Evil Consort Wants to Remarry - C294 meaningful
“Greetings Prince Mo.” Xiahou Jian bowed from afar.
Li Hao rushed forward to support Xiahou Jian, “Marshal needs to be so courteous, there’s no prince at the border.”
Xiahou Jian took the opportunity to size up Li Hao.
When he returned to the capital, King Mo had yet to become the king, but it was only the second prince. He did not expect that after not seeing him for a few years, he had already grown to look like a talent, even his words and actions were different from what he had heard.
“A gift cannot be wasted.” Xiahou Jian insisted on bowing.
Li Hao took it when he saw it, and after Xiahou Jian finished bowing, Li Hao also bowed to him.
“Supervisor Li Hao greets Marshal.”
Xiahou Jian accepted his salute, and when Li Hao stood up straight, the two of them smiled at each other, and everything was in silence.
Everyone returned to the reception hall and sat down.
Xiahou Jian first looked at Li Hao.
“I wonder what kind of opinions Your Highness has regarding the use of soldiers.”
When Li Hao heard it, he laughed lightly, “We will follow your lead, Marshal.”
Hearing that, Xiahou Jian was ecstatic, but he said: “If Your Highness has any ideas, just speak your mind, we will discuss first.”
Li Hao looked at Xiahou Jian seriously, “Does marshal think that I is joking?”
After pausing for a moment, Li Hao said sincerely, “Although I is familiar with the military manual, he has also read another historical fact. He learned that a war is not about military affairs, the marshal has always been brilliant and wise, the emperor has repeatedly praised the emperor in the throne room. On the battlefield, the taboo is to give two orders, the order must be given, this is something the General Shi taught to the general, I remember it correctly.”
After Li Hao finished speaking, he turned his face to look at General Shi.
Just as General Shi was immersed in his thoughts, he did not expect Li Hao to suddenly turn around and ask him.
Only then did Li Hao turn his head and look at Marshal Xiahou Jian.
“Marshal, although I has such intentions, he cannot use the lives of his soldiers as a joke. After I has trained for a year and a half, Marshal will think that the I is alright. At that time, it’s not too late to give the I the authority to command.”
Xiahou Jian lost his voice, “Your Highness wants to stay in this bitter cold land for a year or so?”
You know, a lot can happen in a year or so.
Li Hao’s thin lips curved up, “That may not be true. If the marshal captures the Zhennan King tomorrow, perhaps the I will have to escort him back to the capital one day.”
Xiahou Jian laughed bitterly, “Bringing troops into battle, how could it be that easy?”
General Shi nodded his head. After fighting for so many years, he did not dare to speak carelessly.
Li Hao’s expression became heavy, “I remembers that I met the Grand Marshal five years ago. Five years ago, the Grand Marshal only returned to the capital once.
No one could guarantee this.
The air suddenly became silent.
Li Hao waited for a while, then opened his mouth to break the tranquility, “In a year and a half, I being able to grow into a general who leads his troops to war, isn’t like coming here to train in the borders for nothing.”
Xiahou Jian gave Li Hao a deep glance. He was not here to play, he was here to gain experience.
Xiahou Jian pondered for a moment, and then said honestly: “Prince, even though Xiahou is far away at the border, I have heard some private matters regarding the Prince Mo.”
Hearing Xiahou Jian’s words, Li Hao looked up at him, “Oh, how private is that? Do you want I to hide for a while? ”
Shi San, Ding Ding and the others forced themselves not to laugh out loud.
The Marshal Xiahou said this so that he could seek confirmation. If he avoided it, they could discuss further, but to whom would they seek confirmation from?
Xiahou Jian laughed bitterly, “Your highness sure knows how to joke around.”
“My prince has always been open with his words. If the marshal has anything to say, just say it. The king will not blame you. Perhaps there are some things that are unclear, and the prince can even help the marshal make up for it.”
Hearing that, Du Jinse already had a plan, and was afraid that it was because of the affair regarding her, which was why it was so difficult for Xiahou Jian to say it, and waited for Li Hao to ask about it, but who knew that Li Hao would not even give him the chance to.
Xiahou Jian looked at Li Hao, and seeing that Li Hao did not have any intention to stop Du Jinse, he thought for a moment before speaking.
“When I heard that Princess Ming Xia wanted to marry King Mo, but was rejected by King Mo, after getting the news, the Zhennan King became angry from embarrassment, and decided to turn the situation around, there is always a reason why a single person wants to rebel. I just want to know, why did the Duke reject Princess?
Pausing for a moment, Xiahou Jian continued: “You are still going to go to the borders for that girl?”
He knew that he was going to ask about this.
Du Jinse sighed quietly in her heart as she looked at Li Hao.
Li Hao also guessed that this was what Xiahou Jian wanted to ask, and the reason why he answered like that was because he was afraid that Du Jinse would overthink things.
For Du Jinse to say something like that for him, she must understand his intentions.
Li Hao sighed, “I does not know how to answer this question.”
Xiahou Jian squinted, “Could it be that you don’t even know what you’re thinking?”
If these words were spoken, who would believe them?
Li Hao looked straight into Xiahou Jian’s eyes.
At first, I thought that it was because you heard it, but if I said it like that, doesn’t that mean Mo Mo’s reputation as a beauty who would cause disasters?
“When I became the champion, he requested for the Emperor to bestow marriage on me. I believe everyone has heard of the reputation of Princess, of course you all have heard of her reputation, of course you all have heard of him marrying wives. I only wants to marry good wives, and not just wives.”
Li Hao resisted the desire to turn his head and look at Du Jinse.
“I was indeed exhausted by the officials of the imperial court because of the matter with Princess. Escaping far away from the forest is just an unrealistic idea, although he was born with a rebellious nature, there are still people in the imperial court who would like to speak like that, the I is too tired of arguing like this, so he decided to petition the emperor. If he does not capture the Zhennan King and offer it to the emperor, the I will stay at the border and not return.”
Du Jinse lowered her head. Actually, even if she raised her head, others would not be able to see anything if they did not carefully look at her eyes. After all, she had a human-skinned mask on her face.
She really did not expect Li Hao to say such a thing.
She felt that Li Hao was only doing this because of her, but he was afraid that if he said that, she would be scolded as a banshee.
Du Jinse felt her eyes ache. What should she do? She actually had the urge to cry.
“My lord, you must be joking.” Xiahou Jian laughed bitterly.
Catching the Zhennan King was easier said than done.
The Zhennan King had worked with him for many years, and both of them were familiar with each other’s actions. It was hard to say who would win and who would lose, but it might even take them eight to ten years.
Li Hao retracted the faint smile on his face, “I was not joking.”
He felt that doing something for the common people was more meaningful than being drunk in the capital.
