Qiao Lian'er pondered: "You mean, Lieutenant Pang also harbors treacherous ambitions towards his superiors, intending to replace them?"
"Although Lieutenant General He is a bit overweight, he has always been in excellent health. In all these years, there has never been a situation where he cannot even train his soldiers like this."
Have you seen a doctor?
"After examining her, they couldn't find the cause. She just feels weak and tired and needs more rest."
Qiao Lian'er certainly didn't care whether Deputy General He lived or died. Deputy General He had colluded with Lieutenant Pang, and he was no good either.
However, if Vice General He really runs into trouble, Lieutenant Pang may be the next to take his place.
Now, Ponda is training his army, needless to say, to get to know his subordinates better so that he can better plan for the future.
She said, "It would be better to let them fight like dogs, fight amongst themselves, and die from blood loss."
Pei Shijiu frowned slightly: "But Vice General He trusts Pang Da a lot. He was originally a Lieutenant General, and it was Pang Da who came up with the idea to make him one of the four vice generals."
"If there is any evidence, it is that the doctor was able to find something strange on Vice General He's body, but even the doctor we arranged went into the Inner Army Headquarters and did not find anything wrong."
It turns out that Pei Shijiu was already taking action.
Currently, only if Deputy General He knows that Pang Da is plotting against him will he develop a grudge against Pang Da, and even personally dismiss Pang Da, making him a stray dog once again.
At that time, we won't have to put in much effort to take care of Ponda.
"If someone has a health problem, how can the cause not be found based on the symptoms?" She found it somewhat unbelievable.
Pei Shijiu remained silent, clearly also pondering this question.
"I will go and see for myself," Qiao Lian'er decided.
"It's not advisable to take the risk. The inner military headquarters is dangerous, and you can't trespass. If you get caught, it's a serious crime."
"Do you think I'll let them find me?" Qiao Lian'er blinked.
Pei Shijiu thought of his special abilities and said nothing more, only saying, "Be careful. I'll wait for you outside. If anything seems wrong, I'll come and get you."
"Okay, don't make it too obvious, lest it arouse their suspicion."
Pei Shijiu smiled slyly, his eyes sparkling like stars: "Little girl, you can rest assured about what I do."
The wedding festivities continued into the evening.
Master Pei, drunk, held his son-in-law's hand and said, "I only have one daughter. She has been carefree since she was a child and has never suffered any grievances. Dacheng, I entrust her to you. You must not let her down. The thing I can't bear to see most in my life is the tears on my wife's and daughter's faces."
"Father, don't worry. It's my blessing to marry Qingrong. I cherish her so much. I will definitely treat her well in the future, so that she won't fall or melt away."
Da Cheng spoke somewhat incoherently, revealing his true feelings, while downing the half-glass of wine in one gulp.
Then he stood up, leaning on the table for support, his eyes searching for the bride: "I'm not drinking anymore, I'm not drinking anymore, I'm going to go with my wife."
Everyone covered their mouths and laughed. How skillfully she called her wife! It must have been the first time she had called her that before they got married.
Someone joked, "The bride isn't here, she's in the bridal chamber. Brother Dacheng, you'd better not mistake her for someone else."
Da Cheng waved his hand again: "How could that be? I only have one wife. I would recognize her even if she were ashes."
Then, he staggered to the room and pushed the door open.
Grandma Qiao smiled with great satisfaction. Her children had all grown up and started their own families, and she was holding her great-grandchildren one by one. She was so happy.
Ms. Wan wiped away a tear from the corner of her eye; she was so happy and excited.
"Next up is Da Meng. There are so many good girls in the capital. I wonder if Da Meng has any he likes," said Old Man Qiao.
He's an old man; if he could see his grandchildren all settled down before he's buried, he would die without regrets.
Before leaving, Pei Shijiu handed a note to Qiao Lian'er, which showed the exact location of Vice General He's room.
As night fell, seeing her family members still full of energy, Qiao Lian'er decided to spend the night with them and take action tomorrow.
Grandma Qiao called her to a warm room and asked her to sit down next to her, but hesitated to speak.
"Grandma, just say what's on your mind," Qiao Lian'er said.
“Lian’er, you’ll be fifteen in February of next year. I wonder what your plans are for the future. You’re still young, so it’s not appropriate to talk about these things. But you’re a precocious child, and I believe you can understand what I mean.”
Qiao Lian'er knew that her family would say these things sooner or later.
"I will not marry him," she said firmly.
"I want to stay in the Qiao family forever."
Grandma Qiao's eyes lit up, as if she were keeping an irreplaceable treasure with her forever.
The happiness, excitement, and joy were indescribable; my mind was completely blank, and I was almost disoriented.
So what if there are so many sons in the family? She and her husband both still want Lian'er to stay at home.
If Lian'er wanted to get married, it would be like tearing her heart out.
Only Lian'er is the backbone of the Qiao family and can support the future of this family. Lian'er is the main branch of the Qiao family. After the two elders pass away and the Qiao family divides up, she will still be the most prosperous and grand branch.
The reason for wanting Lian'er to stay is not just out of kinship. In this era, kinship will never be a reason to keep a young woman. It is because Lian'er's abilities are irreplaceable and she will lead the Qiao family to become stronger and stronger.
Such outstanding descendants are something other families could only dream of for generations to come.
How could Old Lady Qiao be willing to let people go?
Thinking of one thing, she sighed slightly: "Grandma was so happy to hear you say that. Good child, you are a remarkable young lady, not only in terms of ability, but also in terms of your rare ideas. However, Grandma can see that the second young master of the Pei family is interested in you. He protects you and helps you in everything. But the Pei family is a powerful family with a different surname. Although they have two legitimate sons, how could the Prince Pei bear to let his younger son come to our family as a son-in-law?"
Qiao Lian'er hesitated for a moment: "I won't force him. If he's willing, he can come in a few years. If he's not willing, then someone else will come."
"But Lian'er, he's been so good to you, are you really willing to let him go?" Old Mrs. Qiao said with a touch of bitterness.
The second young master of the Pei family is becoming more and more composed, but he is also more willing to risk everything for Lian'er.
The more she looked at the child, the more she liked him. Although he was arrogant and unruly, he was humble in front of his elders.
