Chapter 212: Drumming and Asking for Meeting
But at this moment, he is wearing the armor of the Eagle Roaring Army and has a golden feather on his head, all of which are proving to those present that he is also fighting step by step from the battlefield to get the current title and have his current status.
"Aiqing, please get up!" The emperor looked at him half-kneeling, looking directly at himself with a determined look in his eyes, and said when he spoke.
When the Marquis of Wuding heard this, he thanked him and got up, and then repeated the matter of asking for orders to lead his troops to battle.
Looking at his appearance of never giving up until he reached his goal, the emperor couldn't help frowning.
After all, the killing of prisoners by the Marquis of Wuding made the Beiwu Dynasty fall a very bad reputation, especially the Xirong tribe was not actually a large-scale invasion at that time, and the specific ins and outs of it also left no trace because of his actions, after which the Beiwu Dynasty had to take a step back with the defeated Xirong tribe to protect the reputation of the Beiwu Dynasty's benevolence.
If it weren't for the fact that Qi Yuyi had really made a lot of contributions, and because the Northern Wu Dynasty had no Nangong family at that time, he urgently needed another strong man to resist foreign enemies and establish prestige for the Northern Wu Dynasty, and the emperor would not want to give him the title of Marquis of Wuding.
Fortunately, after that, the Marquis of Wuding was very familiar with the military power, honestly stayed in the imperial palace, restrained his family, not only did not take the initiative to hold any banquets, but the people in the Marquis of Wuding rarely went to the banquets of high-ranking officials and nobles to accumulate contacts.
This made the emperor take off some vigilance against him, but he didn't expect that as soon as the battle report from the border city entered Beijing, the Marquis of Wuding actually received the news, and he also changed into this military uniform to ask for battle, and he went straight in, so that people had no chance to greet him.
Realizing that Marquis Wuding was not as unin love with power as he had shown over the years, the emperor's brows couldn't help frowning, and at the same time he had a bad premonition in his heart, and then he looked at the military department.
"Marquis Wuding, you haven't fought for many years, and this time the Xirong clan is menacing again......" The secretary of the military department received the hint from the emperor, and even opened his mouth to persuade the Marquis of Wuding.
"Li Shangshu's words are wrong!"
Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, Wu Dinghou opened his mouth to interrupt him, "Ben Hou fought horses in the first half of his life, and every battle he fought on the battlefield was kept in mind, and he didn't dare to forget each other every day. ”
His words made the military department Shangshu couldn't help but be a little speechless, after all, the other party worked hard every day, if he questioned it again, he was bound to say someone who was more capable and hardworking than him, but looking at the entire court, if there was such a person, then they wouldn't have been worried about the selection of the main general for so long just now!
Even the Murphy mentioned just now, even if his ability is sufficient, his actual combat experience is far inferior to that of Wu Dinghou!
"Marquis Wuding, I really didn't expect you to take off your armor and recuperate in the mansion for many years, but you still work so hard, people who don't know still think that you are waiting for the day when the court fights and reactivates you!"
A fourth-grade official belonging to the Ministry of War on the side couldn't help but say with some teaser when he saw that his top boss was interrupted by the other party.
What do you mean by that? Do you mean that Benhou wants the imperial court to go to war at any time? Before today, could it be that what Ben Hou did in the palace was half publicized outside?
Ben Hou is just taking precautions and preparing to shroud the body of the imperial court at any time! Could it be that this is not the consciousness that a courtier, a general, and a marquis should have? ”
Hearing the other party's words, Marquis Wuding glared angrily, and the evil aura that came out of the blood sea corpse mountain made the official's whole body tremble and retreat.
Seeing this, Shangshu of the Ministry of War stepped forward and bowed to the Marquis of Wuding, "What the Hou Ye said is very true, but fighting a war is not a matter of rushing forward with a hot head, let alone being ready to win the victory, but that bravery and strategy are indispensable, and it is necessary to judge the situation and ......."
These words are already questioning whether the other party has courage or not, after all, the other party's pit and killing of prisoners has been written into a book in the imperial capital so far, and it is talked about with relish!
"What Li Shangshu said is very true, and if the lower official is not mistaken, Hou Ye is already forty and three this year, right? Your mother just celebrated her sixtieth birthday the year before last, and your eldest grandson is already ten years old this year, and she has decided to marry in a few years, and the Marquis of Wuding Mansion will be able to live in the same house for five generations......" Luo Shixian, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, echoed on the side.
And the implication of his words is that the other party is old, even if he practices martial arts every day to strengthen his body, but after all, he is old, and this time he has to march to the front line in a hurry, and he may not be able to keep up with it physically, so it is better to stay at home and recuperate, and wait a few years to hold his great-grandson!
"It is precisely because Benhou Xianghuo has a successor, and there are no worries, so this time I have to ask the Holy Lord to fight, what is the reason why the two Shangshu are blocking Benhou like this?
Your Majesty, the battle reports from the front line have come so far, although it has only been a few days, but I don't know how many casualties will be inflicted. ”
Wu Dinghou's words made the people who originally wanted to refute immediately shut up, isn't it! The longer they stalemate here, the more unclear the situation on the front line becomes, and the easier it is to put their own side at a disadvantage, so how can they do it?
"What the Hou Ye said is very true, the emperor, the ministers please play, let the Marquis of Wuding be the commander, and lead the Eagle Howling Army and the Tiger Guard Army to the border city to support the Zhenguo Army!"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
“……”
After a while, most of the officials knelt down in the court, and their words made the emperor's face very ugly, and those who did not kneel down looked at each other a little.
They knew very well that the emperor was not willing to appoint Marquis Wu Dinghou as the commander of this time, but they couldn't think of a better candidate, and just when they were swaying left and right, another earth-shattering news came.
The son of the crown prince, who has been missing for many years and whose whereabouts are unknown, is beating drums outside the palace at this time to ask to see the saint, and claims to have a treasure that can defeat the enemy!
Hearing the news, the emperor stood up on the spot, "Who?" Who is beating the drum outside the palace to ask for a meeting? ”
"Yes...... His Royal Highness Emperor Yuan. ”
After many years, no one could have expected to hear this title in such a scene at this time, and some newly promoted officials had never heard of this title, so they couldn't help but be a little curious to inquire about the people they knew.
When they knew that the person who beat the drum was actually the son of the prince who caused the entire Nangong family to be imprisoned more than seven years ago, and his whereabouts are still unknown after being abducted by someone abducted, and he is also the only child of the prince so far, they can't help but be speechless.
