Li Jing's Invitation to the Ministry of War Was as Good as Cheng Yaojin!
However, even though they were shouting in their hearts that the Emperor and the other two were shameless old thieves, Fang Xuanling and Li Jing still felt very heartwarming when they saw such a pleasing newlywed couple being lovey-dovey in front of them.
In this world, there was nothing more heartwarming than a sweet relationship.
Zhou Ru saw that Fang Xuanling and Li Jing didn't seem to leave immediately. He thought for a moment and said with a smile,"Milords, go in and have a cup of tea.”
Fang Xuanling and Li Jingzheng had the same intention, but after hearing Zhou Ru's words, they gave way and nodded before entering the main hall.
Zhou Ru asked the servant maids to prepare a pot of good tea before exchanging pleasantries with Fang Xuanling.
Zhou Ru was quite interested in these two historical figures.
Although he was unwilling to participate in the treacherous officialdom, it was not a bad thing to be able to make friends with some famous people in history.
Fang Xuanling first exchanged a few words with Zhou Ru, and then said,"Fuma is perceptive and can see the whole picture from the details. This old man really admires this ability.”
"May I know who your master is?"
Zhou Ru didn't even need to listen to Fang Xuanling's inner thoughts to know his intentions.
This was to get information from him and to probe his background.
In the business world of his previous life, Zhou Ru had seen all kinds of methods.
So he could tell at a glance.
He chuckled and said," I'm just a poor kid from the countryside. How could I have the opportunity to learn from a master? I just like to guess blindly."”
When Li Shi Min chose him as the Prince Consort, he had investigated his ancestors for more than ten generations, so he wasn't afraid of exposing anything.
If there was a problem, he would not have the chance to become the Prince Consort.
"That means he's self-taught."
Fang Xuanling wasn't surprised. He just wanted to see if there was anything the Imperial Court hadn't found, but now it seemed that Zhou Ru had done it himself.
To Fang Xuanling, a person who was born in a Humble Class and had no master teacher to guide him, yet possessed such terrifying abilities, was even more terrifying.
And even more outstanding!
This was completely different from those who had been taught by master teachers and nurtured since they were young!
At least in terms of talent and potential, he would definitely be able to crush the disciples of those famous master teachers!
Such a person was like the Sleeping Dragon of the Three Kingdoms.
It would definitely not appear even once in a few hundred years!
Fang Xuanling's heart ached when he thought about how such an outstanding, talented, and limitless person could not serve the country.
"Fuma, are you willing to come to the Bureau of Military Personnel?"
At this moment, Li Jing suddenly spoke. As a general, he didn't have Fang Xuanling's many twists and turns.
He looked straight at Zhou Ru and said,"If you come to the Ministry of War, I guarantee that your status will not be lower than Cheng Yaojin and the others!”
Fang Xuanling was a little surprised. He didn't expect Li Jing to invite him directly.
And the moment he opened his mouth, he made such a big promise!
Needless to say, Cheng Yaojin and the others were all generals with real power.
Since Li Jing dared to promise that Zhou Ru's status would not be lower than Cheng Yaojin and the others.
The starting point would definitely be a position with real power. This was more powerful than some civil officials!
After all, in ancient times, one wouldn't panic if they had soldiers.
Moreover, the Great Tang was founded on martial arts, and Li Shimin had often led soldiers into battle, so the status of a general was not inferior to that of a civil official, and in fact, was slightly higher.
This showed how powerful Li Jing's promise was.
This was much better than the fourth-grade official position that Fang Xuanling had mentioned.
It could also be seen how much Li Jing valued Zhou Ru.
Fang Xuanling stopped talking and looked at Zhou Ru. He wanted to know what Zhou Ru would do in the face of such a big promise and invitation from Li Jing.
The little wife looked at her husband quietly. As a princess, she naturally knew the strength of Li Jing's promise.
However, she would not make a sound to affect her husband's judgment.
Other women might hope that their husbands would have more power and higher status.
But Li Jiage wouldn't.
