Chapter 301 Give Her a Chance

Chapter 301 Give her a chance

Prime Minister Ren's expression suddenly became ugly: "What do you mean by that? Are you teaching the old minister a lesson? Did you say that the old minister has ambitions? Isn't everything the old minister did for the emperor."

"Comparing the current King Xiao and the Emperor, I'm afraid that among the common people, there are far more people who know King Xiao than the Emperor. If this continues, King Xiao will become the next Liu family."

"When the emperor was alive, he favored King Xiao, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw the empress dowager's eyes widen: "Father, you are so confused!"

Prime Minister Ren was taken aback by the empress dowager's attitude: "What are you doing? The old minister hasn't finished talking yet?"

Looking at the ups and downs of the empress dowager's chest, he knew that he was very angry. For some reason, Prime Minister Ren felt a little guilty. He obviously felt that he had done nothing wrong.

If the emperor wants to secure his throne, he must defeat King Xiao! But looking at the meaning of the empress dowager, it doesn't seem to be the case? The empress dowager was furious.

After some difficulty, he regained his composure and looked at Prime Minister Ren: "Father, do you know who that King Xiao is?"

Prime Minister Ren was very speechless: "The son of the late emperor and empress Qing, I never thought that the late emperor would love Mu Yexiao so much, and even give him the status of a legitimate son after his death."

The empress dowager was almost laughed at. Mu Yexiao's identity was not selected because of the reputation of the former emperor, so although several people knew about Mu Yexiao's life experience.

But there was no plan to make it public, but the empress dowager didn't expect that because of this, her father would start to deal with her son, and took a deep breath.

"Father, do you know that Mu Yexiao is also a child of the Ai family? He and the emperor are twin brothers. How can you sow discord like this?"

"The brotherhood between them is not something you can provoke. You should stop making the emperor hate you. You know, last time you went to the palace to encourage the empress dowager."

"When Qian Jiujiu was made a side concubine, King Xiao already hated the Ren family? And when the emperor was sick, the Ren family never showed any kindness."

"You are still doing things that the emperor despises so much, father, are you really old?"

But Prime Minister Ren didn't hear the other words of the Empress Dowager at all, but he was so bombarded by the news that he almost couldn't recover: "You said, Mu Yexiao is also your child?"

The Empress Dowager nodded: "Yes, the child of Imperial Concubine Qing died when she was born, the late Emperor was worried that she would be sad, so he hugged my Xiao'er."

"So father, don't try to stir up the brotherhood between them. It's useless for you to provoke. If Xiao'er really wants to be the emperor."

"I'm afraid there is no business for the emperor anymore, so you should stop doing things that the emperor hates."

Prime Minister Ren sighed: "I didn't expect this to happen. I know what happened next."

Although this is what he said, it would be good if the Ren family could go further. The Empress Dowager and Prime Minister Ren had talked a lot, so they were a little tired.

"Father, you go back first."

Only then did Prime Minister Ren take his leave and retreated. And the fact that Prime Minister Ren came to the harem to meet the empress dowager was soon known by the empress, and she even had someone tell the emperor about it.

The emperor was discussing things with Mu Yexiao in the palace, when he heard the eunuch come forward to talk about it, the emperor let the eunuch go down, and then looked at Mu Yexiao.

"Imperial brother, it seems that Prime Minister Ren already knows your identity. Do you think the Ren family's ambition is too big? Or does the Ren family think that I am so narrow-minded?"

Mu Yexiao raised his eyebrows: "The Ren family, in fact, this is fine. Above the court, the scariest thing is whoever speaks other than the emperor. It's good to have multiple voices."

The emperor immediately understood what Mu Yexiao meant, and couldn't help being amused: "You are right, forget it, let him make trouble."

"If you want to go to the Gan country, then on the border of the Ning country, have you made up your mind who you want to hand it over to?"

Mu Yexiao frowned: "On the border of Ningguo, just hand it over to Gu Xiangning. Speaking of Gu Xiangning, I haven't explained it yet, but that is the young master of Mingyue Island."

"He's also Jiu'er's younger brother. He is excellent in both civil and martial arts, and his art of war is not a problem. He is also good at fortune-telling in medicine. He is proficient in everything. He is definitely a general."

"It's just that the matter of Mingyue Island is not easy to bring to light. After all, Ningguo still has a mother and daughter of Mingyue Island who have not dealt with it. Now is not the time to announce the official birth of Mingyue Island."

"So although Gu Xiangning has outstanding abilities, he has no qualifications and directly controls the border of a country."

The emperor listened to what Mu Yexiao said: "What you said makes sense, but I believe you have a solution, right? Let's hear it."

Mu Yexiao smiled: "Didn't Prime Minister Ren say that? Give young people a chance, you also said, let all the ministers recommend talents, and then everyone will compare, don't you know?"

The emperor was a little curious: "Then who are you going to recommend? Gu Xiangning, you're not in the capital anymore."

