"Hahaha, I knew that you would be able to guess it, but His Highness said that you weren't married, so you wouldn't think of it. Hahaha, this is great, His Highness owes us another round of wine. When I return to Horizontal Blade City, I will definitely ask His Highness to treat us. That's right, His Highness is married, and I heard that sister-in-law is very beautiful. Of course, I didn't see her, but His Highness said that the two of us are not allowed to go to the back residence, saying that he doesn't want to disturb her. Hahaha."
"Hahaha, I knew that Brother Dao wouldn't be so kind. Just wait, when we return, I will definitely give him a good beating. Right, which family does sister-in-law belong to?"
"I heard that she belongs to the Liu Family. That Craftsman Family is very famous in the Craftsman Guild. The Liu Family is as famous as your Hu Family, and their style is very similar to your Hu Family. They have always been very low-key, and even outsiders rarely hear of their name. I heard that His Majesty wanted His Highness to marry Miss Xian 'er from your Hu Family, but the Hu Family didn't agree.
"Is that so? I really didn't know, I just returned from the Great Desert, so I don't know anything. Forget it, I don't care too much about it. It seems like I have to ask Brother Dao to tell sister-in-law to help me get some special weapons. "
"Come on, sister-in-law comes from the Liu Family, but she doesn't know how to forge. What weapons do you want her to make for you? I heard that His Highness dotes on sister-in-law a lot. If you mess around, His Highness will punish you."
"What do you mean mess around with weapons? Alright, let's talk about it when we return to His Highness. Come, let's drink."
… … …
After the two drank, they didn't care about the others anymore. They talked about Dao Baiying, Lang Shiping's matters in Yellow Wind City, and finally Zhao Hai's matters in the Grand Desert.
Although Hu Ding and the others were drinking, Hu Ding was paying attention to Zhao Hai and Lang Shiping. After meeting Zhao Hai and Lang Shiping, Hu Ding wanted to know how close the relationship between Zhao Hai and Dao Baiying was. Now that he heard Zhao Hai and Lang Shiping's conversation, Hu Ding was completely shocked. He felt that this matter needed to be reported to his family. From the two's conversation, he could hear that Zhao Hai and Dao Baiying weren't just ordinary friends, they were very familiar with each other. They had already reached the level of brothers who would live and die together.
Dao Baiying would certainly become the Emperor of the Saber Soul Nation in the future, this was something that everyone was well aware of. Moreover, Dao Baiying handled things very well. Dao Mingyuan praised him a lot. However, Dao Baiying had one thing in mind, that was that he didn't have any contact with any of the Great Clans. The only ones who could talk to him were the Liu Family, the Hu Family, and the Lang Family. Needless to say, the Liu Family's daughter had already become his wife, so naturally the Liu Family could talk to him. The Hu Family could talk to him because of Zhao Hai, and the Lang Family. The same was true for the Lang Family, they were able to talk to him because of Lang Shiping.
In the past, people didn't know the extent of the relationship between Zhao Hai and Dao Baiying. After all, Zhao Hai had been in the desert for several years. Although Zhao Hai had some contact with Dao Baiying, it was only in the academy. After that, they met in Yellow Wind City. However, nobody knew the extent of the relationship between Dao Baiying and Zhao Hai.
Now, Hu Ding knew that the relationship between Zhao Hai and Dao Baiying seemed to be on par with Lang Shiping. One must know that Lang Shiping was recognized as Dao Baiying's most trusted aide. One could see how much Dao Baiying trusted Lang Shiping when Dao Baiying handed over Yellow Wind City to him.
At this time, Dao Baiying's biggest bargaining chip was the army of Yellow Wind City. The army of Yellow Wind City was the elite of the entire Saber Spirit Country. With such a bargaining chip in hand, Dao Baiying was in an invincible position. Additionally, he didn't get close to any of the great clans. He didn't try to rope in the ministers, he was very low-key. Moreover, he was very filial to the old Emperor. All of this meant that Dao Baiying was destined to become the next Emperor of the Saber Spirit Country.
Because of this, the army of Yellow Wind City was very important to Dao Baiying. Because of this, when Lang Shiping took over the army of Yellow Wind City, the entire Saber Spirit Country knew that Lang Shiping was Dao Baiying's most trusted aide. Although the Lang Clan was very low-key, everyone knew that as long as Dao Baiying ascended to the throne, the Lang Clan would certainly prosper.
Now, a person whose position in Dao Baiying's heart wasn't any worse than Lang Shiping had appeared. Moreover, this person was a member of the Hu Clan. For Hu Ding, this was definitely good news.
On this day, Zhao Hai and Lang Shiping drank a lot of wine. In the end, both of them got drunk. The next morning, after the two woke up, Lang Shiping invited Zhao Hai to his room. The two sat in the room before a servant immediately brought them breakfast. Lang Shiping pointed at the breakfast and said, "Eat some. I drank too much yesterday, my head still hurts."
Zhao Hai was much better. After all, his strength was there for all to see. Moreover, his body was much stronger than Lang Shiping. Therefore, he didn't have any special reactions.
