"Mm, since Adjunct Li personally pleaded for you, I will not pursue the crime of disobeying military orders this time! But the two of you must remember this lesson. If you do it again, I will settle all the old and new debts with you! "
On the Black Armor Military Drill Ground, facing Li Zexuan who suddenly appeared to plead for Zhang Kangnian and Sun Tao, Duan Zhixuan squinted his eyes and looked deeply at Li Zexuan. Then, his old face turned serious as he spoke sternly to Zhang Kangnian and Sun Tao.
"Yes, yes, yes! Thank you, Great General! "
"Thank you, Great General!"
Hearing this, Zhang Kangnian and Sun Tao hurriedly walked over and bowed to Duan Zhixuan as if they had been granted amnesty.
Duan Zhixuan waved his hand and said, "If you want to thank someone, thank Adjunct Li! Alright, the two of you can go and lead the team for training! "
"Yes, Sir!"
Zhang Kangnian and Sun Tao replied. Then, they clasped their fists to Li Zexuan to thank him for pleading for them just now. Then, they left.
"General Duan, I am going to the A Battalion to take a look at Adjunct Li's new training method. I will not accompany you!"
At this moment, Qiu Xinggong clasped his fists to Duan Zhixuan and said with a dark face.
Previously, when he pleaded for Zhang Kangnian and Sun Tao, Duan Zhixuan did not give him any face at all. But when Li Zexuan came, he only said a few words and asked Duan Zhixuan to let Zhang Kangnian and Sun Tao go. Such obvious favoritism made Qiu Xinggong very angry!
Of course, what made him even more angry was that Li Zexuan had used Duan Zhixuan's favoritism to sell Zhang Kangnian and Sun Tao a favor. Zhang Kangnian and Sun Tao were his "loyal followers"! Li Zexuan was trying to steal his men!
Even if he didn't succeed in poaching this' corner ', he had still planted a seed of suspicion between Qiu Xinggong, Zhang Kangnian, and Sun Tao. Just imagine, after this incident, would Sun Tao and Zhang Kangnian still stand firmly on Qiu Xinggong's side in the future? Even if they did, Qiu Xinggong would not dare to completely trust the two of them like before. This was because he could not guarantee that the two of them would not betray him!
Therefore, Qiu Xinggong felt as disgusted as if he had eaten sh * t. He couldn't stay here any longer!
Duan Zhixuan obviously knew that Qiu Xinggong was unhappy in his heart right now, but it wasn't good for him to point it out to his face. He could only nod and say, "Alright! Xinggong, you can go back to your work! "
Qiu Xinggong cupped his fists and turned around to leave, not even sparing a glance at Li Zexuan.
Li Zexuan didn't mind at all. After Qiu Xinggong left, he cupped his fists towards Duan Zhixuan and said, "General Duan, if there's nothing else, this general will go and instruct the soldiers in their training! After all, the new drill has just been introduced today. Many soldiers, including the commanders of the various battalions, still don't know the specific movements. I can only rest assured if I watch from the side! "
Duan Zhixuan nodded and said with a smile, "Huhu! Good! This general still has some doubts about the contents of your drill. I'll go take a look with you! "
Even though Duan Zhixuan was on Li Zexuan's side when it came to Zhang Kangnian and Sun Tao, Duan Zhixuan still had his doubts about the new training manual. If he didn't clear up his doubts, he wouldn't be at ease to fully implement Li Zexuan's training manual in the Black Armored Army!
"Good! Grand General, please! "
Hearing this, Li Zexuan made a sound of agreement and made an inviting gesture.
He had originally planned to wait a few days before letting Duan Zhixuan see the results of the drill. But since Duan Zhixuan wanted to see it now, he had no reason to refuse. It was a good opportunity for Duan Zhixuan to give him some advice and prevent him from going astray!

"Old Master! Old Master! His Highness King of Shu is here! "
South of Chang 'an City, Lin family's front hall.
Lin Wenyuan was having breakfast with his wife in the front hall. Suddenly, a servant rushed in and bowed to Lin Wenyuan.
"What? His Highness King of Shu? Why is His Highness King of Shu here? "
Lin Wenyuan was stunned. His right hand, which was holding chopsticks, couldn't help but tremble. Although he was doing well in the business world with the help of the Flameyellow Chamber of Commerce, Lin Wenyuan was still very respectful of the imperial power. He had never thought that he would have any interaction with the imperial family one day.
"Old Master, it's true! His Highness King of Shu is outside the courtyard. He said that he has something to discuss with you! "
The servant's face was still in shock. Obviously, Li Ke's arrival had a great impact on him.
"Old Master, His Highness King of Shu is now a student of Yanhuang College. My Hao 'er is also going to Yanhuang College. In that case, they can be considered classmates. Do you think that His Highness King of Shu is here to look for Hao' er?"
Madam Lin said at this time.
Lin Wenyuan frowned. After a while, he nodded and said, "Madam Lin is right. Men, go to the backyard and wake up that unfilial son … Wake Hao 'er up! Come to the front yard to meet the guest! "
It was early in the morning. It was time for breakfast, but Lin Hao was not at the table. As for where he went, was there a need to ask? He was probably still sleeping. A few days ago, the academy released the results. Lin Hao was unexpectedly admitted to Yanhuang College. In the days before school started, this guy had been completely indulging. Cough, cough. His indulgence was not the same as the indulgence of other rich young masters. This guy took out all the novels he had accumulated in the past six months and read them every day and night. He went to bed very late every night, so he usually couldn't get up in the morning. Lin Wenyuan was too lazy to say anything about this!
"Yes! Old Master! "
A servant girl who was serving at the side hurriedly followed the order and left.
At this time, Lin Wenyuan seemed to have thought of something. He instantly stood up and said angrily to the servant just now, "Bastard, His Highness King of Shu came to visit. You didn't directly bring him in. How dare you stop him? Did you eat a bear's heart or a leopard's gall? "
Normally, people who came to the Lin Mansion had to be notified, but Li Ke was different. He was a prince. Why would he need to be notified when he came to a small merchant's house?
The servant hurriedly said, "Old Master, I wouldn't dare. His Highness King of Shu insisted that he should be notified when he came to visit. That's why I came in to report!"
Lin Wenyuan breathed a sigh of relief. He nodded and said, "Let's go! Come with me to welcome His Highness King of Shu! "
Out of politeness, Li Ke wanted to report first before coming in. However, Lin Wenyuan did not dare to put on airs. He was not qualified, so he had to go out to welcome him personally.
Immediately, a large group of servants and servant girls in the front hall followed behind Lin Wenyuan and Madam Lin and walked quickly towards the gate.
When they arrived at the gate, to Lin Wenyuan's surprise, there was no large group of palace guards outside the gate. There was only an elegant young man dressed in a scholarly robe. His clothes were not luxurious, but they could not hide the innate noble aura of the young man. Needless to say, that young man was Li Ke. It was hard to imagine that a prince would go out without a single guard.
Lin Wenyuan hurriedly went up to him and bowed respectfully. "Your Highness King of Shu has graced my humble abode with your presence. I hope Your Highness will forgive me for not going out to welcome you!"
