With his left hand resting on the armrest of the faucet, his deep eyes swept down, taking a panoramic view of the manners and expressions of all the ministers standing under His Highness, and with a slight smile, he asked, "Is there anything else you want to say, Zhu Aiqing?"

"Your minister has a book to play." Zeng Youli, the censor, came out with a respectful and pious face, no matter how you looked at it, he looked like a loyal minister who served the country and the people, "The Zuo Prime Minister Li Qi's conspiracy has been dealt with, and the general of the town Whether Zhang Tingfeng was framed by Li Qi has not yet been found out. I beg Your Majesty to order a strict investigation into this matter, so as to restore General Zhang's innocence." Then he paused and continued: "The position of General Zhen Guo is still vacant. If such delays continue, the morale of the army may be weakened. If there is a sudden attack from abroad, Qingsha will be in turmoil, and the people will be in trouble." The minister of censors looked worried, as if he was thinking about the imminent suffering of the people in the world.

How could Tuoba Genghu not know what His Highness and these people were thinking, he sneered in his heart, and still asked calmly: "Then Ai Qing has someone in mind?"

Zeng Youli nodded, "It's true that I have someone to choose, but it's just what I saw personally. I hope His Majesty will not blame you if you say it."

"Aiqing is for the sake of the country, but it doesn't matter."

"My minister thought that Zhengwei General Wang Qiongsheng was able to do the job. When he was fighting against the Huns in the Northwest, General Wang fought against the enemy's generals and led thousands of cavalry to attack the enemy camp. He was extremely brave and praised by the world!"

Tuobang Genghu nodded, but instead of expressing his opinion, he looked at Prime Minister You. He seemed hesitant to speak, so he threw the question away, "What do you think, Prime Minister Right?"

Prime Minister You hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward quickly, and said: "My minister and Mr. Zeng have different opinions. I think that although General Wang is a capable man, but he is young and lacks experience, it may not be enough to make everyone feel good. The general is convinced." Glancing at Zeng Youli standing beside him, he looked at the emperor and said, "I have a more suitable candidate."

"Oh? Prime Minister Right, please tell me."

"My minister recommends the Duke of Lu. Who doesn't remember that the Duke of Lu led 24 cavalry to sweep thousands of troops? Who doesn't know that the Duke of Lu single-handedly killed more than a dozen generals of the Huns? Who doesn't know that the Duke of Lu led the An army of 30 defeated the enemy for thousands of miles, and drove those Hun bandits to the ancient desert. They haven’t set foot in the Central Plains for more than ten years? The Duke of Lu should be able to frighten thousands of Huns, so I feel that Duke Lu is the great general of the country. The perfect choice."

Hearing these words, Tuoba Genghu immediately stood up, "The right minister's words are really in line with my wishes, what do you think?"

"The ministers and others seconded the right minister to recommend Duke Lu as the general of the country!" Almost all the ministers in the hall spoke together.

With a wave of his sleeve, "Okay, since you have no objection, it's just that Duke Lu hasn't asked about political affairs for many years, and now I'm afraid he won't..." Tuoba Genghu seemed a little worried.Duke Lu has lived in seclusion in the mountains for many years, and it may not be so easy for him to come out of the mountains.

Right Prime Minister Liu Zhenxiang stood up quickly and said, "I would like to petition the Ling Mansion. I believe Duke Lu understands the righteousness and will not refuse."

"This discussion is very good, so I will hand it over to the Prime Minister. I will confer the Duke of Lu as the Great General of Zhen Guo from now on." Long Yan rejoiced.

Ling Zifei, on the other hand, got the news after the emperor ebbed, and felt even more disturbed. The current change was beyond his expectation. What was the emperor thinking? "Qingyi, is this true?"

"It's absolutely true, master, you finally don't have to worry about it anymore. Since Lord Lu has become the commander-in-chief of the three armies, he will definitely be able to protect the master from being bullied in the deep palace." Qingyi felt very happy.

"Really?" I'm afraid there will be a bigger bloodbath. If father really had contact with Zuo Chan Li Qi, the emperor would not know.But why do you want to hand over all the military power of the three armies to your father?But now, what makes Ling Zifei even more sad is that he is like a joke, how can he face Zhang Yuxin?What would she think?Originally, her father was the famous general, but now, the general is her own father!

Ling Zifei just felt as if someone had poured cold water on her heart, and the news of the canonization of the Zhenguo General would definitely reach Zhang Yuxin, and she couldn't stop it, so what would she think of herself?Ling Zifei felt very scared.

