If only Jiang Li knew about the tiger tally in Jiang Ke's hand getting burned, he would not have let the court be dismissed that easily. He would have used that as another weapon against the Marshal, and a tool to also anger the Emperor.
Sadly, he didn't know. So the Marshal, who naturally wouldn't disclose that secret, was spared from getting scolded by the son of heaven. He was even able to have some time to exchange 'pointers' with Jiang Li a couple of streets away from the palace. Of course, neither of them ended up injured. While the Marshal was annoyed that he was at the same level as someone younger by two decades than him, Jiang Li was annoyed that he couldn't land a blow on the Marshal even though he had already done his best to anger and distract him during the fight.

Laughing so hard when I was writing this chapter. I've done a bit of research, I didn't know if people greet, they have to compose poetic verse or something. XD
*peace*
Thanks for reading btw.
