Chapter 80

Xiao Li summoned a white horse and walked side by side with Huangfu Haotian.Along the way, Huangfu Haotian stretched out his hand from time to time, holding her little hand tightly, and the phoenix eyes filled with moonlight were full of tenderness that could not be concealed.

Xiao Li was curious, wondering why he led an army to meet her at this time, so she asked.In the end, she found out that it was her old father, General Xiao Chaogui, who was always reluctant to let him, the only daughter, suffer on the front line.So he wrote to ask to see the emperor, and hoped that the emperor would agree to let him lead troops to support him.

After careful analysis by the emperor and the general, they were finally worried that Xiao Li was just a boudoir girl after all, and going to the battlefield this time was a matter of killing her head with a real sword.If everything can be as she said, and it can be under her control.But Prince Kadar, the commander of the Mirror Army, is not an ordinary person after all, and I'm afraid that when the time comes, everything will not be as simple as Xiao Li imagined.

It would be fine if this battle was won, but if Xiao Li really lost to Nakadar, it would be fine if she died, but the huge disaster that would be brought to Ling country would be immeasurable .

After the agreement, the emperor finally decided to agree to the general's request and send additional troops to reinforce Xiao Li.

After hearing this news, Prince Wu Huangfu Haobo reacted quickly, and entered the palace that night to ask to see the emperor.

"Father" Prince Wu said to the emperor: "I heard that my father is worried about the border war, and today I decided to send the general to go to the army again to reinforce the general who protects the country?"

The emperor nodded and said: "The emperor is right, I really have this plan."

After hearing this, Prince Wu hurriedly came to the emperor's side, knelt down and said to him: "But father, there is a sentence that I should not say. But if I don't say it, my heart will be really uncomfortable. .”

The emperor couldn't help but smiled at him: "If the emperor has any special opinions in his heart, it's okay to say it." Then the emperor turned his head, looked around him again, and then said with a smile: "Actually, this matter I have already planned the matter, and I want to ask some of you emperors to come over and discuss it together."

But it turned out that Prince Wu was not the only person who came at this time, but also several other princes such as Huangfu Haotian.

Prince Wu got up from the top, smiled at his brothers, and then said again: "I thank you, Father, for your trust, but now I feel that General Xiao Chaogui is not capable of taking on this role."

"Oh?" Seeing Huangfu Haobo being so straight to the point, the emperor couldn't help but ask, "What do you mean by your son's words?"

But Huangfu Haobo said: "Father, you must be very clear in your heart that the reason why the general moved back to the capital from the border is because he is already old and sick."

The emperor nodded after hearing this: "That's indeed the case. The general has suffered a lot in order to keep the border of our Daling Army safe in the past few decades."

Huangfu Haobo nodded after hearing what the emperor said: "Father, what the emperor said is very true. The general has been guarding the border all these years, and new injuries have become old ones. When he was young, he might be able to carry it, but now he I'm getting old. That's why I'm worried..."

When Huangfu Haobo said this, he suddenly raised his head to look at the emperor's expression, and seeing that he frowned, he went on to say: "Although these years, the general guarding the border has indeed brought many years of blessings to the people of Ling Kingdom. Peaceful life. However, since the battle between Ling Jun and Jing Jun ten years ago, the two armies have recuperated and recuperated on their own. Except for some minor incidents that occasionally occur in the world, they are nothing more than trivial matters. So these In the past few years, I am afraid that the general will no longer have the might and majesty of the past."

"The emperor means..."

Seeing the emperor's hesitant expression, Huangfu Haobo finally said: "I'm afraid, my son, this trip to the north, the general may not be able to take on the heavy responsibility for the emperor anymore!"

"En." For a moment, the emperor couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

After a long time, I saw him speak again with worry on his face: "Actually, it's not that I haven't thought about what the emperor said before. But right now, my heart is suffering from the fact that I really can't find a substitute for the general in the court." That’s why I decided to appoint the Great General to go out again. Sigh, speaking of it, there is no other way.”

Huangfu Haobo heard this, but suddenly said: "Father's words are wrong, although I have been relying on the great generals at the border for many years to defend my father's family and country, but how can I be like my father in the court?" As you said, there is no one else?"

"Oh?" When the emperor heard this, a gleam of light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he said, "According to what the emperor said, could it be that you already have a new candidate in your heart?"

I saw Huangfu Haobo suddenly smiled at the emperor, and then said unhurriedly: "If the father trusts the minister, the minister is willing to go to the battle in place of the general."

"What?" The emperor couldn't help but change his face when he heard it: "You mean...you want to go to the border instead of the general? This... how can this be possible!"

Huangfu Haobo didn't expect for a moment that the emperor would not agree to his request, so he asked again: "Father, you must know that the crown prince's condition is getting worse now, and the third brother has been away from court for many years. And the fifth and sixth younger brothers are inevitably too young, and still lack experience and experience. Therefore, this matter of going north to the expedition, I am afraid that only the son-in-law can undertake it."

The emperor glanced at him, but still did not let go.

