Beiyi, a nomadic people located in the north of the Mu Dynasty, has always been a problem for Emperor Mu.

If the nomads eat according to the time of day, if the cattle and sheep on the grassland are not abundant, and there is a lack of food and clothing, they will harass the people on the border of Muchao.

Although the main purpose is to loot food, the gallop of foreign men on tall horses will always hurt innocent people.

Now Beiyi has a new king, young and ambitious, who has repeatedly challenged the border.

At first, Emperor Mu thought that he was just a hairy boy and didn't pay attention to it, but now that the collusion between Beiyi and King Yong was exposed, he realized that the Beiyi Wangcheng Mansion was very deep, and he deliberately made a frivolous style, but in fact, he was secretly planning and wanted to cooperate with the inside and outside.

The picture is not even a simple food, but a country of Mu Chao.

In the early dynasty, the courtiers had been arguing and shouting for most of the day, but there was no conclusion.

Emperor Mu held the secret of Beiyi confessed by King Yong, and intended to take the opportunity to set up an ambush and invite the king into the urn, but almost no one refuted the plan.

The reason for the noise was that Mu Di wanted to personally lead the troops into battle.

"Your Majesty, your dragon body is precious, and the Beiyi people are fierce and fierce, and they can't be missed!" Some ministers spoke earnestly, with the implication that Emperor Mu insisted on going and he would die in the court.

Another courtier proposed: "Now that the eldest prince has grown up, and the previous capture of King Yong's private soldiers was the eldest prince leading the troops to fight, it can be seen that he has become a general, it is better for Your Majesty to send the eldest prince to supervise the army, and you can also show your majesty's might." ”

Although Emperor Mu was so happy, he could still listen to the words of the courtiers, and when he heard this, he first glanced at the person who proposed, who was a party of the uncle's party, and he just had the intention to resist it.

That person dared to propose the eldest prince, but looking at Si Zhouxing's previous strength, coupled with Emperor Mu's several rewards after that, the relationship between the father and son was relaxed.

That astrological prophecy, although Emperor Mu already felt that most of them referred to King Yong, and had been broken by Si Zhouxing, but thinking of the power of the mother's family behind the queen, he was still a little jealous of Si Zhouxing.

After all, Emperor Mu let go of the idea of driving the expedition in person, but the generals of the main station were still undecided.

After the court, Si Jianing had already prepared lunch and prepared dishes for Mu Di, all of which were Mu Di's favorite dishes, but he didn't have much appetite.

"Why did my father use these, but I have an unhealthy appetite, do I need to summon the imperial doctor?" Si Jianing said with some concern.

Mu Di shook his head, put down his chopsticks and sighed, "No need, it's just a military worry." ”

For the princess who has been favored since childhood, Mu Di's heartstrings are the most relaxed, and he told her about the quarrel in the court.

Since childhood, Jianing has shown extraordinary intelligence, not only the daughter's piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are excellent, but even the history books and strategies read by men are not inferior.

After a long time, Mu Di also likes to talk to Jianing about some national conditions.

After hearing this, Si Jianing pondered for a moment, and suddenly knelt down and said: "My daughter is willing to fight with the army and share her father's worries!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Mu Di was stunned, "How did one of your daughters go to the battlefield?" ”

"Father, in the past dynasties of the Mu Dynasty, although there are not many female generals who have joined the army, it is not nothing, and the Hua family of the previous dynasty has produced many brave female generals who fought for the country." Si Jianing said eloquently, "Besides, my daughter didn't go to the battlefield, but just traveled with the army to help the emperor." ”

If Emperor Mu didn't want Si Zhouxing to go to the battlefield because he was afraid of the uncle behind him, Si Jianing, although he and Si Zhouxing's mother, did not have this worry.

In the eyes of Emperor Mu, a woman is going to marry outside after all, and she follows her father at home and her husband outside, which is not the same as her uncle.

And Si Jianing has not been very close to his uncle's family since he was a child, and he has little contact, and he is closer to his father.

Soon, Emperor Mu's order was issued, and the general of the expedition to the north was appointed, and the eldest princess Changning was sent to supervise the army.

Ordered the woman to overseer the army, and as soon as this call came out, the opponents were gone.

As the eldest princess, Si Jianing cares about the people's livelihood and people's livelihood, has many good deeds, and has a lot of literary brilliance, many poems have been circulated, and even the kung fu on horseback is also obvious to all in several royal hunts.

Sending a royal heir to the left and right is not to go to the front line to kill the enemy, so the matter is decided.

In the prince's mansion, Si Zhouxing was wearing an elegant robe, making tea, and sitting opposite him.

Subordinates came to tell someone to visit him many times, but Si Zhouxing only said that he was sick and didn't even see his uncle's house, so he was leisurely.

"You can sit still, and now many people want to join you and let you go to overseer the army, right?" Yamamoto joked.

Emperor Mu's heirs are thin, and the only adult prince is Si Zhouxing, who is still the eldest son of the queen, and he is simply the best candidate for the crown prince.

Si Zhouxing poured tea for Shan Tao, his eyebrows and eyes crooked, "I don't have any intention of that, why give them assumptions, Sister Huang, she has been waiting for this opportunity for a long time." ”

After chatting with Si Jianing last time, Si Zhouxing already knew that Si Jianing was destined to embark on a rugged road, and although the road ahead was difficult and dangerous, she had made up her mind.

Seeing that he was open, Shan Tao also knew that he really had no intention of taking the throne, so he sighed slightly, "The situation of the north and the south is different, I asked my father, the ancestors of the Southern Dynasty have produced several empresses, and there are ancestors in front, and the princess finally has hope." But the Northern Dynasties have always been conservative, and now that they are integrated, there will be a lot of resistance. The princess needs a chance to make a name for herself. ”

Si Zhouxing and her looked at each other and smiled, they both knew that this battle was the best opportunity.

"I'm going to be a doctor with the army."

Shan Tao's words are not asking but sure, under the teaching of Du Yingqiu, her medical skills are very famous along with external injuries, and with the immortal arts, she is simply the best choice for military doctors.

Si Jianing knew her ability, and came to beg her to accompany her early, a skilled military doctor who could save the lives of many soldiers on the battlefield.

"Okay, replacing wine with tea will be counted as seeing you off." Si Zhouxing didn't have any disapproval, and unexpectedly raised the teacup and drank it all.

This is not only the benevolence of Shan Tao's doctor, but also her mother's long-cherished wish to fight for the country, even if it is in a different way.

Before leaving, Si Zhouxing also brought a piece of news that King Yong was no longer useful and was secretly executed, and the news of his death would not be announced for the time being.

When Yamamoto rode on the horse, there were no enemies in Kyoto behind him, only relatives and friends, and the people of his homeland who wanted to protect him.

Many people came to see her off, and the words of advice could not be finished, and the ten-mile long pavilion had passed, and the waving arms could still be faintly seen.

"Beiyi had a bad disaster before, and life on the grassland was not good, so he saved his mind to rob us of the things we admired." Si Jianing rode a red horse and slowly talked to Shan Tao about the situation at the border, "At this time, they are just fierce, like hungry wolves. Mountain girl, the wounded sergeant in the rear, I'll hand it over to you. ”

Shan Tao nodded seriously and said in a low voice: "I will not disgrace my life." ”

This trip was an ambush for Beiyi, and the army turned into several groups of people acting from different routes, disguised as traveling merchants.

By the time they arrived at the border, trade was bustling with commerce, and the people were living and working in peace and contentment, without the slightest feeling of pre-war life.
