Qi Yun's face suddenly became embarrassed when she heard her husband's question.
"This! Husband, to be honest, you are making things difficult for me.
How do you want me to answer such a question? "
Seeing Qi Yun's embarrassed look, Young Master Liu smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Madam, forget it, forget it, you are right, this question is indeed a bit difficult for you.
After all, on this issue, even I don’t know what to choose as a husband. "
Hearing her husband's considerate words, Qi Yun breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Young Master Liu and nodded vigorously.
"Yeah, yeah, thank you for your understanding, husband."
"Yun'er, if I choose Yu Gong as my husband, do you think Chengfeng will blame me?"
"Uh! Husband, this, this is hard to say, it all depends on what Chengfeng is thinking.
If Chengfeng could understand your difficulties, husband, then he would definitely not blame you.
Otherwise, there will be another result. "
Young Master Liu took a long puff of dry cigarette, squinted his eyes slightly and remained silent for a long time. He looked at Qi Yun with a complicated expression and nodded gently.
"Madam, you are right, everything depends on what this boy Chengfeng thinks.
I hope this child will not put me in a dilemma as a husband. "
"Well, I hope so."
"Yun'er, come here with your ears."
"Hey, here we come."
Qi Yun came to the front of Young Master Liu with light steps, stood up on her lotus feet and approached him.
Young Master Liu lowered his head slightly and whispered softly next to the beauty's round earlobe.
Soon.
Qi Yun looked at Young Master Liu hesitantly, biting her delicate red lips with complicated eyes.
"Husband, isn't this bad?"
Liu Mingzhi looked at Qi Yun, who had a complicated look on his face. He bent down and knocked out the ashes from the smoke pot on the soles of his feet, and sighed with a frown on his face.
"Oh, Yun'er, I don't want to do this for my husband, but I have to do this for my husband.
The matter between Chengfeng and Serena, a young couple, has always been a destabilizing factor.
Before we leave the capital together, if I don't completely resolve their affairs as husband, I really can't leave the capital with peace of mind and take you sisters to Gumo Country to visit our relatives. "
Qi Yun punched her palms several times with a tangled expression, and said with a slight frown: "Husband, I understand what you mean, and I can also understand your difficulties.
But, husband, have you ever thought about it?
Once you act like this, there will be a great possibility that... there will be... between you and Chengfeng, your father and son...
Husband, you know what the consequences may be, so I won’t say it.
Husband, do you have to act like this? "
Liu Mingzhi looked at Qi Yun's worried expression and nodded with a frown.
"Madam, as I said just now, I have to do this for my husband."
"But……"
Qi Yun looked at Young Master Liu with a worried expression, wanting to persuade him further.
However, as soon as she opened her mouth, she was directly interrupted by Mr. Liu.
"Yun'er, there is no but.
Husband, I can tell you clearly that I have never worried about what little girl Serena does secretly.
What worries my husband is that Chengfeng will make mistakes.
As the eldest prince of our Dalong, he has no secrets about all the big and small matters in the court.
If this kid made some mistakes that he shouldn't have made because of this girl Serena.
Then, the mistakes he made, for our Dalong, will be...will be..."
After listening to her husband's words, some scenes that may appear in the future suddenly appeared in Qi Yun's eyes, and her mind suddenly tightened.
"Okay, I understand."
Liu Mingzhi rolled up the dry tobacco bag and pinned it to his waist. He raised his hand and patted Qi Yun's shoulder gently a few times.
"Madam, I am doing this for my husband, not to guard against girls like Chengfeng and Serena, but to save them both.
Otherwise, if the kid Chengfeng really made that mistake.
Even if you stand up for your husband, I'm afraid it won't be able to stop everyone in the world. "
Qi Yun leaned her head on Young Master Liu's shoulder and nodded her head twice with a look of sadness.
"Yeah, I understand, I understand.
I only hope that Chengfeng can understand your painstaking efforts. "
"Hehehe, I hope so."
As soon as Liu Mingzhi finished speaking, he straightened his clothes, nodded and kissed Qi Yun's fair forehead.
"Madam, go and tell the maids to prepare the food and drinks.
The eldest brother and Baoyu should have arrived in the study, so I have to go there as well. "
Qi Yun immediately straightened up her waist and looked at Young Master Liu and nodded gently.
"Hey, I'll go right away."
Young Master Liu nodded slightly and walked out of the room with a chuckle.
"Okay, then my husband will go to the study first."
"Husband."
"Yun'er, what's wrong?"
