Chapter 425: The World's Young Master Returns Home
Once out of the capital, one enters the territory of Shuntian Prefecture. Take a road south to Tianjin Wei, and then follow the Bohai Bay eastward. Along the way, you pass through Qingzhou Prefecture, Laizhou Prefecture, Dengzhou Prefecture, and finally reach Weihai Wei, the destination of Li Chen's journey.
Accompanying Li Chen were not only Sanbao and the top fifty personal guards from the Dongchang, but also three hundred elite archers of the Yupingwei. They were disguised and scattered within a ten-mile radius behind Li Chen's convoy.
Once any emergency arises, these three hundred Imperial Guards cavalry can arrive in a quarter of an hour. Fully armed, they even carry two Shenji Crossbows each, disassembled with parts carried individually. They would be sufficient for engaging in a small-scale skirmish.
With fifty of the elite Jin Yiwei at his side, Li Chen's safety was practically guaranteed.
And Su Jinpa, who came out with Li Chen, wasn't impressed by such a lavish display.
"Once bitten, twice shy," is that right?
"Within the capital, you command the wind and rain, swallowing up mountains and rivers like a tiger. But once you leave the city, you wish you could bring the entire Imperial Guard and the East Factory with you, afraid that something might go wrong. If you're so scared, what are you doing out here?"
Su Jinpa's sarcasm made Li Chen, who was just lifting the curtains to look outside, smile. He lowered the curtains and turned back to Su Jinpa, saying: "You talk too much. This is what it means to be a gentleman and not stand under dangerous walls. My safety affects the entire country, isn't that an exaggeration? In this situation, taking any risks would be irresponsible to the nation."
"You make it sound so good."
Su Jinpa let out a soft snort and said, “You clearly wanted to imitate the ancients with your scheme of seeking out talents like the ‘Three Visits to the Thatched Cottage’, yet you’ve revealed your cowardly nature.”
"It's not shameful or strange to be afraid of death. After all, there isn't a truly fearless person in the world, especially me."

Li Chen nodded his nose and said, "Right now, I only have one father above me. My father is ill, so I act as regent, wielding power, wealth, beauty, everything I desire. I can even use the entire Qin Empire to serve me. This empire has millions of subjects, all my loyal citizens. After being born into such a good family, I certainly wouldn't give up my life so easily."
Su Jinpa felt that Li Chen's words were sophistry, but after thinking hard for a long time, he couldn't come up with a strong rebuttal. In the end, he could only hum and change the subject.
"You traveled all this way to the recluse's abode, Mirror Master. If you can't persuade him or get shut out completely, don't get angry and take it personally."
"Please ask Master Jing to come out of seclusion, this matter is indeed very difficult, I know that, almost impossible."
Li Chen said calmly: "For four years of the Great Dynasty, the father emperor had seen Mr. Jingzhi three times. He said that as long as Mr. Jingzhi came out of the mountains to assist him, the position in the court could be chosen by Mr. Jingzhi at will. No matter how high the official position or the generous salary, it did not move Mr. Jingzhi."
Later, many feudal lords from all over the country also invited Mr. Jingzhi, but some were lucky enough to meet him, while others couldn't even see a person. Over time, people in the world simply assumed that Mr. Jingzhi would never serve in office and was content to be a carefree wanderer.
"Then you're still so confident?" Su Jinpa asked.
"While we may have some grasp of the situation, it's impossible to guarantee success. This matter is as difficult as ascending to heaven, but the potential rewards are also immense."
With a slight narrowing of his eyes, Li Chen said, "A few days ago, I spoke with your father. Once Master Jing agrees to serve, just imagine the kind of impact it would have?"
Su Jin pondered carefully, his voice trembling slightly: "The scholars of the world return to their hearts!"
