"Can you be sure you're telling the truth?"

Gu Xiqian was stunned for a long time, as if she was digesting Gu Hui's words. Repeating it in my mind one sentence at a time, as if confirming the truth of the sentence.

"Of course I can assure you, how could I lie to you about such a thing? I know it's unacceptable, but it's just the way it is. Mo Xuanyin is unwilling to help me, I have to accept it! ”

Gu Hui felt a little ironic, he had such great expectations, thinking that Yunnan would come to the rescue. But he never expected that the national crisis was at the head, but he was isolated and helpless.

In fact, if he hadn't been forced to be helpless, he wouldn't be willing to tell Gu Xiqian these words. He knew it was cruel, but he felt he had to say something. Putting everything on the table is like stripping a person naked for others to see, real and shameful.

"I see, I've been on the road for a long time. I'm a little tired now, let me take a break, and I'll go back and talk to you about what to do next! ”

Gu Xiqian seemed to have been drained of her soul, without any spirit. Say something slowly, trying to calm down. She was so distracted now that she didn't have the heart to think about anything else.

Gu Hui can understand Gu Xiqian's current mood, what do you say, settle down and leave Gu Xiqian.

"Don't be too upset, Mo Xuanyin must have his reasons for doing this. Although from our point of view, it is indeed excessive. But you should also understand him somewhat, as the emperor of Yunnan, he has a lot of things to consider. ”

Luoquan couldn't bear it, Gu Hui's words just now were undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for Gu Xiqian. She must have said to Mo Xuanyin before, hoping that he would be able to help the South Vietnamese Kingdom, but now that she has become like this, she will definitely not accept it if it is anyone.

"You don't have to explain him, I don't know what kind of person he is. I kept promising that I would help the South Vietnamese country, but I did one thing on the surface and one thing behind the scenes. He did some superficial work in South Vietnam, but instead reserved military strength in Yunnan, ready to fight at any time. It's ironic that I still believe in him so much. ”

Gu Xiqian shook her head, obviously unable to listen to what Luoquan said. She has now decided that Mo Xuanyin will not save her when she sees death, and she has betrayed her trust.

"Maybe he took into account that after Shen Mengxian dealt with Nanyue, the next one to deal with was Yunnan, so he prepared in advance, so as not to be at a loss at that time."

Luoquan felt very distressed, the facts were here, and he couldn't even find a good reason to excuse Mo Xuanyin. The most important thing is that if she can explain Gu Xiqian, she will definitely feel better.

"Ready? Isn't this another meaning, Yunnan has spare strength, but it will definitely not send troops to save South Vietnam. Mo Xuanyin thought he was doing the right thing, but he was actually extremely stupid. Why didn't he think about how much the strength of Lanling Kingdom would increase if Nanyue Kingdom was taken by Shen Mengxian, and what would he do to fight him with one Yunnan? ”

The corners of Gu Xiqian's mouth raised a sarcastic arc, feeling very ridiculous. No matter what excuse he made for Mo Xuanyin, it was a fact that he obviously had the strength, but he chose not to save him.

Luoquan is completely out of words, and he can't find anything else. Just sat quietly like that, accompanying Gu Xiqian.

"I'll be fine, you don't have to be so nervous. There are so many things to do that I can't possibly fall. You also go and rest, after such a long journey. After I rested, I would go to Gu Hui to discuss the next things. ”

Gu Xiqian felt that the two of them looked a little embarrassed, so she asked Luoquan to rest. She is now suitable for being alone, and she has figured it out on her own, and everything is easy to do.

Luoquan walked out according to what Gu Xiqian said. While walking, I turned back uneasily, and walked for a long time in just a few steps.

"How are you feeling, have you rested?"

Gu Xiqian quickly cheered up, and Gu Hui was a little surprised to see her. I can't help but wonder if Gu Xiqian has recovered?

"I didn't have anything to do in the beginning, I just felt a little tired! Now that we have fully recovered, we still have to see what we should do next to keep the South Vietnamese Kingdom! ”

Gu Xiqian smiled and shook her head. She's not paper-mâché, how can she be so fragile. At this critical time, you have to race against time, how dare you dwell on it for too long?

Gu Hui was a little stunned for a while, looking at Gu Xiqian. Gu Xiqian's attitude moved him very much. Only then did Gu Hui realize that he was wrong from the beginning. It's all because of his selfishness and narrow-mindedness, imagining everyone as a bad person, and not wanting to trust others, so he will kill himself.

He had always wanted to bring down Gu Xiqian, and it was only at this moment that he realized that everything Gu Xiqian did was just for the sake of Nanyue. Instead of the so-called status rights, if Gu Xiqian really cared about these things, there would be nothing for him at all.

