The Empress Dowager nodded, "Lu Xingzhou nowadays is no longer the famous War God of twenty years ago. Even if you bring him back, he may not necessarily be able to help you deploy troops and formulate strategies."
Emperor Guangxi has already considered this aspect.
Although the army has been resting for twenty years, in daily life, drills and exercises are inevitable. However, this War God has been resting for twenty years without even approaching the training ground. Leisurely sipping tea and admiring flowers has made him idle and lazy. In the past two years, he has joyously become a father, diverting his focus away from the military camp.
Moreover, Fanghua has already been demoted to commoner status. Even as the Emperor, and as her biological brother, facing so many lives, he cannot disregard the law to bring them back.
