Chapter 201 Ye Mingsheng's Pillow
"My Lord, when will we arrive?" Seeing that Bai Renxuan was silent, Ye Mingsheng took the initiative to ask:
According to the planned schedule, as the pioneer, he left a month earlier than Chen Dechang, and Chen Dechang, Wang Muzhi and others followed. However, it has been nearly a month and a half since he arrived in Liaoyang. Even if Chen Dechang was delayed a little, he should have arrived by now. But there is still no news from Ye Mingsheng.

"There have been some changes in the court, so it will take some time for the Marquis to arrive, but it will be soon, in about half a month!" Bai Renxuan explained:
After saying this, Bai Renxuan changed the subject and looked at Ye Mingsheng and asked:

"Master Ye, Lord Marquis, I would like to ask how the recruitment is going on here?"

Holding up five fingers towards Bai Renxuan, Ye Mingsheng said confidently: "Almost 5,000 people!"

Bai Renxuan's face showed a little strange color when he heard this, and the next second he frowned and said:

"really?"

Feeling the questioning tone in Bai Renxuan's words, Ye Mingsheng said without hesitation:

"Mr. Bai, if you don't believe me, you can go and see it tomorrow!"

Seeing Ye Mingsheng said this, although Bai Renxuan still had doubts in his heart, he could only nod.

It was Bai Renxuan who suggested that Chen Dechang assign Ye Mingsheng the task of recruiting 10,000 soldiers. The purpose was to encourage Ye Mingsheng to seek help from the Cui family. In Bai Renxuan's opinion, if Ye Mingsheng relied on himself, he could probably only recruit 2,000 to 3,000 people at most...

And if Ye Mingsheng really recruited 5,000 people by himself, then this means that Bai Renxuan's judgment was completely wrong, and extremely wrong.

After thinking for a few seconds, Bai Renxuan, who came on behalf of Chen Dechang, carefully considered his words and asked Ye Mingsheng tentatively:
"How does Lord Ye plan to recruit the remaining 5,000 people?"

"It's been a while since I returned to Liaoyang. It's time for me to get to know my relatives." Ye Mingsheng said calmly:
Hearing what Ye Mingsheng said, a smile finally appeared on Bai Renxuan's elegant face. He bowed towards Ye Mingsheng and said. When he said the last three words "good news", the scholar deliberately emphasized the tone.

"The Marquis is waiting for good news from Lord Ye!"

"Ye will work hard!" Seeing Bai Renxuan bringing up Chen Dechang, Ye Mingsheng narrowed his eyes and said indifferently:
After finishing the business, Bai Renxuan was about to go back and report to Chen Dechang. As the host, Ye Mingsheng pretended to keep Bai Renxuan, then sent him to the door and watched Chen Dechang's strategist leave.

After watching Bai Renxuan's departing back, Ye Mingsheng no longer concealed his gloomy expression.

When he was first transferred to the Zhenwu Army, Ye Mingsheng was somewhat grateful for Bai Renxuan's help. However, as he got to know the internal situation of the Zhenwu Army, Ye Mingsheng vaguely guessed Chen Dechang's thoughts. Knowing that he was being used as a pawn, he didn't have much gratitude left for Bai Renxuan...
He gave him some respect for the sake of Chen Dechang, but Bai Renxuan really treated him as a nobody.

Does Ye really need Chen Dechang's staff to come and make trouble when he gets things done?

This time, considering his previous help to me, I will let him off. If he still doesn't know how to restrain himself, I should teach him a lesson and let him know what's good for him! Ye Mingsheng was in a bad mood. He didn't return to his study to work, but went to Pei Zhixiu's room to take a nap. Pei Zhixiu was tall and slender, with a pair of jade-like legs that were thick and tender, and firm. Since they were together, Ye Mingsheng had fallen in love with using her as his pillow while playing with her.
Pei Zhixiu was also very happy to see Ye Mingsheng coming. Originally, she was the only woman around Ye Mingsheng, so she could naturally enjoy Ye Mingsheng's exclusive favor. However, with the addition of Jinyu, Ye Mingsheng's limited energy was also diverted a lot...

Seeing that Ye Mingsheng was not in a good mood and looked a little tired, Pei Zhixiu lit a stick of incense in the incense burner. As the incense burned, Ye Mingsheng, who was resting his eyes on Pei Zhixiu's smooth jade back, also smelled the fragrance in the air.

Ye Mingsheng couldn't find words to describe this fragrance, he just felt that it smelled good and his heart felt a lot calmer after smelling it.

"Ji Xiu, what kind of incense and candles are these?" Ye Mingsheng yawned, opened his eyes, looked at Pei Zhixiu's pretty face, and asked curiously:
"I added a few herbs to the ordinary calming incense. If you like, try it a few more times..."

As Pei Zhixiu spoke, a hint of resentment flashed in her beautiful eyes, as if she was blaming Ye Mingsheng for having a new love and forgetting his old love and neglecting her.

Feeling the beauty's intention, Ye Mingsheng gently rubbed her round spot, causing Pei Zhixiu to complain.

After exchanging a few personal words, Ye Mingsheng felt sleepy and couldn't help falling asleep.

Perhaps it was the effect of Pei Zhixiu's incense and candles that made Ye Mingsheng sleep particularly sweetly. However, it was a pity that someone came to disturb Ye Mingsheng's sweet dream after only half an hour of sleep.

"Ok?"

After hearing Pei Zhixiu's voice beside him, Ye Mingsheng slowly woke up from his sleep.

"Ye Dong has something to talk to you about, and he looks very anxious," Pei Zhixiu said softly. After she finished speaking, she looked outside the door. Ye Dong was pacing anxiously there, as if he wanted to come in, but he was afraid of ruining Ye Mingsheng's plan, so he was in a dilemma and didn't know what to do...
Looking at Ye Dong's figure, Ye Mingsheng was stunned at first, and then he remembered that he had something to do this afternoon. Ye Tie wanted to introduce someone to him. Although the other party was not a particularly important person, being late was not a good thing.

Thinking of this, although Ye Mingsheng was reluctant to leave Pei Zhixiu's bed, he had always been good at execution, so he immediately got up from the bed, quickly tidied his clothes, and asked Pei Zhixiu:

"What time is it now?"

"There is still a quarter of an hour until noon." Pei Zhixiu hesitated for a moment and replied:
Upon hearing this, Ye Mingsheng felt a little relaxed. There was still some time. Pei Zhixiu saw that Ye Mingsheng really had something to do, so she got up from the bed, washed a wet handkerchief, and gently wiped Ye Mingsheng's face.

After Pei Zhixiu finished wiping, Ye Mingsheng hugged the beauty's slender waist, kissed her delicate face lightly and whispered: "Wash yourself tonight and wait for me..."
