The atmosphere in today's morning court was unusually low, with a touch of silence on everyone's face. Whether it was for outsiders to see or out of emotion, such a result was not what everyone wanted to see. Among all the kings,
, King Yu is the only one who does not participate in any partisanship, and he is the only one who can stay out of it.
Early in the morning, his body had been transported to Qisa. Emperor Zong was in tears. After taking his son back with his ministers, he wiped away his tears and went to court in pain, vowing to use Wan Qixun's death to
Capture Tiandu Kingdom.
Wan Qiqing's fine eyes never left his father's face of suppressing sadness. With such hatred, why did he agree to let his seventh brother lead the army in the first place? It would be ridiculous to do this now. The death of the seventh brother, with
Tiandu Kingdom is not even close to each other, and it was all caused by him. Even though there is no deep brotherhood between him and his seventh brother, he is not so cruel that he turns a blind eye. I am afraid that the truly cruel person is this crying man.
The father who shouted to avenge his seventh brother.
Emperor Zong couldn't help but hush, "Now, only General Shi is leading the battle. I want to appoint another commander to continue Xun'er's unfinished mission. Who among the ministers wants to take on this important task?"
For a moment, no one in the court dared to say anything. Except for the most powerful general in the court, except the Five Kings Flame King, who could be said to be brave and invincible, none of the other generals dared to issue this military order. Emperor Zong's eyes swept across the hall, and finally
It fell on Wan Qiqing.
"Fourth, what do you suggest?"
Wan Qiqing raised his eyebrows and looked around. At this juncture, why not ask anyone else but him?
He cupped his fists and took a step forward, "Father, I am willing to lead the army and take command!"
Having been by his father's side for so many years, he knew his character well. Being able to ask this question meant that he had intended to let him send troops. Since when did his father 'value' him so much?
"Well," Emperor Zong nodded, but did not agree. Instead, he turned his head and asked Wan Qijing opposite, "Third brother, do you have any suggestions?"
"Father," Wan Qijing said with a serious look on his face, he took a step forward, "My son is willing to take command! I will avenge my seventh brother!" The determination at this moment was completely different from that of the elegant young master in ordinary times. He was purely seeking revenge for his brother.
of awe.
"Yes." Emperor Zong nodded again, looking back and forth between his two sons.
"Then..."
At this moment, a message suddenly came from the hall, "Dragon Girl requests an audience."
Anyone else would not have the guts to disturb Emperor Zong when he went to court. But Long Nu’s status in Qisa is so outstanding that it cannot be generalized.
Everyone was puzzled and looked at each other. Emperor Zong frowned slightly, not knowing why she was here at this time. Wan Qizhao's evil eyes flickered past his doubts, and he couldn't help but look at the door a few times.
Wan Qiqing also couldn't guess what would happen to her, so he chose to meet her in court.
Emperor Zong smiled slightly and said, "Xuan."
Mai Mai, who looks better than Xin Bu, changed out of her usual blue and wore a plain dress. The white was a bit dazzling. Her long hair was only tied up with a white ribbon, which was noble and elegant. Compared with her white clothes, she
His face was about three points whiter, and the only thing that added color to his white body was his pair of dark eyes, which were like a whirlpool in the deep sea. Once you look into it, you don't know where it will be swept up.
"See you, Your Majesty." Mai Mai didn't squint his eyes and bent down towards Emperor Zong.
"Dragon Girl, please get up. I wonder if Dragon Girl has anything to do to meet you at this time?"
"Your Majesty, Xuanlan had a dream from the gods last night, which is related to the safety of Qisa, so I came here to report it." Mai Mai was calm and composed, with a cold light shining on her smooth face.
As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was in an uproar. The dragon girl had received a dream from the gods. This was the most direct manifestation, and it was also related to Qisa. Everyone stretched out their ears and looked at her intently.
"Oh?" Emperor Zong did not dare to underestimate it, and asked solemnly, "Dragon girl, please tell me, what is the dream? What warning does the god have?"
"Yes," Mai Mai stood in the hall and said loudly, "In this battle between Qisa and Tiandu, the Qisa Dynasty will definitely receive God's blessing!"
"It's great, it's great, even God is helping us."
"That's right, now we can rest assured."
The ministers in the hall were all excited. No matter what the meaning of doing this was, as long as God was protecting them, there was nothing to be afraid of. Those who were originally worried felt like they had received a reassurance, and they all felt that God was caring for them.
