The opening saint broke into my backyard

Chapter 242 Don't Be Busy in Thanking You

At this moment, an urgent military report came from outside.

According to the military newspaper, the foreign races on the southern border began to burn, kill and loot wantonly on the border.

The border of the southern region is far away from the imperial capital, and it is beyond the reach of the Han Empire. There are many fierce and brutal alien races in the border of the southern region.It has always been a chronic disease of the Han Empire.Every year, the Han Dynasty had to pay a lot of property in order to calm things down.Now it is probably because the money is used up, and the old tricks are repeated, wantonly harassing, robbing property, and slaughtering border residents.

The Holy Emperor did not expect that such trouble would come before his butt was hot.He was a little panicked, and asked Xi Mengyao: "Sister Huang, what do you think about this matter?"

Xi Mengyao said: "Holy Emperor, I don't know what to do with this matter? In the past, it was handled by the regent."

Xi Mengyao thought in her heart, didn't you just say that you can govern the country well without the regent?So what do you do now?
The Holy Emperor looked at Xiao Chengzi, didn't this guy always have ideas?But at this moment, he deliberately lowered his head, not wanting to look at the Holy Emperor.

Can Xiao Chengzi keep his head down?If Huo Huo came up with an idea, maybe he would be fine, but how could he come up with such an idea, could it be that he was asked to lead troops to fight, if he didn't fight, the army would be defeated.

The Holy Emperor was sweating, in desperation, he could only lower his face and begged Zhuo Xiaofan, "Regent, what do you think about this matter?"

Zhuo Xiaofan sneered: "Holy Emperor, have you forgotten what you said just now? Besides, as I said just now, I, the regent, will resign."

"You..." The Holy Emperor blushed with anger, turned to Xi Mengyao and said, "Sister Huang, look, he did it on purpose."

Xi Mengyao did not stand beside the Holy Emperor this time, but said indifferently: "You are not joking, you just said that in front of so many people."

The Holy Emperor was so anxious that he suddenly saw the list on the desk. By the way, isn't this Gu Chengwu going to be the general of the town?Now is the time to employ people, and he can come in handy, and when the time comes, he will be able to gag Zhuo Xiaofan's mouth if he wins the battle.

So the Holy Emperor said to Xiao Chengzi: "Let Gu Chengwu go to the palace."

Xiaochengzi trembled all over, and immediately realized that the situation was wrong, and hurriedly asked: "Holy Emperor, what is the purpose of passing on Gu Chengwu?"

"Since he is going to be the general of the town, he must be superior in culture and martial arts. Let him lead the troops to quell the rebellion on the border of the southern region. After he comes back, I will definitely appreciate his merits." Shenghuang said.

Xiao Chengzi's legs went limp, what can this guy do?Play tricks, lead troops to fight, forget it.The reason why he was included in the list of the generals of the town is because among the generals, he gave himself the most gold coins. This official is big and small, and he is measured by the money he receives.

Seeing the hesitation on Xiao Chengzi's face, the Holy Emperor said, "Why, is there something wrong with Gu Chengwu?"

"No, no problem." Xiao Chengzi stammered.

"Then pass it on quickly." The Holy Emperor said.

Not long after, Gu Chengwu came to the imperial study in a hurry.He has a dusty face, but there is a smile on his face.It seems that my money was not given away in vain. At this time, the holy emperor summoned me, and it must be to reward me.

He knelt down in front of the Holy Emperor, shouting long live three times.

The Holy Emperor said: "Stay flat. Gu Aiqing, I heard that you are versatile in civil and military affairs, and I also intend to let you be the general of the town."

Hearing this, the joy on Gu Chengwu's face became more and more bright, it seemed that the matter was settled.

He hurriedly fell to his knees with a plop: "Thank you Long En."

As he spoke, he glanced at Gu Chengwu, wanting to express his gratitude.But he saw a very embarrassed look on Xiao Chengzi's face.Why is there such an expression, shouldn't you be happy for yourself?

Before he could figure it out, he suddenly heard the Holy Emperor say: "Don't be too busy thanking me, I have a premise. Now that there is a rebellion on the border of the Southern Region, I want you to lead an army of [-] and wipe it out. If you successfully complete the task , I will reward you immediately."

Gu Chengwu now finally understood why Xiao Chengzi had such an expression on his face. It turned out that he wanted to lead the army to fight by himself.That's a barren land on the border of the Southern Territory, everyone there is fierce and brutal, wouldn't you go to that place by yourself to seek death?
This is how to do?He cast a look of help to Xiao Chengzi, but Xiao Chengzi turned his eyes to other places on purpose.Grandma, you have collected so much money from me, but now you are acting stupid for me.But in this imperial study room, he didn't dare to do anything wrong.

what to do?what to do?Gu Chengwu turned his head and came up with a solution.

He coughed dryly twice on purpose: "Holy Emperor, it's not that I don't try my best, it's just that I have recently suffered some cold and contracted a disease, and I'm afraid it will delay the important affairs of the Holy Emperor. From now on, I will take good care of myself and serve the Holy Emperor well." .”

Zhuo Xiaofan saw through this guy's trick at a glance, he said loudly: "It's not a problem, the Holy Emperor has a lot of imperial doctors with superb medical skills, just take a look and it will be easy to heal. Don't delay the matter."

Seeing Zhuo Xiaofan digging a hole for himself, Gu Chengwu glared at Zhuo Xiaofan angrily.With his personality, if it wasn't for the Imperial Study Room, he would have already rushed up here.

When the Holy Emperor heard this, it made sense. It was the first time he had maintained such a highly consistent view with the Prince Regent.

"Yes, there are many imperial doctors who are proficient in medical skills in the palace, and there are also many elixir. They will definitely cure your illness soon." The Holy Emperor said.

Gu Chengwu was terrified. If he asked the imperial doctor to take his pulse, he would show his feet all at once. That would be a serious crime of deceiving the emperor, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Thank you, the emperor, for your concern. My minister has already seen it." I went to the doctor and took some medicine, and I feel much better."

"In this case, then I will give you one hundred thousand soldiers and horses, and choose a day to lead the troops to put down the rebels on the border of the southern region." The Holy Emperor said.

Gu Chengwu had a bitter face, not knowing what to do?To accept or not to accept is just a matter of dying sooner or later.If you don't pick it up, you will offend the Holy Emperor and die immediately. If you pick it up, you will still die at the border of the southern region, but it will be a later death.It's better to die late than early, and if you win by chance.Well, take it then.

Just as he was about to take over this task, Xiao Chengzi's voice suddenly sounded: "Holy Emperor, although this Gu Chengwu is a man of letters and martial arts, he is definitely not as experienced as the regent king in leading troops in battle. It is better to let the regent king lead the army and Gu Chengwu be a prisoner." Army, assisting from the side. Wouldn't it be more perfect."

Xiao Chengzi and Jin Huwei were even more dissatisfied with Zhuo Xiaofan because their family members were killed by Dong Zhou. Now that they have such an opportunity, they might as well let the regent take the place of the dead.If he wins, Gu Chengwu will also be rewarded, and he can be fooled about Gu Chengwu's affairs. If he loses, he will give more attention to the Holy Emperor, and the main responsibility will fall on the regent.Anyway, the Holy Emperor was not happy looking at the Regent.
