197: Chapter 197 The Whereabouts of the Biological Parents! Old Stories Revisited!

Seeing Li Mo say these words, the government officials were all, for a moment, somewhat ashamed.

In reality, much of the government's finances could not withstand close scrutiny once made transparent, but the fact that Li Mo dared to do so proved that he had no fear of investigation at all.

Li Mo's words also completely silenced the opposition.

Because if they were to object further, it would be clearly setting the government against The Military.

At that point, all the grassroots soldiers would be dissatisfied!

Including even the Royal Capital Imperial Guard!

It was clear that even the commissioners of the Great Xia did not expect that Li Mo, a young man not yet twenty, would possess such courage.

At this moment, Commissioner Liu Quan swept his gaze across the crowd with a cold face, then continued: "Do you all have any other objections? I know you are all afraid that the incident of The Military rebelling will happen again! But don't forget, when all is said and done, The Military is our country's armed force! If we didn't have The Military, I think all of your safety would be in jeopardy, wouldn't it?"

At this very moment, no one dared to oppose the matter of Li Mo stationing troops in the Misibi Mountain Region.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Commissioner Liu Quan began to initiate the vote.

"Good! I see that no one has any further objections, so those who agree with Li Mo stationing troops in the Misibi Mountain Region, please raise your hands to vote!"

This time, everyone in the hall raised their hands, proving that the matter of Li Mo stationing troops was passed unanimously!

The Military delegation led by Zhao Zhenyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Especially Li Mo; to be honest, sitting in the Congress Hall for these few hours was far more torturous than the most difficult days he had spent on the battlefield.

If possible, he really didn't want to deal with this bunch of politicians.

But he also understood that if these politicians were gone, the country would immediately lose its operations and fall into a state of paralysis, so dealing with this group could not be done through force.

The incident two hundred years ago, when Marshal Chen Han led The Military to purge the capital, was enough to have happened once; after all, with every major reshuffling of power, it was the common people who truly suffered.

Fortunately, the result was good. With Zhao Zhenyuan threatening resignation and Li Mo arguing his case logically, the resolution for Li Mo to station troops in the Misibi Mountain Region was finally passed.

As for the subsequent meeting, it was very simple, consisting of some polite formalities and matters regarding commendations for The Military.

Using the excuse of preparing to station troops, Li Mo took the people from the Independent Regiment and left the meeting early; of course, his goal was to rest for a few days.

Having finally fought a victorious battle, and with the handover procedures for the Misibi Mountain Region still requiring some time, Li Mo naturally wanted to give himself a long vacation.

At the same time, he also allowed all the cadres of the Independent Regiment to take leave. Except for Xu Feng, everyone's home was in the capital, and upon hearing this, everyone praised Li Mo endlessly.

"Long live the Regiment Commander!"

"Regiment Commander Li, you really are a living Bodhisattva reborn!"

Facing everyone's flattery, Li Mo couldn't help but laugh and cry, then immediately laughed and scolded: "Get lost, all of you!"

Watching the backs of the crowd as they walked away, Li Mo couldn't help but sigh; he was truly a bit tired.

And when people are tired, they often miss home the most.

Li Mo opened his phone and immediately located a new address; that was the new residence of his Aunt and younger sister.

Ever since Li Mo joined The Military, he had sent most of his income back home. After all, he possessed the System and had gained the favor of the Marshal, so he didn't need money at all.

Moreover, he used the benefits he received from his promotions to successfully get his Aunt and younger sister to move into a large flat within the city district of the capital.

Not long after, Li Mo arrived outside the property under his name. This place had an open view and excellent landscaping, and it was in a prime location in the capital, which was a world of difference compared to the slums he had lived in before.

Li Mo stood before the door, about to knock, when he suddenly felt a chill behind him. He instinctively reached back and grabbed, only to find he had caught a familiar wrist.

At this moment, his younger sister, Li Xue, was unleashing an ice blade to attack him, though this ice blade had no real attack power.

Li Mo couldn't help but smile dotingly: "You little rascal, you've only just entered the Martial Arts High School, and you already dare to hit your brother!"

Because Li Mo often sent money back, Li Xue's tuition fees were naturally well taken care of.

Li Xue not only enrolled in the best Martial Arts High School in the capital, but she had also awakened the SS-rank Ice-type talent, Abyss Profound Ice, which naturally made Li Mo, as her brother, extremely proud.

However, having been caught so easily by Li Mo, Li Xue was a bit unhappy. Seeing her pout, she chided: "Brother! Won't you let me win? Just pretend to let me succeed in a sneak attack!"

It turned out that a few days ago, Li Xue had officially embarked on the path of the Martial Artist and achieved the first rank of the Hidden Edge Realm. She was currently in high spirits, and if she could successfully sneak attack Li Mo, it would likely become a talking point at school in the future.

After all, Li Mo was currently the most sought-after rising military star in Great Xia, with no one capable of surpassing him.

However, Li Xue did not know that Li Mo was already going easy on her; if Li Mo had used even a little bit of force just now, Li Xue would have been decapitated.

It was precisely because Li Mo had sensed Li Xue's aura that he held back.

However, Li Mo had always been doting on this younger sister, so he laughed and said: "Alright, alright, alright! Then you try again, this time I won't dodge!"

"Really?"

"Could there be any falsehood in that?"

Just as the brother and sister were playing around, their Aunt opened the door with a darkened face and immediately grabbed Li Xue by the ear.

"How old are you now! Still playing jokes on your brother, get in here right now!"

"Mom! I know I was wrong! Brother is so amazing now! I just wanted to show off in front of my classmates!"

Watching this scene, Li Mo couldn't help but feel emotional; home was indeed the best place!

His Aunt had known in advance that Li Mo was coming back, so she had long since prepared a feast of Li Mo's favorite foods.

After a while, having eaten and drunk to his fill, Li Mo first apologized to his Aunt.

"Aunt! I'm sorry, I just gave up a Star Crystal Mine not long ago! If I had that Star Crystal Mine, perhaps I could have provided you and my sister with better material conditions!"

Upon hearing that Li Mo had actually given up a Star Crystal Mine, his Aunt was first greatly shocked, but then she waved her hand dismissively and said: "Your sister and I are fine! Besides, our current conditions are already very good! We made it through the environment we were in before, so why would we worry now?"

"Xiao Mo! Aunt is proud of you! You finally did not let down your parents and your uncle! You have become an excellent soldier!"

His Aunt was always like this, asking for nothing in return, which instead made Li Mo often feel indebted.

It was not easy for her to raise Li Mo and Li Xue all by herself, yet she had never complained.

However, for some reason, as his Aunt spoke, her tone suddenly became choked with emotion.

"Xiao Mo, there is actually something Aunt doesn't want to ask of you, but Aunt has no choice and can only bring it up to you!"

This was the first time Li Mo had seen his Aunt looking this helpless, so he quickly said: "Aunt, we are family, don't talk about asking or not asking; if there is something, just tell me!"

"All these years, Aunt has actually never been able to let go of your uncle! I have never believed that he is dead! And your parents! They were such powerful people! You now have a certain status in The Military! Is there really no news about them?"
