Bei Mingxuan didn't want to hide anything from Chang'an, but Gu Qingfeng adhered to the principle that the less he knew, the better.
Chang An glanced at Bei Mingxuan, then glanced at his father, "Haven't you discussed this?"
The question is like saying, "Look, you didn't discuss it beforehand, and now you've been exposed!"
"That's all." Gu Qingfeng smiled. "I'm just guessing. I don't know if it's true or not. I need Your Highness to explain it to me."
"Just as Mr. Qingfeng guessed." Bei Mingxuan smiled.
Chang'an and Gu Qingfeng didn't care, knowing that Bei Mingxuan's words "Mr. Qingfeng" were just a habit.
Gu Qingfeng held his breath, "How much?"
"Fifty thousand soldiers and twenty thousand cavalry." Bei Mingxuan's brows knitted together at the mention of this. "But there's no plan, and I can't find anyone who's both capable and reliable."
Gu Qingfeng was shocked. He had never expected Bei Mingxuan to do so much so quietly. "How long has it been?"
"About... four years." Bei Mingxuan recalled, "If we talk about the time from the beginning of preparation to now, it should have been many, many years. From the moment I killed King Yi with my own hands, I already had the idea in my mind, and from that moment on, I began to prepare bit by bit. It was not until four years ago that it gradually took shape."
"After so many years of getting along with you, I have only come to this conclusion through my understanding of you. I feel that you will definitely have troops.
I didn't expect you to have prepared so much, and I had never even noticed." Gu Qingfeng's eyes were filled with approval and pride.
"I'm lucky to have been hiding from Mr. Qingfeng for so long without being discovered." Bei Mingxuan had a smile on his lips from beginning to end. "It's just that there has never been a suitable person to discipline them. In my heart, the most suitable person is only Mr. Qingfeng."
"I'm old." Gu Qingfeng refused. "Besides, I haven't been involved in anything related to the military for so many years. If I talk about it occasionally, it's just empty talk."
"I know what you mean, sir, so I haven't dared to speak rashly." Bei Mingxuan stared directly at Gu Qingfeng, his eyes never leaving Chang'an. "So, sir, do you have anyone suitable to recommend?"
"There is someone I can recommend to you," Gu Qingfeng said, "but whether he is suitable or not is up to you to decide."
"Gu Qingyun's staff member, Shan Shuixing."
Chang'an blinked and looked at his father. Shan Shuixing? This man was the leader of the Fusheng Sect and the Fire Sect, Yan Huo, whose real name was Shan Yan.
She once obeyed her mother's orders and stayed by Gu Qingfeng's side.
Later, he followed Gu Qingyun's arrangements and served under General Gu Qingyun.
"Okay." Bei Mingxuan thought, "I'll keep an eye on this person."
"Actually, over the years," Gu Qingyun said, "almost all of my sources of information come from him."
"So, General Gu, even after making the wrong decisions many times, was still able to turn defeat into victory." Chang An said sullenly, "After all, we are from the same roots. Dad will never let General Gu do anything wrong."
"Haha, you little girl." Gu Qingfeng laughed a little, "It's true that we are born from the same roots, but as a father, I have my bottom line. He will get his retribution for what he did to you over the years.
As for why his father helped him, it was simply because he could not bear to see the lives of millions of soldiers die in conspiracies and intrigues.
Even if they have to die, they should die honorably on the battlefield."
"Conspiracies, intrigues, and deceptions, all in all." Bei Mingxuan asked directly, "Could it be that when the general was dispatching troops, he had some kind of collaboration with the enemy?"
“…” Gu Qingfeng was stunned. He realized that he had said too much.
For a moment, I actually overlooked that what Bei Mingxuan could not tolerate the most was treason.
"It's just a worry, you don't need to worry about it." Gu Qingfeng smiled bitterly, his face calm and composed, as if he was talking about something insignificant. "A new emperor has new ministers, this is unchanging. No matter what, the position of general will be replaced sooner or later."
These words were considered as Gu Qingfeng's statement.
Bei Mingxuan's gaze fell on Chang'an. "I will redeem you for the grievances you suffered in the General's Mansion."
"It's more satisfying if I do this kind of thing myself." Chang'an said, with a hint of hatred in the depths of his eyes.
Gu Qingfeng noticed his daughter's expression and realized that Chang'an's hatred didn't seem as strong as before.
While pondering in his mind, he glanced at Bei Mingxuan again.
I became even more certain in my heart that it was all because of Bei Mingxuan. It must be because he warmed Chang'an and drove away some of the hatred in Chang'an's heart.
"New Year's Eve is coming soon." Bei Mingxuan asked, "Mr. Qingfeng, don't you plan to celebrate and leave on New Year's Eve?"
"No." Gu Qingfeng had his own plans.
The main reason was that he had found the whereabouts of Master Fuyou. If he delayed any further, he might lose the chance to find him again. "This year's New Year's Eve is the wedding of Gu Shijia and the Crown Prince. I don't like such a lively atmosphere. Besides, I feel relieved that you are with me in Chang'an."
As he spoke, Gu Qingfeng added, "Qin is crazy. The mansion is very busy with this matter."
Chang'an raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that Meng Sichan's method was so good.
Bei Mingxuan raised the corners of his lips and spoke slowly, "It wasn't Meng Sichan, it was Gu Shijia who personally administered the drug, causing Qin to go insane."
“…” Changan was surprised.
Gu Qingfeng seemed to be thinking about something.
Bei Mingxuan looked at the father and daughter and felt a little embarrassed.
He raised his hand and rubbed the tip of his nose. "Sorry, I just couldn't stand the future Crown Princess being so aggressive, so I asked someone to give her a packet of medicine."
Chang'an curled his lips in displeasure, "You haven't even experienced the joys of life yet, and you've already gone straight to the Buddha in the West?"
The revenge on Qin has just begun, and people have gone crazy. How can we continue to play in the future?
This is a naked complaint against Bei Mingxuan!
I knew that this result would not satisfy Chang'an.
Bei Mingxuan took a sip of wine and glanced at Ni Changan, "I'm conscious, but I can't control my actions or words."
Only then did Chang'an raise the corners of his lips in satisfaction.
Only when people are clear-minded,
The pain is now unforgettable.
Gu Qingfeng listened to their conversation and shook his head helplessly, "Chang'an, I don't think you have anything important to do right now. Let Meng Tan accompany you to my study and move your things to Prince Xuan's mansion."
"Moving to Prince Xuan's Mansion?" Chang'an didn't understand. "What is Dad going to do?"
"Mr. Qingfeng, are you planning not to come back in the short term?" For some reason, Bei Mingxuan's heart skipped a beat. He always felt that Gu Qingfeng's departure this time seemed a little unreasonable.
Gu Qingfeng smiled lightly, "Well... maybe if I find a place I like, I might live there for a year or two."
