Shang Xiche happily left the court and departed.
With the selection of the expedition leaders finalized, the other civil and military officials no longer worried about being penalized with salary deductions and departed happily.
Ji Chenhai and Duke Chen came out one after the other. Turning around, he saw Duke Chen looking like he had lost his parents, and then saw the two brothers, Chen Shiyu and Chen Shiyu, with their bruised and swollen faces. He went up to them and said with a smile, "Hey, Duke Chen, what's wrong? Are you unhappy that the Emperor sent us to the Northwest? If you're unhappy, you should at least keep it to yourself. The Emperor just left. It wouldn't be good if someone saw us like that!"
Duke Chen glared angrily at Ji Chenhai: You know it's wrong, yet you still shout so loudly!
We're both fathers, so who the hell are you calling "you old man"?
Duke Chen glanced at Ji Chenhai's smooth, fleshy face and strong, robust physique; then, thinking of his own wrinkled and gray-haired body, he trembled with anger once more.
Going to the Northwest is a big deal.
Ji Chenhai sent a messenger back to Vulture Village, instructing them to remain in the village and not to descend the mountain unnecessarily.
That night, the father and son still sneaked to the Ninth Prince's residence in the dark, first discussing the war with Shang Xiye.
Finally, the three of them went to Ji Fengyao's Hui Nuan Pavilion together.
On the way, Ji Fengming paused several times before finally speaking: "Brother-in-law, can I ask you for someone to take with me on this trip to the Northwest?"
Shang Xiye looked up in confusion: "Who?"
"It's that guard who's next to Yao'er," Ji Fengming said, his eyes burning.
"Black Owl?" Shang Xiye raised an eyebrow when he saw Ji Fengming nod.
It would be good enough if the Black Owls didn't rebel and destroy the Great Zhao, but instead helped them fight in the Northwest for the Great Zhao.
Young man, you're probably overthinking things.
“Ask him yourself; I cannot make that decision for him,” Shang Xiye said directly.
“I didn’t intend for you to make the decision for him; I was just informing you,” Ji Fengming replied rather rudely.
Shang Xiye: "..."
Guards, drag this good-for-nothing brother-in-law out of here!
When the group arrived at Hui Nuan Pavilion, they recounted the events of the morning's court session to Ji Fengyao, who laughed so hard she bent over.
"Little sister, shouldn't you be worried about Dad and me going to the battlefield? Why do you look so happy?" Ji Fengming wondered. In the past, if he and Dad went to rob without this girl, she would cause a huge commotion.
"You've all had four or five medicinal baths already, why would I worry about you? Fighting a few more times will be good for you in the future. Don't worry, I'll prepare all kinds of medicines for you in the next few days so you can have no worries," Ji Fengyao said calmly, waving her hand.
If she were to return to the Danling Continent in the future, she would definitely want to bring her family with her.
The world of cultivators is different from the world of mortals; it is full of fighting and killing. More combat experience is always beneficial to them.
Ji Chenhai: "..."
Ji Fengming: "..."
Their Yao'er will never cling to them like before, they feel so disappointed.
It's all that Ninth Prince's fault!
The father and son both cast resentful glances at Shang Xiye beside them.
Shang Xiye calmly lowered his eyelids, pretending not to see anything:
I've already lent you my troops and given you orders to transfer them. Do you still want to abduct my little wife?
My little wife can only go to the battlefield with me!
In fact, Ji Chenhai and Ji Fengming didn't really want Ji Fengyao to go to the Northwest with them. After all, it was a battlefield, and it was very dangerous, unlike the previous robberies of corrupt officials.
The family chatted warmly for a while.
The father and son agreed to pick up the medicine from Ji Fengyao the day before their departure, and then left Hui Nuan Pavilion.
One went back to the Marquis of Anping's residence, while the other went to argue with Black Owl.