She only hoped that her husband could happily do what he liked.
That was all.
As for other things, she would never force her husband.
No matter what choice her husband made, she would fully support him.
She wanted to be her husband's considerate little cotton-padded jacket ~
Zhou Ru didn't expect Li Jing to suddenly send out an invitation without any warning.
However, he had already made up his mind. His determination had already been trained to become a heart of stone in his previous life.
In this life, he would only soften for his little wife.
As for others, no one could change his decision.
He still had a calm smile on his face, and there was no change in his expression because of Li Jing's words. He said,"A person's life is very short. Some pursue fame and fortune, some pursue indifference, some want to transcend the secular world, and some only want peace of mind.”
"Everyone has their own reasons for their choices. These choices are neither good nor bad.”
"As for me, I only want to be with my wife for the rest of my life. Other than that, I have no other pursuits.”
"To be free and unrestrained for a lifetime and to spend a lifetime with my lover is the best.”
"So General Li, I'm sorry. It's not that you're not sincere enough, but I really don't want to go to the vanity fair.”
Zhou Ru's voice was calm, and every word was clear.
When the three people present heard his words, their expressions were different.
His wife was touched.
" Sob, sob. My husband rejected such a good offer just to be with me forever. Sob, sob, so
My husband is so good, and I must repay him. I must give birth to many, many babies for my husband. Eight to ten won't be too little, and a hundred won't be too much. Li Jiage, you can do it! Li Jiage, you have to work hard!
Zhou Ru, who heard his wife's thoughts, was speechless.
His eyelids twitched, and he panicked.
How should he turn his little wife around?
On the other hand, one of the two big shots of the current dynasty had a solemn expression, while the other had a sigh.
Fang Xuanling's expression was so serious that he wanted to perform a 180 backflips in front of Zhou Ru and beg him to change his mind.
As for Li Jing, he couldn't help but sigh with regret.
The more he understood Zhou Ru, the more Li Jing valued him.
Zhou Ru's bearing, ability, and background were all based on Li Jing.
This made Li Jing think highly of Zhou Ru.
He even wanted to groom Zhou Ru as his successor.
However, Zhou Ru was unwilling, so he could only sigh.
Looking at Li Jing's sad face, Zhou Ru thought for a moment and chuckled."Although I don't want to become an official, I am very grateful for General Li's kindness.”
"What a coincidence…"
Zhou Ru took out two identical objects from his pocket.
He smiled and said,"I made something fun for my wife. I happened to have a lot of materials at that time, so I made two."”
"So, I'll give the extra one to General Li as a way to repay General Li's favor.”
Hearing Zhou Ru's words, his wife and Li Jing subconsciously raised their heads and looked at the object in Zhou Ru's hand.
They were fully aware of Zhou Ru's miraculous abilities.
Therefore, when they heard that this was something that Zhou Ru had personally made, they could not help but be curious.
Even Li Jing, who was a little sad, was attracted by his curiosity.
"Husband, what is this?" his wife asked softly.
Although Li Jing and Fang Xuanling didn't say anything, they looked at Zhou Ru eagerly.
Zhou Ru smiled and handed a long tube to his wife. He said with a smile,"This is a very magical thing. It can grant the user the ability of a god.”
"An ability that only immortals have?"
Everyone was shocked.
Zhou Ru handed the other cylinder to Li Jing. He looked at Li Jing and said meaningfully,""I believe that Lord Li will like this very much.”
"With this item, I can't guarantee anything else.”
"But with it, from now on, the Great Tang army will fight against its enemies…"
Li Jing suddenly stared at Zhou Ru. Zhou Ru said calmly,""The Great Tang can seize the initiative and no longer fear any ambushes!”
" Who dares to ambush the Tang army…"
He chuckled,"That's courting death."”
Li Jing suddenly stood up.
His eyes turned red, and his breathing quickened.
He held the long cylinder that Zhou Ru gave him tightly and stared at Zhou Ru. He asked,"Really?"
