Chapter 166: Better Castrated and Be an Official
he young man is a good son, it's just a pity that they still recognize the military orders of the Five Armies Dudu Mansion."These words pierced my heart.But if this were to happen to someone with a sl...Chapter 166: Better Castrated to Be a Factory Director
Su Pingbei's words left Li Chen both amused and bewildered.
But he didn't make Su Pingbei wait either.
"Fine, whatever you say."
Li Chen walked out of the inn, with his hands behind his back, he said: "But you performed well today. Many things that this palace could not have fully anticipated, I can only let you play freely. You understand it well and are considered quick-witted."
Su Pingbei immediately beamed.
It is all thanks to Your Highness's grace that I have been able to follow orders as instructed.
"That's a rather inappropriate remark."
Li Chen glanced at Su Pingbei and said, “If all the people under my command were only capable of following orders blindly, wouldn't that mean I was inept at choosing my subordinates”
Su Pingbei suddenly felt a little frightened. Just when she didn't know what to say, Li Chen said again: "Alright, this palace was just joking with you, don't be too nervous."
Li Chen shook his head. As his status rose, the saying that those in power are solitary wasn't without reason.
Some commonplace things, those below will think over and over again, not stop until they figure out the taste.
Walking out of the inn, Li Chen saw a carriage parked there.
After causing a ruckus all afternoon, Li Chen didn't want to ride anymore. Returning by carriage was naturally the best option.
It's obvious that Su Pingbei is quite knowledgeable.
"Please, Your Highness, get into the carriage," Su Pingbei chuckled.
"So thoughtful, why not castrate him and have him serve this palace exclusively I'll give you the position of eunuch in charge of the Eastern Factory." Li Chen said as he got into the carriage.
Su Pingbei's smile froze on his face, he managed a tearful grin and said stiffly, "Your... Highness, are you jesting with the general"
"Balderdash!"
Li Chen said angrily, “The third generation of your Su family only has you as a single male heir. If I were to have you castrated, not even your father nor your grandfather, the military god, would dare to stand against me!”
"Just drive your carriage well, I'll rest for a while. If it isn't smooth, you'll be sent to guard the East Palace gate."
Su Pingbei was overjoyed upon hearing this.
As the saying goes, "being close to a monarch is like being near a tiger." Li Chen's intentions remained a mystery. He felt his cultivation was still shallow and couldn't see through him.
But there was one thing he understood, that being the driver for those in power, seemingly a lowly task, actually represented a position of trust.
Who drove the carriage for Emperor Taizu when he went south on his inspection tour after founding the country
Grand Uncle, with the single character Pingjiang Wang, the Grand Marshal of all the world's armies!
Su Pingbei nodded and bowed, sitting in the coachman's position, and said with a smug air: "Your Highness, rest assured, I will absolutely drive the carriage as if walking on flat ground!"
If the prince is compared to the Taizu Emperor, wouldn't that mean that this future king-in-law also has a chance, to become a duke with the rank of a first-class general, and the supreme commander of all military forces
With such thoughts, Su Ping's eyes sparkled with excitement, his smile stretching wide. He felt a sense of anticipation for the future, envisioning boundless honor and prestige as someone second only to the emperor. He believed that the glory of General Su's Mansion would undoubtedly be restored under his leadership.
Instantly, Su Pingbei's grip on the reins tightened.
As Li Chen was returning to the East Palace, a six-person sedan chair, reserved for officials of the first rank, landed softly at the gate of the Duan residence.
After finishing his day's work, Duan Jjiang, returning home from the Cabinet, got out of his carriage and was immediately met by a steward who led him inside. A maid with hot water and towels was waiting to serve him.
