The meal ended so nonsensically, the old woman Lu was soon forced to go back to the room, Xiao Jing only ate half full and said that she was tired and wanted to go back to rest, the situation in the Zhenguo Mansion is not too bad now, at least I haven't seen Aunt Wang and Xiao Qing, I heard that because of the treasure offering, the Queen Mother's family is living well in Xixia City.

But Aunt Wang is still an aunt, and she is not as good as Li Yinghong when she loses her child, how can she be willing?

"This time...... Who has ever been to Mando? Xiao Jing sat by the window, looking at the withered flowers outside, but his mind was thinking about everything that was happening in Xixia City now.

"Miss An Yi has been here." Shuang'er thought for a while, and then thought of something wrong, "On the afternoon of the day the young lady left, the side lady went out to see the shop with the slave maid and Pei'er, and the old lady was also announced into the palace because of urgency, and the old lady asked the grandmother to go out of the house to pick up Miss An Yi on the grounds that she missed her granddaughter, and the guards didn't want her to come in when they saw Miss An Yi, but the old lady was kind and powerful, and finally came in through the back door, and after saying something in Baishoutang, she came to Mantuo Garden, saying that she missed Miss, and Qing'er told her that Miss went to the border, But she insisted on going into the yard...... Now that I think about it... It's really a coincidence, because the sun was just right that afternoon, Pei'er and I discussed and took out the medicinal herbs to dry, presumably she was poisoned at that time......" Shuang'er now thinks about this, and the more she thinks about it, the more suspicious she becomes.

Xiao Jing frowned slightly, Xiao Anyi, although Xiao Anyi hated herself, but it hadn't reached this point yet, her simple brain would never have thought of such a far-reaching, now I'm afraid that her stomach can't be filled, where is there time to harm herself? The only thing that makes sense is that she was instructed by someone to want not her own life, but to be ruined, and life is worse than death.

Who in this Xixia City has such a deep hatred with himself? Xiao Jing really couldn't figure it out.

"Well, I know, let's go down and rest early!" Xiao Jing did not have the habit of letting others sit on the edge of the bed to keep vigil, usually letting them step on the bed outside to make the bed, and they could be summoned if they needed anything.

Today is the vigil of Shuang'er, and this day without rain is particularly unreassuring, and I want to come...... After she arrived at the border, she thought every day that the old man could bring Suiyu to see her, but later Mo Qianchen told her that Suiyu was arranged to the cold ice cave because of the damage to her internal force, Xiao Jing didn't know what the cold ice cave was, so she had to nod her head and wait for Sui Yu to come back after her injuries were healed.

Early in the morning, before dawn, Xiao Jing was pulled out of the quilt by a few maids, bathed and changed clothes, and made it look like she was going to meet the national players~ Okay! It can also be regarded as going to meet the head of state.

Dressed in a purple palace costume and wearing a delicate jade crown, he is noble and elegant, dignified and atmospheric.

Today is the day when the heroes of the Xuan Border enter the palace to receive the reward, and Xiao Jing is also included in it.

It seems that everything is on track, and nothing unhappy happens, about Xiao Zhengjie, about Yuan Shuyuan, about Aunt Wang, there is no ...... Some are just piles of gifts from the Zhenguo Mansion and the flattery of the ministers, which makes Xiao Jing feel exhausted, she hates this environment, but she has to stick to it here, for the so-called fame, reputation, and damn favor.

The front hall is high-end and magnificent......

The civil and military officials all stood under His Royal Highness one by one, looked up at the noble emperor, knelt down, bowed three times and bowed nine times, and no one could escape.

"A flat sound." "Let the hall be very quiet, I am afraid that if I drop the needle on the ground at this time, it will attract people's attention, and there are only two women in His Royal Highness, Xiao Jing and Chu Xinran, both of whom are palace clothes and are extremely gorgeous.

These two women have become legends of the entire Western Xia, a heroine among women, heroic and cool. A gentle and elegant, unparalleled medical skill. Be the center of attention wherever you go.

As for Xiao Jing, the official position is already the highest, and the official mansion, gold and silver jewelry, and silk and silk are countless, I am afraid that she is the most difficult to seal.