Mu Yexiao smiled confidently: "I know that there is a person who obeys Gu Xiangning's words. If you let her go, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort, and this person is also a person who is both civil and military."

The emperor became even more interested: "Speaking so powerfully, who is it?"

"Brother Huang, you also know this person. As for whether she can succeed, it depends on you, Brother Huang. The person this king is talking about is Chen Man'er, the lord of Yongxi County."

It was Yongxi, the emperor was stunned for a moment, but he felt a little bad feeling in his heart: "You mean, Yongxi obeyed Gu Xiangning's words, why?"

Mu Yexiao glanced at the emperor: "This is because Xiaoman's medical skills were taught by Gu Xiangning, except for Jiu'er, and Xiaoman's martial arts was also taught by Gu Xiangning."

"There was a master-student relationship between the two, and now they are righteous brothers and sisters."

Hearing that they were brother and sister, the emperor felt a little more at ease, but he didn't know that on Mingyue Island, it was normal for righteous brothers and sisters to get married.

It's different from Da Zhou's customs, so I didn't take it to heart: "It's fine, but Xiao Man is a woman after all, and she's still a child, can it work?"

Mu Yexiao smiled confidently: "That's why I said, give everyone a fair chance, let's compete and see if Xiaoman can do it."

As he said that, Mu Yexiao raised his head and glanced at the sky outside: "It's getting late, this king is going back. Emperor brother, take your leave."

Before Mu Yexing had time to say anything, he saw that Mu Yexiao had turned around and strode away. He pouted, but he was a little uncertain in his heart. Can Xiaoman do it?

However, since Mu Yexiao had already planned to do this, it seemed that he could not object, but the emperor thought that Xiaoman was a girl and let her go to the battlefield.

I really couldn't do it, I was walking around in the hall a little irritatedly, the empress asked someone to come to the emperor for lunch, and the emperor went directly.

When they arrived at the queen's palace, they had lunch with the queen. During the meal, Lin Chuwu looked at the frowning of the emperor, and couldn't help asking a question with concern.

"Your majesty, have you encountered any troubles? The concubine sees you frowning?"

Mu Yexing glanced at Lin Chuwu: "There is one thing, by the way, Empress, what do you think of Yongxi County Lord?"

Lin Chuwu felt strange: "Why would the emperor ask about Yongxi County Lord? But if you talk about Yongxi County Lord, the concubines really think it."

"This county lord of Yongxi is not bad at all compared to Princess Xiao. He is excellent in both civil and martial arts, and has excellent medical skills. This time he can enter the palace smoothly."

"It's also thanks to County Lord Yongxi! If County Lord Yongxi was a man, I, Da Zhou, would definitely have another pillar, but it's a pity that she is a girl."

The emperor frowned when he heard the queen's words: "Even you feel that she is wronged as a daughter. It seems that I really can't look down on her just because she is a daughter."

"Forget it, give her a chance."

Lin Chuwu was puzzled when she heard this: "Your Majesty, my concubine is puzzled. The county magistrate is still young, what are you?"

Mu Yexing sighed: "That's right, at such a young age, she is already so good. After experiencing the baptism of war, I'm afraid she will become a generation of female generals."

Speaking of it, it's not that there are no female generals, and it's not the first one in the world. Talking to the queen, I feel much more at ease. "

Lin Chuwu's eyes widened. Your Majesty felt relieved, but she was depressed. Chen Man'er is such a cute little girl.

What kind of female general do you want to send someone to the battlefield? Although there were more than one female generals in previous dynasties, there was no such thing in the history of Da Zhou.

"emperor……"

In fact, the queen wants to ask, is this possible to succeed? Just looking at Mu Yexing's must-deserving eyes, she suddenly couldn't ask, so she changed her sentence.

"Then, have you asked the county magistrate about your intentions? Is she willing to go?"

The emperor frowned: "You are right, I will send her into the palace to ask, to see if she is willing in the bottom of her heart."

At this time, in Prince Xiao's mansion, Mu Yexiao had already stood in front of Xiao Man: "Xiao Man, this time the war between you and me is probably on the border of Qian Country."

"Now let me ask you again, do you want to go to the border of Ning country, or go to the border of Gan country with us?"

Xiaoman was a little confused, she always thought that if they went to the battlefield, they would go to the border of Ningguo together, but now it seems that this is not the problem.

Qian Jiujiu also opened her eyes, looking at Xiao Man, waiting for Xiao Man's answer, Xiao Man thought for a while, then looked at the two of them: "Where does brother-in-law want me to go?"

"You want me to go to the border of Ningguo, right? After all, there are sisters and brothers-in-law on the border of Qianguo, so it's unnecessary for me to go."

Mu Yexiao nodded: "That's right, you are very smart, that's exactly what I mean, you can help Gu Xiangning, guard the border, or enter the palace."

"I can rest assured that the two of you are together."
