Chapter 270 I also think you are not good enough
Minister Cao: ...
Crowd:......
They didn't expect him to be so righteous.
And they looked at the emperor's face.
The emperor showed no emotion and his eyebrows didn't even twitch.
Obviously it is acquiescence, and acquiescence is tolerance.
He also changed the subject: "In order to avoid the accident that happened last time when we supported Texas, when the gunpowder got damp and no one could handle it, Zhou Huanjiu should also go with us this time."
After a general discussion on the candidate, Bei Qin was appointed as a guard.
The only thing left to decide is the commander-in-chief.
The emperor dismissed all his ministers and left only Bei Jingchu.
She thought Aye wanted to discuss things with her alone, so she picked her nails out of boredom, but he suddenly said, "You go be the chief commander."
Bei Jingchu: ??? This sudden pressure!
“I don’t think I can do it,” she cried.
Aye, who thought he had blind faith in her ability, also echoed, "I also think you can't do it."
Bei Jingchu: ??? Lao Deng, what’s wrong with you?
Anyway, Old Deng couldn't hear her thoughts now, so the filial daughter complained madly in her heart.
The emperor even instructed: "After this, don't make trouble by making comments. Just be a mascot."
"I will send you a deputy general. You must obey him in everything."
Now, Bei Jingchu understood: "Aye wants me to be a nominal commander. This time, defeating Tuning is a sure thing. If I win, it will add glory to my resume."
"Well, you're not that stupid. Go get ready."
It was not until the last day before the troops were to be mobilized that Bei Jingchu told Xin'er the news.
"You mean, you're going to set out tomorrow to attack Tunning?"
"Yes, this is a secret. Please forgive me for telling you only when I can no longer keep it secret on the last day."
"Sister Xin'er, we can avenge her now."
Neither of them needs to say who this "she" is, the person who lives in their shared memories.
When Xiner heard the news, she asked, "I want to go too."
"I know I can't help you, but I won't cause any trouble for you."
The little girl was overwhelmed with hatred. She prayed, "Even if it means just cooking and feeding the horses, as long as I can help the Dai Viet army, it will be fine. This time of revenge will be considered as my fulfillment of my heart and my filial piety to my mother."
"Your Highness, sister. This shouldn't be a difficult task for you, right?"
"Let me go, let me get my revenge."
This is indeed not a difficult task. It is Xiner's spiritual pillar and the source of motivation for her to live hard.
How could she bear to refuse?
One of the deputy generals this time is Lei Nian'er.
The other one was sent by Aye as an assistant in name only but actually the chief commander's adjutant. Bei Jingchu met him when they set out.
"Your Highness, I am Mu Chuyuan, and I pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"Your Highness, I have to say this before. You are only ten years old. If His Majesty wishes to promote you, I am willing to cooperate."
"But marching is not a child's play. You can't act recklessly. Just sit in the big tent and don't cause any trouble."
"Just think of it as a long journey."
"If you think you are so self-righteous and interfere with the military mission, don't blame me for insubordination."
Bei Jingchu:......
What he said makes sense, but what can I do if I get angry after being taught a lesson?
Bei Jingchu chose to teach him back: "Deputy General Mu, do you know why you are obviously capable but have not been promoted for so long?"
Mu Chuyuan was stunned and asked subconsciously: "Why?"
"Because you can't speak, you could have used gentle words to advise me."
"For example, they said that I am young and not suitable for hard work, so I will leave the hard work to you. If I want to learn, I will follow you and watch, so that it is less likely to cause trouble and it will be safer to go out to fight."
"But you just come up with a warning."
"Tell me, why does your superior like you?"
He was stunned by what he said, thinking blankly.
Bei Jingchu regained her dignity and climbed onto the horse, making a victory gesture with her hands hidden behind her back.
During the lunch break, Zhou Huanjiu, who witnessed everything from behind, talked about this incident: "Chuchu has become more and more proficient in grasping the information of the ministers in the court. At a glance, I can remember that this Deputy General Mu has talent but has not been promoted for many years."
Bei Jingchu took a bite of the barbecue and said vaguely, "I don't know. I'm just guessing."
Zhou Huanjiu: ???
Bei Jingchu had been hungry for the whole morning and was busy eating, so she had no time to answer questions for the confused child.
Bei Qin on the side kindly explained: "Your Majesty has chosen Vice General Mu to be your adjutant this time. He must be a capable man."
"Your reputation has not been high these years, and you have the audacity to warn the Crown Prince. You must have offended many people, so it is naturally difficult for you to be promoted."
Bei Jingchu nodded to show his approval of his own Zhanshi.
Zhou Huanjiu: ???
No, what's going on in your mind?
