Gamashan is an excellent feng shui treasure land, with two big figures burying their families here.

Those two bigwigs.
Among them, Li Longchuan from the Duke Fu of Cailing was his good friend. Chong Xuan Sheng from the Duke Fu of Bo望 begged to be friends with him. The eldest grandson of Prime Minister Yan always treated him to meals and paid the bills...
And another, Zheng Shangming, the son of Zheng from the City Inspection Department, could only be his little follower, attending to him day and night!
Simply terrifying.

At that time, people called them the "Double Pride of Gǎnmǎ Mountain."
After Ganma Mountain, it is difficult to find a grave.
Of course, that's a later story.
And so, on Gǎnmǎ Mountain, the "Gǎnmǎ Mountain Twin Beauties," after a brief windstorm, continued their journey upwards.

The two bearers carrying the coffin grew increasingly spirited, with heads held high and chests puffed out.

Jiang Wang simply walked beside Xu Xiangqian, following his lead.
"Didn't you ask me who that person was just now"
Here is the translated text:>
Xu Xiangqian curled his lips. He was very indifferent, completely nonchalant: "When you want to say it, you will naturally say it."
Please note: I've removed the unnecessary triple angle brackets (>) from your request as they are not part of the text you want translated. Let me know if you have other content you'd like me to translate!
Jiang Wang looked at him with a newfound respect: "I thought you'd get to the bottom of things, it seems you're not so boring after all."
Xu Xiangqian chuckled: "I've seen his face and know his surname is Zheng. He seems to have some clout in Linzi. I'll just ask Li Longchuan, won't that make things clear Why bother being controlled by you here"
...
Xu Fang's funeral was very simple. The grave had been chosen long ago, and the grave pit had also been dug in advance. The pallbearers lowered the coffin, and Xu Xiangqian, as the person in charge of the funeral, threw two handfuls of soil into the grave pit, and that was the end of the ceremony.
Afterward, just fill the hole with soil.
No matter how well one lives, in death they are but a mound of yellow soil.
Life and death, decay and flourishing.

Before the grave stood a blank tombstone, bare and rather lonely.
Xu Xiangqian said: “I’ve thought for a long time and don’t know how to write an inscription, so I left it blank here. What do you think”
This is indeed a difficult thing. There are many things that cannot be written about Xu Fang. And without writing those things, he would not be complete at all.
Jiang Wang thought for a moment and said, "Just write the two characters 'Xu Fang'."

His name was his life, needing no further explanation.
Xu Xiangqian pondered for a moment before nodding. Then he half-squatted down, using his finger as a brush, and wrote Xu Fang's name on the blank tombstone with flying dragon and snake strokes.
Compared to the messy scrawls on the walls of Qingya Villa, these two characters were written with a calm and steady hand, exuding an air of righteousness.
Jiang Wang's fingers moved, and the flame began to flicker.
Four paper figures and lots of paper money were burned in front of the grave.
Turning into green smoke, turning into black ash.
Zheng Shangming left Ganma Mountain drenched in cold sweat. Thinking back on their previous encounter, he felt a growing sense of fear and anger.
The most elite unit in the Qi state was known as the Nine Soldiers. Except for the Heavenly Canopy Army, the remaining eight units were on rotation guarding Linzi.
This year, it's the turn of Zhan Yu Jun.

He concealed his identity and served in the Zan Yu Army, starting as a lowly private. Now, he has risen to the position of squad leader, commanding a hundred men.
There are also some unpleasant things in the military, like petty squabbles and underhanded dealings. Hiding one's identity means these are unavoidable.
For instance, the censor who always looked down on him with disapproval kept finding faults with him in various ways. He endured it again and again.
>
Of course, because I have confidence, I have never looked down.
Otherwise, with his ability, he wouldn't still just be a team regular. He's being held down by the commander above him.

This time, he was supposed to take a vacation back home, but the Vice-Grand Commandant suddenly issued a mission, asking him to track and investigate Jiang Wang, a hero from the Qiyang battlefield who hailed from Qingyang Town.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
It is logical that Jiang Wang, not being from Qi, would be suspected.
>
When he received the mission, even though he wasn't a scout by training and wasn't particularly skilled at tracking, he didn't give it much thought. He simply assumed it was another instance of being targeted.
Only after he truly fought Jiang Wang and felt the real possibility of death did his heart stir.

