The eldest princess is obsessed with rebellion, but there are six male protagonists

Pei Yu recommended Shen Quan because the interests of the Pei family and the eldest princess are now firmly tied together.

No one can be happy forever, and no flower can be red forever. There are so many people and things in the world, like the ebb and flow of the tide. Over the past hundreds of years, many noble families were once glorious, but were reduced to insignificant dust and lost in the long river of history.

The status of an aristocratic family is never taken for granted.

The Jiangnan Pei family has been able to be passed down from generation to generation to the present day thanks to the generations of family heads who have been able to keep a clear head and see the situation clearly in countless changing situations, and dare to give up and make decisions among many choices.

Every time, countless times, the head of the Pei family would choose the only path he believed to be the most correct, yet one on which he could not turn back, to lead his family toward prosperity or destruction.

This is the power, responsibility and obligation of the head of the household.

The head of the Pei family allowed Pei Yu to enter the game, which was to give him the opportunity and power to make decisions for the Pei family.

Pei Yu judged that if the Pei family failed to make arrangements in advance in this border trade of tea and horse, and was seized by other families, then the Pei family's dominant position in the tea industry would be completely broken.

If they stand on the right track, even a pig can fly. But if they miss this favorable wind, then within ten years, the Pei family will decline rapidly and become a second-rate family.

To deal with internal problems, we must first stabilize external territories. If the northern barbarians are not pacified, the border trade of tea and horses cannot be opened. In order to pacify the threat of the northern barbarians, General Shen must come out of retirement.

This is the decision that Pei Yu, the future head of the Pei family, made for the future of the Pei family.

But Qiao Gui obviously didn't think so. He could tolerate Pei Yu being the second assistant and hanging around in front of the emperor because the Pei family gave him one-tenth of the profits from Pei's tea mountain for the whole next year, as well as many rare antiques from the previous dynasty.

Such a large sum of money far exceeds the benefits that anyone has ever given to Qiao Gui before.

So even though Pei Yu's appointment as the Second Assistant came too suddenly, and was done without authorization later, catching Qiao Gui off guard, Qiao Gui endured it for the sake of the money.

But for the sake of money, Qiao Gui could tolerate Pei Yu being the second assistant and sharing his presence and favor in front of the emperor, but he could never tolerate General Shen coming out again.

It didn't matter whether General Shen was dead or alive. The most Qiao Gui could tolerate was him being a mascot. Qiao Gui would never give up the military power he had already obtained.

So Qiao Gui said:

"Oh, I heard that General Shen is dying. Sending a sick general as the commander-in-chief, the Northern Barbarians still think that our Great Mu Dynasty has no one. This really damages the dignity of our Great Mu Dynasty.

Moreover, when facing a powerful enemy, temporarily changing the general is a taboo in military strategy. I think the current general of Xuanfu is doing a good job. Wouldn't it be perfect to let him be the commander-in-chief on the spot?

If we suddenly replace him, the morale of the soldiers may be unsettled, which may lead to worse consequences.

If he is made the commander-in-chief, the emperor won't have to appoint anyone else, and the soldiers can focus on fighting. Isn't that the best of both worlds? "

When the emperor heard this, he thought it was perfect. If he let the general of Xuanfu be the commander-in-chief, he wouldn't have to worry about anything and wouldn't have to worry about who to choose to be the commander-in-chief. This way, he would have some free time.

You know, he has been seriously worrying about who to choose as the head coach these days.

Then the Emperor said:

"Okay, let's do it. Come on, let's go, did Fourth Uncle send another white peacock? Qiao Gui, let's go and take a look."

As a king, the emperor was hesitant to make a decision on such an important matter, which could even determine the future of the country. This delayed many opportunities for war, and then he finally made a decision, but it was so sloppy and casual.

Pei Yu looked coldly at the emperor and Qiao Gui who were hurriedly leaving. What he had seen and heard in the imperial court in the past few days once again confirmed the conclusion he had drawn based on just one memorial.

