Liu Mingzhi's somewhat optimistic attitude left the Queen speechless. She sighed softly and sat on the chair aside, her mind wandering.
How could the Queen know that Liu Mingzhi would not be anxious?
But what's the use of being anxious?
The Six Guards of the New Army went out to fight as far away as the Yinshan Mountains. After all, it would take time to get back.
All you can do now is wait.
After glancing at the absent-minded Queen, Liu Mingzhi continued to sit back in his chair and read the information on the table.
Failure to take precautionary measures will not only fail to succeed, but will also involve the lives of the whole family.
He seems to be as stable as an old dog, but now the most anxious person is none other than himself.
About two hours later, there was a rapid knocking on the window outside the study.
"Master, a message from Liu Song's golden eagle."
Liu Mingzhi's eyes flashed with excitement, and he walked toward the window pretending to be calm, quietly opening a gap, and Suzaku's charming face appeared in front of Liu Mingzhi's eyes.
"Quier, thank you for your hard work. Keep investigating."
"This is what Que'er should do, I'll step back first."
Liu Mingzhi turned around and saw that the Queen had stood behind him at some point, her eyes eagerly staring at the bamboo tube in his hand.
"Look, what I said is right, what is supposed to come will eventually come."
The Queen glared at Young Master Liu angrily: "Don't be such a poor person and come and see what the news is."
Liu Mingzhi took out the letter and read it in front of the Queen. He suddenly let out a long breath, with a look of relief in his eyes.
The Queen didn't bother to hide anything from Young Master Liu, so she directly took the note from Liu Mingzhi's hand and started reading it.
'On Banshi's road, he leaves the territory of Yinshan Mountain and will reach Yingzhou within a month. '
A simple sentence, less than twenty words, completely relaxed the empress's frowning face for several days, and the excitement in her bright eyes was beyond words.
"Very good!"
The Queen exclaimed softly, waving the note and jumping up and down like an immature girl of about ten years old, without any of her previous graceful and elegant temperament.
Liu Mingzhi intuitively felt that the Queen was sincerely cheering for him. He was a little moved, but also felt a little bitter and helpless.
What he wants to do is an act of rebellion against the disapproval of the world. Are he so happy?
Sighing softly, Liu Mingzhi couldn't help but flash in his mind what he would face after entering the capital, and for a moment he felt mixed emotions.
This road is the real point of no return. Once you take action, there will be no turning back.
The Queen clutched the note and suddenly rushed towards Young Master Liu. Her jade arms naturally wrapped around Young Master Liu's neck, and her long and strong jade legs were tightly wrapped around Young Master Liu's waist. He was hanging on Young Master Liu like a koala.
Liu Mingzhi watched the empress staring at him with joy in her bright eyes, and smiled helplessly.
"Are you so excited?"
"Yeah, yeah, of course I'm excited. You don't know how long I've been looking forward to this day, one year, two years, five years, or ten years!
It has been so long that I have almost forgotten that I have politely advised you more than once. "
Liu Mingzhi stretched out his hand to support the Queen's slender and soft waist, and looked into the Queen's bright eyes with complex eyes.
"Is being an emperor really that good?"
The Queen was startled, hesitated for a while and shook her head quietly.
"It's not good at all. Wanyuan's appointment to the throne was not in accordance with the rules of etiquette, but because of a strange combination of circumstances, he had no choice but to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, just because I carry my father's last wish.
Later, he politely said more than once that he wanted to abdicate in favor of a worthy person and let Feixiong ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor. However, this child had no intention of becoming emperor at all.
Later, when Yue'er supervised the country and Wanyan listened to the government behind the curtain, he watched Yue'er sitting on the dragon chair and pointing out the country from behind the bead curtain, looking high-spirited. Wanyan did not lose the sense of loss in having the power at all, and was only relaxed and comfortable.
That's when Wanyan figured it out.
What I care about has never been the chair, let alone the mountains and rivers.
I have been working hard, and the purpose of my efforts is just to fulfill my father's last wish.
That's all.
Let’s not talk about the past.
Let me tell you quickly, without the Tiger Talisman Commander Seal, how on earth could you be so sure that you would mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops?
Do you really just rely on your golden leather order arrows and a paper order? "
Liu Mingzhi carried the queen towards the chair beside him and sat down slowly.
"Feel it! I feel that my brothers will definitely obey my orders.
The love for Paoze that has lasted for more than ten years may be the confidence I hold on to. "
The queen's cherry lips gently touched the corner of Liu Mingzhi's mouth.
"Wanyuan thinks it should be your personality charm.
At least Wanyan has been in his thirties since I was a child, and I have never met a commander like you who is so close to the soldiers.
If you are sincere to your soldiers, they will naturally follow you life and death.
Although you did not lead the expedition during the Dalong Northern Expedition, the Six Guards soldiers and horses under your command still left a great reputation on the battlefield.
It is a pity that their illustrious reputation was obtained at the expense of the lives of our Jin soldiers and Turkic cavalry.
Their military equipment is so good that they have almost no opponents of equal strength during the battle.
Wanyan, Uncle Wang, and the little fairy lamented more than once but were helpless.
Three hundred thousand cavalry, all equipped with such sophisticated equipment, I am afraid it will consume all your wealth.
The fact that you value their lives may be the fundamental reason why they are loyal to you.
It also caused them to only have eyes for you, the one-word king, instead of the court and the emperor. "
"Sigh... Since I entered the imperial court, almost all of the money I have earned has been spent on my brothers, except for supporting my family.
I can't even remember how much money it was.
In short, a lot. "
"You are so willing!"
"In exchange for heart, their parents, wives and children have put their lives in my hands, and I will naturally do my best to return them back.
They are all born and raised by my parents. I don’t want to care about others, and I am not qualified to care about them. But here, there is no distinction between high and low.
Since I have been in the military for more than ten years since I led the troops on the expedition, I have always firmly believed in the principle of strengthening the country first and strengthening the army.
When the soldiers and horses are strong, the national strength will naturally increase.
Otherwise, no matter how big the family fortune is, it will not be able to hold on.
Therefore, I have never skimped on anything in terms of military equipment to protect their property and lives.
In addition, I come from a wealthy family, so my concept of silver is actually very vague.
I will never do anything to withhold pay, and I will never allow anyone under my command to do anything to drink the blood of soldiers.
The general will use his heart and the soldiers will use his life. This is probably the case.
Alas, let's not talk about this anymore. The soldiers and horses will be able to rush back to Yingzhou in about a month.
Now everything is ready, all we need is the east wind.
It's time to prepare food and fodder and draft a message to raise troops.
These days I have been thinking about raising troops and making a statement, but I have never had a suitable charter. Fortunately, I still have a month to prepare.
Come to think of it, it shouldn't be a problem to come up with a statement that captures the larger meaning. "
The queen looked at Liu Mingzhi's slightly sad look on his eyebrows, narrowed her eyes, raised her hand and patted her tall chest.
"I'm here to help you. I'm good at this kind of euphemism. After all, I've been betrayed and I know how to write the most appropriate words."
Liu Mingzhi looked at the arrogant and arrogant look of the queen patting her chest, then raised his hand and slapped the queen's buttocks and laughed.
"You have been revolted and you are still proud."
