"Please feel at ease in the in-laws, I will come to the palace to meet the saint!"

In front of other nobles, Xu Shuo naturally could not refuse the request of Duke Lai, the in-laws.

He quickly turned around and went to see Emperor Yongping.

"If my uncle wants to plead for Duke Lai, then don't say it!"

Seeing Xu Shuo appear, Emperor Yongping spoke very directly.

This time, no one pleads for Duke Lai, Emperor Yongping cannot be dismissed.

The Northern Barbarians are about to attack. At this time, the important officials in the court should do the public to insult foreign countries. However, Lai State publicly said that it was to hold accountable and settle accounts.

Accountability is the right thing to do.

But the premise is that the problem of the Northern Barbarians must be solved first.

There are priorities and priorities in matters. Just like Duke Lai, he cannot tell the difference between the primary and secondary points. Why should he enjoy a high position again?

Duke Lai was a nobleman in the founding country.

But this is not a reliance that Duke Lai can do whatever he wants.

Of course, the end of Duke Lai was purely because Emperor Yongping wanted to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys, so that these nobles in the army understood that everything they had now originated from the emperor.

In the Tang Dynasty, the first thing to guarantee is the interests of the emperor.

If the Northern Barbarians go south and invade the territory of the Tang Dynasty and hurt the people of the Tang Dynasty, they are provoking the majesty of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore, the most important thing to do now is to face the enemy.

"I didn't come for Duke Lai!"

Xu Shuo spoke respectfully, "I am here to ask the emperor for something!"

"What's the matter? As long as you are not pleading for Duke Lai, my uncle will just say anything else!"

"My son, Xiaoyi Lang Xu Huaiyi, also practiced martial arts since childhood. I want to summon ministers to go to the battlefield together and guard the border for the country!"

"Uncle is righteous, I am sure!"

When Emperor Yongping heard Xu Shuo's words, he immediately became happy, "I will send someone to Xiangyi Prefecture immediately and transfer Xiaoyilang to Huangfengkou, Longxi Prefecture. Well, I will grant him a side general of the army and lead five thousand army from Xiangyi Prefecture to Huangfengkou!"

"I thank you Master!"

Xu Shuo immediately gave a great gift to Emperor Yongping and then retreated.

Duke Lai, who was waiting for Xu Shuo to rescue, was destined to be called "Heavenly Responsible" and "Di Not Working in the prison of the clan's mansion.

...

Xu Shuo, who had left the palace, returned to the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion and did not stay for long. He immediately took his family generals and guards and hurried out of the capital with his attitude of being eager to make mistakes and rushed to the direction of Longxi Mansion in the northwest.

"Waste is waste!"

After knowing what Xu Shuo did, the eldest princess sneered.

Du Wan'er was obediently by the eldest princess and did not comment.

In this Duke Dingguo Mansion, she was named the princess of the previous dynasty, but in fact she was a dodder who could only rely on the eldest princess to live. At this point, Du Wan'er knew it clearly in her heart.

"Sister Wan'er, do you know why I regard our prince as a dog, but he dares not speak out?"

"Sister, tell me, how could the little sister know about such a thing?"

Du Wan'er is really curious.

Xu Shuo is still a Duke after all, and he is already the top of a minister.

As far as she knows, Xu Shuo was awarded the title of Dingbei Hou for his military merits. Such a person, who was born on the battlefield, must have a very good spirit.

But he was so humiliated by the eldest princess, so he actually endured it.

This is undoubtedly something that subverts Du Waner's perception.

It should be noted that every man is angry, but Xu Shuo seems to have no temper.

No, he has a temper, but when facing the eldest princess, as the eldest princess said, Xu Shuo is a dog in front of her.

"Because, although our prince joins the army and has experienced many battles of all sizes, he has actually not made any outstanding achievements."

"If the things he did were not planned by our palace, it would be impossible for him to be a marquis to be appointed as a marquis."

"ah……?!"

Du Wan'er was really shocked when she heard these words.

A long time ago, she knew that the eldest princess of the Tang Dynasty had a remarkable position in the court, but what she didn't expect was that the eldest princess could even control the military merits and titles.

"Sister, since Xu Shuo has no real ability, then he will go to the northwest to lead the overall situation. If he loses the battle, wouldn't he be involved?"

"What does this have to do with me?"

The eldest princess smiled, "The emperor himself knows what kind of person his uncle is. If something goes wrong, what will have to do with me?"

"I'm afraid that our Lord has his own little thoughts!"

Even though he knew what kind of person Xu Shuo was, Emperor Yongping still used Xu Shuo, which made the eldest princess think deeply.

...

Lingshui Village, Lao Xu's family.

King Yan and Mr. Xu sat face to face, neither of them looked very good.

However, the two of them looked bad, but because of different things.

The King of Yan was invaded south because of the Northern Barbarians, while the Old Master Xu was ordered by Emperor Yongping to recruit him as a side general of the army, and led the Xiangyi Prefecture to go out of the Huangfengkou.

Even though Mr. Xu had never been to the North, he knew very well about Huang Fengkou.

Because Huangfengkou is the place where King Yan rose.

It was at Huangfengkou that the King of Yan led the whirlwind cavalry to conquer the world, and the Northern Barbarians did not dare to invade the south.

This time, the Northern Barbarians marched south, and Huangfengkou was bound to have a fierce battle.

With the 5,000 unwarranted military soldiers in Xiangyi Prefecture and the fierce Northern Barbarian cavalry, is Emperor Yongping's head flooding?

If it weren't for the relationship between King Yan and Emperor Yongping, Mr. Xu would definitely have cursed him.

"Cousin, I will find a way to let the whirlwind ride head to Huangfengkou to help you!"

King Yan saw Mr. Xu's expression and knew that Mr. Xu was full of anger at this moment.

"I really don't know why the emperor made such a decision in this matter!"

"I only know that it was Duke Ding's advice and recruiting his cousin to join the army!"

"The imperial edict has been issued, why don't I go with you?"

King Yan was actually scolding Emperor Yongping in his heart. If it weren't for the same ancestor, King Yan really wanted to greet Emperor Yongping's ancestors for the eighth generation.

"Li Zhen, is it not worthless in the hearts of your royal family?"

"Huangfengkou, the five thousand troops in Xiangyi Prefecture, I only ask you, how many people can come back alive in this battle?"

"They are also raised by their mothers and fathers, and they are also sons, fathers and husbands."

"But now, just because of the emperor's bullshit imperial edict, they have to throw their lives under the butcher knife of the Northern Barbarians!"

"Is this the Lord who protects all the people?"

Because the empress dowager watched his mother's death, Mr. Xu became resentful towards the royal family. Later, he guessed that her mother's affairs were related to the eldest princess and the Xu family, and Mr. Xu's resentment became even deeper.

Now that this happened again, Mr. Xu's resentment was almost at its limit.

"Li Zhen, please listen to me. If this battle occurs, the five thousand troops in Xiangyi Prefecture will fight without help. If I don't die, I will kill the Qiantian Palace and kill this shitty emperor!"

If you don’t serve the people, what if you kill me?

"Xu Huaiyi!"

After hearing Mr. Xu's words, King Yan suddenly stood up.
