...
In the end, Wang Shouzhe was unable to escape that disaster.
The Water Moon Celestial Pavilion has gradually beco an indelible point in Wang Shouzhe’s life mory.
And the uncertainty of Liua Ruoling’s appearance added an elent of thrill to his seemingly serene life, occasionally bringing him "scares" or "surprises".
However, this process usually involved being startled first, then surprised, and then startled again... The complex emotions it brewed within Wang Shouzhe truly made him sigh at the whims of fate.
Five days later.
Wang Shouzhe and Liua Ruolan returned to their cozy family courtyard, resuming their warm yet peaceful daily life as if that night of intense conflict had never occurred.
The clansn who were shocked by the news of the Patriarch couple’s great battle that night, although secretly curious about the outco, sensibly refrained from asking too much.
After all, according to so clansn who went to report and consult work, the Patriarch’s face seed sowhat pale, and his body appeared slightly weak, likely having suffered so losses.
Therefore, the clansn, who cherished the Patriarch, deeply buried this matter in their hearts, simultaneously resolving to ensure the family children were well-educated, so the Patriarch wouldn’t have to worry so much—he had it too hard.
On this day.
It was no different from usual.
Only, there was a mysterious woman in Wang Shouzhe’s study.
She wore a won’s Black Tortoise battle skirt in shades of water and blue, her figure was curvaceous and delicate. Her hair was bound at one-third, her face covered by a mysterious veil, a long sword slung on her back, exuding both a heroic and celestial aura.
The most unsettling for Wang Shouzhe was that the space between her brows bore a subtle resemblance to Liyao, even her small accessories were almost identical.
"Prince Hao hails from the line of Your Majesty’s second legitimate son. Although this line isn’t particularly prosperous, it does include a prince and over a dozen county princes..." The mysterious woman was reporting her intelligence while noticing Wang Shouzhe’s distraction, and couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow, "Patriarch, I am briefing you on intelligence work, please focus."
"..." Wang Shouzhe’s eyelid twitched, unable to resist grumbling, "Wang i, dressed like that, how can I concentrate?"
This mysterious woman was precisely the Wang Family’s most remarkable Household General — Wang i.
"Patriarch, this is currently the most popular won’s attire in Gui Long City." Wang i flicked her hair, speaking with composure, "Ever since Miss Liyao swept through the Upper Capital City, unrivaled among peers, her style has beco all the rage. This subordinate only hoped to ease the Patriarch’s longing for his beloved daughter; do not let your mind wander or entertain undue thoughts."
In an instant.
Wang Shouzhe’s brow twitched, feeling an urge to throw her out. What kind of twisted thought was this?
"Get to the main point."
Wang Shouzhe took a sip from the teacup, forcibly suppressing the urge to hit soone.
Every ti Wang i ca to report, she had a different outfit, always leaving him at a loss. This ti she had dressed as Liyao, what next, to change into Ruolan?
Such antics almost made Wang Shouzhe forget her original appearance.
Wait a mont...
Wang Shouzhe’s brows slightly furrowed, falling into contemplation.
What did Wang i originally look like again?
"Prince Hao exhibited outstanding talent and powerful bloodlines from a young age, undergoing rigorous training within the Military System. Being a strategic genius, repeatedly turning adverse battles in his favor at crucial junctures, he earned the title of ’Little War God’, deeply adored by the military within the system." Wang i reported solemnly.
While listening, Wang Shouzhe reviewed the intelligence on the papers, frowning, "This person not only has aspirations to govern, but is also a military genius. Coupled with his extraordinary background, he truly sounds like an ideal candidate for the Great Emperor."
"Indeed," Wang i nodded, "Prior to this, although the Struggle of the Imperial Sons had not comnced, Prince Hao’s support within both the Imperial Family and Military System was exceedingly high, far surpassing Prince Kang as it stands. But before the Struggle of the Imperial Sons began, he happened to pursue an enemy army deep into the Outer Domain Battlefield, where he unfortunately was ambushed and t his end there. Without this, the current Struggle would have been void of suspense."
"His record and character, both seem comndable," Wang Shouzhe examined Prince Hao’s past in detail, analyzing his personality, "His spirit seems to harbor ambitions reminiscent of a great strategist; should he beco a Great Emperor, Prince Kang and Prince Anjun would pale in comparison. No wonder Prince Anjun holds him in such high esteem."
Previously, when Prince Anjun ntioned his "Elder Brother Prince Hao", Wang Shouzhe took note and instructed Wang i to investigate.
Accustod to leveraging intelligence and anticipating moves, Wang Shouzhe would naturally not overlook such significant information. Especially given that Prince Hao evidently played a substantial role in Prince Anjun’s growth.
"Can we ascertain how he fell on the Outer Domain Battlefield?" Wang Shouzhe half closed his eyes, rhythmically tapping the table with his knuckles, "There are so doubts in this matter. Based on the intelligence derived from his past battles, it’s evident that Prince Hao had a penchant for taking risks and frequently employed unconventional strategies. Yet his plans were ticulously conceived, and he was well aware of the Outer Domain Battlefield’s perils; unless facing enormous gains, he wouldn’t easily venture into danger."
"Patriarch, regarding Prince Hao, Emperor Longchang has already issued strict orders forbidding discussion, with intelligence about that battle under lockdown," Wang i stated helplessly, "The ti you granted was too short. If allowed more ti to investigate slowly, perhaps so findings might erge."
