.....

Qin Yu and Li Luo had already gained the military orders and seal, what’s more Yunxi City’s commander, the Governor, had also been killed in his room. Therefore, once Qin Yu revealed them together with the severed head of the Governor, the campaign that had just been starting was concluded. The Yunxi City’s soldiers, who moments ago had wanted to fight back, right away abandoned their weapons one after another, choosing to surrender.

Since now they were a group of dragons without a leader, there was no meaning in fighting. Moreover deep in their heart they actually wanted to surrender and pay allegiance to Qin Yu. They had long ago heard how wise Qin Yu was, and how he and his soldiers ate similar meals. It was nothing like the particular rumors that spread around. Also in regards of the emperor, Qin Yan, they actually concealed a trace of resentment in their hearts.

After all, whose family doesn’t have a few relatives, so Qin Yan’s way of handling things made these soldiers’ hearts turn cold. If they permitted that kind of man to continue to sit on the throne, who knew what would become of Qin country.

Thus, when they saw the governor’s corpse, the military orders, and the military seal, almost in a split second, all of the soldiers surrendered.

……

Qin Yu brought Li Luo to their sleeping quarters for the time being. They were a courtyard with beautiful landscapes in the governor residence.

Originally when he saw how big this courtyard was, Li Lou wanted to stay in a side room. But at the sight of Qin Yu’s expression, which had became gloomy when he saw where he (Li Lou) was heading, he reluctantly changed his mind and put his things inside a cupboard in the main room.

By the time the battle was over and the army was reorganized, the sky had already brightened.

Although Li Luo hadn’t slept for a whole night, he didn’t feel tired whatsoever. Qin Yu was very energetic as well, he didn’t resemble a person who had been sleeping for only one or two hours for several days.

After sorting out their personal belongings, the two men and the army’s military advisers were ready to go to the governor’s warehouse to check the accounting. They were done with it the following day. After doing the checks, the wealth embezzled by the Governor from the people in recent years have been returned to them.

This move naturally won Qin Yu even more support from the people. There were many peasants, which had been forced to write down IOU by the Governor because of inability to pay the taxes, that directly kneeled on the ground and kowtow a few times in front of Qin Yu. There were also many people that had been previously oppressed by the governor, who set up tablets of Qin Yu, and every day lit up incense, while praying for him. They believe the Heavens had finally opened their eyes, letting them have a days to look forward to.

After finishing with distributing the governor’s embezzled wealth, all of the remaining was used as military expenditure. This income, immediately turned Xiang Bei Army’s originally strained financial position abundant. This showed just how luxurious of a life the Governor had lead throughout the last years.

At night, Li Luo and Qin Yu had had a feast with all of the soldiers. Li Luo touched his round belly as hiccupped and walked unsteadily. He was returning to the courtyard where he and Qin Yu were staying.
