"In the army, military discipline is the strictest.”
"After my Imperial Father established the country, the law and discipline were even stricter. He had zero tolerance for corrupt officials.”
"It is true that General Blue Jade is unaware of this matter. However, if those people were not usually spoiled by General Blue Jade, how would they dare to do such a dirty thing under the eyes of the Great General?”
"If we can temporarily suppress this matter with the excuse of war today, then in the future, on the battlefield, can we use the excuse of war to burn and kill the people and disregard human lives?”
Zhu Zhen did not answer directly. Instead, he threw a question at everyone.
When they heard Zhu Zhen's words, everyone's expressions changed.
Especially Xu Da, his expression was incomparably ugly. Zhu Zhen's words seemed to be light, but in reality, it was a slap in the face, causing his face to instantly burn with pain.
"Eighth brother, you…"
Zhu Di was speechless. He looked at Zhu Zhen. Although he felt that Zhu Zhen's words made sense, the problem was that the situation was not right. Zhu Zhen was too ignorant of the overall situation.
"This…"
Xu Miaoyun was speechless. She didn't expect that she would be stumped by a little kid like Zhu Zhen. To be honest, she didn't know how to answer him.
"You…"
Lan Yu glared at Zhu Zhen, her expression burning with anger. Initially, Xu Da had already wavered when he saw everyone's request. He did not expect Zhu Zhen to come out and interfere. Now, looking at Xu Da's appearance, it seemed that there was a change. He couldn't help but look at Zhu Zhen in annoyance.
"Your Highness the King of Wei is right. The army is about to set off, so the military discipline should be stricter. If everyone uses the war as an excuse to escape punishment, how can we lead the army?”
"Someone come…"
Xu Da steeled his heart and planned to punish Lan Yu.
"Wait…"
But in the next second, Zhu Zhen spoke again, stopping Xu Da.
"What else does Your Highness want to say?"
Xu Da frowned and looked at Zhu Zhen as he asked in puzzlement. He did not know what Zhu Zhen was up to again.
"Great General, I don't think there's a need for this 50 strokes. After all, General Blue Jade's crime is only that he didn't manage his subordinates well. However, this also indirectly showed that General Blue Jade was lacking in managing his subordinates. How about this? Wasn't General Blue Jade originally a vanguard officer? This position had a lot of responsibilities. General Blue Jade was clearly unable to take on this position.”
"Great General, why don't we remove General Lan Yu from his position as the vanguard and wait for his future performance?”
Zhu Zhen said.
"What? You want to take away my Vanguard Official? Are you kidding me? If I, Lan Yu, don't become the Vanguard Official, who else can take on this heavy responsibility?”
When Lan Yu heard this, his face instantly darkened. This made him even more unhappy than being beaten fifty times.
Xu Da and the others frowned as well. They looked at Zhu Zhen with strange expressions.
"Lan Yu, oh Lan Yu, don't be too conceited. Don't tell me you think that the army can't fight without you as the vanguard.”
When Zhu Zhen heard Lan Yu's words, he looked at him and said disdainfully.
Blue Jade was a little too arrogant. He was arrogant and indulgent in his actions, which led to the disaster that followed. Now, one could see the flaw in his character. He had already made a mistake, but he still had an expression that said,"Who else could it be but me."
"Hmph, this general is speaking the truth. In terms of military formations, I might still be lacking. However, in terms of bravery, I, Blue Jade, won't lose to anyone.”
Lan Yu snorted. He had been waiting for Chang Yuchun for many years and had learned a martial art that was not afraid of death. When he killed his enemies, he was indeed ruthless and not afraid of death. This was also one of the reasons why he was able to obtain Xu Da's recognition and was appointed as the vanguard.
"Tsk…"
However, just as Lan Yu finished speaking, Zhu Zhen scoffed.
"Does Your Highness the King of Wei not agree with my words?”
"Humph, alright then. Your Highness, please find someone in this camp. If this person is more valiant than me, then why not give him my position as Vanguard Officer?”
Lan Yu was very unconvinced and said to Zhu Zhen.
"What if I really find it?”
Zhu Zhen looked at Lan Yu when he heard this. His eyes immediately lit up.
"Hmph, didn't I say that I'll give him the Vanguard Officer? Not only that, but I'll also be his personal attendant and help him lead his horse.”
Lan Yu said loudly.
"It's not up to you. You're not the Great General.”
When Zhu Zhen heard this, a hint of joy flashed across his eyes. However, it was only for a moment. Immediately after, he looked away from Lan Yu as if he was looking elsewhere. In reality, he was looking at Xu Da as he spoke.
Xu Da was stunned. Hearing Zhu Zhen's words, weren't these words directed at him? If Lan Yu wasn't the Great General, then he was. Was Zhu Zhen here for him?
At that moment, Xu Da was somewhat speechless. He was even more curious in his heart. Could it be that there was really someone in the army who was more ferocious than Lan Yu?
"You…"
"Great General, please promise me that if you can find someone in this army who is more brave than me, I am willing to give up my position as the vanguard.”
"Please grant my wish, Great General."
Lan Yu was furious. He was about to go crazy from being forced by a child. He didn't care about it anymore. He looked at Xu Da and said, indicating that he wanted Xu Da to agree to this matter.
This time, the scene became interesting. Xu Da speechlessly looked at the scene in front of him. He glanced at Lan Yu and then at Zhu Zhen. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He had never expected that a child like Zhu Zhen would cause such a mess.
"Alright, I agree. If anyone here can defeat Lan Yu, they can replace Lan Yu as the vanguard.”
"But…"
Xu Da looked at Zhu Zhen.
"Your Highness, if there is no such person, then can you forgive Lan Yu first and let him make up for his mistakes?”
"Sure, of course, but you have to keep your word, Great General.”
Zhu Zhen said with a smile.
"Of course. As a man and a Great General, how can I go back on my word?”
Xu Da nodded his head. He was very curious about what Zhu Zhen knew. How could he not know the capabilities of the people in his military camp? How could there be such a person? He did not believe it.
"I feel that your father is going to be tricked by my eighth brother.”
Zhu Di looked at Zhu Zhen's expression and suddenly felt something was wrong. He said to Xu Miaoyun.
Xu Miaoyun heard this and looked at Zhu Zhen. Looking at Zhu Zhen's smile, Xu Miaoyun suddenly had the same thought. It was as if her father had fallen into a trap.
