I embezzled 100,000 taels at the beginning, and the empress begged me to be more greedy

"I'm glad you're okay."

Chen Qingyun murmured.

Having said that, this way of fighting was definitely not what the empress expected.

But Chen Qingyun was quite surprised to hear that Jiang Zuo was outnumbered again. If all the Six Towns Army were handed over to Jiang Zuo's command, would the result be different?

Jiang Zuo sighed and said, "I'm fine, but I feel so sad for the brothers who sacrificed their lives!"

Chen Qingyun remained silent, thinking about his next plan.

At this time, Jiang Zuo stomped his feet again and said, "I'm so angry that I want to rebel!"

Hearing this, Chen Qingyun was shocked.

The reason why she sent the Six Garrison Army to Anding County was to intimidate Jiang Zuo and prevent him from rebelling. Unexpectedly, it has backfired and she was forced into a corner by Jiang Zuo.

"Calm down, don't have such thoughts..."

Chen Qingyun hurriedly persuaded.

After all, the combat effectiveness of the Anding County army led by Jiang Zuo was quite amazing. If he really rebelled, it would definitely pose a great threat to the Dayan army.

"Siyue, since the emperor has appointed me as the General of Zhenbei, why did he send so many people to monitor me? Sigh!"

Jiang Zuo was quite displeased.

Chen Qingyun raised her eyebrows, knowing that Jiang Zuo was dissatisfied with this arrangement, but she was always suspicious by nature, so she said calmly: "Perhaps His Majesty just wants the Six Towns Army to come and assist you."

Jiang Zuo was still angry and sighed, "As long as these guys don't make things worse, we'll be thankful. They still call themselves the elite of the Northern Border Court. Bah!"

Seeing Jiang Zuo so excited, Chen Qingyun suddenly didn't know how to calm him down.

Jiang Zuo continued chattering.

"I don't know what that woman is thinking. She wants to use me, but she also doubts me, as if she's afraid that I'll take her throne. What a weird-tempered bitch."

Jiang Zuo's emotions are now out of control. He has lost his usual calmness. Facing Miss Siyue, he can't help but speak out.

Chen Qingyun narrowed her eyes, and her beautiful face showed a meaningful expression.

Jiang Zuo, you...

I have a weird temper?

I may be angry, but why are you scolding me like that?

After hearing Jiang Zuo's complaints, Chen Qingyun also began to feel a little angry.

"Jiang Zuo, are you going to seize the throne?"

Chen Qingyun said in a low voice.

"What are you trying to rob? I have no intention of rebelling."

Jiang Zuo shook his head helplessly.

"Didn't you just say you were so angry that you wanted to rebel?"

"It was just an angry remark."

"really?"

Chen Qingyun looked at Jiang Zuo's face.

Jiang Zuo turned his head and stared into Chen Qingyun's eyes. His emotions calmed down a lot and he said, "Rebellion is too risky. You know my character. I just want to do business well and I am not interested in power. If the emperor asks me to provide disaster relief, then I will go. If he asks me to drive the barbarians north, I will obey. Even after all this, I still can't get the emperor's trust. This job is meaningless..."

Chen Qingyun knew for sure about Jiang Zuo's loyalty.

But Anding County hides so many secret weapons, it is hard for Chen Qingyun to believe that Jiang Zuo has no intention of rebellion.

Chen Qingyun said: "Is there a possibility that the Six Towns Army discovered that you were hiding armor and then informed the emperor. After all, hiding armor is a capital crime. The emperor did not kill you, which was already merciful."

"I hid the armor to protect Anding County, not to rebel."

Jiang Zuo explained.

Chen Qingyun was slightly moved. Knowing that Jiang Zuo rarely lied to her about her identity as "Siyue", she asked doubtfully, "Tell me the truth, is it really like this?"

"If I rebel, I will become a traitor and how can I marry you, Siyue, in the future?"

