General Wei was a few years older than Ling Chaofeng. He was already in his early thirties, but his entire body was exuding the vigor of a youth. ”Of course, in places that should be calm and dignified, a single glance would cause a person's soul to scatter in fright. The Chuan Yu army's fame was not to be trifled with.

The first time Ling Chaofeng and him met, was when they were rushing through General Shen's tents. Then, due to a fortuitous encounter, the Empress came to an inn on his way to the capital, and after they met again, they became friends with Mo Ni.

The two of them observed for a while, after confirming that no wild beasts approached them, they sat down by the bonfire. General Wei smiled: ”I didn't expect you to get married so quickly.

Ling Chaofeng laughed: ”Fate has come. I can't help but want to grab onto it, Xiaowan and I finally succeeded after going through some tough times. The general's fame has spread far and wide. All the women in the world are willing to marry you, but fate has yet to arrive.

Wei Tengfei instead laughed loudly, shook his head and said: ”This isn't like the Manager Ling, to actually tell me what fate it is.”

Ling Chaofeng did not think so, and laughed: ”When the general's beautiful woman appears, you will naturally think so.”

”But right now … ”It's not the time for me to be in love with a girl.” Wei Tengfei's expression suddenly became serious, ”I heard that the prince of Xiluo stayed in the capital for the whole summer, he asked everywhere for my Daqi's culture, and even wanted to study my Daqi's defense military. The Emperor does not care about this and lets him do whatever he wants. Furthermore, he does not cause trouble and is a modest and courteous person, making others unable to find any weakness in him. ”

Ling Chaofeng listened quietly. Naturally, he had known about this a long time ago.

”Just what does the emperor mean? I'm just a boor, I can't figure it out.” Wei Tengfei said, ”There is a thousand miles between us and Xiluo, and we are separated by the ocean. If they really want to fight, should we go, or should they? ”Attack or defend?”

Wei Tengfei said many things and he was even more straightforward, ”You all said that the Chuanyu’s Army is infamous, but the truth is that your infamy is all with my father. After I had taken over the army, I had only swept through the bandits a few times. After I had taken over the army a few times, I had only swept through the bandits a few times. When the Emperor invades the Kingdom of Liang, he didn't bring all of my Chuanyu’s Army with him. I really can't sit still anymore, that's why I met you in the General Shen's military camp day and night.

Separated by the sea, wanting to open a new land is extremely difficult. On the other hand, in the thirty odd years that I have spent in the Daqi, I have made countless enemies. Ling Chaofeng said, ”What I, an amateur, said, might not make sense, but since there are no battles in this world, that is the true way of life for An Bangxing.”

Wei Tengfei laughed: ”If you want the world to have no wars, you can't ask outsiders to not bully us, but to request for our strength, so that they won't even have a thought.”

Ling Chaofeng said: ”His Majesty is the same as you, he has never been to the battlefield.”

The two of them smiled at each other as they understood each other.

Up until now, this enormous country had truly reached the hands of the young generation.

A thousand miles away, in the tranquil capital, within the Prince Shen’s Mansion, the study room was still lit.

Shen Qing heard that her father was still busy with official business, so she brought supper over from the kitchen and entered: ”Daddy, you're hungry, right?”

Shen Zhe put down the letter in his hands, seeing his daughter's shadow slowly approaching, he said lovingly, ”Why haven't you slept yet? This morning, I accompanied my aunt to the Temple of National Protection to burn some incense, and accompanied her for an entire day. Are you tired?”

”If I have something on my mind, I won't be able to sleep.” As Shen Qing said this, she pulled his father's hand and called him over to the table for supper.

”What is father's little Little Qing thinking about? Did she come here specifically to tell father?” Shen Zhe smiled lovingly, ”Where's your mom? Does she know? When she finds out that we don't bring her along, she'll be angry.”

Little Qing charmingly said, ”Daddy thinks of Mommy with all his heart, I'm going to get jealous.”

Shen Zhe patted the back of his daughter's hand, rolled up his sleeves and said, ”Dad, let's have supper. You take your time.”

Her daughter sat beside her and looked gently at her father, relieved to see him devouring his food.

”Is it an unhappy thing?” Shen Zhe asked again.

”I don't know …” Shen Qing lowered her eyes, lowered her heart, and said, ”Outside, it is said that Big Brother Emperor is choosing a person, and is getting along with Xiluo and that blue-eyed prince.”

Shen Zhe slightly frowned and put down the spoon.

Shen Qing asked: ”Father, did Your Majesty's big brother choose me?”
