Yin Huaixi put down the Kunwu Knife and asked calmly, “What is it?”

Eunuch Zhu was the godson of Eunuch He. He had been arranged by the emperor to come with the army to serve him.

His godfather, Eunuch He, was the number one eunuch in the inner palace. As his godson, he also gained the emperor’s deep trust.

Eunuch Zhu quickly poured a cup of tea and handed it over respectfully. Then, he said, “Chang Ningbo and a few old generals in the army are outside requesting an audience with the general.”

Ever since he arrived in Shandong, Prince Yin had become more and more unpredictable. Every time he served him, he felt like he was walking on thin ice.

It was as if he was not facing a weak heir, but the current emperor.

It was inevitable that he would be careful with his words and actions. Yin Huaixi took a sip of tea and put down his teacup. “How many times has it been?”

Eunuch Zhu was stunned for a moment before he immediately reacted. “It’s already the third time!”

Yin Huaixi took a piece of sandpaper and gently polished the inkstone. “Things can happen again and again, but not again. Each of them will be punished 30 times. Let them receive their own punishment.”

Eunuch Zhu couldn’t help but be shocked. “General, don’t you think 30 hits of the military rod is a little too heavy?”

The emperor had sent him to the army partly to take care of Yin Huaixi’s daily life, and partly to supervise the army.

After Yin Huaixi led the troops to Shandong, he ordered them to station themselves at Langya Mountain for more than a month, but they did not move or do anything.

Chang Ningbo and the other old generals had also been on the battlefield for a long time in the past. They were already indignant to be led by a weak young master like Yin Huaixi.

In the past month, using the excuse of discussing military matters, they had already come over repeatedly to ask Yin Huaixi for a countermeasure. Their intention to pressure him was very obvious.

However, they did not take Yin Huaixi’s reputation seriously.

Yin Huaixi, on the other hand, was relaxed and unaffected by the tense atmosphere in the army.

Every day, he read, practiced his calligraphy, painted, carved inkstones, ate, took a nap, took a bath, and so on.

Not only were Chang Ningbo and the other old generals anxious, but they also had a deep understanding of the saying, “The person involved is calm and collected but observers are very worried.”

Yin Huaixi said calmly, “Tell me, what crimes did they commit?”

Eunuch Zhu held his breath and quickly said, “They were indeed disrespectful to the general. It’s indeed punishable by 30 strokes of the paddle. The general’s orders are not disputable and his punishment is clear. Naturally, I don’t have the intention to question you and be disrespectful.”

How could a small servant in the palace not be smart?

He immediately understood that Yin Huaixi had been waiting for a long time.

The old men were causing trouble and he was waiting for htem to cross the line. After being hit by the military stick, they became obedient, and Yin Huaixi’s military might rose.

He didn’t even bother to be calculative.

Yin Huaixi supported his forehead with one hand. Even though he was wearing a black iron mask, he still looked graceful and noble.

Eunuch Zhu carefully considered his words and continued, “It’s just that the few old generals aren’t young. I’m afraid they won’t be able to take it anymore. The situation in Shandong is unknown. I don’t know when the war will start. At that time, the old generals will be injured and it won’t be convenient for them to go to the battlefield.”

In other words, it didn’t matter if they were beaten up.

However, not everyone could bear the consequences of hitting someone. Once the military was delayed, even the commander would be blamed.

Yin Huaixi smiled. “Are you teaching me how to do things?”

Eunuch Zhu’s expression changed drastically. He knelt on the ground with a thud and said in a trembling voice, “I, I wouldn’t dare. Since the emperor has sent me to serve you, I naturally have to listen to your orders and be loyal to you.”

Yin Huaixi’s red lips curled up slightly. “Get up!”

There were different levels of a servant. There were many smart people in this world, but often, smart people were either very arrogant and ignorant. Only smart and sensible people who recognized their identities could be used.

Eunuch Zhu heaved a sigh of relief and stood up obediently.

Yin Huaixi said calmly, “30 strokes of the paddle. They’ll be fine in a month!” These casual words shocked Eunuch Zhu.

Just now, he was worried that if Yin Huaixi beat up the old generals and the war in Shandong suddenly erupted, the old generals would be seriously injured and couldn’t lead the troops. He had spoken to persuade him.

But now, Yin Huaixi had said that they could recuperate in a month!

Could he understand that Yin Huaixi had already predicted that the war in Shandong would not erupt in the next month?

Furthermore, could it be inferred that in a month, the army would start fighting?

Could it be that the situation in Shandong was already completely under Yin Huaixi’s control?

As Eunuch Zhu was thinking, he heard a commotion outside—

“General Chang, this is the main general’s tent. You can’t barge in!”

“Move aside. I have military matters to discuss with Chief Yin. If the military intelligence is delayed, can a dog slave like you bear the responsibility? Move aside!”

“You can’t enter without Master’s permission…”

“Get lost. I’m the deputy general of the east expedition personally conferred by the emperor. How can a dog slave like you stop me at will…”

As soon as Uncle Chang Ning shouted, there was a bang outside, followed by the young eunuch’s sharp wail.

Eunuch Zhu’s face darkened. Just as he was about to reprimand him, he saw a thick black hand suddenly lift the tent curtain and stride in.

“Head…” Before he could say the word “general”!

Uncle Chang Ning suddenly froze and his eyes widened. In his turbid eyes, there was an arrow of gold and iron shooting towards him at lightning speed.

“Swish—” The sharp arrow aura was wrapped in a strong wind, and even the air in the tent could not help but howl!

Chang Ningbo, who had been through hundreds of battles, felt his mind blank. He had actually forgotten to dodge.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to hide!

It was impossible!

In his eyes, Yin Huaixi, who was “like trash”, shot an arrow with a thunderous and powerful aura. What shocked him even more was that this arrow carried a murderous aura.

It was something that only generals who had been in the field for a long time and killed countless enemies could have.

Yin Huaixi, a fifteen-year-old young master, actually had a murderous aura that was even more terrifying than him, an old general who fought all year round!

He could not avoid such a killing intent at all!

Oh no!

Eunuch Zhu exclaimed, “Chief Yin, no…

Before he could say the word “but”, he heard a whoosh and Uncle Chang Ning suddenly closed his eyes— Waiting for death!

With a clang, the arrow pierced Chang Ningbo’s forehead.

The tent was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop!

The three old generals following behind Uncle Chang Ning looked at Yin Huaixi in shock.

He was wearing a black python robe, and the golden embroidery on his shoulders made him look like a ferocious tiger. He swooped down, bared his fangs, and brandished his claws. There was a golden jade belt around his waist, exuding a monstrous noble aura. He held a longbow in his hand and casually lifted the bowstring..
