~10 min read 1,922 words

For a long time, Gu Yun said in a low voice: "For a team like the Su family army, it is very necessary to form a special forces unit to perform special tasks. Every person in this team must be an elite single soldier, capable of independently completing special tasks such as harassment and destruction, reconnaissance behind enemy lines, stealing intelligence, and even fighting and assassination. Their equipment must be the most sophisticated, and their abilities must be the most outstanding. Most importantly, they don't belong to any camp in the Su family army, and the only person who can command them is you."

Su Ling's heart suddenly jumped! His black eyes narrowed slightly, looking at Gu Yun's plain face. Her clear eyes were full of openness and clarity. Facing Su Ling's deep and complex eyes, Gu Yun suddenly understood what his vigilance was for, so she shook her head slightly and smiled frankly: "You don't have to be so nervous, I didn't ask you to rebel. Besides, if you want to rebel, a special forces unit is not enough. In a sense, soldiers and swords are the same, they are all weapons. Weapons have no loyalty or evil, it mainly depends on the people who use them. Forming a special forces unit is just my personal opinion, you can consider whether it is feasible or not."

Gu Yun shrugged indifferently, she just gave him a suggestion, whether to listen or not was up to him.

Getting up and picking up the cloth balls frozen into ice cubes, putting them into the wooden bucket beside, Gu Yun sighed, she had always cherished weapons, and also maintained guns very carefully before, now it seems that this doesn't apply to Ice Refining.

Gu Yun was busy with her own affairs, but didn't notice that the eagle eyes hadn't moved away from her.

"I think what you said is very good, and this is exactly what I want to talk to you about." Perhaps he just wanted to find something for her to do at first, but now he changed his mind. After finally cleaning up everything, Su Ling's low voice sounded behind her. Gu Yun turned around slowly and asked somewhat incredulously: "You want me to help you train?" She didn't distrust her ability, but didn't believe that Su Ling would ask her to train such a special unit.

Su Ling nodded generously and replied: "When this unit needs to be used, it must be in the most dangerous situation. I need someone who is capable and trustworthy to train them."

A capable and trustworthy person? Was he talking about her? The more Gu Yun listened, the more her scalp felt numb, but on his face, she didn't see anything strange. Gu Yun was silent. Su Ling asked directly: "I'll give you a monthly salary of 300 taels. Are you satisfied?"

Although Gu Yun didn't know what 300 taels meant, she knew it was definitely not a small amount. Vaguely, she had already guessed Su Ling's purpose tonight, so she snorted coldly in her heart and said calmly: "What is Han Shu's monthly salary?"

Why did she ask this? Su Ling hesitated for a while. Under Gu Yun's cold gaze, he finally replied: "200 taels." Did she still see his intention?

Just when Su Ling was worried that her stubborn personality would refuse, Gu Yun replied briskly: "At the beginning of running-in with your army, just treat it as a probation period. I will receive the same monthly salary as Han Shu. When the results come out, I will ask for a raise."

She wouldn't have trouble with money, and she took the income corresponding to her own efforts. What Su Ling's intention was didn't matter to her. If she took his money, she would naturally let him see the value of this money, and she really missed the days of training Leng Xiao and the others. Perhaps with their company, every day here would be easier to live!

She agreed, and Su Ling's hanging heart was let go, so he replied: "Su Ren will arrive in the capital in three days. By then, you can pick the soldiers you need from the permanent army of the Su family army in the capital." He was now looking forward to her so-called special forces. He still remembered that the excellent man named Leng Xiao would rather give up the opportunity to enter the Fu Hu Camp than follow her. Perhaps she was really worth it.

"Special forces value quality over quantity. I only want the 100 most outstanding ones." One against a thousand, this was the goal she once said to Han Shu, and she would achieve it.

"Good." Since he handed it to her to train, Su Ling didn't intend to interfere with her. Under the moonlight, two tall and short slender shadows stood side by side. Her already beautiful face was even softer, her long eyelashes were like a crescent moon, and those bright eyes were still as clear and persistent as usual. It turned out that a woman's eyes could be so beautiful.

Su Ling stared at her with deep black eyes. Gu Yun suddenly felt uncomfortable and asked awkwardly: "Anything else?"

"No." Leaving a cold sentence, Su Ling turned and walked out of Yitian Courtyard. Looking at the tall figure walking away in a hurry, Gu Yun was inexplicable, why did he glare at her?

The night was hazy. In an exquisite small room, a soft oil lamp was lit. In front of the small baby bed, the beautiful and dignified lady looked at the baby in the small bed with tenderness, her face full of love. The baby's pink face was red, and under the lady's gentle coaxing, he fell asleep peacefully. The maid standing behind the lady advised in a low voice: "Madam, it's past the Zi hour, the young master has fallen asleep, you should also rest early, this servant will take good care of the young master."

