I give the princess a sip

After giving Qiao Mingyu a sachet that day, Sudan often sent letters saying that the princess didn't have a new sachet to wear, and both inside and outside the words meant that he wanted Gu Lian to give him another one.Qiao Mingyu was too embarrassed to bring it up, so the empathetic Sudan had no choice but to reveal it quietly for the master.

Gu Lian thought it was funny, and specially learned some female celebrities from Mei Xiang, who was ingenious and handy, and planned to show her one in person.

Fortunately, the original owner has a little background in needlework, so it is not as difficult for a beginner to learn.

That night, Gu Lian was a little restless, unable to sleep, so she got up in the middle of the night and decided to embroider a few more stitches.She lit the lamp, picked up the front thread, and slowly embroidered according to the pattern.

Embroidering this at night will cost your eyes, but once in a while it's okay.After Gu Lian finished embroidering one thread, she threaded another thread. Just as she was about to tie a knot, suddenly there was a beep in her ear, which startled her, and the needle missed the place.

Gu Lian quickly took out the needle, put the unembroidered sachet aside, and focused on checking the system messages.I saw four lines of bloody verses filling the entire screen, and the background was an illustration of a battle on the battlefield——

After defeating the enemy for many years, he took off his battle clothes and returned to enjoy his fame and fortune.Old and dead, talking and laughing drunk in the wine pool, suddenly heard the old sound outside the Great Wall.

Click on the verse to jump to the next interface, and only a paragraph of italic small characters introduces the situation in this poem in detail.

[The new expansion pack "The Xiongnu's Breach of the Covenant" is open, knights please get ready! 】

[Twenty years ago, King Zhenbei led elite soldiers to fight countless battles with the Xiongnu, and finally completely defeated the Xiongnu's iron cavalry in 20 years.The current emperor personally marched, and finally captured the Khan of the Huns alive, and made an alliance with the new leader of the Huns. The Huns promised not to invade our border within 15 years. 】

[Now, the emperor is critically ill, the crown prince has not yet been established, and the situation is mixed.The Xiongnu took the opportunity to break the contract and sent their troops southward, and now they have broken through three passes. 】

[Internal and external troubles, family and country turmoil.Knights urgently need to strengthen their own strength to resist internal and external enemies. Therefore, starting today, all skills of the sect will be released, experience for leveling up will be halved, experience for daily tasks will be doubled, and chances of triggering random tasks will be doubled. I hope that knights will start out as soon as possible and fight for the country! 】

What the hell is this?

Gu Lian's expression was serious, she immediately added Lingsu as a friend, and no matter how dark the night was, she changed into an unremarkable dress and flew out of Gu's mansion with lightness kung fu.

Lingsu, who was woken up in the middle of the night, looked helplessly at the dialog box that popped up in front of him. What is this?

Since the crossing, the system of Lingsu has disappeared. The NPC also has a system, but it is very different from the player's. The system suddenly reappeared today, and Lingsu subconsciously found something wrong, and immediately thought of his good friend Gu Lian.He quickly clicked to agree and became Gu Lian's friend.

"You find a safe place, there is something that needs to be discussed." Gu Lian's voice suddenly rang in his ears, so he couldn't be scared out of his illness.

"understood......"

Lingsu belatedly realized that the system that he had disappeared had reappeared, as if awakened by Gu Lian's actions.Lingsu clicked on the dialog box with Gu Lian and entered an address.

A quarter of an hour later, the two met at the door.

"This is my own yard, usually no one lives in it. I have set up a lot of formations, and no one can crack them." Lingsu brought Gu Lian into the door, "What do you want me to do in the middle of the night? I was tossed about by a brat today No, I'm sleepy."

Gu Lian looked around for a while, but didn't find the presence of a third person, so she nodded slightly: "I just received a notification from the system that a new expansion pack has been activated."

Lingsu's yawning posture was taken aback for a moment, and it took him a while to remember to close his wide-open mouth.

"What?! New expansion pack?!" How could he not know!

"Come in and talk."

After sitting down, Gu Lian talked about how the system mutated into a player system after his time travel, and shared the news he learned today.

"The Xiongnu broke the contract...it's troublesome..." Lingsu frowned after hearing this.

He came many years earlier than Gu Lian, and knew more about the Xiongnu and the dynasty. The reason why the emperor chose peace talks 15 years ago instead of completely destroying the Xiongnu in one go was because they had already run out of ammunition and food at that time, and if the fighting continued, the treasury would not be able to bear it at all.

Therefore, the emperor had no choice but to let the tiger go back to the mountain, and signed such a treaty that seemed useful but was actually useless.The Huns are notoriously cunning and treacherous, how could they really abide by the covenant?Before that, it was just dormant, waiting for the opportunity.

Food was scarce on the grasslands, and the Xiongnu did not have enough food every winter. In the past, they often robbed the dynasty and even slaughtered people.In the past 15 years, they have been very well-behaved, but now that the emperor is seriously ill, they immediately betrayed, which is expected.

"Against the Xiongnu, what are the chances of our army winning?" Gu Lian asked the most important question.

