Sima Yi approached the inner room of the Imperial Study Room, and there was still a scent of wine in the room, mixed with another faint sweet smell.

Guo Chan stood in front of the window and was staring at the thing in her hand. Sima Yi knew that it was the topographic map of Xuzhou.

Hearing the voice, Guo Chan turned her head and said, "Cousin, have we discussed everything?"

Sima Yi nodded, but said: "I forgot to ask you earlier, why do you smell of alcohol during the day?"

Guo Chan was stunned, although she deliberately took a bath, but the time was short, and she didn't cover the smell of alcohol after all.

Seeing that she was silent, Sima Yi became even more suspicious. Guo Chan's temperament seemed calm and cautious, but deep down she was more stubborn and presumptuous than anyone else. However, since Guo Zhao passed away, she became less and less presumptuous, and even more so. For a long time, he was calmer than himself.Today when she entered the palace, her complexion was brilliantly red, especially the smell of wine on her body was very intoxicating.

Guo Chan smiled and sighed: "Cousin, don't you know that today is my sister-in-law's big day, so I drank a few more glasses and never thought of letting you be called into the palace."

Sima Yi glanced at Guo Chan, and said slowly: "How could I forget, just now Ling Qi entered the palace in wedding clothes, I ordered him to go to Xuzhou, I think I feel a little sorry for your righteous sister."

Guo Chan's eyes flickered, she walked up to Sima Yi, handed him the topographic map, and said, "If you want to be worthy of my sister-in-law, you can send me to Xuzhou."

Sima Yi was silent, he knew that Guo Chan wanted to go, but the battlefield was cruel, he would never agree to Guo Chan's going.What's more, Guo Chan is quite prestigious in the Imperial Forest Army and Shence Army now, if he leads another army...

Guo Chan saw everything in her eyes, and said helplessly, "I know, I don't want to stay with a group of stinky men all day."

Guo Chan teased Sima Yi with a disgusted look on his face, he shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that if something happens to you on the battlefield, wouldn't it mean that you will lose you as a competent general forever?"

This remark had a double meaning, Guo Chan nodded and said, "I understand."

Sima Yi unfolded the topographical map, which marked the points that could be used to defeat the enemy and the places that needed to be strengthened on the topography of Xuzhou. After looking at it, he admired: "Ah-chan, your thoughtfulness is really unmatched. Think about it Last time you went to Xuzhou, you gained a lot."

Guo Chan thought that the last time she was on the way back from Xuzhou, she was assassinated, and after being injured, she went to Tianling Temple and was rescued by Ren Suyi.

Sima Yi noticed Guo Chan's trance, and his eyes deepened.The people who had been following Guo Chan had reported earlier that she had been in a restaurant today, but after Sima Ting went there, she stayed for a while and then left.Sima Yi was very clear about Sima Ting's temperament, but he just wondered how the two who had never met before had a connection.Especially after she entered the palace, she couldn't hide the smell of alcohol no matter how hard she tried, so she seemed to use alcohol to drown her sorrows.

"A-chan?"

Guo Chan regained her senses, shook her head, and said, "It's just that I learned about these things by accident. Cousin can send someone to deliver the things to General Jin, hoping to help."

Sima Yi nodded, and said: "Okay, I'll send someone to send it then. If he knows that you painted it with his nature, he will be very impressed."

Jin Lu was the candidate chosen after the two discussed. There are not many generals available in the court, and the dispersion of military power has always been a problem that has plagued Sima Yi. He is trying to take this opportunity to integrate the six armies.Then this choice made them very difficult. In the end, Jin Lu was chosen because of his outstanding ability and bravery, second because he had served Xuan Pinghou and General Ling, and he respected them very much. The last point was because he was loyal to the The imperial power, who is loyal and upright, has guarded the city not far from Luoshui City to prevent the Turks from invading.

As for Ling Qi, he was allowed to lead the rest of the troops to support Jin Lu in order to train him to be able to stand on his own in the future.

The two discussed the supply of food and grass during the war, the transportation of wounded soldiers and other issues, and Sima Yi released him after formulating a series of plans.

When Guo Chan left, Sima Yi looked at her back and suddenly said, "Ah Chan, do you think I should send Ling Qi to Xuzhou?"

Guo Chan turned around after hearing this, her eyes were calm, and she said slowly: "The imperial decree has been issued, and there is no room for change."

Sima Yi squeezed the hand hidden in the sleeve slightly, he suddenly smiled and said: "That's right, I was worrying too much."

Guo Chan immediately left and left the imperial study room. She let go of her tightly clenched fists, smiled wryly, and wondered to herself if Sima Ting had fallen for her today. Otherwise, how could Sima Yi not hesitate to ask for a candidate? Ling Qi was mentioned.

After all, it is selfishness.

She looked in the direction of the Ling Mansion outside the palace, and she seemed to be able to see the red silk with cat eyes. The ceremony should have been interrupted, and I hope that person will not blame herself.

When Ling Qi returned to the Ling Mansion, the guests had already dispersed, and they probably all knew the news of the Turkic invasion and left.

