Gu Xilai looked at the team with a complicated look in his eyes. Tianji Palace was Jiao Li's hard work, how could he let Xuanyuan Mu trample on it at will? Besides, is getting the throne really more important than living happily?
Closing his eyes and not thinking anymore, Gu Xilai turned around and said majestically: "All dead soldiers listen to my order and retreat to Tianji Palace."
"Yes!" The magnificent answer resounded throughout the sky.
…
Xuanyuan Mu's withdrawal represents the end of a battle. No, it is not the end yet. On the contrary, it is just the beginning.
Xuanyuan Si, who was responsible for guarding these city gates, knew very well that Xuanyuan Mu was definitely not someone who would give up.
When he heard that Xuanyuan Mu had retreated forty miles, he was not as eager to rejoice as other generals. Instead, he was worried.
I still remember that Xuanyuan Mu gave him a meaningful look when he left. That look clearly said, Xiao Qi, we'll see.
"Xiao Qi, I heard that you defeated Xuanyuan Mu with just an iron net?" the emperor asked Wen Tun, who was lying on the hospital bed.
Xuanyuan Si is almost like the emperor. They are both people who rely on soup and medicine every day. While putting the empty soup bowl back into the wooden plate, he said: "How can such a good thing happen? There is something wrong internally in Xuanyuan Mu. In order to stabilize the situation,
To preserve the morale of the troops, we withdrew."
"Haha, damn boy, you have learned to be humble." The emperor smiled. Compared with others, he, the emperor, did not feel embarrassed at all when he was surrounded by others.
Xuanyuan Si couldn't help but be in awe of the emperor. He didn't think his father was good at all before, but now it seems that Jiang is indeed very old.
"Did Xuanyuan Mu secure all the checkpoints leading out of the city?" Emperor Xuanyuan turned to look at him and asked.
Xuanyuan Si nodded: "Yes, the spies tried every means to send the message, but there was no way."
Xuanyuan Mu also knew that once Yan Hui learned of this, he would have a hard nut to crack on the road to rebellion. So he lied that the mountain road collapsed, temporarily stopped entering and exiting, and then placed countless spies at various levels.
At present, not even a mosquito can fly into the imperial city.
"Xuanyuan Mu wants to trap us to death." The emperor sighed deeply and said meaningfully.
Xuanyuan Si slowly picked up the silk scarf and wiped the concoction from the corner of his mouth: "Even a blind person can see it, but it won't last long."
Emperor Xuanyuan glanced at his son: "How do you say this?"
"Father, think about it, ten days and a half is enough. If it exceeds one month, Yan Hui's temper will definitely arouse suspicion. Therefore, Xuanyuan Mu can only trap us for a month at most."
Emperor Xuanyuan smiled again. He had indeed seen the right person. This seventh child, who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun every day, was quite useful at the critical moment.
"Can you defend this imperial city for a month?" Emperor Xuanyuan put away his smile and asked seriously.
Xuanyuan Si replied decisively: "No."
Even without the Heavenly Halberd Palace, Xuanyuan Mu had more than twice the number of people in his hands. This time they were lucky enough to win, but it didn't mean anything.
"But I need you to stop him now, at least for a month."
A month? Xuanyuan Si twitched the corners of his mouth. If it really took a month, his bones could be used to beat drums.
"Father, if I'm like this, you want me to stay here for a month?" Xuanyuan Si opened his arms and looked at his old father panting.
Emperor Xuanyuan's eyes widened: "Then why don't you look at me?"
