This strategic layout map was personally fortified and replaced by the King of Zhenbei. Not many people in the army knew about it, and only a handful of people had seen it.

"Don't make any announcement about this in advance. You two will investigate in secret first. As for the layout plan in the meeting room, you don't have to panic. My father saw some flaws in it a few days ago and has already redone it.

One copy, I just haven't had time to inform you, I will order people to re-defense later." Regarding the two of them, King Zhenbei could completely rule out the suspicion that it was a deliberate act and believe them.

Because the Shangguan family has been members of Daqi generals for generations, they themselves are proud and loyal ministers. Shangguan's deep-rooted loyalty to serve the country will not let him lose the face of his ancestors, and he will never do anything treasonous. And Wei Ci, family background

He is simple and innocent, and he is a heroic and courageous man. He has been in danger of death for Daqi several times and died in death. It is even more impossible to be a treasonous villain. As for the hidden details...

Thinking of the other adopted sons and cronies, King Zhenbei showed a stern look on his face, and murderous intent surged in his eyes: "Whoever is found to be a traitor to our Daqi, kill him!"

The King of Zhenbei has been loyal throughout his life and has guarded the northern border for decades. He has long been integrated with the northern territory. He is here to guard the territory without any harm. Even if he dies in battle, his loyal soul will protect this land. His soldiers in the northern border are even more important.

There is no tolerance for treason and cheating. As long as he finds out who the cheat is, even if he is his own son, he will not tolerate it.

Of course, it is absolutely impossible for Li Baiyu. He usually looks out of tune, but his loyalty to the country and his pride are not inferior to anyone else.

.

On an autumn night, I can't feel the slight cold in the northern border that is full of yellow sand. It is still as sultry as a cage.

Behind the same tall sand wall, two figures, one tall and one short, met in the silent night. The tall figure seemed to be handing something over and whispered: "Go back and tell my father, the army."

When entering the country, I hope that the Jin army will not harm any unarmed innocent people in Daqi."

Even though he knew it was impossible, he still couldn't help but speak out.

When the woman who took the thing heard this, she chuckled, her tone became scornful, and she said disdainfully: "This is not something that the little prince should worry about. When the two armies confront each other, no matter whether they are unarmed civilians or not, the casualties will be the same.

It is inevitable. Please also ask the little prince not to forget his own identity. Your compassion should not be placed on any Daqi person."

"By the way, the eldest prince asked his subordinates to tell the little prince that we haven't seen you for many years, but your mother is still waiting for you to come home!" After saying the meaningful words, the woman sneered and walked away.

A prince who had served as Daqi's major general was destined to be unqualified to compete with her master for the throne. After all, the throne of the Kingdom of Jin belonged to her master's eldest prince.

This was the second time Huo Xiaoguang heard the word "go home" from this woman. However, last time he could treat her indifferently, but this time he could no longer control the anger and even endless hatred in his chest.

Yes, he hated, wished he could kill the Demon Queen and her son in the West Palace of Jin Kingdom.

"Wan Yanliang..." Looking at the direction in which the woman disappeared, Huo Xiaoguang's whole body was trembling with anger, and his fists were clenching.

The Imperial Palace of the Kingdom of Jin has two main palaces, the east and the west. One is the empress of the east palace selected by the emperor, and the other is the demon empress of the west palace who is loved by the Jin Emperor. Comparing the two, the west palace wins the favor of the emperor, and the east palace wins the hearts of the people. This also leads to

The East and West Palaces have been fighting openly and secretly for many years, and they are incompatible with each other.

But just seven years ago

, the East Palace was falsely accused of seducing the harem. The Jin Emperor listened to what the Demon Queen of the West Palace said and would abolish the poisonous wine given by the East Palace even if no investigation was conducted. Faced with the so-called human and material evidence, the empress was so proud that she could not tolerate this.

It was a great humiliation, and seeing that Emperor Jin was so heartless and unjust, he was so heartbroken that he decisively jumped from the imperial city. Although he did not die, he became a living dead who would never wake up.

Although some good ministers overcame all difficulties to clear the grievances of the East Palace, it was too late, and the Queen's mother's family was harmed by the Demon Queen. Without the protection of her mother, and without the support of her maternal grandfather's family, the young prince

Wan Yanguang was often bullied and poisoned in the palace. In the end, several ministers could not bear the death of the son of a wise empress at the hands of the Demon Empress, so they proposed to send him to Daqi as a hidden stake. Thinking of the trace of flesh and blood, Emperor Jin agreed.

