Good Man Operation Guide

Zhou City’s daily life was probably like this.

We heard you fought? Did you lose? It doesn’t matter, look at the new weapon we developed. Use it, and make sure you can turn the tables.

Eh, you won? Congratulations, but don’t be proud if you win. Let’s take a look at the new weapons. It’s an exclusive one. It hasn’t been sold to other cities yet. Just bring the food and exchange for it.

You didn’t get involved this time? Watching from the sidelines is great, but they just had a fight, and they may be eyeing you next. You still need to make some preparations. Do you want to see this weapon? Buying it and putting it over there is quite a deterrent.

All the rebel groups had seen Zhou City’s true face.

That’s a villain!

Such a shameless one!

Cowering up there, but still acting like they were good to everyone. As soon as the rations ran out and needed food, they would immediately start encouraging them to buy weapons. If they didn’t buy them, others would buy them. If others buy them and use them, and they didn’t have them, isn’t that just sitting around, waiting to be eaten?

The shameless old thief! They could only hold each other back and couldn’t lay a hand on Zhou City!

The rebel groups could only vomit blood when they saw Zhou City’s shameless face. Luckily, they could comfort themselves at this time. Fortunately, Zhou City wasn’t involved. Fortunately, Zhou City only had a group of homeless people who couldn’t support themselves and could only wait for food every day. Otherwise, if such a big weapons city went to battle, and there was a secret weapon, they really wouldn’t know what to do.

The Third Prince always thought so, especially the contents reported by the spies he sent to Zhou City.

All the people were farming fertile land, Zhou City started to build a new city again, and the four sons of the Lord who led the troops, brought a group of soldiers to farm all day. They also took them to run around the city every day in order to win Lord Lin’s favor.

What could running-laps do?

What’s the use of running laps?

That Lin Baozhi was old and couldn’t even digest properly when eating, and that old farmer’s way of doing things hasn’t changed, so he goes out for a walk every day after eating.

A group of strong soldiers running laps around the city?

What’s the point!?

While he secretly disdained it, Murong Xiao had arranged for her underlings to run laps after getting the news. Her people would run a few laps after Zhou City’s people ran a few laps, making sure to do exactly the same way as that Zhou City practiced.

It’s a pity that she had only just implemented it for less than 10 days when the Third Prince who learned about it urgently called for a halt, expressing his disdain when Murong Xiao voiced her concern that those in Zhou City were training in secret.

From ancient times to the present, they have only heard of training with swords, bows and sticks, but had never heard of training while running in circles.

Even if it was training, such soldier training was useless.

Murong Xiao was about to say something else, but was keenly aware of the Third Prince’s displeasure with her attention towards Zhou City.

Apparently, this Lord doesn’t consider Zhou City to be his enemy.

She could only keep her mouth shut, but in her heart, she pondered whether to discuss with her father; to get away from this increasingly headstrong and arrogant Lord.

Zhou City’s disturbing actions appeared frequently. After reading Lin Shiheng’s letter, the Third Prince thought that the Lord who had the cheek to beg for a little grain, didn’t have the courage to really join the battlefield; but Murong Xiao never belittled the enemy. To be precise, after learning about them killing mountain bandits in the canyon, she never belittled the Lord of Zhou City, who was said to be a commoner by birth.

In recent years, because of the discussion on Zhou City, she even had an argument with the Third Prince. Fortunately, her father was on her side. 2 years ago, Murong Xiao turned 20-years-old, and soon it would be time for her marriage with Mo Chenke.

If she got married, she would definitely be tied to the Third Prince’s boat.

But the sudden emergence of Zhou City made their father and daughter uncertain, and they were hesitating whether to rebel against the Third Prince and find another way to make a living, Murong Xiao’s grandfather died.

When an elder passed away, in this case, a grandfather; According to the rules, she needed to keep filial mourning for 3 years, the wedding, naturally, must also be postponed for 3 years.

