Volume 1 Son of Destiny Chapter 29 Jiang Heng's Invitation
Jiang Heng was also stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect Mo Li to say what he thought in his heart so bluntly.
Mo Li is right, now is not the era of war, there are very few wars, and it is too difficult for military generals to get military merit promotions, so Jiang Heng wants to use Mo Li to improve the status of Mo Ren's enemies in the court.
As long as Mo Li can obtain the title of the Son of Destiny, then he will have a supreme position in the Temple of Heavenly Mandate, and in this way, the status of the entire Mo family in the Jiang Kingdom will also rise, and the emperor will use the Mo enemy even more.
At that time, he will casually assign a task to the Mohan enemy, and use this excuse to raise the rank of the Mocan enemy, and when the time comes, it is not impossible to be promoted to a second-rank general, or even the position of a first-rank military marquis.
However, from the meaning of Mo Li's words, it also indirectly shows that Mo Li already knows that his father belongs to the Three Princes' faction.
In Mingli, Mo Rendi has never expressed support for any prince, but secretly he supports Jiang Heng, even if the emperor has placed eyeliner in the ministers' mansions, he doesn't know, but Mo Li sees it.
Jiang Heng looked at Mo Li and said solemnly: "So, to participate in the selection, are you willing or unwilling?"
If it was put before returning to Mo Mansion, Mo Li would definitely not think about it and refused directly, but now that he has returned to Mo Mansion, and this matter is related to the future of Mo Mansion, Mo Li is really hard to refuse.
"Your Highness has a great plan. Mo Li smiled, he felt that with Jiang Heng's vision, he would not be limited to just one throne, even if it was the entire Jiang country, Jiang Heng was too small.
Jiang Heng's vision is in the world, in the entire Heavenly Mandate Continent, he wants to unify the entire Heavenly Mandate Continent, if possible, he will also pull the Heavenly Mandate Divine Temple down to that high position, he has never said this in front of Mo Li, but Mo Li seems to know it.
However, in the matter of pulling the Temple of Heavenly Destiny down to a high position, Mo Li and Jiang Heng were on the same line, because sooner or later he would have to face the Goddess of Heavenly Destiny, so he would not refuse Jiang Heng's request.
However, I can't just agree like this, I can't ask me to do anything, I have to promise to do something, even if you are the king of Zhenbei, even if you are the god of war, but I also want to save face.
"Forgive me for not obeying my fate!" Mo Li said again.
After Jiang Heng heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, he obviously didn't expect Mo Li to choose to refuse.
"Don't you want to go to the Heavenly Mandate Temple to find a way to complete the nine veins, don't you want to embark on cultivation?" Jiang Heng asked.
Even if he didn't know that Mo Li had already entered the cultivation, so he would ask such a question, if he knew, it was estimated that he would want to slap Mo Li to death.
Mo Li smiled faintly, looking a little profound: "Your Highness, I am a person who has died once, and I have died once, and I have only discovered that there are many important things in life, and those things are often incomparable to cultivation, so it doesn't matter to me whether I enter cultivation or not." ”
This sentence, half of Mo Li is talking nonsense, but the other half is true, it is really because he died once that he really realized that there are many people around him who need to be rare.
However, the second half of his sentence is obviously very false, he knows what kind of situation he will face in the future, so it is very important for him to enter the cultivation, but he has already entered the cultivation, so he will talk nonsense in a serious way.
"Yo... I didn't expect you to die once, and you still understood your life thoroughly, it's amazing!"
Jiang Heng's words obviously didn't come from the heart, he just felt that Mo Li must be playing some tricks.
Jiang Heng suddenly let out a burst of malicious laughter, because just now, he thought of a reason that Mo Li couldn't refuse.
So Jiang Heng said: "Alas... It seems that I can't call you anymore, so in this case, I have no choice but to ask the military department to give you a military order, and let you participate in the selection on behalf of the military department. ”
After Mo Li heard this, he frowned slightly, but you have a good plan, I have a wall ladder, and he Mo Li is not a paper paste, so he instantly thought of a countermeasure.
Mo Li said: "If Your Highness really does this, it's a big deal that I resign from my official position, after I become a civilian, the orders of the military department will not be able to call me." ”
When the voice fell, Mo Li actually raised the corners of his mouth arrogantly.
"I said you kid is still energetic, right?" Jiang Heng said angrily.
Mo Li said: "Your Highness, I'm just a small ranger general, only a five-grade general, and there are people in the military department who are more powerful than me, why do you have to let me participate?"
Mo Li was a little puzzled, why did Jiang Heng have to be so persistent? If he could really win the top spot in the selection competition, it might help his father improve his status in the court, but he was not absolutely sure of winning, and there were many powerful geniuses in all the countries of the world.
"Your five-rank ranger general is not small, your face is bigger. ”
Jiang Heng said: "According to the laws of the imperial court, the officials of the third rank and the civil officials are reviewed and arranged by the Ministry of Officials, and the military attache of the third rank and the lower rank will be promoted by the military department according to their personal military performance, but you are personally sealed by His Majesty, so you, the ranger general, have a big face." ”
Hearing Jiang Heng say this, Mo Li was also stunned for a while, indeed as Jiang Heng said, the emperor would indeed not interfere with the officials of the three grades to accept their fate, at most he just glanced at the chapter after the final list was drawn up by the Ministry of Officials or the Military Department.
"From this point of view, Your Majesty should have some other purpose in conferring this official position on me. Mo Li muttered in his heart, he didn't want Jiang Heng to hear such words.
