Now that the war is finally over, He Jue's sworn brothers and sisters are laden with military honors, while He Jue is dragging cart loads of gold and silver jewelry, ancient books, and paintings.
However, He Jue is quite young and exceedingly handsome, so even though he is as greedy as a pixiu, people do not find him repulsive.
Many military leaders, such as Duke Qin who cooperated with Ms. Hetian this time, quite like He Jue and are willing to turn a blind eye to his various acts of avarice.
Otherwise, no matter how much of a debauchee He Jue was, he wouldn't dare to openly transport the spoils of war.
"Oh dear, it's been over ten years since I've seen Xiao Bao, I wonder what kind of young man he's become now."
"But, he must be a promising and good child. He was good-looking as a child, and with a capable mother like you, he must be even better!"
Mr. Tian spoke the praises half-heartedly.
Though he said these things aloud, in his heart he didn't believe them.
