Chapter 421

Seeing that his two sons agree with Xia Jin's proposal, Xiao Chenglang finally makes up his mind:

"Well, I will send envoys to nanyong to discuss the alliance."

At this point, Xiao Chenglang lowered his head slightly, thought for a moment, and then looked up at Xiao Yichen

"In your opinion, who should take up the post of envoy?"

Smell speech, Xiao Yiqi thought of a figure, but he is not in a hurry to speak, but will look to the side of the prince.

Today, the Eastern Qing Dynasty hall is basically governed by the prince, who has the most say in such issues!

Not overstepping power, not fighting, not grabbing, is Xiao Yiqi's consistent style of doing things these years.

The prince is wise and understands what Xiao Yiqi thinks. He bows to Xiao Chenglang and says:

"HuiFu emperor, the children's minister thinks that Han Chengdong, the Minister of the Ministry of household affairs, should be competent for this job."

Han Chengdong is a master of both culture and martial arts. He has excellent morality and ability. He is an outstanding young generation in the Eastern Qing Dynasty.

On the other side, Xiao Yi's eyebrows were raised. What he and the prince thought happened to coincide

"My father and my son also think that Han Shi Lang is the best choice."

Xiao Chenglang wanted to choose one of the old ministers in the court, but when he saw that both the prince and the king of Qi recommended Han Chengdong, one of the younger generation, he thought it was time to give more opportunities to the young people, so he changed his mind temporarily.

He looked at his two excellent sons and spoke slowly

"Since you both strongly recommend Han Shilang, tomorrow morning, the prince will put this matter on the agenda and arrange his mission to nanyong as soon as possible... Qi'er, you must help your eldest brother to manage the affairs of the court."

Since his return from Yilian mountain, his health has become worse and worse. In the early days, the prince was in charge of the discussion of politics.

"The son minister obeys the decree, will not disappoint the father emperor."

Xiao Yiqi and his brother bow their hands to answer the question. Xiao Chenglang waves his hand to show them that they are free. He immediately takes a memorial placed on one side of the table and asks Chen Yong to give it to Xiao Yiqi.

Xiao Yiqi reaches for it and opens it. At the same time, Xiao Chenglang's voice rings slowly

"Before your fourth younger brother left the capital, he submitted a compromise to be dispatched by a general. I hope I can make another will to call Dongfang Kuo, a general who has been idle in the countryside for many years and repeatedly refused to be recruited by the imperial court, to return to his post in the Imperial court, and still serve as the garrison general of northern Hebei."

While Xiao Chenglang's voice fell, Xiao Yiqi had read the contents of the memorial.

He folded the music and looked at the king after the Dragon case

"Now that the country is in crisis, the eastern generals will no longer be confined to the past and will not be called. What the fourth brother said is really necessary. I wonder if my father has any worries? "

Dongfangkuo had excellent military ability. Before he returned to the wild, he was just the general of the northern Hebei city.

The city of northern Hebei is located behind Hongdu. The mother river of Dongqing Dynasty, which originated in Lingshan, passes through the city. The crops on both sides of the river are bumper every year.

Because of this advantage, the northern city of Hebei and Lizhou were two natural granaries in the Eastern Qing Dynasty. Although their grain production was slightly inferior to that of Lizhou, it should not be ignored.

In addition, there are several big cities like Hongdu around the city of northern Hebei, and the distance between them is less than 100 li. It is an important commercial town and an information distribution center.

However, there is no absolute superiority in the world.

There is a fatal flaw in the northern city of Hebei, which is easy to attack but hard to defend!

Usually, there is a lion named Hongdu in the south of the northern Hebei city, which can not be crossed by the army of Xichuan and will not pose a threat to it.

But now it is almost impossible for Xichuan and Dongqing to go to war. There are enemy spies in Hongdu City, so it is difficult to find them out completely. At this time, the situation faced by Hongdu is difficult to attack and defend.

If Hongdu city is lost, it will be in danger.

At that time, if there is this veteran with rich military experience and a hundred victories in northern Hebei, there may be more opportunities for preservation.

"I don't know that Dongfang Kuo is venting his discontent these years. Once his family and country change, he will come out again. But... "

On Xiao Chenglang's face, which is slightly full of vicissitudes of life, his thick eyebrows are tightly wrinkled together, and there is a look of distress.

Xiao Yiqi frowned slightly. He couldn't figure out what his father was worried about?

At this time, the prince's voice rang out.

"This morning, the urgent Memorial written by Dongfang Kuo was introduced into the palace. Among the memorials, he took the initiative to assume the post of city guard general in northern Hebei. But apart from the memorial, he also wrote a private letter in which he made two demands to re-examine the case of the general's rebellion in Zhennan nine years ago, and to grant the king of marriage and his daughter Dongfang youruo! "

"What?"

Even though Xiao Yi is used to big scenes and has experienced many crises of life and death, he is calm and experienced, and can't help being shocked at the moment.

After all, with the growth of his age, he occasionally learned some clues about the events of that year. He also felt that there was something strange about the so-called rebellion of Zhennan general.

If it were to be re examined, he would be willing to contribute to it.

Can give marriage his four younger brothers and the East if you, this is really taking advantage of the fire.

He didn't know whether Xia Jin would be willing to quit, but he was determined that his fourth brother would rather have Hongdu destroyed and killed his opponent than abandon Xia Jin and marry another man, no matter who he was!

"Father, with the temperament of his fourth brother, even if you give the imperial edict, he will never marry Dongfang youruo!"

Xiao Yiqi's voice and color are very solemn. There is no third party between his fourth brother and Xia Jin.

"I certainly know that in this world, except Xia Jin, no one can make yuan Er bow his head."

Xiao Chenglang's eyes are far away and his look is inexplicable!

Xiao Yichen and Xiao Yi were shocked at the same time. They subconsciously looked at each other. Could it be that

Sure enough, Xiao Chenglang's next words confirmed his conjecture.

"Qi'er, take this memorial out of the palace and give it to Xia Jin. Whether or not I will issue this edict is up to Xia Jin."

Xiao Yiyuan may not listen to him, but he will never refuse Xia Jin.

Xiao Chenglang knew that his actions were extremely cruel to Xia Jin. However, Xiao Yiyuan went to the battlefield with his seriously injured body, and Hongdu City mixed with the enemy's meticulous work. The final outcome of this battle is extremely unpredictable.

He did not dare to gamble on Xiao Yiyuan's life. Dongfang was more prosperous than the northern Hebei city. He worked hard for many years, and there were many secret channels in the city that only one person knew.

For other mobile phones, northern Hebei is easy to attack but hard to defend, but it is not so for dongfangkuo.

In this world, no one is more suitable for the post of city guard in northern Hebei than dongfangkuo.

Although Xiao Chenglang spoke slowly, his attitude was very firm. Xiao Yichen and Xiao Yichen knew that there was no room for them to turn around. In this case, they couldn't figure out other ways, so they had to obey his orders and leave after the ceremony.

……

When he comes out of the imperial study, Xiao Yichen calls Xiao Yiqi, who wants to leave directly

"Don't let Xia Jin know about the memorial."

"Good."

Xiao Yiqi understood what Xiao Chen thought in his heart, and it happened that he was the same idea, so he immediately answered it.
