Chapter 467: The Female General’s Insights
"Yuefeng Country actually has so many soldiers," Song Qingyan also sat next to the Great Chu Emperor, "Their soldiers are originally fewer than ours, and now some of them have been sent to the north."
"How come?"
At this point, Song Qingyan looked up at the Great Chu Emperor: "Your Majesty, have you investigated? Are there any small countries around that would lend them troops?"
Seeing that His Majesty was puzzled, Song Qingyan continued, "We should also pay attention to the Dali Kingdom."
"The ruler of Dali has been under the rule of Dachu for a long time. If he is instigated by Yuefeng, it is inevitable that he will have other ideas."
【Wow!】
[Mother is literally radiating light right now.]
[A light that no one dares to blaspheme! ]
[This is my mother! When I return to the world of immortal cultivation, I will take my mother away and let my master see how powerful my mother is.]
After hearing what Lu Xingwan said, Song Qingyan felt a little embarrassed and stopped immediately.
The Great Chu Emperor also woke up from the shock just now.
He had always known that Qingyan was a clear-headed and insightful woman, but he never expected that she was so smart in military affairs.
He nodded to her and said, "Go on."
What Qingyan said today was a point that no one had ever brought up in the court in the past few days.
[Father, have you ever heard anyone say anything bad about the Dali Kingdom in the court?]
[Guess if there are any spies from the Dali Kingdom among your ministers? ]
[The King of Yiqu is Concubine Wen's brother, and he is worried about her safety, but the Emperor is not. He will definitely have his own little tricks! ]
The Emperor of Great Chu looked down at Lu Xingwan and said nothing.
But he kept the matter in mind, as he still remembered clearly the incident of Yuefeng Country planting spies next to Lord Rong!
I really should conduct a serious investigation of the ministers in the court.
"It seems that Shen Xiao and Song Zhuo are not ruthless enough at the moment, so they are unable to shoulder such a heavy responsibility."
"Second, there is another possibility. The morale of the army has declined, which has caused our army to be unable to fight. As for the reason for this decline in morale, one possibility is that my brother has fallen and the morale of the army has been affected."
"The most terrifying thing is that if their people have infiltrated our military camp."
When Song Qingyan said this, she looked into the eyes of the Emperor of Great Chu.
Then Song Qingyan smiled and said, "But this is all just my guess. Tomorrow I will rush to the west."
"If these two guys don't handle it properly, I'm afraid we'll lose another city." Song Qingyan looked at the Great Chu Emperor with concern, "Your Majesty, don't be angry. We can always get it back."
【That's not just about taking it back.】
[Uproot the Yuefeng Kingdom and make it our vassal state. Give Helian Hengxin and Helian Renxin a piece of land each and let them fight on their own! ]
[In the story, the Yuefeng Kingdom was stirring up trouble everywhere, but there was peace for many years. ]
[Although the people are innocent, when the Yuefeng Kingdom attacked us, they didn’t think about our people! ]
[As for the Dali Kingdom, if they really take action, we should just sanction them as well. ]
[It seems that the world has been peaceful for a long time. ]
[It makes them forget how decisive my father was in killing people. ]
The Great Chu Emperor was so overwhelmed by what Lu Xingwan said that he didn't even hold Song Qingyan's hand, but looked at her as if she were a minister: "Qingyan, my Zhenxi General, everything depends on you."
In fact, the Emperor of Great Chu has also figured it out these days.
It's a good thing for Qingyan to go through this.
She is now in the harem, and she only thinks about hiding away, which makes the concubines in the harem forget the great contributions she once made to the Great Chu State.
He is confident that he will win a great victory on this expedition.
By then, the concubines in the harem would naturally not dare to disrespect Qingyan and her daughter.
This is the real way to protect her safety.
On the other hand, the Emperor of Great Chu also had his own selfish motives.
Now that the Empress has passed away and the world is in chaos, the court officials cannot take care of it.
But once the world is stable, I am afraid that the ministers in the court will bring up the issue of establishing a queen again.
If Qingyan had made military achievements, it would be different.
By then, no one whose status was higher than Qingyan would dare to disrespect this heroine who fought for her country and her people on the battlefield.
However, considering Qingyan's status, it is not appropriate for her to be canonized as queen.
This vacant back position is what I ultimately want.
Just like now, it is not bad. Concubine Lan is now in charge of the affairs of the six palaces, and she handles them very well. I am also very satisfied.
That day, Song Qingyan stayed in Longsheng Palace for a long time.
Because she had to set out tomorrow, His Majesty would naturally not keep her. Song Qingyan returned to Qingyun Palace probably before midnight.
"Go to sleep!" Song Qingyan signaled Jinyu to put down the already sleeping Lu Xingwan, then turned to look at the two of them, "You are the last one to sleep soundly."
After tomorrow, I will start to be on the road.
When he arrived at the Western Camp, he had endless things to worry about, and there was no chance to rest until the Yuefeng Kingdom surrendered.
Moreover, this time, what they want is no longer the surrender of Yuefeng Kingdom, but to take over Yuefeng Kingdom directly.
We must let the whole world see that our Great Chu Emperor is not incapable of fighting or not good at fighting, but is unwilling to fight.
But as long as the Great Chu State takes action, it will still be unmatched in the world.
After lying down, Song Qingyan tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep, so she simply pulled Jinyu, who was keeping watch, over to chat with her: "I will definitely go first tomorrow, you guys don't have to worry about following behind."
"I know everything," Jinyu was actually worried about tomorrow's events, "I'm just worried that Princess Yong'an will miss you."
"Since the princess was born, she has never left the majesty."
Song Qingyan was not very worried about this matter. After all, Wanwan was a fairy, so how could she "make trouble" over such a trivial matter?
"Don't worry," Song Qingyan waved her hands, "Wanwan is a sensible child and won't make things difficult for you."
“Just be sure to stay safe.”
"Even though Prince Pei is with you, His Majesty will also send some guards to be with you."
"Mei Ying and Lan Ying will also follow you secretly, so I think there shouldn't be any big problems."
Jinyu also nodded hurriedly, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, just go to the front and fight. We will protect the princess and will definitely send her back safely."
Song Qingyan shook her head: "Not just Wanwan, all of you must come to my side safely."
"Hmm!" Seeing that Song Qingyan was already sleepy, Jinyu nodded solemnly and agreed, then stood up and covered Song Qingyan with the quilt, "Your Majesty, go to sleep quickly. You are really exhausted today."
Song Qingyan gradually closed her eyes, but Jinyu didn't dare to make a sound, for fear of disturbing the queen, and only started thinking about tomorrow's affairs.
