The true and false lady's heart is waiting for the lady

In the court

The emperor looked at the good news coming from Tongzhou, and all the civil and military officials in the court were silent and bowed their heads.

"Tongzhou is here to report. The Hippo Tribe has invaded many times in recent days. Tongzhou's troops are weak and I'm afraid they won't be able to withstand it for long. Today, Huicheng and Tongzhou need someone to guard them. Do you have any candidates?"

The emperor's heart was like a mirror. Nangong Lingyue wanted to get back the military power, and Luo Shijin also wanted the military power, but Nangong Moxu kept silent.

Now the Hippo tribe is about to conquer Tongzhou. Once Tongzhou is captured, other tribes will also cross the border of Beiyong at this time.

But once the troops are sent out, the current candidates, besides Yu Xiaoxiao, are Nangong Lingyue and Luo Shijin.

But now, the most suitable candidate can only be found at the last moment.

Facing Luo Junyi's death, the emperor felt guilty. He left with the secret, which could be regarded as preserving the last lifeline of the Luo family. Although he left the Luo family full, he could not give them military power, which was only 300,000.

The emperor couldn't even give Nangong Lingyue. A few months ago, in order to let Nangong Qingyu ascend the throne, he sent people to assassinate Nangong Lingyue several times. This was completely impossible.

Once military power is handed over, it will be a naked declaration to the world who the future emperor will be.

The ministers also looked at each other, and they all knew that raising questions would lead to endless debates.

Everyone was quiet because they didn't know how to answer.

No one can speak first, otherwise they will be at a disadvantage.

"I have a suggestion!" Taifu Liu stood up, holding the jade plaque in his hands, "Taifu Liu, tell me?" The emperor's eyes suddenly lit up.

Before Taifu Liu spoke, everyone secretly turned their eyes to him.

"I believe that sending troops to resolve the war between the Hippo tribe is the most important thing. Now because of the snow in most places in our country, uncontrollable natural disasters will occur in various places in the coming year. The various tribes are ready to take action, and they are also eyeing me Beiyong. , this time, we must defeat the Hippo tribe in one fell swoop and warn those who have disloyal intentions towards Bei Yong."

Liu Taifu said so much, but he did not recommend a candidate.

"According to the words of the Taifu, who can command the army?" Although the emperor felt that it was reasonable, he finally spoke directly to the point.

"I thought it would be most appropriate for me to be Lord Luoshi, but!"

When someone wanted to stand and objected, Liu Taifu spoke first, "Although Mr. Luo has not been on the battlefield for many years, his bravery in resisting foreign enemies needs more people to learn from him. I think that this time the troops are sent out, and Mr. Luo is in command. It would also be good for some younger people to learn from him, such as Xie Deng and the young master who have achieved some success recently, and An Ruyuan, the orphan daughter of General An."

After everyone listened, they all thought about these people first.

"I object!" At this time, a minister stood up. He was the chief minister of the Civil Service and one of the emperor's loyal ministers. "I believe that although Mr. Luo has the ability to lead troops, he has not been on the battlefield for many years. I think that , you need to choose someone else!”

"Master Hai, this is serious!" Taifu Liu said again: "Your Majesty, Master Luo is indeed a suitable candidate. If you feel that Master Luo is not suitable, then only General Yu, who has recently resigned, can guard the border all year round. , leading troops to fight is commonplace."

"Taifu Liu, this is wrong. General Yu is now focused on returning to his home and family, and he has just gotten married. He is not suitable to lead the army again."

Haishoufu objected again.

Nangong Lingyue looked at Shen Yunhe, already thinking of a way to deal with it.

"His Majesty!"

"His Majesty!"

Nangong Lingyue just stood up, and Nangong Moxu stood up and said first: "I think that the reason why Hippo sent troops is because the Hippo tribe is in the plateau area. A few months ago, when Jinda was fighting Lan Po, he also launched an attack on Lan Po. The reason for the sudden attack on Tongzhou is that Tongzhou is one of the most important cities in our country. Once the city gate is lost, it can lead directly to the border between the northwest and Nanzhou. The northwest has to deal with Jinda, and the Nanzhou border defense has to deal with thirty-six The Ministry and Western Chu cannot be considered, I suggest that your Majesty make a decision as soon as possible!"

Nangong Lingyue objected and looked at the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, I believe that Mr. Luo's hand was injured in the battle with the Hippo tribe and has not recovered yet. He currently does not have the ability to command the three armies."

"Your Majesty!" Luo Shijin stood up and said: "The junior minister is still young and not suitable for commanding the three armies. However, King Bei'an's legs are now healed and he can go on an expedition in person!"

"I object!" Hai Shoufu said again: "Although King Bei'an's legs have recovered, the imperial doctor has also said that he cannot lead troops to fight again because it will damage his jade body."

