Chapter 347 The Frightened Emperor

The armor placed in front of him made Xu Yan puzzled, and Xu Yan couldn't see through the intentions of the left prime minister.

"Old man, what does this mean?"

"Follow me to the border." Cheng Yu didn't sleep all night, but was in good spirits. The old man said with a concern: "Xu Yan, you can't stay in the capital."

"Border? Go to Qiyuanxia?"

Facing the confused Xu Yan, Cheng Yu shook his head and said, "If you don't go to Qiyuanxia, ​​the place we are going to is Lingshui City."

It is similar to the geographical location of Qiyuanxia. Qiyuanxia separates Qipu and Lingshui City is the boundary between Dapu and Beizhao Kingdom.

Xu Yan knew Lingshui City, but he didn't understand why the Zuo Prime Minister wanted to go to the border area in person. Before he could ask, the old man in front of him sighed heavily.

"The war is rising in the west, and the barbarians captured the Beizhao Kingdom more than ten years ago. Now, they are taking action against Dapu."

When he said this, the white hair on the old man's head seemed even more dazzling. This left prime minister of the current dynasty was not only disturbed by Dapu's internal worries, but finally ushered in a terrifying foreign enemy.

When Xu Yan learned that the border was in urgent need, he seemed even more inexplicable. Dapu's Lingshui City was attacked, so what happened to him, the proton of Daqi.

"Old man, if I go to Lingshui City, the emperor won't think I want to run away, right?" Xu Yan said in confusion.

"I just want to take you out of the capital." Cheng Yu said in a heavy voice: "The news came from the King of Zhenshan that the imperial city of Qi was slaughtered by the barbarians overnight. If you don't leave, you will definitely be involved."

When Xu Yan heard that the imperial city of Qi was slaughtered, he was shocked. The royal family of Qi was gone, and the princess of Dapu was also dead. Once Dapu's proton died, there was no need to keep him, the proton of Qi.

Although the news was amazing, Xu Yan was not a real Qi native, so he couldn't help but say, "Just just open my true identity, I was a great general."

Cheng Yu shook his head slightly and said, "The King of Zhenshan did not come back, but stayed in Qi to find the whereabouts of the princess. The imperial city of Qi was slaughtered, and the royal family of Qi might not be completely extinct. If the royal family of Qi escaped from the imperial city and held the princess hostage, the existence of your proton may become a turning point, so your identity cannot be made public in the near future."

Cheng Yu had his own concerns because the King of Zhenshan did not return, but only sent back a message that the imperial city of Qi was slaughtered by the barbarians.

With just one news, Cheng Yu could not determine the current situation of the royal family in Qi. Before confirming the princess' life and death, Cheng Yu was not prepared to disclose Xu Yan's identity immediately for safety reasons. However, if Xu Yan's identity was still the Marquis of Tianmen of Qi, what was waiting for him would be the confinement from the emperor, so Cheng Yu wanted to take Xu Yan away.

"Xu Yan, when the battle in Lingshui City is over, I will personally tell Your Majesty about your origin. Even if I commit suicide, I will not frown. However, if you want to leave the capital with me during this period, you will feel wronged for a while."

Xu Yan already understood Cheng Yu's difficulties. The old man in front of him was not easy. He not only had to worry about the princess's life and death, but also had to think about him, his junior.

"Since the old man is in charge of the battle, Xu Yan will be a pawn."

Xu Yan smiled and held up the armor in front of him. The left prime minister was doing his best for his safety. Xu Yan would definitely return this kindness, even if he didn't go to fight to kill the enemy, he could protect the old man's safety all the way.

"You are always a sensible child." Cheng Yu smiled and said, "When you get back to your true identity, you can just join the Money Sect with justification. Although the world is good, it is not as good as a thousand years of immortality."

The yearning for practitioners is the dream of all mortals, and even the left prime minister cannot avoid the common people. Perhaps he will not care about the ability to fly and escape from the earth, but the word "longevity" will eventually make all living beings greedy.

The left prime minister took charge, indicating that the border war has reached a point where it has endangered the country. The war smoke that has never been ignited in a century is like a spike, piercing in the hearts of the emperor of Dapu, piercing in the hearts of civil and military officials in the court, piercing in the hearts of every person who saw the war smoke.

Due to the news that the imperial city of Qi was slaughtered overnight, this time, the Zuo Prime Minister did not use Zhuyun Guard, but led the masters of the Ministry of Justice to order the Ministry of War to mobilize garrisons inside and outside the imperial city. Overnight, 200,000 troops were ready to go. On the way to Lingshui City, there would be garrisons from all over the place to be recruited. This time, the troops to assist Lingshui City are expected to be around 500,000.

Not only did the army start to set off, but Qian Zong and Taiqing Sect, who were righteous in the great sect, received an imperial edict and ordered them to send masters to Lingshui City to join the war.

In the face of national crisis, even the sects of the world have to contribute their efforts. The leader of the Taiqing Sect is the national teacher, so it is natural for him to contribute his efforts to the Dapu. The Qian Sect is a subordinate sect of the Jin Qian Sect. The Dapu royal family is deeply related to the Jin Qian Sect. Therefore, after the imperial edict, the four major families had to temporarily let go of the disagreement between them and dispatched masters to join the army to fight.

The Beizhao Kingdom has been in war for many years, and the situation has never been clear. Since I learned that the barbarians were attacking Beizhao, Dapu's side chose to close Lingshui City. Over the years, the Shenwu Cannon transported to Lingshui City was specially designed to prevent the barbarians from siegeing the city.

Although Dapu is like spring all year round, there are few dangerous passes to guard. Once Lingshui City is broken, the barbarians' iron hooves can almost go all the way to the capital. Therefore, this time on the expedition, Cheng Yu was determined to die on the battlefield. If he could not defeat the barbarians, then Dapu's country and country would ignite wars everywhere.

On the evening of the first day of the Lunar New Year, the Xicheng Gate opened wide. The old man who brought the handsome seal from the palace rode west on a huge frame. From a distance from the city wall, the army that had already set sail was like a winding dragon, with no beginning or end.

Cheng Yu had no choice but to take Xu Yan away privately. Not long after, the eunuch who was sent to the imperial guards led the imperial guards to Pang Mansion again. The Marquis of Tianmen who should have received the order had already left the imperial city and even the little black pig was missing.

A Tianmen Marquis is not a big deal for the current emperor of Dapu. What scares Chu Xuan was the news that the imperial city of Qi was slaughtered overnight.

Deep in the palace, in a tightly guarded side hall, Chu Xuan knelt in front of a huge bronze mirror and cried bitterly. There was only the emperor in the empty hall, but two voices appeared.

"Grandpa Emperor! Please save me. All the royal families in Qi have died. If the barbarians attack the capital, their grandson's life will be lost!"

The emperor who is usually majestic and the emperor in the hearts of the people is now like a frightened child. If others see this vision, it is probably the majesty and mystery of the imperial power will be destroyed.

As Chu Xuan cried, a light blue light curtain appeared on the bronze mirror in front of him, like a layer of clear water flowing. An old figure could be seen sitting cross-legged on the water. The old man was wearing a dragon robe, wearing a golden crown, and his face was majestic, and he looked more like an emperor than Chu Xuan.

The person in the mirror does not live in the mirror. This royal voice-transmitting treasure can communicate thousands of miles away. As the old man in the realm opens his eyes, a low voice comes like a bell.

"Are you an emperor or a prisoner? You were scared to cry before you even saw the shadow of the enemy. My junior of the Chu family is really worse than the previous generation..."
