Chapter 321 The Three Armies
Emperor Wei had long been well aware of the unfilial son’s coveting of the Gray Guards. So when he heard that Wei Yu was asking for people again, he was not surprised. However, unlike before when he flatly refused, this time Emperor Wei thought for a moment and then slowly said, “A few days ago, you mentioned the matter of the military exercise. I have already discussed it with Du Xing. He has been arranging to reorganize the three armies recently. The new-style troops have not yet been selected…”
Wei Yu’s eyelids twitched, vaguely feeling that trouble was coming.
Sure enough, Emperor Wei, speaking, glanced over with a slight look, “As for the new-style troops, since you are most familiar with special forces, and you currently have nothing to do, why don’t you go to the army and select some men? Pick out suitable officers and soldiers to form a new army. I will allow you to take two hundred of them with you.”
The words “refuse” were on the tip of Wei Yu’s tongue, but in the end, the thought of those two hundred men was swallowed back.
Wei Yu smiled and feigned modesty, “That’s not very appropriate, Dad. No one else in the entire capital city dares to be so bold as to have two hundred private soldiers. If others find out, it will cause a lot of problems.”
Emperor Wei snorted coldly, looking at him with strong disdain, “I told you to go, so go. With me here, who can say you are wrong!”
Meat that’s handed over at one’s lips, and he’s still reluctant to eat it?
Such pretentiousness!
