"It's you who make me worry." Duanmuqian said this with a trembling voice. "In this expedition, I will transfer all the remaining troops in Nanlin, and the 80,000 forbidden troops outside the capital will also go all the way. Stay behind.

There are only five thousand guardsmen in this palace. If Na Yueli's army attacks, the palace will definitely not be able to defend it."

Duanmuqian patted Xian Xiao's back gently and lowered his voice, "At that time, Xiao'er can just put on the clothes of a palace maid and escape from the palace. I hope you can live well."

"Your Majesty!" Xian Xiao choked and spoke, "I am the queen of Nanlin. I will not escape. I am your first wife. She is yours in life and your ghost in death. She will follow you in life and death!

If the emperor wants to leave, I will never live alone!"

"Xiao'er, listen to me and live a good life. When the time comes, my secret guards will naturally come to find you. During your lifetime, you can still watch our prince get married and have children, and give him blessings on my behalf." Duanmu Qian was at this time.

His eyes turned red, "Only now do I understand how happy it is to be an ordinary person. Unfortunately, I can't do it, but you and Huang'er can do it."

"No, Your Majesty, I can't do that. I just want to be with you."

"Xiao'er, you must do it." Duanmuqian's words were more serious, "If I am gone, my children will still need you. For these children, you must live well! But, you must remember

Stay tuned, don’t contact your father and brothers. Their goals are too big and they will definitely be targeted by King Aoli. If you contact them, you will expose yourself and may also cause death."

"emperor!"

At this moment, the emperor and empress hugged each other tightly, and everyone who saw them was moved. Although the palace people behind them could not hear what the emperor and empress were saying, at this moment, what was flowing in the air was true love and sorrow.

That night, Duanmuqian had dinner with Xian Xiao at Qingfang Pavilion, then went to Qingmeng Pavilion to see Nangong Meng, and then went to Lingyu Pavilion to go to bed.

The next day, the masters of each palace got up early, packed up, and rushed to the tower of the palace to see Duanmu Qian off. Nangong Meng also rushed over with Xiaolan's support. Everyone was there, but Qingqian was nowhere to be seen.

Yu. The princes and princesses also stood there, watching eagerly.

Everyone was in a heavy mood, standing silently on the city tower, watching Duanmu Qian, who was dressed in military uniform, riding a horse and leading several masters and secret guards out of the palace gate slowly. Outside the palace gate, ministers and officials were already waiting there.

.A Royal Forest Army is also waiting here, and will accompany Duanmu Qian to join the 80,000 Imperial Guards outside the city.

Duanmuqian walked forward about ten steps, suddenly reined in the reins, and looked back at the tower. Many people on the tower had tears in their eyes, covering their mouths with their hands for fear of crying. Several young children

She even shouted with tears, "Father, Father!" The scene was really uncomfortable.

Xian Xiao's hands were firmly supported on the city wall. The mist had already covered her eyes and her vision was blurry. She just tried her best to open her eyes wide, hoping that she could see Duanmu Qian more clearly. Her fingers clung to the wall tightly.

She had no idea when her fingernails were cut off by the bluestone and she was bleeding.

Nangong Meng stood in the corner, leaning against the wall weakly, looking at the women and children crying beside him, with a particularly complicated mood. Looking up again, looking at Duanmu Qian turning around to look at everyone's reluctant eyes, Nangong Meng still felt

Somewhat sad.

Who said that the imperial power in this world has only been a battlefield for men since ancient times? Have you not seen that behind the battles of ambition, the victims are often weak women and innocent children? I think back then, I became a victim of the war and was forced to marry far away.

Now, Duanmuqian's entire harem is about to become Nanlin's burial object. What role does he play in this?

Thinking of this, Nangong Meng felt a pain in her heart, and it was uncomfortable to hold her breath there. She covered her chest with one hand, supported the city wall with one hand, and bit her lower lip tightly, trying to hold back the pain. The man in front of him was about to go to war.

Although the man is not the person in his heart, without his protection, he would not have been so relaxed in Nanlin for the past five years. But what he is about to face is his sweetheart, and what he has to face is the army of his own country.

What position should I take?

Nangong Meng's heart was in turmoil, and she felt a splitting headache. Thinking about Qing Yu's pain and Qing Yu's tears, she couldn't bear it. With a long sigh, the tears finally fell.

Duanmu Qian stopped for a moment, turned around resolutely, and shouted to the imperial guards in a hoarse voice, "Let's go!" He raised his whip and the horse under him ran forward. The ministers knelt down and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, please take care of me!"

After about a cup of tea, Duanmu Qian and the imperial guards disappeared completely. The concubines were still standing on the tower stupidly, looking at them dreamily.

The ministers outside the palace slowly stood up and gathered around the prime minister, discussing something in low voices. Xian Xiao's eyes had regained clarity, and she turned around and pulled her son over, saying, "Princes and

Princess, follow me to Qingfang Pavilion immediately!"

All of a sudden, the concubines took their children to Qingfang Pavilion. Xian Xiao ordered someone to take out the old and new coarse cloth clothes that had been prepared overnight. These children had been living in fine clothes since they were young, and when they saw such clothes, they couldn't help but look embarrassed.

.

Xian Xiao, who was sitting upright, frowned and shouted, "Everyone, please stand over here!"

"Yes, Queen Mother!" Seven or eight children hurriedly left their mother and concubine, and stood in a row in front of Xian Xiao in an orderly manner.

"From today on, you are just children in an ordinary family. You no longer have the status of prince and princess. You cannot mention your father, queen, and concubines to the outside world, let alone this palace. Otherwise, you will be killed. You

Do you understand?" Xian Xiao looked at the faces that were somewhat similar to Duanmuqian's, and felt endless sadness in her heart. She never thought that the last time she spoke to them as mother and empress, she would say something like this.

content.

"Time is running out, and my mother won't have time to explain it to you. You just need to remember that when you leave the palace this time, you have to listen to Uncle Hei and Aunt Hei for everything. If anyone doesn't listen, Uncle Hei will throw him away and leave him to his fate!"

"Xianxiao glanced at

The Ah Hei couple were already standing outside the main hall. This pair of secret guards had followed Duanmu Qian for twenty years. They were not impressive in appearance, but they had excellent martial arts skills, meticulous thinking, and absolute loyalty. Duanmu Qian was obviously right to choose them to protect his heirs.

.

"Children, please obey your mother's teachings!" Although the children are still a little ignorant, they have already realized that a disaster is coming. In the past two days, their mother and concubine have been sighing and wiping tears. This morning, the father and the king personally marched. Although they are small
