, update the latest chapters as soon as possible!

Su Xinyi thought about it and spoke slowly, "Brother, what are your plans after returning to Beijing this time?"

Su Yi didn't understand what her sister meant for a moment, and looked at her suspiciously, "What do you want to say?"

Su Xinyi smiled and said, "This time, my brother first followed Mr. Yang in a sneak attack on grain and grass and made great achievements, and then followed Commander Guo's orders to pursue the enemy. Although he regretfully turned back due to heavy rain, he also beheaded many enemies along the way. , after returning to Beijing, you will definitely be rewarded based on your merits.

Su Yi listened to his sister's words and said, "These are military matters. It's hard to talk about it now."

Even though everyone was very harmonious during the war, after the war everyone insisted on their merits and refused to give in to each other.

Su Yi was familiar with Yang Jin about the sneak attack on grain and grass, so Commander Guo ordered him to send troops together with Yang Jin, not only to support His Highness the Crown Prince, but also to get a share of the military merits.

Guo Meng is a cunning old man. The reason why he sent himself to act with Yang Jin is mainly because he was once seconded by the East Palace and has some friendship with Yang Jin.

Today's Su Yi is not as honest and silly as he was back then. He was thrown out by his sister several times to gain experience, and he has become very thoughtful.

"Then brother still wants to stay in the Royal Forest Army?" Su Xinyi asked.

Su Yi looked at her sister in surprise, "Where else would we go?"

Su Xinyi and her brother stared at each other, Su Yi looked confused, but Su Xinyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

She and her brother have completely different ideas. They think about things from different angles, so they see the future from different perspectives.

Su Xinyi thought for a while and said: "Brother, although the Royal Forest Army is the emperor's personal guard, it can only guard the imperial city. Unless it can be particularly outstanding in front of His Majesty, it will not be easy to be promoted. If you can be transferred to the border town this time, The opportunity is even rarer to come across.”

"Being the emperor's personal guard is a good job that many people can't ask for. Why do you still dislike it?" Su Yi said with a smile.

"It's not that I dislike it, I just have some ideas that I want to discuss with my elder brother." Su Xinyi didn't know how to speak for a while, and there was a hint of hesitation on his face.

Su Yi said with a smile: "Then just tell me, there is nothing we brothers and sisters cannot say."

"Okay, let me tell you directly. Does the eldest brother want to be a wealthy idler in the capital for the rest of his life, spending the rest of his life holding a mediocre official position in the Royal Guards, or does he want to move to a higher place?"

"As you said, I naturally want to earn a future in an upright and upright manner." Su Yi took a breath, "I know that after the fourth uncle left, people outside felt that the Duke of Qi's mansion was in decline, but I didn't want to just admit it. , I also want to give it a try.”

Outsiders say that the father and son are loyal and honest, which sounds good, but many people laugh at them behind their backs, although they are from the Su family, but they have no Su family roots, which is useless.

After Su Xinyi knew what his elder brother was thinking, he made up his mind and told him about setting up a caravan this time.

Su Yi:......

If he can't see it, the sixth sister is causing trouble in places he doesn't know about.

Even though he was mentally prepared, he still broke out in a cold sweat. He looked at her and sighed, "Has the courage of our Su family grown in you? Do you dare to do such a thing?"

This is not something I dare to think about, it has already been done!

Su Xinyi smiled bitterly in her heart after listening to her elder brother's words. If she had the same courage as this one in her previous life, how could she end up in that situation.

She is full of courage, she clearly understands it after suffering a lot.

"Brother, you said before that after the war, the commanders of the various guard posts, the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, and the adults in the Ministry of War will all have a share of the pie. Although this is a victory, it will fall on you after it is divided among everyone. How many achievements can you achieve?"

The biggest contributor to the war is naturally the commander-in-chief of the three armies, and then there are the various commanders. Under the commanders are their own capable soldiers. Even if someone like his eldest brother has made a great contribution, he will be divided up by all parties layer by layer. Not much falls on the head.

Fortunately, Su Yi bears the name of the Su family and has the merit of going on the expedition with Yang Jin, so his share will not be divided too much.

