Chapter 797: Chapter 797: Don’t Always Mention Her
In the court, many ministers have been secretly supporting Li You. At this moment, they saw him standing in front of the army and felt their hearts surging with admiration, wishing they could follow him into battle and fight courageously for him.
This silhouette of Li You somehow increased his reputation in the court.
Wenren Zong was also wearing armor, riding a horse, and following him closely.
He looked back at the Immortal-view Gate.
“Thirteen, what are you waiting for?” Li You asked calmly, “Do you expect the Princess Consort to come and see off the army too?”
Wenren Zong shook his head, “Your Highness, you misunderstand. I was just thinking that if we could have Chief Lin as our military strategist for this trip, we would be much more effective.”
A touch of helplessness appeared on Li You’s usually gentle and warm smile, “I am still not worthy of his support.”
“But the Dean hasn’t chosen the Crown Prince either,” Wenren Zong said softly, “Perhaps he is still observing, assessing, and waiting.”
“Hmph.”
Li You hummed softly, then laughed, “Anyway, there needs to be a choice. Once I leave, I may not be able to return.”
Wenren Zong hurriedly said, “Your Highness, you don’t have to be so pessimistic. Although the Crown Prince is a cold person, he definitely isn’t the kind to disregard the lives of his soldiers and people.”
“Who knows if he is or not?” Li You hummed again, and his gentle smile faded a little, “He may have a cold exterior, but he’s also cold at heart. I understand him more than he realizes.”
Wenren Zong continued, “The Crown Prince has participated in the preparations for the logistics of this mission. I have carefully checked them all – everything is well-arranged, and there is not a trace of negligence. I think the Crown Prince truly wants you to win this battle.”
“Of course, he wants to win. For this battle against Silla, those from the East Palace faction want the Crown Prince to personally lead the troops to solidify his position as the Crown Prince.”
