"Yes... It is quite red isn't it..." Ba Zeng glanced down at the carpet beneath him, then looking back up at Lu Su.
"Business you say?! You're hired, now please if you'd like to inspect the carpet some more step to the side, so other visitors can come through."
Ba Zeng smiled briefly then left.

”Sir, Lord Ma Chao is dead. Shu killed him, along with your man on the field.”
Jiang Wei nodded and dismissed the messenger. It was dire news, but nevertheless news he had always expected to hear, it did not alarm, it did not surprise, it merely enforced his own beliefs in the so called ‘warriors’ of this world, that they were as mortal as any other man. Against the forces of Shu, Wu and Wei, whose forces relied on their power, the way Ma Chao died made Jiang Wei smile as sadistic it may seem under the circumstances.
Boyue was far different from the times he spent with Zhuge Liang, reading books and learning first hand from his mentor about tactics, those times had been and past. That quiet, pleasant young man was no more, instead a mature, darker and merciless man stood in his shoes. He was the Serpent of Tian Shui, the enemy found him impossible to capture, and when you least expected he would bite, and just like the venom of a snake, he would slowly and painfully paralyse and destroy an enemy’s forces.
”My Lord, the mighty Ma Chao the Splendid is dead, his spirit now finds peace in the Heavens.”
It was a short time later that he spoke, now walking in front of Ba Zeng, his lord and ruler. Wei was loyal to Ba Zeng, when he needed a place to go, to be considered worthy of leading an army, Zen took him in with arms wide open. He would be eternally grateful for the chances he had been given so far, and he repaid it every day with commitment, loyalty and enthusiasm.
”I fear my subordinate was not quick enough to intercept Ma Chao, and an untimely end was brought for the pair of them.”
From playing second fiddle to the likes of Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, Jiang Wei was now a personal advisor to his lord Ba Zeng, he was someone people looked up to, admired, and even feared. As if on cue, Jiang Wei showed his importance as a member of the court handed him a scroll. He took a quick glance at the scroll as he unravelled it. He shook his head and sighed before rolling it back up, it could wait.
”But indeed, it shows us at least one thing. Shu intend to destroy Wei at Xu Chang, they were ruthless in getting rid of Ma Chao, and I have no doubt they will have high confidence in taking over the city.” He paused before delivering his final words on the matter. ”Both Shu and Wu have large egos in their highest ranks, they will want to be the force that finds victory, and if not during, then after, I can see Shu and Wu going to war against one another. It all depends on their control and diplomatic relations I guess.”
He bowed and saluted, with the fist of his left hand placed into his right hand’s palm in common courtesy. He would not speak, unless his lord wished him to carry on, or added anything
