for so many years, was entrusted with an important task for the first time, and he showed great sincerity and high efficiency.

Either he hadn’t heard the rumors of Zhao Dengfeng colluding with the Han family, or he knew the rumors were false.

From Gu Jiao’s observation of Wei Renchong, the latter was more likely.

"Oh, isn’t this the officer from the other day? Why are you here at my Xianhe Building again?"

In the private room on the second floor, Zhao Dengfeng, holding a beauty in his arms, leaned casually against the window sill looking at the young man on horseback below.

"You’re here again to persuade me to return to the military camp? Who wants to live that life where you lick blood from a knife’s edge? How about this, young general, why don’t you be the co-owner of my Xianhe Building?"

Hu Yang was furious and pointed at him with a feather fan and scolded, "Zhao, what are you saying! Young General? This is the new commander of Heifeng Camp, Lord Xiao! I told you this yesterday!"

Gu Jiao said "Hmm" and said, "Co-owner? That’s a good idea."

Zhao Dengfeng looked teasingly at the young man who was being led by the nose: "Right? As long as you have enough silver, it’s not impossible to give you a small half of the Xianhe Building."

Gu Jiao looked up at him: "No need for you to give, I’ll just buy your Xianhe Building!"

Zhao Dengfeng was stunned and then burst into laughter: "Do you know what you’re saying? My Xianhe Building is the best restaurant in town, does your family have a mine, young general—"

Before he finished speaking, he saw the young man on horseback casually toss him a token. freewёbnoνel.com

He caught it and, looking closely, was stunned.
