My best friend is wearing a double body! Marry the emperor! Help me win the throne

Murong Che didn't expect Murong Nan to volunteer.

Although Murong Nan is married, in his eyes she is still a child who has not grown up.

He was naturally worried about letting Murong Nan lead the troops to the border alone. He glanced at the rows of generals and asked again, "Is there anyone else willing to go to the border?"

Some generals followed Yu Hongyi to the southern border, and some generals followed Xue Wuji and Yu Minyan to the northern border. Among those standing in the court now, several generals with military merits and prestige are already old.

The climate in the northeastern border is harsh, and water freezes into ice in winter. The older generation of generals are not suitable to go to the northeastern border.

"emperor!"

Without waiting for the other generals to reply, Murong Nan spoke again, "I have been familiar with military books since I was young. Although I have never been to the battlefield, I have had experience in the East Camp. I am confident that I can drive out the Japanese! Your Majesty, please give me a chance to atone for my sins! I want to capture Murong Ye myself!"

In Murong Nan's opinion, when Murong Ye forced the emperor to abdicate and rebel, it was because of his dereliction of duty that he let Murong Ye escape.

Now that Murong Ye has colluded with the Japanese and completely betrayed Jiuzhou, he has the responsibility to bring back his second brother who has gone astray!

Murong Che didn't want him to take any risks, so he glanced at him and asked again, "Are there any others..."

Seeing that he ignored her request, Murong Nan raised her voice again and repeated what she had just said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to go to the border! Please give me a chance and let my merits atone for my sins!"

Murong Che looked at his determined eyes, his brows furrowed even tighter. "King Kang! Marching and fighting is no joke. Every decision a general makes not only affects the outcome of the battle, but also the lives of the soldiers themselves! Are you sure you can handle this?"

Even the wisest and bravest general will grow old one day. Only when there are successors can a country continue to prosper.

Murong Nan had the idea of ​​leading troops to fight, so Murong Che was of course willing to train his only brother and give all young generals some opportunities.

Once they are able to shoulder the heavy responsibilities, old generals like Yu Hongyi can retire to the rear, enjoy their grandchildren and live out their days in peace.

Murong Nan took a deep breath, "I am willing to give it a try! I will capture Murong Ye even if it costs me my life!"

Murong Che looked at the impulsive Murong Nan and shook his head. "Prince Kang, you don't understand what I mean. Go back and think carefully about what is most important to a general. If you can give me a satisfactory answer tomorrow, I will allow you to lead the army to the northeastern border to suppress the Japanese villains!"

……

After the court session, Murong Nan went to the Cining Palace to find Chu Xinyue and took her out of the palace and back home.

On the way back in the carriage, Chu Xinyue saw Murong Nan looking worried and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Are you worried?"

Murong Nan didn't hide it from her and told her about his plan to go to the border to fight against the Japanese and capture Murong Ye. "But my royal brother doesn't want me to go. He also said that if I can't give him a satisfactory answer tomorrow, he won't agree to let me lead the troops to the border."

Chu Xinyue listened to him patiently and said with a curled lip, "Don't say that the emperor doesn't agree. After listening to what you just said, I don't agree with you going either!"

"why?"

Murong Nan stared at her with his clear and handsome eyes, his eyes full of confusion.

Chu Xinyue replied, "As a general, besides winning battles, it's more important to protect every soldier under your command. You keep saying you're willing to risk your life to capture Murong Ye. But if you were dead, what would happen to the thousands of soldiers who followed you to the border?"

Once you go to the battlefield, you will be surrounded by mountains of corpses and seas of blood. If you are not careful, you will die without a burial place.

Whose son is not raised with great care and effort?

If everyone's lives are handed over to a general who only wants to fight to the death, who can guarantee their safety?

Murong Nan was left speechless by Chu Xinyue's question.

Yes, he was only thinking about making up for his mistake of letting Murong Ye escape, but he forgot what was most important as a general.

No wonder the emperor did not agree to let him go to the border in the court.

Murong Nan was silent, thinking carefully about what Chu Xinyue said, and then he felt as if he had suddenly been enlightened.

He hugged Chu Xinyue tightly, his eyes full of excitement, "Ayue, thank you! I know how to answer my brother's questions tomorrow!"

Seeing him clinging to her like an octopus, Chu Xinyue groaned in disgust and tried to push him away, "Are you crying? Don't get your snot and tears on me! Get away from me!"

"I won't! I won't!"

Murong Nan held her waist tightly with both hands and rested his chin on her shoulder. "Ayue, I'm going to the border. Will you support me?"

"Of course!"

Chu Xinyue didn't hesitate for a moment and gave him a positive answer.

Murong Nan didn't expect her to answer so readily. He was stunned for a moment before asking softly, "Why?"

"It's normal for a man to want to defend his country. As a prince, you enjoy the honor and favor that your status brings you, but you should also shoulder the responsibility of protecting the common people."

Murong Nan used to think that Chu Xinyue was a princess spoiled by the Queen Mother. It was not until he came into contact with her that he gradually realized that Chu Xinyue was completely different from the willful and capricious princess he had imagined.

At this moment, he looked deeply into Chu Xinyue's eyes and said word by word, "Ayue, thank you! I know how to reply to my brother tomorrow!"

He was so focused on making up for his mistakes that he forgot his duties as a general.

The people don't ask for much. They have done their best to live in peace.

If he were a general, he would have to maintain peace and stabilize the morale of the troops!

Chu Xinyue looked at his suddenly enlightened expression and raised the corners of her lips slightly, "Murong Nan, I'll accompany you to court tomorrow!"

……

The next day, early in the morning.

Xuanzheng Hall.

