How co!
How could it be this person and not myself!
Li Yuheng was shocked and angry when his plan failed.
Then Zhang Yuan and another man nad Zhang Wen were suddenly called out. Although they were puzzled, they still followed the commander-in-chief’s order and walked out of the team.
“The Ninth Prince said he wanted to learn how to ride a horse. You two should go and teach him how to ride a horse.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuan and Zhang Wen were both surprised and happy.
Being able to get close to an honorable person, and a prince at that, is a blessing that many people would ask for. Even a fool would know that being able to show up in front of an honorable person is simply a godsend. There are nearly 10,000 Black Armor Guards, and how many of them can have this opportunity?
Zhang Yuan is just honest, but there is nothing wrong with his brain.
Zhang Yuan and Zhang Wen hurriedly accepted the order: “Thank you, Commander-in-Chief. We will go now!”
“Yes. Oh, by the way, don’t let the Ninth Prince stay too far away from the team, or the Emperor will bla you. Also, you must be careful when teaching the Ninth Prince to ride a horse, and you must not let the Ninth Prince make any mistakes. Do you understand?” The Ninth Prince is now the Emperor’s most beloved prince. If anything goes wrong, not to ntion the two of them, he will also be the one to suffer the consequences.
The commander-in-chief had to remind him.
Zhang Yuan and Zhang Wen couldn’t help but feel nervous at the mont.
After seeing the two off, the commander-in-chief originally planned to leave, after all, he still had things to do.
But when he accidentally saw Li Yuheng standing nearby, the commander-in-chief subconsciously stopped.
It’s just like a leader’s attitude towards his most outstanding employee. No matter what the employee’s level is, at least the leader will have an impression of him or her.
Li Yuheng was one of these people in the Black Armor Guards. Although his rank was not high, he was hardworking, dedicated, and smart, so it was inevitable that he was rembered by the commander-in-chief.
Seeing that the other party lost the election, the commander-in-chief was actually quite regretful.
How co such an outstanding young man failed to catch the eye of the Ninth Prince?
The commander-in-chief sighed inwardly, and then couldn’t help asking, “I heard… you have a younger brother with you?”
Li Yuheng was such a smart man. When he heard this, he imdiately understood why he was not chosen by the Ninth Prince, and why the Ninth Prince ignored him even after the maid was obviously moved.
Li Yuheng had planned everything, but he had forgotten to take his younger brother Li Jun into account.
He forgot that in the eyes of others, he was such a burden raising a younger brother all by himself without the support of his parents.
Especially after the parents are gone, according to custom, the elder brother not only has to raise his younger brother, but also has to find a way to marry and have children for his younger brother. The eldest sister-in-law is like a mother, which ans that the girl naturally becos a mother when she marries into the family. In this case, how many girls’ families would be willing to marry their daughters into the family?
But in fact, just as Ye Shuo guessed, Li Jun was indeed not Li Yuheng’s biological brother, and he was not even a concubine’s son. He was just the son of his father’s good friend.
This can be seen from their nas. It is impossible for brothers to have such different nas.
Li Yuheng was born into a wealthy family. His father was a businessman and was one of the richest businessn in Jizhou City. In his early years, Li Yuheng’s life was extrely comfortable and happy.
However, the good tis did not last long. One ti when my father was doing business, he accidentally offended soone he should not have offended, and as a result, he brought disaster upon the whole family, and even his good friends who had co to help him were implicated.
The two families tried their best and only managed to save their own children.
From then on, the seventeen-year-old Li Yuheng began a life of exile with the son of his father’s friend. In order to avoid being hunted down, Li Yuheng changed his own na “Yang” and his father’s friend’s na “Hu” to an unfamiliar na “Li”.
Thanks to the connections left by his father, he was able to regain his household registration in Shangjing City, and he and Li Jun, who was only ten years old, beca brothers in the eyes of others.
However, when the disaster of extermination of the family occurred, Li Yuheng was already seventeen years old. How could he forget such a deep hatred?
During the two years of wandering, Li Yuheng tried almost every possible way. He even thought about practicing martial arts. As long as he could kill that dog official, he would not lose out.
