Chapter 97 The second star is you

"General Xiao has never led an army in combat, how can he rashly take over an army of 100,000 men? What's more, not all the troops in Daqu are from the Northwest Army. General Xiao is a female, so he may not be able to convince the public!"

These words directly poked Qu Emperor's lungs in the chest, and he was short of directly saying that the Northwest Army was the property of the Xiao family.

Why was Xiao Hongfan able to take over the Northwest Army with just a small amount of merit? Wasn't it because her surname was Xiao? The inheritance of this general's position depends on his bloodline, and he is almost catching up with him for the throne.

Emperor Qu actually wanted to send Xiao Hongfan to the battlefield to make a big mistake and slap those who supported the Xiao family in the face, but the battlefield was not a child's play. He had expanded the territory since he succeeded to the throne, and had decided on many wars. Obviously, he was not a An emperor who can't tell the difference between importance and importance.

"What do you think, two prime ministers?" Emperor Qu looked at the two veterans in front of him.

Most of the prime ministers of other countries were civil servants, but the two prime ministers of Qu State were both born in the military, and they were rare all-around civil and military talents.

Chen Jizhi, the left prime minister, is tall and strong, with gray beard and hair in his sixties, but still as powerful as a lion. Liu Shuji, the right prime minister, is thin and gaunt. At first glance, he looks like an ordinary scholar, but his eyes are exquisite. , Eagles watch and wolves watch.

Emperor Qu, who had the two qualities of a lion on the left and a wolf on the right, looked like a fair and pure scholar. However, it was known to the world that he had led an army in battle when he was still a prince. He was by no means as weak as he seemed.

Chen Jizhi said: "I think it is better to ask Marquis Yunxiang to make a divination."

Zuo Xiang had a good personal relationship with Xiao Hongfan's grandfather, and his answer was both surprising and not so surprising.

Emperor Qu's expression was calm and showed no emotion: "Does the right minister also think so?"

Liu Shuji cupped his hands and said, "It doesn't have to be like this! There are also people with military backgrounds in the court. If you really can't choose one, I may still be old, but I can still fight!"

"I am willing to fight!"

"I am willing to fight!"

All the ministers with military backgrounds in the palace stood up to express their loyalty.

Chen Jizhi also followed the trend and said: "Old minister, I am also willing to fight!"

These are all ministers of the humerus, and they can indeed go to the battlefield, but each of them has an important position. The left prime minister is in charge of central internal affairs and is indispensable for the operation of the country. The right prime minister is responsible for rear strategy and foreign negotiations, and cannot rush to the front line. The Minister of War is responsible for the deployment of troops, food and grass, etc...

Emperor Qu looked around and found that all of them seemed suitable, but none of them seemed suitable.

Moreover, whether it is rushing from the capital to the battlefield or gathering an army of 100,000, it will take ten days and a half. Looking at the menacing attack of Xu State, if it takes so long, the fourteen southwest states will fall!

After some final discussion, the left minister of the Ministry of War was ordered to take over the post of commander-in-chief of the southwest. Before the arrival of the army, the southwest army would still defend the city.

In addition, Emperor Qu also issued another order: Xiao Hongfan was ordered to immediately rush to the Southwest Army to wait for instructions.

Before the left minister of the Ministry of War went to the battlefield, the pressure doubled.

He had not led an army in a war for more than ten years. This time Xu State suddenly attacked the city and the army was hastily assembled. He was ordered to do so at the critical moment. Before he went out to fight, there was a substitute behind him, and she was a woman who had never led an army. If the attack was not successful, she would be killed. If she competed, she would be nailed to the pillar of shame for the rest of her life!
……

"The stars have changed." Bai Shuangxing frowned and made calculations quickly.

Shi Xuanying and others sat in a row on the stone steps in the courtyard, looking up at the stars in the sky.

Jiang Chuixing lowered his voice and said, "Which one is the general?"

Bai Shuangxing had pointed out the location of the general star to them just now, but after sitting in the courtyard for more than an hour, he didn't know whether it was because the stars had moved around or because his eyes were blurred, but Jiang Chuixing found that he could no longer find the location at all. , that one is also similar.

"That one." Shi Xuanying pointed to him.

Dongfang Zhentian stared at the star for a long time: "They all look the same, can you tell the difference?"

Shi Xuanying thought to herself: If I could understand, could I still be in a daze with you two?
The three of them all looked at the figure in the courtyard at the same time.

