General, the lady escaped again

Chapter 1021 Losing the Heart of the People (1)

"Second brother, let's talk about the most practical thing. You came here to ask me to lend you some grain, right?" Li Hong said lightly.

This sentence successfully interrupted Li Guang's attempt to persuade Li Hong to help him. Li Guang's eyes flashed. "Yes."

"I'll tell you the truth! In order to resist you, I have recruited a lot of people. My food has to feed them, so I can't lend it to you!" Li Hong said calmly, "We are brothers. I'm not afraid to tell you that even if the emperor comes, I have no food to lend!"

"Li Hong!" Li Guang could no longer hold back his anger, "What do you want in exchange for helping me?"

"Second brother, with your temper, it's really not suitable for you to ask for help!" Li Hong said with a smile. Seeing that Li Guang was about to lose control of his anger, Li Hong added fuel to the fire. "Let me tell you again, the news of your appearance here has been reported by Fourth Brother's spies. If you don't return to your territory, your territory will be lost."

"Li Hong!!! You..." Li Hong's words shocked Li Guang.

"You want to ask me how I know, right?" Li Hong chuckled, "Because the spies you sent are all under my surveillance, I know exactly what information they send back to you every day!" Li Hong looked indifferent, looking at Li Guang with a provocative look. "I said, I have to protect myself, I'm afraid you will trick me if I don't pay attention!"

"Instead of killing them all, it is better to let them live under my nose." Li Hong's words startled Li Guang. He looked at Li Hong straight in the eye for the first time. He never thought that the mud, which he had always ignored, could become so mysterious without him noticing.

"You have always looked down on me and ignored me, but you always want to see me in trouble to satisfy your superiority. Now you think I have to agree to your request after you condescend to beg me? Li Guang, you take yourself too seriously. You came to my territory, and I have spared you by not killing you. Do you understand?" Li Hong whispered in Li Guang's ear. "Also, Li Guang! Don't mess with me. You want to be the emperor, but I don't want to! Do you understand? I, don't, want to!"

"Show him off!" Li Hong glanced at the dazed Li Guang with cold eyes, then turned back to the villa. The housekeeper said respectfully to Li Guang. "Second Prince, take care!"

Li Guang looked at Li Hong's closed door for a long while, then turned around and left with a sullen face.

"Let's go back to the city!" Thinking of what Li Hong had just said, that the Fourth Prince might already be outside his territory, Li Guang gritted his teeth, jumped on his horse and galloped away.

"Second Prince, has the Fourth Prince really launched an attack on us?" a subordinate at the side asked worriedly.

"...Go back to the city first." Li Guang couldn't answer, he was not sure, so he could only rush back to the territory.

When Li Guang returned to his territory and found everything was fine, he suddenly realized that he had been fooled by Li Hong.

With a gloomy face, he took the towel from the maid and wiped his face.

"Damn it, we were fooled by the third prince!" The subordinate who followed Li Guang back gritted his teeth.

"Pa!" Li Guang slapped his subordinate with a sullen face. The subordinate was slapped away, stood up with his hands covering his face, and said nothing with his eyes lowered.

"Get out." Li Guang shouted angrily and swept everything on the table to the ground. He could not hide his anger. The rage in his heart was burning so fiercely that he wanted to raise his sword and chop someone to vent his anger.

"I'll take my leave." The subordinate left silently, leaving Li Guang to vent his anger alone.
