Chapter 346 Someone is making up a rumor about us!
In response to Empress Ying Yue's question, Li Changsheng answered casually.
"Of course Qingying's swordsmanship is superior!"
However, Ying Yue didn't believe it.
"You are already a Heavenly Grandmaster now. You won't lose to Qingying, right?"
Li Changsheng: "..."
Seeing that the empress was still trying to sow discord, I really wanted to give her a scolding.
"Your Majesty, Qingying and I were just sparring, there was no winner or loser!"
After saying this, he quickly changed the subject without waiting for the empress to ask further questions.
"By the way, Your Majesty, I heard someone is making up a rumor about us?"
Ying Yue asked with great interest, "What is Huang Yao?"
Li Changsheng took out Qingying, handed him the letter with the rumor on it, and said, "This is Huang Yao!"
Ying Yue asked: "What do you think about these?"
Li Changsheng organized his thoughts and briefly recounted the results of his discussion with Qingying.
After listening to Li Changsheng's story, Ying Yue fell into deep thought.
After a long time, the dimples began to spin.
"You mean to say that the mastermind behind this Huang Yao is most likely the general?"
Li Changsheng considered his words in his mind and said, "I can only say that this is a possibility. Whether it is true or not requires further verification!"
Ying Yue said: "Well, I'll leave this matter to you to verify!"
"Besides that, I have a very important task for you to do!"
Li Changsheng asked: "What mission?"
Ying Yue said: "I plan to add another guard horse on the basis of the twelve guards of Dawu!"
"I intend to let you do this!"
Li Changsheng was surprised to hear that the empress wanted him to recruit soldiers.
This means that he may be promoted to a local lord.
If I can defeat General Xiao Tiangui in the future, I can replace him and become a new upstart in the army!
Seeing Li Changsheng standing there in a daze, Ying Yue asked, "Why, don't you have confidence?"
Seeing the wise and sharp eyes of the empress, Li Changsheng couldn't help but shudder in his heart.
The empress is suspicious by nature and cannot trust anyone.
She had just asked about the results of the competition between herself and Qingying, obviously testing how far their relationship had developed.
Now, such an important task of recruiting soldiers has suddenly been entrusted to me.
There must be something fishy going on here!
Or, is the empress trying to test whether she has ambitions to get involved in military power?
Or, she just wants to step onto the stage and fight with General Xiao Tiangui?
No matter which possibility it is, the final result will probably not be very good.
Damn, this empress must have dug a sinkhole, waiting for me to jump in!
"Li Changsheng, I'm asking you a question. Are you deaf?"
Seeing that Li Changsheng was slow to respond, Ying Yue looked a little displeased.
Li Changsheng came back to his senses and said carefully, "Your Majesty, I know very little about military affairs. I am afraid that I will fail to live up to your trust in recruiting soldiers!"
Ying Yue said, "It doesn't matter. If you really mess it up, just be more careful in your next life!"
Li Changsheng: "..."
When he heard this damn empress asking him to be more careful in his next life, he wanted to curse.
Seeing that the empress was determined to force the issue, Li Changsheng had no choice but to bite the bullet and take on this hot potato.
When Ying Yue saw that Li Changsheng agreed, she smiled with relief.
"Let's call this new army the Tiance Guard. You will be the commander-in-chief and be fully responsible for coordinating all affairs!"
Li Changsheng: "..."
Tiance Guard?
Then I am going to become the general of Tiance!
"Your Majesty, I have another request!"
Ying Yue asked: "What request?"
Li Changsheng said, "I want to select 500 battle-hardened veterans from the Longxiong Guard, as well as some grassroots generals, to serve as the backbone of the new army!"
After hearing Li Changsheng's request, Ying Yue immediately nodded in agreement.
"Okay, but I also have a request!"
Li Changsheng was stunned when he heard this.
I was thinking, why are you still bargaining with me?
"What else does Your Majesty request?"
Ying Yue said: "I will give you one year to make the Tiance Guard as elite as the Tiger Wing Guard!"
Li Changsheng: "..."
Taking the Tiger Wing Guards as a reference target, it seems that the Empress really wants to take action against the general!
After all, the Tiger Wing Guards are the direct descendants of the general and the foundation of the entire Xiao family!
……
After Li Changsheng left, Qingying took the initiative to speak.
"Are you planning to use Li Changsheng to contain Xiao Tiangui?"
Ying Yue asked back: "Do you think he can't do it?"
