Aspirations for Nation and Beauty: Section 43 Sharpening the knife


Seeing that her elder brother was still not persuaded, Situ Yushuang shook her head helplessly. She also knew that if she wanted to impress the hearts of her elder brothers at this time, only strength, and only those with strength, would do it. Only by attracting their attention can they help their future so-called imperial hegemony, and they don't care about everything else. This is the true portrayal of being a royal.

"Sister Thirteen, I heard that Li Wufeng is flirtatious and attractive to women, but he hasn't married yet. I wonder if you've seen him?" Seeing that his sister hadn't spoken, Situ Lang changed the subject.

"No, this guy was just an insignificant regiment captain in the city guard army. After gaining a foothold in the northwest, he only returned to the imperial capital once. I haven't met him yet." Situ Yushuang shook her head and replied , raised his head and glanced at Situ Lang, wondering what his brother's plan was.

"To be honest, this guy is really capable. He was able to climb to this position in just a few years. Although there are various factors such as chance and coincidence, if he doesn't have a lot of skills, even if he sits up, he will fall down. But this kid has been promoted steadily, and even his father appreciates him very much. I don’t know how he is doing in Luzon this time. If he stumbles, even his father will find it difficult to protect him. I am afraid that even if everyone slanders and opposes it, it will not be able to offset the good mood of the father to expand the territory. At that time, I am afraid that this guy wants the stars in the sky, and the father may agree without hesitation." Situ Lang's scheming is actually not No less than his elder brothers, especially his keen prediction is in the same line as Situ Yushuang, after all, he was born of the same mother.

Situ Yushuang snorted lightly, but did not respond.

"By the way, Thirteenth Sister, I also heard that he had a close relationship with Angel of the Huey family. Probably this kid has already fallen under Angel's pomegranate skirt. How come you haven't seen him?" Situ Lang knew My sister has a good relationship with Angel.

"I've heard about this too, but I haven't asked Angel face to face, why, do you regret not pursuing her back then?" Angel asked back with a smile.

"Haha, Thirteenth Sister, it's not that you don't know your Ninth Brother's temper. I'm not very interested in these noble ladies. I don't talk about airs, and I often play petty temper. Where can I find beautiful women? You know, you can choose whatever you want from the slave market or Liujin Street, as long as you can afford it, you can choose from thousands of choices. It is common people, as long as your ninth brother nods, I am afraid there will be a long queue outside the house Let's go." Situ Lang has always paid attention to women, and he is not very interested in those noble daughters and ladies, and several princes and ministers proposed marriages for them, but he flatly declined them.

"Sister, you are not too young. Why, is there anyone you like? If there is, Brother Nine will come to enlighten him and ask him to come to ask for a marriage. However, I think it is difficult to find someone in the entire empire." There is no young man who is worthy of you, sister, alas, in the past two years, it is difficult to meet even one who is worthy of your eyes, let alone find someone who is worthy of you." Situ Lang was also quite touched In fact, there are quite a few children of princes and ministers in the entire empire, but they are all playboys, either indulging in sensuality, or just talking about the world, and there are really not many people who can be found.

Situ Yushuang's face turned cold, "Ninth brother, you should take care of your own affairs, I don't need you to worry about my affairs!" After saying that, she wanted to get up and leave.

"Don't be too busy, Brother Ninth is also doing it for your own good. I heard that Viscount Lanxi, the heir son of the Duke of Lanmont, the Minister of Military Affairs of the Grand Duchy of Terok, is a man, and he is also very infatuated with you. You never seem to pretend to him The color is similar, why, you still don't like it?" Situ Lang asked Situ Yushuang concerned, while thinking about it.

"Brother Nine, don't worry about my affairs, even the emperor didn't ask me about my affairs, what are you worrying about all day?" Painting, without the power to restrain a chicken, is also considered a character?"

"What about General Pippen, the second son of the Duke of Pique, the Deputy Minister of Military Affairs of the North Korea and China? He has admired you for a long time, and he is rare and honest, and he is not bothered. Now he is serving as the fourth division of the Second Army Corps." The deputy commander of the regiment has a bright future and is quite good." Situ Lang was not discouraged and continued to recommend.

"Pippen? Honest and honest? You can say that he is rude and stupid. He only knows how to wield knives and wield sticks. He has a hideous face. I will fall in love with him? I won't be able to meet him in the next life." Situ Yushuang had a contemptuous expression on his face.

"What about Qin Tiecheng of the Qin family? He was born in a famous family, and now he is very likely to inherit the Qin family's hereditary title, and he is also good at business. I heard that he has already managed to do business with Japanese people in Dadongyang. It is not easy. He Literary and martial arts are quite good, and he won the fifth place in the Imperial Capital Poetry Contest last year, and the direct disciple of the Sunset Sect can't be confused, and he has already mentioned it to me a few times, how about it?" Situ Lang Eloquent.

"Qin Tiecheng? His body smells like copper, he looks like a profiteer, and he pretends to be an extraordinary man. I feel disgusted when I see him. If his elder brother Qin Tieliu goes back 20 years, I can still think about it." Situ Yu Frost was even more dismissive.

"Sister, I have convinced you. You can't do it with literature, you can't do it with martial arts, and you can't do it with literature and martial arts. The few I mentioned don't seem to be as bad as you said. They are all degraded by you." It's worthless, it seems that our empire has really found out that you are interested." Situ Lang smiled and shook his head helplessly.