Therefore, it is not enough to remain a small shrimp or fish at the bottom. You have to find a way to move up. The title of the Prince of the Duke of Qi is good among the nobles, but how much weight does it have among the military?

In the military, the only thing that can convince people is their performance!

Even if the Su family has a solid foundation in the military, if Su Yi is an Adou who cannot afford it, as time goes by these people will slowly change their banners and join the Ming Dynasty. This is human nature.

If the eldest brother has no ambitions, he can slowly gain seniority in the Royal Forest Army. When he is older and Commander Guo retires, he can also become a commander or a fellow commander in the Su family, but what about that? What does it mean? In the final analysis, if you can't convince the crowd, you won't be able to sit firmly on it, and it's hard to say whether someone will knock you off in the future.

After the two brothers and sisters had such a heart-to-heart talk, Su Yi looked at his sister and said, "Do you want me to take charge of the caravan you set up?"

Su Xinyi nodded, "This matter is very risky, and we have to rely on our own people to rest assured. Not only me, but also His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Highness Prince Rong will do the same. Who should sit in this position for the love of Prince Rong?" With His Highness the Crown Prince's temperament, he will definitely fight with each other. If His Highness Prince Rong's people are allowed to take over the power, wouldn't it mean that I have to work hard to make wedding clothes for others? That will definitely not work."

Su Yi nodded, "His Royal Highness Prince Rong really likes to compare with His Highness the Crown Prince."

"So neither Prince Rong nor His Highness the Crown Prince is suitable to sit on it. If I recommend the eldest brother, Prince Rong will definitely not object. In addition, the eldest brother has been borrowed by His Highness the Crown Prince before, and he has a good impression of the eldest brother. His Highness the Crown Prince probably won't either." I objected, and I trust my brother even more, so I thought about it before speaking to him."

Su Xinyi paused slightly when he said this, "This matter doesn't seem to be a big deal at the moment, but if the Tatar tribes invade again in the future, what the eldest brother has in hand will definitely make a big splash, and the Su family will be honored again because of the eldest brother."

Su Yi:......

He looked at his sixth sister, who was talking freely and confidently, as if he had seen his fourth uncle back then. When he was still young, one time his fourth uncle came to his father to discuss the expedition. His fourth uncle also scolded Fang Qiu in such a high-spirited manner, Everything is under control.

He still very clearly remembers the confident, arrogant but calm face of his fourth uncle, which is a quality that he will never have but very much yearns for.

But now that Sixth Sister told him that he could become such a person, Su Yi was tempted.

He knows that his nature is a bit hesitant and hesitant in doing things. Others say he is honest, but he knows that he is indecisive.

His father had such a temperament. He grew up with his father, so he naturally imitated his father's behavior, but now he wanted to change it.

"Okay, big brother, do what you say, do it!" Su Yi gritted his teeth and said.

Su Xinyi couldn't help but feel happy when she saw her eldest brother cutting off his wrist like a strong man. Su Yi was embarrassed and laughed too.

It sounds simple, but it's really not easy to do it. It can't be done in a day or two.

How can Su Yi escape from the Royal Forest Army and Li, and how can he take over this matter in a logical way, without attracting attention, with a suitable name, and in charge of an unusual caravan? This is also a problem for Su Yi. A place to learn.

While the two brothers and sisters were discussing, Su Xinyi suddenly remembered Shang Junyanlai. Although this man was a mess at home, he did a great job as an official. It was a pity that they had different personalities. Otherwise, poaching him to serve as his eldest brother's deputy would have been even more powerful.

Pity.

Talent is hard to find these days, and Su Xinyi finally understands what it feels like to be hungry for talent.

On the other side, Yan Junchu was about to return to Beijing. It was his duty to escort the grain and grass this time. Unexpectedly, he borrowed Su Xinyi's Dongfeng to intercept the enemy's grain and grass, which led to the enemy's indirect defeat. This return to Beijing must be extremely glorious. .

