Chapter 387.4: The Destiny of a He Family Man

He Zhen Wei slightly narrowed his eyes. This brat has never known what is admitting defeat, and belonged to the type that will continue fighting despite repeated setbacks and not someone that would suffer in defeat. What happened, why dont you tell your old man. Although unable to beat you in a fight, in other aspects, youre still lacking too much.

Towards this bit, He s.h.i.+ Hai actually very much acknowledged, thus having todays matter recounted.

He Zhen Wei was shocked. Last time, when this brat fought with Jin Qinw.a.n.g, in his eyes, deep in Jin Qinw.a.n.gs bones, perhaps there was a kind of wildness like his son. However, today, he just completely changed his style. Towards He s.h.i.+ Hais situation, there wasnt anyone that understood better than the He family. Its not that theyve never thought of using Li Hong Yuans method to restrain him, just the disparity was a bit big. As the saying goes, strong brute force can defeat ten, thats why this method was simply useless, yet unexpectedly, Jin Qinw.a.n.g was able to achieve it. Then recalling Jin Qinw.a.n.gs words, and this stupid son of his that just knew about fighting and killing, he kept feeling that Jin Qinw.a.n.g perhaps

What else did Jin Qinw.a.n.g say to you? He Zhen Wei seamlessly asked.

What else? He s.h.i.+ Hai scratched his head, At the end, he seemingly also said something, what was it again? It seemed to be quite important too, let me carefully think, oh, I remember now. Jin Qinw.a.n.g said: Let General He return to the northeastern border town as soon as possible.

When He s.h.i.+ Hai finished saying this, he finally realized in hindsight, how was this just quite important, this was clearly very important.

He may have all this thoughts used on martial arts, but it didnt mean that he really was stupid. He s.h.i.+ Hai immediately put away his dispirited look, carrying a bit of solemness, Father

You b.a.s.t.a.r.d, if I didnt say anything, are you just going to have such an important matter tossed to the back of your head? He Zhen Wei once again wanted to slap him to death.

If not for having some special circ.u.mstances, Jin Qinw.a.n.g wouldnt say such a thing for no reason.

He s.h.i.+ Hai this while also didnt have the confidence to retort his old man, Who knew that at that time Jin Qinw.a.n.g would say this kind of thing. For me to be able to recall right now is already not bad. If switched with any other time, itd be strange if I can remember.

You even have reason? If its really just easily discovering this brats weakness after exchanging moves once, and when exchanging blows the second time, just able to successfully restrain, and moreover, let this b.a.s.t.a.r.d maintain a clear head accordingly, also adding on this last line, then He Zhen Wei will have to completely revaluate Jin Qinw.a.n.gs character.

Father, Ive been like this since birth, unable to change.

Unable to change? Today, didnt Jin Qinw.a.n.g just help you change?

He s.h.i.+ Hai choked, unable to respond.

He Zhen Wei coldly sneered, What, took a blow? Know that youre not Jin Qinw.a.n.gs opponent, so in the future, all wont look for him anymore? This way is the best. In the future, you better obediently stay put for me, and dont stir up trouble.

Who said I wont go anymore? I will definitely be able to find a way to break through. He s.h.i.+ Hai stuck out his neck and said.

Just you? He Zhen Wei had him scanned from head to toe with a disdainful look.

Just me! He s.h.i.+ Hai reignited that fiery fighting spirit again.

This isnt something that can just be said with the mouth. He Zhen Wei turned his head, yet on his face was an unprecedented look of solemness.

He Zhen Wei went to look for his mother and wife. Right now, they were the best candidates to consult countermeasures with. After all, back at the border town, many things, theyd all partic.i.p.ated in, and the soldiers below also all very much respected.

Seeing his complexion, the pair instantly knew that it wasnt a small matter, and thus became solemn.

He Zhen Wei also didnt hide or conceal, explaining the matter to them in detail, including his own guesses, ..Right now, to suddenly reveal himself to us, its nothing more than two kinds of situation. One, its just purely being concerned for Qi Yuans safety, having his own channels, knowing that the northeastern borders afraid will encounter trouble, or two, want to rope us in to be used by him. After all, Jin Qinw.a.n.g, at least on the surface, has no power and influence, but he was also his Majestys most beloved son. Under normal circ.u.mstances, even if unable to come first, he can still contend against Kang Qinw.a.n.g and Rui Qinw.a.n.g. Thats why, in this matter, there certainly must be a reason why he cant be open, perhaps needing to be prepared to seize the throne by military force. As for letting me return to the border town, there should be elements of the first case mixed in.

