Chapter 40: Deliberation

In the Fengluan Palace, the aromatherapy burner exudes a faint lavender fragrance, and the Queen Mother lies on the bed with her head propped up, closing her eyes and recuperating.

"Empress Dowager, the master asks to see."

"Biography~"

"Yes! Dowager! The guard got up and gave orders. In the blink of an eye, Sun Weitian walked into the hall, and the guards silently closed the door of the hall.

"The minister sees the Queen Mother~"

"Wei Tian~ How many times have I told you, I will call me aunt in private, don't be the Queen Mother, see more outside~" The Queen Mother opened her phoenix eyes slightly and looked at Sun Weitian who was kneeling on the ground.

"Yes! Aunt! Sun Weitian's tone was still cold.

"Hurry up~ How tired it is to kneel there~" The Queen Mother has long been accustomed to Sun Weitian's indifference, she knows that even for his own biological parents, Sun Weitian has never been enthusiastic.

"Aunt Xie~"

"Hmm~ How is the situation in the frontier lately?"

"Back to my aunt~ As my aunt wishes, there have been frequent wars on the frontier recently, and the Mengdan and Tuha people have joined forces to launch a continuous attack on the garrison of the imperial court. Yas secretly helped, so that those barbarians greatly increased their combat effectiveness, if they did not continue to send more troops, it is estimated that many places in the frontier will be lost. ”

"Hahahaha~ Sure enough, he is a barbarian, with brute strength and no brains. With a little tricking, it becomes a chess piece that is completely in the hands of others. If we don't make good use of it, won't we live up to their simplicity? Wei Tian~ You just continue to add fire, I want them to burn as hard as possible! The Queen Mother smiled proudly.

Yas's move was really unexpected, but it was definitely a surprise. Now even God has come to help us, which shows that what we are doing is in accordance with God's will.

Sooner or later, Jialing will come back to us, wait and see!

"Your Majesty, if we don't make a quick decision, the border region will always be unstable." Jia Zhen was silent, and no one in the entire conference hall spoke.

"Prince Yi, what do you think?" Jia Zhen looked at Jia Yi who was standing in the front row.

"I think what General Wu said is very true! If we keep defending, the barbarians will think we're scared, and they'll get even more aggressive. Then if they do not achieve their goal, they will not give up, and it will be the people of the frontier who will suffer! ”

"Hmm~ Then you say, how many troops do you want to send?"

"The minister thinks that 30,000 elite soldiers are needed to completely suppress it!"

"Then who do you say is more suitable to lead the troops?" Jiayi thought for a moment and said, "The minister thinks that General Ruan is a good candidate!" General Nguyen has been through a hundred battles, but wherever he sits, the battles have ended in victory. General Nguyen's prestige has long been known, and Chan hopes to use the general's prestige to suppress the enemy, so that we can easily make the enemy retreat. Jiayi's suggestion made the ministers present nod their heads again and again.

"Hmm~ It seems that Prince Yi's thoughts are also the thoughts of everyone present."

"No~Your Majesty~ The minister has a different suggestion!" Ruan Zhengtian, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke.

"Oh? What does Aiqing think? ”

"The minister thinks that he is not the best candidate to lead the troops, but Prince Yi is!" As soon as Ruan Zhengtian's words came out, the audience was in an uproar.

"Prince Yi has never led troops to fight, isn't it a joke to let Prince Yi go?"

"Yes~Yes~"

"Hey~ Everyone, and after listening to General Ben, it's not too late for you to object!" Ruan Zhengtian's face did not change.

"Although Prince Yi has no experience in leading troops, His Majesty can send General Wu to assist secretly. With the strength of General Wu, there is no suspense in helping Prince Yi to achieve victory. Seeing that the enemy is a novice leading the troops, there is a chance that they will have the heart of a rival, but they do not know the existence of General Wu, so wouldn't it be easier for us to win? Besides, in terms of boosting morale, Prince Yi is undoubtedly better than me. Not only that, Prince Yi can also learn the way to lead troops through this war, and Prince Yi will no longer be an inexperienced novice from now on! ”

"Hey~ That's right! Let General Wu secretly assist Prince Yi, so that not only can the barbarians be suppressed, but Prince Yi can also accumulate combat experience! ”

"Yes, yes, yes~ This move is really a double win!" Everyone thought that what Ruan Zhengtian said was very reasonable, and they all agreed.

"Hahaha~ It seems that you Aiqing agree more with General Ruan's idea? Prince Yi, what do you think? ”

Hearing General Ruan say this, the minister also thought that he was the best candidate. If you can serve Jialing and solve problems for Your Majesty, you will not hesitate! The minister is willing to lead troops to fight and suppress the barbarians! Jiayi said excitedly, and the others were even more amazed.

"Prince Yi has this heart, and the suppression of the barbarians is just around the corner!"

"Yes! Prince Yi's courage is commendable! ”

“……”

"Hmm~ Prince Yi is worthy of being the prince of Jialing, and the people of Jialing are really blessed to have a prince like you! The future of the people of the Jialing frontier will be handed over to you, and I am very relieved! ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for the compliment!"

"Hmm~Prince Yi, General Wu obeys the order~"

"The minister is here!"

"Prince Yi is the commander of this expedition, and General Wu is the deputy marshal! You will lead 30,000 elite soldiers to the battle tomorrow! ”

"Obey the order!"
