"Brother Lao's news is indeed well-versed. Just now, I got the news that the Kamans had assembled 200,000 troops and surrounded Jiayuguan. There were nearly 100,000 troops heading towards Taixuan Prefecture. The north of the Principality of the Trilogy was also fiercely fighting. It seems that this war would not be over in three to five months." Wufeng did not directly answer Lao Min's question, but calmly told the news that he had obtained.

"What? The Kamans attacked Taixuan Mansion and Jiayuguan?" Lao Min's surprise was not pretending. The news he received was that the situation in the northwest was chaotic. The old nobles of the Imperial Advisory Council were trapped there and could not escape, and it caused a mutiny of the local Gaoyue barbarians. The local local government was ineffective in dealing with it, and the situation became increasingly tense. Many nobles in the imperial capital had rushed to Yuhang to ask His Majesty the Emperor to let Li Wufeng return to the northwest to stabilize the overall situation and rescue the nobles. Therefore, he guessed that he did not expect that there was another big problem with Taixuan Mansion in just two days.

"Well, the situation is getting worse now. I see that Taixuan Mansion is a little troublesome." Wufeng replied calmly, "This time, the Kamans probably made up their minds to take Taixuan Mansion."

Wufeng's relaxed tone made Lao Min a little confused. Could it be that this guy really doesn't want to go back to the northwest? Could it be that the chaotic situation in the northwest wasn't this guy's own compilation and acting?

He calmed down and then said with a smile: "The Kaman people have long wanted to make Taixuan's idea, especially Jiayuguan. I'm afraid every generation of people in power will dream of it. However, Jiayuguan has sufficient soldiers and food, and has dangerous support. What has the Kaman people succeeded in the past few hundred years? However, once Taixuan Mansion is lost, it will endanger the long-term defensive situation of Jiayuguan, and we must prepare early."

Wufeng was indeed a little impressed by these noble children. No matter what, at least they were unmatched in talking about war on paper, and the words of the people who were tired of the people were indeed very reasonable. At this time, he had to admit that the words of the people who were tired of the people were experiencing, at least he couldn't see anything at the moment.

"It seems that Brother Li will be back to the northwest soon. Today I will treat it as a farewell to Brother Li. Come on, let's wish Brother Li will succeed and get rid of the siege of Taixuan Mansion and celebrate again. Come on, let's do this!" Wufeng felt the words of Laomin touched. If it weren't for the use of the Kaman people, it might be a bit difficult for him to go back to the northwest. Now I'm just waiting for the emperor's imperial order. It should be here in these two days.

"Thank you, Brother Lao, for your words. This war is hard to say. The Kamans are coming in full force, with hundreds of thousands of troops! It is enough to sweep the Gerok. If there were no reinforcements from the Empire, Gerok would have been unable to hold on." Wu Feng smiled bitterly, making people unable to see whether he was true or false.

On a summer night, the Zhoushan Islands are breeze blowing, and the stars in the sky are shining on the sea under the night sky. The waves gently hit the shore, causing splashes of water, and everything seems so quiet and peaceful. When stepping on the soft mud and sand on the beach, the entire island seems to be a whole integrated with the sky, without a gap.

He Zhiqiu seemed particularly calm when he followed His Majesty the Emperor who was silently bowing his head.

Li Wufeng's problem has troubled him for a long time, but he repeatedly thought that the current situation has far exceeded the scope that the central government can control. Lu Wenfu told him that the situation in the north and Kansai was so terrifying that the situation had become so bad, but the local governments of these counties were ignorant. No, it is still difficult to determine whether it was ignorant or intentionally deceived the superiors and subordinates. But what is certain is that many officials of the court must have been involved, otherwise it would not have been possible to develop to such a level.

Now, due to the large-scale invasion of the Principality of the Jeroke, two divisions of the Northern Military Region and the Western Military Region, which were originally intended to prevent the invasion of the Kamans, were dragged in. It seems that they cannot be drawn out for a while. The troops of the two counties stationed in the Western Military Region have reached an extremely empty level. If there is any slight disturbance, it may cause a tsunami like a landslide and tsunami. The Kamans chose to send troops at this time and really got stuck in the pulse of the empire and were acting.

The two walked out silently for several miles, but they didn't say anything, and each had an unspeakable difficulty in their hearts.

"Love, do you see if the Kamans' actions have any other intentions?" Situ Mingyue's voice seemed a little floating on the empty beach.

Awakened from the meditation, He Zhiqiu sorted out his thoughts and replied concisely: "It is still difficult to confirm at present. Jiayuguan is like a deep thorn in their throats, making it difficult for them to boldly implement their plans to go south. As long as Jiayuguan is not lost for a day, the Kaman and the Sisro people will never sleep. But this time, this time, this is the first time in nearly a hundred years of history. I believe they have made up their minds to open this passage."

After thinking carefully, He Zhiqiu continued the conversation: "However, I have never believed it. Are the Kamans really sure to take Jiayuguan in one fell swoop? Or are they really going to conquer Taixuan Mansion and relying on a long period of siege to force Jiayuguan to fall on their own due to supplies? These two plans have insurmountable obstacles for them. To conquer Jiayuguan, it is definitely not just about the number of soldiers or advanced siege equipment. The empire has spent hundreds of years on it.