"So you have been bothered." Situ Yushuang also smiled and straightened her clothes, preparing to leave.

"By the way, in terms of conditions, there is actually one person who fully meets your requirements in all aspects, and he will definitely meet your wishes." Situ Lang finally threw out the bait he carefully planned.

"Who?" Situ Yushuang, who was about to leave, asked casually.

"Li Wufeng!"

"Him?!" Situ Yushuang couldn't help being startled.

"Yes, at a young age, Li Wufeng is already one of the three major Jiedu envoys of the empire, and has been conferred the title of Marquis of Baisheng by his father. Idol, capable of both literary and martial arts, with outstanding achievements, isn't he your perfect match?!" Situ Lang said hopefully.

"Hmph, I'll fall in love with him? Ambitious, arrogant, towards Qin Muchu, a snob, not worth mentioning at all!" Situ Yushuang looked autumn frosty, and walked out after a short pause What are you thinking.

Situ Lang was very disappointed. He didn't expect his younger sister to have such a bad impression of this person, but he was not discouraged, "You haven't seen him yet, so how can you make a conclusion? Father has already called him back to the imperial capital to report on his duties." , when the time comes, I think you will have many opportunities to meet each other, maybe you are destined." A mysterious smile appeared on the corner of Situ Lang's mouth.

"Juetian, I heard that the kid in the northwest of Tanghe has been very arrogant these days." Lying on his back in a loose easy chair, the graceful middle-aged man wiped his face with the towel presented by the kneeling maid , put it back on the tray, and waved them away.

"Well, I noticed it too. I didn't expect that this kid would dare to send troops to Luzon to share a spoonful of the pie. It is indeed a bit unexpected." Lei Juetian, the Minister of State of the Machi Khanate with a serious face, also frowned.

"Didn't it mean that he and the surrounding Luobei people and people from the Western Regions were very unhappy, why did he dare to send troops south?" The middle-aged man was naturally Bixili, the Great Khan of the Macchi Khanate.

"Our intelligence is still not accurate enough. Li Wufeng actually sacrificed the interests of the Western Regions to please the Luobei people. By the way, the Luobei people also restrained the Western Regions. He took the opportunity to send troops to Luzon , kill two birds with one stone, and the future generations are formidable." Lei Juetian was quite touched, and at the same time felt the pressure.

"Our intelligence network there needs to be strengthened. It seems that you are right. This guy will become a stumbling block for us sooner or later. We have to plan ahead and make some necessary preparations. Once the time is right, we have to do it. " Bi Xili also sensed Li Wufeng's danger, and there was a gloomy chill on his face.

"Khan doesn't have to worry too much. At least for now, he has no direct conflict of interest with us. Maybe at some point we will have the same interests for the same goal." Although Lei Juetian was also a little worried, but He knew that after all, it was a matter of the future, and the priority now was not to consider Li Wufeng.

"You mean that he will also set his target on the Tanghe Empire?" Bi Xili knew everything, and his brown eyes showed interest.

"This is not surprising. Which of the Sanjiang Lin family and Tian Nanlang family is not planning on the Tanghe Empire? As for the surrounding countries, there are more, including us." Lei Juetian said lightly, without any hint I feel that something is wrong, "The strong survive and the weak are eliminated. This is the way this world is. No morals and axioms are worthless. Might is the truth. Although this sentence is not completely correct, it is still correct at least in many times in this era. Li Wufeng is ambitious, once he has the strength to compete in the Central Plains, what do you think he will think?"

"The fat of the declining Tanghe Empire is so tempting. Everyone wants to take a bite. It seems that we have to hurry up." Bi Xili turned his gaze to the north, with a longing look on his face.

"What Khan said is right, so we need to step up our reserves. Now the situation in Ankun City and Jameello area has basically calmed down, and our policy of pacifying the people has also achieved good results, and everything is going on step by step. On the right track, the next step is to attack the Yuejing people~IndoMTL.com~Lei Juetian's eyes flashed like a leopard.

"Really? Do you think the time is ripe?" Bi Xili also became excited. The Yuejing Kingdom is already under the siege of the Machi Khanate. Tanghe people's reaction.

"It's almost there, and we can't wait any longer. The Tanghe people have been paralyzed by our friendly performance, and they are not prepared. In addition, we are not attacking their homeland. Even if their central troops want to reinforce, they are still separated." Sanjiang County and Tiannan County can't react quickly. Our various materials can last for a period of time after saving over the past year, and other aspects are also fully prepared." Lei Juetian's serious face showed confidence expression.

"Well, since this is the case, our army also needs to make adjustments immediately." Bi Xili nodded without hesitation, and he always advocated a decisive decision on such important matters.

"Don't be too hasty. To prevent the enemy's intelligence department from detecting our intentions, we can do it secretly step by step. It won't take much effort to take down the Yuejing Kingdom. The main thing is to deal with the possible reactions of Tanghe people. I think one One week should be enough." Lei Juetian was still very cautious, "The Great Khan can immediately summon the generals to start deployment."

"Very well, it seems that my dream of crossing the capital is finally coming true. I agreed, and then I will invite everyone to enjoy the Yihong Lake (Note 1)." Bi Xili was full of ambition and in a good mood.

Note 1: Relying on Red Lake, a beautiful lake in Yuejing City, the capital of Yuejing, is a famous scenic spot. The lakeside area is full of red willows and red maple trees. The island is warm in winter and cool in summer, with several hot springs on it. The entire lake belongs to the royal family of Yuejing.

Merry Christmas!