.

Wan Yanliang was sent to Daqi and changed his name to Huo Xiaoguang. Although it was clearly intended to be demoted, it was actually to save him from the hands of the Demon Queen.

Wan Yanguang had been in Daqi for seven years. If someone from the Jin Kingdom had not come to him, he would have regarded himself as a Daqi general. But from the beginning to the end, he came with a purpose.

The blood of the Jin Kingdom’s royal family flows in his blood.

In this life, no matter how much he pretends to be like him, he...can't become a Daqi man after all.

…

In just ten days, Huangsha City became an empty city, and all the surrounding villages were evacuated.

The women and children in Huangsha Village will also leave tomorrow with the last group of nearby villagers. Originally, they could leave earlier, but because several women in the village have had continuous fetal movements in the past few days, they have given birth to Lin'er one after another.

, it was delayed until the last batch left.

In Huangsha Village, Sanniang sat by the kang with her belly supported on her belly. She held an old cattail leaf fan in her hand and fanned Xuanxuan who was sleeping absentmindedly. From time to time, she looked out the window through the room and the oil lamp hanging at the door.

Sultry day.

For some reason, she felt that something bad was going to happen, and she had always been uneasy. Now looking at the dull black sky outside, this feeling was even worse, like panic when danger approaches.

The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt. After thinking about it for a while, Sanniang put down the cattail leaf fan, gently picked up the sleeping Xuanxuan, and walked towards Xiaobao's mother's house opposite.

At the end of Huangsha Village, a woman who had just given birth was lying weakly on the kang, looking lovingly at the child under the thin quilt. The more she looked at her, the softer her eyes became, as if she were looking at the most precious treasure in the world.

There was also a gentle smile.

Suddenly, there was a collision sound in the yard. Just when she thought it was her sister-in-law who was helping to take care of her, the curtain at the door was thrown open. When she raised her head, she happened to face a big man in black with a knife, and her pupils were suddenly frightened.

Zooming in, he instinctively blocked the child inside. But in an instant, before she could scream, a sharp long knife had already penetrated her chest.

Blood dripped onto the quilt along the piercing blade, condensing into a large patch of bright red.

As soon as the big black man pulled out the knife, another big man ran in and asked in a low voice: "Is it solved?"

"I saw a woman in the room, it's settled." The big man replied to him. After speaking, he glanced at the motionless woman again. A strange light flickered in his eyes for a few times. He said with some pity: "It's a pity that the time was too late, otherwise,

I must have a taste of this Daqi girl."

"Okay." The big man who came in later only took one look and said with a sullen face: "Stop talking nonsense, the eldest prince is still waiting outside! Let's go quickly."

After the two left quickly, no one discovered that there was a child under the thin quilt. The woman who had been stabbed in the chest with a knife took her last breath and took out a stick left by her husband from the bamboo basket in the corner tower.

With great difficulty, he climbed to the window with a thunderous whistle, used his last breath to light it and let it go.

Her husband once told her that he said the thunder whistle would be beautiful when it flew into the air and bloomed, but it was a pity that it couldn't be placed casually. Today she finally saw it. Her husband really didn't lie to her, it was really beautiful!

Looking at the fire that bloomed in the night, it was as beautiful as the fireworks that can only be seen in a bustling city. It was so bright and dazzling, but it was only for a moment. The woman only took a look, and the last bit of strength was exhausted, and her blood dripped.

She fell to the ground, but her eyes were fixed on the kang. However, she no longer had the life to crawl back to see her child again.

The thunder and fire whistle is a firework warning, which is used to notify the enemy of incoming attacks. It is known to everyone from the soldiers in the army to the women and children of Huangsha Village.

Women are weak, but mothers are strong. As soon as the fireworks went off, the women and children in the village hurriedly closed the doors and windows, hid the children at home, and held the knives used for chopping and cooking tightly to protect the door.

They are also afraid, but their children are even more afraid, so no matter how scared they are, they cannot retreat at all. This is the nature of mothers to protect their children.

After Sanniang hid the three children with Xiao Baoniang, she also took out her dagger and stood guard at the door.
