Chapter 1405: Chapter 1405: Purpose (1)
Li Zhaoru’s expression changed for a mont, indeed, if Ji Lin were to execute the whole family, then the Li family wouldn’t be spared either…
“But we don’t have much to do with the Ji Family…” Li Mingyin frowned, “Could it be that they really want to find a pretext to condemn us?”
“It seems that the young lady’s understanding is sowhat peculiar.” Gu Qingheng’s eyebrows slightly creased, “I am rely reminding the General, and not here to openly accuse.”
Li Mingyin’s expression stiffened for a mont, and her large eyes also narrowed slightly. This man seed humble and refined, but in reality, he was very sharp. In short, not an easy man to deal with, and of course, a very outstanding man.
Having lived for eighteen years, she had never t such a man before. More beautiful than a woman, yet not at all effeminate, calm and wise, with sharp rhetoric. As for his martial skills, she suddenly very much wanted to test them…
At this mont, an inexplicable turmoil had unwittingly arisen in the girl’s heart, though she had not yet realized it herself.
“General Gu, what exactly do you an by coming here?” Li Minghuan seed to follow Li Mingyin as he entered, an outstanding man with good looks, martial skills, and family background. All of Yong City called him the most eligible bachelor, but it was only upon eting Gu Qingheng that he realized he really amounted to nothing. If the other party were not an enemy of his family, he would truly like to compare with him, be it in talent or martial skills, anything.
At this ti, Ning Yun personally brought in tea and refreshnts with a maid, also eager to hear exactly what had happened.
“Huanhuan, do not be disrespectful.” Li Zhaoru reprimanded in a low voice. By now, he had co to his senses, his mind, previously disturbed by Ji Tong, had finally cald down. Then, he turned to Gu Qingheng and clasped a fist, “General Gu, please do not bla us. It is my fault for spoiling them, my son’s rudeness has made you laugh.”
“No need for such formalities, General Li. In fact, your son and daughter are quite forthright. Since I’ve co, there naturally is a purpose. My intention is actually quite simple. Ji Lin is Ji Lin, and General Li is General Li.” Gu Qingheng still wore that faint smile, “In the face of national justice and right and wrong, I believe that anyone with flesh and blood would have a basic moral bottom line…” he paused slightly, “Isn’t that true, General Li?”
Li Zhaoru’s brows furrowed once again.
“Just before I arrived in Yong City, I happened to receive so news. Would you like to hear it?”
A flash of murderous intent passed through Li Zhaoru’s eyes.
“Twenty years ago, soone fled three days after being conscripted into the army, but ca back a few days later, claiming it was because his younger brother had fallen gravely ill and died. The General at the ti, taking into account the man’s brotherly affection, only punished him with thirty canes. Afterward, this person fought bravely in battle, slaying countless enemies, and was soon promoted…”
“You…” Li Zhaoru stood up abruptly, his lips trembling, “How do you know about this? You…”
“Anything that has happened can always be known if one wishes to know.” Gu Qingheng still wore that gentle smile, “If General Li feels threatened because of this, then I believe there is no need to worry. After all, these many years, General Li has achieved illustrious military rits, and afterward, even took the initiative to ask to be stationed in Yong City. Over the years, you have been diligent, ensuring that the people here live in peace and happiness. On this account alone, General Li, even if you had made any mistakes before, should be forgiven… Of course, this is not my opinion, but rather…” he said as he took out a Jade Pendant and passed it over, “the opinion of this person.”
