The court was like a hot oil pot, noisy, Zheng Jin did not express his opinion, but Zheng Ying's clear opposition attracted Zheng Jin's attention.

But Zheng Jin didn't put too much thought into the matter of women going on the expedition, for Zheng Jin, this is a big event that challenges his worldview, but since his father has responded, there is nothing to argue. When a woman joins the army, he can't get used to it and it doesn't matter, anyway, his father and the emperor should do it, and Zheng Jin doesn't want to disobey the emperor's wishes.

And for him, there are more important things to pay attention to at the moment, there is Yushi who has just participated in his uncle's corruption, and Lin Xiang's family illegally bought and sold land in Songcheng, which is a big deal for Zheng Jin!

As for the emperor, he silently looked at the excited courtiers, silent, but insisted on his own opinion. He really planned to send the little girl of the Mu family to the battlefield. In the emperor's opinion, since Mrs. Mu herself proposed to send her granddaughter on the expedition, this little girl should also have some ability, but even if she has no ability, the emperor doesn't mind, what he wants is such a target.

At the beginning, the emperor really didn't expect that Mrs. Mu would propose to send her granddaughter to the north to fight in the north, but from his point of view, he felt that it was Mrs. Mu who wanted to gamble with the Ministry of Rites and Shangshu before proposing to send her granddaughter on the expedition.

But an accident is an accident, and the emperor is quite happy to see it happen. After the Ministry of Rites Shangshu proposed to make peace and cede the land, the emperor knew in his heart that there would definitely be many courtiers who would echo it. There will be more controversy in the court in the future.

For the emperor himself, this game of chess must be played carefully. If the tax reform is to be implemented, it is absolutely impossible to negotiate peace and withdraw from the army, but it is also not possible to be too radical and offend the courtiers too much, so someone has a thunderbolt in front, which is the best choice for the emperor.

The little girl and woman of the Mu family went on the expedition, which challenged the etiquette and values that the Great Zhou Dynasty had always pursued, and was bound to cause controversy and resistance among the courtiers, at least to divert the attention of some court officials from the controversy over tax reform and whether to negotiate peace.

Moreover, what satisfied the emperor the most was that the Mu family sent their only granddaughter to the expedition, so they tried their best to insist on resisting the enemy, which really provided the emperor with an excellent excuse for prevarication. In the future, no matter who has any objections to the continuous war in the north, or to oppose round after round of "donations", the emperor can take the little girl of the Mu family out as an excuse.

What a perfect ready-made word resource! "Look at the Anguo Mansion, even the only granddaughter has been sent to the battlefield, is it possible that you courtiers who eat the country are not as good as a girl?"

Therefore, the emperor was really happy, he nodded on the spot, agreed with Mu Hongsheng to go on the expedition, and asked her to set off with General Zhenguo, first temporarily under General Zhenguo as a captain vanguard, and when he arrived in the north, he was directly under the command of Duke Anguo, and the grade remained unchanged.

The emperor thinks very well, whether the little girl's ability is reliable or not, he can't be sure. When she arrived in the north, she was directly left to her father to be responsible for the arrangement, and the emperor did not bear this responsibility, and everything was handed over to An Guogong to be responsible. When they arrived in the north, An Guogong was willing to let his daughter fight, then he would fight, if he was unwilling, even if he stayed in Yanzhou Jingluo Mansion to cook on fire, it was not the emperor's business.

In the final analysis, the emperor actually didn't trust Mu Hongsheng's ability, and he didn't think that women could really go to the battlefield to fight, but he didn't care whether Mu Hongsheng could fight or not, he sent Mu Hongsheng out so happily, the political significance was greater than the military significance.

In order to make this political benchmark look better, the emperor gave Mu Hongshang a lieutenant on the spot and ate six grades. At this moment, not only the civil servants blew up, but the generals were also unhappy. At such a young age, he has no military merits at all, and he was actually made a captain, which is unheard of, not to mention that this is still a girl.

You must know that Mu Zhengyi, the eldest brother of the little girl of the Mu family, is just a six-pin cloud riding captain. Why is she, the little girl of the Mu family?

However, the emperor seemed to see the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal, and patted his head and gave Mu Hongsheng a number - General with red makeup.

As soon as I heard this number, I was very sloppy but I didn't think about it, but the emperor said that Mu Hongsheng was the red-makeup general of the Great Zhou Dynasty from this moment on, even if the courtiers were excited, the emperor did not mean to take back his fate.

The courtiers were all angry because their values were challenged, but only Zheng Ying was really anxious, and he sincerely wanted to stop Mu Hongsheng from going on the expedition at all costs. What is the situation in the north, he knows best, how can he watch Mu Hongsheng go to the battlefield?

"Father! Father think twice! Zheng Ying was so anxious that his face changed, he walked to the front desperately, and played loudly: "I am a famous general of the Great Zhou, not only the Mu family, but also the generals of Jin Lingwei, as well as several families with military merits and knighthoods, can all go to the battle." In any case, there is no need for Miss Mu to join the army as a girl. Father, the emperor, the sons and daughters implore you to take back your order. ”

Zheng Ying said, kneeling straight in front of the throne.

"King Shin is right! It's nonsense! Zheng Ying's words attracted the echo of the ministers, and everyone knelt down with Zheng Ying, making Zheng Ying quite a bit of a response, Zheng Jin saw it, and quickly knelt down with Zheng Ying, he couldn't let Zheng Ying be so showy. The emperor took a look...... More satisfied.

What the emperor wants is for his sons and courtiers to stand together, and he wants to ensure the prestige and status of the prince in the eyes of the courtiers. As for him...... It's just a reputation, what's the big deal.

"I have made up my mind, there is no need to discuss this matter anymore," the emperor waved his hand, stood up directly from the throne, patted his ass and left, leaving a large group of noisy courtiers in the Chongzheng Palace.

Jiang Shangshu of the household department was mixed in the middle of a group of courts, stretched his neck to watch the emperor leave, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart. The emperor is the emperor, so he challenges the bottom line and tolerance of the courtiers step by step, and he is accurate.

At present, the crowd is excited, and they are all clamoring about the eldest lady of the Mu family joining the army, but no one cares about the topic of "donation" anymore. It's just a pity that Miss Mu, such a good girl, was forced by the situation to have to go to the north, this life is ruined!

But...... Grandpa Guo should be able to take care of his daughter, right??

That's right. Until now, Jiang Wenbin and Jiang Shangshu still believe that Mu Hongsheng went to the battlefield because of the sacrifice made for the sake of the court. He sighed and sighed, and even had deep sympathy for Mu Hongsheng, that is, he didn't think that Mu Hongsheng was really able to go to the battlefield to fight.

Women...... How is it possible to have the ability to fight?!