"Husband, is it convenient to tell sister Lian'er about this?"
Young Master Liu said cheerfully: "Of course it is convenient. Not only is it convenient to tell Lian'er, Yan'er, Wanyan, Yunyao, Bizhu and the other sisters, they can also tell.
One person is short-term, many people are short-term.
You sisters, talk to each other about this matter, and after brainstorming, maybe one of you will have an idea, and you can help me come up with a better way for my husband. "
Qi Yun breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with a smile.
"Yes, yes, I understand.
Husband, I will go to the sisters first, and then we will go to the kitchen together. "
Young Master Liu looked back at Qi Yun, chuckled and waved his hand.
"No problem, you just have to figure it out."
After the couple separated, Mr. Liu went straight to the study.
When Mr. Liu came to the courtyard outside the study, he saw Song Qing, Zhou Baoyu and Liu Song sitting on the steps outside the study, eating melon seeds and chatting and laughing. With.
"Uh-huh, cough, cough, cough."
Young Master Liu coughed a few times, flapped the jade fan in his hand, and walked towards Song and Qing with a faint smile.
Song Qing, Zhou Baoyu, and Liu Song heard Young Master Liu coughing and turned their heads subconsciously.
Seeing Young Master Liu approaching, the three of them immediately stood up.
"Third brother, you are here."
"His Majesty."
"Master."
Young Master Liu stopped in front of the three of them, and happily raised his hand to beat Zhou Baoyu's chest several times.
"Baoyu, now this girl Tong'er has married this boy Chenggan.
If you call me Your Majesty, Young Master, is that too foreign? You should call me father-in-law. "
Zhou Baobao shook his body and scratched his head with a depressed expression.
"Your Majesty, to be honest, I am more accustomed to calling you Your Majesty, or Marshal.
I really can’t pronounce the title “father-in-law”! "
Mr. Liu raised his eyebrows slightly, picked up a melon seed from Zhou Baoyu's hand and threw it into his mouth. He chuckled and said: "Hehehe, you damn, you are a typical dog sitting in a sedan chair, you don't know how to lift." .
What's going on? I have wronged you, Lord Zhou, and General Zhou to call me my father-in-law. "
Listening to Young Master Liu's teasing tone, Zhou Baoyu waved his hands quickly, shaking his head like a rattle.
"No, no, I would never dare to think like this.
It is an honor for me to become your son and daughter-in-law with Your Majesty.
The main thing is that I am used to calling you Your Majesty and Commander.
Now, I always feel a little awkward when you ask me to suddenly call you my father-in-law. "
Young Master Liu spit out the melon seed shells in his mouth and shook his head angrily.
"Come on, come on, do whatever you want."
Zhou Baoyu looked happy and quickly gave him a fist.
"Thank you, Marshal."
"Hey, it's not bad. The title Marshal is more pleasant to the ears than Your Majesty."
"Willow Pine."
"Master, didn't I tell you to ask your eldest brother and Baoyu to sit in the study first? Why are you three sitting outside the door chatting?"
Hearing Young Master Liu's question, Liu Song turned around helplessly and looked at Song Qing and Zhou Baoyu.
Song and Qing felt Liu Song's gaze and looked at Young Master Liu in unison.
"Third brother, I don't blame brother Liu Song. It's brother Wei and brother Baoyu who wanted to sit outside and chat."
"Yes, yes, Marshal, this matter has nothing to do with Brother Liu Song. It was Brother Song and I who felt that the study was too stuffy, so we insisted on sitting outside and waiting."
Young Master Liu smiled lightly, waved his hand, and walked towards the study first.
"Hehehe, let's go and drink tea in the study."
"Okay, here we come."
"Okay, okay."
Liu Dashao walked to the study room at a fast pace. After sitting down at the main seat, he smiled lightly and waved to Song Qing and Zhou Baoyu.
"Brother, Baoyu, you can sit wherever you like."
"Oh, I see."
"Thank you, Marshal."
"Liu Song, watch the tea."
"I obey, little one."
Liu Song picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Young Master Liu, Song Qing, and Zhou Baoyu, then silently walked behind Young Master Liu and stopped.
"Liu Song, there are no outsiders, you can sit down too."
"Hey, thank you, Master."
Young Master Liu picked up the tea and tasted it briefly. He raised his head and looked at Song Qing and Zhou Baoyu who were drinking tea with a smile.
"Brother, Baoyu."
Song and Qing hurriedly raised their heads, and their eyes fell on Young Master Liu with surprised expressions.
