Chapter 39: Stirrup

Chapter 39

Zhang Mi and Zhong Ji were waiting outside for Yuan Li's summons.

Zhong Ji had a handsome appearance, but he looked extremely haggard at this moment, with dark circles under his eyes. He was uneasy and looked inside the door from time to time. Not long after, he couldn't help it anymore, and paced back and forth, looking extremely uneasy.

Zhang Mi whispered to comfort him, but Zhong Ji couldn't calm down. He really had no other choice. Yuan Li was Zhong Ji's last straw.

When Zhong Ji thought of the tragic death of his wife and daughter, he was filled with despair and anger. He even prepared for the worst. If even Yuan Li couldn't help him, he planned to join the Bai Mi people with all his wealth and ask them to avenge him.

Zhang Mi was very confident in Yuan Li. He said, "Brother Zhong, don't worry. Young Master Yuan will not ignore your matter."

Zhong Ji smiled bitterly and didn't tell him his worries.

The bandits were so fierce that even Che Kangbo, the governor of Yanzhou, had to avoid their limelight. Although Yuanli has a reputation for kindness, he has just arrived in Youzhou. Even if he wants to help him, is he really willing to fight against those bandits?

Even if he is really willing to fight against those bandits, does Yuanli have troops?

Although Chu Hechao, the general of the Northern Frontier, has 130,000 troops, is he really willing to lend his troops to Yuanli?

The more Zhong Ji thought about it, the more uneasy he became. All kinds of "impossible" weighed heavily on his heart. Just as he was trapped in this ups and downs, a servant finally came over, "Please follow me."

Zhong Ji and Zhang Mi looked at each other and hurriedly followed.

As soon as they entered the main hall, they saw Yuanli sitting above. The two saluted and said, "Hello, sir."

"No need to be polite," Yuanli said with a smile, "Please sit down."

Zhang Mi stood up and sat down, but Zhong Ji still bent over and refused to get up. Yuan Li frowned and said, "What are you doing?"

Zhong Ji bent his knees and gave Yuan Li a big bow, and said in a choked voice, "I am Zhong Ji from Jiyin County, Yanzhou. Please forgive my recklessness, but I have nowhere else to go. Please avenge my wife and daughter, and I am willing to pay with my life."

Yuan Li walked over and helped him up, and pressed him to sit on the chair, "Please stand up quickly. If you have any difficulties, just tell me, why do you need such a big bow?"

Zhong Ji swallowed his grief, calmed down, and told the story of his wife and daughter being killed. The tragedy told by the person involved himself was completely different from the feeling of hearing it from others. When he finished speaking, Yuan Li had a cold face, and the anger was rolling underneath, "Where are these bandits from?"

Seeing him so angry, Zhong Ji felt much more at ease. He stood up again and saluted Yuan Li, "The bandits are hiding in Yishan, calling themselves Yishan Army. They are numerous and stretch across several hills. Not only are they powerful, but they are also cruel and ruthless, and have harmed countless passers-by like me. Master Yuan, I beg you to help me!"

 Yuan Li   opened his mouth and was about to speak when the system in his mind popped up.

[The Encyclopedia System has been activated.]

[Task: Suppress the Yishan Army.]

[Reward: Coal Mine Distribution Map.]

If Zhong Ji's wife and daughter had met with trouble in Youzhou, then Yuan Li would have agreed to suppress the bandits without hesitation, because this was in Youzhou's territory, and he had the power and morality to do so.
