1549: Enemy

Enemy

The current Commandery Prince Wu Wei was actually an official of the Great Xia Dynasty.2

After the Great Xia Dynasty was broken through by the rebels, Wu Wei relied on his superior position in his county to dominate the north of the Yellow River. He recruited troops and recruited talents in the world, quickly becoming the dominator of the world. Under his hands, many talents gathered.

However, even though his power was so strong, Jiang Qing in his previous life did not care about it. He thought highly of himself and felt that he was also a tyrant in Jiangdong. He had never bothered to mix with these smelly fish and prawns.

However, now, when he returned here with the memories of his previous life, the first thing he thought of was to come to the Wu family incognito and become Wu Wei's subordinate.

Wu Wei's ability to become an overlord so quickly did not have much to do with his personal ability. It was mainly because his ancestor had left him a large number of resources.

After giving him a fertile land and a natural defense that could resist a large number of attacks, Wu Wei easily obtained the best primitive accumulation.

Just Wu Wei alone was not very capable, but he was very ambitious.

Jiang Qing only dared to say those words because he had targeted this side of him.

As expected, Wu Wei hesitated for a while before looking up at Jiang Qing. "Nephew, you're right. Now that the world is in chaos and heroes are fighting for supremacy, which man doesn't want to reach the top?? Nephew, do you dare to say that you didn't have such thoughts?"

Hearing Wu Wei's words, Jiang Qing immediately stood up and cupped his fists at Wu Wei. "By the heavens, I swear on the lives of my parents, wife, and children that I, Jiang Qin, don't have any ulterior motives. I'm just a commoner. It's already my ancestors' good deeds to be favored by the Duke. How would I dare to think of anything else? Duke, you're wise."

Seeing Jiang Qing deny it so decisively, Wu Wei's trust in Jiang Qing deepened. He stroked his beard and nodded. "Nephew, don't think too much. That's not what I meant. Nephew, why did you ask me to go to Longguan Town just now?"

Seeing that Wu Wei had already removed his guard against him, Jiang Qing sat back down. "Royal Prince, even if you have the intention to fight for the Central Plains now, your name is not legitimate after all. If you can control the emperor and order the dukes, won't that be legitimate?"

"Nephew, what you mean is that the surviving members of the Xia Dynasty in Longguan Town are? That's impossible. They've clearly been beheaded by the rebels."

"Prince, you might not know this." Jiang Qing sneered. "Back then, Xia Wanyuan used a golden cicada escape plan and let a group of death row prisoners replace her and her younger siblings. Only then did she successfully leave that place and let the world think that they were already dead."

"I see, but." Wu Wei was still a little wary of Jiang Qing. How did Jiang Qing know about this news that even he had not received?? "Where did Nephew learn this news?? Is it true?"

Jiang Qing looked sad. "Because my younger brother was the person Xia Wanyuan made to be a scapegoat. I have an irreconcilable hatred for them. I hope that you can stand up for me and let me successfully avenge my poor younger brother's vengeful spirit."

As Jiang Qing spoke, tears appeared in his eyes.

Looking at Jiang Qing's sincere expression, Wu Wei finally believed him a little. He nodded. "Nephew, don't worry. As long as you can really help me capture Xia Wanyuan and her younger brother, I'll definitely let you personally kill Xia Wanyuan and avenge your family."
