Yan has rarely had wars since the founding of the country, and by the generation of Emperor Yan, there has been almost no accounting, as the saying goes, "Raise soldiers for a thousand days and use soldiers for a while!" But now that it's time to use the troops, Zhao Xu, the captain in charge of the troops, has repeatedly shirked it.
Emperor Yan was anxious and cold, and finally fell ill on the dragon bed due to lack of physical strength.
Today's early dynasty national teacher on behalf of the government! Jiang Li discussed with the ministers how to deal with the current situation.
Imperial Doctor Xu Guoqing was the first to stand up and accuse Taiwei Zhao of not seeking politics in his position! Wearing the title of captain and eating royal money, he does not serve the country at a critical moment! What a disloyal minister!
Xu Guoqing's words attracted the echo of several old ministers, and everyone unanimously agreed to remove Zhao Wei from his position as a lieutenant! But Zhao Wei was like an outsider, standing above the court and looking at everyone coldly, without saying a word.
In fact, the ministers knew in their hearts that Taiwei Zhao Su was personally recommended by King Qin, and although he was the minister of Yan State, Emperor Yan did not have any right to recall him.
Jiang Li waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, "Everyone! There is no point in arguing! Now that the national crisis is at hand, everyone should think of a way to get through this difficulty! Now there is a great adult who voluntarily leads troops to Xiguan to solve problems for the country? Jiang Li asked three times in a row, and the more he asked, the more chilled he became.
There are many brave men in the civil service, but they are all more than willing and not enough! Among the military attachΓ©s, Zhao Wei is the leader, and the rest are all his subordinates, Zhao Wei does not squeak, how can anyone dare to volunteer?
"The old minister is willing to lead the troops to Xiguan!" A trembling voice came from the corner of the court, and everyone turned their heads one after another.
Jiang Li smiled bitterly, "Old General Mu! You're two years older than me, and you're going to be undressed by the end of the year! It's a long way to Xiguan, how can you bear it at this age? β
The old general Mu Zheng is Mu Qingyun's grandfather! The Mu family has been loyal for several generations, Mu Qingyun's father died of illness on the way to Qin to marry Mingyue, and after the death of his son, Mu Zheng sent his young grandson to Qiyun Palace and became a loyal guard beside the prince, which shows the loyalty of the Mu family.
"Men put their family and country first! Even if my old man dies on the battlefield, it will be my glory! National Teacher! You can give advice to the emperor! Even if I, Mu Zheng, die, and my grandson Mu Qingyun! My Mu family will never watch the country ruin and die, if so, what is the difference between it and a traitor and a thief? After Mu Zheng finished speaking, he glared at Zhao Zhen fiercely.
Seeing the old general full of righteous indignation and impassionedness, a group of people were ashamed, except for Zhao Su, of course.
Jiang Li hurriedly stepped forward and shook Mu Zheng's hands, "Old general! I will convey your heart to the emperor as soon as possible! βγ
In Qiyun Palace, the dragon rhino stood by the window with his hands in his hands, and on a few peach trees outside the window, green shoots had already faintly emerged, his eyes were staring at the peach trees, but he was thinking about other things in his heart.
My father is right, "A man should put his family and country first" and he is still the crown prince of the dynasty, the future king, whether he wants to accept it or not, this is a fact!
He had already thought of a way, just waiting for Jiang Li to tell him when he came back.
The little eunuch Jixiang hurriedly ran in, "Your Highness! Someone at the door asked to see him, saying that there was news of Qiao Xiaoqiao! β
"Oh? Where are the people? The dragon rhino hurriedly turned around and ran to the door.
There was a big man in black standing outside the door, and Long Xi felt familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it.
"Where is Joe Xiaojo now?" Long Xi stared at the big man in front of him, and did not hide his eagerness.
The person who came knelt on his knees, "The subordinate is the black wind of Ling Xuan Pavilion," after speaking, he took out a white silk from his arms and handed it to Long Xi, "The pavilion master asked me to give this to His Highness, and His Highness will understand after reading it!" βγ
After reading it, Long Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then frowned deeply.