It doesn't matter if the Xiongnu come to fight, just spend time with them first, Huaijing will settle the matter of the throne first, and then focus on dealing with the Xiongnu.I'm afraid that the army is not the general of the Huns and will be attacked directly to the capital.Although there were many soldiers brought out by King Zhenbei, many of them have been disarmed and returned to the field these years, and many of them have been lazy in training. It is hard to say how much combat power is left.

But the reality is even worse than Gu Lian imagined.

Lingsu told Gu Lian seriously: "I think there is no chance of winning."

"How come?" Gu Lian was surprised.

"Why not?" Lingsu pointed to the four lines of the poem, "Did you see that?"

Gu Lian re-examined the verse that she hadn't paid much attention to before: The enemy took off his battle clothes for many years, and returned to enjoy his fame and fortune.Old and dead, talking and laughing drunk in the wine pool, suddenly heard the old sound outside the Great Wall.

"What are the first three sentences talking about? There is only one thing to say. The veteran who has fought for many years has long since disarmed and returned home to enjoy his old age. He spends his days drunk and dreaming among beautiful wine and beauties. He has nothing but bragging about his achievements when he was young. Don't say Let them go back to fight, and they probably lost half their lives because of the long day's travel before they reached the border."

Today's Zhenbei King is just an old man who suffers from frequent illnesses and is pampered, and the emperor deliberately lured his only son into a dude in order to prevent the Zhenbei King's lineage from growing up.Lead troops to fight?Hearing that there is going to be a war, this guy can be scared to death!

"Guixun and the military commander's family still have some children who are diligent in cultivation." Lingsu changed the subject and praised the children of the general Guixun's family, but what should be said is still to be said, "But they have never seen blood, no Having been on the battlefield, armed with force and full of ability to talk about war on paper, I am afraid that if you go to war, you will never return."

Gu Lian let out a long sigh: "Then what should we do?"

"So, only your princess can do it." Lingsu gave a pertinent answer.

Gu Lian sat up straight suddenly: "She's only in her 20s!"

"But she is very talented and talented." Lingsu shook her head.

The Tianxi Dynasty has been in peace for too long, and it has long since forgotten the taste of war.But Qiao Mingyu didn't forget it, and neither did the women's army. She had a very strong and keen sense of war, and she never gave up training her own guard army all these years.She used her own hands to organize small-scale battles, and she used all kinds of strategies superbly. She was a natural general.Although it was just a small fight before, everyone can see that as long as she goes to the battlefield, she can grow up rapidly and become a fierce general in her own right.

Seeing that Gu Lian was a little impatient, Lingsu quickly added: "But you don't have to worry too much. It is impossible to send her there at this stage. After all, the third prince still needs her help in vying for the throne. Not surprisingly, the news came Afterwards, we will first find some generals who are still capable to preside over the overall situation, and Qiao Mingyu will not go out until the matter in Huaijing is resolved."

What is the difference between going early and going late?Gu Lian pursed her thin lips tightly, this is really a disaster.

"I won't tell you anymore." Lingsu got up and walked out, "I have to go back and tell His Highness about this, and say that I calculated it by watching the stars at night."

Gu Lian couldn't help scolding: "Liar!"

Lingsu didn't bother with her, he just thought that Gu Lian was a resentful woman, and he just made room for it.

The two headed back to their own home, quietly erasing all traces, as if they had never met before.

Gu Lian was doomed to sleepless nights, and early the next morning, she wrote a letter herself, asking Zhu Xiang to send it to the Princess Mansion.

It was imminent to join the women's army, and she had to join so that Qiao Mingyu could go to the frontier together when Qiao Mingyu set off.Asking her to wait in Huaijing is absolutely impossible.

"Brother guard, this is a letter that my lady wants to send to the princess, I hope it will be convenient for you." Zhuxiang took out a letter, but did not intend to hand it over to the guard.

Naturally, the guards did not dare to neglect her, and directly invited her in: "Miss Zhuxiang, you are welcome, the princess is in the main courtyard, you just go and find it."

Zhu Xiang thanked the guards and walked towards the main courtyard.

He ran into Sudan head-on.

"Why did you come into the mansion today?" Su Dan was very surprised. Usually, Zhuxiang handed the letter to the guards and left. Could it be that something important happened today?

Zhu Xiang shook her head: "I don't even know about this servant, it was ordered by the young lady. Is the princess in the main courtyard?"

"Here, I'll take you there."

Zhu Xiang followed Sudan into the study in the main courtyard, and seeing Qiao Mingyu holding a secret letter, her eyes were full of solemnity.

"Princess, Miss Zhuxiang is here to deliver a letter for Miss Gu." Sudan called out, took the letter and put it in front of Qiao Mingyu.

"A Lian?" Speaking of Gu Lian, Qiao Mingyu's eyebrows stretched a little, but his face was still stern, "But someone bullied Ah Lian?"

"Miss is very nice, no one would dare to bully her." Zhuxiang joked.

Since his wife was grounded, her young lady has lived like a fish in water in Gu's mansion, and no one dares to bully her without eyes.

Qiao Mingyu opened the letter, opened his mouth while reading it, and was about to answer, when suddenly, he was taken aback.

Ah Lian wants to join the women's army?Why?

Thinking of the secret letter he saw today, Qiao Mingyu's mood became gloomy. There must be a relationship between the two!