Murong Che was wearing a bright yellow dragon robe and sitting upright on the dragon throne.

After the ministers had their audience, Murong Che glanced at the civil and military officials standing on both sides of the hall, and finally fixed his gaze on Murong Nan. "Prince Kang, have you thought of the answer to yesterday's question?"

Murong Nan stepped out immediately after his name was called. "Your Majesty rejected my request yesterday, and I am sincerely convinced. As the saying goes, it's easy to get a thousand soldiers, but it's hard to find a general. The borders of Jiuzhou are in turmoil right now, and we need a commander who is resourceful and capable of leading the overall situation. I know my abilities are limited, so I am willing to serve as a deputy general."

At this point, he glanced behind him and continued, "I boldly recommend Princess Qinghe, daughter of the late Prince Pingyang, as commander-in-chief to lead the three armies and fight against Jiang Yuanshan!"

When he recommended Chu Xinyue, he did not mention her identity as Princess Kang, but only said that she was the daughter of the late God of War Chu Jinghan.

As soon as these words were spoken, all the civil and military officials in the court looked behind Murong Nan in shock, and only then did they realize that Chu Xinyue was standing among the generals in military uniform.

After being called by Murong Nan, Chu Xinyue strode out of the group, walked to a position shoulder to shoulder with Murong Nan, and knelt on one knee, "Your Majesty, your servant Chu Xinyue is willing to lead the troops to the Northern Frontier and recapture it!"

Her father had once made the soldiers of the surrounding small countries tremble in fear. He was also the general most admired by all the soldiers and the only king of a different surname who was canonized by the previous emperor.

Everyone looked at Chu Xinyue in military uniform, and in a trance, they seemed to see the war god prince who was wearing black iron armor and created an immortal legend!

Murong Che did not expect that Chu Xinyue would stand in front of him and volunteer to fight in order to support Murong Nan.

"Princess Qinghe, there has never been a precedent for a woman to lead a general in Jiuzhou. How can you convince me and the civil and military officials to hand over tens of thousands of Jiuzhou soldiers to you and your wife?"

"When my father was alive, he once told my mother that he fought on the battlefield for two reasons: to uphold his original aspirations for the people and to fulfill his ambitions for the country! I am willing to carry on my father's legacy and drive the Japanese barbarians out of our territory!"

Chu Xinyue spoke in a loud voice, and every word she answered was sonorous and powerful.

Murong Nan spoke again, "Brother Emperor, I've figured it out. The soldiers of Jiuzhou all have parents and brothers, and some have already started families with wives and children. Since I've requested to be your deputy general, besides capturing the rebels, my more important mission is to assist the commander-in-chief in protecting the men of Jiuzhou, so that they can return safely and reunite with their families!"

Most of the generals present took Chu Jinghan as their role model, and many of them had even fought alongside Chu Jinghan.

After hearing Chu Xinyue's words, a general immediately stepped forward and said, "I am willing to follow Princess Qinghe and drive out the Japanese barbarians together!"

"The same goes for me!"

"The same goes for me!"

In the court, many generals were ordered to follow Chu Jinghan in his campaigns during the reign of the previous emperor, and they were promoted to their current positions based on their military exploits.

If they are taken individually, they can all stand on their own.

Now, seeing Murong Nan and his wife asking for orders to go into battle, he was deeply moved.

The memory of fighting side by side with Chu Jinghan on the battlefield made the long-dormant blood in their bodies boil again.

The peace and prosperity they have enjoyed in these years are all due to Chu Jinghan's fighting with swords and arrows while guarding the border.

After Murong Ye failed in forcing the emperor to abdicate and escaped from Jiuzhou, he attempted to provoke a war between the surrounding countries and Jiuzhou.

He could take advantage of the situation and reap the benefits.

Just as the generals were expressing their opinions, after Tang Renyi fell, the newly appointed censor took two steps forward and spoke righteously, "Your Majesty, Princess Qinghe is a woman. I'm afraid no one would believe her in commanding the three armies!"

The Minister of Rites and the Minister of Revenue nearby also echoed, "I also think that the princess is a woman, and it is inappropriate to appoint her as a commander just because of her father's merits!"

"Your Majesty, the most important thing in a war is to stabilize the morale of the troops! Once the morale of the troops is shaken, they will be defeated like scattered sand! Princess Qinghe is still young and may not be able to take on this important task!"

As soon as they finished speaking, many civil servants seconded their opinion.

In the eyes of the world, a woman should do her duty after getting married and take care of her husband and children. Even though Chu Xinyue is Chu Jinghan's daughter, she cannot enjoy any privileges.

At this moment, an official who had once been a member of the Xianwang Party stood up and snorted sarcastically, "Prince Kang is the Emperor's brother, and Princess Qinghe is the Emperor's consort. If Princess Qinghe is allowed to lead the three armies, people will inevitably accuse the Emperor of nepotism! Please reconsider, Your Majesty!"

Seeing the other party's sharp confrontation, Chu Xinyue turned her head and looked at him and replied, "You are a censor, don't you know the principle of promoting the virtuous and not avoiding relatives? I dare to recommend myself this time, and it's not an impulse! I have received accurate information. This time Murong Ye surrendered to Japan. The Japanese king not only lent him 80,000 troops, but the Iga clan also sent their most elite ninja to help him!"

Having said this, she looked around and said loudly, "I have a way to deal with ninjas. I can guarantee that during my tenure as commander-in-chief, no soldier will die at the hands of a ninja! I can issue a military order in front of you all in the court! Of course, the position of commander-in-chief has always been for the most capable. If someone is more capable than me, I can also step down and let him take over!"

She has her best friend Xue Youli as her military advisor, so she is very confident. Who here dares to speak as harshly as she does?
