Aunt Chen is back from the world of cultivation

With her current level of cultivation, it is not impossible for her to wipe them all out on her own, but it will take a long time.

It would be fine if they concentrated their attacks, but if they scattered and caused chaos, the harm to ordinary people would be immeasurable.

Controlling the world not only means power, but also comes with responsibility.

She was once a member of the lower class people, and she deeply understood that the people's calls of "God" were full of yearning for a life without hunger and cold, without war, and where they could live and work in peace and contentment.

She carries the hopes of countless ordinary people.

She couldn't let her people be destroyed by the falling rocks of the dynasty.

The general situation of the world is in Chen Qingzhu's mind.

Judging from the current situation, the most urgent issues that need to be resolved are the Hu people in the north and the Liaodong Army.

The Hu tribe is now strong in both men and horses. If it were not for the Wei Dynasty's defenses of the natural barrier, it would have been impossible to keep the Hu tribe in the northeast for more than a decade.

Now that the Wei Dynasty has just collapsed and the Du'e Army has not yet established a firm foothold, it is a perfect opportunity for the Hu people to take advantage of the situation.

As it turned out, Chen Qingzhu's prediction was exactly right.

As soon as he returned to the palace, Hui'an came to report the military situation on the northeastern Hu battlefield.

The Hu tribe took advantage of the fact that Wei was suffering a crushing defeat at the hands of the Du'e army and launched a fierce attack on the northeastern border city.

In just these two days, the Liaodong Regional Military Prefecture had already been lost.

Most of the defenders of Liaodong City retreated southward to Guangning Prefecture.

Guangning Prefecture is located to the north of Yongning Prefecture, very close to the capital. Once the news of the fall of the Wei Dynasty spreads, the Liaodong defenders will be leaderless and the morale of the army will be in chaos.

The Hu people will most likely take advantage of the victory and pursue them immediately.

At that time, whether the Liaodong Army surrendered to the enemy or fled, it would cause great disaster to the people along the way.

After Chen Qingzhu pondered for a moment, he ordered Hui'an:

"Huian, immediately find a trustworthy general under your command and go to Guangning Prefecture to recruit the Liaodong Army to resist the Hu people."

The imperial guards in the capital had not yet been fully incorporated, and she had originally planned to let Hui'an continue this task.

Unexpectedly, Hui'an, who always obeyed Chen Qingzhu's orders, hesitated to speak.

"What?" Chen Qingzhu was puzzled.

Hui'an's hesitant look quickly turned into determination.

She knelt down solemnly and pleaded:

"God, I want to personally lead the troops to Guangning Prefecture."

Chen Qingzhu looked at her expression and felt that there must be a reason.

Hui An did not hide anything and said frankly:

"The former Liaodong General Meng Yuping is my father."

The Meng family has guarded the northeastern border for generations. Meng Yuping was particularly ambitious and rose from a hereditary captain to the general of Liaodong.

But after Emperor Yong'an took power, Meng Yuping, who was promoted by the Empress Dowager's party, became a thorn in the side of those in power.

The withholding of military pay and armaments and the delay in sending reinforcements caused Meng Yuping to lose Jianzhou City during an attack by the Hu tribe.

Even if Meng Yuping escaped by chance, he would still become a sinner.

The entire family was executed.

At that time, Hui'an escaped the disaster as a married woman.

However, the status of a married woman in her husband's family largely depends on the prosperity or decline of her natal family.

Especially someone like Hui'an, who married a subordinate who was promoted by her father.

Her failure to conceive for many years had already made her husband's family very unhappy. Now that her own family was in decline, how could she have a good ending in her husband's family?

In order to distance himself from the criminal Meng family, her ex-husband sent her to Jingci Temple on the pretext that she was seriously ill.

Not long after, it was announced that she had died of illness in Jingci Nunnery.

Afterwards, he married the daughter of the imperial party as his wife.

Unfortunately, her heartless ex-husband was sent to Qin Province to quell a rebellion before she could take revenge, and he died of tetanus.

Now that she was sending troops to Liaodong, she wanted to lead the troops herself in order to wash away the shame that the Meng family had suffered in the past and to comfort the spirits of her father and brother in heaven.

Chen Qingzhu didn't know the specific reason, but since the Liaodong border army had a history with Hui'an, and it was rare for her to take the initiative to make requests, there was naturally no reason for her to stop it.

"In that case, you can lead the troops yourself, and recruit the imperial guards from the capital and arrange for other personnel."

Hui'an showed a rare look of joy on his face:

"Thank you, God!"

Then he left the imperial study at a swift pace.

Not long after Hui'an left, Yan Rong came again.

Chen Qingzhu happened to have something to discuss with him, so he asked someone to call him in.

She thought Yan Rong came to see her for something important, so she waited for him to speak first.

Sure enough, after Yan Rong saluted, he immediately said:

"God, I didn't have time to report to you earlier that Emperor Yong'an took Second Master Pei hostage. After I rescued him, I allowed Second Master Pei to stay temporarily in my house to keep him safe."

Only then did Chen Qingzhu confirm that Pei Xuan was still alive.

To be honest, although she felt that Pei Xuan's performance in the past two years was a bit stupid and he couldn't see the situation clearly, her opinion had improved slightly.

At least, he no longer blamed the world or his parents, and knew that he had to work hard.

But now the situation has changed again, as her son, he has unlimited possibilities in his identity.

This kind of knowing effort and stupidity combined can easily lead to greater disaster.

Therefore, her test of him was far from over.
