As an official, what's wrong with raising a few monsters?

Chapter 165 Brother Chen, long time no see

"..."

So brave!

After hearing what Mingchen said, Xiao Xinyue couldn't help but frown.

If that young man really had such ambitions, it would make her feel a little unhappy and she would want to get rid of him...

Mingchen glanced at Xiao Xinyue, but said nothing more.

It's not that he can definitely see into people's hearts. This is just his judgment based on a simple meeting with Yun Zheng.

As to whether the other party really has such ambition and vision, we need to wait and see.

Xiao Xinyue was silent for a while.

suddenly,
"Ha~"

The sky was dotted with stars. The princess' eyes were particularly bright in the darkness. A clear voice rang in Bai Yu's ears: "If he can do it, then let him do it."

“I just want the present moment!”

"Leave it to future generations to judge right and wrong, merits and demerits!"

Therefore, some of the qualities of a leader are truly something that others cannot possess.

Xiao Xinyue seemed to have thought of something and looked at Mingchen intently: "Mingchen, what about you? What do you want?"

This person is like a cloud floating in the sky.

Even though this person is right next to her, Xiao Xinyue still can't figure out what he is thinking.

He truly has the ability to make a country prosperous, and also the ability to plunge a country into purgatory.

"I?"

Is it for the common people? Is it for fame and fortune? Or... just because it's fun?
The bird landed in Mingchen's hands. He gently stroked the bird's head and said to Xiao Xinyue with a casual smile, "Your Highness, I am a common man, so I would like to ask for your help."

"Your Highness, please turn a blind eye in the future. Considering Chen's loyalty, please do not punish him."

Xiao Xinyue: ...

……

The young man who was talked about by his future leader returned to the team with his sister.

Yun Zheng looked up at the sky and thought to himself, "Your Highness actually has such a person by his side."

Mingchen's appearance put him under great pressure.

He now vaguely realized that no matter what, he could never surpass the significance that Mingchen brought to Xiao Xinyue and this new dynasty.

"..."

The girl beside him was indifferent and silent, just following him like a little puppy.

After thinking about it, he sighed again: "Okay... okay..."

Having such people is always better than a world ruled by a good-for-nothing.

He shook his head, turned to look into his sister's eyes, and said softly, "Yao'er, he is the teacher I found for you."

"I'll probably be leaving the team after tomorrow, so you have to listen to him."

Since I was a child, my parents kept complaining in the house that they gave birth to two monsters.

In fact... they don’t understand, their level is not high enough, they just don’t comprehend.

He and his sister are different from those who are destined to be drowned in the torrent of history.

They are heroes born from heaven and earth, brilliant people, destined to change the world, rise in social status, and leave their names in the brilliant history.

"..."

The girl looked at her brother, thought briefly, and nodded in agreement.

……

Time passed slowly.

Baizhou, Linguang City military camp.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

The soldiers' mighty roars shook the earth. Their faces were firm and serious, their eyes were sharp like dragons, and they practiced by waving their weapons vigorously.

The entire army was like a sword drawn from its sheath, exuding surging spirit.

They were undergoing rigorous training day and night, honing their morale and will under the leadership of the legendary general.

They played exceptionally hard today.

Because on the high platform, the general, who was not in a strong build, was standing there, watching them quietly.

The general's legendary resume is well known to everyone.

The general did not treat his soldiers like his own sons, nor did he eat or sleep with them. However, he gave everyone a fair chance, guided their training, taught them battle formations, and kept everything in perfect order.

Such a general deserves the respect of everyone.

Even the chaos in Kyoto did not affect this place.

A gentle breeze blew up a few strands of black hair on the general's temples.

Ling Yu stood on the stage, quietly watching the hard-working people below.

These days she lived a very ordinary life, either managing government affairs in the city or training the army in the barracks...

She had received three transfer orders from Kyoto, but each had been rejected. She was now in a state of rebellion, but the capital was too far away to do anything to her. With two hundred thousand troops under her command, she was already a powerful lord, and no one dared to underestimate her.

Linguang is an important granary in Qianyuan, so there is no need to worry about food problems.

She refused to leave and refused to join the Great Qi. The Blood-Clothed Army also gave up attacking Linguang and turned eastward.

Now she was just waiting, waiting for that person to come.

She raised her head, looked at the bright sun above her head, and squinted her eyes slightly.

Longing will not fade away with the passage of time, but will only become stronger.

Calculating the time, that person should be here soon...

She hadn't thought about much in her life. Originally, she had only thought about fighting against Bei Lie and defending her country, but now another person had rudely squeezed in.

Even a little bit, it occupied her entire heart.

When thoughts are flying,

"Report~"

A messenger soldier came running over: "General, there are six hundred cavalrymen approaching us rapidly from five miles away. We can confirm that Her Royal Highness the Princess has arrived..."

"what?!"

The general, who had just been daydreaming, was shocked and came back to his senses in an instant.

"They're coming?!"

My heart beat faster and faster, and strong longing surged in my heart.

She didn't know why, but her body was out of control.

"go!"

The figure flashed and she disappeared from the spot in an instant.

Before the messenger could react, she had already climbed onto the horse.

