Chapter 5264: Disappeared in an instant

"Lord Ye, even if you are the commander of the right army, you don't have to do anything, it is a great achievement. At most, you can let Feng Qingyun do the command. This battle will definitely win. After the victory, you can return to Tiancheng. Isn't it better?"

Ye Wudao laughed: "Then what position do you think I can hold? How will the emperor reward me then?"

"I don't know, but your power must be on par with the ministers in the court."

"Impossible." Ye Wudao shook his head and said bluntly: "I am actually already sitting high enough. It is impossible to be higher. It is impossible to continue to rise in a short period of time."

" It's not that there is no chance, but because of this I will offend many people, they will not be able to stand me, and finally the rumors and arrows against me will be hard to guard against. "

"Even if His Highness protects me with all his strength, he may not be able to protect me."

"Lord Yuexue, you must know how to advance and retreat."

Hearing this, Yuexue nodded in agreement: "Lord is really amazing. You should make a choice between advancing and retreating. If you are too greedy, the higher you climb, the worse you will fall."

...

Half a day later, Ye Wudao returned to Jiuzhou Tiancheng. The teleportation arrays along the way were opened for him first, and all the continents he passed through sent strong men to escort him.

When he went on the expedition many days ago, there was no such a big show, but Ye Wudao was not happy about it. He still understood the truth that a big tree attracts the wind.

If he can keep a low profile, he will choose to keep a low profile.

Soon after, he arrived at the Sixth Emperor's Mansion. Ji Youlan's confidants had already arrived and gathered in the courtyard. They just waited for Ye Wudao to arrive, and everyone stood up and saluted.

"Master Ye is back."

"We have heard about Master Ye's great achievements on the battlefield."

"You are worthy of being a dragon among men!"

A voice of praise.

Ye Wudao also politely greeted and said: "My lords are polite. I have not made much contribution. It is all thanks to your blessings that it has been so smooth."

After a round of greetings, everyone followed and took their seats. Ji Youlan also smiled, and her expression showed happiness. This time, Ye Wudao's mission was obviously successful.

Ji Youlan said: "I have sent people to protect Qi Ruhai's family. This matter is still thanks to the spy of Minister Liu."

In secret, Ji Youlan has protected Qi Ruhai's family again, and the one who "protected" Qi Ruhai's family before was the master of the Second Princess.

It is not difficult to imagine that when Ye Wudao was in the front, the back was no less peaceful than the front. Ji Youlan was not idle either, and they were all busy.

Then, everyone discussed other important things. Of course, most of these things had nothing to do with Ye Wudao, so Ye Wudao did not speak.

Suddenly, Liu Zhenyun asked: "Fellow Daoist Ye, how is Liu Weiwu doing?"

Ye Wudao said: "I'm afraid we still need your help. It's hard for him to hold on to the position of the state lord. After all, the deputy state lord is a local tyrant, so it's hard for him to be overthrown."

"However, I am very optimistic about him. He is neither arrogant nor impatient. He will definitely become a great talent and the backbone of your Liu family in the future!"

Hearing this, Liu Zhenyun smiled with relief: "Fellow Daoist has such a high evaluation of him. Since you said so, I am relieved. I will do my best to help him gain a foothold in Beizhou."

"By the way, what do you think about the war on the front line and Xihuang? How long will it take this time? Will the cost be too huge, and we may even have to pay out of our own pockets?"

Hearing about paying out of our own pockets, everyone looked different and had their own thoughts in their hearts.

Although under the leadership of Ji Youlan, everyone seemed to be more united, but if their interests were actually affected, I'm afraid this scene of unity would disappear in an instant.