Breakfast was very simple, there were a few steamed buns as well as a bowl of porridge. Zhao Hai took a sip of the porridge and said, "Tell me, how is Brother Dao right now?"
Lang Shiping rubbed his temples and said in a deep voice, "What else can he do? He's trying to keep a low profile. Every day, other than dealing with official business, he just stays in the mansion and doesn't go out. He doesn't have any contact with anyone, even the Liu family. This is quite good. His Majesty is very satisfied with him."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "That's good. It's not easy for Brother Dao to understand this point. Now that he's the Crown Prince, there are countless eyes on him. Him not coming in contact with anyone is a good thing. This is because he gave all the Great Clans hope. Everyone will try to curry favor with him. This way, when he ascends to the throne, it will be easier for him to do things. However, you're very important because you're the most important card in Brother Dao's hand."
Lang Shiping nodded and said, "I know, you know me. I can't do other things, but if you want me to protect what I have, I can do it well. Crane Grass, you should go back and see His Highness. His Highness certainly has a lot of things to say to you. Right now, there's no one around His Highness that he can trust. If it weren't for the fact that this place is very important to His Highness, I would have already resigned and returned to His Highness' side."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Don't worry, after I return to Horizontal Blade City, I'll go see him. However, I won't stay by his side. In the future, he will become an Emperor. How many people can be trusted by an Emperor's side? He needs to adapt to this situation."
Lang Shiping let out a long sigh, then turned to look at Zhao and said, "You haven't been in the country for a few years, but your reputation isn't small. This reputation came from the Prairie. I heard that your name can stop children from crying in the night. In addition to the Prairie, there is also the Tiger Soul Country. I heard that the people in the Tiger Soul Country hate to eat your meat and drink your blood. This is because the desert bandits have never stopped attacking the Tiger Soul Country in the past few years. Although this attack won't hurt the Tiger Soul Country, it can still make the Tiger Soul Country bleed non-stop. The people in the Tiger Soul Country think that all of this is because of you, and even a lot of people in our country think the same. The more they think about you, the more famous you become, and the more they are afraid of you, so you must be careful."
Zhao Hai smiled and said, "What's there to be afraid of? Haha, don't worry about me, I'll be fine. Isn't it good to be famous? Besides, no matter what, I'm still a Baron of the Empire. My title is still there. Shouldn't I do something for the country?"
Lang Shiping smiled bitterly and said, "That's true. You're from the Hu Family, those people really don't dare to do anything to you. However, you really came back at the right time. Recently, there's an event about plant masters that you may participate in."
Zhao Hai looked at Lang Shiping in puzzlement and asked, "What's the matter? Is it related to plant masters? "
Lang Shiping nodded and said, "Have you heard of the decennial Ten Nations Plant Master Assembly?"
Zhao Hai was stunned, then nodded and said, "I've heard of it, of course I've heard of it. The Ten Nations Plant Master Assembly is a very important exchange event for plant masters of the Ten Nations. It takes turns to be held in the Ten Nations. This time, it should be held in the Wolf Soul Nation, right?"
Lang Shiping nodded and said, "Yes, it's going to be held in the Wolf Soul Nation this time. However, the Wolf Soul Nation is in chaos now, so the other nine nations have unanimously agreed to hold the Plant Master Assembly in the Sword Soul Nation. In about a month, the Plant Master Assembly will be held. Don't you know about this? Didn't you come back for this? "
Zhao Hai shook his head and said, "I've long forgotten about this matter. I've been busy in the grassland every day. Now that I'm finally done, I immediately ran back. How would I have the time to care about the Plant Master Assembly? Hey, right, I don't know about this matter either. Why do you think that I might participate in this Plant Master Assembly?"
Lang Shiping looked at Zhao Hai and said, "Do you think anyone can participate in the Plant Master Assembly? To participate in the Plant Master Assembly, there are conditions. First, each nation has a hundred spots. Second, each nation is allowed to have ten adult plant masters, but adult plant masters are not allowed to participate. Third, all participants of the assembly must not be older than twenty-five years old. Fourth, one must be an official and recognized plant master of the Plant Master Assembly. Tell me, which one of these conditions do you not meet?"
Zhao Hai smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, they all meet the requirements, but why must I participate? Can't I not participate? "
Lang Shiping said in a deep voice, "The Plant Master Assembly is a stage for the plant masters of each nation to compete. Although all the plant masters are under the management of the Plant Master Assembly, they still need to rely on their nation to support them. If it comes to a time of war, the plant masters will also represent their nation on the battlefield. Just like your Hu Clan. Although the Hu Clan has a high status in the Plant Master Assembly, because the Hu Clan is in the Saber Soul Nation, the Hu Clan has been branded with the Saber Soul Nation. When other nations mention the Hu Clan, the first thing that comes to mind is the plant masters of the Saber Soul Nation. When your Hu Clan goes to other nations, you won't only represent your clan, but the entire Saber Soul Nation. This Plant Master Assembly is also an opportunity for plant masters of each nation to display their strength.