Huangfu Haobo went on to say: "As the son of my father, and also the Prince Wu of the Daling Kingdom that my father entrusted to me, I must do my best for the country and the people. Otherwise, my son Wouldn't the title of Prince Wu be ridiculed by the world for nothing?"

Seeing what he said, the emperor's expression finally became a little looser, and when he was about to say yes, he saw a figure flashing in the doorway: "You must not! Your majesty, what the emperor Haobo said, you must never say that." Do not promise him."

"Empress!" No one present expected that the empress would suddenly come here to disrupt the situation at this time.

At this time, the empress had already arrived in the hall accompanied by a group of palace maids.After saying a thousand blessings to the emperor, the empress came directly to the emperor and sat down.

"Queen, why did you come here at this time?" the emperor asked.

The queen replied: "Your Majesty, the concubine wanted to come and visit the emperor, but she didn't expect that as soon as she walked to the gate of this hall, she heard the words of Emperor Haobo. The concubine is originally a woman, and she is in this palace. My lord, it is reasonable to say that the harem should not interfere in politics without authorization, but the emperor and the concubines have something in their hearts that they want the emperor to analyze for the concubines to see if they should come out to stop the emperor's decision."

When the emperor heard it, he only nodded and said: "Since this is the case, you might as well come and listen to it, empress."

Only the empress said: "As the saying goes, a father of martial arts has no sons, not to mention that you are the emperor of the real dragon. So as your son, Huang'er Haobo wants to send troops to the north to build a career for the Daling Kingdom. There is nothing wrong with that.”

The emperor nodded and said: "The queen's words are right."

But the queen continued to say: "But your majesty, you can't ignore another question just because of this."

"What's the problem, the queen might as well just say it."

The queen nodded and said: "Just like what Huang'er Haobo said just now: "Now the crown prince's condition is getting worse, the third prince is nowhere to be seen, and the qualifications of the other princes are still relatively young.Therefore, if even Prince Wu leaves the capital, there will be no one in the court to share his worries for the emperor. "

The queen's words were originally what the emperor was worried about before, and hearing what the queen said this time, it was naturally even more difficult to make up his mind.

At this moment, a faint coughing sound was suddenly heard from the banquet.

It turned out that the prince's condition had improved temporarily in the past few days, so the emperor sent an order to bring him back to the palace.

At this moment, the prince suddenly said: "Father, regarding this matter, I have a suggestion in my heart, I wonder if my father wants to hear it."

The emperor turned his head, glanced at the prince, and quickly said: "Prince, what suggestion do you have, you might as well tell me."

I only heard the crown prince weakly coughing twice: "Cough...Father, regarding this matter, I believe that what the second emperor brother and the queen mother said are all reasonable. But this matter requires a definite decision. Now, since it is impossible to send a general there, and this capital is inseparable from the Second Emperor, even though the poor son has the heart, he is already powerless. Therefore, the son thought that it would be better to leave this matter to the four The emperor's brother is ready to do it."

"This..." The emperor couldn't help but murmured after hearing this: "But my son, the emperor of Haotian has been accompanying you to seek medical treatment these days. If you let him go to the north now, then you will..." The emperor thought about it carefully, but still shook his head uneasy: "No, no, I still have no way to agree to this matter."

"Father, please listen to my son's explanation." Only the prince said again: "cough... Father, my son knows that my father is worried about my son's body. But now my son's body is already like this, I think there are many people around me. It's not a big deal to be alone, or to lose one person. As for the fourth brother, it would be a pity if he wasted his literary and military skills just to take care of me, a patient."

"Prince..." The emperor felt sad when he heard his words.

But the prince shook his head at the emperor, and continued: "Ahem... Besides, this time, the fourth brother is going north for all the people of my Daling Kingdom. As the prince, if I can only watch helplessly Seeing that the people of my Ling country are in dire straits, how can they bear it in their hearts? So, instead of tying the fourth younger brother by my son's side and being a useless person who can do nothing, it's better for my son to stand for him Ask the emperor for a chance to make contributions to the world. Cough cough..."

"The emperor..." Hearing what he said, the emperor's eyes suddenly filled with tears: "Father always knew in his heart that you are a good prince with the world in mind. But the emperor..."

The prince smiled slightly at the emperor: "Father, you don't have to be sad, all of this is just fate. It's my son's fate that is not good, and I don't have the blessing to enjoy the infinite prosperity of the Daling Kingdom. , you should seek a day’s well-being for the people of our Daling Kingdom, and you should never delay Daling Kingdom’s retreat for your own self-interest!"

Speaking of this, the prince suddenly reached out and took Huangfu Haotian's hand, looked at him and said: "Fourth younger brother, if elder brother begs you here today, even if you accumulate some virtue for elder brother, I hope You must agree to this matter, okay?"

"Brother Huang!" For a moment, Huangfu Haotian couldn't help but leave his seat, and knelt down between the emperor and the prince: "Please give the order of the emperor to let the minister replace the general and lead the army to go north." !"
