However, seeing this shocking scene was one thing, and whether or not he would smack his son was another. Cheng Yaojin grinned hideously and rubbed his fists as he walked toward Cheng Huaimo.
Du Ruhui's face was ashen. He clenched his fists and walked side by side with Cheng Yaojin towards Du He.
"Father, you, why are you here!"
Du He and Cheng Huai Mo were excitedly watching the Dragon Slayer Guard's three thousand recruits solemnly swear to Fang Jun when they suddenly saw their father coming over with a sinister smile from the corner of their eyes. They were so frightened that their bodies trembled. The two of them hid behind Fang Jun with pale faces and stuttered.
"You still know that you have me as your father!"
Du Ruhui sneered." If I hadn't come, Chang 'an Fortress would have been torn down by you!"”
"Unfilial son, die!"
Cheng Yaojin was even more direct. With a loud shout, he took off his whip from his waist and whipped Cheng Huaimo. Every time he hit Cheng Huaimo's butt, Cheng Huaimo would cover his head and flee in pain, screaming loudly.
Du He stood rooted to the ground, not daring to move.
Du Ruhui snorted coldly. He wasn't as rude and unreasonable as Cheng Yaojin. Instead, he grabbed Du He's neck and turned around to walk home.
Although Du He was in his early forties and had the appearance of a scholarly civil official, he had the cultivation of a true ruler. It was difficult for him to charge into the enemy's formation like a military officer, but it was easy for him to break the bones of a brat.
Fang Jun looked at the two families with interest, but he did not see his father, Fang Xuanling, looking at him with a complicated gaze.
Fang Xuanling had mixed feelings. This brat had been causing trouble in Chang 'an for so long. He did not expect that it was to hide his strength. Now, the world had turned upside down. He had jumped from a playboy to a general personally conferred by Second Emperor Li.
Although General Longxu didn't have a rank.
But who in the court dared not treat Fang Jun differently?
Although Li Er didn't directly announce the betrothal to the world, the first two words of General Longson-in-law told the world about Fang Jun's future identity.
"His Majesty has issued a decree."
Fang Xuanling's attitude toward his son was completely different from the Cheng and Du families. Especially under the gaze of the new recruits of the 3,000 Dragon-Slaying Guards, he couldn't scold him. He lowered his voice and said angrily,"
" It's not easy to be your father. I have to clean up all the trouble you caused. His Majesty has approved the money and food for the 3,000 new soldiers. In addition, he has given you a camp ten miles outside Chang 'an City. Someone has already informed you. You just need to bring people there.”
"Father, you've worked hard."
Fang Jun smiled apologetically.
This time, he had brought 3,000 new soldiers into the city. Firstly, he planned to plant a seed in their hearts. Secondly, he wanted to indirectly remind Emperor Li Er that he should not go too far. If he recruited them, he would have to fork out the money and food.
"Only three months."
Fang Xuanling was very satisfied with his attitude. He knew that his father would clean up the mess behind him. He continued,"You have to work harder. When the time is up, the Dragon Slaying Guards must show strength that can make His Majesty convinced!”
"How do you mean you're convinced?" Fang Jun asked.”
"In the past, I didn't know that you were hiding your abilities. Now that you've revealed your abilities, don't hide them. How can you not know what I mean?”
Fang Xuanling teased.
Fang Jun scratched his head and laughed awkwardly.
"It hasn't been long since His Majesty ascended the throne."
Fang Xuanling tilted his head and looked into the distance, his tone full of worry."The world isn't at peace right now, and the hidden crown prince Li Jiancheng's forces are still lurking in some remote areas of the Great Tang. Although the hidden crown prince has been executed at Xuanwu Gate, the roots of a dead tree run deep. Those vipers that have been lying dormant can jump out at any moment when the Great Tang is weak!”
"And the Turks to the north."
Fang Jun interrupted.
"The Turks?"
Fang Xuanling frowned and shook his head."The Turks have an alliance with the Great Tang, and the Turkic Jieli Khan probably doesn't have the guts to do so. The power of the steppe is already too much for him to take care of himself, and with the Great Tang border army at the border, he can't pose a threat for now.”
Fang Jun looked at him and didn't say anything.
No one knew better than him about the Wei River alliance that Li Er had no choice but to sign with Jie Li Khan after the Turks went south and attacked Chang 'an.
But now, it was just as Fang Xuanling had said.
There were no abnormalities now!
But if there were abnormalities, wouldn't it be too late to say anything?
Fang Jun sighed and turned his head to look at the new Dragon Slaying Guards. It seemed that he had to train these new recruits as soon as possible, so that they could truly become sharp blades that could be unsheathed to kill the enemy.
She didn't know why Fang Jun turned around.
But the new recruits couldn't help but shiver, as if Fang Jun's gaze had the power to lower the temperature, making their necks feel cold.
"You can walk the rest of the way yourself."
Fang Xuanling patted his shoulder and said gratefully,""Although you're only sixteen, in the Great Tang, to be able to lead a garrison at sixteen and not find another person, you've made me proud.”
"There will be more opportunities in the future." Fang Jun chuckled.”
"Don't come as often as you can."
" Putting aside the fact that you've made your father proud," Fang Xuanling said faintly," you've also tricked your father quite a few times. Your father still wants to live comfortably for a few more years and grow old together with your mother.”
Fang Jun looked at Fang Xuanling in surprise. Fang Xuanling was already forty years old this year, yet he could still drive at the slightest disagreement.
"I'm asking you not to cause trouble!"
Fang Xuanling's old face turned red. He also felt that it was inappropriate to say this in front of Fang Jun. He quickly changed the topic,"In addition, you have to be careful recently. I don't know where you got these armors from, but I heard from His Majesty that someone has already had designs on these armors.”
Was he being targeted?
Fang Jun was a little surprised and secretly took this matter to heart. After bidding farewell to Fang Xuanling, Fang Jun arrived at the camp ten miles away from Chang 'an with 3,000 Dragon Slaying Guards.
The campsite occupied a large area, more than enough to accommodate twenty to thirty thousand people.
As soon as Fang Jun arrived, he noticed six middle-aged men in butler uniforms gathered outside the camp.
"Greetings, General Longson-in-law!"
Seeing Fang Jun leading the newcomers over, the six of them hurriedly came forward to greet him.
Fang Jun raised his eyebrows and glanced at them. Then, he turned his gaze to the dozens of carriages and oxcarts not far behind them, guarded by hundreds of strong servants. He asked,"Who are you?"
"I'm the butler of Duke Wei's Li Jing residence!”
"I am the steward of the Duke of E, Yuchi Jingde's residence!”
"I am the butler of Country Ying Duke Li Ji's residence!”
"I am the steward of the Yi Country Duke Qin Qiong's residence!”
"I am the butler of the Duke of Zhao, Zhangsun Wuji!”
"I am the steward of the Duke of Lu's residence!”
