After passing through the book, Mr. Chief Assistant came to rely on me

Those soldiers were wearing armor, holding bows and arrows, and they were murderous.

Su Xiaoxi in the palace immediately ran to Tai Chi Hall to prepare to see the emperor.

"Father, how can you let them enter the city?" Su Xiaoxi looked at the emperor and asked angrily.

The emperor turned to look at Su Xiaoxi, "I am helpless. Do you think I am unwilling?"

"But you clearly know that the foundation of our country is not yet solid."

"Am I willing to hand over the Ning Dynasty to Beirong and these small border countries?" The emperor glared at Su Xiaoxi angrily.

Su Xiaoxi was silent and speechless.

The emperor suddenly sneered, "Haha, Beimo put laxatives in the city on our border, which lowered the morale of our army. If not, how could he dare to rush into our Daning City so arrogantly."

The emperor said, his eyes red and full of hatred.

Su Xiaoxi was stunned.

laxative!

That Bei Mo was so despicable that he used poison to deal with Beirong.

"Your Majesty!" Before Su Xiaoxi could speak, Li Defu suddenly interjected, "I think the Emperor is not suitable to worry about this."

"Li Defu, what do you mean?" The emperor looked at Li Defu displeasedly, as if he didn't understand why Li Defu was so calm at this time.

"Your Majesty, think about it, our treasury is empty, we are short of food and grass, and now we are attacked by Beirong. In such a situation, it is useless for you to worry!"

What Li Defu said was reasonable, but the emperor still refused to give up.

"How much military pay do I have left?" the emperor asked.

"Fifty thousand elite soldiers, plus food and grass, will require at least sixty or seventy thousand gold." Li Defu replied.

Sixty or seventy thousand!

Upon hearing this number, the emperor slumped on the throne.

"Li Defu, what do you think I should do?" The emperor looked at Li Defu decadently, hoping to get an answer from Li Defu.

"Your Majesty, why don't you send your ministers and His Highness the Crown Prince to go on an expedition now? We will definitely be able to defeat Beirong and return in triumph." Cheng Shubai looked at Nangong Chen seriously, his face full of horror.

"No, absolutely not, how can I abandon my son." The emperor refused.

"Your Majesty, this is the only choice!" Cheng Shubai insisted that it was impossible for him to stay in the capital.

"But -" the emperor wanted to refute, but Nangong Che suddenly said, "Father, I agree with the suggestion of the chief minister."

“You—” the emperor glared at Nangong Che, “Nangong Che, have you forgotten how I promoted you in the first place?”

Nangong Che knelt down and lowered his eyes, "Your Majesty, I have not forgotten it, but the current situation is in front of me. Your Majesty, can you just bear to let our people in Daning be harmed by the war?"

"But nothing can happen to my prince!"

"If you can't even protect your own people, what's the use of this throne?!" Nangong Chen shouted sternly.

"Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince is a man, and men should bear responsibilities. You are the emperor and shoulder heavy responsibilities!" Cheng Shubai advised earnestly, "Your Highness the Crown Prince, you also know that the Emperor is old and his body has long been unable to hold on. Right now, We should reassure the Emperor!

Hearing this, Nangong Chen frowned, looking disapproving.

After a long time, Nangong Che raised his eyes with a deep gaze, "Father, my son is willing to lead the army on an expedition. I ask my father to do it!"

Seeing the three people in front of him expressing their opinions, the emperor was extremely troubled.

Although he knew that Nangong Che was trying to comfort him, he still felt reluctant to let go. After all, Nangong Che was his child.

In the end, the emperor sighed, "That's all, Che'er, my father is waiting for your triumphant return!"

"My son will fulfill his mission!"

Nangong Che said, stood up and walked towards the door.

The emperor looked at Nangong Che's leaving figure without saying a word. At this time, the emperor no longer had the decisive courage just now.

And just after Nangong Che left for a long time, the emperor seemed to have made some kind of important decision and ordered Li Defu to send an order to mobilize the garrisons from the four cities to go out to meet the enemy.

At this time, the Beirong army was still 800 meters away from the border city of Daning.

"Marshal Qi, the emperor ordered you to postpone the attack." A soldier came to report.

The man called the Marshal was an old man with a gray beard.

"Haha, the emperor must be afraid! In this case, the marshal cannot live up to the emperor's love and let the Beirong Army continue to be rampant!" The old man laughed heartily.

Then, the old man waved his hand and said, "Continue to attack!"

Beside the old man, two other younger lieutenants also agreed.

"Yes!"

With an order, the Beirong Army began to attack again.

At this time, Daning's soldiers were obviously exhausted, and several charges ended tragically.

Looking at the scene in front of him, the emperor frowned.

"Your Majesty, what should we do now?" Li Defu asked, looking anxious.

"Your Majesty, I will ask Ying, the last general, to lead an army of 20 people to go out and ensure that Beirong is captured!"

The generals on the side asked for orders one after another, and everyone's face was full of fighting spirit.

The emperor looked at these soldiers and was very pleased. It was a pity that the treasury was empty now, otherwise, these soldiers would not be in trouble.

The emperor thought for a while, then nodded in agreement, "Okay, I will make you vanguard officers and lead the army to fight."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!" All the generals expressed their gratitude in unison.

Then, the emperor personally issued instructions and appointed Nangong Che as a vanguard officer, leading [-] troops to Beirong.

……

In Concubine Shu's palace, the sixth princess Nangong Yu'er looked at her father's actions with sarcasm on her lips, "Huh, my father is really confused. He actually wants to send the prince to go on an expedition at this time. This is obviously because he wants the prince to die. So For many years, my father has not looked at my brother with admiration, but now he sends the prince to the battlefield, which is simply ridiculous!"

Nangong Yu'er had an annoyed look on her face. She couldn't understand that her brother Nangong Qingyan was so outstanding, but he didn't get the favor of his father. Instead, Nangong Che became the prince.

"Yu'er!" Just when Nangong Yu'er was angry, Concubine Shu's voice sounded, with a hint of threat.

Upon seeing this, Nangong Yu'er immediately fell silent and obediently stepped aside and sat down.

"Mother Concubine!" When Concubine Shu sat down, Nangong Yu'er shouted aggrievedly. She was just complaining for her brother.

"Yu'er, didn't my mother tell you that no matter what happens, you must be patient and not be reckless?" Concubine Shu said with a reprimand in her tone.

Hearing this, Nangong Yuer felt even more unconvinced.

"Why should I endure it!" Nangong Yu'er shouted.

"Because my mother-in-law loves you so much!"

"Mother Concubine!" Nangong Yu'er looked at Concubine Shu angrily, "I am also your daughter, why do you always favor that bastard!"

"Pa~" Concubine Shu raised her hand and slapped Nangong Yu'er hard, "Evil! Who do you think is a bastard?!"

"it's him!"

"you.."
