The Only Way!
Li Manor, in a side hall.
Li Jing sat in the main seat, while Han Hun and Li Chaoge sat in the second seat.
Li Chaoge was still blushing, playing with his fingers with his head lowered, looking like a shy newlywed wife.
Han Hun glanced at Li Chaoge. He really wanted to ask why Li Chaoge was so shy. They hadn't done anything before, but now, they couldn't clear their names even if they jumped into the Yellow River.
He sighed, feeling like he had been played by Li Chaoge.
But the key was that he could not refute it.
He knew that if he went to explain, not only would he not be able to win the forgiveness of the Li family, but he would also receive a big gift bag from the Li Jing father and son trio.
After all, he had seen how much Li Chaoge was doted on by the Li family.
Moreover, they loved him and treated him exceptionally well. This made him even more unable to speak.
As expected, those melodramatic novels were all made up. The family was so well-educated. How could there be a situation where the whole family mistreated their son-in-law?
If the whole family looked down on their son-in-law, why would they marry their daughter? Wouldn't they be making things difficult for themselves?
Since he chose you as his son-in-law, it proves that he has accepted you. Why would he look down on you?
Li Jing's gaze swept across the two young men. He saw that his daughter, who was always in a hurry, rarely showed such a gentle appearance. Moreover, his son-in-law was secretly peeping at his daughter with a deep expression. The smile on his face became even more.
Han Hun thought to himself, My deep feelings???”
"Han Hun."
Li Jing was the first to speak. He said,"What are your plans for the future?"
Han Hun's heart skipped a beat. Why did he marry Li Chaoge? Wasn't it for now?
He looked directly at Li Jing and did not hesitate to probe anything. Instead, he said directly,"Father-in-law, this son-in-law is not talented, but he happens to have some martial arts skills. He is familiar with hardship and endurance. Moreover, this son-in-law respects those soldiers who have bathed in blood and defended the country for the Great Tang. In this son-in-law's eyes, such a man is worthy of being called a man!”
"Therefore, I hope to become one of them, to serve the country and protect my family.”
As the Great Tang's God of War, Li Jing had dedicated his entire life to the military camp and to protecting the country.
Therefore, when he heard Han Hun's words, he became more and more satisfied with Han Hun, and the smile on his face grew wider.
"Good!" he said with satisfaction. Well said! Why didn't a man go to the battlefield? If he had the ambition to join the army, he would be a real man.”
He thought for a moment and said," How about this? Why don't you follow me to the military camp to gain some experience? However, it's not good for me to treat you too specially. You can start from the rank of Decurion."”
"Decurion…"
Han Hun frowned slightly. The starting point was a decanus, which was not considered low. However, this was still far from his goal.
He had to be of a higher status than Li Chaoge in a short period of time so that he could get in touch with more important things and investigate the Iron Army of Andong.
Therefore, he was not too satisfied with this.
However, he also knew that although Li Jing was the Minister of War, he could not be too obvious about his favoritism to avoid attracting gossip…
Han Hun could not help but hesitate.
"Father."
At this moment, Li Chaoge, who had been playing with his fingers, suddenly said,""Father, you know how capable husband is. He is better than me in martial arts. If you let him become a decanus, isn't that using a sledgehammer to kill a chicken?”
"So, Father, you should make an exception and let him go to a position that matches his identity and ability.”
Han Hun's heart skipped a beat when he heard what Li Chaoge said.
He quickly turned to Li Chaoge and saw him smiling at him. It was a beautiful and warm smile, like the sun in spring, shining into his heart in an instant.
Chaoge, you…"
Li Chaoge bit her lip and put her hand on Han Hun's palm. She smiled and said,""You're my husband, so I naturally have to help you.”
At the same time, she muttered to herself in her heart,""I know that you want to find out the real murderer for the brothers of the Iron Army of Tranquil East. I know that you're always in extreme pain and anxiety. I don't know how much I can help you, but I'm satisfied even if I can make you frown less and make your fake painful smile come from your heart.”
Hearing Li Chaoge's words and feeling the warmth in his hand, Han Hun's pupils shrank.
But in the next moment, he suddenly retracted his hand.
No!
He couldn't have any other thoughts about Li Chaoge.
He must not hurt her.
He could bear the pain and danger alone. Li Chaoge was a good girl, and he couldn't let her get hurt.
Seeing Han Hun retract his hand as if he had been pricked by a hedgehog, Li Chaoge couldn't help but sigh.
She knew that she still had a long way to go before she could break through Han Hun's defenses.
Li Jing didn't notice his daughter and son-in-law's little actions. He just frowned and thought for a moment before saying,"I know what Soul Han is capable of, but the military camp isn't like any other place. In the military camp, if you want to obtain a high enough position, you need military merits as a foundation.”
" Even you, Chaoge, started as a decurion. You've been through many battles and accumulated enough military merits to get to where you are today, so…"
Li Jing shook his head.
It wasn't that he didn't want to give the green light.
However, his status was too high. He was the Grand Marshal of the army. Who knew how many people were watching him? Once he made an exception, how would the others abide by the rules?
When the time came, if you wanted to stuff people into the military camp, he would also be in a high position. Then, how could the military camp be fair?
What about those ordinary people who worked hard to climb up the ranks by relying on military achievements?
Seeing this, Han Hun knew that Li Jing's thoughts would be difficult to change. He shook his head and could only accept his fate.
Starting from a Decurion was at least faster than him climbing up from a new recruit.
However, it was really difficult to take revenge.
"There's another way!"
Li Chaoge suddenly said.
"Father, there's another way. If husband can really amaze the world with a single feat, then his status in the army will definitely not be low!"”
"What?"
Han Hun quickly looked at Li Chaoge.
Li Jing suddenly thought of something and said,"Are you talking about…the Chang 'an Tournament?”
Li Chaoge nodded and said," That's right. His Majesty will host the Chang 'an Tournament personally. If you can satisfy His Majesty, he will not let you waste your talent."”
"But…"
"No buts!"
Li Chaoge stood up and said," Since I'm married to you, I must think about your future. I'll go to the palace to meet the emperor. Even if I have to kneel in front of the palace, I'll ask the emperor to give you a chance."”