King Shengqing was originally a royal family, one person under 10,000 people, the Shengqing Palace has a unique building, designed by the emperor himself, I am afraid that he will not move again in this life, and the wealth is not easy to say, although he has not been to the Shengqing Palace, but everyone knows that the death of the emperor left him a lot of things, and I am afraid that it will not be spent in eight lifetimes. If he asks for another promotion, he will be suspected of being disrespectful, but it is impossible not to reward him for such a great achievement, these two people are really nerve-wracking.

"This time the Northern Departure Army invaded my Western Xia land, to be honest, it was a blow to me in the head, and it woke me up the problems I had ignored and the mistakes I had made in the past three years. The emperor's face was full of excitement, and he even took the case.

But below was a kneeling group, and almost all of them said in unison as if they had been trained, "Weichen is afraid!" ”

This kind of micro-minister deserves death, the emperor please calm his anger, the micro-minister is afraid, and the micro-minister is incompetent, these words are almost the words that all the courtiers of the dynasty must say, and they are also the words that the emperor hates to hear the most.

"Panic? Do you know that you are afraid? What does it mean to be prepared for danger in times of peace? You are now living in the rich and peaceful Xixia City, while the people are suffering at the border, within the borders, is it really necessary that one day someone else will kill the Xixia City and approach my dormitory before you understand what I said? If you don't know how to wake up, what's the use of raising you? "The emperor was furious, if it weren't for the fact that the matter was too big, he really wanted to lift the sword and cut off the heads of these ministers, raising such a group of waste ministers, but he couldn't share anything for him, and raising them was just a waste of food and silver.

"Brother Chen's book is going to play!" In the end, Mo Qianchen stood up from the chair, that was his special position, placed on the lower right of the emperor today, everyone knelt down at this moment, only he was still standing in the middle, extremely arrogant, releasing the royal domineering that the emperor should have.

The emperor immediately stretched out his hand, "Brother Huang, please speak!" ”

"At this moment, the soldiers and horses of the North Departure Army are endless, if it is not for the ministers who sent people to the North to leave the country in advance, I am afraid that the war is still going on, and the people are still in dire straits, this time the ministers and brothers did experience the gap between the military strength of the two sides, the North Departure people are barbaric, and they almost don't want to die when they fight, and Bei Changge gave a death order, if they can cut off the head of the opponent's commander, they will be rewarded with 10,000 taels of gold, if they can cut off the heads of the left and right deputy marshals, they will be rewarded with 1,000 taels of gold, as the saying goes, there will be brave men under the heavy reward, and this is not unreasonable, Looking at General Pei and Chu Shangshu, you will know that the military strength is really weak compared to other countries, and if you don't remedy it in time, I'm afraid you can only sit and wait for death. Mo Qianchen rarely said so much, but now his thoughts and Mo Qianling's thoughts came together, it seemed that the two brothers were so close in thought for the first time.

"Emperor Qi, it's not too late to make amends, although Weichen is a woman, but this time at the border is a different feeling, our army's military strength is really weak, and it can't compete with the North Departure Army at all, so many soldiers have been sacrificed in vain, so if it goes on like this, I am afraid that it is not only the sorrow of the soldiers, but also the sorrow of a country!" Xiao Jing also has a passion for changing the status quo of Xixia for the first time, this is her home, there are people she loves, if one day this country does not exist, then ...... Where can she go?

"How can a mere female streamer discuss matters in court? Isn't Imperial Doctor Xiao because he has made meritorious contributions, so he is unruly? Do you know that a sentence of national sorrow is casually uttered by a woman? Isn't it that you are cursing the emperor and damsing me Daxia? "It was Aunt Wang's father Wang Yan who spoke, and now he has entered the Ministry of Officials, eating and drinking spicy food, and being at ease.

Wang Shangshu forgave Xiao Jing for disagreeing with this, the rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband! Presumably, the wives of the adults of each family will also ask everyone about the court in their spare time, and persuade the husband to be patriotic and disciplined, is this also a discussion of the court? If you are a courtier of the emperor, you can't share the worries of the monarch with the service of the army, and you don't face the problem directly, if you say this, you are afraid that the emperor will blame, and you are afraid that you will commit a taboo? So how can you be a minister of the auxiliary king? Xia Guan believes that the reason why the emperor raises all the adults is naturally to listen to the truth and solve the problem in the most direct way, rather than avoiding the problem, if it can be solved by escaping, then the emperor alone is enough, what do you want us to do? Xiao Jing stood in the middle with a righteous and awe-inspiring face, dressed in purple, with a frosty complexion, and extremely serious, which made the hundreds of officials in the hall begin to feel weak.

