1575 Victory Banquet (6)

Behind every successful person, there were various people who supported them on their own way. No matter how little the support seemed on the surface, they had contributed to the growth of this successful person.

Denying their support would be the same as denying the growth they had experienced.

But it was impossible for him to repay every single one of them one by one because not everyone was closely acquaintance to him.

That was why Sheng Shan Lang chose to relent and learned things he didn't like. Because he wished that he would be able to show his best for the sake of himself and those who had supported him and hoped for his wellbeing.

This was the best method he could do for them.

Doing his best in his work and life because many people cared for him and had supported him.

"You don't have to change completely. Everyone is different and this way of fighting is also your style and method, but there might be ways to make it better. What you need to do is to listen to others and adopt their suggestion if it was suitable." Sheng Shan Lang grinned.

"If you're not sure whether their suggestion is right or not, you can try to analyze whether the result would bring you benefit or not. That's the simple way for me when I interacted with others."

Feng Ao Si listened to Sheng Shan Lang and nodded solemnly.

Different from Feng Ao Kuai who could learn various classics and adopted the teaching easily. Feng Ao Si would only feel headache when he looked at those various complicated methods that was shown in front of him.

Thus, what he could do was to listen more and learned a bit more of the other things. See whether it was possible to adopt it into his fighting style and if it was suitable, put it into practice.

It was just that whether the result would be good or not sometimes required several trials and error.

The process wouldn't be pretty.

But if the result was good, why not try?

Life is only once. Rather than walking the fixed path that was completely calculated and prepared beforehand, wouldn't it be more interesting to try new things?

Whether they would end up well or not, there were things that could be learned in the process.

"You're right." Feng Ao Si nodded. "I'll try to listen more to my adjutant."

"That's good." Sheng Shan Lang grinned. "Don't overthink things. With our brain, it will only make us tired and we wouldn't benefit much in the end."

Feng Ao Si: "…"

He had the feeling that he was despised, but he could only nod his head.

Knowing his own limitation was probably his only good point. But he also knew that if he didn't change his way, it would be hard for his soldiers to follow him and for him to protect them.

He used to long to become a great general like his grandfather.

And now, he understood that this path to become a great general was not as simple and as good as he used to think when he was young and naïve.

How many people would have to be sacrificed on this path?

How many people died for their dream and couldn't see the fruit of their hard work?

This is the path filled with blood and tears but many people had to step forward because they wanted to contribute. For the sake of themselves, their family, and their kingdom, they all stepped forward.

"I feel better now. How about if we drink some wine? There are some prepared for this banquet." Feng Ao Si was invigorated and pointed towards the table not far from them.

"That's a good idea." Sheng Shan Lang's eyes lit up. "But don't drink too much or we will make another joke of ourselves here."

"Don't worry, I won't."

"Hehehe."

The two of them silently walked towards the table with wine while the other commanders nearby shook their heads. They were all soldiers and naturally knew the temptation of wine.

So, they also go there for drink.

…

After separating from Nan Luo, Feng Ao Kuai talked with the other people and interacted well. At the same time, he was also watching his older brother who looked quite dejected. While he didn't want to make Feng Ao Si's uncomfortable, he knew that the best method for him to make Feng Ao Si's change was through forceful and drastic method.

How many times had Old Master Nan beat Feng Ao Si because of his reckless methods?

It was uncountable and so far, Feng Ao Si had never changed.

Faintly listening to Feng Ao Si and Sheng Shan Lang's conversation, Feng Ao Kuai nodded in his heart. While he felt some dissatisfaction for Sheng Shan Lang's trick to his older brother to be Sheng Shan Lang's brother in law, Sheng Shan Lang's action today was good.

So Feng Ao Kuai silently put away the plan he had prepared for Sheng Shan Lang because of his kidnapping.

Sheng Shan Lang, who didn't know that he had somehow avoided a future prank arranged by Feng Ao Kuai, felt faint chills on his back. He looked around and then focused his attention back to the wine in front of him with a big smile.

Feng Ao Kuai was about to blend with the other officials when he saw Prime Minister Lan walked towards him. Knowing this man's identity and his work behind the scene, Feng Ao Kuai was more respectful on the surface.

"Second Young Commander Feng greets Prime Minister Lan," Feng Ao Kuai greeted politely.

"Second Young Commander Feng," Prime Minister Lan replied unhurriedly. He looked at this young man in front of him up and down. If not for the investigation, he would have never thought that Feng Ao Kuai was such a cunning person. "I have heard of your plan and feel that it's really good. Would you like some help?"
