”Lott, you have really disappointed me today. Originally, I thought that you were very shrewd since you had already sat in your current position, but now it seems that you are still far from being able to do so. For the first time, I think that my suggestion to your majesty to raise your rank is a mistake!”
Old Frelot's tone was heavy, as though an elder was facing off against a junior who wasn't too ambitious!
”Teacher!”
Lott was still half kneeling: ”I really have fallen in love with that girl Xue Xi, and if I remember correctly, that girl's position in the Principality of Snow is very high, she might even be able to sit on the throne of the king. I think if I really marry her, wouldn't that mean I have expanded the empire? ”So …”
”So you dared to clearly know that tonight, under the gazes of everyone present, the Old Man Ye was giving his grandson and Xue Xi a blind date dinner to harass their unmarried grandson?” The Old Frelot suddenly interrupted Lott's words with a stern voice. ”Lott, as my student, do you really think that I don't know what you are thinking?”
”Teacher, I really have no other thoughts!” Lott said anxiously, ”That Xue Xi only said that she wanted to marry Ye Fei, but it did not officially announce it. Furthermore, even if it is announced, as long as they have not held the wedding ceremony, I should have the rights to pursue the girl I like. This student truly does not feel that I made any mistakes tonight, but this student thinks that Ye Xiaozhang is too arrogant!”
”Arrogant?” Old Frelot laughed coldly, ”You're still young, you have never seen him act so arrogantly before. Let me tell you Lotte, don't think that just because Old Man Ye is of military origin that he is a boorish man. Everyone has already seen through your true identity!”
”What?” Hearing this, Lott quivered and quickly stood up. ”Teacher, this is impossible. Besides you and father, there is no other person who would know my identity. I have never told anyone about it!”
”Humph!” However, after thinking about it, he lowered his hand and sighed, ”You, ah, are still too inexperienced. Let me tell you, there are some things that you don't need to say, not just Old Man Ye, as long as your status is higher in the imperial city, who wouldn't be able to guess your identity? It's just that they do not dare to confirm it! ”
After pausing for a moment, Old Frelot continued, ”If not, do you think you would be able to walk out of the Ye Mansion alive today?”
”They dare!” Lott said anxiously, ”Even if I don't hide my identity and give them ten guts, do you think they would dare to kill the commander of an empire's Deputy Minister of Military Affairs and the most valiant White Tiger Cavalry on the spot? As long as they dare to do it, then they will lose the reputation of being a rebel! ”
”To create what?” Old Frelot shook his head: ”Maybe others don't dare, but I can tell you, Old Man Ye definitely dares. It's not because he is the Grand Marshal, nor is it because he is the Minister of Military Affairs, nor is it because he can rely on his seniority to appear old. It's just because he is the Martial God, the only Martial God on the surface in Drew Empire, and you dare to harass the granddaughter-in-law of the Martial God.
