To say that Zhang Xuān has no curiosity about Tian Kexin's appearance after the veil is absolutely fake. It's just that what he values is Tian Kexin's talent and strategy, although Tian Kexin has not had much opportunity to perform - and Zhang Xuān believes that this time the western expedition, colliding with the big cannibal Ji Lie, will be when Tian Kexin really plays a role.

The real confrontation between the two armies, the collision of two powerful powers, and the confrontation of large corps, Tian Kexin's strategy can make up for the lack ♀ of Guo Ziyi's strategy is the main factor that Zhang Xuān has always taken Tian Kexin by his side.

As for Tian Kexin's appearance, it doesn't matter≥ but Tian Kexin is extremely ugly, and it can't affect her status in Zhang Xuān's mind at all.

However, Tian Kexin suddenly lifted the veil, and for Zhang Xuān, it was not Chenran to a point that stunned him.

His gaze froze, and an incomparably beautiful face appeared in front of him, a face that made people amazed at first sight, far more beautiful than Zhang Xuān imagined. But beauty is beautiful, but on this beautiful face, the eye sockets are deeply sunken and the bridge of the nose is high, and the eyes of Hazel Sè are flickering, full of endless exotic style.

Zhang Xuān was stunned, couldn't help but Huo Ran got up, raised his hand and pointed at Tian Kexin and said in surprise, "You...... Who are you? ”

Zhang Xuān never expected that behind Tian Kexin's veil was a face of ♀ a woman of different races, which made him feel a little unbelievable.

Tian Kexin fell to the ground and sighed lightly, "Your Majesty, Kexin has no intention of deceiving. Kexin's mother is a Turkic dancer, and she gave birth to Kexin with her father overnight, and then died. The father did not despise Kexin because of the humble status of Kexin's biological mother, and tried his best to raise Kexin and vigorously cultivate Kexin......"

Zhang Xuān sat down slowly, and after a moment of shock, he had already accepted Tian Kexin's face. Tian Kexin actually has Turkic ancestry, although she was surprised, it was not an unacceptable result÷ in fact. In this era of openness, intermarriage and marriage between various ethnic groups have children. It's too ordinary to be ordinary.

"Hehe, I didn't expect that Kexin would have Turkic blood." Zhang Xuān smiled, "It's that I'm speechless and out of shape." ”

Tian Kexin raised her head and stared at the emperor, and said quietly and resolutely, "Kexin took off her veil today, thank Your Majesty for the grace of canonizing Kexin's father, please don't dislike Kexin rude!" ”

Tian Kexin's words were full of faint helplessness and ambiguous hints. Obviously, I want to recommend myself for a pillow seat. She fell into the misunderstanding of thinking under Guo Ziyi's misdirection, thinking that the reason why the emperor has been unwilling to canonize Tian Chenghei is because he has thoughts about her, and now the emperor has taken the initiative to canonize Tian Chenghei, which obviously means that he has to pierce this layer of window paper - Tian Kexin had no choice but to take off the veil, which can be regarded as resignation.

She was born to a Turkic dancer, and her mother was of a lowly status. If it weren't for Tian Chenghe's care and upbringing. She simply couldn't survive. Therefore, in her mind, Tian Chengsi is both a father and a benefactor. For the sake of the future and fate of her father and family, she can't help but make a choice.

Zhang Xuān was greatly embarrassed.

He let out a sigh of relief, avoided Tian Kexin's clear and deep eyes, and said with a wry smile, "Kexin, you go back to rest first, it's late at night, I ...... I really don't think anything else. You're too careful. Go, go! ”

Zhang Xuān waved his hand.

Tian Kexin was stunned, and then her face turned red.

She has been following the emperor for a long time, and she knows the emperor's love very well, and when she sees the emperor in such a state at this moment, she knows that she has misunderstood. When she thought of this, she couldn't help but be embarrassed. Quickly bowed his head and thanked him, got up and hurried away in embarrassment, leaving her veil on the ground as he left.

Guo Fu was actually standing at the entrance of the hall waiting, listening to the movement inside, and saw Tian Kexin rushing out. couldn't help but chuckle and said, "Sister Kexin~ But it created an opportunity for you, you didn't seize it yourself, don't blame the slave for not helping in the future-ah, Sister Kexin, what about your veil!" ”

Tian Kexin's face was crimson, and she hid her face and left.

Behind him, Guo Fu's crisp laughter came back to dàng in the night sky.

……

……

After the Shangyuan Festival, Liangzhou City entered the countdown to the busy army. Inside and outside the city, soldiers shuttled back and forth, the trumpets of the military camp contended, the war horses neighed, and all kinds of heavy grain and grass were piled up outside the city.

Since the first night of the first year, although Tian Kexin still wears a veil, she no longer shy away from some close people. In addition to Guo Fu, even Su Hudong and Li Tengkong also knew that she had Turkic blood and was a mixed-race beauty. Of course, there are still not many people among the foreign ministers who know about it.

In order to avoid embarrassment, Tian Kexin went directly out of the city and lived in the barracks. In the Western Expeditionary Army, she will serve as the "Chief of General Staff" of the Western Expedition Marching Army, and the general counselor of the military division of the Western Expedition, and become the most important staff member of Guo Ziyi, the commander of the army.

The emperor drove the expedition in person, and the commander of this march was naturally the emperor's name. But it is impossible for the emperor to personally act as the agent of the march, so the matter of the march must be controlled by Guo Ziyi, Tian Kexin is equivalent to Guo Ziyi's adjutant, and has the power to play the emperor and the counselor's military aircraft.

