After she finished speaking, Commander Qian let out a cold laugh.
"Pei Shu'er, don't push your luck. Reducing your sentence by ten years is already the most benevolent thing we could do."
General Zhao didn't say much more, as it was indeed a generous reward.
"However, Mrs. Pei raised a valid point. For the materials this time, let's use green bricks or stones. We can't use rammed earth anymore."
Commander Qian was now worried that General Zhao might give the oversight job to Pei Shu'er, so he quickly spoke up.
"General, regarding the construction supervision of the city wall, why not let me handle it? Before being assigned to the frontier, I also worked at the Ministry of Industry."
Tang Zan said, "This city wall design was drawn by Pei Shu'er, so why not..."
As soon as he said this, all the commanders present opposed it.
"Ha, there's no such precedent for letting a woman supervise. It's never happened in the past dynasties."
