Li Zijun stroked the sword hole behind Pi Dayu, and his face showed a determined expression.

The moment Diarra showed the soft sword, Li Zijun recognized his identity. This judgment is not difficult to make, among all the sword saints in the Aojin Empire, he is the only one who is used to using soft swords!

A long time ago, Li Zijun had heard of Diarra's name, he was the vice principal of the only martial arts school in the Youlan Continent. He is a slightly different person from other Sword Saints, everyone else will participate in the court for their own family or future generations, he is not! He is more for himself, he always wants to become a generation of famous ministers of the Aojin Empire.

It is precisely because Diarra has put more of his energy on the court that for so many years, he has been stagnant in martial arts, and he can only sit at the bottom of the entire Aojin Empire!

That night, in fact, when Diarra was just starting out, Li Zijun had already discovered him. Li Zijun noticed that although Diarra's speed was in line with the performance of a saint-level master, his body coordination during the march was not satisfactory, especially when he 'saw' the soft sword in his hand, which was really not very good, Li Zijun finally gave up on dodging!

The sword that Diarra stabbed and the flashy way he stepped back made Li Zijun shake his head for him. Among all the sword saints that Li Zijun has encountered, Diarra is not the worst talented, but his strength is the weakest!

Diarra really wasted too much time on those meaningless things! It's just that individuals have their own choices, and Li Zijun can't do anything about it except for feeling pity!

"Hey!" Li Zijun sighed softly. He put Pi Dayu back on the table in front of him.

At this moment, Li Zijun's eyes sharpened. His gaze immediately turned to the door, and then he looked puzzled.

"Dangdangdang!

"Who?" Li Zijun had already seen the image of the fifth prince Marcus in his mind. But he still asked pretendedly.

"Ed, you're not resting, I'm Marcus, can I come in?"

"Please!" Li Zijun rushed to the door, quickly opened the door, and invited Marcus into his room with a little surprise.

"Is there anything wrong with this leather big gun, why did you leave it in this place?" Marcas asked with some curiosity when he saw the big leather on the table after sitting down.

"Oh, I don't know when, there was a cut in the back of it. I'm trying to figure out how to make it up!" Li Zijun poured a glass of water for Marcas and stepped aside to reply.

"Don't think about it anymore, no matter how good the way you make up for it, there will be traces after you put it on! You put it on that night, and you have already doomed its fate!" Marcus looked at the opening mentioned by Li Zijun and smiled slightly, he had obviously guessed the origin of this opening.

"Don't bother with it, I have a few new ones there, I'll send someone to send you two in a moment!"

"What's so embarrassing?"

"What's so embarrassing? It's just two clothes. This king can afford it!"

"Don't stand anymore, sit down, I'm here to ask you for something, I can't even open my mouth if you stand like this!

"Please, my lord. Don't tease the little ones anymore, you can tell me anything!" Li Zijun, who had just sat down, seemed to be startled by Marcas, and immediately got up from his chair again. He said with a wry smile on his face.

"Sit down, sit down! If you do this again, I really don't know how to say it!

"I'm here to beg you! Don't stand up again. Otherwise, I'm going to turn my face!" Marcas grabbed Li Zijun's arm, and his face turned serious.

Li Zijun heard Marcus say this. I didn't know what to say, I just smiled wryly and nodded.

"I have just received a warrant from my father, ordering me to rush to the reserve camp in front of me immediately and serve as the commander of one of the reserves!"

"His Majesty the Emperor has entrusted the prince with an important task at this time, which shows his trust in the prince, and the little one is here to wish the prince a bright future and a high rise step by step!" Li Zijun was slightly stunned at first, and then bowed his hand to congratulate Marcas.

"Nothing to congratulate! I am not the only prince serving as the reserve this time, almost all adult princes have received the same order!" Marcas waved his hand to Li Zijun with a bitter face.

"Oh, so that's the case! Then the prince is also equivalent to entering the field of vision of His Majesty, as long as you perform well, you will also be appreciated and reused by His Majesty. ”

"Don't comfort me! I know very well how many pounds and taels I have, I just want to be an idle prince, and I don't have as many ideas as other princes!"