This emperor can’t do that.

An emperor can be without talent, ability, courage, or strategy, but that doesn't matter. These are things that civil and military officials should do. It is natural that the emperor cannot do them.

But there is one thing, just as the head of the family is to the clan and the monarch is to the country, no one can do it except the head of the family and the monarch.

Civil officials are good at planning, military generals are good at fighting, and the monarch must be good at making decisions.

Making decisions for national and family affairs is the only and most important thing for a monarch as a monarch. This is his unique and irreplaceable power, and it is also his obligation to the world as a monarch.

The Great Mu Dynasty is facing internal and external troubles. The northern barbarians are eyeing it covetously, and the vassal kings are harboring evil intentions. This hesitant, procrastinating, and indecisive emperor will surely lead the Great Mu Dynasty to destruction.

……

A few days after the little prince of the Northern Tartars arrived in Xinghe, he saw that there was no movement in Xuanfu. Even though General Shen was unclear about the situation, he still plucked up his courage and sent out several waves of vanguards to test the situation a few times.

After a few encounters, the little prince of the Northern Tartars found out the true identity of the general of Xuanfu. He was a complete idiot who could not fight at all.

The little prince of the Northern Tartars was really itching to leave such a big straw bag unbeaten and such a big piece of fat meat uneaten.

Moreover, it is summer now, the crops in the fields are not ripe yet, and there are no supplies that can be obtained locally. They do not bring enough food with them, and Xinghe is an empty city, so the Northern Tartar army does not have enough food.

There are only two choices before the little prince of the Northern Tartars: either return home or lead an army immediately to attack Xuanfu.

Going back home would be too cowardly and would also affect the status of the little prince of the Northern Tartars in the tribe, which is naturally inappropriate.

So even though the little prince of the Northern Tartars felt scared to the core when he thought of the scene in which General Shen chopped his father in half with an axe like cutting a melon, he still decided to overcome this deep-seated fear and choose the second option, which was to send troops to Xuanfu.

Because the soldiers of Xuanfu had been fighting in a mess for so many days and Shen Quan had not shown up, the little prince of Beilu was very suspicious and thought that perhaps Shen Quan had already died.

Those previous rumors that he was still alive might have been fake news released to deceive him.

The little prince of the Northern Tartars made a decision and without hesitation, announced immediately that from now on, the entire army would attack, flatten Xuanfu, eat and drink, and rob gold and silver.

The general of Xuanfu lived up to his reputation as a big fool. The soldiers of the little prince of the Northern Tartars had just arrived at the city and had not yet started fighting, but the general of Xuanfu quickly sent someone to send an urgent letter to the capital:

Xuancheng is in danger! Come to the rescue!

The general of Xuanfu felt really aggrieved. Why was he so unlucky? The Shen family had been here for so many years, but the Northern Tartar Army did not come. He had only been here for a few months, and the Northern Tartar Army came. His luck was too bad.

The general of Xuanfu was very clear about his position. He came here to occupy a position for the factory owner and make money. He knew nothing about fighting and could not take care of it!

After Su Fengyi received the urgent letter from Xuanfu copied by Pei Yu, she took the letter and went to find General Shen.

General Shen has recovered well and is practicing martial arts in the newly built training ground. Without the restraint of the bamboo forest, his combos are as smooth as flowing water and as powerful as a mountain and a river.

Seeing Su Fengyi coming, General Shen put away his axe and said with a smile:

"Your Highness, is it time yet?"

Su Fengyi also laughed and said:

"That's right. I would like to ask General Shen to come out and kill all the northern barbarians and protect the peace of our Great Mu country.

I want him to ensure that no northern barbarians dare to invade our borders within 30 years, General Shen, is that right?"

Speaking of fighting, General Shen changed his usual calmness and even laughed wildly:

"How dare I disobey His Highness' order? I will make sure that this little Northern barbarian boy will die without a chance to return!"
