From the mont Ji Youze entered the Palace to be the Emperor’s companion, he has been constantly restraining his facial expressions.
His joys and sorrows are hidden even deeper than those of the Emperor himself.
Yet despite this, at this mont, he still couldn’t conceal the excitent in his heart.
"You can think about it carefully, and once you’ve figured it out, just tell Suisui yourself."
Ji Youyuan patted his shoulder, implying sothing profound.
"For over ten years, has he... would he still rember that he has several sons?"
Hearing Ji Youze’s words, Ji Youyuan felt utterly helpless.
"Do you think his children are just so of his nurous underlings under his command?
Can he forget just because he wants to?"
Listening to Ji Youyuan’s words, Ji Youze surprisingly had no rebuttal.
But thinking about it again felt wrong, and suddenly a smile appeared on his usually expressionless face.
"Big brother, you haven’t seen him for years either. Why don’t we et him together?"
Ji Youyuan: "..."
Taking a deep breath, Ji Youyuan hurriedly cast aside his brother’s extravagant smile.
"I am not going to lead soldiers in battle, what do I need to see him for?"
This was purely passing the buck, everyone missed their father, but everyone was afraid to see him. Over the past ten years, who could ensure that nobody would have changed even a little bit?
"Big brother! Leading soldiers to war is just an excuse you made for , isn’t it?
Clearly, you want to know how he’s doing, but you can’t bring yourself to see him!
As it happens, there is a war in Great Han now. You ca up with so random reason here, just hoping I’d go see him first!
Your little sches are too naive, they’re not going to work on !"
Ji Youyuan: "..." His brothers were indeed all outstandingly cunning!
On closer thought, it seed only the seventh brother listened to him a little bit more.
Even if deceived, there’s still a silly look about him.
Hmm, next ti deceive the seventh brother!
Ji Youyuan didn’t get his way with Ji Youze, so his thoughts imdiately turned to Ji Youzhi.
A soldier ca running in, hurriedly bowing towards Ji Youze.
"Eighth Young Master, I’ve inquired about everything. Over there in Xiling, there indeed are very suspicious elents.
It appears that within Hertz’s military camp, there’s another force."
"Another force?"
Ji Youze hadn’t spoken yet, and Ji Youyuan was already puzzled.
The soldier, hearing Ji Youyuan’s question, couldn’t help but stare at him, cautiously glancing at Ji Youze, seeming as if he had caused trouble by barging in and pouring out everything without checking if there was anyone else present.
Now...
"No worries, he is my elder brother, tell the news you’ve gathered one by one!"
Seeing the soldier’s expression, Ji Youze knew what he was worried about, so he quickly explained.
"So it’s the eldest young master Ji!"
The soldier hurriedly bowed to greet Ji Youyuan.
Then he recounted how he disguised himself, mingled into the Xiling Army, and carefully gathered information.
"Today, Eighth Young Master sent to investigate Hertz’s reputation in Xiling. At first, I didn’t know where to inquire, so I had to disguise myself and posed as a Xiling soldier to enter Hertz’s military camp, pretending to be a handyman and quietly inquired."
As the soldier spoke, Ji Youyuan and Ji Youze both listened quietly. When he suddenly stopped, the brothers couldn’t help but eagerly press him for more details.
"So, what about Hertz’s conduct? Is there anything questionable about him?"
