Emperor? ”

Su Chengtuo saw that Shen Cuobai didn't answer for a long time, and couldn't help but call softly again. Although he is in a high position, it is also difficult to disarm and return to the field at this time.

Shen Cuobai: "Huh? After a while, he continued, "I finished reading the recital in my hand and discussing it with Aiqing." ”

"Yes," Su Chengtuo replied helplessly, he was in power, and he should have been domineering, but at this time, he still had to ask for help, and Su Chengtuo was still a little weak-hearted. Even if you are stupid, you can understand that at this time, the war between the Eastern Qi Frontier and the Daduan Frontier is tight, and the young generals of the Eastern Qi Dynasty are something that everyone knows.

In a flash, it was another cup of tea, and Shen Cuobai said that after reading a piece of music in his hand, before he put it down, Su Chengtuo didn't dare to say much, so he could only wait quietly. Seeing that the light outside was getting less and less, Shen Cuobai had just put down the music in his hand, and Su Chengtuo couldn't wait to get up and salute Shen Cuobai.

"Your Majesty, the old minister's heart to resign and go into hiding is already very firm, even if the emperor wants to stop the old minister, he still can't change the old minister's original intention. This Eastern Qi court, the old ministers respect, but they are powerless to help! ”

Shen Cuobai knocked lightly on the desk, and when his eyes fell on Su Chengtuo's body on the ground, he was a little hesitant.

"I once remembered that Lord Su once promised the first emperor that no matter what time it was, he would help me protect the world of Eastern Qi. Why is it that now that my imperial hegemony has not stabilized, Lord Su wants to be a deserter first! ”

Su Chengtuo's face changed slightly, "Your Majesty, when the old minister promised the first emperor, he came from the bottom of his heart, and there was no half-truth, but now that the strength of Eastern Qi is getting stronger and stronger, within thirty years, the emperor will sit on the dragon chair safely." And what the minister can do, everything has been done, and now the minister only has one wish left, and he asks the emperor to fulfill it! ”

Shen Cuobai paused and slowly got up from the dragon chair.

Su Chengtuo's thirty years of sitting firmly on the dragon chair is indeed true, Dongqi is stable, as long as there is no big change, no matter what the big end is, the people of Dongqi can live and work in peace and contentment, and he Shen Cuobai can naturally sit on the dragon chair.

But thirty years is not the goal in Shen Cuobai's heart.

Shen Cuobai stretched out his hand to hold Su Chengtuo's arm, straightened Su Chengtuo's body, and said in a deep voice, "I know what Master Su means, but I don't want Lord Su to leave." I need Master Su, and Dongqi needs it. If Daduan can be recovered in the future, the whole world needs Lord Su to make contributions! ”

"The minister doesn't want to make a contribution, the minister just wants a stable life!"

Su Chengtuo's face was still firm, and the young emperor in front of him was very majestic. The emperor's qi is better than the blue of the first emperor Qing, if Su Chengtuo continues to follow Shen Cuobai, he will be honored in the future, even more than now!

But so what, when he received the news of Su Qinfeng's death, Su Chengtuo had already lost all hope in an instant.

Rao has insisted on handling all the frontier affairs clearly before coming back, but he still can't change Su Chengtuo's mind of wanting to escape the world!

"I won't allow it!" Shen Cuobai saw that he had no way to change Su Chengtuo's mind when he said so, so he could only become tough.

"The emperor must allow it!" There was a shout outside, and everyone hurriedly looked in the direction of the door. Wei Zhaohua's face was a little surprised, and he still frowned when he looked at the familiar white clothes and hats that came.

"Zhaohua? What are you doing here? Su Chengtuo asked, but with a little hope.

I don't know if Wei Zhaohua's arrival can turn things around. If you can make Shen Cuobai change his mind, it would be a great thing! But Shen Cuobai, will it change because of Wei Zhaohua?

"See the emperor, see uncle." Wei Zhaohua saluted slightly.

Shen Cuobai turned his back, "Why is the county lord of Zhaohua here, I and Lord Su are talking about business, if the county lord of Zhaohua has something, it is better to talk about it later." ”

"What Zhaohua wants to say is also about the words of the emperor and his uncle!" Wei Zhaohua spoke, his face was not afraid of Shen Cuobai's displeasure, "No matter what the reason, Zhaohua supports his uncle to retreat to the mountains and forests today, and his uncle no longer has the heart to fight on the battlefield again, how can the emperor be so strong?" ”

Cheng An on the side looked at Wei Zhaohua's appearance, with a little eagerness on his face.

At this time, Wei Zhaohua appeared to help Su Chengtuo, even if Su Chengtuo was still not sure, but Cheng'an's heart was clear. Su Chengtuo's retirement today, Shen Cuobai will inevitably agree!

But if Su Chengtuo really retired, Dongqi would be equivalent to missing his right hand.

For Shen Cuobai, he has lost even more.

"Zhaohua, the general trend of the world is not something I came by force, without Master Su in the frontier, who else can there be?"

"There's me!" Wei Zhaohua replied, but everyone present couldn't help but be shocked.

