At this moment, under the night sky, Xue Rang stood on the city wall, gazing northward.
"Standing in this direction, isn't it still a bit unfamiliar?"
A middle-aged man appeared behind Xue Rang.
"General Nian, you're teasing me," Xue Rang said with a smile.
This man was Nian Yao, known as the first servant under the Regent of Chu.
In Yan, they have Lord Pingye, who rose from a commoner to nobility in just a few years, while Nian Yao, who came from servitude, is a model for the rise within the Chu army.
Especially in a country like Chu, which greatly values lineage and family heritage, Nian Yao's success is even more admirable and precious.
Nian Yao teased Xue Rang about not being used to the direction, meaning that as the former commander of the South Gate of Dacheng, Xue Rang mostly stood on the wall facing south, guarding against the Chu army. Now, he faces north to guard against the Yan people.
"Do you understand the Regent's intentions this time, General Xue?"
