Chapter 1021: Too High of Himself

“You are smart and you are doing everything for my sake, which I am very aware of, but you are just a strategist. If we spend too much time with the civilians, then they will think that we attach great importance to them. However, we are in the upper class, and we are the decision makers. All I need to do is to solve the issue to make them grateful to us. Why should we spend any time with those commoners? I need their support, but they are not powerful enough. They don’t deserve to support me!” Zhou Huailing said with a relaxed look on his face.

He trusted Junyi’s competence, but Junyi had not taken every detail into consideration. He was not making a plan from his point of view.

That was probably because he was just a strategist who was close to the civilians. Junyi was not to be blamed. All he needed to do was to make plans, and not everything could be perfect.

Having said this, he patted Junyi’s shoulders. “You have worked hard, and we had a long day. Let’s just take a break at the office and we can discuss specifically what we can do when we are all rested.”

Junyi showed a very helpless look on his face.

He had thought that everything would go well at Li County, but what the Heir and the Princess Consort had done was beyond his anticipation.

He might not be able to talk the Heir into doing anything else, otherwise he would have to take the blame later, but it was not right for everyone to wait at the office and do nothing.

Junyi thought for a while and said, “Heir, you and the Princess Consort can take a break at the Government Office since you are not suited to go to Li Village, but I should go there on your behalf, not to see those civilians, but to check what is going on there, so that we can come up with some better solutions.”

When Zhou Huailing heard Junyi’s ideas, he also believed that he was right.

They had to know about what happened to Li Village, and it was not like he would go there personally. Someone had to be there, and Junyi was the right candidate. However, Junyi had to be safe, since if something happened to him, he would lose a strategist.

He thought carefully and answered. “Junyi, if you insist on going there, take ten men with you. Just remember, keep yourself alive and everything else can be talked about later, got it?”

Junyi nodded.

Zhou Huailing picked the ten most ferocious and strong men he had brought with him and gave them to Junyi.

He and Gu Ruxue went into the Government Office together, and the Officer had made a good arrangement for him, which made him and Gu Ruxue, who was showing a bright smile on her face, very happy.

Junyi, together with the men, headed towards Li Village.

It was a little painstaking to arrive at Li Village, so after a long bumpy ride, they arrived at the destination.

The Heir did not want to care about those villagers. What he wanted was to solve the problem so that the villagers would understand his might. However, Junyi did not think that was the right method. The King was the decision maker, so he, as the Heir, should demean himself and care about the civilians. However, the Heir did not understand this point and spoke highly of himself. So he had to take some actions to compensate.

When they arrived at Li Village, Junyi consoled the villagers in the name of the Heir.

Later, he decided to take a look at the mountains.

At this moment a piece of news arrived.