During this period when Mo Chenke regretted that he couldn’t take the beauty home early, it gained some observation time for Murong Xiao and General Murong.

It’s just a pity that 2 years since the death of the grandfather, the results of the observations still made both father and daughter unoptimistic about the Third Prince.

At the beginning of the uprising, perhaps it was because of foreboding for too long. Before acting, the Third Prince would make every effort to plan their move, and he wouldn’t underestimate the enemy as he did now. However, after a long rebellion, he enjoyed the flattery of the people under him as the real ‘son of heaven’ every day. In addition, as he grew older, he enjoyed seeking pleasure. Now, the Third Prince wasn’t the old Third Prince they knew.

What upsets Murong Xiao the most is her fiancé Mo Chenke.

The reason why she agreed to the marriage at the beginning was not only because it was the intention of the Third Prince, but also because Mo Chenke himself had the ability. There was no other affiliated power behind him, so Mo Chenke had to rely on her father.

However, because of the Zhou City matter, the Murong family doubted him and didn’t marry Murong Xiao early. This, coupled with the time since her grandfather’s death, had been enough for Murong Xiao to see what her fiancé had in mind.

Different from what she thought before, Mo Chenke naively thought that as long as she married Murong Xiao, the forces under General Murong would naturally belong to him and obey his command.

What’s the difference between such a naïve idea and the dim-witted Emperor who had one foot in the grave?!

Maybe the marriage was delayed too long, the Third Prince was dissatisfied with the Murong family. General Murong’s army, which has always been under his command, was going to be broken up.

This added a sense of crisis in both the father and daughter.

They betrayed the court to take refuge under the Third Prince, in order to seek a wise Lord. But now, he hadn’t won the world yet, the Lord had already lost his mind.

So, what’s the point of doing this?

Unlike the Third Prince, who never raised his guard against Zhou City, the other two rebel groups also noticed that everyone had formed a deadlock in the past 3 years.

Because of mutual restraint, the weak court survived, and now the dim-witted Emperor was still on the throne. In case they were in battle, and the current Emperor died, the other party helped others to go up, wouldn’t this rebel group’s banner of ‘purging the Emperor’s corrupt government’ become a joke?

Although Zhou City had been accepting people from all over the world, and had little food supply, but they could make weapons!

With such an arsenal, letting them take their money, or battling it out and occupying them; Naturally, they were more interested in the latter.

The two rebel groups made a decision, after you tried one thing, I’ll try another.

Attack Zhou City!

Unite to fight!

The distribution issue could wait until the fight was over. Anyway, with both their swords, even if the Third Prince wanted to muscle in, he still couldn’t beat their cooperating rebel groups.

The strategists who have been urging them to strike Zhou City for so long were excited, and they were all trying their best to get their Lords to finish them with one strike.

Among them, the strategist who was the most aggressive and in favor of attacking Zhou City, was so excited that he walked in briskly and immediately made a detailed ‘we should fight this way’ plan that night, prompting the Lord to praise him for his efforts.

That night, the strategist drank a little wine, and the Lord asked personal soldiers around him to send him back to his tent. The drunken strategist leaned against a soldier, mumbling drunken words in his mouth, and his hand even pulled the sleeve of the soldier and called him darling. The people who saw this scene kept laughing, and the Lord couldn’t help laughing after hearing about it. The gentleman strategist had followed him for 4 years and had been planning for him, but he never got married. When they were less busy, it was time to find him a bride.

The personal soldier held the strategist up, all the way to his tent, and when he came out, people outside couldn’t help laughing at the scene. Others joked and asked him if his hands were smooth and tender, otherwise how could he be mistaken for a young lady?

The personal soldier glared angrily at the both of them, and immediately took off.

There was something clenched tightly in his fist. When no one was there, some papers were faintly revealed.

Zhou City has always been the most stable place in these troubled times, because the city gate was wide open, some merchants were still willing to come and do business. It was an ordinary morning, when the city gates were opened, the merchants had led their horses into this city, which had become more and more prosperous in the past 3 years.

