Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 919 Black Face

In Princess Danyang's mansion, Princess Danyang couldn't help being stunned when she heard the servant's report. The candidates for the expedition had already been decided, but there was no Xue Wanche's name.

"No mistake, right?" Princess Danyang asked in disbelief.

"I'm not mistaken, the son-in-law did not accompany him on the expedition, and if the son-in-law accompanied him on the expedition, people from the Ministry of War would have come to our house by now!"

"Why? How is it possible? Duke Rong has already agreed to help, so how could the son-in-law not accompany him on the expedition?" Princess Danyang asked with disbelief.

Ever since she got married, she has looked down on Xue Wanche, the son-in-law, because this son-in-law is not only not handsome, but also clumsy, has no sense of taste, and is not appreciated by His Majesty.

But, unexpectedly, Xue Wanche was able to be appreciated by Su Cheng. Ever since he hooked up with Su Cheng, Princess Danyang felt that her fortune had changed.

She is indispensable for the perfumes, fragrances and other novelties in Sujiazhuang, and Xue Wanche was also able to lead the army and show off.

This gave her a lot of face among the princesses and ladies in Chang'an.

This time, His Majesty's personal expedition, can you accompany the expedition to see what it is?

What you see is the holy family!

If Xue Wanche couldn't accompany her to the expedition, then she would lose face in Chang'an!

Xue Wanche scratched his head, and said with a sad face: "I didn't expect that the matter of the expedition would be settled so soon. Duke Rong probably didn't even have time to enter the palace!"

After finishing speaking, Xue Wanche pulled his hair vigorously, and said very puzzled: "It shouldn't be, Your Majesty has just decided to go to the imperial conquest, why did you decide on the candidate so quickly?"

"Brother Huang is wise and mighty, the matter of the expedition is still not settled with one word? What are you thinking about? What should you do now that you can't go to the expedition? Do you want to ask Duke Rong again?" Princess Danyang said angrily.

How could she have the time to care about how the emperor decided on the candidate for the expedition so quickly, she just wanted to know whether Xue Wanche could still accompany him on the expedition.

Xue Wanche hesitated and said: "This is not good, Duke Rong has already agreed to help, how can we beg again?"

"If Duke Rong can't do anything about it, if we go to beg again, won't Duke Rong be embarrassed?"

Princess Danyang muttered: "Maybe he didn't try his best. If he is determined to ask you to go to war, how can the emperor beat him?"

Just when Princess Danyang was unwilling, the steward hurried over and said happily, "Princess, son-in-law, there are people from the Ministry of War here. The son-in-law leads the cavalry battalion of Shenji Battalion and goes out with Duke Rong."

"Leading the cavalry battalion of the Shenji Battalion?" Princess Danyang asked suspiciously.

Xue Wanche couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and said with a grin: "Since the candidate for the expedition has been decided, Duke Rong is not easy to get rid of anyone. It is really rare for me to go to the expedition with Shenjiying!"

"Your Majesty has always attached great importance to the Shenji Battalion. The Shenji Battalion must have a lot to do on the battlefield. Since I lead the cavalry battalion, I will do my best to help the Duke of the Kingdom to make contributions!"

Princess Danyang was somewhat disappointed when she first heard that Xue Wanche only led a battalion of cavalry, but after thinking about it later, Xue Wanche was leading cavalry from the Shenji Battalion, and he was considered Duke Rong's lieutenant general, so she would not be ashamed to say so.

What made her even more satisfied was that Xue Wanche's role as Duke Rong's deputy would deepen her relationship with Duke Rong, which was something no one else could ask for.

Princess Danyang suddenly turned her worry into joy, and said with a smile: "What the son-in-law said is that the Duke has spent a lot of effort in order to let the son-in-law go to war, the son-in-law must not disappoint the Duke!"

Xue Wanche said confidently: "Danyang, don't worry, when it comes to riding skills, who am I, Xue Wanche, afraid of? As long as you pick up your gun and mount your horse, no matter how many people come, you will kill them all!"

Xue Wanche has always been a little lacking in confidence in front of Princess Danyang, but at this moment when it comes to riding a horse to fight, Xue Wanche's back is straight, and his sturdy body exudes the majesty of a warrior on the battlefield.

For a while, Princess Danyang was also moved by Xue Wanche's aura. Although Xue Wanche was not handsome and had no literary talents, it was not without merits. This moment was still very masculine.

However, Princess Danyang still spat: "When you go to bed with a gun, you have the ability to carry a gun and mount a horse?"

Xue Wanche couldn't help but blushed when he heard this, and he was speechless.

After listening to Li Shimin's emotion, Su Cheng finally found a chance to resign and walked away from the palace.

At the gate of the palace, Silla Princess Jin Shengman and Zhengshi Jin Wenzhi are waiting to enter the palace.

Jin Shengman's eyes lit up when he saw Su Cheng, and Pingting gracefully stepped forward with a deep blessing: "I have seen the Duke, the Duke's kindness to us in Silla is as great as a mountain, and we are going to the Sujiazhuang to pay homage to the country. Where's the man!"

Su Cheng quickly waved his hand and said, "What kindness is as heavy as a mountain, it's serious."

Jin Shengman said gratefully: "If it wasn't for the Duke, His Majesty might not have ordered the expedition. If it wasn't for the Duke, His Majesty might not have personally marched. The Duke's great kindness..."

Before Jin Shengman finished speaking, Su Cheng's face turned dark. What does this mean?

It was Li Shimin who wanted to go east even in his dreams, and it was Li Shimin who insisted on conquering himself, so what does it have to do with him, Su Cheng?

This is a big misunderstanding!

And Jin Shengman still said it in front of the palace gate, there are many people here, if this gets to the ears of the speaker, then when he returns from the expedition, he will not be drowned by the speaker's spittle?

Su Cheng quickly waved his hand and said: "Nothing, nothing, the princess misunderstood, it has nothing to do with me!"

modesty!too humble!

He obviously deserves great credit, but he is as calm as the wind and clouds. Is there anyone else in this world who is such a humble gentleman?

Jin Shengman said with a smile: "Why should the Duke be humble, the Duke's kindness..."

Jin Wenzhi quickly interrupted the conversation, and said with a smile: "The Duke of the State is also driving with him to the expedition, I wish the Duke of the State a great success and victory!"

Su Cheng smiled and nodded, quickly changed the subject and asked, "Are you going back to Silla?"

Jin Wenzhi said with a smile: "We can't help much when we return to Silla, so the princess decided to enter the palace and ask His Majesty to allow us to go out with His Majesty!"

Su Cheng couldn't help nodding when he heard this. For the envoys of Silla, the best choice is indeed to march eastward with the Tang army, so that they can know the battle between Datang and Silla at any time.

If you encounter situations such as the withdrawal of troops from the Tang Dynasty or the stagnation of the troops, you can adapt to the situation.

However, Su Cheng felt that it didn't matter. After all, the purpose of Li Shimin's Eastern Expedition was not just to win a battle.

Li Shimin's ambition is great.

Su Cheng said with a smile: "It's still not safe for you to go back to Silla by sea. It's indeed safer to go with the army. I think His Majesty will agree."

Jin Wenzhi said respectfully: "Grand Tuo Guoji said auspicious words!"
