Border Cook

"The commander of the wing is wrong." Lu Qiyan said with a smile, "We should not add too much wood to the fire, but also add a little water. Otherwise, the fire will burn too big and it will seem a bit deliberate."

Preparation for war is originally the business of the military camp, and outsiders should not know about it, so as to be able to catch the enemy by surprise and attack them when they are unprepared.

If all the rumors were leaked out, it would arouse the suspicion of Jin Weiguo's spies.

It would be better to send people out to pretend to suppress the rumors, giving the spies of Jin Weiguo the impression that the military camp does not want such rumors to spread widely, so that Jin Weiguo will not become overly vigilant because of this.

In this way, Jin Weiguo will definitely believe in this matter and will naturally treat it seriously.

"Well said!" Fan Honghui nodded repeatedly.

Doing the opposite adds to the realism!

Fan Honghui agreed with this plan very much, and couldn't help but praise it, "As expected of Commander Lu, he can actually think of such a method."

"You are too kind, Commander." Lu Qiyan said with a smile, "I just heard you sighing about this and suddenly thought of this idea."

A sudden inspiration can best reflect a person's wisdom and adaptability.

I have to say that Lu Qiyan is indeed an extremely smart person.

Fan Honghui couldn't help but sigh, "I might as well say something from the bottom of my heart in front of Commander Lu. I'm suddenly a little glad that Commander Lu was not a member of the An family."

Otherwise, with Lu Qiyan's ability to strategize, I'm afraid he would be played around by the time.

"Since the commander is willing to speak his mind, I also have something in my mind that I want to explain to him." Lu Qiyan said with a smile.

"Oh?" Fan Honghui became interested. "Then tell me what's in your heart."

Lu Qiyan touched his nose, the light in his eyes dim and unclear, "To be exact, there are two things, one good and one bad. Which one do you want to hear, Commander?"

Why does speaking from the heart involve good things and bad things?

After thinking for a moment, Fan Honghui said, "Then... tell me the bad things first?"

"Lu Qiyan is my real name, and I have another name."

"what name?"

"Warm encounter."

Fan Honghui, "..."

Wen Yu, a member of the Wen family.

As the Wen family is an aristocratic family, they attach great importance to the respect of seniority. The descendants of the Wen family are ranked according to their generations, and all of them have two-character names.

Anyone with the surname Wen, or a single character in his name, is the adopted son of the Wen family.

"This name..." Fan Honghui paused, frowning slightly, "When did you get it?"

"Seven years ago." Lu Qiyan answered truthfully.

In other words, before Lu Qiyan joined the army, he was already the adopted son of the Wen family.

His appearance in the Western Frontier Army must have been arranged by the Wen family, probably in order to win over the An family, expand the power of the Wen family, and influence the selection of the crown prince.

We can even think about it in a bigger picture. With what Lu Qiyan did in the Western Frontier Army, he could even replace the An family. Does that mean the Wen family's ambitions go beyond that?

Originally, he thought that he had found a capable helper and even met a confidant in the Western Frontier Army, but he never thought...

"This is indeed a bad thing." Fan Honghui sighed.

With this identity, he had to think more and be on guard against many things. But...

"Then tell me, what is the good thing you just mentioned?" Fan Honghui held on to the last glimmer of hope.

"I prefer, to be more precise, to have the surname Lu, only Lu." Lu Qiyan said word by word.

Upon hearing this, Fan Honghui pursed his lips.

This clearly shows one's thoughts and attitude.

To take a step back, the fact that Lu Qiyan took the initiative to explain and state his position was enough to show that Lu Qiyan trusted him as the commander of the wing.

Lu Qiyan treated him as a confidant.

Moreover, adopted sons and adoptive fathers are mostly due to benefits. Some people take the initiative to recognize adoptive fathers, while others take the initiative to recognize adopted sons. It is very common.

Take Xia Yunji for example. An Leiting was impressed by his bravery and fighting skills. He wanted Xia Yunji to work for him, so he gave him an honorary position and hoped that he would be loyal to the An family.

As for Lu Qiyan...

"Do you have any relatives in the Wen family?" Fan Honghui asked with a frown.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

Lu Qiyan is smart and has great ambitions, and his character is upright. Fan Honghui knows all of this clearly in their daily contacts. Such a person cannot be tied down by interests.

The only thing that can bind us together is family love.

"I still have a younger sister." Lu Qiyan told the truth.

Is it?

Fan Honghui was a little surprised by this title, but he didn't want to delve too much into other people's family affairs, so he just sighed and said, "So what are you going to do next?"

Being controlled by others is the most painful thing.

"Now I am in a high position in the army, and the Wen family is afraid of me and dare not do anything." Lu Qiyan said, "And the Wen family now thinks they can completely control me, and now they hope that I will have unlimited glory in the army and hold great power, so that when the eldest prince fights for the position of crown prince, I can help him, and when the eldest prince succeeds to the throne, I can completely control the government."

"So, the Wen family is not interfering with me at this time, and I am free to do whatever I want in the army without any interference."

"Next, it's my wife's side. Fortunately, she is familiar with Madam He. Now Madam Fan is also with my wife. The Wen family is only worried that my wife may have an unknown identity or background, so they dare not act rashly for the time being."

"What I need to do now is to make Jin Weiguo ask for peace."

If he could accomplish this, it would be a great achievement for Lu Qiyan, and he would be famous all over the world. The emperor would definitely reward him according to his merits. At that time, Lu Qiyan would be in great glory and receive great favor from the emperor.

With military merits under his belt and being the center of public attention, even if the Wen family wanted something, they dared not be too blatant and could only proceed quietly. At the same time, they were afraid that they would lose everything and gain nothing for their good chess pieces, so they did not dare to make excessive threats.

There will be enough time to deal with things that happen later.

"Yeah." Fan Honghui nodded, "That's right."

"But I still want to ask you, why are you willing to confess to me and tell me the truth?"

"After all, the truth will come to light. Rather than letting the commander find out the clues later, it is better for me to take the initiative to confess now. Maybe I can still maintain my friendship with the commander."

Lu Qiyan paused and said, "Besides, I believe that the commander of the wing can distinguish between good and evil, and he is a person with great ambitions like me."

The latter part of the sentence sounds a bit flattering and complimenting.

But these were Lu Qiyan's true words.

It was during the time he spent with Fan Honghui in the army that Lu Qiyan saw that Fan Honghui was a man of good character, loyal to his country and loyal to his emperor. (End of this chapter)