The lady's beautiful brows furrowed slightly, her eyes never leaving the little life in the cradle. For a long time, she reluctantly put down the treasure in her heart and ordered uneasily: "Hmm, you must be careful, if there is anything, call me immediately." This was the child she and the old master had been looking forward to for a long time, and it was their lifeblood.

"Yes." The maid nodded repeatedly.

The slender hand gently pulled up the small quilt to cover him, and the lady got up reluctantly. Just as she walked to the screen, she heard the closed window suddenly blown open by a gust of wind, bang, and smashed against the wall. A dark figure appeared in the room in an incomparably ghostly way. Under the moonlight, the tall figure stood quietly in front of the baby bed, black clothes and silver hair. His appearance was as cold as death. Back to the moonlight, she couldn't see his face, but she could feel the cold breath rushing toward her. The lady asked in panic: "You... who are you?"

The man didn't speak and picked up the baby on the bed neatly. Because of the sudden noise and the sudden touch, the baby moved uneasily. The lady was even more panicked, rushing forward while shouting anxiously: "What are you doing, put down my son!"

The man turned around indifferently, the dazzling silver silk drew a silver light under the moonlight, and the dark figure also headed toward the window.

"Stop, give me back my son!" The instinct of a mother to protect her children made the usually weak woman rush to the window quickly, almost grabbing the man's clothes. A cold light flashed in the man's eyes, and he waved his hand mercilessly. The lady's figure immediately hit the screen not far away like a kite with a broken string.

"Ah!" The lady's forehead hit the edge of the screen, and blood flowed out. The blood frightened the maid who was already stunned. She hurriedly stepped forward, helped up the lady who was half-lying on the ground, and asked anxiously: "Madam! Are you okay?"

The two sat on the ground, and the dark figure also disappeared into the night quickly. A series of changes frightened the child in his arms, and he cried loudly. The crying sound went further and further, but it tore the mother's heart fiercely. The lady couldn't feel the pain on her forehead at all. Her heart had been torn into pieces at this moment, and she kept crying: "My son! My son..."

The maid helped the lady who fell to the ground while screaming in a panic: "Someone! Come on! The young master is in trouble!"

The sharp shouting soon attracted a group of servants. Before long, a middle-aged man in his fifties also rushed over. As soon as he entered the room, he was caught off guard by the mess and blood in the room. He helped up the lady who was crying heartbrokenly and asked anxiously: "What's going on?"

The low male voice finally made the lady recover a bit of sanity. She grabbed his hand tightly and cried hysterically: "Master... Master, save our son, he was snatched away by a man with silver hair! Save him! Save him!"

Hearing the silver hair, the hand of the middle-aged man holding the lady also shook uncontrollably. Silver-haired man! Is it the silver-haired man again? Thinking of the things that happened recently, the middle-aged man's face was ashen.

Waves again

After taking the task of training special forces, Gu Yun didn't have any leisure time. These few days, she was making training plans and also stepped up to draw diagrams of weapons and training equipment to facilitate Su Ling to prepare. She only wanted 100 people because she wanted to ensure that everyone could get the best training and have the most sophisticated weapons.

Gu Yun was buried in thinking about what higher-intensity training needed to be added when Ming Shu's voice sounded outside the door: "Young lady."

Without raising her head, Gu Yun asked casually: "What's the matter?"

Ming Shu didn't walk into the room and replied respectfully outside: "Tomorrow is the wedding of Prime Minister Lou. The Prime Minister's Mansion sent someone to say that for tomorrow's greeting, Miss Qing Ling has moved to the Haoyue Post Station. You can see her directly when you go to the post station tomorrow morning."

Is it the wedding tomorrow? Just focusing on the training plan, she almost forgot the time. Gu Yun patted her forehead and sighed with a smile: "I know." She stretched her waist and found that it was sunset, and the training plan in her hand was almost done, so she asked, "Is Su Ren back?"

"Returned last night."

It's good to be back. Let the soldiers rest for a few days, and she can pick soldiers. Gu Yun buried herself in the training plan again and replied lightly: "You go busy."

"Yes." Ming Shu turned to retreat, but Gu Yun seemed to think of something, raised her head and said anxiously: "Wait. Ming Shu, trouble you to find me a woman's dress, don't be too gorgeous and exaggerated. Send it over early tomorrow." Almost forgot, tomorrow is Zhuo Qing's wedding, she can't go to congratulate in black!

"Yes." Ming Shu smiled, it was difficult for her to remember this, it seems that the young lady cares about that sister very much.
