However, at this moment, Situ Yao spoke up: "Will the old general regret this?"
What he meant was to ask General Cheng Yi, who was already old, if he would regret it if he shed his blood on the battlefield and could never come back.
However, Chen Yi said: "As a soldier, I shed my blood and my head. I only wish to use every bit of my strength on the battlefield to defend my country. Even if I cannot return, I will not regret it. As long as I can protect the safety of my country, death is nothing."
His words instantly made the blood of the generals present boil. If they had not been controlled by reason, they would probably have volunteered to go and pacify Tubo.
After hearing Chen Yi's words, Situ Yao stopped trying to persuade him. He was the king of a country. Promises were important, but if he handed over his kingdom to others, then the promise would naturally be worthless.
Now he had no choice but to abandon the promise he had made to Chen Yalan and choose to let Chen Yi and Lao Zhang's army go back to the battlefield.
"Since the old general has said so, then this battle will be handed over to you. I hope you will not let me down." Situ Yao looked at Chen Yi and said.
However, at this moment, a female voice suddenly rang out: "No, Your Majesty, my father is too old to fight on the battlefield. I beg Your Majesty to revoke your order."
The person who came was Chen Yalan. It turned out that Chen Yalan was very disappointed that she did not wait for Fu Liu. Then she heard people talking about General Dingfeng being trapped by the enemy and his life or death was unknown. She immediately thought about whether the emperor would send her father to fight the enemy, so she thought of coming here to listen. If the emperor had no such plan, then she would leave. If the emperor had such a plan, she would stand up and argue for her father.
As a result, she didn't expect that the emperor really had his eyes on her father. When she heard that her father was willing to lead the troops to war and that the emperor had given him this responsibility, Chen Yalan couldn't help but walked out directly.
She and her father have been very close since they were young. Even though some people say that boys and girls should not sit together after the age of seven, she and her father have been playing with swords and guns since they were young. Her father has never treated her as a girl. The relationship between the two is deep. Seeing her father's old expression at this time, how could she bear to let her father go to the battlefield.
Chen Yalan's sudden appearance surprised everyone. No one expected that a woman would appear in the court.
"What's going on?"
"This seems to be General Chen's daughter."
"The harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs. How did this woman come out?"
In an instant, all kinds of discussions came one after another.
Even Situ Yao did not expect Chen Yalan to suddenly appear, and not give him face in the court, and directly reject him.
"Chen Yalan, what are you doing? It is imperative to pacify Tubo, and your father is willing to lead the troops to fight. What are you doing here?" Situ Yao asked.
"Yalan, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. Your father will handle this matter. You can go back without worry." General Chen Yi could only persuade her as he looked at his daughter who was protecting him.
This is his daughter, he raised her up, how could he not know her temper? But Chen Yalan is a daughter after all. If it was a boy, Chen Yi could let her say a few words here without worry, but there is a saying that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, so Chen Yi had to let her leave quickly.
Just as her father understood her, Chen Yalan also understood her father very well. She knew that her father was afraid that she would get into trouble here. However, Chen Yalan thought that if her father went to the battlefield, he might die. Compared with her father's death, what could be more terrifying?
Thinking of this, Chen Yalan made up her mind that she would never leave. At the same time, she knew her father well and would not change his mind once it was decided.
But……
"Your Majesty, since my father is old, I am willing to go to war on his behalf to pacify Tubo." Chen Yalan said in a sonorous and powerful voice.
"What? Going to war in your father's place?"
"Oh my god, who on earth is this Chen Da Ying? She actually wants to go to war in her father's place."
"You know, swords and knives are merciless on the battlefield. How can a weak woman fight on the battlefield?"
As soon as Chen Yalan finished speaking, everything happened just as he had expected. In the court, there was a flurry of discussion, and everyone was questioning Chen Yalan's ability.
Even Situ Yao was an exception, but he realized in an instant that he couldn't let Chen Yalan talk nonsense here.
"That's enough, Chen promised. What's so bold of you to talk nonsense here? Someone, subdue her for me."
Situ Yao had no choice but to force Chen Yalan to suppress her. Otherwise, if this continued, who knows what kind of outrageous things Chen Yalan would say.
After all, she was well-trained. Two eunuchs came up and wanted to push Chen Yalan down. Chen Yalan was very stubborn and didn't want to leave. Before, she was afraid of Situ Yao and didn't dare to make any moves. But now, compared with her father's life, these were nothing.
Seeing that Chen Yalan was about to resist and attack the eunuch, how could Chen Yi, her father, not see it? He immediately said, "Yalan, the emperor is here, don't be rude."
What he meant was that the emperor was still here, so you had to be polite and not take action here, otherwise, you would be criticized.
After understanding what her father meant, Chen Yalan had no choice but to calm down and watch as the two eunuchs took her away.
Meanwhile, Fu Liu was horrified at the news. How could this happen? He didn't know if Chen Yalan was alright. Without time to think too much, he turned and headed towards her. At the same time, he regretted not going to the appointment today. If he had gone, how could this have happened to Chen Yalan?
With regret and concern, Fu Liu came to Chen Yalan. After seeing Chen Yalan, Fu Liu's heart was reluctantly put back into his stomach.
Fortunately, nothing happened to Chen Yalan, otherwise, I would have regretted it. However, now Chen Yalan is still clamoring to go to the battlefield for her father.
Situ Yao sent people to watch outside to prevent Chen Yalan from running away, but those people did not stop Fu Liu.
After Fu Liu entered, he immediately saw Chen Yalan with a gloomy face and a very unhappy look. Fu Liu's appearance made Chen Yalan's face relax a little, but the next second, it became firm again.
"Sister Chen, why are you doing this?" Fu Liu walked forward, put his hand on Chen Yalan's shoulder, and sighed.
However, Chen Yalan just looked at Fu Liu, shook her head and said, "You don't understand. My father is already so old. I can't watch him die. The battlefield is ruthless, and there are countless elite soldiers and generals. It's not a place where an old general like my father can go."