He stretched out his hand to pick up the black wind, "This king will immediately arrange for someone to pick them up!" βγ
Black Wind clenched his fists, "Your Highness! The pavilion master expected that there were many people in the palace, and the gangsters would definitely spy on them, so he specially instructed them to disguise themselves after sunset, and his subordinates would personally escort them over! Your Highness, rest assured! β
Long Rhino nodded, "That's great!" Just, be careful! β
Black Wind nodded, didn't say much, turned to leave.
"Wait!" Long Rhino stopped him, "Tell Uncle Seven Emperors!" Long Rhino owes him a favor! βγ
Black Wind turned his head to Nunu's mouth, as if smiling.
When Jiang Li returned to the National Teacher's Mansion, the dragon rhino was already waiting there.
"How?" Long Xi personally took over Jiang Li's coat.
"Except for General Mu, no one wants to lead troops to the battle!" Jiang Li looked guilty, as if it was all his fault.
Long Xi slapped the table angrily, "If you are enslaved by Qin again, the Great Yan will not become a country!" β
Jiang Li was stunned, the prince in front of him suddenly grew up, as his teacher, Jiang Li was very satisfied with his performance at this time, and finally had the appearance of a king!
"Father is right, men should put their family and country first!" Long Rhino looked at Jiang Li, his eyes were extremely determined! "National teacher! I've got it figured! βγ
Jiang Li was shocked! "Your Highness! You've figured it out! Do you really want to take Zhao Lingxin as a concubine? β
Long Xi shook his head, "I will personally lead the troops to the west!" β
"What?" Jiang Li's mouth opened wide in shock, "Your Highness! This is absolutely unacceptable! Although you know some martial arts, it was a long time ago, and you haven't practiced for a long time, and leading troops to fight is not child's play, Your Highness! βγ
"Now that the super-gang is loose and the people's hearts are depressed, if this continues, even if there is no external trouble, we ourselves will perish, I know that war is not child's play! But where can we count on anyone today? "Do you want me to watch Old General Mu go to his death?" This time, I have to go! If I can get lucky, maybe I can revive the morale of the army, if so, if I am unluckyγγγ I think Uncle Seven Emperor is more suitable to be the emperor than me! β
"Your Highness! What nonsense are you talking about? The old man disagrees, resolutely disagrees! The emperor will definitely not agree! Definitely not! Jiang Li was so anxious that she burst into tears.
Long Xi took out a handkerchief and dipped his tears for him, he looked at Jiang Li up close, and found that he was really much older, think about back then, when he worshiped him as a teacher, he was opposed by so many people, some people secretly said that Jiang Li and Lao Wang's death were inseparable, but he just trusted him, so many years have passed, and it has also been confirmed that his vision is not wrong, Jiang Li is a trustworthy teacher!
"Qiao Xiaoqiao found it?" Long Rhino leaned over and whispered in Jiang Li's ear.
"Where?" Jiang Li stood up suddenly.
"You'll be able to see her at night!" The dragon rhino raised the corners of his mouth, "However, I still have one more thing to ask for!" Great Teacher! This time Xiao Qiao comes back, you have to convince her no matter what, follow Yuan Mu back to Dongyu! Regardless of whether she is Yu Luochen or not, Yan Guo is really not peaceful at the moment! Long Xi's expression gradually became solemn, "If I leave, I am afraid that she will only die if she stays in the palace, you are old, it is a great luck to be able to take care of your father, Zhao Wei and the queen You can't fight!" β
"Your Highness! You also know the character of Xiao Qiao's girl, if she doesn't want to go, no matter how much the old man persuades her, it may be useless! β
"Just persuade her, don't tell her it's my idea!"
Jiang Li nodded, "Xiao Qiao, this girl is helpless here, it's really thanks to His Highness's care," Suddenly Jiang Li remembered something again, "Your Highness!" You're not going to like that girl, are you? β
Long Rhino's face turned red all of a sudden, and he neither admitted nor denied it.
The atmosphere was a little awkward, and Long Xi felt that he couldn't sit or stand, "I'll go back to Qiyun Palace first!" β
When Jiang Li saw the prince's appearance for the first time, he stroked his beard and laughed.
