"It is a great honor for His Royal Highness Sixth to be able to visit the General's Mansion in his busy schedule, and I am honored to do it first." With that, he took another sip of the wine in his glass.

The sixth prince also tilted his neck and drank the wine in the cup: "General Punishment, you're polite." General Xing is heroic, and it is really my Liu Xun's luck to be able to make friends with heroes like General Xing. ”

Fang Chen bowed and bowed: "Your Highness is serious." ”

"This one seems pretty good." After toasting, Fang Chen said to Cen Ruoxi with a smile. From beginning to end, he didn't see Cen Ruoxi frowning a bit, obviously this was much better than the previous two.

"This person is the same on the outside and on the inside, a corporal of Lixian, but he has a bit of a gentleman's demeanor. In the future, if the three princes intend to win over, only this person is the most reliable. Cen Ruoxi expressed her judgment.

The two toasted again, Cen Ruoxi had been observing, and then told Fang Chen which was sincere and which was false. After a round, hundreds of glasses of wine were down, Fang Chen's face was slightly red, and he was also a little drunk.

Seeing that the two were talking and laughing, Su Xiaojing stepped forward and said, "What are you saying so happy?" ”

Fang Chen snorted wine and said: "Ruoxi can also be called a virtuous helper, after a circle of wine, he actually helped me distinguish which is the enemy and which is the friend......" When he saw Su Xiaojing's face suddenly gloomy, Fang Chen hurriedly stopped, and he hugged Su Xiaojing: "Of course, Jing'er is also quite good, decisive and well-organized, and she will definitely take care of the affairs of the family in an orderly manner in the future." Where to find such a beautiful and gentle virtuous helper? ”

He praised her here, and Cen Ruoxi was unhappy again. Fang Chen borrowed the strength of the wine and hugged one of them: "You two are my good helpers." ”

Cen Ruoxi also wanted to ask Fang Chen: "Do you treat me as a wife or a sister?" But he heard a slight snoring sound from Fang Chen.

After the two helped Fang Chen to the room to fall asleep, they waited for a while, and saw that Fang Chen was sleeping soundly, so they left separately. After the two left, Fang Chen sat up, although he drank a little too much, but he was not drunk. Just now he was running away from Cen Ruoxi and Su Xiaojing. After getting along for a long time, Fang Chen actually knew an important answer, his affection for Cen Ruoxi had already exceeded the relationship between brother and sister, but Su Xiaojing and Cen Ruoxi were good at everything, but both of them were vinegar jars, which gave him a bit of a headache. So sometimes he can only pretend to be crazy and stupid to escape. It's just that this kind of evasion is a head in what year and month.

Fortunately, he will not have to face such a complicated emotional situation soon. The Qiang people launched a war, and early the next morning, the emperor announced Fang Chen to the main hall.

It was the first time for Fang Chen to stand on top of the main hall, and a military general as young as him and with such a high official rank might be the first since the founding of the country. Liu Heng, the supreme ruler of the Tianlong Empire, sat on the high Jinluan Palace, and the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs stood in a large hall, but there were so many people, and the entire hall was silent and orderly.

Liu Heng looked at the fold in his hand, with an angry face: "Over the years, I have treated Qiang very well, but this group of rebels and thieves actually took advantage of the war between my Tianlong Empire and the surrounding countries, took advantage of the fire to rob, and attacked our two cities in succession. Is it tolerable or unbearable, who is willing to lead the lion of my Tianlong Empire to recapture the city and set foot on the Qiangyou. ”

The crowd looked at each other, but no one said anything. Some time ago, the Celestial Dragon Empire went to war with many surrounding countries in succession, and all the generals who could be used were sent out. Those who remained in Kyoto were a few civil officials and some generals with lower ranks. Qiang is brave and good at fighting, and this time he participated in the war with the strength of the whole country, and the number of troops reached 500,000. Although this is a good opportunity to make meritorious contributions, it is also a hard bone to gnaw.

In fact, Liu Heng had expected this situation for a long time, so he held that competition some time ago in order to select some new forces to fill this gap.

After a short silence, He Jingyi stood up: "Raising soldiers for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, the emperor's grace is mighty, we are waiting for Tian to be in a high position, and we should share the worries of the king." It's just that the old minister has recently had a cold. After a few days, the old minister recovered from his illness and was willing to personally lead the troops to crusade against the Qiang people. As he spoke, he coughed several times.

Although Liu Heng didn't want the He family's power to be too great, there were no generals in the court now, so he could only rely on them. Hearing He Jingyi shirk like this, there was a look of disappointment in his eyes: "Aiqing is old and in poor health, so the heavy task of crusading against Aiqing will not bother Aiqing." ”

As soon as Liu Heng's words were finished, He Jingyi spoke again: "My Tianlong Empire has many talents, and heroic young characters abound. Lao Chen has a proposal, Fang Chen is young and has outstanding martial arts, it is better to let him lead 50,000 imperial lions to fight in the front first, wait for Lao Chen's recovery from his illness, and then go to reinforcements.

The heads of several other families secretly cursed in their hearts, this old fox, this is to retreat as advance, he first let others take the lead, throwing stones to ask for directions. Once the situation went well, he used his illness as an excuse to lead the troops into battle, and the credit would be his.

In fact, He Jingyi's calculations are far more than that, he wants to announce his personal vendetta. With 50,000 troops against 500,000 Qiang people, that is not the same as letting Fang Chen die.

Liu Heng hesitated, although the purpose of this competition was to select reserve forces, but these people were inexperienced after all, if they were allowed to serve as a deputy general, a general and the like would be successful in fighting and making meritorious contributions. If you directly let them directly lead an army, I am afraid that it will be a bit difficult, and a large number of elite imperial lions will be buried in vain.