"The minister agrees with what Lord Xiao sees, born at the border, dangerous at all times, shrouded in horse leather, but also shuttles between the rain of swords, guns and arrows all the time, the feeling that it seems that the next moment will be inserted into the heart by a long arrow from afar, I am afraid that it is not something that adults can bear, if they can, I am willing to let everyone try this meaning... Your Majesty, the ministers will not beat around the bush because the soldiers can't get good drills, and their physical condition is not as fierce as the North Departure Army, which makes our army suffer a big loss, the war is only two months, we lost more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, and most of the survivors were injured, if it weren't for the Shengqing King who sent someone to the North to leave the country and make a move, let the country be in turmoil, I'm afraid that today's court, I won't have a few of us..."Chu Xinran has never been afraid of offending people, plus Chu Shangshu was injured at the border this time, these old stubborns don't understand anything, Still blaming herself here, this is not right, that is not right, how is the woman? Didn't these men have the courage to go this time? She was too hasty and emotional, and she even used me to call herself in class.

"Then, according to Lord Xiao, how can we improve the current situation?" Mo Qianling didn't blame Chu Xinran, he paused for a while, but his thoughts were thousands, and finally his eyes stopped at Xiao Jing.

"National conscription, focusing on training candidates for this year's martial arts, enhancing the national strength of Xixia at the same time, but also creating opportunities for the children of the poor family, and cultivating talents for all of us, you know, how many candidates who are depressed because of the failure of the imperial examination have since given up practicing martial arts and lost hope in the national martial arts examination? Voluntary participation in the army, there are special literati nationwide registration of voluntary military personnel, sacrificed for the country, family members can be compensated 50 taels of silver, meritorious service, five years can voluntarily retire from the army, reward 100 taels of silver, outstanding performance in the army, can be promoted by the boss, whether it is slave or official status, all equal treatment, found to buy officials and awarded officials, will be given heavy fines, found to forcibly occupy the merits of subordinates, double heavy fines, each army can send someone to supervise, if the supervisor finds that the boss has violated the rules, can directly report to the emperor for processing, the same, Subordinates can also supervise and supervise personnel at the same time, and if it is found that they have connived at their superiors and subordinates to buy and award officials in violation of military discipline, they can jointly write to the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of War will report to the emperor for punishment. All officials and ministries strictly control the gates, and the Yushitai will also focus on major events, send talented seniors to train soldiers, find talented people who have not been valued by the people in the past three years because of the emphasis on literature and light military force in the DPRK, and jointly build a strong and powerful team belonging to our country to deter the other three countries, Xixia men, should shoulder the responsibility of protecting the family and defending the country, as long as they arouse their awareness of this in their hearts, and are convinced, then they have been successful in three points~" Xiao Jingzhen was full of words, spoke clearly, and told his own opinions and suggestions, The officials around her were dumbfounded, and even the emperor and Mo Qianchen looked at her in a daze, as if they had discovered a new continent on earth.

In the end, seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Xiao Jing knelt down, "This is just the minister's suggestion, whether to implement it or not, please think twice." ”

The first to react was Chu Xinran, only to see her kneeling down on her knees and raising her hand to make a gesture, "The minister seconded the proposal!" The minister asked the emperor to let the minister be the first person to voluntarily sign up for the army. Chu Xinran was excited in her heart, she had even seen the men of the Western Xia Kingdom training hard for the country.

"The minister seconded the proposal! Please ask the emperor's resign from his post as the secretary of the military department and become a recruit who voluntarily joins the army. The second one knelt down was Fu Hanche, I saw her eyes blazing, looking at the emperor with a righteous look, her eyes did not shrink, she really wanted to join the army.

After the two seconded the proposal, most of the young people in the DPRK knelt down and volunteered to be the first batch of leaders to join the army, Mo Qianling who saw it was excited, and saw Xiao Jing's eyes in addition to surprises and surprises There was also a hint of praise, in the past, he only felt that Xiao Jing was a wise woman, but now, he felt that Xiao Jing was simply a genius, a genius sent by God to help him.

However, some people just don't want Xiao Jing to be good, and they don't want Mo Qianchen and Mo Qianling to be good, and when a good proposal just comes out, it will always be poured cold water by others.

