Li Hao shook his head and said, "I don't know about this either. The woman was brought by Qiao Wenruo. She doesn't seem to be from the Jiuli tribe. I don't know why my foster father..."

Li Qianyu analyzed: "At this critical juncture, is it just to give our Diying a warning?"

Li Hao shook his head and said, "I don't know. He may have that intention, but I don't think so. Although the situation in the South Barbarians is in chaos, the situation inside Jiuli is very clear. There is really no need for me to do anything unnecessary."

There was only an hour left before the wedding banquet, and soon there was a noise outside the door again.

"General, please come out and talk."

Li Hao's eyes shone, "It's Qiao Wenruo."

Li Qianyu nodded and said, "Since his subordinates didn't complete the task, of course he has to come here himself."

Li Hao said seriously: "Miss San, the marriage between the two departments has already been decided, and I cannot change it. If you trust me, Li Hao will do his best to ensure that the etiquette is perfect!"

Seeing his sincerity and considering the conversation just now, Li Qianyu nodded and said to the people around her, "Get dressed."

Li Hao nodded to the others and quickly walked out of the room.

When Qiao Wenruo saw Li Hao appear, he smiled and said, "I'm sorry, General. I'm sorry. They won't show up again."

Li Hao said coldly: "General Manager, I remember when we met at the foot of the mountain just now, you were still the General Manager. How come you have become the General after not seeing you for a while?"

Qiao Wenruo pretended to be confused, "Why do you say that, General?"

Li Hao said: "Those few people just now were obviously my subordinates, but now they are obeying the orders of the chief steward. If the chief steward is not the general, then the law and discipline in the army has been relaxed and has become so chaotic?"

“Haha…” Qiao Wenruo laughed, “I didn’t expect the general’s eloquence to be as outstanding as his martial arts. Neither of them is the case. It’s just that the general is out to pick up his bride, and the war is imminent, so the army cannot be without a commander for a day, so Wenruo was ordered to take over for a few days.”

"Oh?" Li Haoqi said, "Order? How come I have never heard of this order? I wonder how many days the steward wants to take over?"

Qiao Wenruo smiled and said, "Logically, the general has returned, and the military power should be returned. But after all, we are all subordinates. The patriarch has not given the order yet. Isn't it a bit inappropriate for us to decide the ownership of the military power privately?"

Li Hao snorted coldly and thought to himself, "You want to use my foster father to pressure me."

Qiao Wenruo deliberately raised his voice again, "The auspicious time is approaching, please follow me, Miss Diying!"

Li Hao looked behind Qiao Wenruo and saw only a sea of ​​soldiers. "The chief steward is very talented and well-educated. He is from the north, so he should know the etiquette of getting married, right?"

Qiao Wenruo naturally knew what he was talking about. "The general reminded me that things are different now. The monsters may attack at any time. Besides, this marriage is just a formality. Everyone knows it. The chief patriarch meant to keep everything simple."

Li Hao's heart shuddered as he suddenly realized that he had not seen his adoptive father since he entered the city. Qiao Wenruo had become Li Shixiao's spokesperson, and all orders were issued by him. Something big must have happened that was unknown to the public.

"General, what's the matter?" Qiao Wenruo reminded gently.

Li Hao nodded, "Okay, since it is my foster father's idea, please ask the steward to go to the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion first. It will take some time here. After all, when I picked up the bride, I promised the Third Miss and the Diying tribe that I would never lose my manners. Please forgive me."

When Qiao Wenruo heard his tone soften, he thought for a moment and said, "Okay, we must arrive at Longfeng Pavilion on time and don't keep the clan members waiting for too long." After that, he left with the soldiers.

Seeing that the people were walking away, Li Hao hurried back to the room, "Miss Third, I will immediately arrange for the red-topped wedding sedan to come over. We will go to the Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion on the mountainside together. We will need everyone's help in the future."

Li Qianyu has finished her makeup. Her fair face, which already has a bit of exotic charm, looks so beautiful against the red makeup that many men can't help but feel their heartbeats speed up.

She nodded slightly, "Thank you for your help. Qianyu knows what's going on. General, don't worry too much."

Li Hao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Miss San is very understanding. Thank you, Li Hao!"

Chen Qingzhou said in a deep voice: "Qianyu, you don't have to speak today, we are all here."

Li Qianyu nodded, covered herself with the red veil, and felt very warm in her heart.

At this time, a woman's voice was heard outside the door. Li Hao went out to answer and asked, "How is it?"

Fire Phoenix said: "Everything about the wedding banquet is ready. As you expected, no one has seen the clan leader. I don't know what the guy named Qiao is up to!"

Li Hao frowned and said, "Qiao Wenruo is very scheming and has great cultivation, but I'm afraid it's not possible to say that he can control his adoptive father."

Fire Phoenix asked suspiciously, "Could it be related to the Ten Thousand Demons?"

Li Hao narrowed his eyes. "It's possible. The key is that I can't see my foster father. I don't know what he thinks." He thought for a moment. "How many of our people are still in the army?"

Fire Phoenix said, "After you left, the clan leader did not order the military power to be handed over to Qiao Wenruo. That guy must have acted on his own and was trying to scare you!"

Li Hao shook his head. "It doesn't matter. Just keep talking."

Fire Phoenix thought for a moment, "Although the eldest brother doesn't get along with you, he has the Nine Li and the Earth Demons in his heart. If a fight really breaks out, he won't help outsiders. The second brother is an honest man, always trying to smooth things over. Even if he doesn't stand on our side, he won't go against us. As for the fourth brother, he is stubborn and only follows the clan leader. He won't listen to anyone."

Li Hao nodded and said, "From this point of view, the situation is not too bad. Qiao Wenruo has at most used coercion and bribery to win over and control some low-level generals and soldiers. There is nothing to be afraid of. If a fight really breaks out, we are not afraid. I am more worried about the Ten Thousand Monsters."

Fire Phoenix said: "The clan leader has already taken so many monsters in as his own, is there still any need to worry?"

Li Shixiao, in the name of self-preservation, disregarded the will of his ancestors and joined the All Monsters Alliance. This was what Li Hao had always been most opposed to. "Those who are not of our race must have different hearts. Even though these monsters may be polite today, they may become traitors working together from within and without tomorrow!"

Fire Phoenix thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Brother Hao, don't worry. I have already sent people to monitor the monsters in the tribe as you said before. If they dare to make any unusual movements, they will be killed immediately!"

Li Hao finally showed a rare smile, "Luckily I have you."

"Everyone listens to you..."

The Fire Phoenix suddenly felt a little shy, smiled, and was about to throw its head into Li Hao's arms.

"Um...that..."

Li Hao took a step back, looking a little flustered, "The wedding sedan has arrived, let's get down to business!" After saying that, he jumped up like a rabbit.

Fire Phoenix almost fell down, and looked at Li Hao's back as he ran away. He stomped his feet on the ground and spat, "Isn't this just business!"
