"Your Highness seems to have solved everything." Outside the military camp, four handsome young men sat on horses, listening to the loud noises coming from the military camp, their expressions were full of admiration.

"As expected of the eldest princess of my family who is unparalleled in beauty, the most beloved in the country, and loved by everyone." Hong Yu praised sincerely, "A hundred thousand soldiers and horses were conquered so easily, leaving our heroes useless. "

Qi Ling said: "The Royal Forest Army also played a role."

"The main thing is that my Highness is very powerful." Hong Yu insisted on this point, "Didn't you hear the sound of worship coming from the military camp? It was impassioned and inspiring, and it was not a forced and helpless tone at all."

Chu Lingchuan spoke warmly: "Such a result was expected."

As soon as he finished speaking, three pairs of eyes turned to his face.

Qi Ling asked: "Why is Mr. Chu so sure?"

Chu Lingchuan said: "There are three reasons."

"Want to hear the details."

"First, although Ling Ancheng has been in charge of the Silver Armor Army for more than 20 years, except for his contribution to the civil strife in Xiqi, there have been few wars between countries in these years. Ling Ancheng has not been to the battlefield in the past 20 years. The general wants to consolidate Military morale, and keeping soldiers docile, depends on military merit and political achievements, not profits," Chu Lingchuan said, "Besides, Ling Ancheng cannot give all the soldiers the benefits they want. He can only win over the most respected generals and confidants and let them. If His Highness uses the highest-ranking generals to establish his power, it will not be difficult to shake the morale of the army. "

Zhong Jin nodded: "That makes sense."

"Secondly, Ling Ancheng promoted his confidants and reused Ying Dongli, who was related to the Ling family by marriage. The four generals at the front, left, and right all put their own family's interests first. Such generals are not popular. His Highness only needs to know the interests. Arousing the soldiers in the army to protect their families and the country will naturally easily break their loyalty to Ling Ancheng." Chu Lingchuan said calmly, "Besides, because of their age, the Silver Armored Army Lieutenant Generals need a new batch of blood every two years. The Silver Armor Army has been in Ling Ancheng's hands for more than twenty years, which does not mean that the Silver Armor Army soldiers have been with him for that long. "

Even a few years ago, a group of young people entered the Silver Armored Army. Those young soldiers were only passionate about being loyal to the emperor and protecting their family and country. How could they have so much undying loyalty to Ling Ancheng?

A general who has never been on the battlefield is actually no different from a coach in their minds. He just manages the army according to the emperor's will and is responsible for the daily routine drills of the army.

The three of them nodded slowly, thoughtfully.

The mentality of the army guarding the emperor's feet and the army constantly guarding the border are indeed different.

"Third, and the most important point." Chu Lingchuan smiled faintly, "Generals in the army are convinced by their ability. Your Highness has the holy edict, the second is the military talisman, the third is the ability, and the fourth is the courage... Conquering the Silver Armored Army is not Is it a normal thing?”

Indeed.

The three of them nodded.

"So," Hong Yu frowned, "we came here in a hurry just to witness His Highness's majesty and domineering power?"

"No." Chu Lingchuan shook his head slowly, "Everything is possible, we are just to prevent it."

"But it seems that the important place of the military camp is not accessible to people like us." Zhong Zhongjin raised his head and looked at the entrance of the military camp. There are many sentries and tight guards. It is absolutely impossible for people to come and go at will. "Even if you want to go in and see for yourself, Looking at His Highness’s domineering and heroic appearance, it seems to be a bit difficult.”

Chu Lingchuan turned the horse's head leisurely: "We are just serving the king, and the servant should abide by the duty of serving the king, and we cannot easily break the rules."

Qi Ling and Shen Chongjin looked at each other. Is it the duty of a servant to serve the king?

Who just said that the carriage was too slow and took the initiative to have a faster horse prepared for them? Moreover, in order not to attract attention, they were specially asked to arrive in the outer city in a carriage first, away from the long streets of the main city where people came and went, and then they were asked to change to fast horses.

"Master Chu is such a good man." Hong Yu drove his horse forward, keeping pace with Chu Lingchuan, "I think so too."

Chu Lingchuan turned to look at him: "Hongyu, I remember hearing you say before that your father is good at astrology, divination, and predicting the future."

ah?

Hong Yu was confused: "Did I say that?"

"I said it." Chu Lingchuan looked extremely calm, "What I want to know is, do you have the ability to inherit your father's skills?"

Hong Yu held the reins with both hands and looked forward, thinking about what to say: "My qualifications are relatively dull. In my father's words, even when I was born, I don't know if my head was squeezed. How can I be so stupid? It's so stupid." It’s rotten wood that cannot be carved, so Mr. Chu’s question... really makes me ashamed.”

Chu Lingchuan understood and nodded gracefully: "I'm sorry."

"It doesn't matter." Mr. Hongyu said, "Actually, I admire Mr. Chu very much. He can travel all over the world for Uncle Chu at a young age and manage the business in an orderly manner. He is really a natural genius, which makes people enviable and admire."

Chu Lingchuan pondered for a moment: "How long have you been in the eldest princess's mansion?"

Hong Yu said: "It didn't take long."

"You are the youngest among the servants." Chu Lingchuan said, "You are born stupid and can't be carved from rotten wood. Your Majesty actually dared to let you come all the way to Xiqi alone and be bought by the violent and bloodthirsty princess. When you join the palace as a servant, are you worried that you won't die quickly enough?"
