Chapter 123: Expedition



The rest of the words were not finished, but the meaning was very clear.

"I am willing to lead the troops!"

Shen Jiarui knelt down and volunteered to go to the battle.

The emperor smiled helplessly and said, "I plan to send you to Fengchun, a place you are very familiar with."

In spring, they were not far from the Hudi tribe and had a lot of food and grass stored there.

If the Hudi tribe really joins forces with Beihuang to attack Tianqi, Fengchun will surely be in dire straits.

Fengchun needs people, Qiongzhou also needs people, so...

Shen Jiayan quickly stood up and knelt down. "I have studied military books and practiced martial arts diligently to protect my country. If you only have skills but don't take responsibility, what kind of man are you? The barbarians of the Northern Wilderness dare to act so arrogantly. I will make them know the power of our Tianqi and make them bow down to me!"

The emperor stepped forward and personally helped the two men up. "I believe in your strength. When you return triumphantly, we will get drunk together."

Shen Jiayan said: "I will definitely fulfill my mission!"

Shen Jiarui, however, looked worried.

After pondering for a while, he couldn't help but speak: "Your Majesty, although my younger sister is a noble concubine, she is still stubborn and speaks bluntly. Others don't understand her and may conflict with her. I hope you can forgive me. This... Ouch!"

Before Shen Jiarui could finish his words, Shen Jiayan pinched him.

He subconsciously turned his head and glared at Shen Jiayan in dissatisfaction: "Why are you pinching me? You can't even say that?"

The tone was very aggrieved.

Shen Mingyue is the treasure he holds in his hands and his most precious sister.

When he was very young, a rich kid once scolded Shen Mingyue for her hot temper and that she would never get married. Without saying a word, he punched the kid and knocked out all his front teeth.

After that, no one dared to judge Shen Mingyue casually, and no one dared to bully her.

But when they grow up, they have no control over many things.

He fought on the battlefield and was stationed in the frontier. Shen Mingyue entered the palace as a concubine, competing with the concubines in wits and courage, and was deliberately made difficult by the Queen Mother.

Even the people knew that the Empress Dowager disliked Concubine Ming, so one can imagine what his sister had experienced.

Although the eldest princess has married into the Shen family, the Queen Mother's attitude towards the Shen family has also changed. But...

What if the Queen Mother suddenly gets angry and starts to attack the Shen family? Then Mingyue's life will probably become difficult again.

Thinking about those things, Shen Jiarui felt even more sad.

"Don't worry, I know everything. I will protect Mingyue and never let her suffer any injustice again."

The emperor patted Shen Jiarui on the shoulder.

He sighed again, "Time is running out. You should go back early to reunite with your families and say goodbye. I will see you off at the north gate of the capital at noon the day after tomorrow."