Never thought that there was actually another one hidden. The capitals waters are even muddier than expected. He Old Madam sighed.

Then, what should we do now? Our He family has never partic.i.p.ated in these things, should we prevent s.h.i.+ Hai from going in the future..

No, if Jin Qinw.a.n.g really has the intention of training s.h.i.+ Hai, then that is just equal to saving s.h.i.+ Hais life. We cant, because of our certain guesses, just ruin s.h.i.+ Hais opportunity. Its best if we can come in contact with Jin Qinw.a.n.g, and learn his precise purpose. They although werent brainless, but when it comes to the twist and turns of sinister schemes and machinations, they were still far from those scholars.

Afraid it wont be possible. Jin Qinw.a.n.gs power thats operating in the dark, others havent detected in the slightest. Its more than enough to show his meticulousness, so he wont easily come in contact with military generals. Even for s.h.i.+ Hai, its all s.h.i.+ Hai voluntarily sticking to him on his own, and even a stupid one that has obtained his Majestys permission, thus coming in contact.

Thinking to here, the three of them were all alarmed by the thought. If these really were all plotted by Jin Qinw.a.n.g

This mind sure is deep, even having long eyed our He family.

Towards this kind of person, one really is quite powerless. If he really wants to rope us in, perhaps even without us nodding, hell just be able to achieve his goal.

Thats why, towards this kind of person, were completely lost for what to do, and can only treat the moves with calmness

[1]

, either countering every move when time comes, or directly get led by the nose?

Is there other ways?

Tomorrow, there will be a banquet in the manor. The invitations have also been sent to the various princes manors. Jin Qinw.a.n.g Manor perhaps will have some indication.

Because they were completely on the defense, they indeed werent able to do anything, and couldnt come up with any conclusions either.

The next day, the He family held a banquet. For the most part, the various princes all didnt attend, but sent gifts instead. Because of various guesses, towards the things sent by Jin Qinw.a.n.g Manor, they particularly cared about. At a glance, it was rather plain with nothing unusual about it, more or less the same as the other manors gifts, but after careful contemplation, they still discovered some clues. The meaning was just one: swiftly return. Of course, this was under the premise of having the words brought back by He s.h.i.+ Hai the day before, else one definitely wont think of this.

Looks like, something really will happen. Tomorrow, I will request a decree to return to the northeastern border town. That brat, I wont take with me, just taking old fourth. He Zhen Wei made the decision.

Ill go with you. Madam He immediately said without a second thought.

This time, since I had you all brought back, then naturally have no intention of letting you all go back, especially now, after learning that something big might happen at the borders, how can I possibly let you all go back? Thats why, madam, this time, you need to listen to me. He Zhen Wei was firm in front of his wife for once.

You worry about us, but we similarly worry about you.

He Zhen Wei smiled, Starting from fifty years ago, guarding the northeastern borders have just been the He family mens destiny. However, this time, since we obtained news in advance, we at least wont be caught unprepared. In Jin Qinw.a.n.gs hands, perhaps theres even more important information, just right now isnt convenient. After leaving the capital, perhaps he will contact me. As such, regardless of how big of a matter, the northeastern border town will all be able to avert danger. Thats why, you should listen to me.

Madam He closed her eyes, no longer saying anything. A stream of tears rolled down from the corner of her eye, but she hurriedly wiped it away. When she opened her eyes again, she was full of determination, Husband, dont worry, I will definitely protect our family, waiting for the day to be reunited. If unable to, then once I properly arrange everything, I will go find you.

(T/N: The last line heavily implies that if he cant come back alive, she will follow him to the grave. The implications are more obvious in chinese.)

He Zhen Wei forcibly smiled, grasping her hand, Okay.

He Old Madam sat to the side in silence, shortly after closing her eyes, removing the prayer beads on her wrist, quickly pus.h.i.+ng the beads one by one.

The next day, He Zhen Wei sure enough submitted a memorandum, his words sincere, nothing more than considering for the sake of Qi Yuan, requesting to return to the borders.

Le Cheng Emperor was moved, granting the request.
