As soon as the Great Zhou Emperor said this, the whole audience was shocked.
「Give Yannan Pass to Ning’an. Can she do it?」 Wu Wanzhou said: 「If it’s about writing poems and lyrics, Ning’an is naturally no problem, but that’s the battlefield!」
Wu Qianfan slightly frowned and said, “Father Emperor, are you planning to let Ye Changsheng accompany Ning’an to guard?」
”No.” The Great Zhou Emperor shook his head and said, “I am going to order three hundred thousand elite soldiers to follow Ning’an to guard Yannan Pass, and the remaining one hundred thousand elite soldiers to guard the imperial city.」
Wu Wanzhou and Wu Qianfan were dumbfounded.
They had just volunteered, but the Father Emperor said they were too tender and couldn’t hold down those generals, but now why did he send Ning’an to lead the troops again?
What exactly is the Father Emperor up to?
Ye Qiu looked at the Great Zhou Emperor twice. He vaguely guessed something.
”Father Emperor, Ning’an has never fought a war. She is not suitable to be the commander.” Wu Wanzhou said.
”Then have you fought a war?” The Great Zhou Emperor asked.
”I…” Wu Wanzhou paused and said, “Although I have not fought a war, I am a man. A man can adapt to the battlefield quickly.」
The Great Zhou Emperor said, “What’s the use of adapting to the battlefield? I want Yannan Pass to be safe.」
”Although Ning’an has never fought a war, she is familiar with military books. In terms of deploying troops and setting up battle arrays, even General Li is not as good as her.」
”Don’t look at Ning’an as a woman. She has strategies in her chest and is much stronger than you two.」
”This matter need not be discussed further.」
Wu Wanzhou quickly looked at Emperor Wu of Zhou sitting beside him and winked, hoping that Emperor Wu of Zhou would stop Emperor Da Zhou.
「What are you looking at me for?」 Emperor Wu of Zhou said: 「Your father is the emperor, and now he has the final say in Da Zhou.」
Suddenly, Wu Wanzhou was like an eggplant beaten by frost.
As the eldest prince of Da Zhou, he really wanted to go to the battlefield. As long as this battle was won, he could gain high prestige and thus lay the foundation for the future crown prince status.
But unexpectedly, Emperor Da Zhou disagreed and insisted on sending Ning’an to guard Yannan Pass.
“Ning’an is a girl “without cultivation and no experience in leading troops to fight. Letting her guard Yannan Pass is not random?”
Although Wu Wanzhou was dissatisfied in his heart, he didn’t dare to show the slightest bit on his face..Ь.
He knew his father emperor too well. If he showed dissatisfaction at this time, he would be severely beaten.
「Your Majesty!」 At this time, Zhu Shu hurried in from the outside, and Kong Tianxia was still following beside him.
Seeing Kong Tianxia, Ye Qiu smiled. He had already guessed the purpose of Emperor Da Zhou.
Zhu Shu reported: 「Your Majesty, Young Master Kong has come.」
「Greetings to Your Majesty.」 Kong Tianxia bowed slightly and said: 「Your Majesty, you came to me late at night. I wonder what’s the matter?」
「How is your junior brother?」 Emperor Da Zhou asked.
