The next day, after Cuiguo woke up, washed up and had her meal, Su Peisheng came in with a smile to announce the decree.

Cuiguo just sat there with a big smile on her face. Su Peisheng twitched his lips but didn't say anything.

Su Peisheng opened the imperial edict and began to read: "The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims: Li Cuiguo was born with supernatural powers, and is hereby granted the post of a second-rank military general. He is to immediately go to the southwest to take up his post, and obey the orders of the Southwest Commander Nian Gengyao. I decree this."

After hearing the imperial edict, Cui Guo asked, "How much is the monthly salary for a general who has made military achievements?"

Su Peisheng's mouth twitched even more, but he still replied: "General, the salary of a second-rank official is fifty-three taels of silver, the candles, charcoal, and vegetables are provided with seventy-two taels of silver, and the red paper is provided with one hundred and eight taels of silver."

Cuiguo counted and found that she had more than Concubine Qi.

After thinking about it, Cuiguo reached out to take the imperial edict and said, "Let me say goodbye to my family before I set off."

Su Peisheng immediately replied: "The general's family is already waiting in the side hall."

Cui Guo glanced at Su Peisheng, who hunched his back a little more and said, "It's really because the war in the southwest is tense right now, so we asked the general to set off earlier."

Cuiguo hummed and said, "Then you go out. I'll change my clothes."

Su Peisheng agreed and went out with his men.

Cuiguo locked the door and opened the bed.

After finding the silver ingots and silver bills from the secret compartment and putting them into the bag, he began to change his clothes.

Arriving at the side hall, the three members of the Li family sat there trembling with fear.

When Li's mother saw Cuiguo, she immediately said, "Son."

Cuiguo glanced at Su Peisheng, and Su Peisheng led his people out again.

Cuiguo didn't say much, and just said to Li's father and mother: "My daughter suddenly gained supernatural powers. She will serve in the army in the future. Dad and mother, please take good care of yourself."

After saying that, Cuiguo took out five silver ingots and gave them to Li's mother.

Before Li's mother could recover, Li's father asked, "How are you going to get married in the future if you are a girl in the army?"

Cuiguo did not reply to Li's father's words, but said to her brother Li Yanling: "You must study hard. When I make achievements in the future, I will also find a way to support you."

Li Yanling was a little worried about Cuiguo, but still replied: "Don't worry, elder sister. My brother will study hard and take care of our parents. Please be careful, as long as everyone is safe, nothing else matters."

Cuiguo nodded and said to the three people, "You can go back. I will come back after winning the battle and bring honor to our family in the future."

Mother Li said with tears in her eyes: "You must not be stubborn."

After seeing the three people off, Cuiguo followed Su Peisheng out of the palace.

After traveling all the way through mountains and rivers to the southwest, Nian Gengyao wanted to give Cuiguo a warning.

Cuiguo was so tired from sitting in the carriage that she was about to fall apart. She was annoyed by Nian Gengyao's non-stop nagging, so she slapped the horse that was grazing next to Nian Gengyao and sent it flying into the sky.

The entire army was silent until Cuiguo moved into the tent, and then there were sounds from outside.

When I woke up, it was already early the next morning.

Nian Gengyao immediately took Cuiguo with him to fight. Cuiguo did not know how to ride a horse, so she had to sit in front of Nian Gengyao.

The enemy soldiers cursed: "Nian Gengyao, you bring a woman to the battlefield."

When the general saw that Cuiguo was a woman, he wanted to pierce Cuiguo's head with his spear.

As a result, Cuiguo grabbed the spear and threw the man into the sky with a wave of her hand.

Our army immediately rushed forward to assassinate, but the enemy was shocked by Cui Guo and each of them looked up at the sky with their mouths open.

By the time I came to my senses, the war was over.

This time, Nian Gengyao was sincerely convinced and regarded Cuiguo as a good comrade rather than a woman who came through the backdoor.
