Unwilling to be humiliated...... Yes, this is the character of Emperor Dongwan.

Xiao Yuqi lifted the corner of his mouth self-deprecatingly, let go of Wan Chun's collar, which he had grabbed excitedly for a while, muttered words that others couldn't hear, and sat down next to him.

"Your Highness...... His Royal Highness the Prince! Wan Chun walked to Xiao Yuqi's side, crying and calling him, "All the adults are waiting for you outside the door, please go out, Dongwan needs an emperor!" ”

Xiao Yuqi slowly raised his head, his neck made a "kalakala" sound as if it was rusty, and his expression was gloomy as dead ashes. He wiped the liquid from his face and said, "Okay." ”

The ministers were in a panic, and after discussing for a long time, they decided to invite Xiao Yuqi, His Royal Highness the Prince, to preside over the important affairs, and they were waiting outside the gate of the East Palace at the moment, waiting for Xiao Yuqi to come out.

As for the funeral of Emperor Dongwan, it can only be hastily arranged.

The door of the temple slowly opened, revealing a breath of death and decadence.

Xiao Yuqi still had a hangover flush on his face, and there was a stagnant silence in his eyes, he glanced at the officials outside the gate of the East Palace, and was silent for a long time.

I'm afraid that today is the most concerted gathering of Dongwan officials in the past three months. Xiao Yuqi was mocking in his heart, and he didn't know who he was mocking, and his face was gloomy.

The officials looked at each other, not knowing what Xiao Yuqi's silence meant, so they could only make their eyes communicate with each other, and finally under the leadership of the minister of Yipin, dozens of courtiers knelt on the ground and shouted in unison: "Long live my emperor Wan'an!" ”

Xiao Yuqi smiled contemptuously unconsciously.

At this point, the country of Dongwan is still the same, but the emperor has been replaced.

……

Dongwan court.

The emaciated Emperor sat on the dragon chair with his forehead propped up, indifferent to the quarrel that was as lively as the vegetable market.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" The military department Shangshu shouted twice, and Xiao Yuqi turned his attention back and looked at him indifferently.

"What Aiqing said is reasonable." Xiao Yuqi waved his hand very perfunctorily and replied, and his attention tended to shift elsewhere.

The military department still finished his words, and stood in place without embarrassment.

The new emperor ascended the throne, Wan Chun was still the chief eunuch, at this time, the emperor was not in a hurry, and he reminded Xiao Yuqi in a low voice: "Your Majesty, Lord Shangshu of the Ministry of War is asking Your Majesty about his future battle strategy." ”

"Battle strategy?" Xiao Yuqi seemed to finally have a hint of interest, he raised his eyebrows and said, "What is the opinion of the military department?" ”

"The minister thought that when he was fighting, and he was going to fight quickly and accurately, he thought of thirty-three strategies overnight, and he was about to ......" The military department Shangshu wanted to pull out his sleeves and offer his plan excitedly.

Xiao Yuqi smiled faintly and interrupted, "No need. ”

The secretary of the military department froze on the spot, and at the same time, all the officials who fought in the main battle were frozen.

Your Majesty...... What does that mean?!?!

In fact, Zeng Ming, the secretary of the military department, as a person who was once entrusted with a "great plan" by Emperor Dongwan, was the backbone of the main station faction of the Dongwan court.

Zeng Ming secretly hated the day when Emperor Dongwan committed suicide, he was recuperating from his injuries in the house, and he failed to persuade the first emperor, so he made the first emperor go to a dead end. So he only wanted to fight until he defeated the army of Western Chu.

It's a pity that there are not many people who have the same idea as him, including the new emperor today, Xiao Yuqi.

Xiao Yuqi's attitude couldn't be clearer, the secretary of the military department was unwilling, and wanted to speak again, but was stopped by Liu Shilang on his side. Zeng Ming and Liu Shilang have been friends for many years, so they naturally know the roots, in order to stop the loss in time, the two court officials glanced at each other, and finally quieted down at the same time.

Xiao Yuqi on the dragon chair was bored with the unfit dragon robe on Lala's body, he didn't look at the ministers under the hall, and concluded to himself: "There are no other trivial matters, let's disperse if it's okay." ”

The enemy army is outside the gate of the capital, and the capital of Dongwan may fall at any time, but Xiao Yuqi calls such matters related to the life and death of the country "trivial matters"? !

I thought that the first emperor died, the new emperor ascended the throne, and Dongwan could usher in a less dark future, but the new emperor was so depressed? !

The future of Na Dongwan......

The ministers exchanged glances, shook their heads helplessly, and prepared to retreat and leave. Wan Chun also waited for Xiao Yuqi's eyes, just waiting to sing and cheer, announcing that the dull court could be dispersed.

However, Xiao Yuqi raised his head at this time, and he smiled: "How is the Western Chu army on the other side?" ”

The eyes of the military department Shangshu lit up, and he immediately replied: "Your Majesty, the army of Western Chu is thirty miles outside the capital, and the leader of the Praetorian Guard is trying its best to resist, and the battle situation is still in a stalemate......

"Hehe," Xiao Yuqi smiled, and just when the ministers were at a loss, he said coldly, "The battle situation is stale?!" The Western Chu army is like a wolf and a tiger, and with the group of lazy soldiers of the Praetorian Guard who have not fought for more than ten years, they can also fight with the soldiers under Nalan Ye? ! ”

Xiao Yuqi saw through at a glance that Shangshu of the Ministry of War was just whitewashing the battle situation, and he knew very well that with Dongwan's current situation, he had no ability to stand with Nalan Ye at all.

