In the general's mansion, which was temporarily converted into a palace, servants and generals were scurrying around.
The deputy general who came from the capital to report the news covered his chest and vomited several mouthfuls of blood. Even Jiuding was inevitably affected. His cheeks were swollen and high, and Yan Xi slapped his ears back and forth more than a dozen times.
A dark luster flashed across Yan Xi's clouded black face.[
The room was quiet, with generals and civilian officials accompanying the army standing cautiously on the left and right, with a wide passage in the middle, which was reserved for the principals of the chamberlain battalion who were suffering and couldn't escape.
The queen was missing, and there was not even a shadow of the assassin. The thief was probably the leader of the Vulcan Cult, Yun Yan, who had been recovering from his injuries in Prince Rui's Mansion. However, there is no definite evidence yet, and there was not even a shadow of the assassin among the men sent out to pursue him.
See, I walked back and forth around the official road, and all the information I brought back was hearsay.
"Your Majesty, when the two armies are facing each other, the overall situation should be the most important thing. I believe that although the Queen has fallen into the hands of the leader of the Vulcan Cult, her life is not seriously affected. It is better to temporarily send someone to inquire about the news and wait for the current war to stabilize before making long-term plans.
." As soon as he finished speaking, his body also flew out. Fortunately, he was standing far away from Yan Xi, so he was only hit by the wind brought by the emperor's cuffs and fell out of the door.
Jiuding casually wiped the blood stains on his lips with his cuffs, knelt down on one knee, and said, "I will personally lead people to find her now, and I will definitely bring the Queen back intact." In this way, the merit was reduced to the crime.
Yan Xi did not agree. He turned around and turned his back to the courtiers. His straight back showed the ups and downs of his mood. His voice, which had no warmth in it, was even colder. "My queen will save herself." He pulled it off.
The military armor he wore was thrown aside casually, "The second prince, Yan Rong, is ordered to command the army, and all the generals will obey his orders."
The dumbfounded generals had no time to stop this sudden change, so they followed the crowd and knelt down at Yan Xi's feet, opening and closing their lips but still unable to think of the right words to stop him.
The second prince, Yan Rong, led a team of people to sneak into the Lu Kingdom in the morning to collect information but failed to return. The emperor could not tolerate others' persuasion and was only concerned about the missing queen.
No one pays attention to tomorrow's battle that is crucial to victory or defeat.