Mo Li looked at Jiang Heng and asked, "Why does Your Highness have to let me go?"
"Because you're strong. Jiang Heng said, "Those so-called geniuses of various countries, in my opinion, they are just flowers in the greenhouse, and you are indistinguishable under the four realms, you alone are enough to destroy them all, so I came to you as a friend." ”
Jiang Heng paused, and then said: "I am now inviting you as a friend, but if you still don't agree, then I can only rely on my identity to force you to go." ”
Mo Li couldn't help but laugh again after hearing this, and said, "Your Highness, if you use the military department to pressure me, I would rather resign, I don't believe that you have any other ways to force me." ”
Jiang Heng was noncommittal when he heard this, he just smiled treacherously and said, "Yes, I heard my father say that Princess Qingyao is an adult, and it's time to get married......
Jiang Heng's words were halfway through, but Mo Li broke out in a cold sweat, and immediately understood what Jiang Heng was thinking.
Mo Li doesn't want to be a concubine, if Jiang Heng says something in front of the emperor, and the emperor comes directly to give a marriage, it will be troublesome, he can't refuse the marriage, once he refuses, it will definitely make the entire Mo family guilty.
Mo Li decisively interrupted Jiang Heng's words and said, "Okay, I promise you, I can't go to this selection competition!"
The treacherous plan succeeded, and Jiang Heng was also proud, but he thought about it for a while and asked, "You don't want to be a colt so much? ”
"Stop, I'm really not interested in being a colt. Mo Li said, "Your Highness, I promise to participate, but you can't set me up, don't let Your Majesty give me a marriage." ”
If he was really given marriage, then he would be sorry for Shu Yu, and the whisper he said in front of Shu Yu's ear that day was that he promised to marry her, but once he was given marriage, it was impossible to marry another woman.
The metamorphosis of the royal family lies in the fact that even if a man marries thousands of women, it is not a matter at all, but the husband who marries a woman cannot have three wives and four concubines.
Mo Li is not a flowery man, three wives and four concubines do not exist for him, but once he marries the princess, he will fail Shu Yu, which is something he does not want to do.
Jiang Heng smiled proudly, then reached out and patted Mo Li's shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, as long as you go to the selection competition and win the first prize, I will never give you a set." ”
Jiang Heng's words made Mo Li frown again, and he said: "Your Highness, you are a strong man, the people who come to participate in the competition are all first-class geniuses from all countries, and no one dares to guarantee that this kind of thing can be done absolutely." ”
Jiang Heng doesn't want to eat Mo Li's set, since you agreed, then you have to work hard, others can't, but he has absolute confidence in Mo Li.
"I don't dare to say anything else, you can do it. Jiang Heng said.
"Your Highness, you are ......" Mo Li wanted to say something, but when he saw Jiang Heng's undoubted gaze, he had no choice but to stop, and then asked: "But, Your Highness, the one hundred places in our Jiang Kingdom should be full, let me squeeze in, wouldn't it be to make everyone angry?"
Jiang Heng seemed to have known that Mo Li would ask such a question, so he smiled and said, "It's okay, among the hundred people, I killed one, and it's just right for you to make up for it." ”
After Mo Li heard this, he looked at Jiang Heng with a shocked face and said, "Just to squeeze me into those hundred people, Your Highness, you actually went to kill an innocent person, this is a bit too much!"
Mo Li felt that he had to get to know Jiang Heng again, he thought that Jiang Heng was just ruthless when he was against the enemy, but he didn't expect to be so ruthless to the people of Jiang Guo, as the prince of Jiang Guo, he actually ignored Jiang Guo's law and killed innocents indiscriminately.
Jiang Heng saw that Mo Li's face was full of shock, and he also felt a little funny, and said: "What are you thinking about, how can I kill innocent people indiscriminately, I threw that person to the Gyeonggi Yamen to bring it to justice, that person has several lives on his back, and he is not innocent, and the Gyeonggi Yamen will also deal with him according to the law." ”
"That's good, that's good. ”
Hearing Jiang Heng say this, Mo Li was also relieved, it was good that he was a guilty person, as for the rest, he didn't bother to care, only if it wasn't an innocent person who died because of him.
"Okay, let's talk about this today, the final selection will be held in three months, you have three months to recuperate, recover well, you can mention anything to me at any time, I will let the people of the palace do it." ”
Since everything that should be said was enough, Mo Li also agreed, so Jiang Heng got up and prepared to leave.
"Your Highness, you seem to have forgotten something. At this time, Mo Li suddenly spoke.
Jiang Heng, who had already gotten up, frowned slightly when he heard Mo Li's question, he remembered to frown and forget something, and then he looked at Mo Li suspiciously.
"My bow, and my custom arrows. Mo Li said, "I know, it must have been you who sent someone to take it away last time." ”
As soon as Mo Li said this, Jiang Heng remembered that when Mo Li assassinated Liang Wenlong that day, the bow and arrow and saber all fell on the scene, and later he sent someone to clean up the scene and take it away.
Jiang Heng stretched out his hand to probe in the air, a pair of bows and arrows had already been taken out by him, and placed on the floor, two swords, one was Mo Li's and the other was Shu Yu's, at that time Shu Yu finally stabbed Liang Wenlong to death with his own sword.
"Remember, you must come out on top, I don't want people from other countries to become children of destiny. ”
Jiang Heng left such a sentence, and then turned around and left.
"Your Highness, I am injured, so I will not send you. ”
Mo Li stayed in place and smiled, but he sighed in his heart, he was the son of destiny, and others wanted to grab this name, but they couldn't snatch it.
