Chapter 239: Petition for Expedition
Emperor Tianwei listened to Zhou Mingjing's words, and nodded his head incessantly, and it could be seen that he agreed with Zhou Mingjing's opinion.
Such an arrangement is the best arrangement, if once the Hu people's rebellion is explained to the courtiers, it will definitely make people panic.
The Celestial Empire has a large number of soldiers, and it is not difficult to send out a few large armies casually to take down the Hu people and subdue the Hu people.
"Father, the son thinks that Lord Zhou has the best opinion," Su Zimo also agreed with Zhou Mingjing's opinion.
"Okay, then do it according to Lord Zhou's wishes, it's better to do this quietly, according to your opinion, who is the most suitable person to lead the troops to rehabilitate the Hu clan?" Emperor Tianwei asked everyone again.
The three of you, you look at me, I look at you, and they didn't say anything.
The Pinghu clan is just a trivial matter, no matter which general leads the troops, it is a matter of military merit, and whoever goes, it is the same.
Emperor Tianwei has always favored his sons, sending a general, and then sending a prince to accompany him, so it is most appropriate for the general to make meritorious contributions and the prince to take credit. Besides, sending out a prince to go on an expedition can also greatly boost morale.
Su Zimo and King Duan knelt on the ground at the same time.
"Father, the son is willing to petition to go on the expedition."
The two of them said at the same time, seeing their son like this, a smile appeared on Emperor Tianwei's face.
His four sons, although they have their own strengths and weaknesses, are all very filial to him in the end.
"Father, Zimo is unwell and has always been weak, this is a well-known thing. The son is the elder brother, and the younger brother must not be allowed to take such a dangerous risk, so the son asked his father for permission and let the son lead the army to the battle. Duanwang picked it up again.
"Father, sons and ministers are also willing to share their father's worries." In the next words, Su Zimo didn't say anything, he took a step back, didn't King Duan say it? He's not in good health, he's really in bad health.
"Good son." Emperor Tianwei praised the two again.
"Your Majesty, because this matter needs to be prepared privately, Princess Hua is about to give birth, and she definitely needs the prince to stay by her side, in the opinion of the minister, this expedition, it is best to let Duan Wang Ye go, after all, there is nothing to do in his house, as for marrying a side concubine, Princess Duan is alone in the house, and this matter can be handled properly." Zhou Mingjing said it to this point.
Duan Wang's mouth grinned slightly.
"When the national disaster is at hand, the side concubine of the son-in-law can marry or not." Duanwang's timely statement. In order to let Zhou Mingjing say a few more good words for him, he can only do this.
Zhou Mingjing's eyes showed a wave of disdain for King Duan. They all think of his daughter as that, and they are embarrassed to say this here?
Duanwang's heart is simply incomprehensible.
"The side concubine is also going to be married, and it is also a big deal to spread the branches for the royal family, you see that my father-in-law and I are both old, and there are children born, you young people, you must work harder." Emperor Tianwei praised Zhou Mingjing like this.
He is different from Zhou Mingjing, he is the Son of Heaven, he can do anything, Zhou Mingjing is a good model in the Heavenly Empire, it is simply incomparable.
Zhou Mingjing smiled awkwardly.
"Okay, the matter of the expedition will be handed over to King Duan. After a while, after the court meeting ended, I issued a secret order to General Liu of the Jingdong Battalion, asking him to order troops and generals, listen to your dispatch, and tomorrow on the fifth watch, you will lead the troops to the battle. Emperor Tianwei nodded.
Hearing that Emperor Tianwei had given such a holy order, King Duan couldn't hide the joy in his heart. Zhou Mingjing looked at his joy and couldn't help sneering.
Originally, when he didn't compare, he felt that Duanwang was extremely good, but now, Duanwang and Su Zimo stood together and compared, it was simply heaven and earth, although Duanwang was his son-in-law, but in the end, his son was held in Su Zimo's hands, son and daughter, he naturally wanted to choose his son.
"Brother Duanwang, this expedition, I have worked hard for you, and I will entrust you with my father's country. Please also bother Brother Duanwang. After Su Zimo said this, he actually bent his knees and wanted to bow down to King Duan.
Emperor Tianwei stared at King Duan tightly, wanting to see what he would do next, until Su Zimo's knee knelt down, and King Duan reached out and helped Su Zimo up.
"Protecting the country for my father, this is the responsibility of my sons, I am a celestial dynasty, how can I allow foreign races to invade?"
What King Duan said was high-sounding, and there was no mistake at all. It's just that the next words in the back made Emperor Tianwei a little displeased: "The ancestor's country is passed into the hands of my father, if I lose an inch, how can I wait to see my ancestor?" ”
When Emperor Tianwei heard this, his face turned cold. Even if he loses the country of the Heavenly Empire, it is also the responsibility of Emperor Tianwei, a little Duan Wang, who used the words of how to meet the ancestor to aggravate his guilt, why should he?
It's just that Emperor Tianwei didn't show too much in the end. Zhou Mingjing looked at Emperor Tianwei's face, and he already understood a little in his heart.
The wolf ambition of this Duan King has long been unable to hide it, Emperor Tianwei pays too much attention to him, and his every move will become a taboo in Emperor Tianwei's heart. It seems that he did something wrong when he married his daughter to King Duan and worked hard to support him.
The sun rose, Emperor Tianwei walked forward with the support of Su Zimo, and the ministers were already waiting in the main hall, just waiting for Emperor Tianwei to arrive and preside over the government.
"Zimo, why did you kneel to King Duan just now?" Emperor Tianwei asked as if unintentionally.
Su Zimo hurriedly answered: "Kneel down to Brother Duanwang so that he can protect his father's country with all his heart." When the father's country is stable, the sons can live a good life, the people will sing praises for their father, and the Celestial Empire will be stable for a hundred years. For the sake of long-term thinking, I am worried about my father. It is understandable that the sons and daughters knelt down to Brother Duanwang. ”
Hearing this, Emperor Tianwei couldn't stop nodding, he turned his face back, and looked at Su Zimo's face deeply, it seemed that there were too many words to come out of his mouth.
Zimo, if your body can be a little better, how good would it be?
Zimo, if you hadn't married a daughter of a different race, how good would it be?
Alien race, in the end, is the jealousy of Emperor Tianwei. If Concubine Yue and King Rui hadn't come out of this matter, he might have let down his guard a little, but now, as soon as this incident came out, he was even more determined in his thoughts.
The rivers and mountains of the Celestial Empire still have to be passed into the hands of the orthodox heirs of the Celestial Empire.
"Good boy, your filial piety, I understand." Emperor Tianwei stared at Su Zimo, he took Su Zimo's hand and walked forward.
Along the way, Su Zimo was silent, he observed Emperor Tianwei's face, acting cautiously, but there was nothing pretentious.
