Chapter 20
"...I want you to be the main general..."

Jiang Siyan looked at Jiang Xubai below, and said slowly, "Are you willing?"

Hearing Jiang Siyan's words, Jiang Xubai's heart moved slightly.

coming……

Kneeling down on one knee, Jiang Xubai said in a deep voice, "I am willing to go!"

"Um……"

Looking at Jiang Xubai's appearance, Jiang Siyan nodded slowly, but he was still a little worried, and said: "Wei Zhang is well versed in military affairs, this time he will be your deputy general, and you can ask him for advice."

Wei Zhang is the general with the leopard head and eyes around him.

"Thank you, Father!"

"Go down."

Watching Jiang Xubai slowly exit the hall, Jiang Siyan let out a long sigh.

May...God bless Shu...

……

Walking out of the hall, Zhang Yi was waiting outside, and Wei Zhang was also waiting outside.

"Mr. Zhang Yi, General Wei Zhang."

Jiang Xubai greeted the two of them in turn, and then said: "Father decided to use me as the main general and General Wei Zhang as the deputy general to fight against the rebels together."

For this result, Zhang Yi was not surprised, it was within his expectation.

There are very few generals in Shu, and after Jiang Xubai said those words, Zhang Yi knew that the king of Shu would definitely cultivate Jiang Xubai.

Wei Zhang was a little surprised, he thought Jiang Xubai would become the lieutenant general.

However, he completely obeyed the arrangement of the King of Shu, so he said: "The last general will do his best to assist the young master!"

After finishing speaking, Wei Zhang clasped his fists at Jiang Xubai and Zhang Yi and said, "The last general will step down."

After speaking, he backed away slowly, then turned and left.

"General Wei Zhang is steady."

No matter from the discussion just now or the current actions, we can see that Wei Zhang is a man.

"Ah."

Listening to Zhang Yi's words, Jiang Xubai nodded.

"This time, Mr. Hardworking."

"It's just for the country, why talk about hard work?"

Zhang Yi smiled and waved her hands, and said, "Young Master, you must win this battle before you can..."

Zhang Yi didn't say the latter words, but the meaning was very clear. Jiang Xubai understood Zhang Yi's latter words. If he lost, he would be farther away from the position of son.

"Zhang Yi is leaving first."

It will take some time to go to Yue. Zhang Yi has to start first to avoid any changes in the future. As for reminiscing about the past, let's talk about it when we come back.

Seeing Wei Zhang and Zhang Yi leave one after another, Jiang Xubai took a deep breath in his heart, this is an opportunity for him, he must seize it!
Returning to Jinliu Pond, he saw his mother still waiting there, so he immediately came to her mother.

When Empress Li saw Jiang Xubai coming back, she smiled again, and pulled Jiang Xubai to sit beside her.

Jiang Xubai told Queen Li what had just happened.

"When you meet on a narrow road, the brave win..."

"Is this really what you said?"

Empress Li was very pleasantly surprised by the short seven words. Seeing that naughty child back then, he could say such words.

After getting an affirmative answer, Empress Li was even more happy. She herself liked military strategies and martial arts, so she naturally liked Jiang Xubai's words very much.

He praised Jiang Xubai again and again, then took out a red ribbon and handed it to him.

"This is……"

Looking at the ribbon, Jiang Xubai was a little puzzled.

Empress Li picked up the ribbon, tied it on Jiang Xubai's forehead, and said: "My mother used to wear it in battle, and now I give it to you."

Tie the ribbon, and at the same time, tie the expectation of Queen Li.

Touching the ribbon on his head, Jiang Xubai said with a smile, "Thank you, Queen Mother."

"Remember, the battle is changing rapidly, and you must not be negligent..."

In the Golden Willow Pond, Empress Li told Jiang Xubai a lot, and Jiang Xubai listened quietly from the side, remembering what the empress mother said in his heart.

It didn't stop until it was getting late.

Under the reluctant eyes of his mother, Jiang Xubai resigned.

Bai'er has grown up...

This is what Empress Li thought, thinking, Empress Li slowly got up and walked towards Changning Palace, where there was still someone waiting for her.

Accompanied by the maids of the left and right, Empress Li slowly came to the Changning Palace, and slowly pushed open the gate of the Changning Palace.

In the meantime, Jiang Siyan was still holding the bamboo slips in his hand, frowning, as if he was very distressed.

Sensing the movement, Jiang Siyan looked up and saw Empress Li walking towards him slowly, finally showing a smile.

"You came."

After looking at Li, Jiang Siyan waved his hand and signaled the other waiters to go out.

After the last attendant withdrew and closed the door, Jiang Siyan breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Queen Li sitting on the bed, Jiang Siyan smiled, then came to the bed, and slowly lay down on Queen Li's lap.

Smelling the familiar fragrance of flowers, Jiang Siyan's brows eased a lot.

Li Hou stretched out his hand and rubbed Jiang Siyan's head. The latter closed his eyes and began to chatter.

"There are floods again this year. Gong Jiyu asked for relief. We have been on the throne for a few years, and it has been flooded several times! Is it true that the heavens will punish me as those rebels said?"

"Zhang Yi said that Tang Guo has some thoughts about Liang Guo, but I am worried that Xia Guo has not moved lightly, so Tang Guo has the idea of ​​uniting us, I still hesitate..."

"Miao Jiang's rebellion this time, Zhang Yi also helped a lot. Regardless of whether the Yue State cooperates this time, as long as the news spreads, the Chu State will not dare to move lightly. Now it is almost time to completely put down this group of rebels in Miao Jiang..."

Empress Li listened quietly to Jiang Siyan's nagging, never making a sound.

What year is this?

From Jiang Siyan's ascension to the throne, he slowly got into the habit of doing this.

Every time I have to lie on my lap, talking about those courtiers, cursing the four generations of emperors in front...

It didn't matter, there were only the two of them in the palace, no matter what Jiang Siyan said, Empress Li would listen quietly and lay her head on him.

She knew that her husband was under a lot of pressure.

What Jiang Siyan took over was a mess, the treasury was short of money, the fields were barren, there were bandits rebelling inside, and powerful enemies were watching outside...

A crumbling country is slowly prospering in his hands, which is the result of hard work day and night.

Outsiders may see him as a sage and enlightened lord, but no one knows how much pressure he has endured.

Only after facing Li, can he confide his sincerity...

"I heard about Bai'er..."

Empress Li pressed Jiang Siyan's head, and then spoke softly.

"Huh? I think you know..."

Jiang Siyan smiled, and then said: "I can't, there is no general in Sichuan, we can only be trained from the younger generation, the youngest is just right, but I just don't know if he can do it..."

"pain--"

Suddenly, Empress Li's strength suddenly increased, and Jiang Siyan couldn't help crying out in pain.

Looking up, he saw Empress Li with a half-smile, the corners of her mouth moved, and then she sighed.

Knowing that it was Li Hou, he was dissatisfied with Jiang Siyan's belittling Jiang Xubai.

"I'm also worried about the third brother. I'm going to hand over the army to him this time. I still want the boss to have someone he can rely on in the army..."

Since Jiang Xuzhen lost that battle a few years ago, he has been unable to hold his head up in the army ever since.

If there is no more cronies, Jiang Siyan is very worried that after a hundred years, Jiang Xuzhen will not be able to restrain the army.

Jiang Xubai happened to be trusted by Jiang Xuzhen this time...

 Ribbons, not headscarves! !