"I am the first emperor to be the lord of the county, and I enjoy the wealth of the imperial court, and the men of the Eastern Qi Dynasty are inferior to women, but there has never been a precedent for female officials. The young military general of the Eastern Qi Dynasty, the Su family Ding is not prosperous, but Zhaohua is a female stream, and she is definitely not worse than men. If the emperor believes in the vision of the first emperor and believes in Zhaohua, let Zhaohua go to the frontier! ”

Shen Cuobai's eyes widened, and he looked at Wei Zhaohua kneeling in front of him in disbelief.

How many years have I never seen Wei Zhaohua groveling like this, let alone saluting Shen Cuobai, even if it is saluting Shen Cuobai, it is only the superficial work that Wei Zhaohua will do when there are outsiders.

Now such a real kneeling, how much weight it represents, Shen Cuobai knows best.

"Zhaohua! Don't talk nonsense in this way, if the emperor wants you to go to the frontier, then the old man, the official, don't quit! Su Chengtuo took the lead in stopping him, if he had to let a junior female doll bear the consequences, that would be his biggest mistake Su Chengtuo!

wanted to stretch out his hand to help Wei Zhaohua on the ground, but saw that Wei Zhaohua still didn't have any posture to get up.

"Uncle!" Wei Zhaohua opened his mouth softly and called, "Zhaohua has been thinking about this matter for a long time, the Su family and the Wei family are all loyal ministers and good generals, and they want to protect the court and the royal family. My uncle has worked hard all his life, and there are major events in the court outside, and there are people in the Su Mansion inside, all of which are my uncle's hard work. Now that my uncle has such an opportunity, Zhaohua is naturally duty-bound! ”

But ....... "Are you a girl, the next words Su Chengtuo has not yet spoken, Wei Zhaohua already knows in his heart."

"In the hearts of the people of Eastern Qi, the county lord of Zhaohua is no longer a traditional woman. Zhaohua is nearly ten years old, and she is not a naïve and innocent girl. The experiences and insights in life are not necessarily worse than those of men. But all the emperor's decrees, the people of Eastern Qi, all obey! ”

Wei Zhaohua's words were sonorous and powerful, so loud that he forced Su Chengtuo back if he wanted to dissuade him.

There was silence in the room for a long time, not knowing how to deal with this sudden change. Zhaohua did a lot of unusual things, but handing over the entire frontier to Wei Zhaohua was equivalent to handing over half of Wei Zhaohua's Eastern Qi Jiangshan.

It's not that Shen Cuobai can't give such trust, but he is afraid that Wei Zhaohua won't be able to bear it.

Leisurely, wading into this troubled water, if Wei Zhaohua still wants to withdraw again, I don't know when it will be!

Where would the frontier guards feel convinced, the county lord of Zhaohua is noble and intelligent. It is rumored that being placed in the barracks is just a little scruples, not convincing.

"If the emperor doesn't believe Zhaohua's words, Zhaohua is willing to make a military order, Zhaohua is willing to guarantee with his own life, if he can't protect the peace of the people of Eastern Qi, Zhaohua is willing to bury himself at the border, become a ghost, and not disperse for generations!"

Shen Cuobai looked at Wei Zhaohua in front of him, although he only saw Wei Zhaohua bending down, but he could still imagine the firmness written on that face.

Military writ? Such a ruthless oath can only be said by her Wei Zhaohua!

"Cheng An! Spread my will! ”

"The world is peaceful, and Dongqi is stable. General Su, the veteran of the Three Dynasties, is very old, and he is allowed to return to seclusion. If you are willing to oppose the DPRK in the future, the Eastern Qi court welcomes it. Frontier events, can not be without the owner, Zhaohua County Lord Mao Sui recommended himself, I appreciate it very much, and the Zhaohua County Lord is promoted to a first-class official, enjoying special merits, inheriting the Qing Ping Waiting Military Power, being at ease in the frontier, and guarding the Eastern Qi! ”

When Wei Zhaohua returned to the Su Mansion with the Holy Decree, it was already midnight.

Su Chengtuo and his entourage came back early, and the entire Su Mansion, or the entire capital, already knew about Wei Zhaohua's acceptance of the title and guarding the frontier. Wei Zhaohua's face was a little trance-like, and he walked all the way back, and he was a little more tired.

Su Chengbi had been waiting for a long time, and when she saw Wei Zhaohua's figure appear, she hurriedly greeted her.

"Tell me how you, a child, suddenly thought of getting involved with your uncle! Even if the emperor doesn't allow it now, it will definitely not be delayed for long. You have been involved in this way, and the Holy Decree has been given, how can you turn back? ”

Su Chengtuo on the side had a little guilt on his face, but he couldn't speak for a long time.

Originally, Wei Zhaohua's guarding the frontier was told to Su Chengbi by his subordinates. If Su Chengtuo wants to say that he is cowardly, and finally has his niece to replace him in exchange for his own peace, wouldn't it make him feel more uncomfortable than killing him?

But the world cannot be traced, and everything has become a foregone conclusion.

"Mother," Wei Zhaohua called softly, although it was at the door, he still knelt down directly in the direction of Su Chengbi, "Please forgive my daughter for being unfilial, I will leave tomorrow, I don't know when I will be able to come back to see my mother again." I hope that the mother will take good care of herself, and she will not be in good health, and her daughter is thousands of miles away, and she is still worried. ”

A tear fell on Su Chengbi's face, and he stretched out his hand to help Wei Zhaohua on the ground, but he still didn't see Wei Zhaohua get up.