Qingying fell silent after hearing this.
If it were anyone else, Qingying didn't think he could do it.
But if this person is Li Changsheng.
That's another matter.
However, in just half a year, the miracles created by Li Changsheng have far exceeded the imagination of many people.
Just as Qingying was thinking about this, the empress's cold voice sounded again.
"Princess Tuan was hidden by that bastard, right?"
Qingying asked, "Should we bring Princess Tuan back?"
Ying Yue waved her hands and said, "Forget it. Bringing her back will just send her to the cold palace. It will be a waste of food. Let her go!"
Qingying was somewhat surprised to hear the empress's arrangement.
However, she didn't say anything about it.
Ying Yue seemed to have seen through Qingying's thoughts and asked casually, "Qingying, how far has your relationship with Li Changsheng progressed?"
When Qingying heard the empress suddenly change the topic to herself, her expression was slightly startled.
"My relationship with him is pure and innocent!"
Ying Yue said, "Is there no close contact as it says?"
"How is that possible? My toad blood is still there!"
In order to prove that what she said was true, Qingying deliberately rolled up her sleeves to reveal the toad's blood on her snow-white arms.
Looking at Qingying's toad blood, Yingyue subconsciously looked at the same position on his arm.
Her virginity had been taken away by Li Changsheng while she was in a confused state.
The toad sand will naturally disappear with the first bleeding.
Seeing that the situation was a bit awkward, Qingying took the initiative to change the subject.
This time she no longer called Ying Yue "Your Majesty", but called her by her nickname like she did when she was a child.
"Yue'er, Li Changsheng is such a genius in martial arts, yet you still want him to control the military. Aren't you afraid that once he gains a foothold, he'll completely lose control, or even become the master?"
Ying Yue was silent for a long time before he slowly uttered a word.
"I am a little scared!"
Qingying never expected that she, the extremely proud Yue'er, would actually admit that she was "afraid" of that bastard.
"Yue'er, if that's the case, then why did you give him the military power?"
Ying Yue said: "Because I have no choice now!"
Qingying was confused and asked doubtfully, "No choice?"
Ying Yue glanced at the topographic map of Jiuzhou, stared at it for a long time, and then sighed with regret.
"Alas, now the mountains and rivers of Dawu are broken, and Jiuzhou is falling apart. It's simply impossible for the two of us sisters to hold on alone."
"If we want to restore order and free the people from suffering from war, we can only rely on Li Changsheng!"
"Let's not talk about the other things for now. If it weren't for Li Changsheng's planning, we would still be hindered by the Queen Mother and Jiang Kuanglong, fighting openly and secretly!"
"Perhaps, they have already become prisoners of King Zhao and suffered humiliation..."
Qingying was deeply shocked when she heard the empress's true feelings.
She was silent for a long time, then said, "Yue'er, if Li Changsheng wants to become Jiang Kuanglong, Xiao Tiangui, or even the King of Zhao in the future, what should we do?"
Ying Yue said calmly: "He won't!"
Qingying was puzzled and asked, "Why?"
Ying Yue said, "Because he wants so much, he looks down on the likes of Jiang Kuanglong, Xiao Tiangui, and King Zhao!"
Qingying was a little confused after hearing this.
"Yue'er, what do you think Li Changsheng wants?"
Ying Yue said, "Li Changsheng has already publicly stated that he has four major wishes in this life."
"I wish to establish a mind for heaven and earth, a destiny for the people, carry on the lost knowledge of the ancient sages, and bring peace to the world for all eternity!"
When reciting these four sentences, Ying Yue's tone unconsciously became heroic.
Qingying naturally knew these four sentences, but she had already labeled Li Changsheng a liar in her heart.
Therefore, people do not believe that such a playboy with a romantic nature and a liar who tells lies with his eyes open can have such lofty ideals. They just think that he is deceiving the world.
"Yue'er, what if Li Changsheng is a fraud who is trying to deceive the world and steal the reputation? He uses these high-sounding words to cover up his ambitions?"
Ying Yue looked back at the dragon throne.
The bloodstains left on it by King Zhao had been wiped clean long ago, leaving it spotless.
But the blood left in her heart can never be wiped away in this lifetime.
"Then I must have been blind and misjudged him. When the time comes, I will chop off his thing with my own hands and feed it to the dogs!"
Seeing that Yue'er had regained her former dominance, Qingying excitedly agreed.
"Okay, chop it up and feed it to the dog!"
