When the imperial edict was sent to Shi Lei, he was completely confused and he was really not prepared for it. However, there was not much time left for him. The so-called military situation was like fire. After the order to suppress the rebellion, he had to quickly get some clothes and gather people. He had to catch up in a few days.

Several uncles seized the time to study the content of the imperial edict and finally came to a conclusion that this trip to Lingnan is a blessing or a disaster for Shi Lei. As long as he can complete the task of suppressing the rebellion, there should be a suitable position waiting for him in the future. In fact, Li Er's intention was to let him follow and take advantage of the credit, so that he could openly improve his title.

However, his mission was quite arduous in this trip. He had to show some performance in the fight against the rebellion, but he could not steal Feng Ang's limelight too much. If Feng Ang was hated by him, he would just be hit by a wandering arrow and come back to fool things up after the war report of his unfortunate death. He, the passerby, would have died in vain.

Even if Cheng Yaojin and the others were able to incite the Tang Dynasty to conquer Lingnan, it would take a long time to do so. He could not see that day anyway, so how could he find a balance between here and grasp the issue of a degree well? The key is the problem.

However, according to Shi Lei's usual characteristics, he expected to lose without expecting anything. Even if several uncles made relatively optimistic predictions, Shi Lei must make the worst plan.

Shi Lei simply authorized several uncles to activate the retreat paths at home when necessary, including the last secret passage to ensure the safety of the family and the merchants. The first priority is to retreat to several bases and then slowly plan.

Of course, this is the worst situation that happened. It would only be used if the emperor wanted to uproot his own family. After all, it was difficult for you to guess the emperor's mind. Who knows if he would like to you a lot in the previous moment and want to destroy you the next moment to achieve some goals that others cannot understand? Shi Lei also had to be careful.

Then, taking advantage of the rare time before departure, Shi Lei came to visit his father-in-law's family, as well as Zhang Shigui, the family of his family, and the two generals who were most kind to him, and Yuchi Gong. He hoped that they could take good care of Cheng Chuyue and his family during the period when Shi Lei was away.

It is not known how far those two can do, but Cheng Yaojin will definitely not sit by and watch Cheng Chuyue and the others, and ignore them in danger. That is his daughter, Xiao Shiyu is also his grandson, and he is not a person of disgrace. I think with the care of their elders, the safety of the family is relatively safe.

What Shi Lei is really worried about is actually the other nobles. Although their own tendency to optimistic estimates of the meaning of this imperial edict, it is hard to say what kind of interpretation they have.

If you think this is the beginning of the Shi family's decline, those guys who used to be inconsistent with their own sect would definitely not mind stabbing hard and pushing the Shi family hard towards the edge of the cliff they thought.

At this time, if the two enemies of Shi Lei's family are fighting hard to connect with a group of nobles to fight together, the outcome will be difficult to predict.

Among the nobles, there are always many people who are holding the wall and falling down and pushing everyone. After all, there are still very few people who really choose to help in time. Those who can choose to help each other can be considered friendly families.

This is also the cruel rule of survival among nobles. The first thing everyone sees is the prosperity of one family.

However, Shi Lei thought that there were still a few friends, and at least he would not encounter the bleak situation of falling down the tree and scattering. At least among the old martial arts masters of his uncle, there were many people who came to express their concern or expressed their kindness.

Those who can still approach this time are either optimistic about the future of the Shi family and have the same interpretation as those of the uncles. Or they are really kind to the Shi family, seeing the possible crisis and want to get a fight. Shi Lei believes that the Qin Gate God, who has always been kind to the good, and the uncles who are familiar with Uncle Niu, should be like this.

Xi Junmai and Xue Rengui can be said to be the generals led by Shi Lei. Not only did they not move out of the Shi family, but they drew a clear line with Shi Lei, they both came to Shi Lei to express their feelings, just like swearing to show their intention of living and dying with the Shi family, which made Shi Lei very pleased, at least it means that he did not read the wrong person.

What was even more unexpected to Shi Lei, or perhaps it was reasonable. Li Chengqian came to visit Shi Lei in person and sent sincere blessings, even congratulating Shi Lei on his promotion again.

This made Shi Lei firmly believe his thoughts. Even if there are still several barriers to pass in the future, he will definitely stand firmly next to Li Chengqian and witness his glory after he took the throne together.

After receiving so many people's kindness, I thought of An Yuanshou, who had always been kind to her, also heard from her. Although it was just a simple congratulation, it was already very telling.

This person is around Emperor Li Er. Although he is not on the side of the pillow, as Li Er's personal guard, he still knows much more about Li Er's intentions than others.

The eunuch who came to pass the order was still the one who was familiar with Shi Lei, and he still had the unchanging smile. With the combination of multiple factors, Shi Lei felt that it was more likely that he would take this opportunity to go further.

It just so happened to take this opportunity to see which people are from both sides of the rat and which friends can be made in close contact. Every possible crisis and opportunity is not only a test for Shi Lei, but it is actually not a test for Shi's family to these partners.

As for the enemies, there is no need to test them. Just try to fight to the death as much as possible when possible. I believe that Changsun Wuji and the Dou family may think so, so Shi Lei has to leave as many backup methods as possible to target the methods that these two families may have made.

After a few days of busy but unremitting preparations, the day of departure came inevitably.

"I will report to you when I go there. Don't worry, this time I'll go to gild it. I'll wait for His Majesty to give me a promotion and salary increase. Just think I'm going to Lingnan for vacation, and don't worry about me at all.

With my ability and so many powerful subordinates, it would be fine if Feng Ang was polite. If he was not honest, I would take off his head and bring it back together."

Shi Lei hugged Cheng Chuyue one by one, and the sisters Yu Linglong whispered to the three sisters who were holding back their tears. The three of them were also very suitable and squeezed out a smile.

"Take good care of our son. When I am not at home, don't bully the sisters Yu Linglong. Don't forget that you are the mistress of our Shi family. Someone really dares to come over. Don't be polite to chop him up." Shi Lei said alone to Cheng Chuyue, who tried to keep a smile.

He also lowered his head and kissed Xiao Shiqiu who was standing there. The stubborn stubborn guy giggled constantly. Xiao Shiqiu's laughter still diluted a lot of the sorrow of parting.

"Go, do I seem to bully them?" Cheng Chuyue picked the corner of her mouth.

"Wait for me to return with honor." Shi Lei rode aboard a war horse and waved his hands and shouted loudly at the merchants who insisted on sending them out.

"The head of the family will definitely return with honor!" The villagers sent their blessings in unison.

Shi Lei was so cruel that he stopped looking at the reluctant family members. He thrust hard at the butt of the war horse, and then rushed out with his carefully selected guards. The mysterious Lingnan, I, Shi Lei, are here.
