"If the Marquis of Zhenxi can completely wipe out the Hu tribes on the grassland, then what's wrong with the Ying family coming back?" The Queen Mother narrowed her eyes slightly, her voice full of majesty.

"But if Ying Xuanze comes back, Xiliang will have to have someone else to take over the position of Zhenxi Hou..."

The Queen Mother sat back on the throne. She did not continue speaking, but all the officials understood what she meant.

Huang Chan himself was sweating profusely. He knew that if he failed to eliminate the hidden danger of Ying Xuanze in this battle, he would still be able to achieve outstanding military exploits.

Then there will be no place for Huang Chan in this capital city anymore. If her Wang family can bring down the Ying family, they can also bring down his Huang family.

Of course, Huang Chan knew in his heart that the Queen Mother still wanted Ying Xuanze to die and the Ying family to be destroyed.

What Ying Xuan Ze has done now has posed enough of a threat to her. How to get rid of Ying Xuan Ze is what the Queen Mother is most concerned about at this moment.

Does Wang Ziyi care who is the general leading the 100,000-strong Yinglong Army?

No, she doesn't care. She only cares about whether she can eliminate the hidden danger of Ying Xuanze during this trip to Jiarong Pass.

But if he wanted to get rid of Ying Xuanze, the person who could lead these 100,000 Yinglong troops could only be his own man, and he happened to be someone close to the Queen Mother.

"My lords, do you have any other opinions on my decision?" the Queen Mother asked the ministers.

"I appeal for reconsideration!" Wang Yi spoke first.

"I also want to appeal!" Huang Shen spoke immediately.

"I also want to reconsider it!" The third person to speak was Liu Jie.

Li Yong frowned slightly. Although Huang Yan still went to Jiarong Pass, he could accept that he was only supervising the battle...

It would be better for Cao Mu's descendants to receive rewards for their meritorious service than for that dandy Huang Yan, right?

But in this way, it is still difficult for Xuan Ze to gain military merits...

Li Yong raised his hand and said, "Queen Dowager, I have an opinion."

All the ministers looked over immediately, and Huang Chan saw that it was Li Yong, the old man, who came out to get in the way again, and a trace of anger flashed across his face.

Is this Li Yong really looking for death?

"Oh? What does Li Tingwei have to say?" Queen Mother Wang frowned slightly, obviously feeling a little dissatisfied.

"I think that since the Marquis of Zhenxi destroyed a tribe of Hu people, he must have a better understanding of the habits and fighting methods of the Hu people."

"Why don't we give the overall command of the Yinglong Army to the Marquis of Zhenxi, and let Cao Mu's descendant serve as his deputy commander? What do you think, Queen Mother?"

Huang Chan immediately got angry when he heard this. He pointed at Li Yong and said angrily, "Li Yong! I have already stopped my son from being a general. What? Do you want to give the command of the Yinglong Army to the Marquis of Zhenxi this time?"

Li Yong sneered and said, "Why are you panicking? Are you afraid that the Marquis of Zhenxi will take away your son's credit, or do you think that the Marquis of Zhenxi is too dazzling and makes your son look useless?"

"Old bastard Li Yong! Say it again!" Huang Chan rolled up his sleeves but was quickly stopped by the minister beside him.

"How dare you!" Queen Mother Wang shouted angrily, and Huang Chan calmed down immediately.

She glanced at Huang Chan and Li Yong coldly, and then said in a deep voice: "The court is not a place for you two to quarrel. If there is a next time, you two will get out of this Golden Palace!"

"I know I was wrong!" Li Yong immediately bowed.

"I know I was wrong!" Huang Chan also bowed quickly.

The Queen Mother didn't want to waste time on Ying Xuanze's affairs. Hearing this name now would only give her a headache.

"Forget it. Let's follow Li Tingwei's advice. When the Yinglong Army arrives at Jiarong Pass, the Marquis of Zhenxi will be the commander-in-chief, and the descendant of Cao Mu will be the deputy commander."

"Let's end this matter. Today's court session ends here. Let's adjourn."

The Queen Mother covered her head and stood up from the dragon throne. Seeing this, the young master hurriedly supported her wrist.

"Dismiss the court!" the young master muttered, and then followed the maid to send the Queen Mother back to the harem.

"Farewell to Your Majesty! Farewell to the Queen Mother!" All the ministers bowed in respect.

After the young master and the Queen Mother disappeared in the Golden Palace, Huang Chan snorted coldly and was about to go find trouble with Li Yong.

But Wang Yi suddenly stopped him and said to him coldly: "Let's put aside today's matter for now. Come with me. I have something to tell you."

Huang Chan did not dare to disobey Wang Yi. In the end, he just glanced at Li Yong fiercely and followed Wang Yi out of the hall.

On the other side, Li Yong and other ministers of the Baoying faction left the Golden Palace chatting and laughing.

In the past, they were always suppressed by Huang Chan, and many of their colleagues were even transferred out of the capital.

But today, I am really proud of myself. Of course, all this is thanks to Ying Xuanze's outstanding military exploits at Jiarong Pass!

Today they have secured the command of 100,000 Yinglong troops for Ying Xuanze. With these powerful forces joining forces, how can the Northern Hu tribe not be destroyed?

In this way, the Ying family has hope of returning to Beijing.

Returning to Huang Chan and Wang Yi, the two came to a small pavilion next to the Golden Palace. There were many people standing around the pavilion. These were Wang Yi's close guards.

"Huang Chan, although the Queen Mother agreed to let Huang Yan lead the troops north, you should know what her real purpose is." Wang Yi put his hands behind his back and looked at Huang Chan with indifference.

Huang Chan lowered his head slightly, not daring to look Wang Yi in the eye. He was silent for a moment, and then whispered:

"I guess the Queen Mother wants to use my son to get rid of the Marquis of Zhenxi, right?"

"Even if the Marquis of Zhenxi had special means to achieve victory with fewer troops, he could not have expected that the 100,000 reinforcements sent by the court would suddenly stab him in the back..."

"The grassland is vast and sparsely populated, and since we are fighting deep in the territory, it would be the most appropriate place to kill Ying Xuanze."

"The Yinglong Army is under my command. One of the two generals leading the army is my son, and the other is my retainer."

"If they don't tell us, who will know how the Marquis of Zhenxi died? Or if they blame the Northern Hu people for the Marquis' death, Li Yong and the others will just stare blankly, with nowhere to vent their anger."

Huang Chan sneered a few times and continued, "Once Ying Xuanze and his men are dead, the Ying family will have no one to rely on. It will be easy to destroy them."

"After the Ying family is completely destroyed, what kind of trouble can this old man Li Yong cause? I think if the Grand Marshal had not been worried about those old guys being important officials in the court, he would have already..."

Huang Chan did not finish his speech. Some things did not need to be finished, and everyone understood them.

Wang Yi smiled faintly: "Huang Chan, Huang Chan, do you know why the Queen Mother and I chose you to be the general?"

Huang Chan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Huang Chan doesn't know."

"Among all the ministers in the court, you are the only one who is loyal to our Wang family. If you don't become the general, who will?"

Wang Yi gently patted Huang Chan's shoulder and said, "Don't pay too much attention to my sister's thoughts. Although she is the queen mother, she was able to become the queen thanks to me as her brother."

Huang Chan was secretly surprised, but he suppressed his emotions and said in a serious voice:

"Don't worry, Sima. From now on, I will only obey you! I will serve you until my death!"

Wang Yi laughed loudly: "Great! That depends on your performance, General Huang."

After saying this, Wang Yi led the guards out of the pavilion, leaving Huang Chan alone to bow and watch the Grand Marshal leave.
