Rebirth: Degenerate Slave Abuses Tyrant

It was only after resting a while that Luo Wei went to see Luo Qi. Conversational and good-natured as usual, no one else realized that he’d broken the tip off of one of his fingers.

At night, Luo Wei called Ten into his tent and handed him a letter, asking him to deliver it to the emperor.

Ten was more worried about Luo Wei. Luo Wei’s wounds had struck fear into Ten when he came back from Ye Qie. Ten was honestly too afraid that something else would happen to Luo Wei.

“The battle is almost at an end,” Luo Wei comforted Ten, “Relax, Ten, I’m not going to rush into battle again. This letter is very important, you have to deliver it personally to His Imperial Majesty.”

It was only after this that Ten left, traveling through the night for the capital.

On the morning after, Si Ma Zhu Xie sent people to the camp, passing on his agreement to the terms posed by Greater Zhou.

Luo Qi didn’t think that Si Ma Zhu Xie would agree to his terms to readily, he threw a look at Luo Wei, who sat in a lower seat next to him.

“This is great news,” Luo Wei was looking at the messenger, “We can all leave after the treaties have been exchanged.”

Sure enough, the army of Northern Yan packed up and left that very afternoon, leaving behind all of their equipment and resources.

“Could something have gone wrong in their ranks?” Luo Qi muttered to himself.

Luo Wei was beside him, “Who knows?”

Off to the side, Liu Wu Sheng was mired in a wave of anxiety. Si Ma Zhu Xie wouldn’t let them off this easily, who knows how the prince of Northern Yan would deal with Long Xuan! Aside from that, he’d brought soldiers to Yun Guan this time without being able to accomplish a single thing. How was he supposed to face Long Xuan and his father when he gets back?

Luo Wei smiled, “I thought we’d have to fight for a while yet, but I didn’t think my big brother would be this ferocious and beat the soldiers of Northern Yan back so quickly.”

Liu Wu Sheng followed as well with a few words of praise for Luo Qi.

Faced with praise, Luo Qi could only toss a smile back at Liu Wu Sheng.

Luo Wei spoke up suddenly, “Big brother, I want to take an excursion outside of the camp, is that okay?”

Luo Qi asked, “Where are you off to now?”

Luo Wei answered, “I’ve got no interest in watching our soldiers loot the resources Northern Yan left after them, though the snowy landscapes here at Mount Wu are quite pretty, I want to go and take a look around.”

“Snowscapes?” Liu Wu Sheng said, “The third young master still has the heart to go and look at snowscapes?”

“Even though we drew a truce in this battle,” Luo Wei said, “It feels like we Greater Zhou have come out on top. I’m feeling rather chipper about that right now and want to take an excursion to see the natural splendors outside of the camp, is that against any military rules?”

“No one’s going to stop you if you go,” Luo Qi said, “But the army of Northern Yan had only just retreated. I worry something would happen if you went right now. Xiao Wei, wait a few days and I’ll go with you, okay?”

Liu Wu Sheng joked in a way that felt more like a jab than a joke, “Commander Luo, the two of you sure have a strong brotherly bond. But as the commander of the army, could you just leave camp for personal reasons like that?”

As soon as Liu Wu Sheng finished speaking, Luo Qi’s followers all glared daggers at the general. This guy was clearly saying that their commander was putting his personal matters ahead of his duties! Liu Wu Sheng’s followers weren’t happy either. They’ve all followed young master Liu all the way from the capital. Most of them haven’t even managed to earn any merits after fighting an entire war, meaning they’d come for nothing. They were just worrying about not having an outlet for their low spirits. Seeing that Luo Qi’s followers were glaring at them and squaring up, they naturally glared right back.

Luo Wei chuckled aloud, “Big brother Liu, I’m here as an acting military supervisor. Looking around at this and that is a part of my duties. If big brother Liu was interested in coming along, I’d be happy to have you accompany me out of the camp for a stroll.”

Liu Wu Sheng had been taken down another notch. This little kid from the Luo family was pulling his status as the military supervisor now, what else could he say to that? All Luo Wei had to do was say he’s going out to inspect the camp’s defenses to shut you up.

“Big brother,” Luo Wei stood and addressed Luo Qi, “I’ll be just outside of the camp, not too far, and I’ll make sure to return before it gets dark.”

Luo Qi waved his hand in assent. If he didn’t allow Luo Wei out right now, he’d be tossed in with Liu Wu Sheng’s camp. “Don’t go too far.” After mulling it over, Luo Qi was still uneasy about it, so he saw Luo Wei out of the camp himself and reminded his younger brother once more to be extra careful.

“Don’t worry, big brother, I’ll be back soon.” Luo Wei mounted his horse and folded his hands in a bow, then lead Wei Lan and a group of his attendants out of the camp.
