1008: Two Sons' Conflicts 2

Two Sons' Conflicts 2

The words had just been spoken…1

Zhou Huaijin threw a look at Zhou Huailing, frowning. It was a serious thing that happened at Li County. Many people had died. He was not that willing to take over this task. If someone else in the court had the intention of taking it over, Zhou Huaijin planned to take a step backwards and spare the seat for them, but that competitor was Zhou Huailing, so Zhou Huaijin very much wanted to take it instead of him.

At the end of last year, when it was snowing so heavily in the Saint Divine Land, many refugees came to the capital. All of them suffered from starvation and many civilians died from the cold. Zhou Huaijin had seen clearly how Zhou Huailing dealt with that matter. So this time, when civilians from Li County were attacked, Zhou Huaijin knew clearly what Zhou Huailing was up to. When he was Lord Ling, he never thought about letting others do the errands. Now that he was the Heir it was even less likely that he would share this errand with anyone else.

He did not think that Zhou Huailing was doing it for the civilians of Li County.

He was probably going to cause secondary trouble for the civilians.

Zhou Huaijin waited for a while, but no other ministers stepped forward to take this over instead of Zhou Huailing. So he insisted. "Father, I have not been given any other errands to do right now in the capital, so I would like to personally head to Li County to deal with this matter. I promise to give you a very satisfying answer. If the answer isn't up to your standard, I will never take over any errands in the future!"

Zhou Huaijin made the promise resolutely.

Zhou Huailing threw him a glare.

He was very displeased by Zhou Huaijin at this moment.

When Zhou Huaijin went out of the capital, he had believed that Zhou Huaijin knew how the situation was now that his mother was gone and his brother got endowed as the Heir. He should realize that he was of no use in the capital right now. If he just went out of the capital and had fun anywhere else with his Sixth Brother, no one would have a hand in his business.

However, this man returned while their Sixth Brother was still out there!

Well, he could just stay in the capital without making any fuss, yet now he was out here, making a petition to take over some errands! Was he still thinking that he was the son father loved? Did he still believe that as long as he did well in his errands, father would approve of his abilities and existence?

Zhou Huailing ironically laughed at Zhou Huaijin.

This brother of his was so naive, too naive actually.

If father had ever paid attention to him, he would not have asked him to let go of his Lord Huai's Mansion for the expansion.

This brother of his knew nothing about his position!

Well…

He should watch and learn who was eventually going to take over this errand, after all.

Zhou Huailing took a step forward and said as if with justice. "Father, I would like to travel to Li County to deal with the matter there. I have experience with many errands in the capital, including the matter of refugees. What happens at Li County is really huge, and we must take it seriously and make sure it is handled well. Also, I went to Li County a while ago, so I have a clear knowledge of the geographic situation there. I believe that I am more suitable to take this over. Eighth Brother is relatively young and he has never had any experience with dealing with any such matters before. I don't think it is wise to entrust him to take over this serious matter at his first try. Please, let me go there instead," Zhou Huailing said, as he stood still, showing a very honest look on his face.

The King glanced between the two sons of his, and then he sighed.

Both of them were out there for the civilians of Li County, which was a good thing. However…
