”I like that brat Lan Xin more!” Hearing his son talk about Lan Xin, Ye Xiaozhang opened his mouth and said: ”It's alright to marry him. Although Your Majesty has always said that there are no sons, I do not believe him! Last time, I mentioned about him becoming an official after he grows up, but for some reason, Fei seems to be disgusted with it! ”
”You guys really care a lot!” The old woman said, ”I don't know who that grandson of mine is. He was still young, and even if he were smart, he wouldn't consider so many things. He'll come up with a lot of questions when he gets a little bigger, and that's not what we have to worry about right now. Right now, there is something else that I have to take care of! ”
”What is it?” Ye Xiaozhang was startled. ”Is there anything more important than that little bastard's future marriage and status in the imperial city?”
”Of course!” The Old Granny nodded and said, ”Our Ye Family was developed through war. Although Fei was not able to cultivate martial arts, but seeing the idea he gave Kuang'er to build up the army, Fei had great talent in leading the troops in the future. If Fei opposes being a civil servant, then let him be like Kuang'er and lead the troops! ”
”Leading troops?” Ye Kuang opened his mouth wide, and after a long while he said: ”Mother, you want Fei to lead the troops? He himself doesn't have any combat strength, so how could he lead troops? ”
”Of course you can!” Xue Rou nodded from the side and said, ”Mother is right. The prestige of the Ye Family in the Empire is completely established within the military. If Fei were to become a civil servant in the future, it would be a waste of our greatest resources. Who said we can't lead troops without fighting strength? Wasn't the first Grand Marshal of Cloud Sea Empire back then Saint Hai Xuan? ”
”That's true!” Ye Xiaozhang nodded his head, ”Generals do not necessarily need extremely strong martial power. After all, martial arts could be made up with the army. The main thing was the mind. Didn't Fei tell Frelot before? ”Is there a kind of general called the Future?”
”It's the Confucian General, Father!” Seeing that his father-in-law was scratching his head as if he couldn't remember, Xue Rou reminded him softly from the side.
”Yes, yes! It is called the Confucian General! ” Ye Xiaozhang nodded and said, ”This little rascal, I don't know where you got this word from, but just listening to it makes me feel like it's very aristocratic! What you said is right, Fei will become a general in the future, a Confucian general. Let's see who among the royal officials dares to oppose my command! ”
”So that's why, our priority right now is to allow Fei to get used to the war. After all, no matter how smart you are, you have never seen the brutality of war. You are still like those flowers in the Royal Courtyard. The madame continued.
”Mother, you mean …” Ye Kuang looked at his mother: ”Let Fei experience the true war?”
”That's right!” The madame nodded and said, ”The day after tomorrow, didn't you want to lead your troops to exterminate the bandits of Lanin Plains?” Fei, bring it along, let him see Bloodlust! Descendants of Ye Family must become accustomed to war! ”
