The Emperor felt that if he died one day, it must have been Xiao Ji who angered him to death.

The three thousand beauties in the harem couldn’t drain his dragon body, but Xiao Ji could easily pierce his dragon heart with a few words!

The Emperor immediately pulled a long face.

Old Marquisʼs face also darkened.

This Marquis Xuanping was a modest gentleman when he didn’t speak, but he was a rascal once he opened his mouth!

Marquis Xuanping turned his head and found the Emperor and his entourage. His handsome face didn’t show the slightest panic and guilt from being caught. He turned around completely, cupped his hands, and made a calm and elegant salute, ”This official has met Your Majesty.”

Truthfully, even the civil officials couldn’t make such an elegant salutation.

The Emperorʼs mind was in turmoil. Even the most beautiful imperial concubines in the harem never made his mood go through so many ups and downs.

When General Ran heard the two words ‘Your Majesty’, he was scared out of his wits. He hurriedly turned around and bowed down deeply.

Old Marquis was standing next to the Emperor, but he was wearing a mask, so General Ran did not recognize him.

General Ran’s mind was also in turmoil. Did he just provoke the other party? Has their conversation just now been heard by His Majesty? Would His Majesty have his and Marquis Xuanping’s heads cut off in anger?

That wasn’t right. Everything was said by Marquis Xuanping alone.

He was just implicated.

General Ran wanted to cry...

Marquis Xuanping said calmly, ”What a coincidence that Your Majesty has come here at this moment. I was just about to train the soldiers. Would you like to observe for a while?”

The Emperorʼs eyes were chilly, ”Oh, I donʼt understand such things.”

Marquis Xuanping smiled indifferently, ”The connoisseur recognizes the artistry while the layman simply enjoys the show.”

Emperor: ”...”

He would really be infuriated to death by this guy sooner or later!

The Emperor was related to Marquis Xuanping by marriage. He married Marquis Xuanpingʼs sister, and Marquis Xuanping also married his sister.

The Emperor often wondered how he became brother-in-laws with this guy?

The reason why he came with Old Marquis today was indeed to watch the military training. He took Old Marquis to the observation deck.

When the masked Old Marquis passed by Marquis Xuanping, Marquis Xuanping hooked the corner of his lips and said, ”Old monkey.”

Old Marquisʼs body shook all over: ”…!!!”

Goddamn, I really want to kill this guy!

Old Marquis was so enraged that he directly swore in his heart and his mask almost fell off.

The ruler and his official went up to the observation deck, and all the soldiers in the military camp were called to the training ground.

There were eight military camps in the capital, both large and small. The original Gu Family army was assigned to different military camps, among which the Gu Family army in Hushan Camp was the most.

Hushan Camp was the territory of the Fast Cavalry Great General. In his early years, the great general had little to do with Old Marquis. Now that the Gu Family army fell into his hands, the consequences could be imagined.

All these years, the Gu Family army had been tormented by him many times, but everyone simply gritted their teeth and didnʼt make any trouble, mainly because of the original words of Old Marquis, ”You are the Gu Family army, but your allegiance is not to me, not to any general, but to His Majesty of the State of Zhao. You are to guard and protect the people of the State of Zhao, including your family and mine.”

That’s right. They still have to guard and protect their own families and the Old Marquisʼs family.

After Gu Changqing entered the Hushan Camp, the Gu Family army became even more forbearing. No matter how the great general deliberately targeted them, none of them became army deserters.

They silently protected Gu Changqing, hoping that one day he could gather all the Gu Family army together like Old Marquis and lead them to fight the enemy again!

It was just that Gu Changqingʼs days in the military camp were not comfortable either.

He sustained the most injuries, so much so that it was impossible to say that he wasn’t deliberately targeted.

Why did the great general ask Marquis Xuanping to come here today? Wasnʼt it because he was worried that the Gu Family army would be full of hostility and create an ugly scene once he appeared?

All the soldiers, including the Gu Family Army, lined up in a uniform manner.

Marquis Xuanping mounted his horse and began todayʼs roll call.

The moment he put on his armor and helmet, the aura of his whole person instantly became powerful, flamboyant, domineering and arrogant!

No one paid any attention to the extremely handsome face under the helmet, for all were shocked by the murderous spirit within his eyes. A very powerful army, and one man who could suppress such an army with thousands of men and horses!

This was a man born for the battlefield. He almost died nine times but survived nine times, won battles and suffered defeats. He could afford to lose, but always went for the win and never backed down!

The Emperorʼs blood was boiling, wishing that he could also go to war. He thought: …Alas, forget it, letʼs not punish him.

Old Marquis looked at the Gu Family army that he had raised for a long time with a complicated look.

The Emperor forcibly withdrew his attention from Marquis Xuanping, turned to Old Marquis and asked, ”Does Old Marquis regret that Zhen put them under the hands of the great general?”

It wasn’t that the Gu Family Army that went into other military camps were doing well and weren’t ostracized at all. However, those under the great generalʼs command had the most harsh situations. Even Gu Changqing ate who knew how many exasperating losses and sufferings.

Old Marquis let out a sigh, ”They are the soldiers of the State of Zhao. Everything they have suffered to this day is for Your Majestyʼs great cause. I have no regrets, and they have no regrets.”

It was only by assigning them to the Fast Cavalry Great General who had little to no contact with him that the Emperor could show that he was deliberately trying to make things difficult for Old Marquis, and that Old Marquis had good reason to be cold to His Majesty.

He cut off relations with His Majesty, and no one suspected that he was still working for his Majesty in secret.

The Emperor also sighed, “Then Zhen will seek an opportunity to transfer Changqing to the first-class imperial guards. I heard that he was accidentally injured during training years ago, and there were still many such cases.”

Even though the Emperor knew that Gu Changqing was unlikely to complain to Marquis Gu, he also didnʼt deliberately pretend that everything was going well.

A trace of complexity flashed through Old Marquisʼs eyes, ”The battlefield is far more cruel than the military camp. If he canʼt even bear this setback, how can he lead his troops to fight in the future? Your Majesty and this humble official both know that a war is bound to break out soon.”

That’s right, there would be another war, and that day would come sooner or later.

Right now, every extra minute of training would help increase the possibility of survival on the battlefield.

The great general would never really blatantly kill Gu Changqing even if he targeted him again. The real enemy was the one who wouldn’t be shown any mercy.

At this point, it was difficult for the Emperor to say anything more.
