Han Qiao urged Heng Yi to take off his outer clothes and pulled him under the blanket. She leaned into his arms and sighed comfortably, “Alright, let’s talk now.”
Heng Yi smiled.
His originally conflicted emotions instantly relaxed after hearing Han Qiao’s words.
“The eccentric old man is back. I feel that the way he looked at me today was a little strange. He also said that if I am willing to give up the current things and follow him for a year, he will teach me what he has learned all his life.”
“Bai Cha advised me not to agree, but…”
“Power and influence can be obtained as long as you work hard, but peerless martial arts are difficult. Especially since he had a very unpredictable temper. Not only do I have to plan for myself, but I also have to plan for Yao.”
“He is so smart. Even if he doesn’t rely on me, he can still gain power through his own efforts. However, he has to be capable enough to protect himself when he’s in trouble.”
“Some skills cannot be obtained by having money and power.”
Han Qiao agreed.
“Then do you want to go?”
Heng Yi nodded.
Han Qiao thought for a moment and said, “Then write an urgent letter to the Emperor and ask him to send a good soldier over. We’ll also make arrangements on our side. Tell the Emperor to build another Sanzhou Town for him.”
“The Emperor is a wise ruler. For the sake of the princess, he will definitely agree.”
The Emperor wouldn’t mind having a large army as long as Heng Yi could organize and strengthen it.
“What about the silver?” Heng Yi asked.
“Let’s first ask the old man what his request is, then write a letter to the Emperor,”
Heng Yi thought about it, and he couldn’t sleep.
It wasn’t long before the new year, so he was very busy.
He got up and put on his clothes. He turned to Han Qiao, “Go to sleep. Don’t wait for me,”
He didn’t know when he would return from this trip. He had been exhausted during his time away from Han Qiao before.
Now, his heart ached too.
“Hurry, then.”
Han Qiao waved her hand.
She yawned and planned to continue sleeping until Heng Yi came back.
When Heng Yi came to Bai Cha’s side, Bai Cha panicked, “Brother.”
Heng Yi patted his shoulder.
The old man didn’t expect Heng Yi to return so soon.
It took a lot of courage to give up power and follow him.
“Come in.”
When Heng Yi entered the room, Bai Cha paced anxiously outside.
He wanted to find Han Qiao, but he also knew that Heng Yi would only come back because of her support.
In the room, the old man had already washed up. He was exhausted but wasn’t surprised to see Heng Yi.
This child understood better than he thought.
“Have you thought it through?”
“Old man, other than giving up your current military power, do you have any other requests?”
“Aren’t you afraid that I’ll ask you to give up your military power just to coax you?” the old man asked back.
Heng Yi looked at the old man.
“Can you do that?” Heng Yi asked back.
The room instantly fell silent.
The old man didn’t say anything, neither did Heng Yi. Only the crackling sound from the oil lamp filled the silence between them.
None spoke a word.
The crackling of fire was especially loud, especially in the ears of those who were skilled in martial arts. It was very clear.
“Heh.” The old man laughed.
“When I first saw you, I thought you looked familiar. I asked around and found out that you were very strong. It reminded me of my poor senior brother. To be honest, I almost forgot what he looked like. After all, I haven’t seen him for more than twenty years. When he was young, he always liked to grow a beard and pretend to be old,”
“Before I came to have a drink that day, I was actually very hesitant. Your personality is very similar to my Senior Brother’s.”
“On the surface, you look honest, but behind that face, you have your own ideas and persistence.”
“I suspect that you may be the child that he lost back then, so I made a trip back to the sect. However, there is not much evidence that can prove whether you are my Senior Brother’s youngest son or not….”
