Dugu Ran was furious and slapped the armrest of the chair and said, "Fart, I am the lord of a country, you dare to let me go to the cellar to hide, come on, drag me out and cut it." Hearing this, the two palace guards walked in and dragged out the little eunuch who was so frightened that he kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Duguran calmed down and said to the little eunuch who was trembling on the side: "Go, let's see what's going on, is the air force of the Dongsheng Empire really here?" ”

The little eunuch was relieved, ran away, and after a while, he came in in in a panic and reported: "Your Majesty, it's true, there are a lot of strange things in the sky in the west, it should be the air force of the Dongsheng Empire." ”

Duguran's heart trembled, and he pretended to be calm and asked, "How many are here?" Where are they now? ”

The little eunuch replied: "What I saw, and what the forbidden army discovered, there are only a dozen, and it is not clear if there are any more in the distance, they are now in the imperial capital, flying around in the sky and don't know what to do, Your Majesty, we, aren't we?" ”

Thinking of the tragic death of the little eunuch just now, the blood outside had not been wiped clean, and the words of consolation of the little eunuch swallowed back, he didn't want to follow in the footsteps of that unlucky colleague.

Duguran was so angry, the other party was clearly showing off, showing off without concealment, this was a slap in the face, slapping him Duguran's face, he wanted to kill, but what could it do? Gritting his teeth for a while, Duguran took a deep breath, suppressed the irritability in his heart, and said in a cold voice: "Go and inform the city defense army and the forbidden army, and find a way to knock those things down for me." ”

The little eunuch wanted to remind Duguran that those airships flew very high, and even the strongest heavy crossbow could not threaten it, so he opened his mouth, but the little eunuch wisely did not say what he thought, and left with mixed feelings.

Duguran was very conflicted in his heart, he knew that his idea could not be realized, if he could really knock down those airships, he would not lose the land of the three counties in just ten days, the defenders everywhere, plus the elite generals sent to the front line, were all battle-hardened, if it was possible, they would not be so powerless to fight back, Duguran hesitated in his heart whether to go to the cellar to hide as the little eunuch said before, although it was a bit embarrassing and lost the country, but what if the other party really killed him? Can your own hall withstand the legendary bombardment?

Duguran looked up at the roof of the main hall, hesitating, he now regretted his impulsiveness, if only he hadn't killed the little eunuch just now, he could still borrow the slope to get off the donkey to hide, now it's good, there is not even a step, if he takes the initiative to dodge, then his old face will be thrown home. Compared with the face and life, Duguran finally made a decision, got up and said to the little eunuch who was waiting on the side: "Let's go, let's go out and have a look, by the way, I heard that Concubine Yi has recently brought a lot of fruits from Nanda Road, I haven't seen it, and I just tasted it today." ”

The eunuchs who can serve the emperor are very clever, and when they heard Duguran say this, they immediately understood what Duguran meant, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the fruits of the Southern Continent bought by Concubine Yi are all kept fresh in the cellar, if Your Majesty wants to taste them, it is best to go over and choose them yourself." ”

Although the little eunuch's words were a bit nondescript, and it didn't seem to be too close to him if he wanted to eat and choose it personally, Dugu Zhen was very satisfied, nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then I'll go over in person, by the way, go and call Concubine Yi too." Duguran wanted to escape, the little eunuch was naturally happy, and they were also worried that Duguran would be implicated and buried in the fire together.

Duguran didn't delay at all, got up and walked out, but he had just walked to the door and the little eunuch who had just given the order came back: "Your Majesty, the air force of the Dongsheng Empire has arrived at the palace, and it is not far from here, Your Majesty, don't go out, I'm afraid it will be dangerous if they find out." ”

The corners of Duguran's mouth twitched, it was difficult for him to ride a tiger now, he didn't go, he didn't stay, he thought about it for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and walked out of the hall first.

At this time, Yuan Fang's airship has come to the sky above the main hall, with the guidance of Dugu Zhen's guide, it is not difficult to find Dugu Ran's approximate location, Yuan Fang glanced at Dugu Zhen with a somewhat bad face, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, you may not understand me, my temper is that others respect me as soon as they return the battle, no matter what happened, no matter what kind of thoughts you and I have, we are allies after all, I dare not say others, but I can pat my chest and guarantee that as long as His Royal Highness sticks to the covenant, I Yuan Fang will not betray." At the beginning, we agreed that if one day, our Dongsheng Empire becomes stronger, we will definitely help you regain the throne and help you become the emperor of the Preferred Empire, this agreement is still valid, and I believe it will soon become a reality. ”

Dugu Zhen smiled and saluted and said: "Lord Yuan is high-spirited, keep your promise, Dugu Zhen I thank you first." ”

As the prince of the Rather Empire, Dugu Zhen is no stranger to politics at all, and is very good at this, he didn't take Yuan Fang's assurance just now, he thanked him, just out of politeness, but he didn't know, Yuan Fang didn't joke with him, what Yuan Fang said was true, and for a long time afterward, it was Yuan Fang's adherence to this promise that the Empire did not disappear in this new era.

Yuan Fang could see that Dugu Zhen didn't take his words seriously, and he didn't mind, if he could believe Dugu Zhen casually, then he wouldn't be able to mix it up today. Yuan Fang smiled and said, "Your Highness, you said that the emperor of the Rather Empire would not be here?" ”

Dugu Zhen looked at the forbidden army below and the little eunuch who came out from time to time, and said with great certainty: "Nine times out of ten." ”

Yuan Fang smiled and asked, "What do you think we should do?" Simply extinguish it? ”

Dugu Zhen's expression was a little strange, Yuan Fang's question was a little too direct, although he really wanted to let his royal brother die, but could he say this? They are brothers after all, and if he does this, what will others think of him, and how will he rule the empire in the future? Can the common people and officials still accept the rule of the brother killer? Dugu can really live until now, the key is his pro-people policy, if he speaks now, it will cause a lot of bad consequences.

This kind of thing should be done secretly, not so blatantly, and afterwards you have to find a reason and excuse for yourself in the past, so that you can stand on the highest moral ground.

Yuan Fang didn't have so many flowers, seeing that Dugu Zhen was silent, and he was not reluctant, besides, he knew in his heart that he would rather the emperor of the empire not be killed, at least not now, so he smiled and ordered: "Jingqiu, since they are hiding inside and not coming out, then give them some courage, let everyone spread out and surround the hall below, and blast into the open space outside, I will see how long he can hide." ”
