Chapter 435: The Empress's Harem (54)
Outside the southwestern frontier, there were several tribes, those who were nomadic, grass-dwelling, and those who were tall and strong, and because they had learned to ride horses from an early age, they had excellent skills in fighting on horses.
Those people are tyrannical and will always harass the frontier from time to time, the light is just to plunder some property, and the heavy is to kill and plunder all kinds of evil.
What is hateful is that there are a lot of them, and their force is also extremely strong, ordinary Yanguo people are not opponents at all, even if they are three enemies and one, they may not be able to beat them, let alone equestrianism.
I can't beat it, I can't catch up with it, not to mention how annoying it is.
Before Xuanyuan Xiao went to the southwest, it was a chaotic place, and people lost their lives all the time, but she finally suppressed those people during the ten years she went.
"Do you have a suitable candidate?" Yi Qian asked lightly.
At this moment, the people below were dumb.
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and I was silent for a long time.
Finally, someone stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, according to the old minister...... Only General Xuanyuan has such ability, so it's better to ......"
She lowered her head, but she was secretly looking at His Majesty's expression.
This person is Liu Feng, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and this matter is also her part, and she has nowhere to hide if she wants to, so she has to bite the bullet.
Yi Qian looked back at her expressionlessly.
Liu Feng shuddered for a moment, and hurriedly secretly glanced at the diagonal back.
"Your Majesty, what Lord Liu said is reasonable, General Xuanyuan is brave and strategic, and there has never been chaos in the past ten years in the southwest, except for her, I'm afraid no one can keep the border safe!"
"Yes, Your Majesty......"
These ministers of the imperial court are also gangs, Liu Feng has been in power for many years, and there must be people who are good friends with him, and those people have helped out when they saw this.
Yi Qian didn't say a word, but his eyes looked at the person behind him who had never spoken-
"Xuanyuan Aiqing, what do you think of this matter?"
When she said this, the audience fell silent.
Everyone turned their heads to look behind them.
There stood a woman in her thirties, dressed in an official uniform, with a solemn complexion, a little cold, and her eyebrows were even more fierce.
This is Wang Fu's aunt, General Xuanyuan Xiao.
The perennial garrison campaign made her skin a little rough, and she also had a ruthless color that ordinary ministers did not have.
Hearing Yi Qian's name, she stepped out of the ranks, bowed down and said, "Xuanyuan Xiao, but by His Majesty's orders." ”
The ministers couldn't help but laugh.
"Your Majesty, you see, General Xuanyuan is also willing."
"Exactly, there is no more suitable person for this matter except her."
Xuanyuan Xiao lowered her head and pursed her lips silently, but she sighed in her heart.
She had just returned to the DPRK, and she had already received the latest news from the Xuanyuan family.
Although His Majesty accepted her nephew Yi'er as the prince's husband, he has always treated him coldly, and the position of the prince's husband exists in name only, and I don't know how many people in the harem and the previous dynasty are watching his jokes.
Xuanyuan Xiao knew that her nephew was tall and strong, and his appearance was not good, and some people even secretly said that he was ugly, but even so, her nephew was still cute and lively when she was a child in her heart.
He doesn't look good, he doesn't have a good temperament, His Majesty doesn't like him and pampers others, Xuanyuan Xiao is understandable.
After all, women love beauty a lot, but the nephew himself is not good-looking, and he sits in a position as high as the prince's husband, so it is inevitable that others will talk about it.
But Xuanyuan Yi is the only son of the Xuanyuan family after all, and he is also the heart of the family!