Kong Tianxia replied, “Since my junior brother fainted during the day, he hasn’t woken up yet. His pulse is calm and there should be no serious problem.」
”That’s good.” The Great Zhou Emperor said, “I’m looking for you late at night because I want to ask you to promise me one thing.」
”Your Majesty, please speak.」
The Great Zhou Emperor said, “You are Ning’an’s senior brother. At any time, you will protect Ning’an comprehensively, right?」
”Naturally.” Kong Tianxia said, “Ning’an is my little junior sister. As the senior brother, it is my bounden duty to protect her comprehensively.」
”However, doesn’t the little junior sister have Brother Ye to protect her?」
The Great Zhou Emperor then briefly recounted the matter of the Great Wei starting the war and then said, “I’m going to send Ning’an to lead three hundred thousand troops to guard Yannan Pass.」
”Although I know that Ning’an has great military strategy, she has never been on the battlefield. I hope you can help her.」
”You have read the books of sages and sages. You don’t want to see the common people in the world displaced, do you?」
Kong Tianxia said, “Please rest assured, Your Majesty. I will definitely protect the little junior sister well.」
For fear that the Great Zhou Emperor would not believe it, Kong Tianxia added, “As long as I’m alive, I will definitely ensure that Ning’an is safe and sound.」
The Great Zhou Emperor smiled and said, “I knew
that you are a person who values affection and righteousness. Sure enough, you didn’t disappoint me.」
”Ning’an is the commander-in-chief this time. I’m very relieved that you can help her by her side.」
”Well, for the convenience of your actions in the army, I will appoint you as the deputy commander-in-chief to assist Ning’an.」
「Zhu Qian, bestow the tiger talisman!」
Uncle Zhu quickly took out the tiger talisman and handed it to Kong Tianxia’s hands.
Kong Tianxia was a bit confused. How could he become the deputy commander of the Great Zhou with just a few words?
Although he said he would help his junior sister, he didn’t promise to be the deputy commander!
At this time, Ye Qiu walked to Kong Tianxia’s side, patted him on the shoulder, and said, 「Brother Kong, Ning’an is relying on you for protection.」
「Brother Ye, aren’t you going with junior sister?」 Kong Tianxia asked.
The Great Zhou Emperor said, 「Changsheng has other tasks. This time, it all depends on you to protect Ning’an.」
Kong Tianxia immediately said, 「Please rest assured, Your Majesty and Brother Ye. I will definitely protect junior sister well.」
「Thank you, Brother Kong.」 Ye Qiu bent down to salute.
「Brother Ye, you don’t have to do this.」 Kong Tianxia said, 「You have a great kindness to me. Not to mention that you have spoken, even if you hadn’t spoken, protecting junior sister is also my bounden duty.」 XiuShu.com
「Brother Kong is deeply righteous. When you return, I will toast you three cups.」 Ye Qiu added, 「Also, don’t worry about Zhuge Chaoyang. My father will send someone to take good care of him.」
「After the war is over, I will personally refine pills to help Zhuge Chaoyang recover.」
「Thank you, Brother Ye.」 Kong Tianxia said gratefully.
Seeing that this matter was finalized, the Great Zhou Emperor said, 「Little Kong, you will lead the army to set off early tomorrow morning. It’s getting late. Go back and rest quickly!」
「Alright.」Kong Tianxia greeted Ye Qiu and left the main hall.
As soon as he left, Wu Wanzhou said, 「Father, Kong Tianxia is just a bookworm and doesn’t know how to lead troops in battle at all.」
「Besides, he just broke through to the peak of the Saint realm. It’s not certain that he can protect Ning’an completely.」
「Letting Ning’an lead the troops is really too risky. Let me go instead!」
The Great Zhou Emperor said angrily, 「You know shit. Get out of here!」
「Father…」Wu Wanzhou wanted to say something more, but the Great Zhou Emperor glared and said, 「Get lost!」
Wu Wanzhou had to leave resentfully.
「Qianfan, early tomorrow morning, you and your elder brother start patrolling the city. The imperial city is an important place and there must be no mistakes.」The Great Zhou Emperor ordered.
「Yes.」Wu Qianfan replied.
「Alright, you go and rest too. Take a good bath. You stink.」The Great Zhou Emperor waved his hand.
「Your son retires.」Wu Qianfan also left.
At this time, there were only a few people left in the main hall.
「Uncle, good trick!」Ye Qiu said with a smile.
「You saw it?」The Great Zhou Emperor smiled.
「It’s so obvious. How could I not see it?」Ye Qiu said, 「Letting Kong Tianxia help Ning’an guard Yannan Pass is simply putting the Master on the fire.」
「The Master has high hopes for Kong Tianxia and loves Ning’an very much. As a master, it is impossible for the Master not to take action.」
“What a brilliant move to force someone onto a situation where one has no choice but to take drastic action!”
