The restless night passed, and a new day began.

The sun on the horizon broke through the horizon early, and the pale light shone on the earth, not dazzling or scorching.

The Marshal of Chu Huiguo's Mansion is almost the same as what people imagined, with high walls, gold-painted plaques, and a pair of thick knockers symmetrically inlaid on both sides of the center of the wide gate. Solemn, majestic, and magnificent, all of which show its pivotal position in the screen city.

"Yesterday, there was an eight-hundred-mile rush from Shan Yang City, asking for support from the imperial court." Shen Haonan came to find Shu Qingyue early in the morning, and after he finished speaking, he added another sentence. "I asked Gonggong Li, it was an excerpt written by the marshal himself."

Shu Qingyue fell ill a few days ago, and she hasn't recovered yet, so she went to bed early last night. After thinking about it all night, Shen Haonan had to come to disturb her early in the morning.

"Asking for support? What's going on? Shu Qingyue's already pale face added a little solemnity. Since the start of the war in Shan Yang City, this is the second time her father has asked for support from the imperial court.

It shouldn't be.

In fact, regarding the dispatch of Liangchang State to Shan Yang City, Shu Qingyue felt a little strange at the beginning.

Liangchang Kingdom is adjacent to Chu Hui Kingdom, and it is not a small country. It was only because the previous monarch wantonly provoked wars for his own ambitions, labored the people and lost money, and the national strength was exhausted. If it weren't for his heirs who inherited the throne, they would have given a large number of jewels and horses to Chu Huiguo every year, and they would have been destroyed by other countries. Too busy to take care of himself, how could he suddenly send troops to Shan Yang City?

and then to the war between the two countries, Shu Qingyue had more things to figure out.

First of all, no matter where the Liangchang Kingdom got the courage to provoke a war on the border, the Liangchang Kingdom, which is not what it used to be, has only survived all these years, and even if it comes back, it will not be a problem. The front line obviously reported that the number of people attacking the city in Liangchang Kingdom was only 100,000, and the Shu family army led by her father was more than 100,000, which should be more than enough to deal with Liangchang Kingdom. Why has the war, which was expected to end in two months, been postponed again and again? Half a year has passed, and there is still a long war, but her father has repeatedly asked for support from the imperial court?

This battle is unusual, and there must be something else hidden.

Shu Qingyue faintly felt uneasy.

"I don't know the specific situation, I think the marshal must have encountered an unexpected situation in Shan Yang City that we don't know." Shen Haonan said that not only that, but what he was most worried about was still to come. "The emperor has made an order to order Ning Sichen to command the army to support."

"Ning Sichen?" Shu Qingyue was a little surprised when she heard that name.

It would have been a good thing for the imperial court to send troops, but if it was him?

"I heard that Feixue Niangniang strongly recommended it to the emperor, and after Ning Feixue entered the palace, she has always been favored by the emperor." Shen Haonan said.

Ning Feixue and Ning Sichen?

"Uncle Nan." After thinking about it, Shu Qingyue made a decision. "I'm going to Shan Yang City."

The breeze blows through the locust trees in the courtyard, making a soft rustling sound. A few yellow leaves swirled in the wind and drifted down, and a thick layer of fallen leaves had been laid on the ground.

This summer, I unconsciously slipped into the end.

Following.

Unlike Pingcheng in normal times, many people got up early in the morning. Outside the city gate, a full 100,000 soldiers and horses were assembled.

Shu Qingyue changed into men's clothes and mixed in with the soldiers.

Ning Sichen stood at the front of the team, he was gray and white in iron armor, holding a spear, majestic and majestic, but he also did not lose the style of a general.

"I don't know what the emperor thinks, even if the old marshal and the second general are not there, isn't there still General Yue, when will it be Ning Sichen's turn to be the commander. The general of the defeated army, it is ridiculous. At the back of the line, there were soldiers whispering.

"Look at his mighty appearance." Another soldier said.

"In the end, it's not about women. If he was really capable, the Pingshun Kingdom would not be destroyed lightly. In his words, he could hear the soldiers' contempt for Ning Sichen.

Shu Qingyue stood next to several soldiers, she just listened quietly and remained silent.

Let's talk about the identities of Ning Feixue and Ning Sichen, as well as the relationship between them and Chu Huiguo, the Marshal's Mansion, and the Shu Family.

Ning Sichen was originally the general of Pingshun State, and in the battle with Chu Huiguo, Pingshun State was defeated by the country, and Ning Sichen became the general of Chu Huiguo. Later, his sister Ning Feixue entered the palace as a concubine and was very favored by the emperor, and Ning Sichen was also named a general.

At that time, the general who led the troops of Chu Huiguo to invade Pingshun State was Shu Qingyue's father, the generalissimo of Chu Huiguo - Shu Shengxuan.

The Ning sisters and brothers hated the Marshal's Mansion, as well as the Shu family army under the command of Shu Shengxuan, which was understandable. If it weren't for her father and Shu Jiajun, they wouldn't have ruined their country.

War has always been cruel.

It is because of this that Shu Qingyue will have scruples about Ning Sichen.

The soldiers will not be able to see Ning Sichen well, and there is a reason for it. At the most critical moment of the war between Chu Hui and Pingshun, Ning Sichen abandoned his weapons and surrendered in order to save his life, causing the monarch of Pingshun to hang himself, and even the destruction of the entire country. His behavior is definitely a shame for the soldiers, so the soldiers of Chu Huiguo will look down on him like that.

Before this, Shu Qingyue had actually met Ning Sichen. One time was a year ago, when Chu Huiguo's army returned from attacking Pingshun Kingdom in triumph, he followed at the back of the team as a general. A month later, she went to the same teahouse with him, but she was upstairs, he was downstairs, and when she heard the commotion downstairs, she went downstairs and saw him pass through a group of mocking soldiers and go out of the teahouse.

Shu Qingyue first cared about Ning Sichen, but she saw him in the team from afar that day. At that time, the troops of Pingshun were all depressed and depressed, but he was the only one, whose clothes were ragged but not wolf, and a pair of sharp eyes could still see a sharp momentum, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like a down-and-out defeated general. and the time in the teahouse, in the face of the cynicism of the soldiers, deliberately attacked, his expression was unusually calm, not so much that he left in a hurry, it was better to say that he didn't care about the misunderstanding of others.

It's as if he is, hidden in the depths.

Shu Qingyue asked his father about the situation of that battle afterwards, and Shu Shengxuan said that Ning Sichen was an extremely difficult enemy he had encountered on the battlefield.

She believed her father's words.

As for that battle, why Ning Sichen suddenly gave up the confrontation, and whether there were other hidden secrets behind the war, there is no way to know.

But he didn't feel like the kind of person who was greedy for life and afraid of death.

Ning Sichen?

No matter what, Shu Qingyue just hopes that nothing too big will happen along the way.

"General Ning, the army is reorganized, and it's time to go." After the rectification was completed, Yue Rongfei said to Ning Sichen.

Ning Sichen looked at the army, his gaze crossed from the direction where Shu Qingyue was, a full 100,000 people, all of them were soldiers wearing the same military uniforms, and he didn't notice her. Ning Sichen jumped on the horse, "set off", he gave an order, and took the lead.

The neatly arranged soldiers followed one after another, followed by a long queue, and the dust flew everywhere they passed, and the scene was very large.

Yue Rongfei waited in place for the team behind him to come up.

"You, out of the ranks." Yue Rongfei finally saw Shu Qingyue, and he called her out of the ranks. The others continued to follow.
