Family Has a Concubine

The Chu family?

As soon as these two words came out, all the officials in the court were startled, and even Emperor Zhengxuan's eyes widened.

By the way, how could they forget that there is Chu's family! That is the family of the number one general of Daqi. But nine years ago, the defeat was too miserable, and he became the laughing stock of the whole country, like a bereaved dog.

Although the Chu family is now the number one scholar, it is not as good as other high schools. Some people will secretly ridicule, saying that the Chu family is a family of great generals and heroes for generations. Reading, changing the door and changing the lintel.

After everyone's mood was agitated, they frowned deeply. This Chu family has been ruined like that, and it has changed to the literary route. Can it still go to war?

Emperor Zhengxuan looked at Chu Yunpan below seriously: "Is it Chu Zheng who wants to ask for a fight?"

"Back to the emperor, my father's old wounds are still unhealed, his movements are inconvenient, and he has no intention of fighting. It is the humble minister who wants to fight." Chu Yunpan said.

"What? You?" The courtiers were taken aback, Qian Zhixin frowned deeply: "Isn't Chu Xiuzhuan the number one scholar? He's a civil servant!"

Chu Yunpan said: "I am willing to give up my pen and join the army."

The courtiers' eyes widened in shock, especially Zhao Fanxu, who felt that the young number one scholar had a brain hole!

Who doesn't know that Chu Zhuangyuan is deeply favored by the Holy One, as long as he doesn't commit any crimes and walks down steadily, the road ahead will be bright!

But now, he actually said that he was going to the battlefield to die? !

"Ridiculous!" A cold shout sounded, but it was Old Master Zheng.

Old Master Zheng hated the Chu family the most. He used to always hold the other generals on top of him. Once he fell, I don't know how many people felt very comfortable. During this period of time, when the Chu family got up, he felt a little displeased, but that was all. After all, taking the scientific research was a different path from them. But now, the Chu family actually said that they would return to the battlefield.

Old Master Zheng thought it was ridiculous, but he felt like he was facing a big enemy.

"Yes, extremely absurd!" Qian Zhixin said coldly, "You are a powerless civil servant, who gave you the courage to lead the army?"

"Yellow-haired boy, I don't know the seriousness." Yao Yangcheng said.

"The Chu family boy is really naive." A deep voice sounded, and it was a big man with a beard, and it was Shangguan Xiu, the commander of the imperial army, "Do you think the battlefield is playing with mud? Or, as a literati, you have read a lot , also familiar with the art of war, and even good at military chess, so you think that the battlefield is like a chessboard, and you can do whatever you want just by following the book of war?"

As he said that, Shangguan Xiu laughed out loud: "In the moment of life and death on the battlefield, every inch of territory and every inch of blood. You are full of theories and strategies. Seeing those corpses, sharp arrows and stumps flying in front of your eyes, you are afraid. I'm going to freak out."

His words were very vulgar, but the name of the sentence made sense, and the courtiers couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Qian Zhixin said coldly: "It's not a pity for someone like you to die on the battlefield, but if the general is not talented, tens of thousands of soldiers will die."

When the courtiers heard this, they looked at Chu Yunpan very unkindly.

Soldiers are not soldiers, they think it's nothing, after all, as long as they go to the battlefield, it means someone dies. To them, that is just a huge number.

But if these numbers are sent out, if they die, it means that Da Qi's combat power will be cut by more than half. This is not regaining the territory, it is simply cutting off Da Qi's siblings!

Old Master Zheng said: "Nine years ago, wasn't the Chu family's defeat tragic enough? I'm afraid the compensation for the 100,000 soldiers has not been paid out yet, right?" He said, casting a cold glance at Chu Yunpan.

Emperor Zhengxuan looked at Chu Yunpan at the bottom, his eyes flickering, and he saw that the young man at the bottom was calm and desolate.

Chu Yunpan said indifferently: "The Zheng family has never experienced such a tragedy. Old Master Zheng said that people like me are not worthy of going to war, so let the Zheng family go."

Old Master Zheng's face changed when he heard this: "You, I—"

Who doesn't want to contribute to the country, recover the rivers and mountains, and become a national hero. But that place is a place where people can eat people without spitting out their bones, and they know that they will die. Who wants to go? Obviously it was to give away the head! At that time, their Zheng family will not only suffer a lot of casualties, but also end up in a notorious end.

"How? The Zheng family won't go?" Chu Yunpan said and looked at Qian Zhixin who talked the most: "Master Qian, let's go!"

Qian Zhixin was dizzy, and said angrily: "My Qian family is a scholarly family, generations of scholars, who will lead the army to fight? Our family is naturally willing to die for Daqi, but rashly leading the army will kill tens of thousands of soldiers and people. You Isn't it intentional to deceive people?"