The Taoist priest is wearing a black white-collar robe, with a long body and a jade-like body. One arm is bent around the fly whisk, the other hand is wrapped with Buddhist beads, and the palm is placed on the chest. The tail of the gray hair behind him is picked up and fell down by the wind.

In the blink of an eye, the gray at the end of the hair spread upwards.

Bai Shuangxing raised his eyes and glanced at the general star again: "There is a war in the southwest, and the general star will flourish when there is a battle. The second star has appeared, but..."

Shi Xuanying noticed the solemnity in his tone and couldn't help but ask: "Is there something wrong with the second star?" "The second star is red and flickers on and off." Bai Shuangxing turned around, "I can't see more. ”

Jiang Chuixing said anxiously: "How could you not see it?"

Bai Shuangxing spread his hands: "After all, I'm just a medical practitioner."

"Ah, Taoist Master, are you a medical practitioner?" Dongfang Zhentian said in surprise.

"Didn't I say that?" Bai Shuangxing recalled it, and it seemed that he really hadn't said it. It was Shi Xuanying who said that they lacked a medical cultivator, "In short, I am just a medical cultivator."

"Oh." Dongfang Zhentian suddenly remembered something, "Tian Tongmen, surnamed Bai, medical practitioner... Pharmacist Bai?!"

Shi Xuanying smiled curiously and said: "Hey, I just pulled it casually, and a celebrity came out!"

Before he finished speaking, Dongfang Zhentian suddenly rushed out.

Bai Shuangxing flew back two feet and wrapped his whisk around her wrist. His voice was still clear and gentle: "Young Master Dongfang, is there some misunderstanding?"

Shi Xuanying looked at the stalemate between the two with her chin in her hands, and said softly: "If you have anything to do, sit down and talk about it. We'll fight after you finish talking."

Dongfang Zhentian stopped with a hiss: "Sazi Medical Cultivator, he is obviously a killer bandit!"

Shi Xuanying carefully looked at Bai Shuangxing again and saw that his inner breath was soft and healing. It was indeed the breath of a medical practitioner. She rarely made mistakes, but Dongfang Zhentian's demeanor did not seem to be fake.

"Guo Baiyao is dead in Tiantongmen (Baiyaoshi). He is so elusive that he squats near Guoda Trading Company and robs the pioneers who returned to the first floor." Dongfang Zhentian said angrily, "Labour and management almost fell into the trap once!"

This angry look doesn't look like a close call.

"Young Master Dongfang misunderstood. 'Bai Shuang Xing' is just my false identity in Baidi." Bai Shuang Xing explained calmly.

Dongfang Zhentian looked at his harmless appearance and couldn't help scratching his head: "Admit your mistake?"

For a moment just now, she had a vague feeling that this person was Yaoshi Bai...

Dongfang Zhentian had self-doubt, but Shi Xuanying was sure that there was something wrong with Bai Shuangxing.

Thoughts move first, words arrive later. In other words, Dongfang Zhentian's "crow's mouth" is connected with her thoughts. It may seem like she talks casually, but in fact, her consciousness must feel something first every time. Because her thoughts were so fast, she might not even notice it herself.

She just felt that Bai Shuangxing was Bai Yaoshi, and she took action without hesitation, so there was a high probability that this person was him.

However, Shi Xuanying was not in a hurry to expose it.

Their goals and Bai Shuangxing's are just not in conflict for the time being. The cooperation between the two parties is not reliable. Bai Shuangxing is still useful for now. If he is unwilling to confess, Shi Xuanying will not force him to admit it.

Shi Xuanying said: "Whether he is or not. I am very curious about the Bai Yaoshi you are talking about. Why don't you tell me about it?"

"Spicy fruit turtle son!" Dongfang Zhentian didn't even say anything about this person, but he started to curse and say "immortal banban".

Bai Shuangxing raised his head and stared at the faint red second star in the sky, his heart still.

However, someone was not calm.

"Hahahaha! Since the second star has been revealed, it is better to get rid of the second star first!" Qu Shan was in a good mood and did not notice the strange expressions of several stargazers. "Have you ever observed the identity of the second star?"

After hearing this, several people looked up at him.

There was silence in the hall for a moment.

Qu Shan frowned: "What do you think I do?"

"Uh..." A stargazer tugged at his small beard with a tangled expression, "I, I think it might be you."

There was a clang, and the tea cup broke into several petals on the ground. Qu Shan rubbed his ears: "What did you say? I didn't hear clearly."
