Chapter 78: I Can't Learn Anything

"Song Er is just a sickly man after all and will never achieve great things. His Majesty will not allow Song Er to enter the court. But the same cannot be said for Lin Liu." The Dali Temple Minister is an experienced person. He has been in the officialdom for many years. There are some things that Song Shiqiu cannot hide even if he wants to.

What's more, the road was paved too obviously, it was almost as if they directly said that Lin Liu's backer was the Prime Minister's Mansion.

"Father," Xi Lilong wanted to say that she knew, but she suddenly remembered the pair of eyes that Lin Jin had when he looked at her. It seemed that there was never any worry in them. He did whatever he wanted without any worries. "Father, I want to go to the border."

No one in their Xi family had ever produced a military general, but her generation became an exception. But unfortunately, she, Xi Lilong, was a girl.

She has been practicing sword and stick martial arts since she was young. Even though her father did not hire someone to teach her, she was able to learn it well just by watching from the side when she was a child. She even defeated her brother who was five years older than her. In the beginning, her family did not pay much attention to her behavior.

Because she had an older sister who was proficient in literature and writing, until her sister unfortunately died of smallpox, she was asked to take over her sister's burden and was trained by her family to become a so-called talented woman.

"Nonsense!" The face of the Dali Temple Minister changed drastically, and he grabbed the teacup and threw it at Xi Lilong's feet, "Have you forgotten that you are a girl, going to the border? How could you think of that! Even if you were a man, do you think your mediocre kung fu is enough for the border? The border is a place where people are eaten, not a place for fun, it will be bloody, if your sword or gun is slightly slower than the other side, it will be your head that falls!"

Xi Lilong looked at his father stubbornly: "Is it because my kung fu is not good enough, or does father have other plans? I have been familiar with the art of war since I was young, and my kung fu is not bad, so why can't I go?"

"Why are you going? What girl would go to the battlefield? What men are wolves who will tear you apart and eat you, do you understand?" The Dali Temple Minister's face turned red with anger, not understanding why he had not been able to change Xi Lilong's temper for so many years.

"Yuanyang Army, since His Majesty has already established a women's army, why can't I go?" Xi Lilong's eyes have never been so bright. Since His Majesty has established the Yuanyang Army, it means that His Majesty is not opposed to women joining the army. "If they can, why can't I!"

The Dali Temple official was horrified: "How did you know about the Yuanyang Army?" Upon closer inspection, his teeth were still chattering, and he was angry, "Did your brother tell you?"

"So father knew about it a long time ago, but just didn't want me to leave, right?" Xi Lilong was still doubting the authenticity of the Yuanyang Army, but now he saw that it was real. "There are 3,000 women in the Yuanyang Army, why can't I be in it?"

"What do you know? It sounds good to say that Daxia has the first female army, but what do you think they can do at the border? Who will listen to them except their own people? What is needed in a war is the cooperation of various armies. One person alone cannot make a boat. If you go, you will just die!" The Dali Temple Minister waved his sleeves, "If you mention it again, I will apply family rules now. If you are stubborn, I think you don't need to go to the Women's Academy. Stay at home and wait for your marriage!"

"Does father have to do this?" Xi Lilong wanted to say that she was not afraid of death, she just didn't want to be trapped in this house. She was tired of the intrigues in the backyard, and she didn't want to interfere in the deceitful court. She just wanted to go to the border, even if she died it would be a worthy death.

"Fool, you have never seen a military camp. Joining the army is not as simple and easy as you think." The Dali Temple official waved his hand, "Go back to your courtyard and reflect on your mistakes. When you have thought it through, go to the Women's Academy to continue your studies tomorrow. I will pretend that nothing happened today, but if you are stubborn, I will send another daughter to the Women's Academy. If you don't like it, there will be many people who are jealous."

The light in Xi Lilong's eyes completely went out.

Thinking back, Xi Lilong looked at Lin Jin in front of him and said, "Maybe you can do it."