Receiving the eyes of the war king, the head of the household department Shangshu immediately stepped forward, "Lord Xiao's proposal is naturally good, but now that the treasury is empty, where can I afford such a large expense, the military department wants to eat, and the soldiers also want to eat, how can I come when I say it?" The silver did not fall from the sky, plus the comfort fee of the sacrificed soldiers, and the retirement fee of the retired soldiers, these are all large sums of silver. Hubu Shangshu was proud of the report, looking at Xiao Jing, he only felt that he was just a little child, the yellow-haired girl knew what national affairs, and she couldn't do anything without silver.

"Why didn't I know that the treasury was so tight, so I won't hold this year's birthday banquet and use it to buy things to join the army." The emperor's annual birthday banquet is very luxurious, not to mention a thousand taels of gold, and it is also a lot of money to save it!

Hubu Shangshu obviously didn't know that the emperor would make such a big determination, and he didn't even hold a birthday banquet.

"The Emperor's ......"

"Brother Chen is willing to give a thousand taels of gold to help with this~" Mo Qianchen clenched his fists, a thousand taels of gold is nothing to him, anyway, the people of the whole country know that he is rich, and he is not afraid of showing off his wealth.

Xiao Jing smiled slightly, looking at the two of them, they were really old foxes......

"The minister is willing to take out 100,000 taels from the dowry to fund this matter...... "Anyway, the silver is also put away, Xiao Jing has to be, and he doesn't care, but he can't expose too much."

"The minister is also willing to take out 100,000 taels from the dowry to support ......" Chu Xinran raised the corners of his mouth and stood with Xiao Jing.

"Good...... It's really my good minister......" Mo Qianling stood up excitedly and praised Xiao Jing and Chu Xinran.

In the following hours, almost all the ministers were willing to contribute funds, and the silver taels raised were more than the silver in the treasury, which was also unexpected by Xiao Jing, but it was also reasonable, and it was destined to disappoint some people.

Obviously, the king of war is not a person who gives up easily, and when he saw that Hubu Shangshu was defeated, he immediately stepped forward, "Your Majesty, this Lord Chu said that he would be the first to join the army, and this woman joined the army, is it ......?"

"The king of war is wrong, women have women's advantages, and folk women also have strong martial arts people, why can't they join the army? As long as you want, both men and women, this is the purpose of joining the army, if the emperor doesn't think Xiao Jing is stupid, Xiao Jing is willing to take charge of the affairs of female soldiers......" Xiao Jing looked serious, and he couldn't see that he was joking at all, Mo Qianling thought for a while before nodding "So...... Xiao Jing took the order! ”

"The minister takes the order!" Xiao Jing immediately knelt down.

"Imperial Doctor Xiao Jing is erudite and talented, intelligent and capable, today I will appoint you as a first-class examiner, focusing on the recruitment of female soldiers this year, I hope you can select the elite, find out talents for my Xixia, and cultivate talents." Mo Qianling walked directly in front of Xiao Jing and stretched out his hand to help her up, "Hard work, Xiao Aiqing!" ”

"For the country and the people, the minister dare not say that it is hard." Xiao Jing is righteous and awe-inspiring, and her words are scorching.

Mo Qianling nodded, and then looked at Chu Xinran, "Chu Xinran took the order!" ”

"Obey the order!" Chu Xinran's heart was beating wildly, she could guess what the emperor meant, but she didn't dare to think that today came so early, the dream was so close, so close that it was within reach.

"I named you a third-grade Zhaoxian today, and assisted Lord Xiao to handle the affairs of female soldiers, and the personnel are effective, I will send someone to assist you, I hope I won't be disappointed."

"Obey the order!" Chu Xinran was overjoyed, looked at Xiao Jing, tears couldn't help but circle in his eyes, thank you Xiao Jing, let me have the opportunity to lead the army to serve the country.

Being a female general has always been her dream, and since she met Xiao Jing, her dream has become closer and closer~

"Shangguan Lan Jin, Zhou Jinyu, Fu Hanche take the order!"

"The minister is here!" The three of them were also excited in their hearts, and they knelt on the ground and couldn't believe that all this could come true, and they could do such a big thing without spending a tael of silver from the treasury.

"The three of you are in charge of the affairs of the male soldiers, and everything is under the command of the Shengqing King, and after half a year, I will inspect the troops!"

"Yes!" This is the voice of a young man, masculine and passionate.
