Chapter 66: Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world
In the winter of the nineteenth year of Emperor Jing of the Yan State, war broke out between Yan and Chu.
February of the 20th year of Emperor Jingdi
"Princess, no good, we have been defeated again." Yuan'er's voice came again.
Shangguan Feng'er had just received another letter from Zixuan and had learned the news. "Yes, I know." She put down the letter and rubbed her temples.
Since the war between Yan and Chu started last winter, the Yan Kingdom has been defeated steadily.
Regarding the reasons, there are three points that have to be said: First, the Chu State has continuously annexed surrounding countries in recent years, so it is in a state of war all year round, and its soldiers have strong combat capabilities;
Secondly, Yan State has been in a state of ease for a long time, and its soldiers' combat capabilities are relatively weak;
Third, the Yan State is in the temperate zone, and most soldiers cannot adapt to the cold climate of the northwest.
"Princess, what do you think we should do?" Yuan'er saw that Shangguan Feng'er was calm, and she had a sad face, her brows were almost squeezed together, and she was still mumbling, "If the Fourth Prince is here, I will
Okay, you can go to the front line to help the Second Prince and General Liu."
Shangguan Feng'er also frowned tightly. Yes, if Shangguan Chen was here, things would be much easier to handle. However, after Shangguan Chen got married, he went on a so-called honeymoon with Liu Shishi and broke up with her.
I have lost contact with you, but I don’t know where I am now.
"What should I do?" The Yan State was already at a disadvantage. Now that it has been defeated since the beginning of the campaign, it has never won a victory, and its morale is getting lower and lower. If this continues, the fate of the Yan State is uncertain.
Ming. As a woman, no matter how capable she is, she can only stay in the deep palace.
Thinking of this, Shangguan Feng'er smiled bitterly. Although she was not a feminist in her previous life, she always advocated equality between men and women. Unexpectedly, she was now like the women of this era, who kept herself in captivity and believed that women were inferior to men. It was really
ridiculous.
"Besides, my life is not long. I have always wanted to repay the kindness of my father, the emperor, and my mother and concubine over the years. Now it seems that I have found it. Although I cannot control the fate of the Yan Kingdom in the future, I will fight with God no matter what.
"Shangguan Feng'er is proud and stubborn.
Although fate has played tricks on her time and time again, she has been defeated time and time again. Even if she knows that the road ahead is failure, she still has to fight against fate to the end. Even if she is defeated repeatedly, she has to fight again and never give up easily.
Therefore, Shangguan Feng'er's pride and stubbornness determined her choice - she would go to the front line in the last period of her life.

Shangguan Feng'er picked up the white chess piece and put it on the chessboard, "Father, let's see how my daughter plans to attack the east and attack the west." She defeated the emperor again in this game.
"Feng'er's chess skills are getting better and better." Emperor Yan Shangguan Bu smiled happily, but in his heart he was worried about the future: this time the Yan Kingdom was defeated again, and if this continues, there may be a national disaster.
Shangguan Feng'er could see through the worry in Emperor Yan's eyes, "Father, can you tell your daughter the story of Empress Bingji?"
Lady Bingji is the current patron saint of the Yan Kingdom, so every household in the Yan Kingdom, regardless of gender, old or young, knows this history: Hundreds of years ago, when the Yasi continent was still divided into four parts, the Western Chu, Eastern Chu, and Qi in the north
The states unite to attack Yan.
The Yan State was weak and suffered defeats one after another. At this moment, the Queen of the Yan Emperor, Bing Ji, stood up and went to the front line as a woman. She used her cleverness and wit to finally defeat the Three Kingdoms Alliance and defend her homeland.
"Feng'er, do you want to go to the front line?" Emperor Yan Shangguan Bu naturally knew what Shangguan Feng'er was thinking: Today she played chess with him. During the chess game, she kept using some tricks to remind himself, so he guessed that she was going to
What did you do?
"Father, please grant me permission." Shangguan Feng'er knelt down and begged.
"How do you ask your father to fulfill your promise? Even if your father agrees, will your mother and concubine agree?" How could Emperor Yan Shangguanbu let his daughter go to the battlefield?
"Father, every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. My daughter and the emperor's brother are both my father's children and subjects of the Yan State. It is our duty to protect the Yan State. Why are they both the father's children and the Yan State's subjects?"
, but we must treat it differently; besides, the Chu State's invasion of our country was mainly caused by me, so my daughter cannot sit back and wait for death and ask her father for permission." Shangguan Feng'er's attitude was sincere and decisive.
Shangguan Bu sighed deeply. He knew that even if he rejected her today, with her intelligence, it would be nothing to her no matter how closely he looked at her. "Hi, that's all."
"Thank you, Father, Father is the best." Shangguan Feng'er stood up overjoyed and hugged Emperor Yan tightly.
"Girl, my father really doesn't want you to go." Shangguan Bu touched Shangguan Feng'er's head, feeling reluctant to leave.
"A gentleman's words are hard to follow, not to mention that my father is the emperor. How can the emperor go back on his words?" Shangguan Feng'er pretended to be naughty and said, and then leaned her head on Shangguan Bu's arms, her face full of deepness and the previous moment.
His playfulness was totally different from the other two. Doctor Jiang's words came to mind again, maybe this time he would never come back once he left.