Do the things she wanted to do but couldn't do.

"Do what?" Lin Jin tilted his head, not understanding what Xi Lilong meant.

"It's nothing. Do you want to learn? If you do, I will teach you. If you encounter danger one day, you can protect yourself. If you feel tired, then forget it." Xi Lilong just felt depressed, but if she taught Lin Jin, she would be relieved if Lin Jin did it in the future.

But if Lin Jin refused, she would never bring it up again.

Lin Jin looked embarrassed. To be honest, she was actually a little tempted: "But sister, do you know how much I have to learn every day now?"

She really can't find the time, so she can drop out of school. Then she will have time.

"Then forget it." Seeing her like this, Xi Lilong didn't force her.

"And most importantly, I believe you can do it, sister." Lin Jin held her face in her hands. Now she looked at Xi Lilong with an unconscious idol filter. After all, the other party might become a female soldier. "Don't be sad, sister."

In the later period, it seemed that a female general appeared in Daxia. The general was promoted step by step, married the god of war Su Chengan in the book, settled in the border, and guarded the territory of Daxia all her life.

Moreover, the appearance of that general also gave the women of Daxia an additional way of life. From the first female civil official of Daxia to the appearance of female military generals, women of this era were finally no longer confined to the backyard.

It seems that the emperor is not so stupid and incompetent. Why does the emperor behave like a puppet of Song Shiqiu in the book?

"I'm not sad." Xi Lilong refused to admit it.

Lin Jin nodded quickly: "Then I must have seen it wrong. Sister, a woman as cool as you will definitely not be sad because of such a small matter."

In fact, she could guess the reason. According to the laws of this era, Xi Lilong must have wanted to join the army but his parents did not agree, otherwise it would never have been like this. However, the achievements of the female general later on would slap those old stubborn people in the face.

Xi Lilong's father is the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple. In the book, the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple has always been an honest official and a royalist. Since the emperor has decided to change, the Chief Justice of the Dali Temple will definitely support it. If Xi Lilong wanted to join the army at that time, he would definitely not stop him.

"Be quiet. I don't know why you talk so much all day long." Xi Lilong turned his face away and faced Lin Jin with his back.

Lin Jin shrugged indifferently. She just wanted to comfort Xi Lilong. Since Xi Lilong was fine, then forget it.

But soon Lin Jin thought of something else. She poked Xi Lilong's waist and said, "Sister, let me ask you something. You are so good at archery. How many stones can you use for your bow? How many steps can you shoot? Can you shoot three arrows at the same time? And make them all hit the bull's eye?"

Xi Lilong looked at Lin Jin in confusion: "Why are you asking this?"

"I'm curious, so I wanted to ask." Lin Jin wanted to know who was more powerful, Xi Lilong or the future female general.

Xi Lilong just pressed the corners of his lips and said, "I won't tell you."

"Oh, sister, tell me." Lin Jin quickly acted like a spoiled child, and thought of a possibility, "Sister, you are not very strong, so you don't want others to know, right?"

Xi Lilong: “…”

Lin Jin covered her mouth, unable to believe it: "Really? Then sister, you..."

"You think too much. I just used an ordinary bow and arrow. As for the one bow and three arrows you mentioned, my archery skills are not that good." Xi Lilong pressed his eyes, "Why are you asking these questions?"

Lin Jin smiled embarrassedly: "Nothing."

You can't say that this is a comparison of who is more powerful, Xi Lilong or the female general. That would be a bit too much.

"It's weird. I don't know how Song Er can stand you." Xi Lilong finally couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

Lin Jin pursed her lips in grievance and whispered, "Sister, are you a Cancer?"

Why are you so hot and cold? I'm so sad.

"What?" Xi Lilong raised his eyebrows.

"I said I wanted to eat crabs." Lin Jin quickly said, "Sister, how long will it take before we can eat crabs?"

Xi Lilong said unhappily: "You know how to eat. There's still more than a month left and you're already craving for food."
