After being read, she became an empress by eating melons

Nan Rongxi: [Okay, I have to go home quickly too! ]

Nan Rongxi quickly mounted the pony and rushed home.

After arriving home, Nan Rongjie saw Nan Rongxi, who was also puzzled: "Ah Xi, why did you take so long to come back? Did you get the letter?"

As Nan Rongxi settled Xiao Ma down, he replied, "Dad, I've got the letter. I did a good deed on my way back, so it took me some time."

After Nan Rongxi finished speaking, he handed the letter to Nan Rongjie.

Nan Rongjie didn't believe that Nan Rongxi was doing good deeds. He knew about his daughter's situation. However, seeing that the content of the letter was quite serious, he didn't ask any more questions!

He opened the envelope, and the contents inside made Nan Rongjie's expression tense instantly, as if a gust of cold wind had blown through him. He murmured to himself, with a hint of nervousness that could not be concealed in his voice: "What was coming has finally come!"

Nan Rongxi noticed the change in her father, and a wave of uneasiness surged in her heart. She quietly approached and asked softly, "Dad, what exactly is written in the letter? Did something happen?"

Nan Rongjie took a deep breath, trying to calm his heart. He slowly handed the letter to Nan Rongxi, with a hint of heaviness in his voice: "Look for yourself, this time Northern Qi has sent hundreds of thousands of troops to invade, the Ministry of Revenue must prepare military rations immediately."

Nan Rongxi took the letter, her eyes quickly scanned the words, and a feeling of astonishment surged in her heart.

Hundreds of thousands of troops is not a small number. This is a preparation to destroy a country!

Nan Rongxi suddenly felt that he was really unlucky. How could he encounter a war just after traveling through time?

She looked up at her father, her eyes full of worry: "Dad, what should we do? Will our family be affected as well?"

Nan Rongjie was silent for a moment, and a firmness flashed in his eyes: "Yes, the family will definitely be affected this time, but we are the people of Da Zhou and an important member of the Ministry of Households. We must shoulder this responsibility."

At this time, Eunuch Zhao also hurried into the Nanrong Mansion and said breathlessly: "My two Nanrongs, the emperor wants to convene an emergency meeting of all officials. Please go to the palace immediately!"

Nan Rongjie and Nan Rongxi looked at each other, both with solemn expressions. Nan Rongjie said to Eunuch Zhao, "Eunuch Zhao, we are going to the palace right away."

Eunuch Zhao nodded and quickly turned around and left!

When they arrived at the palace, all the officials had already gathered together, and the atmosphere was tense and solemn. The emperor sat on the dragon throne, his face solemn, and his eyes swept over everyone.

Emperor Rentong said slowly: "Now that Northern Qi has raised hundreds of thousands of troops to invade, what suggestions do you have, my dear ministers?"

The national strength of Northern Qi has always been stronger than that of Northern Zhou. Although the strength of Great Zhou has increased since Emperor Rentong ascended the throne, its territory and population are not as good as those of Northern Qi, and the cavalry combat effectiveness of Northern Qi is the strongest in Central China. Therefore, Emperor Rentong can be said to be worried this time.

Taiwei Chi Zijian stepped forward, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Northern Qi has prepared hundreds of thousands of troops this time. It seems that they are well prepared. Our top priority now is to gather troops to support the north. We must focus on defense this time. As long as we wait until winter comes, they will naturally retreat without a fight! I am willing to lead the troops north to fight against Northern Qi!"

When Emperor Rentong heard this, his expression eased a little: "Chi Aiqing, if that's the case, then the task of leading the troops this time is handed over to you. Don't let me down!"

Nan Rongxi stood in the back row and complained: [Tongzi, Tongzi, why am I so pitiful? I encountered such a big war as soon as I came here! Who can withstand this! ]

Emperor Rentong: ...

Chi Zijian: Yes, and there is also Nan Rongxi!

Nan Rongxi's voice immediately attracted the attention of Emperor Rentong and all the officials: their Great Zhou had such a secret weapon, that was Nan Rongxi's system, and at this critical moment of life and death, it was necessary to shine!

System: [Xizi, don't worry. We can fight back when the enemy comes. You have helped the Great Zhou to improve its strength. I think you are so talented that you can't apply to fight against Northern Qi.]

Nan Rongxi looked disdainful: [I have only small arms and legs. What use can I have on the battlefield? At most I can be cannon fodder!]

Emperor Rentong: Yes, it’s you. With the system here, what are you afraid of?

Chi Zijian: Nan Rongxi can be brought along, just in case he needs it!

Baiguan: Nan Rongxi is here and should be able to help.

The battle against Northern Qi is a big deal, and Emperor Rentong wants to increase the probability of victory as much as possible. Obviously, if Nan Rongxi goes, the probability of victory will definitely be greater.

System: [Xizi, what are you afraid of? I am here to help you achieve success! ]

When Emperor Rentong heard this, his eyes lit up: Now it's stable.

Chi Zijian quickly stood up, bowed and continued, "Your Majesty, I think Nanrong Yuanwailang is a rare genius that only appears once in a century. If we can let her join the team to fight this time, we will definitely be able to defeat Northern Qi!"

Murong Qing took a step forward: "I second the motion!"

Ye Sheng took a step forward: "I second the motion!"

All the officials agreed, except Nan Rongjie who stood still. Sailing by boat or by horse was dangerous, not to mention fighting a war and traveling so far. He was worried.

Nan Rongjie cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I don't think this is appropriate. I have no military experience and I'm afraid I'll be a hindrance if I go!"

Emperor Rentong had no other options. With hundreds of thousands of troops, they had no way to fight without the system's help. He waved his hand and said, "My dear Nanrong, General Chi will ensure the safety of your daughter. Don't worry!"

After hearing this, Nan Rongjie remained silent.

Nan Rongxi was confused. War was no joke...

Nan Rongxi: [Tongzi, ahhhh… I don’t want to go. I have to run so far and fight. I’m afraid of blood. Help! Is there any way I can avoid going? ? ? ]

Emperor Rentong: ...

Chi Zijian: …

Officials: ...

System: [Xizi, the emperor has specifically asked you to go, what else can you do? Maybe this will turn out to be a blessing in disguise!]

Nan Rongxi cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have never been to a battlefield, so I am afraid I can't be of much help..."

Chi Zijian quickly added: "Mr. Nanrong, you just need to follow me in the base camp. You don't have to go to the front line. It can be said that it is very safe. You just need to provide some strategies!"

Nan Rongxi looked helpless: [This Chi Zijian is really vicious. He insisted on dragging me into this. I’m from the Ministry of Revenue, not the Ministry of War. He wanted to arrest me in the war. I’m a girl, but I have to go to the front line. Why am I so miserable…]

Chi Zijian: …

Emperor Rentong continued, "My dear Nanrong, if we can win this battle against Northern Qi, I will definitely reward the Nanrong family handsomely! I hope you won't refuse!"

Nan Rongxi was helpless. Why did he have to go to a war? But he could only reply helplessly: "I obey your order!"

When Nan Rongjie heard this, his face turned pale. He asked Nan Rongxi to come to court in the first place so that she could make a living, but now he even wanted his daughter to go to the battlefield.

He is just an ordinary father. In his opinion, Nan Rongxi's safety is more important than the Nan Rong family's wealth and fame.
