Actually, rather than saying we went to his house, its more accurate to say we captured him in a pub.
HahHe is still the sa as ever, huh.
The bear guy heaved a deep sigh when he heard Li Yong, and it sounded like the groan of a bear.
Still, there was no hint regarding the identity of the bear man in their conversation.
Ahm, excuse , may I know who this esteed person is?
Yui i gulped her food, then softly whispered. Li Yong was taken aback.
Oh, didnt I tell you? This is General Li, of Defense.
His status was totally unexpected.
Yui i heard about this General of Defense, but wasnt he the strongest person in the present military troops?
There were higher ranked military positions such as supre commander during tis of crisis such as wars, but because the present era was peaceful, the army was directly under the emperors control. spearheaded that army, so he was considered to have the highest position in the military.
The current emperor wasnt interested in expanding his territories by raid and invasion, so that ant he didnt receive any special positions.
Yui i naturally knew about these things thanks to the information from the gossipy court ladies who dread of marrying into wealth. They would talk about the most successful people with great gusto even without being asked.
This man, who was supposedly at the pinnacle of the army, was casually pouring himself a drink and gulping it down right before Yui is eyes.
Yui i was more shocked than when she t the emperor for the first ti.
At any rate, she already expected that she would sooner or later bump into him if she was fortunate enough, because the Inner Palace was his ho.
However, people would only et generals in the battle-field, wasnt that so?
So what was this person doing here, clad in the garb of an ordinary soldier?
Yui i was flustered, and she hurriedly tried to pay her respects to this unexpectedly distinguished person. However, she was holding the soup bowl on one hand and the baozi on the other, and they were in the way, so she beca even more flustered on her own.
Calm down, put your food on the table first.
Dont be too formal, Im just an ordinary drunkard here.
The bear man General Li waved his hand as he said that, as if to cover up Li Yongs advice. Yui i put the soup bowl on the table promptly, then she timidly asked General Li.
Ahm, pardon for asking, but may I know what are you, a distinguished person, being the General of Defense, doing here?
He couldve drank wine in a better place instead of the cafeteria for the ordinary soldiers.
It might be weird saying this, but the liquor here was the cheap kind.
General Li grinned, as if he read Yui is mind as she wondered about it.
Hey, for booze, it doesnt really matter what youre drinking, but who youre drinking it with, you know? If I go outside to drink good wine, the guys will go Lord General, Lord General nonstop. Too noisy.
He had a point there.
Apparently, different kinds of people would flock over him, and he didnt like that.
So youre popular, Lord General?
Yui i wanted to confirm. Li Yong nodded.
In the capital, yes. The only guys who dont know anything are those who just ca from the country like you.
It seed that Yui is country bumpkin background was exposed because she didnt know who the general was.
It was the truth, and there was nothing to be ashad of, so Yui i didnt care.
So? Who are you, lass?
In the end, General Li also asked about her, but Yui i didnt want to introduce herself as much as possible to the higher-ups. She wasnt sure about the persons connections, and her personal history might be discovered.
I am just a humble person not worthy of naming myself before you, Lord General, but just as you said earlier, I am indeed a low-ranking court lady.
Yui i thus explained, and Li Yong didnt have any complaints like How can you be so rude!.
General Li, on the other hand, seed to have thought of sothing, because he leaned closer to peer on her face.
The feeling of being in the presence of a bear beca stronger when he drew his face closer to hers.
General Li suddenly hit his knee.
Hoh? Dont tell , are you the girl Ive been hearing so much about lately, the one who always raises a ruckus?
What a weird revelation to make.
Did I ever make a ruckus? ?
Im sure you do.
Li Yong answered Yui is question with no hesitation whatsoever.
