The Yan Dynasty is full of talented people, so there is no need to worry about not having anyone available.

"Who does the Queen want to recommend?"

"There are many brave and skilled generals in the court. Anyone can fight in the frontier area. Why do you need me to recommend someone?"

Su Rong walked forward and smiled faintly.

Yan Chu didn't understand. If he wasn't a recommender, then why did he come?

"I just feel that you have been on the throne for some time, and the important officials in the court have been there since my father was in power. Although they are experienced, they are all old. Although they have experience, their methods and ideas are old-fashioned and pedantic."

She said it so directly.

Yan Chu subconsciously looked at the three concubines who were painting with their heads down.

"so what?"

As expected, she has ideas.

But he didn't expect that she would speak so directly, without worrying about too many ears and eyes.

"Why not take advantage of this opportunity to attack the frontier and set up a competition arena in the Yingwu Palace and find ten brave and skilled generals to defend the competition. There will be three levels in total. If you can pass each level and defeat these ten generals, you will be appointed as the Grand Marshal of the Army and lead the army to attack the frontier."

"How long will that take?"

Yan Chu frowned, not thinking this method was very good.

"The troops should go first. Besides, the Grand Marshal selected through this method may not have actual combat experience. The Emperor can choose someone he trusts to serve as the Deputy Marshal."

But Su Rong had been prepared and had a perfect plan.

"It will be no later than seven or eight days. This time, the talent selection... no, the selection of military commanders, is for the sons of famous families in Kyoto. There are many talented people among the younger generation, and I believe that someone will stand out among them."

"Even if it doesn't happen in the end, the emperor can still directly appoint the deputy commander as the grand marshal, which won't delay the plan to attack the outside of the Great Wall."

After Yan Chu heard this, he was silent for a while.

"Since we are selecting from the sons of Kyoto, Queen, you might as well tell me who you want to recommend. If he is really capable of commanding the three armies, I will appoint him as the Grand Marshal. I am willing to give the person you recommend a try."

Maybe they're not emotionally involved.

But he trusted Su Rong's abilities.

Looking at his determined and focused eyes, she hesitated for a moment.

If he promises this, he will definitely be able to do it.

But what kind of person would she be if that happened? She abused her power, and her brothers would become relatives in the future.

Relying on her status to rise to power? How will she convince others in the future?

Besides, who knows how capable Su Zheng is? She also wants to take this opportunity to see how capable he is.

"Really not."

"But if Your Majesty trusts me, when the competition begins, if I really meet someone amazing, I would like to recommend him."

She still rejected Yan Chu's proposal.

"it is good."

Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of him, Yan Chu agreed.

Then we can take advantage of this incident outside the Great Wall to select new talents.

He is making preparations for both scenarios.

The next day.

The emperor issued an edict to select the Grand Marshal from among the young men in Kyoto.

As soon as the news got out, anyone who practiced martial arts and had status could no longer sit still.

They immediately left the house and went around verifying the authenticity of the news, or perhaps there were some hidden conditions in the edict that they did not understand and needed to be studied carefully.

Throughout the whole day, all the major restaurants and teahouses in Kyoto were bustling with activity.

In the palace, after learning the whole story, Concubine Yue became extremely excited and could not calm down for a long time.

"He's crazy, really crazy."

In the hall, she paced back and forth, her cheeks gradually turning red.

But the palace servants were confused. They looked at each other but did not dare to say anything.

Slowly, Toffee Yue gradually calmed down.

"Go and make the arrangements. I am leaving the palace, and no one can know about it."

She gritted her teeth and made a major decision.

"My queen, if you want to return to your mother's family, considering the emperor's love for you..."

"No, I have something else to do."

Nanny Su was a little surprised.

Weren't you despising the Queen's sneakiness not long ago?

How come it's so...

What a big deal it is that needs to be hidden like this?

As far as she could remember, the Toffee had never done anything so stupid.

When I turned around, Concubine Yue had already left the palace and made an appointment to meet Su Yan.

As soon as we met, she raised her hand angrily and was about to hit me.

But Su Yan grabbed her hand with one hand, and no matter how hard she tried, he didn't let go, and even held it tighter.

He didn't let go until her wrist was shaking with pain and tears were streaming down her face.

"The pain will calm you down."

His face was calm, and there was even a hint of a smile on his face, as if he was saying shamelessly, I'm doing this for your own good.

The more the concubine grew annoyed with him.

Some people become more annoying the longer they live.

So why was she shedding tears? She shouldn't have reacted like this in front of this scum, even if it hurt her to death.

"You're doing your thing, why do you want to involve him?"

She knew that the man in front of her would not allow her to vent her temper. He was not the emperor and would not tolerate her at all.

Concubine Yue calmed down.

I'm here to call for justice, not to lose my temper.

"Why not? He will inherit my legacy in the future."

"you……"

"We all rise and fall together, so don't be willful, okay?"

Su Yan didn't listen to what she said, and said with a somewhat impatient look.

"Even if you hate me, Zheng'er, you owe him. Now he wants to go to war and make achievements. You made him a servant's son for twenty years. Now, you should compensate him and let him get what he wants."

"So, it's still my fault?"

Concubine Yue asked with some disbelief.

"Is not it?"

His rhetorical question.

This made Concubine Yue unable to say a word to blame him.

What on earth was she thinking? She actually thought she could convince him after she got out and let it go?

It was really impulsive.

Her face turned cold and she didn't want to say more.

"In the palace, you should cooperate more with the Queen."

Concubine Yue looked at him coldly, with a hint of sneer on her lips.

"Why do you?"

There was no way she would listen to a word he said.

But as soon as he finished speaking, the door suddenly opened.

A person she didn't expect, who shouldn't be here and couldn't be here, suddenly came.

In an instant, her thoughts were in a mess.

Su Zheng walked closer step by step and came in front of Concubine Yue.

"I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Concubine."

This was not the first time he had met Concubine Yue.

Whenever she returned to Yue Prefecture, he could always see her from afar.

Seeing that he looked normal and showed no emotion at all, Concubine Yue became panicked.

It wouldn't be a coincidence that he was here.

So how could Su Yan, this madman, be so shameless?

"Zheng'er, tell Concubine Yue whether you want to go to the battle or not?"

She was unwilling to cooperate with Su Yan.

However, facing the son she had never known, Concubine Yue could not think of rejecting him.

In Kunning Palace.

Concubine Wan came over on her own initiative.

This was her first visit since she gained favor.

Holding the pipa that they played when they first met in the Imperial Garden that night.

"My Lady, I remember that you like the pipa."

She smiled and stated her purpose.