On this expedition, Guo Ziyi, Nan Jiyun, Lei Wanchun, and Li Siye all had to go with the army, which was the most effective general marked by the emperor. The emperor had already issued an edict to urgently transfer Fugu Huaien to the west together, mainly to allow Fugu Huaien to replace Cheng Qianli, guard the northern court and pacify the situation in the Western Regions.

Fugu Huaien is already on the way, and it is estimated that he will arrive in Hexi in three or two days, and there will be 20,000 flying leopard troops with him.

Replacing Fugu Huaien to guard Fan Yang was the Yulin general Zhang Tong∨ who was also one of the founding fathers of the founding of the country from Zhang Xuān, and his daughter was also the imperial concubine, which was one of the ministers under Zhang Xuān who could be reused and trusted.

Tian Chengsi thus left Fan Yang and took over Zhang Tong's position, but in fact, there was not much actual military power, and the real military power in the capital was still in the hands of Yan Zhenqing. However, for Tian Chenghe, this is already very satisfying.

The general of Sanpin is also a powerful person in the capital, and no one dares to underestimate him. Moreover, his daughter is by the emperor's side, and she has been regarded by many people as the emperor's forbidden and future imperial concubine.

On the first day of the third month of the third year of Yongning, Fugu Huaien finally led the army to arrive outside Liangzhou.

The frequent movement of troops and horses outside Liangzhou City, the local people and the merchants in the city have long been surprised, so the arrival of the 20,000 people in Fugu Huai'en did not cause much trouble, and even lacked the necessary attention.

Fugu Huaien galloped into the city with two of his own soldiers and went straight to the "palace".

Hearing that Fugu Huaien had arrived, Zhang Xuān laughed and personally led Guo Ziyi, Zhang Xun and others to greet him at the mouth of the main hall.

Seeing that the emperor actually came out to greet him in person, he was shocked, and hurriedly ran over and knelt on the ground and said loudly, "The minister greets Your Majesty, how dare the minister Lao Your Majesty drive out to greet him, and he is so frightened!" ”

Zhang Xuān smiled slightly, and motioned for Nan Jiyun to step forward and help Fu Gu Huaien up.

"Fugu Huai'en, I urgently summoned you to lead the army to help in the war, do you know my intentions?" Zhang Xuān smiled lightly.

Fugu Huaien shook his head, "I don't know, please make it clear to Your Majesty!" ”

To tell the truth, Fugu Huaien was somewhat unhappy with the emperor's transfer of him away from Fan Yang. He sat in Fanyang, and was about to show his skills, govern the town of Fanyang into a prosperous place, and even expand his sphere of influence to the land of Xi and Dongyi, and even Heng Goryeo was included in his business plan, but at this time, the emperor transferred him away with an edict, and he could not be depressed.

"Guo Xiang." Zhang Xuān glanced at Guo Ziyi.

Guo Ziyi smiled knowingly, and hurriedly explained in detail the situation in the Western Regions and the serious dereliction of duty of Cheng Qianli in the Northern Court, which led to the infiltration of most of the Beiting by the Tuqi Shi forces and concealed it from the imperial court.

Zhang Xuān smiled indifferently, "After thinking about it, this land of Beiting Anxi is very important, and there is only Qing in the world who has the ability to manage this vast land." ”

"I conquered the Western Regions, but military deterrence can only maintain temporary stability, and long-term stability and prosperity still need to be exhausted, and I will share my worries. Feng Chong will also go out with me, and I intend to merge Anxi and Beiting into the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion of the Western Regions, govern the three provinces and 36 states, and entrust all the important military and political affairs of the Western Regions to Yu Qing, I don't know what you think? ”

Fugu Huaien deeply felt the emperor's trust, the Western Regions and the Northern Court merged, and in the future, he would rule the entire Western Regions, at least the size of ten Fan Yang, and the emperor could give him such a heavy responsibility, which was enough to explain everything.

Fugu Huai'en felt a sigh of relief, knelt on the ground and shouted in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty Emperor Enhao dàng, the ministers should be for Your Majesty's liver and brain!" ”

As a general of the Hu people, Fugu Huai'en's position of power will thus reach a peak, and no one can match it among the local officials under the emperor. Moreover, he and Yang Lian are also the only local princes in the world who control the integration of administrative and military power, and their status is far beyond the reach of An Sishun and others.

Of course, the implementation of unified military and political power in such special areas as the two provinces of Tibet and the Western Regions was only an expedient measure of Zhang Xuān, and the trend in the future is to separate the military and the government. In Zhang Xuān's plan, ten years later, the towns of the Tianxia Terracotta Domain will gradually become purely military commanders, with the right to stabilize border defense and local security, but not the right to interfere in administrative governance.

Most of the current local feudal towns have actually promoted the separation of military and political affairs.

"I don't need you to be stupid, I just need you to do your duty! I have destroyed Tubo and handed it over to Yang Lian, and I will soon pacify the entire Western Regions and bring the Western Regions into the governance of the imperial court, and I will hand over the Western Regions to you! If you can manage the Western Regions well and not cause chaos, it is a great achievement, and I will never treat you badly in the future. ”

Zhang Xuān leaned down, personally helped up Fugu Huaien, and said lightly.

"Okay, spread my will, and set out on an expedition the day after tomorrow to crusade against the Western Regions!" Zhang Xuān waved his hand abruptly and strode away.

Not long after, in the military camp outside the city, there was a melodious and loud sound of military horns, and the three armies of the Shence Army, the Shenwu Army, and the Flying Tiger Army, as well as the 50,000 military horses and the 20,000 Flying Tiger Army of Fugu Huai'en, immediately packed up their swords and guns, picked up the equipment and baggage, and made the final preparations before the expedition.