But unfortunately, at the age of seventeen, he had already missed the best opportunity to practice martial arts. Even if he tried harder, he could only achieve an upper-middle level and could not even break into the governnt office.
As for studying, not everyone can beco famous. The imperial examination is held every three years and has to go through four stages: the provincial examination, the tropolitan examination, and the palace examination. Even if you pass the exam and beco the top scorer, you still have to start as a minor official and then slowly move up. Ordinary people have no way to stand out from so many people.
Finally, Li Yuheng turned his attention to the army.
If there is any place where one can be promoted the fastest, it must be joining the army. What’s more, the dog official is a civil servant and cannot reach the military generals. The military camp is an excellent umbrella of protection for Li Yuheng.
So Li Yuheng signed up for the Black Armor Guard without hesitation. The reason why he fought so hard was because he wanted to avenge the extermination of his family.
What Li Yuheng had not expected was that as the current emperor’s reign lasted longer, his thods of governing the country beca more rigorous, and with his diligence and hard work, the chaos around him gradually disappeared.
Without so much chaos, there wouldn’t be so many achievents, and Li Yuheng wouldn’t be promoted.
Three full years passed, and Li Yuheng barely got the rank of lieutenant of benevolence and bravery, a ninth-rank officer.
At this rate, Li Yuheng felt that he would never be able to get revenge in this lifeti. With nowhere else to turn, he could only think of another way.
After so many years of torture day and night, Li Yuheng was on the verge of madness. Li Yuheng no longer cared about anything, and he even secretly swore that as long as he could get revenge, he would do anything and accept anything, and he was willing to pay any price.
Hence, he looked back just now.
But in the end, he still failed because of his father’s good friend’s son, his younger brother.
Maybe God is so cruel. Li Yuheng felt completely hopeless for a mont and suddenly could not see any hope.
Li Yuheng uttered “hmm” in a daze. The commander-in-chief did not get any other response for a long ti. He sighed and left.
After all, he was just an ordinary guard, and it was good enough that the commander-in-chief could ask him one more question.
Li Yuheng didn’t even know when he left. By the ti Li Yuheng reacted, the commander-in-chief and Zhang Yuan were gone. The remaining black-armored guards looked at him with strange eyes.
After all, in the eyes of other Black Armor Guards, Li Yuheng’s expression was not right when he heard that Zhang Yuan and the other were selected. What else could this be but jealousy?
Normally, this guy is like this, always liking to show off in front of the superiors and thinking he is smart. Now, the Ninth Prince would rather choose Zhang Yuan and Zhang Wen than him.
The other side.
Ye Shuo thought about it and always felt that sothing was wrong.
Apart from Li Yuheng’s younger brother, there was also sothing strange about his parents.
Normally speaking, if parents died of illness, it would be written as death from illness. If they died of an accident, the word “accident” would also be written. This is a normal human reaction.
Such an incomplete story is extrely rare, unless… there are special circumstances, and then they choose to be vague and pass it over.
Of course, all this is just speculation. No matter what, this person nad Li Yuheng is not normal.
Just as Ye Shuo was making all kinds of assumptions in his mind, the commander-in-chief quickly ca over with a horse.
This horse was carefully selected by the commander-in-chief based on his own experience. It has a docile temperant and is especially suitable for beginners like the Ninth Prince.
It’s the kind that won’t necessarily get angry even if you hit it with two sticks.
Ye Shuo looked at the chestnut horse in front of him whose mane had turned white and seed to be about to be buried in the ground. After a mont of silence, he slowly shifted his gaze to the commander-in-chief’s face.
The commander-in-chief was sowhat embarrassed, but there was nothing he could do. The Ninth Prince was still young, and was well-bred in the palace. He had a noble status and was favored. Shouldn’t the commander-in-chief be more careful?
Even if sothing unexpected happened, this old horse couldn’t run fast anyway, so it was unlikely that anything would go wrong.
The commander-in-chief hasn’t seen this old horse running wildly for nearly two years, so he chose it because it is safe.
Ye Shuo was such a respectful person to the elderly and loving the young that he was too embarrassed to climb onto the back of this old horse.
“…How about this, I’ll lead it to get used to it and walk around twice first.”