However, not everything can be controlled by Ling Zifei, she is not the so-called master.

Of course Zhang Li knew it psychologically, but she was as calm as usual, even indifferent.What Ling Zifei was afraid of was not that Zhang Yuxin would suddenly yell or lose his temper, but what she was afraid of was that Zhang Yuxin would not say anything, would not do anything, and was indifferent to all this.

However, it was far more than that that made her panic. Before the congratulatory wine of General Zhen Guo was finished, the military situation at the border was already in an emergency. The main forces of the army were all attracted to the mountains in the west, and they were caught in an ambush, and they would not be able to escape for a while, while the Xiongnu's elite army went straight to Huanglong and captured Shanhaiguan in one fell swoop.

The secret investigation of the Peacock Palace is not a trick, and the military situation is so critical, how could it be possible to hide it from the emperor?But the situation is such that people are really caught off guard, and they don't have much time to think about it. They can only hope that someone will solve the situation.

Seeing Qingyi who was hurrying in, Ling Zifei stepped forward and asked, "How is it?"

Qingyi bit her lower lip and frowned, "Master, it's not a big deal! I just heard them say that the emperor was going to conquest in person, but was dissuaded by Prime Minister You. They said it was for the safety of Qing Sha, the emperor must Staying in the imperial city, the imperial court has lost several ministers, if the emperor leaves, it may cause turmoil. Therefore, the emperor issued an order to let Duke Lu take command and crusade against the Xiongnu."

Ling Zifei's heart tightened, and he took a deep breath, "Is it the right minister's idea?"

Qingyi nodded, "At that time, Prime Minister Right ignored Duke Lu's wishes and insisted on promulgating the imperial decree. Now that Duke Lu is ill, he wants to conquer the Xiongnu. This is really..."

"How is daddy now?" Ling Zifei was even more worried. Because things were changing so fast, she hadn't returned to Ling's mansion in order not to make Zhang Yu feel sad. Now that she knew that daddy was sick, she was even more frightened.

"Lu Gongji is a man of nature, so he will get better." Qingyi looked sad and stopped talking.

Ling Zifei felt upset, "Daddy..."

"Go back." Just as Ling Zifei was in a dilemma, he heard an extremely familiar voice behind him.

"Xin'er..." Ling Zifei turned around and saw the elegant and indifferent Zhang Lixin standing aside in a white shirt. Seeing the affirmation in her eyes, Ling Zifei no longer hesitated, and then ordered: "Prepare the carriages and horses, we will go back to Ling Go to the government."

"Yes, master." Qingyi quickly stepped back and began to prepare.

Zhang Yuxin stepped forward, "Do you know about the Huns?" Without waiting for Ling Zifei's answer, he continued: "Grand Lu is sick now, he is old, and he has retired to the mountains and forests many years ago, let alone How to train troops and send generals to attack the Xiongnu?"

The words awakened the dreamer, and Ling Zifei immediately calmed down. It was true. It would be an obvious mistake to let his elderly father go to battle because of the military emergency.But such a shrewd person as the emperor would actually do this, there must be some deep meaning in it.

"But if Duke Lu really leads troops, what will be the end?" Zhang Yuxin's words were cold and clear, without a trace of tone.

Ling Zifei felt a little uneasy, but he said, "I know what to do."

Immediately Ling Zifei walked out of Dongzhao Hall, and went to Ling Mansion with Qingyi to observe Ling Yutan's condition, and after knowing that there was nothing serious, he hurried back to the palace and went straight to Longyin Hall to express his intention Finally, waiting for Tuoba Genghu's sentencing.

"You mean, you want to go to war on behalf of your father." Tuoba Genghu squinted his eyes, his expression seemed a little dangerous.

Ling Zifei was fearless, "My father is old, and now he is ill. He really can't afford to travel around, and I don't have an elder brother. If I don't go to war on my father's behalf, I'm afraid I will be called unfilial, and my father will be hurt even more."

"But in the history of Qingsha, there is no such thing as a female general leading an army. Besides, you can't even hold a weapon. How can you fight against the Huns?"

"A general is a general, and a soldier is a soldier. They should not be confused. The general is the soul of commanding the entire army, and the soldier is the body that charges into battle."

Tuoba Genghu suddenly hooked his lips into a smile, "What a sharp tongue, but even though I have agreed, what will the people of the world, the court ministers say?"

"God will tell." Ling Zifei snorted.A double entendre, people in the world are superstitious, and heaven says that it is up to heaven to make decisions, so it is heaven's arrangement, so how can the world have little words; and the real decision is made by the emperor, so the emperor is heaven.
