"Nonsense!" Mu Zhengyi turned his head suddenly: "You are not yet eighteen years old, how can you go to the battlefield?" Don't you think that after studying with Master Huiming for a few days, you ......"

"Big brother!" Mu Qingyi directly interrupted Mu Zhengyi's words: "I know best what my level is. It was precisely because I knew that I thought about whether I should go to the north earlier, so that I could help my uncle, my father, and my fourth uncle. Big brother, you know, my kung fu practice is like this, it's just better than ordinary cavalry armor, it's not possible to lead a leader as a vanguard general like you, even if I continue to stay at home, after a year, my martial arts level will not be higher, and I can only protect myself on the battlefield. ”

"Tsing Yi!" Mu Zhengyi grabbed his younger brother: "You ......"

"I've thought about it," Mu Qingyi smiled faintly at Mu Zhengyi: "June 13 is my little sister's birthday, I will accompany her to celebrate her birthday and set off and go directly to Shuozhou." I want to enter the Shuobei General's Mansion and be a staff member for the fourth uncle, and before we and Rong Di have a big fight, I will hurry up and learn from a few gentlemen in the Shuobei General's Mansion. The battlefield experience of the military division is also very important, and Mr. Sun said that no matter how much you read the art of war, it is still on paper, and you can't rely on books to fight on the battlefield. That's why I wanted to go to the north early and start preparing early. I can ride and shoot, I can go out with the army, although my martial arts level can't be a fierce general like my eldest brother, but as a staff member, I have some advantages over others. I will be a good military advisor, big brother, don't worry. ”

"You ......" Mu Zhengyi's voice was a little astringent: "Have you discussed these ideas with your grandmother and mother?" ”

"Not yet." Mu Qingyi shook his head: "But I'm sure to persuade them to agree." And big brother, don't put on this expression, I decided to leave for the north early, and it wasn't because of you. It's not because you and the third uncle are in Beijing that I have to leave early, really, big brother, you believe me. I've had this idea for a long time, I'm going to be a military advisor, I'm different from you, I'm not like you, I'm going to enter the camp for training as soon as I arrive in the north, I'm going to enter the Shuobei General's Mansion to continue to study with the gentlemen, it's only good for me. ”

"Besides," Mu Qingyi looked at Mu Zhengyi's eyes, and added with a smile: "Even if it's not for sister-in-law, I don't think you should be in a hurry to go back to the north right now." If you leave, there is only one third uncle left in Beijing, and the money and food of our new army in the north have not yet arrived, is it possible that you expect General Zhengsanpin Youzhou to squat in the military department every day, mixing with those chief scribes, chasing the household department to ask for money? ”

Mu Qingyi's words made Mu Zhengyi laugh at what he said. Tsing Yi is right, although the 10,000 soldiers transferred from Jin Lingwei have already set off, and the first batch of military salaries and rations of the new army has also set off at the same time, but the follow-up money is still in the hands of the household department, and the money for repairing fortifications in the three northern states this year has only been allocated.

"Tsing Yi, thank you." After Mu Zhengyi lowered his head and was silent for a long time, he reached out and patted his younger brother's shoulder.

"Big brother, where do you start with this thank you?" Mu Qingyi smiled: "My surname is Mu, and I am also a child of the Mu family, even if I can't be an invincible Mu general on the battlefield like you, I am still a child of the Mu family, and I also have obligations that I have to bear." ”

Mu Zhengyi didn't speak again, just stood in place and looked at Mu Qingyi fixedly, while Mu Qingyi smiled at him with a relaxed expression, and then turned around and left.

Mu Zhengyi stood in place and watched his younger brother's back disappear, before turning around and walking back to his yard alone. When he came back, Gu Yilan had already prepared bath water for him, and as soon as he saw him enter the door, he immediately greeted him and stretched out his hand to help him change his clothes.

"I'll do it myself," Mu Zhengyi smiled at his wife: "You don't need to do these things, besides, I'm a military general, you still don't take care of me like this, if you are used to being taken care of at home, it will be sad to go back to the north in the future." ”

"Okay." Gu Yilan retracted her hand and smiled at Mu Zhengyi: "The clothes have been prepared for you, just hang them aside, breakfast has been delivered, I will wait for you to eat." ”

"Hmm." Mu Zhengyi smiled and nodded at his wife, turned around to bathe and change clothes. Gu Yilan smiled, turned around and went to Zhang Luo for breakfast.

After Mu Zhengyi washed, the husband and wife sat at the table together for breakfast, and before they had eaten a bite of the meal, Mu Zhengyi took the initiative to speak: "Lan'er, just now Tsing Yi told me that he wanted to wait for Hongshang's birthday before leaving for the north." ”

Gu Yilan was stunned for a moment, and immediately put down her chopsticks: "Husband, is there something wrong in the north?" ”

"Don't worry about it." Mu Zhengyi immediately patted his wife's hand comfortingly, and told Gu Yilan everything Mu Qingyi said.

"I really can't leave the capital right now, and the third uncle can't leave either," Mu Zhengyi said: "So I thought about it, it's better for Tsing Yi to go to the north earlier." He has always been smart and calm, and he went to learn some battlefield experience from the fourth uncle's military advisors earlier, and he will definitely become a good strategist in the future. ”

Gu Yilan didn't speak immediately. She is the new daughter-in-law who has only been married for three days, and she is not very clear about many things in the Mu family, as well as the situation in the north, so she has no way to express her opinion. She was silent for a long time before she said, "Grandmother and mother will be reluctant, right?" After all, the fourth brother will only turn seventeen next month. ”

"I'm used to it," Mu Zhengyi smiled at Gu Yilan easily: "What's reluctant, anyway, when you're eighteen, you're going to the north, just a year earlier." Lan'er, our children will have to be like this in the future, don't be reluctant when the time comes. ”

Gu Yilan lowered her head and replied after a moment, "I know." Don't worry, I am the daughter-in-law of the Mu family, and I can do what my grandmother, aunt, and mother can do. ”

"I know, I know you can do a good job," Mu Zhengyi held Gu Yilan's hand: "Lan'er, marry me and wronged you." ”

"What do you say?" Gu Yilan immediately pushed Mu Zhengyi: "Even Xie Shurou said that I can marry you, and it's lucky." How good the Mu family is, the elders are kind, the younger brothers and sisters are cute, in addition to our family, where else can I go to find such a good in-law in Manjing. ”

"Even Miss Xie Si said that?" Mu Zhengyi couldn't help laughing: "I can't see it, she actually looks down on our Mu family." That's good, my second brother will go back to Beijing next year to marry, you be a big matchmaker, and hire her to come in and be a concubine for you. ”

Listening to Mu Zhengyi's words, the corners of Gu Yilan's mouth couldn't help but twitch fiercely. Having a concubine with Xie Shurou...... Oh, my God! Then the two of them must not be like black-eyed chickens, and they can quarrel over any trivial matter.
