034 Beauty Young Commander-in-Chief (2)August 30, 2019secretdreamwishes
Linghu Shui Yue had a sleepless night and for the occasion, prepared some necessary medicinal products . Then received the half of the commander’s tally . Linghu General said some words to Linghu Shui Yue . He said this half of the commander’s tally was given to him by the late Emperor just before he died . At that time, the Emperor was still young . The late Emperor wanted him to exhaust all effort to be the young Emperor’s regent . In front of the military and civil officials, he presented half of the tally to him . This half of the commander’s tally had some deeper meanings . Attached with it was a copy of the late Emperor’s testamentary edict .
Linghu Shui Yue accepted the half of the commander’s tally and said, “Papa, maybe your high achievements overshadowed the Emperor and made the Emperor wary so he sent people to plot against you?”
Linghu General immediately scolded Linghu Shui Yue, “Huo Ri, Father is absolutely loyal to Da Yan, led a military life for all my life and did my utmost to a.s.sist two generations of rulers, sparing no effort until the end of my days . Monarch is monarch, va.s.sal is va.s.sal . The monarch wants the va.s.sal to die, the va.s.sal does not dare to live in the world . How could you doubt His Majesty? Since you have been conferred Young Commander by His Majesty, then that is His Majesty’s infinite imperial grace towards our Linghu family . Though you can’t practice martial arts, you have been outstandingly resourceful since you were young and you’re good with mechanisms . Recently, you’ve also learned some medical knowledge . Your health has taken a favorable turn and your meridians are already no more different than an ordinary person . Father believes the Heavens protect our Da Yan and our Linghu family . ”
Hearing this, Linghu Shui Yue was moved by Linghu General’s loyalty like that of Yue Fei’s . However, as a modern person, she turned up her nose at such a thing . After all, with Linghu General’s martial arts, didn’t fall upon the battlefield but instead on the triumphant journey back, he was seriously injured . This made people suspect there was a major conspiracy .
(T/N: Yue Fei-a great general of ancient china who served his country loyally despite the Emperor’s distrust in him)
“Papa, how were you injured? Your martial arts is unmatched . You are wise and mighty . Who has the ability to hurt Papa? Ri’er has doubts . ”
Linghu General half leaned on the chaise . He muttered to himself for a while and finally said, “Huo Ri, you don’t have to be suspicious about this matter . But you must remember father’s words . After departing for war, you must pledge your life to protect ninth lord! He is Da Yan’s blessing . If Da Yan was handed over to him in the future, it will be the common people of the world’s great fortune . ”
Hearing this, Linghu Shui Yue was beginning to believe there was a “loyal” officer like Yue Fei in the ancient era! His own son was physically weak yet Linghu General instructs him to pledge his life to protect ninth lord . That Zhu ninth lord’s martial arts and smarts belonged to that of a superior person . What need did he have for he Linghu Huo Ri to protect? Listening some more to a father’s teachings for a son, in the end this papa’s every word was all about Da Yan country and the world’s common people, it really made Linghu Shui Yue sweat profusely .
As far as how he was injured, he only said Liao dogs remaining survivors’ masters snuck into the army and successfully sneak attacked him . That person was killed by sixth lord on the spot . This matter wasn’t mentioned again .
Before leaving, Linghu General said something strange, “This time’s Chief Commander is You w.a.n.g ninth lord . Since you’re the Young Commander, while marching, you must share the same tent and bed as him . You must remember Papa’s instructions! You mustn’t leave an inch from ninth lord, and protect ninth lord with your life!”
“Yes, son will bear Papa’s words in mind and protect Zhu ninth lord with my life!” Linghu Shui Yue thought, Linghu General’s words basically meant he was worried about his son right? He wanted Linghu Huo Ri to not leave Zhu ninth lord’s side . Though he said he must protect ninth lord with his life, in reality, this was protecting himself . Because Linghu General believes Huo Ri will be safest by ninth lord’s side . All things considered, it was a little selfishness and fatherly love .
After leaving Linghu General’s study, Linghu Shui Yue smirked, imagining for a moment, she needs to sleep on the same bed as Zhu You Hong? Chief Commander and Young Commander are required to be in the same tent and bed? F*ck! How’s that possible?
