"Let's talk about other things slowly. I came to you today because I have something important to ask you to do."
The emperor waved his hand casually. What he was going to say to Shen Tian next was a very important secret, and it could be said that it had to be dealt with.
Shen Tian knew that once the emperor showed this expression, there must be something important going on.
He did not insist on reporting Su Tong's matter, but sat upright and waited for the emperor to continue.
Seeing Shen Tian like this, the emperor nodded with satisfaction: "Now that the weather is getting colder and colder, the Northern Qiang people are going to take advantage of the winter to come and attack our country, the Great Zhou Kingdom."
Speaking of this, the emperor's face gradually turned cold.
Thinking of the people who died under the swords of the enemy soldiers in the Northern Qiang Kingdom in the winter.
The emperor couldn't help but feel angry.
Those are all his people!
Shen Tian's expression became more determined, and his eyes were filled with strong fighting spirit.
He also hopes that the harassment in the Northern Qiang Kingdom can be resolved as soon as possible.
The Northern Qiang Kingdom does not have enough food every winter. It is precisely because of this that it constantly invades the Great Zhou Kingdom.
Use this to plunder more food.
But their war horses were specially bred in the Northern Qiang Kingdom.
Not only is it thick-skinned, but it is also tall, making it more suitable for combat.
It's not slow either.
There were also various harassments and attacks, which led to an extremely long battle line.
Often several places are fought at the same time, and Da Zhou, who has no time to fight separately, can only suffer the loss of being dumb.
However, due to Shen Tian's reputation as the God of War General, the Northern Qiang Kingdom did not dare to attack aggressively.
They only dare to harass and plunder in winter.
The targets are all ordinary people.
In order to avoid causing disputes between the two parties, he even dressed up as a bandit.
This can successfully reduce friction between both parties.
Even though I feel like a mirror in my heart, there is no reason to expose it.
How can people not be angry at this? How can people not be angry?
"Does the Emperor want his ministers to lead the troops?"
Shen Tian knew it very well.
Since the emperor took the initiative to mention this matter, he must be hoping that he can stand up and solve the matter.
Otherwise, talking to him here would just be a waste of time.
The emperor nodded: "Yes, this matter is a serious problem for me. If it cannot be solved, we will definitely lose the support of the people in the long run."
He was a good emperor who loved his country and his people.
It has always been diligent in serving the people, without imposing strict taxes, and has also implemented various policies to better promote people's livelihood.
"My lord, take the order."
Shen Tian said that he was about to kneel down, but the emperor grabbed his arm and stopped his movement.
"I told you, you don't have to kneel."
The emperor said so, and he did not force himself to kneel all day long.
After the emperor finished talking about this matter, he handed over all his biggest worries to Shen Tian.
So he sat on the chair, continued to review the memorial, and then asked: "What did you say you wanted to report to me just now?"
His matters were more important, so he spoke first, but now that he had finished speaking, of course it was Shen Tian's turn.
"minister……"
Before Shen Tian could finish a sentence, someone banged on the door: "Father, open the door!"
"Oh, princess, you can't go in. The emperor is talking to the general about something big right now!"
The servants outside wanted to stop Su Tong, but they couldn't do it, so they could only give anxious advice from the side.
The emperor heard the noise and said helplessly: "Let her come in."
As soon as he said this, the eunuch felt as if he had been granted amnesty and quickly opened the door to Su Tong.
Su Tong has now changed into a gorgeous dress. Although she doesn't have many jewelry on her head, she is really very pretty.
Therefore, even if you dress freshly and elegantly and wear a gorgeous dress, you can still attract the attention of countless men.
But this man does not include Shen Tian.
"Tongtong, why are you here? Now that you are back, you should have a good rest!
What’s more, my ban has not been lifted yet!”
The emperor deliberately kept a straight face.
Of course he already knew about all the ridiculous things Su Tong did.
But after all, it is his own cub, and he must be protected as he should.
"My sons and ministers see my father."
As if she didn't hear what the emperor said, Su Tong shamelessly approached the emperor: "Don't you want me to marry Shen Tian?"
"It's not that I think about it, but this imperial edict has been issued. You have to marry me even if you don't want to!"
Although the emperor didn't want to say such things in front of Shen Tian, the ridiculous things his daughter did were really too much.
He didn't want to have any quarrel with Shen Tian, so he had to express his attitude in front of Shen Tian no matter what.
"Your Majesty, I think that if the princess is unwilling..."
"Father, I think this proposal is a good one. I am willing to marry him."
Su Tong didn't give Shen Tian a chance to finish his words, but spoke directly.
When the emperor heard this, he was immediately overjoyed.
Shen Tian frowned.
Why doesn't this princess play her cards according to the routine?
I said before that I would never marry him even if I died.
Why are you still eagerly approaching him now?
Sure enough, a woman's heart is as deep as a needle in the sea.
But Shen Tian didn't have any objections.
Since the emperor's marriage grant cannot be resisted, and the princess is willing to marry him, he might as well marry a vase back.
By then the princess will truly ascend to immortality, and he will be able to rest in peace.
"Okay, okay, if that's the case, then this matter is settled!
What do you think about waiting until you finish settling the matter with the Beiqiang and then come back to get married?"
Although the emperor granted marriage to two people before.
But the time was too short, and neither the betrothal gift nor the dowry was ready.
So now letting Shen Tian deal with the Northern accent can be regarded as giving them a buffer time to make preparations.
"yes."
Shen Tian had no objection.
He will not disobey the emperor's orders.
Anyway, as long as he doesn't love Su Tong, no one can stop him from doing anything.
By then everyone will also know what he thinks about Su Tong.
Su Tong no longer has the capital to be arrogant and domineering.
Shen Tian was thinking this, but Su Tong stared at him eagerly: "General, should we exchange tokens now?"
Even if the marriage is granted by the emperor, tokens should be exchanged.
So when Su Tong said this, he was also using the emperor's power to force Shen Tian to submit.
"I have been wearing this jade pendant. Since we are exchanging tokens, I will give this jade pendant to the princess."
Without hesitation, Shen Tian took off the exquisite jade pendant from his waist and handed it to Su Tong.
Su Tong nodded and took out a yellow talisman from his arms: "I'll give this to you, I developed it carefully!"
She straightened the folded yellow talisman into a small triangle and wore it with a red string.
Can be used to wear.
No matter how good-tempered Shen Chuan was, when he saw this yellow talisman, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