Jiang Zuo answered seriously.

Chen Qingyun: “…”

She was stunned, totally unsure of how to respond.

It seems that Jiang Zuo is serious!

However, Chen Qingyun approached Jiang Zuo just to find out his background, but he fell in love with him unknowingly.

Chen Qingyun thought to himself: "I am the empress!"

It seems that it is time to confess my identity to Jiang Zuo...

Since Jiang Zuo really had no intention of rebelling and was willing to serve the country, there was no need for Chen Qingyun to hide it any further.

"Jiang Zuo, actually my identity is..."

Chen Qingyun said this, but suddenly stopped, as if he had something to hide.

She hesitated.

If she reveals her identity, will she still be able to get along with Jiang Zuo so closely and naturally in the future?

Obviously, there is a difference between the ruler and his subjects.

"Your identity?"

Jiang Zuo was slightly puzzled. He looked at Chen Qingyun's rather tangled face and said, "I know your identity."

"You, do you know..."

Chen Qingyun was stunned.

"Actually, you are..."

Jiang Zuo opened his mouth to speak, but at this moment, he suddenly heard someone shouting not far behind him.

"Miss."

Following the sound, I saw Qiuyue coming over with a letter in her hand. She walked to Chen Qingyun with an anxious look, and then looked at Jiang Zuo with a strange look.

Jiang Zuo understood and said goodbye to Miss Siyue, "It seems that you have something urgent to do, so I won't bother you. I have to go back to the government office anyway."

After Jiang Zuo left, Qiuyue whispered, "Miss, urgent news from the front line."

Chen Qingyun nodded expressionlessly. She had already learned everything from Jiang Zuo.

She returned to her room and opened the secret letter.

It was a handwritten letter from Yan Kang, the governor-general of the Six Garrisons.

"During the battle of Deep Valley, due to poor coordination with the Anding Army, we missed the opportunity to fight. Our Six Towns Army suffered about 20,000 casualties, but we also killed 20,000 enemy bandits. It's a pity that we were unable to complete the encirclement and annihilation of the Northern Barbarians. Your Majesty, please forgive us. The Six Towns Army will definitely take the initiative to attack and search for the main force of the Northern Barbarians to eliminate the threat in the north. Please rest assured, Your Majesty!"

Because of poor coordination with the Anding Army? Are the Six Towns Army trying to shift the blame to Jiang Zuo?

Outrageous.

It was clearly their incompetence. If Jiang Zuo hadn't saved the situation, they would have suffered an even more miserable defeat.

Chen Qingyun did not believe the contents of this memorial.

As the head of the Six Garrison Army, Yan Kang would definitely be glorified.

Chen Qingyun even suspected that their casualties were far more than 20,000, and it was impossible for them to kill 20,000 Northern Barbarians.

Before this, didn’t they say that there were only 30,000 Northern Barbarians?

If we could kill 20,000 people, it would definitely be a great victory worth showing off, and it would be impossible to use this tone of apology.

The Six Garrison Armies had been confronting the Northern Barbarians for so many years, but had never been able to destroy their main force.

Chen Qingyun even suspected that the Six Garrison Army was nurturing the enemy to protect itself.

You know, Jiangzuo’s battle record in the past few days far exceeds the achievements of the Six Towns Army in the previous few months.

What else can this group of military generals and ministers do except deceiving their superiors and subordinates?

Chen Qingyun was furious at this moment.

Since your Six Garrison Army is incompetent, just ignore me and I will withdraw you.

She picked up the pen and wrote an imperial edict.

"Send it the day after tomorrow to avoid suspicion."

She instructed Qiuyue.

From this moment on, Chen Qingyun has chosen to believe Jiang Zuo.

Jiang Zuo's performance was completely beyond her expectations.

If the main force of the Six Garrisons Army was handed over to Jiangzuo, he would definitely be able to achieve something.

Chen Qingyun was looking forward to it...
