The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented

Pei Wugou was thrilled with his brilliant move, while his deputy Chen Song was completely bewildered.

What the hell?

Should we find someone to replace him?

no……

He, Pei Wugou, is a military commander!

Find someone to replace the commander-in-chief?

Did he have an extra head? Or did the person who dared to impersonate him have an extra head?

and……

What time is it now?

You still dare to use this kind of stunt double?

He quickly advised, "My lord, you mustn't!"

"We are at war now. Ren Tianye's army has already occupied Pukou City, watching us like a tiger, and could attack at any time."

"This is precisely the time when you need to step up and stabilize morale. Replacing you with a shadowy figure... that's really not a good idea!"

Pei Wugou frowned unhappily and said, "What's wrong with it? Just consider it as me finding a shadow."

"If it gets exposed later, just say that I found someone to impersonate me so that I can free up my time to carry out more covert military activities."

There are precedents for this.

However, Vice General Chen Song still felt it was inappropriate... After all, Lord Marquis, you're not really doing this for military reasons, but for a woman, and it's just some inexplicable excuse for not being able to meet.

Then he said, "My lord, I still feel it's not suitable. You know, someone like you, with your elegant and refined appearance, is extremely hard to find."

"It's impossible to find."

"Found it, but it's barely there; it's too easy to be exposed."

"Therefore, I suggest you consider this carefully."

To persuade Pei Wugou to give up his idea, Deputy General Chen Song abandoned all pretense and began to offer insincere flattery.

This tactic is remarkably effective.

Pei Wugou burst into laughter.

My mood instantly brightened.

but……

His convictions will not waver in the slightest because of this!

He said, "Alas, I know that I cannot find anyone who looks exactly like me. However, we have tens of thousands of soldiers and tens of thousands of servants. In addition, there is the Jiangbei fortress defense line, so the number of people is countless."

"You can always find someone among these people."

"Of course, my demands are not high."

"A third of my handsomeness is enough, but any more... I doubt it."

After saying this, Pei Wugou immediately gave the order: "Alright, there's no time to lose. You shall immediately search the entire army."

"We must find someone who is even three-tenths as handsome as me!"

Deputy General Chen Xiong was in a real bind.

Not only can't I persuade them, but they're also looking for help now?

"My lord..."

Lieutenant Chen Song's voice was tinged with despair: "Now, this is really not the right time!"

"Our army has been marching for some time now, and we are about to reach the Iron Gate Pass, which is the first line of defense of the Jiangbei fortress complex."

"Soon, this will also be the first line of defense against Ren Tianye."

"Shouldn't we discuss this?"

"Once we get there, how do we appease their garrison? How do we bolster their morale? How do we deploy our forces to block Ren Tianye's army at Iron Gate Pass, giving us time to make arrangements once we reach Zhenjiang City, the core of the Jiangbei fortress complex?"

Pei Wugou pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, you're right."

Lieutenant Chen Song exclaimed in delight, "So, my lord, we won't be looking for your shadow anymore?"

"No, we have to find the shadow, we can't delay this..." Pei Wugou said, "However, the army can rest for a day and continue on after we find the shadow."

Chen Song: "..."

Before he could offer further persuasion, Pei Wugou waved his hand and said, "This matter is settled by me; there is no need for further discussion."

"If you have such skill, you'd better hurry up and find my shadow. I'm only giving you one day. If you can't find it, you'll be punished according to military law!"

"Hmph!" Pei Wugou's expression suddenly turned stern as he said, "You should know that I am known for my strict discipline in managing my troops!"

These words, spoken with an air of iron will, made Deputy General Chen Song swallow back all the words he wanted to say.

He sighed.

We can only look for the so-called shadow!

Actually, this isn't too difficult. After all, it's not the kind of stunt double that's popular in Yunjing. You don't need to make a one-to-one replica; you just need to find someone with a similar build.

Chen Song put in the effort and personally oversaw the process, finding the person in just three hours.

He made him stand there, and Pei Wugou looked him up and down, then nodded in approval: "Not bad, not bad, you actually have four-tenths of my handsomeness!"

"This is incredible!"

"This is incredible!"

"I can't believe there are people like you in this world!"

"rare!"

Pei Wugou gave it a very high evaluation.

But the figure was clearly a lowly soldier, and he was very frightened. He quickly thanked him, saying, "Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, thank you, thank you, thank you, Lord."

Pei Wugou frowned: "Stuttering?"

"That's not right!" said Lieutenant General Chen Song. "You weren't stuttering just now. Were you too nervous?"

"Yes, yes, it's too, too tight, I'm so nervous..."

"It's alright!" Pei Wugou waved his hand, indicating that it wasn't a big problem: "Anyway, you don't need to say much, you can just stand there."

After speaking, Pei Wugou also gave Vice General Chen Song a high evaluation: "Not bad, not bad, Chen Song. In such a short time, you were able to find someone who is four parts similar to me. You have put in a lot of effort."

"You're too kind, Lord Marquis." Deputy General Chen Song said, "Well, we've found the shadow. Now, shouldn't we make some arrangements for the trip to Iron Gate Pass?"

"Yes, we need to make some arrangements." Pei Wugou agreed, but his gaze involuntarily drifted towards the shadow.

As I watched...

He became sad.

"Sigh, Xiaohe and I are clearly two people who truly love each other. We are clearly under the same sky and in the same military camp, yet it feels like we are separated by the ends of the earth."

Why, why can't fate allow us, the people who love each other, to be together?

Deputy General Chen Song: "???"

Whoosh!

Pei Wugou stood up and strode out!

Lieutenant Chen Song: "My lord, where are you going?"

Pei Wugou's voice came decisively: "Go see my Xiao He."

"It has now come to my senses that the shadow has been found. I am now free. I can go to see Xiao He as your personal guard."

"Then cover your hair with a hat, perfect!"

"Between me and Xiao He, under the same sky, there's no reason why we can't be together!"

When Pei Wugou finished speaking, his deputy Chen Song could no longer hear him clearly. After all, Pei Wugou was walking very fast, and the further he went, the weaker his voice became.

This left Deputy General Chen Song completely bewildered.

"No, my lord, what about our agreement to discuss going to Iron Gate Pass?"

"Time waits for no one!"

"The military situation is dire!"

Lieutenant Chen Song stamped his foot and chased after him!

He wasn't as fast as Pei Wugou, or rather, Pei Wugou was incredibly fast, taking two steps at a time, almost flying, as he headed towards the military camp.

Then, he suddenly froze, and saw the figure that had haunted his dreams and filled his mind for only a few days.

The noise in the military camp seemed to fall silent instantly, and all the figures around faded into blurry images. In front of them was only a woman dressed as a man, holding a bunch of flowers in her fingertips.

Pei Wugou's body trembled again, and he softly called out that name.

"Xiao He!"

Wen He suddenly looked up and saw him. Her face was full of disbelief, but she did not move over immediately. She stood at a distance and looked at Pei Wugou from afar.

The entire military camp seemed to be bathed in a soft light, which fell solely on the two of them, while everything around them became mere background, leaving the two of them standing a few steps apart, gazing at each other!

Make eye contact!

Make eye contact!

A full fifteen minutes!

Deputy General Chen Song, who had been waiting for a long time, was getting impatient...

"No, are you two playing a game of freezing time here?"
