Chapter 286 Secret Oral Instruction

"Your Majesty said, Miss Ye is giving advice on His Highness Yong this time. I hope you will keep your duty to join the army and plan generals. You will not order the soldiers without authorization. You will obey the orders of His Highness Yong and General Yan in everything. If the army passes through triumph, Miss Ye will be the number one woman in the capital and will give you another reward."

Eunuch Liu said gently about Emperor Yu's words, but this words made her feel excited when she heard Ye Ningyu's ears.

What a great Emperor Yu! The imperial edict was very loud, but there was such an oral edict in private.

He was cautious in his duties as a general in the army and was not allowed to order soldiers without authorization. The meaning of this was clearly to tell her that there were old subordinates of the Ye family army in the north, and Ye Ningyu was not allowed to contact the old subordinates of the Ye family army without authorization.

Also, the oral order specifically mentioned "women" to show the emperor's attitude. Ye Ningyu is ultimately a woman. If he wins a battle, he will have other rewards, but don't think about military merits, it is the royal family.

Ye Ningyu sneered in his heart. King Yong and Emperor Yu were indeed father and son. Before the battle was fought, the first thing he thought about was who to give military merit.

But how could Emperor Yu and King Yong know that Ye Ningyu asked to go to the border, and never wanted to gain military merits, nor would he compete with King Yong for this military merit.

However, there is one thing Emperor Yu was wrong. The former subordinate of the Ye family army was a team that Ye Yongchang led his troops for 20 years. Ye Ningyu had already made arrangements in his mind. How could Emperor Yu change her mind by just one or other decree?

In Ye Ningyu's mind, this battle was not fought for Emperor Yu. This northern border was not for King Yong.

Ye Ningyu suppressed the anger in his heart and a smile squeezed out from the corner of his mouth. "Your Majesty's oral order, Ye Ningyu remembered it."

Eunuch Liu's light looked around and then lowered his voice. "Miss Ye, you must know what Your Majesty said. However, our family cannot help but talk more. General Yan has always been loyal. This time, General Yan is the deputy general and his military position is above Miss Ye. Miss Ye should know that there is a difference between the top and the bottom and should not be disobeyed."

Ye Ningyu looked at Eunuch Liu, but his face turned out to be strange.

Yan Hua is the deputy general, and he is a general who joins the army. It is very obvious that he is the older and smaller in the military position. Ye Ningyu naturally knows it.

But Eunuch Liu said this deliberately, obviously not aimlessly. I guess Emperor Yu explained something to Yan Hua, and it must be related to him.

Ye Ningyu immediately understood and bowed deeply to Eunuch Liu. "Thank you for your advice, Ye Ningyu will not forget your great kindness."

Eunuch Liu looked at Ye Ningyu's clear appearance, nodded slightly, and raised the volume. "Since that's the case, our family will feel at ease."

Seeing that the two of them had finished speaking, Jiang came over and greeted him with a smile. "Thank you for your hard work, please go to Zhengtang to use some tea and snacks."

Eunuch Liu hurriedly said, "Thank you, Mrs. Duke! Our family has to go to other places to pass the imperial edict, so we won't leave much. I hope that the Lord Jinwen will retreat to the enemy as soon as possible and win the victory."

"Seeing the auspicious words of my father-in-law." Ye Ning said.

Everyone in the Ye family watched Eunuch Liu leave. At the same time, the Yong Prince's Mansion and General Yan's Mansion also received an imperial edict.

The imperial edict was issued to inspire the chief general and boost the morale of the army. This was a tradition before the war, and not many people cared about it.

However, from the moment the imperial edict was received, the Ye family once again became a hot topic among the people in the capital.

This is the first time that the low-key Ye family has returned to people's attention after the death of General Ye Yongchang, Zhenbei.

The eldest daughter of the Ye family returned to the battlefield, inheriting the will of her father and protecting the tranquility of the border, also spread like wildfire in the city.

