Chapter 1,608

After arranging the candidates to conquer the small country, everyone looked at Xiao Lintian nervously.

The Northern Wei Dynasty and the Eastern Qi Dynasty were the big ones. Who should Xiao Lintian send to resist them?

"Your Majesty, I am willing to lead troops to the border to resist the invasion of Dong Qi!"

The old marquis stood up without hesitation. He heard that Eunuch He sent someone to pass on Xiao Lintian's oral instructions and asked him to bring Ling Xianggang with him. He knew that Xiao Lintian wanted to give Ling Xianggang a chance to atone for his sins.

Already.

Ling Xianggang's current status is still that of a guilty minister, and it is impossible for Xiao Lintian to let him lead troops as a general to fight due to circumstances or reasons.

The old marquis could only nominate himself for the position of general, so that Ling Xianggang could follow him on the battlefield as his deputy.

King Kang immediately understood the intention of the old marquis. How could he let the old marquis get his wish? He immediately stood up and said.

"I object to the old marquis leading troops to go on an expedition..."

"Your Majesty, the old Marquis is old. He broke his leg when he fell off his horse last time. Although he can walk after treatment, he will not be able to bear it for a long time!"

"Going to the battlefield is no child's play. The lives of so many soldiers cannot be entrusted to such an old man who can fall at any time!"

When the old marquis heard that Prince Kang questioned his ability, he said angrily: "Prince Kang, when I followed my wife to the emperor to fight, you were not even born yet!"

"Even if I break my leg, do you believe that I can easily defeat you?"

"If you don't believe me, just go out. I can't knock you down within ten moves, and I will never mention going to the battlefield again!"

King Kang was immediately speechless. He was really no match for the old Marquis because of his unparalleled martial arts skills.

Forget it, old man, if you want to go, just go, I will make sure that you never come back.

Xiao Lintian asked Ling Xianggang to come because he had the intention of letting the old marquis take him to the battlefield. Seeing that the old marquis understood it, he said.

"The old Marquis used to guard the border and is familiar with Dong Qi. I will order you to lead troops to the border and cooperate with General Gu to stop Dong Qi!"

"Ling Xianggang!"

When Ling Xianggang saw Xiao Lintian calling his name, he stepped forward and knelt down on one knee.

"The guilty minister is here!"

Xiao Lintian said in a deep voice: "Ling Xianggang, you have made great achievements in quelling the rebellion in Weizhou this time, but it is not enough to offset your previous crimes!"

"This time I will give you the opportunity to make meritorious service, and I will order you as a deputy general to work with the old marquis to go to the border to stop Dong Qi!"

"When the war is over, I will reward you for your performance!"

Ling Xianggang said in a deep voice: "The guilty minister obeys the decree!"

Ling Xianggang also had mixed feelings in his heart, because his Sun family had slandered Ling Yu, but Xiao Lintian could still use him regardless of the past grudges. He secretly vowed to perform well and not to embarrass Xiao Lintian.

King Kang opened his mouth, but held back his objection. Anyway, he already wanted to take this opportunity to kill the old marquis. If Ling Xianggang went with him, they would kill him together to avoid having to waste any extra effort.

The ministers of Zhao Hui's party also knew the inside story of Ling Xianggang's events, and no one objected.

There may be a joint attack by the Northern Wei and the Eastern Qi during this trip. It is still uncertain whether Ling Xianggang will come back alive!

They couldn't offend Xiao Lintian for a dying man.

Ling Yu listened inside, feeling sorry for Mr. Hou and Ling Xianggang.

But Ling Yu also knew that this time was the opportunity to decide whether Ling Xianggang could stand uprightly on the Golden Palace again.

If Ling Xianggang is successful, the Ling family will regain its former glory and clear away the shadow that the Sun family has cast on the Ling family.

Ling Wan's blocked marriage path will also reopen with a bright future.

The old Marquis and Ling Xianggang had already made their choice, and even if Ling Yu was worried, she couldn't say anything to stop them.

"Where's the Northern Wei Dynasty?"

"Who will the emperor send to stop the Northern Wei Dynasty?"

When Prince Cheng saw that Xiao Lintian had sent the old Marquis to the border of Eastern Qi, he couldn't help but said: "The Eagle King of the Northern Wei Dynasty has unparalleled martial arts skills, and the soldiers under his command are also very powerful!"

"Your Majesty, if you don't mind my old age, let me lead my troops to stop the Northern Wei Dynasty!"