"Well, that's great!" Emperor Zong seemed to have forgotten the pain of losing his son. Hearing Mai Mai's words, his face was full of smiles. He can be a famous teacher and be blessed by God. He has enough confidence in this battle.
"But," Mai Mai lowered her eyes slightly, but she said nothing and attracted everyone's attention.
Looking up, seeing Emperor Zong's eagerness, Mai Mai replied softly, "However, God has made it clear that Xuanyun must fully assist the Emperor."
"Oh, that's natural. I have the Dragon Girl." Emperor Zong nodded.
Mai Mai's eyes were firm and his face was calm, "So, Xuanyun will go to court and participate in politics from now on!"
Everyone was stunned and didn't know how to react. Although Long Nu had a distinguished status, she was a half-monk and had never had any precedent of going to court to participate in politics.
Wan Qiqing glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze. He knew very well what she wanted to do. However, it was too risky to do so. She was directly involved in the dispute. And there was far more to it than that.
She imagined it to be terrible.
Xie Si's face showed inquiry, looking into her calmness. She wants to participate in politics? What is the purpose?
Emperor Zong stroked his beard gently and stared at her with his exquisite eyes, "Dragon Girl wants to participate in politics?"
"Your Majesty, this is not Xuanyun's intention, but God's intention."
If he disobeys God's will, he is completely ignoring God's blessing. If he agrees, then she must go to court. This is only the first step, the first step to get everything back for him.
He pondered for a long time, but couldn't make up his mind. He looked at Wan Qizhao inquiringly, "Lao Liu, what do you think?"
"Father, son and minister... I agree." No matter what she wants to do, he will not object.
Wan Qizhao's words made Zong frown slightly, but he remained silent. Then he looked at Wan Qiqing aside, "Fourth, what about you?"
"But it's up to my father to decide." Wan Qiqing returned the question raised by Emperor Zong without being humble or overbearing.
"Your Majesty, the Dragon Girl is the reincarnation of a god. If we can get her help, we will get twice the result with half the effort."
"Yes, Your Majesty, it's rare for a dragon girl to have such a heart. This is our country's luck."
The ministers below agreed, unanimously in favor of having such a reincarnated goddess participate in government affairs. This is like a gamble with unpredictable results. They can only place their hope in the gods. People often need spiritual guidance to strengthen them.
Faith. And Mai Mai seized on this weakness and used her identity as a dragon girl to enter the court and participate in politics.
Emperor Zong's eyes were incomprehensible. He looked at Mai Mai who was as calm as water, and said slightly, "Since it is God's will, how can I act against God. From now on, Dragon Girl can go to court and participate in politics."
Rujiong reveals a profound meaning that is difficult to capture.
"Honor the decree." Mai Mai stood at the front of the hall in a dignified manner.
In such a group of ink colors, she is like a cold chrysanthemum that leads all the flowers, proud and unconventional, yet firm and extraordinary. This kind of wheat brings everyone a shock that cannot be ignored.
He couldn't tell what was different about her, but he only knew that she was becoming more and more difficult for him to look away from. Wan Qiqing ignored the strange things in the courtroom, his eagle eyes locked on her.
"Ahem," Emperor Zong coughed uncomfortably because a woman appeared here, and finally continued the topic, "About the candidate for the handsome seal..."
"Your Majesty!" Mai Mai took a step forward and interrupted Emperor Zong's words.
Emperor Zong said slightly displeasedly, "What's the matter with Dragon Girl?"
"Xuanyun wants to take over the position of head coach." She was calm and composed, with outstanding demeanor. Little did she know that her words would cause another sensation.
"No!" Two voices of opposition sounded in unison.
Wan Qizhao and Wan Qiqing objected at the same time, regardless of anything else. They took a step forward at the same time. Wan Qiqing was the first to speak, "You are a dragon girl. You don't know how to lead troops in war. How can you do it?"
It was rare for Wan Qizhao to reach an agreement with him on this matter, so he continued, "Do everything according to your ability. Even if you are determined to help Qisa win, you don't have to do it yourself. All you have to do is pray to the gods for us."
"Your Majesty," Mai Mai said, ignoring the two of them at all, "to lead an army, you don't have to be brave and good at fighting. There are many people who can make ships and oars disappear into ashes while talking and laughing.
We have made a military declaration in front of you, and we will definitely capture Tiandu within one month."
Her self-confidence came suddenly, and no one would understand why she did this. The only explanation is that she sincerely contributes to the Qisa Dynasty. Otherwise, why would she issue a military order to capture Tiandu? What good will it do to her?