King Rong was very aggrieved. He didn't even have a chance to borrow the east wind, and he still had to work as an ox and a horse for the prince and Su Xinyi. He just cried in the wind and cried a thousand lines. new

Su Xinyi's achievements this time were testified by the crown prince and King Rong, and no one dared to snatch her away. However, she was just a post-husband without a formal establishment. How to reward Zhu Pengzu for this contribution was also a headache, especially since Su Xinyi was Su Chun. His Majesty's daughter, and Su Chunjian is in the heart of the emperor. She died in the battle to protect the family and the country. I don't know how much weight she has in your majesty's heart. Anyway, it is heavier than the average person.

After several considerations, these people all pretended to be mute, pushed the matter in front of His Majesty the Crown Prince, complained about the difficulties, and finally expressed their feelings and waited for His Majesty's decision.

Su Xinyi was not surprised at all by this result. What surprised her was that King Rong was so angry that he almost jumped up.

"These old guys are more shameless than the last!"

Su Xinyi:......

When King Rong had scolded him enough, she looked at him and said, "This is human nature. I am not a member of the military, and I am indeed not under their jurisdiction."

"If you hadn't risked your life at great risk, would this war have ended so quickly?"

Su Xinyi was heartbroken when she heard this. Although she was happy that Nan Qi had fewer casualties, this was completely the opposite development from her original ambition to come to Border Pass.

She has buried herself in a pit, and she can't feel wronged. What's the matter?

Probably because she was so unlucky in her previous life, God took pity on her in this life, and her luck was better, so she ran into the enemy's grain transport team.

Although she still felt regretful, the time had not come yet, so she could only regret returning to Beijing and wait until later.

Fortunately, this trip was not in vain. Her father had no chance to implement the idea in her father's note, but she would do it for him.

Just like this time, it was my father's idea to go deep into the grasslands with the help of a caravan, but he died for the country before he had time to make detailed arrangements.

"As long as it is beneficial to the court and the people, it doesn't matter." Su Xinyi looked at King Rong and smiled, "What's more, His Majesty treats the Duke of Qi favorably, and the rewards continue every year. Our Su family is bathed in God's grace, and has been blessed by His Majesty. It is the mission of the Su family to die loyally."

King Rong was so moved. He really didn't realize that Su Xinyi had such a strong character. Even though he grew up in the countryside, he still had the blood of the Su family. This loyalty was so touching. When he returned to the capital, he I must have a good talk with my father.

"Hmph, you are the only one with a kind heart." Rong Wang gritted his teeth. Yes, she was generous to everyone, but she was cruel, fierce and unreasonable to him. She would attack at the slightest disagreement. It was simply unreasonable.

Su Xinyi:......

Don't think she can't hear that he's sarcastic about her!

"Do you want to go back to Beijing with me?" King Rong looked at Su Xinyi and asked again.

Su Xinyi was stunned for a moment, she had never thought about it.

Looking at Su Xinyi's expression, King Rong immediately said: "Hey, you won't be with the army. It's inconvenient for you to be a woman."

"Then it won't be convenient for me to go back to the capital with the prince." Su Xinyi refused. With the queen's temper, if she went back to the capital with Prince Rong, she might be disgusted with her.

She would never give the Queen a chance for such a frustrating thing.

Didn't you suffer a lot at the hands of the Queen in your previous life?

"Then you want to follow the prince back to the capital?" King Rong almost jumped up. He didn't understand why Su Xinyi's eyes were crooked. Looking at him, he looked like a wolf, tiger and leopard, and looking at the prince, he looked like Guanyin descending to earth. This is not the only thing. It's partiality. Her heart must have been crooked since her mother's womb.

"What the prince said, don't I have legs myself? I will go back the same way I came here!"

When King Rong heard this, he turned off the flames. She knew the truth, as long as she didn't go with the prince.

"We will leave tomorrow. We have to return to the capital to discuss the rest of the caravan's affairs. Don't worry." King Rong reminded him awkwardly.

Su Xinyi smiled, "I'm not in a hurry. After all, His Majesty is having a difficult time. This matter depends on the prince."

King Rong's words sounded pleasant to his ears, and he patted his chest and said, "Don't worry."

Su Xinyi smiled even more harmlessly.

She was relieved, but she was afraid that King Rong's life would be difficult if the queen knew about it.

However, as long as the queen is unhappy, Su Xinyi will be happy.

