Chapter 194 The Last Edict
Lu Chaofeng fell silent.
In the tent, only the charcoal fire was crackling.
Li Shanqi clenched his fists again and again, and just when he was about to go berserk and hit someone, Lu Chaofeng took a step towards him.
He walked around Li Shanqi's huge desk, came to his side, lowered his voice and spoke for a long time.
Su Chengnan witnessed Li Shanqi's expression with his own eyes, which changed from curiosity to shock, then from shock to anger, and finally anger turned into sadness, and then silently turned into a sigh.
"The pain of Yong State!" Li Shanqi's voice revealed helplessness and sadness.
"We still need to think about this matter carefully! We must not be careless!"
Li Shanqi's attitude is almost the same as Su Weimin's.
Su Chengnan didn't understand why they were like this? !
What about the ripple effect? What about the royal dignity and honor? It's all bullshit!
She only saw that the people were now displaced and countless farmers had been forced to lose their families. These things should not be their responsibility. If the emperor of Yong could actively prepare for war! If the queen mother could put aside her selfishness and not focus on consolidating her own power and status, would the White Bear Kingdom still be so rampant?
It's not that there's no gunpowder, and it's not that we can't make cannons! Talents like Mr. Sun can definitely be put to good use!
such a pity……
What a pity...
Lu Chaofeng retreated back to Su Chengnan's side. He stood with his hands behind his back, turned to look at Li Shanqi and said, "The Beining Army can relieve the difficulties of Beiling and Dayong. Now we just need a legitimate reason to march south! And we can also restore order!"
Li Shanqi's eyes slowly widened, and then gradually calmed down. A bitter smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Do you think the Xiao family will give you this opportunity? There are witnesses and evidence, how can you say it easily?!" His words revealed a deep helplessness towards reality.
"Think carefully, is there anyone capable of solving this massive case? How could anyone dare to solve it? Forget solving it, I'm afraid they wouldn't even dare to discuss it!"
Su Chengnan disagreed. She took a step forward and said sternly, "The people of the world have many opinions! Moreover, this world belongs to the people. If there are no people, how can the stage of the imperial city be built? And who will it be for? General Li, why don't you think about it first? Family, country, and the world. What is family, and what is country?"
"The people are displaced, their families are broken and their souls are gone! Without homes, is this country still a country? Dayong has laws, and laws are not just for show. The laws clearly state the rules! If this doesn't work out, then the will of the people of the world will not count. Justice is in the hearts of the people!"
"You two ignorant kids are so naive!" Li Shanqi slammed the table, his brows trembling with anger.
Su Chengnan argued, "If the general loses the morale of his troops before the battle and loses the trust of all his soldiers, do you think the war can still be fought? Will they still listen to you?"
"You..." Li Shanqi was choked by Su Chengnan's words and was speechless for a moment.
"How can this be compared? I have always led my troops in a united and united way!"
Su Chengnan was about to argue, but Lu Chaofeng quietly grabbed her arm. She turned around, and Lu Chaofeng smiled at her and said, "Uncle, there is no need to say more. I understand what you are worried about!"
"But what I want to say is that your worries are unnecessary, because..."
Su Chengnan laughed softly. Yes! Li Shanqi's worries were unnecessary, because Lu Chaofeng would definitely come out with a good reputation! There was no need for anyone else to judge this matter, because the late emperor's will clearly stated it!
Lu Chaofeng walked over to Su Chengnan and stood shoulder to shoulder with her. Then he turned on his toes and looked at her and said, "Miss Su, what was the imperial edict that the late emperor bestowed when he privately summoned the Marquis of Xiaoyong?"
"Ok?"
Li Shanqi suddenly understood.
He slammed the table, stood up, strode up to Su Chengnan, and said impatiently: "Niece, do you know about this imperial decree? You said there was a way before, but was it this?"
Su Chengnan was overshadowed by Li Shanqi's burly figure. She took a step back, keeping a distance of one meter from him, then smiled slightly and nodded.
"I know." Her voice was calm and firm.
"Ah? You really know it! Then tell me quickly!" Li Shanqi urged anxiously.
"But..." Su Chengnan raised his eyes, smiled at Li Shanqi and blinked, "General Li, can you make me a promise?"
"As long as it's useful! Not to mention one promise, even ten will do!" There was a hint of urgency in Li Shanqi's voice.
"Chengnan is not greedy. Ten promises would be of a different nature. I only need one!"
"Okay, okay, one by one, you go ahead!" Li Shanqi rubbed his head anxiously. Su Chengnan said, "I hope the general can lend me fifty men to escort us to Ningguta, and help me write a letter to the leader of Ningguta, saying that the Su family wants to settle there!"
"Okay, no problem!" Li Shanqi's voice contained a hint of relief.
"Okay!" Su Chengnan was very satisfied.
She slowly took out the bright yellow imperial edict from her sleeve. Li Shanqi couldn't wait to take it. When he saw it, he was shocked!
"This..." His voice trembled and he was unable to speak.
He could only stuff it into Lu Chaofeng's hand.
Lu Chaofeng took it, looked at the contents, took a deep breath, and bowed deeply to Su Chengnan...
"Thank you, Miss Su. This will is truly of great importance to us... In the future, I will never forget the Su family's kindness!"
"I hope that after the Ningyuan Palace incident is completed, my father's reputation can be cleared! He must not be splashed with any dirty water, and I want to settle the previous account clearly!" There was a hint of determination in Su Chengnan's voice.
"No problem!" Lu Chaofeng promised.
Su Chengnan lowered his eyes and continued, "This imperial edict is our trump card and Dayong's hope. I believe we must act with caution to ensure its safety."
"Miss Su is absolutely right. This matter is of great importance and we need to discuss it carefully." Li Shanqi nodded.
"First, we must ensure that the imperial edict does not fall into the hands of others. Secondly, we must find the right opportunity and use the edict to gather heroes from all over the world! Get everyone's support!" Su Chengnan added.
"Anan, don't worry, I will definitely handle it properly!"
A flicker of determination flashed in Lu Chaofeng's eyes. He raised his finger and said, "Today, I, Lu Chaofeng, swear here that I will clear the name of Su Weimin, the Marquis of Valor, and will protect the safety of the Su family! In the future, I will not only restore the glory of the Su family!"
"No need to say more, I believe you!" Su Chengnan said.
In fact, Lu Chaofeng still had something in his heart that he hadn't said. He really wanted to tell her that he would definitely treat her well!