The commander-in-chief naturally had no objection at all.
“Zhang Yuan, Zhang Wen, His Highness’s safety is in your hands.”
Hearing this, Zhang Yuan and Zhang Wen’s expressions suddenly beca serious: “Yes!”
Just like that, Emperor Jingwen, who was having a rare mont of free ti in the imperial carriage pulled by six horses and was drinking tea and playing chess with Pri Minister He, watched his son leading a horse, that was so old that it couldn’t be any older, pass by his carriage.
Emperor Jingwen: “…”
He Xiang: “…”
The conversation stopped abruptly, and both of them paused.
“What is this little bastard doing there??”
Wang Ziquan: “Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince said he wanted to practice riding.”
What a bullshit riding practice! He was just leading a horse around!
How does he manage to look so careless no matter what he does?
Emperor Jingwen has now reached the point where he feels upset whenever he sees him.
“Tell , he’s been doing this all day long, can’t he just be quiet for a while?”
Looking at the emperor who was playing chess and muttering unconsciously at the sa ti, He Xiang was tactful enough to remain silent and just listened to the emperor complaining quietly.
On the other side, Ye Shuo didn’t know that he was in the eyes of his cheap father just because he was leading a horse. He led the horse around for a long ti and felt that the horse’s physical fitness was not bad, not as weak as he imagined, so he climbed up with the help of Zhang Yuan and Zhang Wen.
After observation, I found that Zhang Yuan was indeed the kind of person who didn’t talk much but was very responsible. He always focused on the reins in his hand and was always alert to the movents of the horse.
As for Zhang Wen, he talked a lot, and he was the one doing most of the talking along the way.
Not long after Ye Shuo got on his horse, he ran into Li Yuheng who was returning from patrol.
Sure enough, Ye Shuo found that his entire aura had changed.
It was just a small failure, so there shouldn’t be such a big reaction.
The reason why Ye Shuo paid so much attention to him was because this person was working hard and had a resu that was obviously different from others, instead of simply relying on nepotism and his own face.
Based on this, Ye Shuo felt that the other party was worth testing, and he would not give up on him just because he saw that he was scheming.
Now that his parents are gone, there is no such thing as parental expectations or family anticipation. I just don’t know why he is so eager to climb up.
After all, people who are born ambitious are still a minority. Most people first need external forces to push them before they have the motivation to move forward.
Li Yuheng noticed that the Ninth Prince passed by his team, and according to the rules, he subconsciously lowered his head.
Just when Li Yuheng thought that the Ninth Prince would leave without looking away, he heard a voice suddenly coming from above –
“So it’s you.”
“Well, look up.”
Li Yuheng was very sure that when he turned around, the Ninth Prince must have seen him, so he was not so surprised that he suddenly spoke to him.
Li Yuheng did not dare to disobey and did as he was told subconsciously.
The next mont, he heard the Ninth Prince looking at himself, talking to himself as if sighing and regretful.
“Oh, everything is good, except why there is a younger brother…”
Li Yuheng clenched his fists.
Before he could reply, Ye Shuo asked again: “By the way, let ask you, is your brother… your biological brother?”
Li Yuheng has never heard of this question since the household registration was changed. Could it be that the Ninth Prince discovered sothing? !
The flash of panic in Li Yuheng’s eyes did not escape Ye Shuo’s eyes. Ye Shuo was just asking casually, but he didn’t expect that he could guess it right.
You can’t tell too much to soone as smart as Li Yuheng. If you tell him too much, he will soon know that you are interested in him.
It would be bad if the guest becos the host.
Without giving Li Yuheng ti to react, Ye Shuo casually waved his hand, seeming a little impatient: “Forget it, whether he is your biological brother or not, I only want to ask you one question, can you send your brother away?”
“If you send your brother away, I will let you marry the maidservant next to my mother. How about that?”
The tone was full of dandy arrogance, as if he didn’t care about the other person’s flesh and blood relationship at all.
On one side is the great revenge for the extermination of the family, and on the other side is the son of his father’s best friend, who had died because of working hard for their family.
Faced with such a choice, Li Yuheng’s face turned pale after a few words.
