Chapter 76 Want to go together (1)
Chen Hui resisted the desire to see what Li Youde was doing and continued to move forward. Seeing that their temporary residence was almost in front of her and Li Youde hasn’t reacted yet, Chen Hui couldn’t hold it anymore and said in a low voice, “Since this Lady Chen invites lord’s hate so much, it is better for this Lady Chen to go back.”
Having said that, she quickened her pace as if to go back on an impulse.
Although Li Youde was still annoyed with himself, he heard Chen Hui. Seeing that she quickened her pace, he also couldn’t care about too much. He chased after her angrily and anxiously. It wasn’t until they arrived at the yard where they were temporarily staying that he was able to catch up with her. He grabbed Chen Hui’s arm and reprimanded angrily, “What madness has gotten into you again? Before, I let you return, but you won’t. Now, you are being so noisy about going back.”
Li Youde paused. There were people around. Although, they were his people, he didn’t want them to hear too much. He let go of Chen Hui, strode into the room and said as he walked, “Little Monkey, get inside!”
Chen Hui looked once at his back and couldn’t help but grin. She slowly followed him inside.
“Close the door!” Li Youde said angrily.
Chen Hui turned around without saying a word and closed the door.
Li Youde stared at Chen Hui for a while and only saw that she was standing with her head lowered at the moment and with an obedient appearance. However, remembering her desperate expression of before, the anger in his heart couldn’t be dissipated and he scolded, “Want to go back? Where do you want to go back? You are already here; do you want to go back by yourself or let someone send you back? You just arrived and want to go back? Did anyone force you to come?”
Chen Hui waited until he finished scolding before saying, “I regret it.”
Li Youde was dumbstruck. It was unknown what he remembered. His face darkened, “It’s also useless if you regret it. Just stay here. Don’t go anywhere until this battle is over!”
“Lord, even if you can stop my body, you can’t stop my heart!” Chen Hui said.
Li Youde humphed, “It is enough if I stop your body!”
Chen Hui inhaled, covered her face and started crying again.
“Don’t cry!” Li Youde scolded irritably.
Chen Hui ignored him and continued to sob.
The anger on Li Youde’s face gradually dissipated with her cry. He sighed and said, “Lady Chen, don’t cry…
Chen Hui got quieter as if in response to his gentler tone.
Chen Hui choked up and said, “If this Lady Chen has done something wrong, lord can scold this Lady Chen. However, this Lady Chen didn’t do anything wrong, lord still scolded this Lady Chen…Why?!”
Recalling that he took his anger out on Lady Chen because of Qi Shengwen’s approach and looking at her aggrieved appearance at the moment, Li Youde’s voice softened again, “…Alright, alright, don’t cry anymore.”
“Then, lord, will you promise that you won’t scold me anymore in the future for no reason,” Chen Hui seized the opportunity to look up at Li Youde. Although, she didn’t have many tears, her eyes were red and it looked like she has cried.
Li Youde stared at clear eyes that were like stars after the rain, he nodded helplessly in the end and said, “Alright, alright, alright, I promise you.”
A brilliant smile immediately appeared on Chen Hui’s face, “Thanking lord.”
That anger that Li Youde has been holding also dissipated with Chen Hui’s smile. After thinking about it, he added, “You should also provoke others less in the future…”
Before he finished speaking, he saw Chen hui’s smile froze. He hurriedly retracted his last sentence and changed the subject abruptly, “Later, I will go to Jianbei with Lang Yu and the others. Stay in Fanyang!”
Chen Hui was startled. Jianbei was a place where was fought directly with the Xi tribe. Who does Li Youde think he is to actually go to the frontline? The point is that he isn’t taking her!
“Lord, Jianbei is so dangerous. It is better for you to stay at Fanyang!” Chen Hui wiped her tears and looked at Li Youde with a sincere expression.
Li Youde frowned, “I’m a supervisor of the army. Even Lang Yu went to the front line, how could I not?!”
Chen Hui thought, you are just a good for nothing. The other party is fighting a serious war. It is useless for you to go there. You will presumably be a hindrance instead!
“Lord, sir Lang is the commander-in-chief. Of course, he must go to the frontline. However, lord you need to take care of the overall situation. How can you be so close to the frontline?” Chen Hui said, “It is the most important that you stay behind and come up with strategies!”
That Chen Hui praised Li Youde while she was it was very to his liking. He smiled unconsciously and his tone was softer, “You are not wrong. But if you are too far away while making strategies, I’m afraid that it would be too late.”
“But if you go to the frontline personally and something happens, who can take care of the overall situation and come up with amazing strategies against the enemy?” Chen Hui asked.
There was a hint of hesitation on Li Youde’s face. He also knew about the danger of going to the frontline. However, as a supervisor of the army, he couldn’t give the emperor the impression of being greedy for life and fearing death. They were eighty thousand against forty thousand Xi people and they were the defenders of the city. This battle wasn’t difficult. Jianbei was also an important city in the past. The wall of the city has been often repaired and strengthened. It wouldn’t be broken by those barbarians of the Xi tribe at all. What was there to be afraid of? The emperor let him come was to give him a chance to do a meritorious service. He couldn’t let the emperor be disappointed in him!
“What was that little danger?” Li Youde humphed and said, “They are but barbarians who couldn’t succeed. It wouldn’t take long for them to be defeated. I have to go keep watch at the frontline!”