"I'm sorry, I was ignorant before, and I did a lot of bad things to you, I hope you can forgive me! I've always felt that getting rid of you will make my position more secure. Now it seems that I am wrong, without you, I would be even more difficult! ”

Gu Hui did not respond to Gu Xiqian's words, but gave Gu Xiqian a deep bow. opened his mouth to apologize to Gu Xiqian, for what he did before, for his previous ignorance.

"You said it yourself, you didn't know anything before. What do I have to blame, fortunately, there are no major losses. As long as we work together this time to defeat Shen Mengxian, everything will be calm again. I believe that after you have experienced these things, your mind will become much more mature, and you will be able to be more secure when you run the country in the future. ”

Gu Hui's actions made Gu Xiqian feel very gratified, and for Gu Hui, her feelings were complicated. From sympathy and concern at the beginning, to Gu Hui's actions later, she was very disappointed and wary. She didn't expect that Gu Hui would mature and sensible so quickly.

"Don't worry, I will. With this lesson, I should pay more attention to the people in remote areas in the future. Strive to be people-oriented, and do everything for the sake of the people. ”

Gu Hui nodded, the root cause of this war was precisely because he didn't care enough about the people, so it caused a bitter fruit. With this lesson, of course, it will be corrected in the future. Even if he is the emperor, even a hundred civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, he only accounts for a very small number of people in a country.

Whether a country is strong or not is most importantly reflected in the people. If the common people can live and work in peace and contentment, and eat and drink without worry, it can prove that the emperor and officials have contributed to them.

"It seems that you have matured a lot, and now we are very passive. Therefore, there must be a new breakthrough in order to catch Shen Mengxian off guard. ”

Gu Xiqian's eyes were full of satisfaction when she looked at Gu Hui, Gu Hui became more and more qualified as a monarch. The blueprint for the future is very good, but it must be done now.

"If you have any suggestions, you can just say them. Now I have nothing to do, and I have to rely on you more. You can arrange for me to do anything, and I'll do my best. ”

Gu Hui listened to what Gu Xiqian said, and guessed that Gu Xiqian must have an idea. couldn't help but open his mouth and hand over more sovereignty to Gu Xiqian.

"It's like this, we're at a complete disadvantage right now. Not to mention in Shen Mengxian's mind, maybe the reason why he didn't move for the time being was to make us even more panicked. The more this time, the more he can't succeed. We can research new weapons, and we can also seize the time to recruit troops and strengthen our military power! ”

Gu Xiqian didn't have any worries, and slowly said what she had been thinking about for a long time. Gu Xiqian knows Shen Mengxian very well, this person is proud and arrogant in his heart, and he always thinks that everyone else is in his bag.

This time she had to teach him a lesson, and even if he swallowed him, you had to let him suffer the consequences.

"I agree with what you said, the existing weapons are not very lethal at all, not to mention those of Lanling Kingdom. From the very beginning, our biggest disadvantage was that we could not match the opponent in terms of the number of soldiers. I will arrange these two points as soon as possible and strive to complete them as soon as possible. ”

Gu Xiqian simply said what Gu Hui wanted, Nanyue and Lanling were on the battlefield, whether it was the number of people on both sides or the weapons in their hands, Nanyue was not enough to see at all.

"Not only that, but don't forget, at the beginning, the Manchu Dynasty was civil and military, and there was not even a person who could be the boss. Don't you think it's too pitiful! Since there is no one in the hand who can be used, we will solicit it from all over the country. You can't go through a rigorous investigation and seek useful talents like last time! ”

In addition to these two points, Gu Xiqian couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when she thought of the things Gu Hui mentioned in the letter. When did the military attache above the court become so useless. At a critical time, there is not even a person who can take it, does this seem like a normal country?

"What you're saying is that I've been worrying about this too. Although he barely picked out two people nearby, they were obviously much weaker in all aspects. Now that you've arranged it, you have to do a good screening. In addition, since these people in the court are useless, it's time for a change of blood. Raise soldiers for a thousand days, use soldiers for a while, since you can't do it, don't raise it! ”

Speaking of this, Gu Hui felt very ashamed. As an emperor, he doesn't even have a useless coach under his hands. On top of the court, there are so many military attachés, and all of them are neatly dressed in black gauze hats.

"So, you already had this idea. Why not do it sooner? ”

Gu Xiqian looked at Gu Hui suspiciously, and it was obvious from his words that Gu Hui had long seen that these people were not pleasing to the eye, and wanted to change them. It's just that for so long, why is there no action?

"It's not that I don't want to do it, it's just that I don't have the skills. There are too many things during this time, and if you deal with them at this time, I am afraid that it will disturb the morale of the army and the court, so I can only put it on hold. ”