Accumulating and creating this fortress without falling, even if the Kamans have ten times the strength of their troops, it will be difficult to succeed. Siege? Not to mention whether they can take the Taixuan Mansion. Even if they occupy the Taixuan Mansion, they don’t have that much power to fight for a long time. The empire only needs to mobilize troops to break the blockade during the year of siege, and then so much investment they have put in vain, which is also a contradiction. So the minister is also considering whether there will be other conspiracies in the Kaman attack this time?"

Facing the vast sea and sky, Situ Mingyue didn't say anything for a moment. After a while, she sighed quietly: "It's hard for you. The empire is in great difficulty at the moment. The wolves around her are all trying to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fuck. And my energy is getting worse day by day, but none of my sons can make me feel at ease!"

Seeing His Majesty the Emperor talk about this issue, He Zhiqiu felt even more nervous. He could hear that His Majesty had the intention to become a crown prince, but he could not confirm it for a while. However, this kind of problem is the most taboo thing for foreign ministers. The royal affairs are all family issues. As a foreign minister, he can only keep his duties as a minister and do his best to be loyal to him. He must not make any comments at will.

"Your Majesty is prosperous in spring and autumn, and the spirit of dragon and horses is not necessary to worry too much about these issues now. All princes are smart and wise. At that time, there will naturally be someone you like. Your Majesty can be relieved." But since Your Majesty talked about this issue, He Zhiqiu had to answer vaguely.

"I won't talk about this anymore. Since my dear advocates letting Li Wufeng return to the northwest to resolve the Taixuan crisis, if it is difficult to control in the future, wouldn't it be that the tiger returns to the mountain?" Situ Mingyue also understood He Zhiqiu's difficulties and brought the topic back to the main topic.

"The situation is critical at the moment. If Taixuan Mansion or Jiayuguan is lost, it may trigger a chain reaction. Especially the Sithro people have always colluded with the Kaman people. If they also take the opportunity to send troops, the situation in the north of the empire will be difficult to deal with. In contrast, although Li Wufeng is difficult to control, he is an imperial general after all, and there is no other information he has. If the war can be quelled this time, he can also make plans. I suggest that Your Majesty immediately give him a marriage to him. If there is no time to get engaged first, it will not be too late to wait until the time is right. After the engagement, the princess can go to the northwest with him. On the one hand, it can calm people's hearts, and on the other hand, it can also exercise the right to monitor and control." He Zhiqiu said firmly.

"Is it too abrupt to give marriage now? And how effective can this be?" Situ Mingyue's forehead wrinkled slightly.

"Entering is just a situation, and there is no need to worry too much. As for the role, the Thirteenth Princess is wise and courageous, and has a unique vision. She is really the best candidate. Although the Seventeenth Princess is young, she is not inferior to the Thirteenth Princess. If she can win Li Wufeng's heart, she is very happy. If she cannot, she must use the status of a royal noble to penetrate into the northwest and try to break through the situation where Li Wufeng dominates himself and form a restraint. Li Wufeng cannot be the only one. Even if he notices it, I would not dare to act rashly on the verge of the world." He Zhiqiu's eyes showed a cold light, which made Situ Mingyue nod secretly.

The sudden marriage was unexpected, but he soon understood the painstaking efforts of His Majesty the Emperor. However, the seventeen-year-old Princess Seventeen was about to get engaged to him after just giving the coming-of-age ceremony, which really made Wufeng feel a little sudden. Fortunately, I heard that the seventeen-year-old Princess was born with a beautiful appearance, and was extremely talented. She was known as a talented woman in the palace. Wufeng had never been immune to beautiful women. When he heard that the envoy announced the emperor's imperial edict to give the marriage, he immediately agreed readily and thanked him repeatedly.

This incident immediately caused a sensation in the entire imperial capital and even the empire, and became a major news in the upper class. Major news media in the imperial capital announced the good news to the outside world with front-page headlines, and even Li Wufeng was about to return to the northwest to lead troops to resist foreign invaders, which seemed silent.

After receiving the news that Li Wufeng was about to return to the northwest, Wufeng's mansion seemed to have become lively again, especially Wufeng was about to become the son-in-law of His Majesty the Emperor, the well-deserved son-in-law, and married her to the Seventh Princess, who had just passed the coming-of-age ceremony. The mother of the Seventh Princess was twin sisters with the Seventh Princess' mother, which attracted the attention of many interested people, and the topics contained in it were enough to make many people scratch their heads.

Although the engagement ceremony was a bit hasty, it was extremely grand. Almost all the ministers and nobles in Beijing attended this engagement banquet that was enough to show off their capital in the future. The envoys from various countries also expressed their congratulations on behalf of the heads of neighboring countries, either sincerely or falsely. The gifts occupied five large rooms in Wufeng's mansion, which made several women, including Qin Shuangying, Gu Mingxia, and Charlotte, shocked them.
