Early in the morning, Qingyan got up and quickly went to check on the twins. The two children were dressed in pink and blue riding outfits, sitting in front of the bronze mirror with a dashing air. Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen had her hair braided into a single plait, and Yiken'e simply put a melon-shaped hat on her head. She also specially found a hat for Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen. The only difference between the two siblings was the color of their clothes.
"Mother, is it alright for us to dress like this?" Yiken'e saw Qingyan coming over and quickly went up to ask.
If Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen were to change into a princess's outfit, it would be difficult for him to walk on the boat. Therefore, he brought extra of his own everyday clothes, and only brought a few sets of princess's outfits with him.
"Okay!" Qingyan smiled and led the two children out of the room.
Inside the ship's corridor, there were guards every three steps and sentries every five steps. This entire floor was where the decision-making organs were located. Apart from Yinti and Yinzhen's personal guards, the rest of the guards surrounding this place were all from the New Army.
Both Eshuo and Saito were skilled warriors. They planned to hand over the battle plans to the ships at the front, allowing the soldiers trained in the navy to begin their first real battle. Following Kangxi's custom, they only provided a general direction.
At this moment, all the soldiers received the decision of Yinti and Yinzhen to attack and began to make detailed battle plans.
"Little darlings, how could this be..." Yinzhen looked closely and found that the twins were wearing the same clothes. "Why are you two dressed as men?"
Yinzhen noticed that the twins looked quite alike, and after changing into men's clothing, Hutulifengsheng Zhalafen resembled Yiken'e somewhat.
“Father, it’s easier for us to move around like this.” Yiken’e didn’t want Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen’s reputation to be falsely accused, so he used this simplest method to protect his sister.
Yinzhen smiled, thinking that Yiken'e had grown up and was now able to take care of his younger sister.
"Good, Yiken'e did a good job!" Yinti patted Hutulifengsheng Zhalafen's melon-shaped hat.
puff!
Yinzhen spat out his tea, and Yinti actually admitted his mistake.
"Brother, that's Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen, can't you tell the difference?" Yinzhen looked at Yiken'e, who resembled him, while Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen looked somewhat like Qingyan!
Yinti was stunned for a moment. How could that be?
"Fourth brother, are you sure you're not mistaken? She looks like Yiken'e to me!" Yinti said, quickly turning his head to look at Yingenjueluo Shi.
“I think so too,” Yin Genjue Luo Shi nodded. “As time goes by, the twins look even more alike.”
Qingyan glanced at her suspiciously. She had changed into the same clothes and didn't look much different. Hutuli Fengsheng Zhalafen's face was more delicate and less hard-looking than Yiken'e's.
“The two little ones are doing well. Hutulifengshengzhalafen, if you meet strangers, just say you are Yiken’e!” If the two children are together, Yiken’e will definitely hide Hutulifengshengzhalafen by his side.
"Ah Hun, this is a good idea," Qingyan agreed.
Saito and Eshuo looked at the two children, their eyebrows and eyes slowly opening. If Hutulifengshengzhalafen went outside dressed as a man, Yiken'e would definitely have no way to express his suffering.
“Back then, your mother often wore clothes made by Orsonak when she went out for walks.” Saito looked at Qingyan, who was pouting slightly, with a hint of a smile on his face.
During that time, Fei Yanggu had a lot of headaches. Qing Yan was causing trouble outside, and E Shuo was still taking the blame.
"Hmph, with a sister like that, you should be prepared to take the blame!" E Shuo instructed Yi Ken'e.
Yiken was stunned, looking at Eshuo with a bewildered expression, realizing that his future was bleak.
“They said they wouldn’t cause any major trouble, but they’d keep getting into minor problems,” E Shuo said, glancing at Qing Yan.
During that period, E Shuo had a lot of headaches. Some people thought that E Shuo was a playboy who was preparing to go into business.
Later, he followed Saito to the new army, and everyone there thought that Eshuo had reformed.
"Back then, when I joined the new army, many people asked me, 'Won't you ruin Linglong Pavilion and Yuelai Inn?'" E Shuo shook his head helplessly.
Qingyan was delighted. During that period, in order to facilitate doing business, Qingyan used Eshuo's name. Moreover, many people said that Eshuo's height was somewhat uncertain.
"Hutulifengsheng Zhalafen, from now on, when you dress up as Yiken'e, pay attention to his height." Qingyan smiled; the problem from before definitely couldn't be solved again.
Ha ha!
Inside the flower hall, everyone burst into laughter.
"Brother, you still remember? When I went to school, those people were still saying that if there was a chance to make money, don't forget them!" E Shuo felt uncomfortable all over. Those people eventually started some businesses under the guidance of Qingyan.
"Hmph, I helped too. Didn't those people who are on good terms with you also start a business?" Qingyan retorted, unconvinced.
"Alright, you two stop bickering. There are some waves on the sea. For the next few days, neither of you should go to the ships at the front. Hand over all authority to the commanders at the front." Saito and Eshuo had already brought out the commanders of the new army, so no matter how difficult the problem was, as long as they gave them a hint, those people could handle it well.
Yinti and Yinzhen were stunned. They knew they couldn't refuse.
“I don’t think that will work. What if something goes wrong if we don’t get to the past?” Yinti was worried about the ship. The entire Qing Dynasty only had these two ships. If one of them was destroyed, it would take at least half a year before the new ship could be put into service.
"No, the ships are in excellent condition. As long as they aren't hit by shells, they should be fine. You can't handle everything yourself. Besides, if you interfere too much, it will affect the generals' thinking." Saito and Eshuo were experienced; the generals' ideas and combat strategies were all different.
They were all the same; a general framework was handed over to the generals, each with their own strategic experience, so that the enemy could not figure out the pattern.
Yinti also understood that Kangxi had specifically instructed him that he must unconditionally trust the generals.
"Fourth brother, what do you think?" Yinti asked.
“I think it’s acceptable. We must take responsibility for our failures. If the generals gain experience and win the battle, they must be rewarded. Responsibility and reward are equal!” Yinzhen agreed, making the soldiers understand that this nearsightedness gave them an opportunity to make the most of their time.
Yinti fell silent. What Yinzhen said was the key point; the credit and responsibility both needed to be borne by the two of them.
