And most of the time, she would even be discussing the conditions with the generals of the so-called Duan Chengxuan.

Some of them said that they were already familiar with the place and that it would be useless if they went to other places. Some even said that their wives and daughters were weak and sickly. If they travelled for a long distance, they might lose half their lives.

Although they wanted to give up forty percent of the military power, they still needed to persuade them to surrender. This was truly a headache.

At this moment, Duan Chengxuan was sitting on the main seat and carrying a cup of tea in his hand. He didn't care about the ruckus within the tent.

"This is not a derogatory act. I just hope that you can serve under the other princes. You will always be Navy Tide's soldiers." Both of Gu Danyan's hands were on the table. His body leaned forward slightly, and a rare look of patience could be seen on his face.

"We only serve King Jing." Someone slapped the table in dissatisfaction.

Duan Chengxuan raised his eyebrows, and he saw Gu Pingyan fold her arms in front of her chest. One of her hands had a headache as she held it to her forehead and replied, "The more you all say this, the faster you'll die. "When any prince ascends to the throne, as long as you remain loyal to the Jing King, the future emperor will view you old officials as a thorn in his side. After a few decades, you will all be beaten into the heavenly prison."

"Nonsense! "We all have accomplishments in our lives. Even if the new emperor were to ascend to the throne, he would still be able to …"

"Of course he can push you to the entrance of the market and behead you. Simply say what corruption your clan members have done, or how they disrespected the emperor for being so meritorious. If he wants to kill you all, he will have no reason to do so." Gu Liuyan interrupted him and sighed heavily: "We're only discussing it now. We haven't decided who the emperor will be yet, so let's give up for now and talk about the relationship between the families first …"

At this point, many generals kept their mouths shut, as if their weak points had been poked.

At this moment, Duan Chengxuan's eyes were slightly narrowed, and he finally put down the empty cup in his hand. He looked at Gu Daiyan who was still flipping through the document in his hand and said, "Let's call it a day."

"With me here today, no one will be able to protect them. Even if the Third Prince doesn't mind, I will still hand over the evidence to your royal brother one by one." Gu Danyan looked up at him and threatened, "The Emperor knows about their corruption like the back of his hand, but you only know about teaching them how to fight. There are only thirteen cities in total, and your subordinates can only send twenty people.

"Why only send twenty people!"

"This old man is still not old yet!"

Listening to the generals chattering loudly, Gu Danyan only felt it was a big deal and only waited for Duan Cheng Xuan's cold eyes to calm them down. Only then did Gu Danyan continue speaking, "Truly an Elementary Scholar meeting a soldier is unreasonable, but in any case, it's just a sentence. If you don't want to wait for your family to be expropriated, you can start working with your tail between your legs!"

"You little girl …"

"You even have an antique!" Gu Daiyan slammed the table. Her gentle voice suddenly rose a few notches higher. Even Hong Xiao, who was listening beside her, nearly dropped the sweet potato in his hand and could only look on helplessly.

The old general's face paled, but Gu Pingyan merely let out a heavy breath and said, "Currently, the princes are trying to win over the military connections. Since the Emperor is interested in promoting the Third Prince to Crown Prince, he will naturally pave the way for the Third Prince. And the one who will bear the brunt of the attack is Duan Chengxuan … King Jing was a powerful soldier under his command. Apart from you, there are still seventy percent of the officers in the Navy Tide Nation who listen to his commands. As long as you two exist, the new Emperor will not be able to ascend the throne. "Rather than being forced to return to their hometowns and farm, it would be better for them to join the rebel faction …"

"We will not betray King Jing!"

"But what she said makes some sense. If we want to be loyal to the Jing King, we don't need to put it on our lips …"

Finally, a few people reacted. Only then did Gu Tinyan calm down and continue talking.

These officers had been under Duan Chengxuan's protection for too long, and it just so happened that ten years ago, Duan Chengxuan was still a little kid who had made a meritorious appearance on the battlefield. But it just so happened that during these ten years, no matter what his soldiers did, Duan Chengxuan had to bear it all.

He didn't know what it was like before, but now, he could only carefully look at the book written down by the officers in the military camp. He was deeply moved by it.

It turned out that many people had said that the Jing King was cruel and ruthless, but that was only because he had charged his subordinates with a lot of crimes on the battlefield.

It was precisely because of his illustrious reputation that the other subordinates had not revealed their wrongdoings, whereas Duan Chengxuan never explained it to anyone else. Over time, all of the fierce reputation on the battlefield fell to him, and his merit points and achievements were the same.

As he spoke up to here, Duan Chengxuan finally stood up. As he saw Gu Danyan walking to her side while pondering, he said in a low voice, "I know how loyal you are. In the future, I won't be able to protect you, so I'll find a good place for all of you."

The soldiers didn't have the time to be moved.

Gu Liuyan slapped away the hand that Duan Cheng Xuan still wanted to place on her waist, then said without even raising her head, "What do you mean find a good place to go? Do you take me for a married daughter?" Right now, I just want to see if there are any more vacancies. You can call someone over to ask them what they want to do, whether they want to retire or continue to guard the border, to become a teacher, or to work in Sky Fire City. "

Duan Cheng Xuan rarely got disgraced in front of her subordinates, but she wasn't the least bit embarrassed. "Do you still remember Sky Flame's position?"

"I don't remember much, but I'm afraid the people in the imperial court have already been wiped out by Meng Xu, or it would be better if you used your own men to be at ease." "In addition, as long as you're willing to let go of this matter, I'll naturally go and speak with the Third Prince." As Gu Liuyan said this, she raised her head to look at Duan Chengxuan and said, "The family fortune that I helped you purchase before has yet to return. In these two years, you should obediently go back to the imperial court and not let the Third Prince sit on it so quickly.

"I know this. If you go to the third prince's place, you can also recommend a few of my youths to you."

"I have." Gu Danyan wrote down this matter in his booklet and then looked at the generals, "Masters, it is time for us to discuss the issue of corruption. If you were to confess now, we will not implicate Duan Cheng … "King Jing …"

"Just call me by my name." Duan Cheng Xuan lightly coughed twice.

"As long as it doesn't implicate him." Gu Danyan raised her hand to pat Duan Chengxuan's chest, and in the end smashed the heavy booklet onto the table under the shocked gazes of all the generals. "All of you who have been greedy for money these years are here.

The officers were all slightly dazed, but Duan Chengxuan only pursed his lips and placed his hand on Gu Pingyan's shoulder. "I think it's indeed time to punish this king's army camp."

Hong Xiao saw everything, but he could only think of one thing.

This couple was singing the same tune, which was a little too scary.