Chu Yunpan looked around at the other courtiers, who were swept away by his sharp gaze, shook their bodies, and then lowered their heads.

"Then what do you think? Let you go, you don't go. You don't go yourself, and you don't let others go. What is your intention? Do you want to give up Yu'an Pass?" Chu Yunpan threw his icy words on the hall , and finally laughed out loud.

Emperor Zhengxuan's expression changed: "How could I abandon my people!"

Yu'an Pass is very important. Once this city is lost, the twelve states in the southwest will be divided between Xilu and Nanman.

Chu Yunpan continued: "It's not that there are no troops to dispatch now. If you don't send troops to go out and watch the twelve southwest states fall into the enemy's hands, the morale of Daqi will be severely damaged. Will the people and soldiers still trust the court?"

Will the people and soldiers still believe in him as the emperor? Emperor Zhengxuan heard these words in his heart, and the flesh on his face trembled slightly.

"The fall of the twelve states in the southwest will inevitably lead to a large number of refugees. When the time comes, burning, killing and looting will cause the people to have no peace, and public grievances will increase sharply. At that time, the refugees and the people will definitely lead to uprising." Chu Yunpan said.

Emperor Zhengxuan and his courtiers listened to the twitching of the green rod on his forehead. They naturally thought of these problems, but they just didn't want to face them. Now being laid bare in front of them, they are forced to face it.

Now it is, knowing that sending troops to go out will be defeated, so you have to go!

For prestige! For fame! After the defeat, when there were internal and external troubles, the common people still believed in Daqi, leaving them the opportunity to suppress and counterattack.

Emperor Zhengxuan's slack old face trembled, his tired and old eyes fell on the graceful, calm and steady handsome young man below.

"Chu Family's Saburo Chu Yun's listening order—" Emperor Zhengxuan's deep voice sounded.

"Your Majesty!" Minister of the Ministry of War shouted anxiously, cupped his hands and said, "If you have to go out alone, you don't have to write it by Chu Xiu, and you don't have to send a civil servant out..."

"That's not Xiuzhuan, that's the Chu family!" Emperor Zhengxuan snorted coldly.

The courtiers trembled and realized instantly. If it is necessary to go out alone now, it must be Chu Yunpan.

Because it was the Chu family.

Generations of heroes, even if they fall, are still famous, and the Chu family's reputation can't be suppressed! And it sounds good too.

The emperor didn't send people out casually, he sent Chu Jiaerlang, the former gatekeeper of Yingcheng.

"Your Majesty, why don't you send Uncle Chu?" said Wu Yiyi, the commander of the Gyeonggi Camp. He admired the young man's valor, righteousness, and devotion, and for that reason he did not want to see him die.

"No, just Chu Sanlang." Emperor Zhengxuan looked at Chu Yunpan below, and said firmly.

In Uncle Chu, Emperor Zhengxuan saw only the same senility as him, alive and dead. But the young man standing in front of him is calm and cold, but like a peerless famous sword that is slowly drawn away, revealing half of the peak that is hard to see, the sound of the sword's chant is hidden in the cold iron sheath, making him silent due to old age and pain The immobile blood seemed to be boiling slightly at this moment.

"Acknowledgment." Emperor Zhengxuan said, "Chu Yunpan, the third son of the Chu family, is now appointed as the second-rank general to conquer the West, and go to Yu'an Pass for me to retake the rivers and mountains."

Chu Yunpan flicked the hem of his robe, and knelt down on one knee: "Thank you, Lord Long."

As he said, Emperor Zhengxuan picked up something from the dragon table and threw it down: "Take it, the tiger talisman, it's yours!"

Chu Yunpan took it with one hand and spread out his palm, only to see that it was a tiger-shaped right talisman made of black iron, engraved with gold patterns of seal characters, thick and cold.

Liang Wang looked at the tiger talisman lying in Chu Yunpan's hand, his charming eyes flashed slightly, and his red lips curled into a smile.

"Departure today, go to the east camp to order troops—" Emperor Zhengxuan said, then paused for a moment and began to think.

"Fifty thousand soldiers!" Qian Zhixin said anxiously.

"Yes, Your Majesty, order 50,000 soldiers." Yao Yangcheng gritted his teeth and said, he wished he could get 10,000 soldiers.

The surrounding courtiers also agreed: "General Chu is young and promising, brave and unparalleled, 50,000 soldiers and horses are enough."

He knew that he was going to die, but it was only for Daqi's face, and he had to go out to give the people an explanation. In this case, why bring so many people to take risks?
