After Gongsun Zan finished speaking, he went straight down to the city without looking back and returned to the palace to summon all the civil and military officials under his command.

Sitting high on the dragon chair, Gongsun Zan looked at the different expressions on both sides below him, lowering his head to see Wen and Wu. He felt ashamed and ashamed. Now that he was in a desperate situation, he sobered up from his original crazy state and recalled the boundary bridge.

During the period after the defeat in the battle, he was really ashamed of the brothers under his command.

They used to be a group of extremely loyal and brave people, and even Guan Jing, who liked to flatter others the most, had a die-hard loyal heart. But now they have no longer lived up to their original high-spirited and carefree attitude. Instead, they are downcast and fighting spirit.

Nothing.

Gongsun Zan knew that this was not their fault, but because of his previous cold-blooded and crazy actions, which led to the collapse of the faith in their hearts. Otherwise, even if they were faced with the same situation today, they would not be like this and would still be like this.

He clamored to attack without fear.

"Yuan Benchu's army is pressing down on the country and is about to approach Yijing. What good strategy do you have?" Gongsun Zan said in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, Yuan Benchu ​​is coming with force and his troops are strong. Attacking hard is not a good strategy. The current plan is to hold firm and send out a small group of cavalry to harass them. When they run out of food, they will naturally retreat." After waiting for a long time, everyone found Tian

Yu had been standing there with his eyes closed and had no intention of speaking. Guan Jing stood up and said.

The rest of the people all bowed their heads and said nothing. They also thought that what Guan Jing said was good. Of course, it would be better if the second half of the sentence could be removed. They were not willing to send troops to fight.

Seeing the silence among the civil and military officials below, Gongsun Zan's eyes flashed with a hint of disappointment.

"Okay, I'll follow what you said. However, our cavalry is still under-trained. If we send it out in a hurry, we might cause trouble. It's better not to send it out. We will just defend this Ji County city. Guan Jing, as the commander, you will be stationed at this city wall for me."

, don’t let anyone get close. I have stationed troops in the palace at the rear, and if anything happens, I will come to my rescue immediately." Gongsun Zan said in a deep voice.

"promise!"

A trace of disappointment flashed in everyone's eyes. In their opinion, Gongsun Zan said this because he was timid and just wanted to protect himself. He left his brothers outside to fight while he huddled in the palace. However, only Guan Jing looked aside and kept silent.

Tian Yu, who said nothing, had a look of intolerance on his face, as if he was aware of it.

"His Majesty!"

In the palace, looking at Gongsun Zan who was wiping his sword with his head lowered, Tian Yu said softly.

"Aren't you leaving yet? Yuan Benchu ​​will be here soon!" Gongsun Zan said calmly, but his tone was mixed with urging and dissatisfaction.

"I will not leave, and Baima Yicong will not leave either." Tian Yu said with a slight smile.

On Gongsun Zan's downcast face, the corner of his mouth twitched slightly: "If you don't leave, will you die with me? You are really stupid."

"Does Your Majesty still remember the slogan of White Horse Yi Cong?"

"Where righteousness comes, life and death follow it. Heaven can tell you, and the white horse is the proof." Gongsun Zan said with a bitter smile: "It's a pity that I am no longer worthy of the white horse's righteousness."

"If Your Majesty is not worthy of you, is there anyone else in this world who can be?" Tian Yu said with clear eyes: "The white horse Yi Cong was born because of Your Majesty, and he should fight for Your Majesty. Where justice comes, life and death will follow.

Is it an empty talk? Your Majesty today is still the same General Baima you were back then. He has never changed. Baima Yicong is willing to follow Your Majesty and die."

"What's the point of this? It's just a sacrifice. If you are alive, you can still watch this Youzhou and the grassland in the north for me. There is no need to do such a stupid thing for me, a dying person." Gongsun Zan.

He sighed softly.

"The northern grassland has been pacified by Your Majesty, and there are more than 300 Yi Cong in Yuan Gong Road, which is enough to inherit the will of Baima Yi Cong. We have no worries, but we hope to die with Your Majesty." Tian Yu said stubbornly.

"Okay. If you want to stay, just stay." Gongsun Zan's gloomy eyes were bright again, and a confident smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "But it's a pity that I can't light up the fire. Bai Mayi

Even if you die, you can only die on the way to charge. This time, let me take you through the final journey."

Looking at Gongsun Zan, who was as energetic as before, with a confident and arrogant face, Tian Yu showed a nostalgic look on his face and murmured: "Your Majesty..."

"You are right, the white horse righteous followers are still the white horse righteous followers, I am still me. It is just a failure, how can I be helpless? There are only tens of thousands of infantry, with the white horse righteous followers, I have nothing to fear! You can keep it secret

To find out the movements of Yuan Shao's army, especially Yuan Shao's position and situation, I want to finally fight Yuan Benchu." Gongsun Zan said openly.

"No!" Tian Yu said solemnly, then stood up and slowly retreated.

Gongsun Zan, on the other hand, gently flicked the yellow silk silk that he was wiping the sword into, and threw it into the air. Then he moved his right hand quickly, and saw a flash of white light. The silk silk was divided into two, and slowly fell to the ground.

The polished sword had been returned to its scabbard at some point.

However, Gongsun Zan, who had done all this in the blink of an eye, exhaled slightly, got up and returned to the inner room. After opening the secret room and the mechanism, he took out a square object wrapped in golden silk - the Jade Seal of the State.

Opening the silk, he revealed the traditional imperial seal made of jade and gold inlaid inside. Looking at the eight words "Ordered by God to live forever and forever" on the jade seal, and feeling the faint energy flowing in it, Gongsun Zan's expression gradually became determined, and he held the hand

Yuxi's hands gradually became stronger.

"If you get the Jade Seal of the Kingdom, you can win the world. Since I can't get the world, let this Jade Seal of the Kingdom bloom in me with its final glory and help me."

...

After leaving the palace, Tian Yu stood at the entrance of the palace and suddenly said to an open space: "Come out."

A figure suddenly appeared in this deserted place, saying with a smile: "As expected of the state minister, you discovered me so easily."

"You don't have much hidden meaning at all, why are you still saying such things?" Faced with Guan Jing's flattery, Tian Yu said unceremoniously: "Do you know that breaking into the palace privately is a serious crime? If His Majesty finds out, you

..."

"What can I do?" Guan Jing changed his usual tactful and timid attitude, interrupted Tian Yu's duties without politeness, and chuckled.

When Tian Yu heard this, his eyes dimmed for a moment and he was silent for a moment. Then he looked at Guan Jing again: "Why are you doing this?"

Guan Jing looked at the towering gate of Yan Palace and said pointedly: "I just want to know if my guess is correct, so I sneaked out secretly to verify it."

"Then what? What are you going to do now?" Tian Yu asked.