Su Xinyi said goodbye to King Rong and returned to the small courtyard. As soon as she entered the door, she saw the prince sitting in the courtyard and looked at him in surprise, "Why is your highness here?"

Yan Junchu turned his head and looked at Su Xinyi, "I'm going back to Beijing. I came to say goodbye to you."

Su Xinyi smiled. Look, this is the difference between His Highness the Crown Prince and King Rong. His Highness the Crown Prince would never invite her to return to the capital. She always felt that it was easy to get along with His Highness the Crown Prince, and he would not make her feel pressured.

"Then I wish His Highness a safe journey." Su Xinyi said with a smile.

Yan Junchu stood up, walked slowly to her, and looked down at her slightly, "I will let Pang Lan temporarily leave the arrangement of the caravan here. The person who takes over this matter will directly follow Pang Lan's arrangements. yes."

Su Xinyi looked at His Highness the Crown Prince in surprise, thought for a moment and said, "Your Highness, this matter should wait until His Majesty gives his approval."

This matter may be big or small, it depends on how Your Majesty handles it.

Su Xinyi didn't want to involve the prince, so he refused.

"It doesn't matter. Although this matter is not visible, it is indeed a good thing that benefits the country and the people. I will convince my father." Yan Junchu wanted to laugh when he saw Su Xinyi's troubled expression. He still didn't quite understand why she always wanted to Protect him.

He is not a good person, but he always wants to pretend to be a good person in front of her.

"Then thank you, Your Highness."

"Goodbye in the capital. Don't be anxious on the way back to the capital. Safety comes first."

Su Xinyi lowered his head slightly and nodded, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Yan Junchu's eyes turned to her, and then he raised his feet and left.

After the prince left, Su Xinyi breathed a sigh of relief. Although she knew why, she didn't dare to raise her head and look at His Highness before. The feeling was very subtle and made her slightly upset.

Zhanqiao and the others were so busy that no one could be seen. Firstly, it was because of the caravan, and secondly, they had to return to Beijing, so Su Xinyi was free.

When night fell, she jumped up to the roof, lay on the tiles and stared at the night sky. She had not been so leisurely for a long time.

The sounds of people walking and talking on the street could still be heard in her ears, and every word was laced with laughter. She laughed as she listened to their laughter.

The stars in the sky twinkled so brightly that it made people's eyes ache.

"When we return to Yulinwei, we don't know what's going on with the crops in the fields."

"It won't last for a while. Before I left, the girl left a letter to the neighbors asking them to help take care of it. It should be fine."

"Tian Zao, if we join the military, we won't be entitled to household benefits. Who will farm our land?"

"I don't know." Tian Zao said, "When the time comes, I'll just listen to the guards."

Logically speaking, the purpose of providing household support is to make up for it from the clan, but both of them are bare-bones, and there is no one in the clan for a long time. Tian Zao doesn't know what to do about this.

Su Xinyi heard the two people talking on the roof and stuck her head out to look at them, "It doesn't matter, there are no clan members to compensate for, and the guard station will assign another tenant to you, so you won't go hungry."

The two of them were shocked. Who would have thought that the girl would be on the roof.

Tian Zao said: "Girl, what are you doing on the roof? It's scary."

Su Xinyi stood up and jumped down, looked at the two of them and said, "Zhan Qiao has already greeted Pang Pang. You can go directly to Yulin Guard. As for the military merits and rewards, we have to wait."

Tian Zao nodded, "Don't worry, we can go to Yulin Guard after we send the girl away."

During these days, many people in Zhangping Mansion seemed to be close to them. Tian Zao knew that these people did not really value them, but saw the people behind them.

I don't know how happy it would be if someone else liked to camp, but for Tian Zao, it would be better to go to Yulin Wei to clean up.

Tian Zao still thought too optimistically. Even if they returned to Yulinwei for their achievements this time, it would be a new beginning for them, whether it was the Duke of Qi’s Mansion standing behind them or the people they had met with Dong Palace this time. Relationship, this is good or bad for them, it depends on how they behave.

Su Xinyi knew that the prince was going back to Beijing, but she did not expect that the prince would take Prince Rong away with him. On the day he left, the officials of the Zhangping Mansion went out of the city to see him off, but Su Xinyi did not go. It was not suitable for her to show up on such an occasion.