"Your Majesty...... The minister didn't dare to bully the king, but the king of Chu, Nalan Night, had slowed down his offensive for some reason recently, which gave our soldiers a little respite......" The military department Shangshu was full of panic, and he said intermittently, but he still told the truth.

Nalan Ye slowed down the offensive? I'm afraid I won't attack it directly, Xiao Yuqi thought sarcastically.

It's just that...... Why did Nalan Ye do this? Attacking the capital of the enemy, the situation is very good, but the troops are not moving forward, and they are stationed thirty miles away, in the ...... Watching?

Xiao Yuqi held his head with one hand and pondered, and after a while, he came to a conclusion, and he pulled the corners of his mouth self-deprecatingly: "Retreat!" ”

Wan Chun, who was beside him, immediately sang loudly: "Retreat!" ”

The military department still thought that there was a turnaround, but he didn't expect Xiao Yuqi to announce his retirement from the dynasty without saying a word, and wanted to shout Xiao Yuqi to say a few more words, but was stopped by Liu Shilang again.

"Isn't your majesty's meaning clear enough?!" Liu Shilang hated him and scolded the military department Shangshu, "You have been an official for so many years, why are you confused at this time?!" I still want to shout to your majesty, you, are you stupid?! ”

The secretary of the military department brought Liu Shilang back to his senses with a few words of shouting on his head and face, he hung his head in annoyance and muttered: "This official knows, isn't this, I want to find a less difficult way out for the people of Dongwan......"

Liu Shilang also sighed, who doesn't want to find a way out for his country facing destruction? I'm afraid even His Royal Highness the Crown Prince...... No, Your Majesty thinks the same way, but you really can't think of a way out.

"Let's go, don't overthink it." Liu Shilang patted his old friend on the shoulder.

The two old ministers of Dongwan left two quite vicissitudes of life in the morning glow of the palace.

They tried their best, they all tried their best.

They could almost guess Dongwan's future, but there was really nothing they could do.

Xiao Yuqi in the imperial study sat on the wide dragon-patterned chair with his head tilted, his face full of exhaustion. The meaning of Nalan Ye's move is easy to guess, Nalan Ye is waiting for him to take the initiative to surrender, that's right, Nalan Ye has already controlled the overall situation, and it is only a matter of time before Dongwan is defeated.

I don't know if his move was out of the arrogance of the prince of Chu himself, or Luo Qingluan's intention, leaving him with a little face. But Xiao Yuqi didn't want to think about it anymore, no matter what the purpose was, this was the road in front of him.

Weigh it down? Weigh it down.

Xiao Yuqi laughed twice in a low voice, and Wan Chun, who was pale, didn't dare to persuade him loudly, so he could only whisper to Xiao Yuqi to eat on time, and then quietly retreated.

Xiao Yuqi returned to the palace to give his heart to the people of Dongwan, but he didn't seem to have done anything useful, and he had already become the new emperor that no one believed in.

He did his best, too.

That's it.

……

Two months later, the "hard-standing" Dongwan army was finally defeated, and Xiao Yuqi presented a letter of state, claiming to surrender to Western Chu.

Nalan Ye became famous again, not only Dongwan, but also the Southern Wei Dynasty, which borders Western Chu, began to worry, and the whole country was shaken, lest the prince of Chu would be unhappy and destroy their country by the way.

Therefore, the creation of the god of war is so natural.

Fortunately, Nalan Ye did not have any idea of taking Southern Wei into his pocket for the time being. After receiving Xiao Yuqi's letter of surrender, the prince of Chu was in a good mood, and ordered his henchmen to start packing up, and he was ready to return to the court with his wife and children.

Go back to Xichu.

Emperor Nangong Qing of Western Chu sent a lot of troops this time, and it took a lot of effort to clean them up. Nalan sought Dongwan at night, and it was when he had nothing to do, taking advantage of this free time, he relaxed his mind and began to take his daughter-in-law and son to play around.

Yuan Xing and Yong'an, who were busy dealing with miscellaneous matters, often couldn't find their own prince, and they didn't dare to go out to look for it, for fear of ruining the prince's good mood and being rectified, so they could only grit their teeth miserably and continue to be busy.

Long Kai and Long Ning appeared when Yuan Xing was busy and annoying.

Long Ning thought that Nalan Ye would never let go of their father and daughter no matter what, and it happened that Nalan Ye had ruined her business, and she wanted to take revenge on Nalan Ye, and planned to attack the military camp this night.

Unfortunately, he was caught by Yuan Xing.

It is also unusual, the last time Long Ning Xiao Yuqi and the others broke into the palace of the King of Chu, they were first discovered by Yuan Xing, and at this time, they were the first to be noticed by Yuan Xing.

Although Long Kai and Long Ning were masked, Yuan Xing was extremely familiar with Long Ning's figure and had the "experience" of the last time, so he recognized the identities of these two people at the first moment.

However, Yuan Xing hated Long Ning the woman the most, not to mention the plan to disrupt the prince three times, and killed many brothers of the Dark Night Hall! Before, it was for the sake of this woman being the prince's younger sister, Yuan Xing has always been difficult to start, but now he ......

Yuan Xing sneered and shouted at the sneaky two people on the wall of the granary of the Western Chu military camp: "What person?!" Dare to trespass on the Western Chu military camp!! ”

Since Long Ning himself and the prince have severed the relationship between the master and the sect, what can he do if he Yuan Xing is cut first and then played today? ! While Long Kai Longning was still immersed in the panic of being discovered, Yuan Xing sneered and blew the whistle in his hand.

"The trespasser is dead, come on, release the arrows!" Yuan Xing ordered in a cold voice.