Suddenly, a debate began in the court.

"Report!"

As soon as the report was announced, the soldiers ran in with the intelligence, knelt down and reported: "Your Majesty, there is a letter from Tongzhou. Mr. Jiang, the deputy general of the city guard, was on the battlefield and resisted to the death. He died in battle!"

"what!"

Everyone looked at each other, they didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

"Several cities in Tongzhou were all captured by the Hippo tribe. They kidnapped young boys, killed old people and children, burned, killed, and looted. They committed all kinds of evil. Our army suffered heavy losses."

When the soldiers' words reached the emperor's ears, he was filled with shock.

"The people of Tongzhou, old, young, sick and disabled, all took up arms to resist. They could hardly stand it any longer."

"Your Majesty, I hope you can issue an order as soon as possible!" Taifu Liu said immediately, his voice trembling, "Your Majesty, Tongzhou is thousands of miles away from the imperial city, but it is rich in food. If we lose Tongzhou, there will be a high possibility of famine in the coming year. big."

"I also second the proposal!"

The prime minister stood up and agreed with what the Taifu said.

"I second the proposal!"

Those officials who were really worried about the people kept pleading for mercy, hoping that the emperor would put the overall situation first.

Nangong Lingyue looked at this situation and had no way to take action.

Seeing his army of 300,000 men falling into the hands of Luo Shijin.

"According to my instructions, during the feudal period, I will serve as a hussar general, be in charge of the Tiger Talisman Commander's Seal, lead 300,000 troops, defeat the Hippo tribe in one fell swoop, and protect our people in Beiyong."

In the end, the emperor gave the order to hand over 300,000 troops to Luo Shijin.

"Your Majesty, I accept the order. Thank you, Your Majesty!" Luo Shi finally got the military power as he wished.

On the same day, Cheng Chiman, dressed in red, was at the gate of Libei Prince's Mansion.

Many people came to see her off, and King Libei and Cheng Chiyue personally sent her to Luo City in the border country of Lan Po.

"Princess!" The people who were familiar with the princess called her with reluctance in their eyes.

With tears in his eyes, the child looked at Cheng Chiman reluctantly.

Everyone came to see him off, Cheng Chiman was a little touched, but he didn't cry in order to let everyone see how strong he was.

He turned around and looked at Luo Yuejian, then at his elder brother.

"Sister Luo!" Cheng Chiman took Luo Yuejian's hand and said, "From now on, I need you to take more care of this family!"

Luo Yuejian caressed Cheng Chiman's face. There were tears in her eyes, but she didn't dare to cry. She felt a little distressed and said, "Don't worry, I will take good care of Prince Libei's palace and take good care of the prince."

"Yeah!" Cheng Chiman then couldn't help but shed tears and nodded fiercely, "Then you must be good to your brother and be happy!"

"Yes, you will definitely be happy." Luoyue said firmly, then looked back at Cheng Chiyue, the smile on her face was full of happiness.

"Let's go, don't keep others waiting!" King Libei was the one who was most reluctant to give up. He saw that his daughter was going to marry far away. For the sake of the country's justice, as a father, he was unable to do anything.

Qin'er helped Cheng Chiman get on the carriage, followed by the wedding team, the dowry given by Bei Yong, and some of the dowry soldiers and maids.

After sitting down, the carriage will start to set off.

"Wait here for me to come back!" Cheng Chiyue touched Luo Yuejian's face, kissed her directly, and looked directly at Luo Yuejian. "Hmm!" Luoyue looked at him with her blushing face and lowered her eyebrows from time to time. Every time she looked at him, her heart beat violently. Who could accept being so ambiguous to her under the direct gaze of everyone?

He immediately lowered his head shyly, "Then you and the prince, come back soon."

After giving instructions, Luo Yuejian ran directly into the palace.

Cheng Chiyue looked at her running and giggled. She touched her head and turned around to look at the people watching the excitement.

In an instant, his face turned red.

"The prince is so kind to the prince concubine!"

"Yes!"

"Yes, such a beautiful Crown Princess, if it were me, she would be a thousand times better."

Everyone started joking.

"I don't know why, this prince is so smart about getting married. Yesterday morning, there was no news, but at night he started making arrangements for getting married?"

Everyone was surprised by this.

He got on his horse in a panic, followed the escort team, and sent his sister to Luo City in person.

He was right next to the carriage during the wedding procession.

"Brother, you have to be nicer to your sister-in-law!" Cheng Chiman directly lifted the curtain of the carriage and couldn't help but said to Cheng Chiyue, "I just married you like that and got nothing. It's a pity that I didn't have time to attend the meeting between brother and sister-in-law. Wedding!" I want to get married, but I don't have the chance to watch my brother get married. "Brother Shen is about to get married, and I don't have the chance to attend. I hope you can all be happy!"
