Chapter 2: The Virtuous King Mingtao

Ming Tao looked at the land full of green crops in the distance, and he couldn't say whether he was happy or lost. This should have been the land of his Holy Dynasty Kingdom, but now it has fallen into the hands of the people of Ohara. Clenching his hands hard, Ming Tao secretly swore in his heart: sooner or later, one day, he would definitely turn this place into the land of his holy pilgrimage again.

"Don't look any further, it's getting dark, let's go back to the city first!" Mu Yunfeng walked to Ming Tao's side and said with infinite emotion. Seeing his land being occupied by other countrymen, he felt equally uncomfortable. However, he did not have Ming Tao's great feelings of worrying about the people and the country. Therefore, he is destined to live a simpler and happier life than Ming Tao.

"I don't want to go back." Shaking his head, Ming Tao said helplessly. He also knew that even if he was standing here all the time, he couldn't change anything. But when he returned to the city and faced the map, he couldn't think of a good way to defend against the enemy. It's better to have a wide view here, and the mood will not be too depressed.

"It's nearly thirty miles away from here, and when you don't go back and wait for the gates, the gates are closed."

"Then stay out of town for one night." Turning around, Ming Tao said with a smile. Although he is the prince, but because his father has been fighting outside the war when he was a child, he did not return home, and his mother died early, although he is nominally the son of Queen Ma, but Queen Ma not only has to manage the harem, but also has to deal with the official documents that have been piled up because his father is not in the capital. How can she have time to care about him, a child who is not her biological at all. So when he was a child, except for a few palace maids and eunuchs who ignored him, no one cared about him at all. That kind of life is worse than the average child. It wasn't until he once showed excellent learning ability in the academy that he got the treatment that a prince deserved. It's a pity that because of his talent for martial arts, he left the palace early, followed Marshal Mu's side, and has been stationed at the border pass. Eat and live with the soldiers, not to mention just outside the city gates, even in the wilderness, he doesn't know how many times he has lived.

"I know you're a good and bold person, but there are often soldiers from the Great Plains Kingdom passing by here, and if they see you here, it won't be safe for us to come here in the future." Mu Yunfeng persuaded. His father has a chance to return to Beijing easily, and they have a rare free time here, if something happens to Ming Tao because of this, his father will not deal with him in the law!

"That's not just right, we have a chance to send troops." Ming Tao said happily. Just because there was no excuse to send troops, he has been patient until now and has not sent troops to attack Ohara Province. If those people from the Great Plains Kingdom hurt him, his father would send troops to seek justice for him for the sake of face no matter how much he wanted to live in peace! But unfortunately, the generals of Ohara Province are not fools. Knowing that the treasury of both countries is empty now, it is not the best time to fight a war at all, so naturally he will not take the initiative to cause trouble.

"Can't you put your mind to anything else?" Knowing that Ming Tao's mind was full of these lost lands, Mu Yunfeng couldn't help but sigh and ask.

"What do you think?" Ming Tao turned around and asked. As a general, if you don't want to protect the country and the country, how can you start your mission?

"Think about the fief that the emperor wants to give you or something, it's really not good, you can also think about your future wife candidate." Mu Yunfeng said angrily.

"Are those up to me?" Ming Tao smiled bitterly again. For those things that are not within his ability, he has long learned not to ask, just waiting for the results. It's not that he doesn't want to fight for himself, he just doesn't want to embarrass his father, who is the only relative he is.

He had seven brothers and three younger sisters, except for the youngest sister, who left the palace with the queen when she was very young, and everyone else had their own little abacus. These have already upset the father who had worked hard for half his life to get a stable life. , he didn't want to make it difficult for his father to do anything about him.

As for marriage, he never cared. In his opinion, it's just to find a woman. It was just a matter of bearing birth to him. The daughters in the capital are delicate and weak, as if a gust of wind can blow people away. He was afraid to look at such women, let alone what to do to them. This is also the reason why he has never married a wife when he is still twenty years old.

"You...... Alas! Mu Yunfeng sighed helplessly, he didn't know how to persuade Tao instead. Whoever let him be his follower since he was a child, listening to him has become a habit, and it is not ordinarily difficult for him to persuade him.

Alas! In fact, his situation is not better than Ming Tao, at least Ming Tao can be with the person he likes at any time, he can't marry home if he has someone he likes, he can only put it in his heart and think about it secretly. In comparison, he might as well be as relaxed as Ming Tao, who doesn't want to come to anything! Alas!

"Let's go back!" Seeing that the sunset in the distance had already set below the horizon, and it was about to get dark, Ming Tao finally stopped looking into the distance, and turned his head to Mu Yunfeng and said.

He also knew that Yun Feng was for his good. However, he has long been accustomed to living alone, and he has long been unaware of how to respond to the concerns of others, and even in front of this good friend who grew up together, he habitually wants to hide his true feelings.

"Back to ...... Get back? Finally going back to the city? Hearing Ming Tao's words, Mu Yunfeng asked in surprise after a pause.

"It's getting dark, what are you doing here if you don't go back to the city?" Ming Tao looked at Mu Yunfeng's silly appearance and asked with a smile. He was just in a bad mood, and he didn't want to abuse himself. There were comfortable houses in the city, did he think he wanted to live in the middle of nowhere! He is still the chief general of the first army, and based on this reaction, he is really worried about whether he will be able to go to the battlefield if there is a real war.

"You...... Forget it, I know I can't talk about you, I'll lead the horse. After Mu Yunfeng finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the place where the horses were stored. In fact, their horses are grazing not far away, but Ming Tao is also a prince no matter what he says, he can't really let him lead the horse himself!

When they returned to the city gate, Ming Tao and Mu Yunfeng entered the city just before the city gate was closed. Although the soldiers could not really keep them out of the city gates, neither of them was used to the use of privilege. Therefore, in many cases, if they returned to the city too late, they preferred to find a place to live outside the city rather than let the soldiers open the gates. Fortunately, the two of them were one step faster today, otherwise they would have to spend the night in the wilderness.

Back in the general's mansion, Ming Tao and Mu Yunfeng walked into the living room together, where the two had dinner together.

The two took the wet cloth towel handed by the servant, simply washed their hands and faces, and walked to the table that had been prepared to start eating.

"Lord Wang, young general, people are coming to the palace today, and the old slave has already arranged them in the bamboo garden." The housekeeper Fu'an walked over and said to the two. Although this is the General's Palace, His Royal Highness King Xianwang also lives here. Naturally, the decree of the Imperial Palace will also be read here.

"I see." Picking up the dishes and chopsticks, Ming Tao said disapprerovingly. Every year his father would send someone to bring him something useful, and he had become accustomed to it. Although the people in the palace came a little early this year, maybe his father was afraid that he would forget it later! Actually, he didn't care too much about the emperor's rewards, what he cared about was his father's little concern for him.
