"What did you say? Say it again?"

Ying Feiyu was very surprised, as if he didn't hear clearly, and asked him to repeat it again.

If he remembered correctly, this guy was only in his forties now, still early in his retirement age.

Are you going to retire and return home now?

Are you giving up your future?

"Go back to your Majesty, I... I will... this time... I'm here... to retire and return to my hometown! I hope your Majesty will allow you to do so!"

Ying Feiyu's suddenly raised voice made Ling Si's heart tremble.

I had to bite the bullet and finally finished the whole sentence.

Kneeling on the ground, head lowered, not daring to look at Ying Feiyu's expression.

But I guess I should agree.

The position of Hei Bingtai is very important, and only his confidants are employed. How could he be used as someone who has sued him before?

"Ling Si! How old are you? Are you going to retire and return to your hometown now?"

Ying Feiyu looked sideways slightly.

"Your Majesty, I will be thirty-three this year! Because my mother is seriously ill at home and I want to be filial to her bedside, I am planning to resign from the post of captain of Black Ice Terrace!"

Ling Si didn't dare to raise his head, bowed his hands, and made an excuse at random.

Da Qin is a country of etiquette, and it is also a country of benevolence and filial piety.

Their emperor is also known to be kind to his mother, so he can't let him go home to take care of her, right?

"Your mother is seriously ill...?"

Ying Feiyu raised his eyebrows and almost laughed out loud, "Can I still sign up to travel if I'm seriously ill?"

Yesterday, the travel agency sent a list of registration status in Xianyang during the opening period.

He just took a casual glance and saw that there were probably all the officials and family members of Xianyang among them, including Ling Si's wife and old mother!

If the old lady was really seriously ill, how could Ling Si ask her to sign up with a travel agency and travel to Jiaodong County?

Even if I want to go, I should go to Nanhai County.

The climate there is warm, just perfect for an old lady!

"Forehead……"

Hearing this, even Ling Si was stunned.

He was just thinking about finding a suitable excuse, but he forgot to sign up for a travel agency.

The key is, His Majesty actually knows who has signed up?

It's over now. If you commit the crime of deceiving the emperor, your head will really be in danger!

Just when his brain was racing and he wanted to cover up the matter, the joking voice sounded above his head again, "Even if your mother is sick, is the medical condition in your hometown better than that in Xianyang?"

Ying Feiyu still didn't believe it.

The medical school gathers many famous doctors from all over Daqin.

In addition, there are also royal doctors in the palace.

Among these people, any one of them would be much better than those doctors in the countryside!

If Xianyang can't be cured, wouldn't it mean that his mother would die if he took her back to the countryside?

"Forehead……"

The lie was exposed again, and Ling Si's face instantly turned red to his ears.

If his father hadn't died earlier, he should have used his father as an excuse.

"Tell me, what other excuse is there?"

Ying Feiyu put his hands behind his back and raised his little head, waiting for his next words.

"The general deserves to die...!"

That little thought had been seen through, and Ling Si had nothing to say, so he could only kneel on the ground and kowtow.

"Okay, if I wanted your life, you would have been dead by now...!"

A grown man knelt on the ground and moaned, and Ying Feiyu lost his patience, "Tell me quickly, the good Captain Heibingtai, why did you quit after you said you didn't want to do it?"

Ling Si frowned in embarrassment.

Although the truth doesn't sound good, it may offend His Majesty! But in this situation, it’s not okay not to tell the truth!

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and speak, "Back to Your Majesty, General... General has offended Your Majesty a lot before. I'm afraid... I'm afraid..."

"Afraid of my revenge?"

Although he made up his mind, Ling Si still hesitated and didn't know how to express his words.

In the end, it was Ying Feiyu who said these four words calmly and with a smile on his face.

When Ling Si heard this, his face turned pale, "No, no, no, that's not what the general meant!"

Even if this was the case, he didn't dare to say it so straightforwardly.

Isn’t this just lighting up the lamp and going to the latrine to look for shit?

"Then what do you mean?"

Ying Feiyu also asked bluntly.

"Uh...uh..."

Ling Si started to hesitate again.

After a while, an idea suddenly flashed in my head, and I came up with a perfect excuse, "The general's ability is meager, so I'm afraid he won't be able to do the job of Captain Black Ice Terrace! That's right! I'm just afraid he won't be able to do it well!"

As soon as he said this, he probably didn't believe it himself and had to give himself some encouragement before he dared to raise his head.

"Can't do it well?"

Ying Feiyu touched his smooth chin and counted with his fingers, "As far as I know, you entered the palace at the age of sixteen, rose to prominence at the age of eighteen, entered the black ice platform at the age of twenty, and became the black ice at the age of twenty-three. Tai Xiaowei, I have been working for twenty years now, are you telling me that you are not good at it?"

"How picky is my father? You can gain his trust and work in this position for twenty years. How dare you say that you can't do it well?"

"If you look around, how many of the officials in the imperial court can serve for twenty years under the eyes of the emperor?"

Even what Ling Si thought was a perfect excuse was broken by Ying Feiyu in just a few words.

Ying Zheng used to have a bad temper and was suspicious. I can probably count the number of people who have been able to serve in the court for twenty consecutive years on both hands!

Which one is not ups and downs?

Ying Zheng was demoted to another place because of his displeasure?

Moreover, the position of Colonel Heibingtai is still an extremely important one, and all the ministers in the DPRK and the Central Government will give him three points of praise.

If you offend him and send a few people out to keep an eye on your mistakes and report gossip to Ying Zheng, will it still be as good as yours?

Among all the civil and military officials in the dynasty, who dares to say that he is alone, as clean as a piece of white paper?

Even if you want to be clean, the people around you won’t let you.

Family members, relatives, officials under my command, servants at home!

As long as Heibingtai wants to cause trouble, there will always be a breakthrough.

Therefore, when all civil and military officials in the dynasty saw Ling Si, they were the ones who took the initiative to say hello first.

Its status and status can be imagined from this!

Now he actually offered to retire and return home? How scared is this for him?

Could it be that in his heart, he is more terrifying than Ying Zheng, that scumbag father?

"Your Majesty...the last general...the last general is really of little ability...!"

Now Ling Si didn't know what excuse to make.

His Majesty has refuted all the methods he could think of, and there is really nothing to say.

"Okay, then who do you think is qualified for the position of Colonel Black Ice Terrace?"

This time, Ying Feiyu didn't answer the question.

"General Han Xinhan, a young and brave man, has led troops to win countless battles, and has just led troops to clean up overseas. He is qualified for this position!"

"There is also General Wang Liwang. He is a loyal and good general, and he will definitely be worthy of this post!"

"In addition, there are Fan Kuai, Peng Yue, etc. Even though they are young, they are loyal to His Majesty...!"

Ling Si recommended several candidates at once, all of whom were Ying Feiyu's confidants and were trained by him.

"Pfft..."

Hearing this, Ying Feiyu burst out laughing.

This smile made Ling Si laugh again.

how? Did he say the wrong thing again?

Aren’t those candidates good enough?
