Chapter 401

~6 min read 1,097 words

Jingdu, though full of hidden dangers, they are all concealed; what they can help with exists, but it's too little; what they can see exists, but it's only the tip of the iceberg, unable to see the whole picture.

Half of the children have their goals in the barracks; when I am there, I can protect them.

When I am not there, who will protect her children?

Point at Ning Chengyan? Forget it, he's a dog of a man—better not hope for that.

Yun chu, Qing feng's words are not without reason; the children are too young, you need to give them time to grow, you're pushing them so urgently, the children will be overwhelmed. Kang Mengxian is also somewhat anxious; these children, each one is the future of Da Ning.

If any one of them encounters an accident, he would regret it endlessly.

Jiang Yunchu smiled and said, "How could I not know?"

"But will others give me time? I can give them time, but can the hidden hand behind the scenes give time?"

She let out a soft sigh, looked at the three respected elders, she knew their worries, and she herself was even more worried.

"The enemy won't wait until we're ready before striking."

"We can only seize every moment to let our own wings grow full, to let them become better versions of themselves."

Time, she lacks!

Silver, she lacks! Storing grain warehouse by warehouse, she realizes no amount of silver is enough; now Da Ning is beset on all sides, internal troubles and external threats.

One or two discoveries of weapons, as well as large amounts of grain, have all given her a signal.

Over there, they are preparing for war!

And what about Da Ning? Is it still indulging in ease and pleasure, unmoved?

When the troops are at the city gates, to regret then—wouldn't that be too late?

Much of the information is unknown to those present, and also something she cannot speak of.

"You know Ning Qiancheng's identity; if he doesn't contend, he can only die." In that cannibalistic place in the Palace, he needs his own power, his own troops, people to take sides.

If he doesn't contend, only death awaits him; no matter who sits in that position, they will not let him go, because those people bullied him when they were young, and even in the midnight reverie, people fear ghosts knocking at the door.

The three old men fell silent, looking at Jiang Yunchu's eyes, even feeling some pity.

"Ning Hanmo's childhood wish was the battlefield; now I can accompany him there, but can I in the future?" Her words fell, and the three people had not yet reacted.

Now the three of them lifted their heads together, "You want to go to the battlefield?"

"Yun chu, you want to go to the battlefield?" Kang Mengxian asked again separately.

Jiang Yunchu nodded, gave a light smile, "General Chiang has met with an incident."

Her single sentence made the three people in the room's faces turn grave.

Da Ning's situation: four generals guard the four directions; if General Chiang encounters an incident, a gap appears; now in the court, who can hold this gap…

The Wang Fu army guards the south, the Jiang clan army guards the north, the emperor's own troops guard the exact east, and the west has always been led by the Chiang family.

But General Chiang is old; this time he was poisoned by a sneak attack from Xijiang; the west sent an urgent military report, but few know; His Majesty is also considering who to send.

General Han went to request an imperial edict, but Your Majesty rejected it.

These pieces of news could only be concealed for three days; after three days, the court will be in an uproar, various countries will be restless, the populace unstable, the ruler's heart uneasy.

Someone must go; the most suitable choice…… Jiang Yunchu looked toward Kang Mengxian.

"Fengsheng!"

The Kang Clan's second son's wife, Chiang Fengsheng!

Jiang Yunchu silently nodded, "Second aunt is the most suitable person; the situation is unstable, on this side of the court you all guard and escort, I am reassured."

The Jiang clan's barren mountains yielded over ten thousand military weapons.

The Name Ranking Academy also turned up several crates of weapons.

Today's Jiang Yunchu seems like a demolition expert, lighting bombs one by one, causing great waves in the hearts of the three old men.

"No wonder……" Kang Mengxian and Qing feng exchanged a glance.

Recently His Majesty overruled opposition, issuing many orders; they had originally been planning slowly, but His Majesty suddenly changed his previous style, becoming decisive and swift.

Our time is not much.

There's no way to let them get ready over there.

"Since you want to start a war, then fight!" The woman who had just lowered her brows and head suddenly raised her hand, and everyone saw the coldness in her eyes.

Children, I have taken them away.

The Wang Fu can be forsaken, but…… people must survive.

Once she leaves, many previously guarded places will have loopholes, and those people will also make extensive use of her identity to fabricate stories.

Left with no choice, the Wang Fu can be abandoned!

But these relatives, she does not want to lose.

Go ahead without worry; we have our own means of survival, the children have left, and I can also live in seclusion at the Kang Fu.

Kang Mengxian stroked his beard, gave a light smile, he stepped out, nothing more than not being at ease about Yun chu; all his scheming is to let Yun chu grow up gradually.

But……

He raised his head to look at Jiang Yunchu; this girl has already surpassed everyone's imagination—her resilience, her wisdom, her forbearance, her inner strength, all of it surpasses everything.

She is Jiang Yunchu!

At this moment, he feels deeply moved; fortunately, she is Jiang Yunchu.

Let them all be willing to step back, let everyone unconsciously follow her pace forward, let everyone unconsciously be convinced.

This is enough!

Ningguang looks at Yun chu, "I will guard at the Regent Prince's Manor; if I cannot hold it, I still have Ningguang Peak, I can stay out of worldly affairs for eighteen years, and I can also wait for you another eighteen years on Ningguang Peak."

"Jiang Yunchu, you are different from Kang Ying; in the previous eighteen years of waiting, my heart was like dead ashes, utterly without hope."

"The eighteen years I promised you, I carry hope."

"You, come back alive."
