Chapter 319 - Ambition
"That's right. Although those soldiers and generals are wearing armor and clothing from Dong Chu, some of them have extremely strange hairstyles. I thought about it carefully and I think they are most likely from the Southern Chu Kingdom." She remembered that she had seen one of Gu Qinghong's followers before, so it should not be wrong to have such a hairstyle.
Song Yunli's words made Feng Muyan's heart tremble. It seemed that Gu Liuqing had the ambition to conquer the entire continent a long time ago, otherwise he would not have taken such pains to cultivate his own power in various countries. If what Chu Yuhuan had said before about the rebellion of the border generals was true, then he could be sure that many officials in the Dongchu court had been replaced by Gu Liuqing's people.
"Amu, what do you think about this matter?"
"Li'er, it will not be easy for Dongchu to win this battle. You must be mentally prepared." Feng Muyan said, pressing her shoulder.
"how you said that?"
"I suspect that there are many of Gu Liuqing's people in the court of Dongchu. We can help him fight this war, but it is impossible for us to help him sort out the complicated court." Seeing her anxiety and uneasiness, Feng Muyan simply explained his concerns.
Song Yunli was stunned. The soldiers of the Eastern Chu Kingdom were quite strong and had a large number of troops. Logically, defending the border should not be a problem. The strange thing was that the generals suddenly rebelled.
But those generals were carefully selected by Chu Yuhuan, so how could they suddenly turn against him?
"Li'er, have you never thought that the general who defected was not a general of the Eastern Chu Kingdom at all?" Feng Muyan reminded him at the right time.
Song Yunli suddenly remembered the last time Lu He and Gu Qinghong disguised themselves and entered the cell. Could it be that Amu meant that the general had already died or was captured by Gu Liuqing, and then his people disguised themselves and replaced him?
Seeing her surprised expression, Feng Muyan smiled knowingly. His Li'er was really insightful and could understand many complicated things with just a little hint.
"If that's the case, won't many officials in Nanyue also be replaced?" Song Yunli asked worriedly.
"Li'er, do you think it's so easy to imitate someone? If you want to imitate someone lifelike, you must first look very similar in appearance. This step will screen out many people. Then you have to stay dormant beside the person you are imitating for a long time, and finally get rid of the person you are imitating. Although these processes sound simple, in order to truly replace the person without any mistakes, a person must be trained for at least five years." Feng Muyan explained with a frown.
"It's not that simple...that Nanyue..." Song Yunli spoke hesitantly.
"Nanyue has been experiencing political turmoil in recent years. The replacement of civil and military officials is sometimes faster than changing wives. Moreover, Shen Junyang and Feng Jinheng only trust their own masters. Gu Liuqing should have seen this clearly, so his strategy for Nanyue is to start a war directly."
Suddenly a cold wind blew in, and Song Yunli couldn't help but lean into Feng Muyan's arms again.
Suddenly I recalled the scene of drinking and writing poetry with Gu Liuqing many years ago. Now that I think about it carefully, most of his poems express his longing for this continent.
"My benefactor! There is another person blocking our way outside, and this time it's a big and handsome man!" Xing'er's voice sounded again.
Song Yunli's mouth froze. In Xing'er's eyes, no matter whether a man was beautiful or ugly, as long as he was taller than her, he was a big man! Just now, she called Amu a scarred big man...
Feng Muyan slowly opened the curtain. Who else could it be but Chu Yuhuan who had an unhappy face outside the carriage? Why would he follow him if he wasn't exploring the way ahead?
Chu Yuhuan looked at the two people who were in love, and couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile. These two people showed off on the battlefield, this was intolerable.
"Feng Muyan, you led your troops into battle and ended up falling on a beauty's lap?" Chu Yuhuan said coldly.