Pushing open the door of the new house, Ling Qi was stunned before walking in, Ren Suyi had already taken off the hijab and changed into a normal dress, even though it was a red dress, it was not a wedding dress after all.But Ling Qi didn't think deeply about it, she left suddenly on the day of her marriage, it must be because she thought that she would not come back, and indeed she just went back to the house and ordered to go to the barracks to count the soldiers and horses.

When Ren Suyi saw Ling Qi, she stood up in a daze, opened her lips slightly, thought for a while, and finally said: "Little General Ling, are you back?"

Ling Qi already regarded Ren Suyi as his own, he smiled and said excitedly: "The emperor has appointed me as a general of chariots and cavalry, and asked me to lead an army to Xuzhou for support."

Seeing Ren Suyi's expression was slightly startled, Ling Qi thought she felt sad because he went on an expedition just after they got married, and hurriedly comforted him: "Suyi, don't be angry, I know I'm sorry for you. Turkic people I have been enemies with my Ling family for generations, and it is my life's mission to repel the Turks, so I have to go. When I come back, I will definitely compensate you a thousand times!"

In fact, Ren Suyi's mind was distracted for a moment because of the joy in her heart. She realized that although she couldn't show sadness on her face, she could at least be cold and indifferent, but she also expressed an understandable appearance, and said: "Then I should call you General Ling, the country Big things naturally matter.”

Ren Suyi's "General Ling" made Ling Qi a little shy, but the former was thinking that if he went to Xuzhou, Luoshui City and Yangcheng would be destroyed, and the Turkic people were really menacing this time.

"Can you tell me when to leave?"

Ling Qi showed guilt, and said: "Let's go the next day, and when I come back, I will tell you and grandfather, and I will go to the barracks to count the troops and food."

Ren Suyi was not surprised, the battle is urgent, if preparations are made, they should start today.It's just that although the Ling family is a family of generals and has made a lot of contributions for generations, Ling Qi is inevitably too young.

Ren Suyi said: "It will take too long to go to Xuzhou even if we start from the capital at full speed, how can we make it in time?"

Ling Qi was surprised that Ren Suyi would ask this question, but he still replied: "This time, the emperor appointed General Jin Lu, the guard guarding Pengcheng, as the General of Hussars to command the three armies. I am the deputy general of General Jin."

Ren Suyi nodded, this is much more reasonable, thinking that Ling Qi should have come here after returning home, she said: "Old General Ling has been waiting for you, you might as well go and have a look."

Ling Qi was momentarily lost, he hadn't told Ren Suyi that he couldn't accompany her when he returned home in three days, so he hurriedly drove him away.However, as a member of the army, Ling Qi is not hypocritical, but just feels that this newlywed lady is too cold.However, Ling Qi blamed all of this on himself, after all, he might be the only husband who disappeared on the day of marriage.

After Ling Qi came out of the new house, he went to look for his grandfather. When he mentioned the matter of dispatching troops, Old General Ling just sighed: "This is the order of our Ling family. When you go, the battlefield is dangerous. Remember to take care of yourself."

Ling Qi knew the pain of sending a white-haired person to a black-haired person. His grandfather didn't want to do it again after suffering it once, so he promised: "Grandfather, don't worry, your grandson will take care of you, and you too. Su Yi is alone, please take care of her, I am afraid that I will not be here after she got married, and she will be afraid."

Hearing this, Old General Ling laughed and said, "So you feel sorry for your wife? However, Su Yi's granddaughter-in-law is considerate and a good one. This time I wronged her."

Ling Qi also knew this, felt very guilty in his heart, and said: "I understand, so I implore Grandpa to take more trouble."

Old General Ling nodded and said, "I know, you go as soon as possible! Jin Lu is brave and good at fighting, and he is loyal to the country. You can learn a lot from being his deputy this time."

Ling Qi hummed heavily.

The place where the army was stationed outside the city, when Ling Qi arrived, Guo Chan was counting the soldiers and horses. She was wearing a simple long robe, and her hair was tied behind with a ribbon, she looked heroic and beautiful.

Ling Qi knew that Guo Chan had been training soldiers, stepped forward a few steps, and said, "The princess came early."

Guo Chan didn't even look at him, and said calmly, "General Ling, it's getting late."

Ling Qi choked on a single sentence, it took him a lot of time to go back home and explain the matter.

Guo Chan hated Ling Qi in her heart, if it wasn't for him, how could Old General Ling ask the emperor to marry him.So seeing him didn't look good, but when he turned around and saw that he was wearing armor, it wasn't that glaring red, at least he felt relieved.

"Since General Ling is here, I have sent all the grain and grass to the Shence Army, so I will leave first."

"Princess, go slowly." Ling Qi cupped his fists, feeling that he had offended Guo Chan, but he didn't know why.

Guo Chan walked all the way to the gate of the camp, when someone saluted her, she nodded slightly, then turned to look at Ling Qi who was counting soldiers.

Because of the friendship she grew up with when she was young, her great wish in this life is to fulfill Guo Zhao's wish and help Sima Yi stabilize the country and consolidate the imperial power.

But now there are other thoughts in her heart. In the past, she thought she could let go, but later she realized that this would only increase the pain.Since she can't be as vain as Sima Ting, she can only find another way to fulfill herself.The Ling family's position in the court is important, and I have more weight than him, and I should not be underestimated.Only then can she be qualified to speak and protect the person she wants to protect.
