Peace Order-Chapter 1575 - 23: Only Regretting the Ordinary Back Then
Xue Shuangtao’s view of Li Guanyi is still just that fourteen-year-old boy Guest Elder.
Just like this.
Ji Zichang looked at the Prince Qin in front of him, who had shed his murderous aura, seemingly returning to his youthful self.
Yet, he couldn’t help but think of his childhood friend who had ’passed away because of illness’.
Ji Zichang was drunk, directly extended his arm over Prince Qin’s shoulder, and, laughing loudly, said tipsily: "Hahaha, no matter what, you will eventually get married. With our relationship, when you have children, why not arrange a betrothal with my daughter?"
Ji Zichang extended his finger: "If it’s a boy and a girl, they’ll be married."
"If you also have a daughter, then they’ll be sisters."
"What do you say?!"
"It’ll be truly marrying into each other’s families."
Prince Qin rolled his eyes, kicked the Red Emperor off his shoulder, and jokingly scolded: "Old relic."
Ha????
The Red Emperor was stupefied.
It seemed Prince Qin was also drunk, not from the fine wine but because of that scroll, rudely showing a middle finger, and boldly said: "My old man was starved to death and met my mother who gave him a snack; I, earning only a tael of silver a month in Huichun Hall, was kicked around and met Miss."
"It’s a tradition of the Li Family."
"Only poverty attracts romance!"
"One must sacrifice their wealth to see Yue Lao’s red thread."
"You have to go out and seek it yourself!"
Prince Qin triumphantly said: "In the future, if I have a son, I’ll kick him out at fifteen or sixteen. Maybe he’ll encounter it."
"Well, confiscate that kid’s money."
"Just don’t starve him."
Ji Zichang laughed loudly, saying: "Sons are like that, but you might not directly have a son. What if it’s a daughter? What if your daughter meets a Ranger on a Divine Steed, what will you do?" 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
The current Third Divine General paused his drinking motion and retorted:
"What if it’s yours?"
"Your daughter would be as much a daughter to you as mine is."
Both the Red Emperor and Prince Qin envisioned their daughters going out and encountering a Ranger riding a yellow horse at their doorstep.
Silence.
Prince Qin and the Red Emperor stared at each other speechlessly.
Then Prince Qin laughed heartily: "Let’s see who dares to park a horse at my door!"
"Just have to take one of my moves."
"Shameless!"
The two of them were in the Red Emperor’s treasure vault, boldly drinking and chatting, shedding their worldly identities and responsibilities, just being themselves, with burdens lifted, they could truly indulge. Li Guanyi’s physique wouldn’t even succumb to Whale Hunter’s Thousand-Day Drunk, while Ji Zichang ended up drunk, disorderly waving his arms, drunkenly saying:
"Well, I don’t know when you guys will marry. Never mind, just pick something from my treasure vault and take it with you."
"Consider it my wedding gift for you two!"
"Anything goes!"
"Take anything!"
Li Guanyi said: "This is like the ancestral secret treasure of the Red Emperor lineage, aren’t you afraid I’ll take something really valuable?"
Ji Zichang seemingly heard something funny, clutching his stomach and laughing madly, ’mocking’ saying: "Hahaha, these secret treasures often contain items whose value is hard to determine. With your kind of fortune, taking the most valuable item is impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Li Guanyi was slightly tipsy, feeling unsatisfied.
Yet, despite the dissatisfaction, he had no intention to extort his friend.
So he casually grabbed a somewhat old and plain wooden box, which seemed unworthy, and stuffed it into his bosom.
"Alright, this one."
"Hahaha, that item looks obviously worthless!"
Ji Zichang, drunk and prone, felt the whole world spinning, murmuring: "Your fortune is really poor."
"You say the nation is unsettled, but when it’s completely settled, where will I be?!"
"I truly don’t want to be a king anymore, my friend, let’s make a promise."
He raised his wine cup, softly saying: "If the world is at peace, I only wish to be a teacher or a village doctor, self-sufficient."
"Either educate in governance, or heal from sickness."
"One must do something."
"If neither is attainable."
"Then let me be a Ranger, gallop freely across the world, letting the steed run freely, going anywhere, chasing the wind, reaching the ends of the earth, the corners of the sea, to see how people there live."
"To see this world you pacified."
"This Golden Age."
"If I can grow old here, it would be best!"
Li Guanyi softly said: "It will come to pass." He raised his cup, clinked it with Ji Zichang’s, Ji Zichang smiled, wanting to drink, but accidentally knocked his cup over, the cup shattering on the ground, spilling wine everywhere.
Ji Zichang drank until he was asleep, lying there drunkenly.
Li Guanyi didn’t mind, just drank alone, gazing at the familiar handwriting on the scroll, his expression tranquil.
A beauty grants kindness, the world is in turmoil, what of this body.
But the chaos lasting three hundred years finally shows signs of ending.
A promise made then must be kept.
Leading a thousand troops, heading to Chen Country!
Now, the weapons and armor hidden in the White Tiger Sect’s secret vault have all been acquired, brought to Jiangnan, once re-smelted, Li Guanyi can comprehensively arm his direct trusted Qilin Guard from head to toe, then he must re-enter Xiyi City, forge alliances, and head to the grassland.