Unlike those who scattered to find places to sell things, several carriages came carrying goods. They walked towards the government office with clear goals. Pedestrians weren’t surprised, instead, some merchants looked enviously at their backs.

What else could they say? Everyone has their own lives. It was the same in other cities, they walked around to sell things. Somehow this person was able to find out that the Lord of Zhou City loved fruit. So, he hit the road and came to Zhou City, and directly traded with Zhou City’s government office every time.

People heard that the Lord likes to eat comfortably, the government will also order a lot of them to send to other rebel forces. This profit alone could earn them a lot of money. If there was such a relationship, nothing would be difficult to do in the future.

So jealous ah!

“Father!”

Lin Shiheng was just like an ordinary father sitting in his chair and drinking tea. Lin Second had quickly walked in and handed over the letters in his hand.

“This is the letter that came with a load of fruit.”

Lin Shiheng glanced at the letter marked [for the city Lord only], “Has anyone read this letter?”

Lin Second with a hint of concern, “It’s said that it was checked by several people on the road, and this letter had been opened and read several times. Father, is there any problems? Do you need your son to make arrangements?”

“That’s not necessary.”

With the cold weather, the father, who was wearing more and more layers, took a sip of tea, but his expression was still faint, “This is an ordinary letter.”

“But in the past 3 years, we have never received a letter from there. Why so suddenly …”

“Unwrap it and see.”

Lin Second obediently opened the letter and found that it was indeed a very ordinary letter. It only said that the caravan looked around for the plant called pepper that the Lord wanted to eat, but found nothing. They hoped that the Lord doesn’t blame them. They presented a truckload of fruit as a gift.

Now, he couldn’t understand why such an ordinary letter had to use so many secret tricks, risking the possibility of being discovered, to deliver the letter.

“You are still young, blame your father for not teaching you these things before.”

Lin Shiheng casually took the letter that his son respectfully took and turned it over in his hand.

Lin Second immediately remembered the various aspects concerning the flow of those letters.

Was there anything else in this letter?

For example, a drop of water could reveal words, or it was it a Tibetan poem, or was it necessary to split the words to spell something.

(TNote: Tibetan poem = Poems that have a hidden meaning when a certain character from each line were rearranged.)

He fantasized a lot, but listening to his own father, who was sitting peacefully like a pine tree, who leisurely said…

“The message they want to deliver isn’t in the letter, but in the envelope. Initially, when I was sending them off, there was an agreement that if there was a change, they would write a letter.”

“[I hope that the Lord Lin in the City is personally enlightened] is a joint effort of three parties against us. [the Lord Lin in the City is personally enlightened] is that one party wants to attack my Zhou City, if. As in this letter, the four words [for the city Lord only] are written, then two parties have cooperated and are determined to fight against Zhou City.”

Therefore, even if this letter was read by hundreds of people, it will only be considered as an ordinary letter.

“Where was this cart of fruit purchased from?”

Shocked by his own father’s methods, Lin Second quickly and respectfully answered.

“It seems that this time, the Third Prince is not involved.”

Lin Shiheng chuckled and threw the letter in the incense burner, watching it turn to ash.

“In that case, this is exactly what I want.”

Lin Second pondered for a few seconds, “Does Father want to make an alliance with the Third Prince?”

Zhou City has always been secretly strong, but in the end, it has never been in battle. If they had to go up against tow forces, their chances of winning weren’t high.

“Alliance?”

Lin Shiheng looked at his son in disgust, “Why would I want to be in an alliance with him?”

He tilted his head slightly and his lips curled up playfully.

“He has been left out. Aren’t we going to battle now? How much longer do we have to wait?”

“Pass on my order. The fifteenth son of the Third Prince’s men led an attack to assassinate the Lord of Zhou City, causing the death of my eldest son, Lin Guangyao.”

“I, Zhou City’s Lord, and him, will never rest until one of us dies!”