……

"What happened?" "That was Lord Ling who just passed by, right? Is there going to be another war?"

"No way! Didn't the Blood-Cloaked Army retreat?"

"Master Ling, please don't leave..."

"Could it be..."

……

In Linguang City, people watched the horses galloping past on the official road on the streets.

They couldn't help but whisper to each other and talk.

Compared to the hostile look when Ling Yu first arrived, it was a world of difference.

The people can feel who is good to them.

The original leader here, Ma Minghui, was not a good official. His harsh policies and heavy taxes made people miserable. Many people even hoped that the Blood-Clothed Army could break through Linguang City.

However, Ma Minghui was assassinated overnight, and the huge state naturally fell into Ling Yu's hands.

After all, she is in charge of the army, and being in charge of the army means she has the final say.

Ling Yu bravely accepted the task of governing the entire prefecture, eradicating corruption and reducing harsh taxes. She personally led troops to suppress the city's grain merchants, who had colluded with officials to drive up grain prices, leaving the people unable to afford food.

They even opened their granaries and sold grain to the people at a fair price.

Those despicable people should be arrested and put in jail.

Anyway, she has soldiers under her command, so she can do whatever she wants. Landlords, gentry, corrupt officials... all fear her like the plague.

This general, who was originally disliked by the people, was like a breeze that blew away all the dark clouds and returned the bright sky to the people.

All her actions were seen by the people, and naturally, she won everyone's love.

The people live and work in peace and contentment. Except for some people with strong faith, naturally no one would want to become a bloody rebel.

The general is in a hurry today. Is it because...something happened?

……

outside the city,

"Your Highness, we are here!"

The sun is shining brightly and the sky is clear.

Seeing the towering city from afar, Xiao Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Your Majesty, I am glad to have lived up to your trust."

Arriving here, Xiao Xinyue can finally be considered safe.

His eyes sparkled as he looked up at the sky and spoke secretly to the deceased king.

All the way, from north to south, across thousands of miles, through hardships, in the end, we lived up to the trust placed in us...

Except in front of Mingchen, Xiao Xinyue manages her facial expressions very well.

"kindness!"

Her journey of wandering has come to an end, but her expression remains calm.

"Your Highness, let's hurry up."

It was rare to see that the playboy urged anxiously.

He had all five senses and was extremely powerful. He saw the person waiting in front of the city gate at a glance.

The first woman he loved in this world, his lovely silly sister, a loyal, persistent, kind and beautiful woman.

Come as you like.

He never suppressed his emotions.

Let love and longing flow freely and occupy his mind freely.

……

I don’t know if it was an illusion of the adjutants around Ling Yu, but they always felt that their cold and decisive general seemed a little uneasy.

Tidy up your makeup and appearance from time to time.

But it’s normal... after all, you are going to meet your future leader!

They were also very excited.

As the distance gets closer, the person you still miss becomes clearer and more real.

"General Ling Yu pays homage to His Highness."

The loyal general did not become arrogant and did not expand his ambitions.

When the new king she supported arrived, she simply bowed respectfully.

But that scorching gaze was not directed at the most loyal person, the most eye-catching member of the royal family.

Instead, he went to the other side, to the person he thought about day and night.

It just so happened that the man was smiling with his eyebrows curved, and her reflection was in his cunning eyes.

Unconsciously, she also curled up the corners of her lips and smiled lightly, and her heart seemed to be filled at this moment.

"Please stand up quickly, General Ling, please stand up quickly."

"I would also like to thank General Ling for his understanding of justice and his efforts to turn the tide."

Although she escaped from the imperial city, Xiao Xinyue had a dignified face and decent manners, and she did not look like an exiled princess at all.

She personally took a few steps forward, helped Ling Yu up, and looked at her deeply.

This person... I didn't look carefully at first, and it turned out to be a woman.

Mingchen, do you like her?

Ling Yu didn't notice the strange look in Xiao Xinyue's eyes. He just bowed and said, "It's my job. Your Highness, thank you for your praise."

"Long time no see, General Ling is still as charming as ever!"

Feng Xiaozhong and Ling Yu are old acquaintances. Entrusted by the God of War, he has raised this young general as his own child and is even preparing to be the matchmaker between him and Mingchen!
Seeing the other party grow from an ignorant newcomer in the officialdom to the world-famous general he is today, he also feels a sense of pride.

"Master Feng, you have worked hard on this journey."

"Hahaha~ It's not hard, it's not hard."

"General Ling, I have long heard of your great name. My name is Xiao Ling."

"Hello, General Xiao! I've heard a lot about you!"

……

When the upper class people meet formally for the first time, they have to greet each other and exchange greetings.

Ling Yu brought people to meet them one by one.

In the end, she could finally look at that man with peace of mind.

"Brother Chen, long time no see."

In front of others, she did not politely use the official and polite title of "Lord Ming", but called him by the most intimate name, and did not mind others knowing how close they were.

She was quiet and just said hello briefly.

But thousands of words are hidden in those watery eyes.

The deep love turned into a thread that tightly wrapped around the person in front of me, and I could no longer get rid of it.

"Brother, I'm here."