For a time, people kept coming to Ye’s house, some were giving gifts in the name of farewell, and some came to inquire about the news. Within a day, it was crowded.

Gu Zhen'er also came to see Ye Ningyu with her son. Her eyes were red and she said she envied Ye Ningyu's courage. If she had not married and had children, she would go out with Ye Ningyu to guard the place where their father once defended. Now, she, a general, is confined to the back house to take care of her husband and children, and only hopes that Miss Ye will show off her style of being a general again.

After listening to Ye Ningyu, he felt sad again.

However, many high-ranking families who sent matchmakers to Ye’s house to inquire about the marriage between Daughter Ye did not come.

The mistresses frowned and were extremely worried.

"A good woman went to the border to fight. There were so many men in the military camp, and it was not good to be famous after it was spread."

"If someone is injured on the battlefield, will it affect the childbirth in the future?"

"I heard that she went to the palace and asked to go to war. If she had become her daughter-in-law in the future, it would be difficult to control."

"Your Majesty personally issued an order, and I'm afraid that Miss Ye is very arrogant..."

After some thoughts, the mistresses of each family made a decision: Miss Ye acted differently from the women in the boudoir who were respectful and gentle, and was not suitable to marry into their simple innocent families, so it would be fine.

Ye Ningyu didn't know that this time he asked to go out to fight to give up many troubles in marriages for her in the future. She is now quite busy.

First of all, she needs to deal with several younger brothers at home.

Ye Anjun, Ye Anzheng, and Ye Anhuai were both on their own and heard about the big events of the morning court today. They knew that their elder sister was going to the border to fight, so the three of them took the opportunity to go back to their homes.

When the three of them met at the gate of the mansion, they looked at each other and hurried into Qiushuiyuan at the same time.

Seeing the same concerns on the faces of the three of them, Ye Ningyu was quite helpless.

She called the three of them into the house, analyzed the situation on the border carefully, and the reasons why she had to go to the war. Then, she thought of a lot of words and persuaded Ye Anzheng and Ye Anhuai to go back.

But Ye Anjun did not leave because he knew much more than the other two brothers.

"Sister, do you have any other purpose when you go to the northern border?" Ye Anjun asked when there were only the two of them left in the house.

Ye Ningyu did not hide it, "After the Battle of Gray Wolf Mountain last year, our Ye family army suffered heavy losses, and those Ye family army that had not yet been damaged were also incorporated into other military camps."

"So, Sister is going to reorganize General Ye?" Ye Anjun's face was full of surprise.

Ye Ning sighed, "Reorganizing General Ye is not easy. Emperor Yu has sent an oral order today to let me be at peace with myself. Emperor Yu has been afraid of the Ye family for a long time. Even if my father is gone, my Ye family is still on the edge of the knife."

Ye Anjun clenched his fists tightly. "No emperor's mind!"

Ye Ningyu put away his heavy expression and smiled. "The more he does this, the more he fears me, the more he fears me, the more he fears the old subordinates of the Ye family. You have also seen that even if our Ye family has never made any progress in these days, his fear of us will not disappear. Ajun, the crisis of the Ye family has not been eliminated."

"Sister, this move is too dangerous. Yan Hua is the emperor's confidant. He will definitely stare at Sister in the north."

Ye Ningyu nodded. I guess this was the task assigned by Emperor Yu to Yan Hua. "I have made some arrangements in the northern border before, and this time I went there was not completely unprepared. Don't worry, I have a sense of responsibility."

Ye Anjun sighed, looking quite disappointed.

"What's wrong?" Ye Ningyu asked.

"If I had been able to join the Ministry of War successfully, maybe I could have been with my sister this time, and I wouldn't have let my sister do such a dangerous thing alone."

Ye Ningyu patted Ye Anjun on the shoulder, and his voice was as relaxed and gentle as possible. "Your mission is not in the northern border. I went there for at least two months and for as long as half a year. The situation in the capital is changing, and my sister still needs you to stay in the court."
