With a delicate smile, the rough guy bows down for the beauty

Marching and fighting, apart from food and grass, the most important thing is naturally soldiers and horses.

Duke Rong brought the question to this, and Emperor Jianning became a little more serious.

After sweeping his gaze over everyone present, he spoke in a deep voice.

"The war in the western region is no small matter. I decided to take Zhao Zhongqi, who has guarded the western region for many years, as the commander. He is familiar with the affairs of the western region, has made many military exploits, and has dealt with Yanhu all year round. He is the most suitable candidate. As for the other generals, except Bianjing , and dispatched troops from other states and counties, Shen He!"

"Chen is here!"

After being mentioned, Shen He immediately stepped out and responded loudly.

Emperor Jianning frowned, "I know your abilities, and you have been with me for a long time. You are willing to go on this expedition."

"I'm willing to go, do my duty faithfully, and share the worries of the emperor!" Shen He clasped his fists.

"Okay!" Emperor Jianning's eyes were sharp, "Father and son in the battle, I know that your boy is also a good player, and he has performed meritorious deeds at these times, so I will be a vanguard general with you and go out with you!"

Upon hearing this, Shen He frowned, and subconsciously wanted to refuse, but before he opened his mouth, Emperor Jianning had already turned his head to look at Rong Guogong.

He couldn't speak for a while, so he had to stand back to his original position.

It's a good thing to be appreciated by the emperor, but in this matter, Shen He just didn't want Shen Qianwei to get involved.

Even as a subject, as a general, he knows that it is his responsibility to protect his family and country, but as a father, he would rather his son not have these responsibilities.

Su Yi looked at Shen He's expression from the corner of his eye, and frowned slightly.

Finally, Emperor Jianning slowed down his voice after he finished counting the generals.

"Right now, we already have a team, and the head coach has been decided, but I'm still not sure about the candidate for the deputy commander. Do you have anyone to choose?"

When he said this, Emperor Jianning's eyes seemed to sweep over King Jin's body.

King Jin is not stupid, naturally he quickly sensed Emperor Jianning's thoughts.

But the deputy commander is actually just a deputy, especially if the prince is the deputy commander, he must not actually lead the troops. This is Emperor Jianning giving him the opportunity to go out and make meritorious service.

The seventh prince intervened in the logistics of food and grass, and he was given the opportunity to make contributions on the front line. King Jin realized that this was a balancing act by his father.

Of course, when it comes to talking about it, there are naturally many disadvantages in going to the expedition, and it is unknown whether he will make meritorious service, but if he also nests in Bianjing like the Seventh Prince, it will definitely disappoint Emperor Jianning.

After all, he gained a foothold in the royal family all these years by virtue of his military exploits when he assisted Emperor Jianning in winning the throne.

Thinking of all these things, King Jin stepped forward and spoke loudly.

"If the emperor doesn't dislike my son's stupidity, I will recommend myself!"

"Okay, if you have the heart, I will allow you!"

After getting the desired answer, Emperor Jianning's eyes also burst into a sharp light.

Chen Wang looked at the dragon robe behind the book case silently, and knew in his heart that from the current point of view, Emperor Jianning was still more inclined to Jin Wang.

But it doesn't matter, it's up to people to make things happen, and he can always plan slowly.

Not everyone cares about the battle between these princes, but there are Shen He and Su Yi.

He couldn't speak in front of Emperor Jianning, and after leaving the palace, Shen He's face remained gloomy.

Just as he was about to ride away, he was stopped by a voice from behind.

"General Shen!"

Turning around, it was Su Yi.

"What's the matter with Su Yushi?" Shen He stopped.

Su Yi nodded and made a gesture of invitation, "Take a step to speak."

The two immediately walked towards the less crowded place together.

After standing still, Su Yi spoke again.

"In the imperial study today, I saw that the general seemed to have something to say to the emperor, probably because of Qian Wei's business."

"After all, you are careful, you saw it." Shen He sighed.

Su Yi shook his head and chuckled.

"Most of the people in the room have their own hearts. The emperor looks at things and people with great insight. I can see that the emperor may not be able to, but the emperor did not give the general a chance to speak today. The general should be clearer."

Shen He has always been careless, but he really didn't know these ways, but he is not stupid. Listening to Su Yi's analysis now, there is nothing he doesn't understand.

Immediately his eyes widened.

"You mean, the emperor must want Qian Wei to also go to the western region, so he avoided me?"

"Although there are many generals in the court at present, they are all veterans. For example, you, such as Rong Guogong, are experienced and capable, but after all, the younger generation has to practice."

Su Yi sighed and continued.

"Especially among the younger generation who are engaged in martial arts, Qian Wei is indeed top-notch, and the emperor also values ​​it."

After listening to this analysis, Shen He moved his lips, but he didn't say anything after all.

You don't need to listen to others, as long as you know that the emperor wants Shen Qianwei to go, then you can't hide.

Besides, Shen Qianwei's temperament, as a father, can he not know?

Back then when he went to Yuzhou to suppress bandits, this kid followed him by himself. Now that he goes back to the Western Region, he may repeat his old tricks.

If that's the case, he can't avoid it, he might as well bring someone by his side to watch.

Observing the change of expression on Shen He's face, Su Yi knew that he should have the answer in his heart.

Then he reached out and patted Shen He's shoulder, and left after a little comfort.

He purposely said these words because he was worried that Shen He was eager to protect his son, and he didn't see what the emperor meant, so he ran to the emperor and said something to refuse.

If this is said, let alone offending Emperor Jianning for Shen He himself, I am afraid that Shen Qianwei's future will be ruined in the future.

Now that the marriage has been decided, Shen Qianwei is considered to be the half-son-in-law of the Su family, so he will not sit idly by.

A group of courtiers left with their own thoughts. In the palace, Emperor Jianning was also exhausted.

"Your Majesty, the Empress personally delivered the dim sum soup, and the Emperor must pass it on." Wang Lianyi, the manager, said cautiously.

Emperor Jianning pinched his temples and threw the rosewood bracelet in his hand onto the table.

"Pass it in."

"Yes."

The latter responded and retreated slowly.

After a while, Empress Xu came in with a food box.

"The concubine greets the emperor. I heard that the emperor didn't use much lunch today. This afternoon, he is meeting with the ministers to discuss state affairs. He must be hungry. The concubine specially prepared something. You have to take care of your body."

"The queen is bothering you, sit down." Emperor Jianning waved his hand.

Empress Xu put down the food box, took out the contents and arranged them, then handed over the bowls and chopsticks, and then sat down beside her.

While Emperor Jianning was eating, he spoke softly again.

"This battle is about to start, and it happened to coincide with the wedding of the two children. Everything has been settled, and we just wait for the day. But right now, the concubines can't make up their minds for a while, so I want to ask the emperor what he thinks. "

Emperor Jianning took a sip of the soup and frowned slightly.

After a moment of silence, he whispered.

"I've thought about this matter in my mind. The seventh child is fine, but now it's decided that the third child will go out with the army. The shortest is five days, and the longest is half a month. He must leave. His marriage has been delayed for many years. It really can’t be delayed any longer.”

Listening to Emperor Jianning's tone, Empress Xu's eyes flickered, and then said.

"Prince Jin's marriage really needs to be done more quickly. The concubine thought, why not do it in advance, and the two brothers are together, and there is no favoritism between the two. The two happy events can be regarded as a rush before the battle."