"Huh? Third brother?"
"Commander?"
Young Master Liu casually placed the tea cup on the table beside him, crossed his legs and looked at the map hanging next to the bookshelf.
"Brother, Baoyu, let's stop chatting. I have come to see you because I have something serious to discuss with you."
When Zhou Baoyu and Zhou Baoyu heard Mr. Liu's solemn tone, their expressions suddenly became serious.
"Third brother, go ahead and tell me, brother, I'm listening!"
"Commander, the general is also listening!"
Young Master Liu threw away the folding fan in his hand again, stood up and walked to the huge sand table a few steps away and stopped.
"Brother, Baoyu, please help me analyze it. If I use troops against Tsarist Russia, what are our Dalong's chances of winning? How much will we lose?"
Song and Qing were suddenly stunned, and they all looked at Mr. Liu who was standing in front of the sand table with dumbfounded eyes.
"Wha...what?"
"Huh? Yes...Tsarist Russia uses troops?"
Young Master Liu picked up the bamboo pole on the sand table and waved it a few times. He looked calm and glanced back at Song Qing and Zhou Baoyu with an indifferent look.
"What's the matter? Master, can't I use troops against Tsarist Russia?"
Brothers Song Qing and Zhou Baoyu looked at each other subconsciously, then hurriedly stood up and walked towards Young Master Liu.
"Third brother."
"Commander."
"Huh? What do you two want to say?"
Song Qing stroked the tea cover in his hand and looked at Young Master Liu with a slight frown.
"Third brother, it doesn't mean that you can't use troops against Tsarist Russia.
The key is that the kid Chengfeng and the girl Serena are now married.
The two of them are married, which means that our Dalong and Tsarist Russia have become friends of Qin and Jin.
There is such a relationship between the two countries. If our dragon uses troops against Tsarist Russia.
Chengfeng's eldest nephew is sandwiched between you, the third brother, and Selina, the girl. I'm afraid he will be in a dilemma!
Besides, there is a high probability that the kid Chengfeng will not agree with your idea. "
As soon as Song Qing finished speaking, Zhou Baoyu nodded hurriedly and agreed: "Yes, yes, sir, I will second Brother Song's intention.
With the current relationship between our Dragon Kingdom and Tsarist Russia, if you, Marshal, want to use troops against Tsarist Russia, it will really be difficult to deal with it.
Of course, the relationship between countries is only secondary.
The most important issue is still the issue between the young couple, the eldest prince and the eldest princess.
If it were just a matter of using troops, it would not be a problem at all.
As long as you give the order, Commander-in-Chief, our brothers can prepare for war at any time and point our swords at the territory of Tsarist Russia.
However, His Royal Highness the First Prince and His Highness the First Princess were involved in the process.
This battle is not easy to fight.
This is not a question of winning or losing, but how to deal with the problem of the young couple, the eldest prince and the eldest princess. "
Liu Mingzhi was silent for a while, then drew a circle on the sand table with the bamboo pole in his hand.
"Brother, Baoyu, you two don't have to think about the issues between Chengfeng and Serena.
You only need to answer this young master, if I use troops against Tsarist Russia, given the current situation of our dragon, what is the chance of winning? How much loss will there be? "
Song Qing took a sip of tea with his brows slightly furrowed, and fixed his gaze on the circle drawn by Young Master Liu with a bamboo stick.
Zhou Baoyu walked to the other side of the sand table with steady steps and scanned the sand table with sharp eyes.
Song Qing casually placed the teacup in his hand on the edge of the sand table, gently pulled out the tobacco bag from his waist, and skillfully lit a pot of tobacco.
"Third brother."
"Well, brother, tell me."
"As for the use of troops against Tsarist Russia, how many troops do you plan to mobilize?"
Young Master Liu stroked the stubble on his chin with his fingers and said loudly: "Brother, ever since Uncle Zhang Kuang and Uncle Nangong Ye led two armies to attack Dashi and Tianzhu.
Now, all the soldiers and horses of the Six Guards of Beijiang, the Six Guards of New Army, the Twelve Guards of Beifu, and the Twelve Departments of Xinfu combined, still have about 550,000 troops.
Therefore, I plan to mobilize 250,000 to 300,000 elite soldiers and horses from various guards and ministries, and then mobilize 100,000 auxiliary soldiers from various large and small government soldiers.
A total of 400,000 troops were deployed against Tsarist Russia. "
"What? We need to mobilize another 400,000 troops?"