After the prince and King Rong left, Zhu Pengzu also prepared for the class to return to the capital. Su Xinyi sent Tian Zao and Bao Datong away before leaving. Bao Datong cried so miserably that Su Xinyi couldn't help but became happy.

Tian Zao dragged the person away with a dark face, walked a few steps and then turned back. When he saw the girl still standing there looking at them, he pursed his lips and then raised his riding crop and left with Bao Datong.

Once the two of them left, what was left was that Mu Xing and Cao Qing continued to stay here to prepare the caravan. Mu Xing also had to go back to Jing'an Mansion to find an expert who knew business and to build a business team. Team, things are troublesome and complicated. Although I have a large amount of money left by the sixth girl in my hand, I still feel heavy in my heart.

Cao Qing and Mu Xing set foot on the road to Jing'an Mansion, and Su Xinyi took Zhanqiao back to Beijing.

On the same day they left, Zhu Pengzu also set off with his army, and Su Yi was also among the army. Although he knew that his sister had some abilities, he was still worried about the safety on the road, and he would not be able to put it down until he reached the capital.

It was already late autumn when she returned from early summer. Su Xinyi's return to the city was not as hurried as her arrival. She and Zhan Qiao also took a detour to their hometown in Huaining and specially bought local rituals from the border town to bring to everyone. go.

When Mrs. Fang saw Su Xinyi, she happily held her hand and kept greeting her. Mrs. Li and Mrs. Tuesday also heard about the affairs in the border town, so they inevitably asked Su Xinyi a few questions when they saw her.

The third old man, Uncle Su and Second Master Su met Su Xinyi in the study room, and Su Xinyi greeted them politely.

The third old man looked at Su Xinyi and asked a few questions about the situation of Zhangping Mansion and Yulin Guards. After listening to Su Xinyi's words, he said: "When the war started, the surrounding guards were preparing for the war, the government was collecting food, and the military preparations department was rushing to make weapons. At that time Everyone thought it was a fierce battle, but they didn’t expect it to end so quickly.”

Su Xinyi felt a little embarrassed, and then he calmed down and said: "Yes, everyone thought so at the beginning, but we didn't expect that the situation on the grassland was worse than we expected, and the gathering of the Tatar army was not like it was just a pretense. But we really want to attack the border city in one go. Attack the Yulin Guards first, and then attack the Zhangping Prefecture. The situation is indeed very serious."

Thinking about it now, Su Xinyi felt that what happened was really surprising. Firstly, it was a natural disaster, and secondly, the Tatars were too confident, thinking that by gathering hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, they could take down Zhangping Mansion and Yulin Guards in one fell swoop. Thinking of Su Xinyi, a few people took them by surprise at Guanshan Pass.

At the beginning, Su Xinyi did not expect that the enemy's food and grass would be encountered by her so easily. Although she had thought about this possibility before, she only thought about it.

If it were anyone else, he might not have such good luck, but Su Xinyi had his father's letters in his hands, and the map as a guide, and his courage and luck led to a quick victory in this war.

After listening to Su Xinyi's words, Mr. Su laughed loudly, looked at his father and said, "This is the luck of our Su family. Xinyi is worthy of being Su's fourth daughter and the root of our Su family."

Mr. Su Er also nodded, sighed, looked at Su Xinyi and said, "Your father would be happy if he were still here."

Su Xinyi didn't know if her father would be happy, but she knew that this was what she could do at the moment. If she did it, she would have no regrets.

"Xin Yi, there is one more thing. Your eldest cousin and third cousin are going to the capital."

Su Xinyi was stunned for a moment after hearing what his uncle in the lobby said, and then asked: "Really? But what's going on in the capital?"

She was worried about something happening at home.

"No." Mr. Su waved his hand, "I was summoned by the East Palace. Do you know about this?"

Su Xinyi was stunned, East Palace?

She didn't hear His Highness the Crown Prince mention this matter, and shook her head slightly, "I don't know about this, and I really can't imagine why His Highness the Crown Prince asked the two cousins ​​to go to the capital."
