Chapter 140 You two should have a discussion
Yu Mengqing did not answer the two of them, but instead changed the subject and asked:
"How's your training been lately?"
When it comes to this topic, the two of them become excited.
"Mengqing, you're right. We've been practicing martial arts since we were young, but even so, we always feel tired at the beginning. After persisting for a month, the results are really nothing to joke about. I think I've made a lot of progress."
Guo Peiying said proudly.
Hearing this, Yu Mengqing was extremely satisfied.
He turned his head to look at Xue Zhonglan and asked, "What about you?"
Xue Zhonglan is more shy and not as direct as Guo Peiying.
However, he also nodded slightly to Yu Mengqing, and the smile in his eyes was obvious.
As if she had thought of something, Yu Mengruo beside her said softly:
"How about you two have a sparring match and let my elder sister give you some pointers?"
Hearing this, the two of them looked at Yu Mengqing with shining eyes.
Yu Mengqing: "..."
Inside the arena.
Xue Zhonglan and Guo Peiying stood in the center and soon attracted a lot of onlookers.
"Big sister, guess who will win between the two of them."
"Zhonglan will win." Yu Mengqing said without thinking.
"Why?" Yu Mengruo asked curiously.
"intuition."
Yu Mengruo: “…”
So the reason why the elder sister was so sure just now was just because of her own intuition?
Sure enough, the two people in the arena had decided the winner in just a quarter of an hour.
There is no doubt that Xue Zhonglan wins.
Looking at her elder sister who curled her lips slightly, Yu Meng would never believe that it was her elder sister's intuition even if she was beaten to death.
"If I had known earlier, I would have trained with Zhonglan sooner. My martial arts skills were obviously similar to hers before. It's just that I started training a little later than her, but there's such a big difference."
Guo Peiying, who came down to compete, complained.
"It's you who wants to be lazy, who can you blame?"
Xue Zhonglan tapped her forehead and said helplessly.
Hearing this, Yu Mengfen immediately felt that she had fallen into a trap.
I turned my head to look at Yu Mengqing who looked very calculating. Why did I feel that the elder sister was so much like an old fox?
"Sister, can I train in this military camp like them in the future?" Yu Mengruo asked.
Hearing this, Yu Mengqing stopped immediately and looked at Yu Mengruo very seriously.
The girl in front of him was only eight years old, but she was very capable and decisive.
Compared to her original self, she is much better.
But after all, she is a young lady, and her vision when looking at the world is still a bit narrow.
Thinking of this, Yu Mengqing said to her very seriously:
"Meng Ruo, I know you don't like martial arts, and I should respect your choice, but you know what? At your age, there are many things to learn, and martial arts is only part of what I will teach you."
"The most important reason I teach you martial arts is that I believe it strengthens your body and can protect you when necessary. You also need to learn knowledge, including the Four Books and Five Classics. I hope you understand all of these."
In fact, when it comes to martial arts, Yu Mengqing hopes that Yu Mengruo can learn what she likes.
In fact, Yu Mengqing knew that the reason why Yu Mengruo practiced martial arts was not because she really liked it, but because she was taking herself as an example.
She wanted to be a woman with great martial arts skills like herself.
But in Yu Mengqing's eyes, she hopes that Yu Mengruo can be her true self.
"Sister, I..."
Having said this, Yu Mengruo's eyes had turned red and she could no longer speak.
She thought that if she didn't tell her, her elder sister wouldn't understand.
So she always forced herself to be a person like her elder sister, so that her elder sister would not abandon them and would not dislike them.
Little did he know that his elder sister had already known all this.
"Don't cry, Meng Ruo. Do whatever you like, but there is one thing you must remember: you will always be my sister. As long as I am here, I will never abandon you. But I also hope that you can be your true selves again."
Hearing these words, Yu Mengruo could no longer hold back, hugged Yu Mengqing, and burst into tears...
Yu Mengqing didn't stop her and just let her hug her.
Over the past few months, Yu Mengqing has always known that she was worried.
She didn't talk to herself because she understood Yu Mengruo. When she didn't want to speak, no matter what she said, it would be useless.
Now that she has found an outlet to vent her emotions, she naturally won't stop it.
Next, Yu Mengqing went to check on the new recruits and found that there were no major problems.
Only then did I breathe a sigh of relief.
"Are you still recruiting new soldiers?" Yu Mengqing asked Li Xionghui.
"Yes, we have. After the last batch was kicked out, we have been recruiting. But it is not easy to recruit. The older ones are not suitable, and the younger ones can't stand the hardship of the training."
Li Xionghui spoke to Yu Mengqing based on the facts.
Yu Mengqing nodded. She had a premonition about this.
But she is a person who would rather be alone than be with someone who is not good enough.
If he is not the right material, there is no need to recruit him because he will just come here to die.
Only if you can endure the hardships in this regard will you have the opportunity to advance with them in the war.
Otherwise it would just be suicide.
Whose life is not life?
If you just want to come here to make a living, then there is no need to come here, as this is not a charity.
"How many new recruits have you recruited so far?"
"More than 16,000 people, a little short of the original requirement of 20,000 people," said Li Xionghui.
After hearing his words, Yu Mengqing didn't say anything else.
Relatively speaking, she is quite satisfied with this number.
She thought she could only recruit 15,000 at most, but now there are more than 1,000 more, which is already very good.
"but……"
"But what?" Yu Mengqing asked.
"But according to my investigation, those people seem to have gone to another military camp."
"Another military camp? What's going on?"
"If I'm not mistaken, he should have gone to the Pingding Marquis Mansion." Li Xionghui said truthfully.
Hearing this, Yu Mengqing nodded in understanding.
She knew that the Pingding Marquis' Mansion was also constantly recruiting new soldiers.
She was making her moves openly, while they were making their moves covertly.
In this case, the new recruits they rejected should have gone to him.
Thinking of this, Yu Mengqing felt much more relieved.
You know, a good and excellent soldier can fight against several people alone.
From this it seems that the intention of the Pingding Marquis' Mansion to rebel has become obvious.
All the peace we have now is just maintaining superficial peace.
However, raising an army is not an easy task.
Take herself for example, if it weren't for her space, the court's income over the years might not have been enough to support it.
She was very curious about how the Pingding Marquis' Mansion supported these new recruits.
