After Luo Lan put down the fox fur cloak in his hand, he walked to the front of the hall with a gloomy brow, paced with his hands behind his back, thinking seriously.
After a while, she raised her beautiful eyes and said sternly:
"Call all the lieutenants. We must discuss this matter carefully and listen to everyone's opinions."
Although Daning State has made good preparations to use defense as offense, we still need to discuss how to defend.
After a while, all the deputy generals came to Luo Lan. After seeing everyone standing still, Luo Lan glanced at them and said slowly with a serious expression:
"Brothers, the New Year is tomorrow. I'm sure these Chu people won't let us celebrate the New Year smoothly. They are likely to attack our military camp in the next few days. Before the prince wakes up, we must be prepared to fight the enemy. Now, everyone, tell me, how are we going to fight them?"
Xiao Lingzi was the first to speak:
"Let's tie the two Chu captives to the beacon tower in the military camp to intimidate the Chu people..."
The little twins also said:
"I'll issue an order to the barracks later: no one is allowed to drink alcohol during the New Year holidays. We must be ready to fight the enemy at any time..."
"Yes, we brothers will take turns guarding the area day and night, ready to repel the Chu people at any time..."
“…”
Listening to everyone's discussions, Luo Lan's brows were furrowed. Defending a city is more difficult than attacking it, because you have no idea when the enemy will come, and you have to be extremely alert at all times.
Seeing that everyone had said almost all the suggestions, she nodded slowly.
"Everyone's words make sense. I'll come up with a strategy to deal with the enemy based on your suggestions..."
Before she could finish her words, Ah Hong came hurriedly to report.
"Princess, there is someone outside who wants to see you."
She raised her eyebrows and asked in a deep voice:
"Who?"
Ah Hong shook her head and replied:
"The other party did not reveal her name, only saying that she was from Chu. She also said that the princess must see her because she had something important to tell her."
Hearing this, Xiao Lingzi said coldly:
"The people of Chu are coming to see the princess at this time. They must have no good intentions. Princess, just go back."
Ah Hou also followed and echoed,
"Brother Ling is right. The person who came last time inexplicably sent me eight words. This time, who knows what tricks the Chu people are up to. Princess, you'd better be careful."
Luo Lan felt that what they said made some sense. She thought for a while and waved her hand:
"Go back now. No one is welcome. I am busy now."
After receiving the order, Ah Hong walked towards the entrance of the military camp.
At this time, Meng Yue was wearing a conical hat and a veil on her face, and was waiting at the gate of the military camp with her maid Xiao Hongjing.
She didn't know whether the Princess Yu she was going to meet was the person she was looking for, so she felt a little uneasy and looked anxiously into the military camp from time to time.
After a while, Ah Hong rode to the gate of the military camp. She did not dismount, but replied directly from the horseback:
"The princess is busy, you guys should go back."
Hearing this, Meng Yue became anxious and hurriedly explained:
"Miss, please tell Princess Yu that I am an old friend of hers and ask her to come and see me. If she doesn't, I won't leave."
Ah Hong looked her up and down. Although she couldn't see her face clearly through the black veil, she could sense the persistence in her words. She frowned and said again:
"It's useless for you to wait here. You are from the Chu State. If you continue to refuse to leave the gate of the Daning State military camp, we will arrest you as enemy spies. Then you will not be able to leave even if you want to..."
Hearing Ah Hong say this, Meng Yue's brows were tightly twisted into a knot. She rolled her eyes slightly, then pulled out a dagger from her sleeve and ran straight towards the soldier guarding the door.
"careful……"
As Ah Hong shouted this, several soldiers stepped forward and restrained Meng Yue and Xiao Hong...
When Ah Hong came to Luo Lan again and told him what happened at the gate of the military camp, Luo Lan's face suddenly turned dark.
Since this woman wanted to see her so urgently and at all costs, she really wanted to know what she wanted to do.
So she waved to everyone,
"All of you go down and invite her in..."
Seeing this, Ayu said worriedly:
"Princess, this person's identity is unknown and may harm you. We should protect you here."
Luo Lan raised his eyebrows and smiled softly:
"It's okay, Ah Hong will stay here. You guys go down and prepare. Tomorrow is a very critical day."
Seeing that she was determined to do so, everyone stood up, saluted, and retreated.
After a while, Meng Yue and Xiao Hong were brought to Luo Lan by several guards. In order to prevent her from doing anything to Luo Lan, A Hong did not order anyone to untie the ropes tied around them.
When Meng Yue saw Luo Lan's familiar face through the veil, she was so shocked that she burst into tears.
That face was exactly the same as Sina's. She was sure that this was her daughter Luo Lan.
So, she couldn't help but call out softly, "Are you Luo Lan?"
As soon as she said this, Ah Hong suddenly shouted loudly:
"How dare you call out the princess's name so casually?"
Meng Yue completely ignored Ah Hong's words and murmured again,
"So you really are Luo Lan. I didn't expect you to keep using this name..."
Her words made Luo Lan stunned for a moment. Judging from her tone, she seemed to be very familiar with him.
With a cold expression, she waved her hand at Ah Hong and said, "Take off her veil."
After Ah Hong nodded, she stepped forward and pulled off the veil on Meng Yue's head. Meng Yue's face, which was a little pale but gentle as jade, appeared in front of Luo Lan in full view.
