Chapter 411: Change of Plans

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Heng Yi remained silent

He didn’t care whose son he was, nor did the thought of finding his blood-related family ever cross his mind.

With Han Qiao and Ah-Yao, he already had a family.

He would not bring his wife and children back to serve his biological family.

He couldn’t bear to see her suffer even the slightest grievances.

“And then?” Heng Yi asked.

The old man looked at Heng Yi, unmoved.

Thinking of the current defeated sect, he said “You can go to that place but you’re not allowed to take anything with you. In a year, I’ll pass down my martial arts skills to you as long as you can make a name for yourself and earn thousands of gold yourself.”

“Do you have any other requests?”

“You’re not allowed to bring a single copper or anyone else.”

This requirement was very harsh.

Heng Yi thought for a moment. Maybe the old man had something else that he

didn’t tell him yet.

“What about my wife and children?”

If he couldn’t bring Han Qiao and Ah-Yao along, he wouldn’t care about any martial arts no matter how profound and rare they were.

“Sure.”

Heng Yi heaved a sigh of relief.

“I understand,” With that, Heng Yi stood up and left.

The old man stared at Heng Yi’s back and took a deep breath.

The seniors and juniors of the sect only knew how to practice martial arts. Now, they were almost out of food. Moreover, they were all bad-tempered and refused to open up. They only wanted to practice martial arts well.

The sect needed a sect leader who knew how to do business, could make money, and a just commander.

And HengYi fit the bill.

He was as strong as an ox and had an excellent understanding of business. If he were taught properly for a few years, the sect would be able to earn money

again…

The old man didn’t think that Han Qiao was the one behind the money-making between the two.

He didn’t really care about Han Qiao.

When Heng Yi came back, Han Qiao was already asleep. He went straight to the study to write an urgent letter.

He wrote straight to the point and nothing else.

After he finished writing, he returned to the bedroom and woke Han Qiao up.

“Hmm?”

“Ah-Qiao, take a look.”

Han Qiao yawned, and Heng Yi brought the oil lamp closer to them.

After reading the letter, Han Qiao thought that there was nothing wrong with the letter. Heng Yi had expressed himself clearly.

“It’s good. Let’s send it.”

Whether they succeeded or not all depended on Emperor Zhao Qian’s intent.

HengYi told Han Qiao about the old man’s request.

Han Qiao was more vigilant than Heng Yi.

“Why do I feel like this old man has something to ask of you?”

Heng Yi lay down on the bed and hugged Han Qiao, “I also want his martial arts

skills too.”

“Not only for me but also for our Ah-Yao.”

“I got into this all too quickly. Many people can’t be granted the title of Marquis in their entire lifetime, but I got everything in just a few years. I didn’t do many good things to receive that reward.”

Han Qiao understood Heng Yi’s concerns.

Their foundation was unstable, and it was obtained too quickly. When it was lost, no one could control it when it collapsed.

Now that he had the chance to start from scratch, he would hand over everything and build an army. No one could say anything about it.

Han Qiao guessed that Emperor Zhao Qian would definitely agree to Heng Yi’s suggestion, so she started to pack her things.

Out of all the children, they would definitely take Ah-Yao along with them.

The old man said that he was not allowed to bring silver, so he only brought some daily necessities, clothes, and tools, as well as a change of clothes and tools.

Han Qiao did not hide this matter from the children.

Han Chi was silent.

Sun Xiu and Sun Yi were also silent. Sun Ke would say goodbye to her mother again, so she was feeling unhappy all day.

“Mother, I want to join the military, I-” Han Qiao interrupted Han Chi.

“Join the military? And then? Aren’t you studying hard? Ah-Chi, be it literature or martial arts, you haven’t truly learned anything yet, and it’s not suitable for you to participate in power.”

Han Chi was shocked by Han Qiao’s words, “But the Sanzhou Army was built by Father.” He said.

“Wrong. That’s the Emperor’s army. The Sanzhou Army belongs to the imperial courts.”

Han Qiao interrupted Han Chi’s words.

“Ah-Chi, remember, that’s not your father’s army. That’s the court’s army. Why do you think the Emperor came here in person and wrote so many calligraphy pieces? The silver was given by the Emperor, the location was chosen by the „ Emperor, and every imperial edict was stamped with the Emperor’s jade seal.” “Ah-Chi, people have to be able to take things up and let go.

Han Chi turned his head away.

Han Qiao sighed softly and patted his shoulder.

“It is enough to have Li Zhao in the barracks.

Han Qiao and Heng Yi were waiting for Emperor Zhao Qian’s reply.

She was also busy preparing for the New Year.

Heng Yi’s urgent letter arrived in front of Emperor Zhao Qian on the twenty-ninth day of the twelfth month.

Emperor Zhao Qian had already sealed his imperial brush back to its case, and he was also at ease from finishing that day’s work.

When he saw Heng Yi’s urgent letter, he was stunned.

After reading it, Emperor Zhao Qian was silent for a long time. Then he said, “It would be great if he was my son.”

In this day and age, who would try to run away from power? How many people could put down the power they have?

Defu stood aside and did not dare to reply.

Emperor Zhao Qian had several sons, but none of them were to his liking. After a long while, Emperor Zhao Qian said, “Prepare the brush and ink.” His reply to Heng Yi was, “Do whatever you want to do. Don’t be too bothered by the trivialities. Do something meaningful while you’re young. Don’t be afraid of success or failure.”

He was also thinking about what kind of people he should send to Sanzhou

Town to take over the army.

Someone who he could use, someone who was loyal and not greedy for power. Emperor Zhao Qian recruited a few of his trusted aides to discuss this matter. “No matter who goes, the rules set by Heng Yi cannot be broken and must be strictly enforced.”

In a blink of an eye, it was New Year’s Eve.

Heng Yi and Han Qiao first distributed the red envelope money to the children, watching them set off firecrackers in the yard. It was a lively and happy scene. HengYi held Han Qiao’s hand tightly, not letting her feel the cold.

Madam Jun stood at the side and smiled gently.

Not far away, Young Doctor Miao looked over at her, and then quickly averted his gaze.

On the seventh day of the first month, Heng Yi received a letter from Emperor Zhao Qian.

After getting his approval, he sorted out all the seals and tokens and handed them to Li Zhao.

Han Qiao entrusted all the children in the family to Madam Jun.

“I’ll leave the rest to you. When we settle down there, we’ll send someone to pick them up.”

“Don’t worry, I will take care of them.

Early in the morning, Han Qiao and Heng Yi left with Ah-Yao and Zeng Qin’er. Zeng Qin’er knew martial arts and was very smart, so she was the most suitable person to bring along..