Unknowingly, I felt a little more in awe of this dragon girl.
"It is a great blessing for the Qi Sa Dynasty to have this dragon girl."
"It is indeed God's blessing."
The ministers were impressed one after another. Regardless of whether she could really do it or not, she deserved a round of applause just for such a heroic act.
Due to Mai Mai's identity, Emperor Zong wanted to refute but couldn't refute it directly. He couldn't say it in front of the ministers. He didn't believe in a woman? What about the saying of God's blessing? It also came from her, and he didn't believe it either.
Really? If he agreed to her, he would ruin his plan, but if he didn't agree to her, it would go against what he had said before.
When Emperor Zong was in a dilemma, Wan Qijing smiled slightly and said, "Father, since Dragon Girl insists on this, you can let her give it a try for the time being. However, this month is too long, let alone the reincarnation of Dragon Girl.
The fifth brother didn't dare to say this. Why don't we give it a seven-day period, and if we can force the Tiandu Kingdom to retreat, then hand over the commander's seal to her. On the other hand, this military order is not a joke." The calm expression was completely different.
It's like being able to say such words without a trace of emotion.
Mai Mai raised her eyebrows and looked at King Jing, the most kind-faced among the brothers. He wanted to kill her? Humph, he looked down on her too much. If he dared to say this, she would be half sure. In modern times, she only
She is obsessed with two things; one is her guilt for her younger brother, and the other is her love for her major. Unfortunately, she majored in history. She has read all kinds of ancient military books, and when she came to
After Qi Sa, while living in Nian Xi Palace, she had done detailed research on the general situation and military aspects of each country.
Now, it is a good foundation for her plan. She has accumulated thousands of years of combat experience, how can it be compared to Qisa and Tian?
"Okay!" Emperor Zong smiled and nodded in agreement, a scheming light flashing through his eyes. He could afford seven days. He could not only preserve his own face, but also force her to give up voluntarily, which was very good.
"Have you thought it through, Dragon Girl? Do you still want to issue this military order?"
"No problem," Mai Mai chuckled suddenly, "Within seven days, if Tiandu cannot be forced to retreat, Xuanyun is willing to die." Even if she only had seven days to live, she would not complain at all if she could do so much for him.
Two anxious eyes were focused on her. The ministers were also stunned by such a courageous woman. After the shock, they were deeply impressed and sweated for her at the same time. This is amazing
No joke, not even Flame King dared to boast about this. Alas, it’s a pity for a dragon girl who really dedicated her life to their mission. However, she is the reincarnation of a god, so she must be very confident before she dares to set up an army.
Standing still. Deep in their hearts, they expected to see a miracle.
"Okay," Emperor Zong slapped the case and shouted, "It will last for seven days. If Tiandu is not forced to retreat by then, Dragon Girl, don't blame me for being ruthless." Regardless of her identity as Dragon Girl, at this moment
, she brought him an unprecedented sense of oppression. It was unimaginable that this feeling would come from this young woman who was only in her twenties. He would never let this potential threat grow.
"Xuanyun takes the order!" Mai Mai looked directly at the Emperor Zong with determination. He was the direct murderer of Wan Qixun's death, and she would not let him have an easy time. If necessary, she would not mind taking his throne!
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
After retreating from the court, Wan Qiqing ignored the surprise of others and dragged Mai Mai away and pulled him into the garden before standing still. He turned around and stared at her with a gloomy face, "Do you know what you are doing? Issuing a military order?"
Are you tired of living?" His angry tone revealed unconcealable anxiety.
Looking at the man in front of her who had hated her, humiliated herself, and finally treated her sincerely, she actually felt some pity for him. From the conversation Ashang heard, she could tell that he was just a victim who attracted the flames of war. Look.
It seems that she has unlimited glory and is the most favored in front of the emperor, but in fact, she is making wedding clothes for others.
"Speak," Wan Qiqing's face darkened a bit.
"The results are already in front of you. It will only be a waste of time to investigate the reasons." Mai Mai looked at him calmly, "If life is not what you expected, it is better to change its trajectory with your own hands."
Raising an eyebrow, surprised.
Her change was astonishing; was it because of his death?
As if she saw his doubts, Mai Mai slowly turned around and looked at Wei Lan not far away, "You have been sleeping for too long. When you open your eyes, you realize that there is actually a world full of people around you.
Lies and a cold world. However, to me, these are not important. What is important is that I will clean them up little by little."
She felt very strange to him.
The woman who would cry bitterly for her brother and blame herself to the point of considering suicide is gone.