"I'll tell you the truth, in fact, before I left Stone Town this time, I heard about my father's idea. The reason why I followed Maher into the Essex Mountains was not because I was diligent, but because I wanted to avoid this appointment from my father. I didn't expect this to happen to the last resort, and now that I think about it, I'm really a little stupid!" Marcus sighed deeply as he said this, he obviously had his own judgment about the attack in the mountains.

"Now, I can't avoid my father's appointment, and I can only go up hard!"

"It's just that you can see that I'm not a talented person, and I'm not only scathing, but also very selfish! I don't have the ability to lead an army at all!"

"It's said that it's a reserve, but in fact, they're the backup troops ready to go, and after our princes take over, they'll soon be pulled into battle!"

"I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, I don't want to make any great achievements, I just want to let myself continue to live! But once I lead them to the battlefield, with my ability and the surrounding environment, I am afraid that this simple wish of mine will be difficult to achieve!"

"I have come out of the Essex Mountains to see clearly your ability to organise and co-ordinate, and I have come to ask you to take my deputy. ”

"What?" Li Zijun couldn't have imagined that Marcas appeared in his room today to ask him to be the military commander of the Aojin Empire, and he was so shocked that he stood up from his chair.

"Father allowed us to choose our assistants, and while Rogge and Hope are better suited for the position than you, Maher is the better choice for them who want to get back on their feet! ”

"How can you conclude that I don't have the same ambition?" asked Marcus curiously.

"With your abilities, if you have an idea of this, you shouldn't be in Essex at this time!"

"Don't tell me about any family ties, I have never been a contender for the throne of Aojin, not before, and not in the future! I'm just an idle prince, this has long been decided in the Aojin country, helping me won't have any impact on your family. ”

"I have no desire to make a meritorious decision, and I will do everything I can to prevent us from getting involved in any dangerous action, and I can even write you a letter of guarantee for this. Of course, I won't stop you from having this idea yourself!"

"As long as you can help me save this life in this battle, I will give you 10,000 purple gold coins, which is 5,000 deposits!" As he spoke, Marcas took out a purple gold card from his arms and put it in front of Li Zijun.

Li Zijun really didn't expect Marcas to be such a person, he had to say that he had indeed underestimated the prince of Aojin before!

Li Zijun originally wanted Santa Cruz to find out about Dongyu Virgin's attitude towards him, and then decide where he would go next.

Now that he had suddenly received an invitation from Marcas, he couldn't help but hesitate a little. Belinda's death had dealt him a great blow, and he had always wanted to take revenge on the Fengqi Empire and the Dark Moon God Cult!

Li Zijun knew very well that with the current situation of Dongyu, they had no plan to launch an attack on the Fengqi Empire in the short term. Dongyu's strategy is to make it easy and then difficult, and Monlin and the Turk-Hungarian Empire are their future business goals.

Moreover, after he returned to China, in order to give Ziqing an explanation, Virgil would not let him appear near Ziqing even if he was reused.

In other words, there will be a long time when he will not be able to contact the Fengqi Empire at all, let alone take revenge!

And Marcas's suggestion just gave Li Zijun such an opportunity, which also made him secretly moved!

"Who will your team be under command in the future?"

"Externally, I am the commander, and internally, you are the absolute authority! I will hand over all my seals to you, and this team is completely in your hands! No matter what you want, as long as it does not endanger my safety, I will not express any opinion!" Hearing Li Zijun's heart, Marcas hurriedly promised him.

"Okay, I'll get down!" Li Zijun asked for Marcas's words, and he smiled and received the purple gold card on the table into his arms.

"Then we'll make up our minds!" Marcus finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Li Zijun put away the Zijin card, he stood up from his chair with a smile and swore with Li Zijun's high-five!

Watching Marcus walk out of his room with ease, Li Zijun couldn't help but look up to him a little more. Five thousand purple gold coins were not a small number even for a prince like Marcus, but from the time he threw the purple gold card on the table to the time Li Zijun took it into his arms, he didn't look at the card again, and he didn't ask Li Zijun for any proof when he left.

Such a spirit is no longer enough to explain the word 'free and easy', Li Zijun asked himself that he would never be able to do it!

"Maybe you're not as unbearable as you think, and your father's election of you this time may not just be for you to be a companion!" Marcus disappeared from the room for a long time, and Li Zijun did not withdraw his gaze from the door. (To be continued......)