Jiang Wang mentioned Wang Yi Wu, who mentioned Chong Xuan Zun, he didn't refute any of it. In fact, it was to hide himself and mislead Jiang Wang. Afterwards, he had to follow Jiang Wang and kept thinking about a way to escape. As for being exposed later by that ruffian on Ma Shan, it was a very ugly accident.
But when I think about it calmly, the more I think, the more I feel... it's very possible!
He had heard of the dispute between Chongxuan Zun and Chongxuan Sheng, but he didn't care much, because neither side had anything to do with him.
However, this mission was rather peculiar.
Although the Zhan Yu Army was responsible for guarding the capital, was it necessary for them to independently investigate Jiang Wang Shouldn't Qi Ting have done this before the investiture ceremony
More importantly, why was he chosen to do this He's never had any experience with investigations and isn't particularly skilled at it. Why send him when there are others more suited for the task He was already due for a vacation after all.
Even, the person who prepared his costume, why would they make such a low-level mistake of wearing the same shoes Is it simply because of carelessness Such a coincidence
Now, let's reverse the logic. What if Jiang Wang had lost his hand today and killed him First of all, his own father, the esteemed Northern Cavalry Commander, would never just let it go.
Of course, this is a good thing for Chongxuan.
>
Therefore, it is quite possible that what Jiang Wang said, that this operation was orchestrated by Wang Yiwu, is true. He was just unaware of the plan beforehand and used as a pawn!
Then there are only two questions left——can Wang Yiwu discover his hidden identity and that he has joined the Zhan Yu army Can Wang Yiwu influence the internal military arrangements of the Zhan Yu army
>
The answers to these two questions are self-evident. Even though he concealed information from almost all his relatives and friends when he joined the army, logically speaking, there wouldn't be too many people who knew about it. But considering Wang Yiwu's influence as a disciple of the military god within the army, it wouldn't be difficult to find out if one really wanted to investigate.

Even though the Heavenly Covering Army and the Slashing Rain Army weren't under the same command, Wang Yiwu had full influence over a general within the Slashing Rain Army.
Of course, there's another possibility: this tracking mission was simply a way for the superior officer to vent his anger against him. He wanted to use Jiang Wang's rising fame to teach him a lesson he would never forget.
Even Jiang Wang's mind was deep, he might have recognized him through some means and deliberately acted that way, leading him to be hostile towards Wang Yiwu. This is not impossible.
Zheng Shangming asked himself, he was not a fool, and he was unwilling to be someone's pawn without knowing why.
He has moved past his anger, but he needs to find the answers in his own way first.
Outside the south city, the Zhanyu Army barracks.
The Zhan Yu army had four garrisons outside Linzi City, stationed in all four directions. Zheng Shangming's unit was located on the south side of the city.
Zheng Shangming's face was grim throughout his journey, not even bothering to change out of his porter's clothes, and he went straight into the military camp.

He rose from the ranks, step by step, becoming a true team leader. He was genuine and never pretended to be something he wasn't. Though his title might not have been high, he was well-respected by everyone.
Upon entering the military camp under his father-in-law's jurisdiction, Zheng Shuming was greeted by numerous soldiers along the way. However, he ignored them all today.
Anyone with a discerning mind immediately realized what was about to happen, whether it was to watch the unfolding drama or rush to inform the General.
Zheng Shangming walked up to the Grand Marshal's tent and before he could raise the curtain, someone had already come out.
This man was Wang, the deputy general who had assigned him the surveillance task, making him his direct superior. He was also the most loyal follower of that general.
Upon seeing Zheng Shangming, he reprimanded him without any politeness: "Zheng Ming! Who allowed you to return to camp during your mission"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But as soon as the words left his mouth, a hand covered it, silencing him.
This is a test.
Within the body, Dao Yuan was instantly sealed.
Zheng Shangming slapped him directly in the face, pushing him inside and parting the curtain.
He himself closely followed, crashing into the military tent!
