Qi Xiaoze came in high spirits. He thought that Wei Ziyao would not be disappointed and would go with him without hesitation.
But to his surprise, she actually refused.
"You don't want to go?" Qi Xiaoze had a puzzled look on his face. "The soldiers in the army have heard of your deeds. You subdued the enemy without a fight and disintegrated the rebel army within a day by yourself. They all want to hear the details from you."
"Senior Martial Brother, you've made it clear. Isn't it just subduing the enemy without fighting? I have explained it in one sentence. There is nothing legendary about it. If you want to hear about the legendary deeds of the art of war, why don't you go to my third brother? He can tell you similar stories for three days and three nights. "
After all, Wei An was famous for being a military master. Many of his victories in major battles were due to his extraordinary tactics.
"Do you care about him that much?" Qi Xiaoze looked at Wei Ziyao with a displeased expression.
This was the first time that Wei Ziyao saw him being displeased with her.
The key was that it was because of such a small matter.
"Why do I have to bring him along? I just don't want to talk about my glorious deeds. Moreover, I am a civil official now. I don't belong to the army. Why do I have to go to the army to announce my military achievements? "
Wei Ziyao looked at Qi Xiaoze. She felt that his thoughts were somewhat extreme.
"You have a flamboyant personality. Moreover, my father favors you. If you go to the army to say these things, he won't punish you."
"Senior, I am flamboyant. I never said that I am low-key, but I am not stupid. What's wrong with you today?"
Wei Ziyao felt more and more strange.
However, Qi Xiaoze turned his face away. "You are the Lord Wei who cares about the world. I thought that in your heart, the army and the world should be more important than a man."
"Senior Brother, you really know how to flatter me. I'm just an unreliable person. What family, country, and the world? I'm just like a duck being driven onto a perch. There are some things that I do for my own purpose. Don't think of me as a selfless person. I'm just a selfish person!"
Wei Ziyao wanted to bury herself in the ground in order to explain this matter clearly.
Qi Xiaoze just stared at her and suddenly smiled. "It's for your own good. If you don't look out for yourself, the devil will destroy you. Your character is worthy of appreciation."
“???” Wei Ziyao looked at Qi Xiaoze. "Second Brother, are you under too much pressure recently because of Fourth Prince's rebellion? Why don't you go and talk to the Emperor and take a break? "
Wei Ziyao felt that this person was a little schizophrenic.
"Indeed." Qi Xiaoze nodded in agreement and sighed. His tone was full of helplessness. "I spent most of my time at the border with Master, and all I could think about was protecting my country. I didn't open up new territories and only wanted to protect my Northern Qin's land and its people. However, not long after I returned to the Imperial Court, I actually saw so many evil people. This change is something I can't accept …"
She had to admit that it was true.
Qi Xiaoze didn't look like an ordinary member of the royal family at all.
Look at Number Seven. Usually, he followed Qi Xiaoze around in the barracks. However, Number Seven would more or less have a prince's sense of superiority. Qi Xiaoze did not have that at all.
He was proud of being a general. He would not lower his head to anyone, nor would he be weak.
With this kind of character, it was too easy to be taken advantage of.
"I thought Jianning was the most sensible. After all, she was the apple of my father's eye. But who would have thought that she was just a pawn of my father."
"Senior, why do you say that?"
"Jian Ning told me before she got married. She said that the reason why Father loved her so much was because he wanted to sell her at a higher price. Because she was the only daughter and had been spoiled since she was a child, she was more valuable as a bargaining chip."
