Chapter 962: Getting Married

“Most of our staff are hunting Xie Yan, which is important, but the Destiny Monk is very important too. You should choose some good ones from among those men and send them to Lingzhou or places around Lingzhou. We need to find the Destiny Monk,” Zhou Huailing ordered.

Junyi nodded. He did not think that the Heir was making a proper and thorough arrangement, but since the Heir already gave the order, he was not going to put forward any more suggestions to distract or annoy him.

All he could do was to make sure he completed the work well, so that they could achieve a good result.

As Junyi was thinking, he answered in agreement. “I got it, Heir.”

Zhou Huailing was done with his order and was about to ask Junyi to leave, but suddenly, he thought of something that popped into his head.

Junyi was a very capable, brave man who knew exactly what he was supposed to do. He decided to stay by his side for the rest of his life, rather than betray him like Xie Yan.

He had been thinking for the past two days that the reason why Xie Yan decided to turn against him was because he was not given any burdens on his shoulders.

That was a point he ignored previously – he should have kept his men through some implicit manners.

So… he decided to make some changes to his strategies when it came to Junyi.

Well…

Junyi was young and capable – but what if Junyi betrayed him like Xie Yan did?

He was not going to let this happen to him again, so he was going to put some burden on Junyi’s shoulders.

So what should the burdens be? A wife and children, of course.

“Junyi, you are not married, are you?” Zhou Huailing asked.

“No, I am not.” Junyi found the question strange, but he still confessed honestly.

Zhou Huailing nodded. “Now you are my employee, and I should treat you like my own brother. You are a strategist, but you should also marry a proper lady. I can pick a lady from the Princess Consort’s family and let her marry you. You deserve a noble girl.”

Junyi frowned and wasn’t very pleased inwardly.

He was just a strategist, who passed on plans and gave suggestions. Why should the Heir get involved with his marriage?

Also, Junyi himself did not think that any of those ordinary women were a match for him. In his heart, he had always wanted to exceed Xie Yan and became the strategist of a man who could take the throne. Therefore, women were very unimportant for him.

However, he could tell that the Heir was in a good mood as he said those words to him.

His rejection would definitely displease the Heir.

It was just something he would have to do just to keep the relationship happy.

He was Mr. Heir’s strategist and he was residing inside the mansion, so if he got a wife, it was just a matter of one more person to support, which was nothing in his opinion.

He nodded. “Thanks, Heir.”

Zhou Huailing nodded with satisfaction.

“Anyway, you can go and have a break. I will come to you when the suitable people are found,” Zhou Huailing said with a smile.

“Yes.” Junyi replied.

Zhou Huailing looked very satisfied.

Junyi was a good man. He was more capable than Xie Yan and more obedient than Xie Yan as well.

All was well, so Zhou Huailing went to have a break.

***

Early the next morning, Zhou Huaijin received a summons, asking him to have a visit to the court.

He ate a simple breakfast and went into the court with Fu Bao. Everything seemed the same, so Zhou Huaijin headed directly to Qianqing Palace after he went into the court.

The King had just left the morning session and had not yet got out of the golden dragon robe.

When he caught sight of Zhou Huaijin, he said with a hardened tone, looking displeased. “I have something to discuss with you.”
