The Di family are Tuoba Mingge's cronies, and the prince's words directly slap Tuoba Mingge in the face.
The queen raised her eyes to look at him, her eyes full of disappointment.
He couldn't even tell that Xixia was at the end of her strength and was still competing with Tuoba Mingge. If she failed, the prince would be labeled as a lecher, which would reverse the situation where he had the upper hand.
"Daughter of the Di family, please put your mind at ease and walk around with your father more these days. Also listen to the words of the advisers in the palace. Xixia will not be peaceful for long..."
The prince was most afraid of the King of Xixia, so asking him to go and spend more time with his father would simply cost him his life.
The prince said a few words casually and left in a hurry. Even if he couldn't take in the younger daughter of the Di family, he still had the daughter of the Zhang family and the Li family. Now he didn't have Tuoba Mingge weighing on his head, and there were so many people in the court fawning over him.
Naturally, beauty is indispensable in this.
The prince felt that the sky was now clear and the water was clear, and even the ministers in the court were pleased with it.
He just wants to have fun every day. Anyway, he has his father and queen to help him, and he is the only one who can sit on this throne.
But within a few days of the prince's impudence, the gatekeepers of the royal city rushed to deliver a message to the palace.
"Report! Dayan's people are calling in! Now they have arrived at the gate of the royal city..."
"What? Dayan's people are here? Why hasn't any news been spread..."
Too fast!
This is the same thought in everyone's mind.
In the past, Xixia could still dominate Dayan, but now Dayan has a gunpowder bag, plus Guo Zhao, who is good at fighting and brave. With the blessing of the gunpowder bag, they are even more powerful. In just half a month, they quietly
They captured more than a dozen cities at the border, and now even the royal city is within their grasp.
Zhao Jing was not so anxious originally, but he was helpless because he could not sit still since he knew Tuoba Mingge's thoughts about Jiang Miao.
If this man dares to miss his wife, he might not regard his husband as dead!
Shen Yanqing and Guo Zhao went to the palace overnight and discussed a way to capture Xixia. It would have the least casualties and the fastest speed. Perhaps they could capture it when An Yi and Ying Ying were full moon.
And Guo Zhao lived up to his expectations. He stood on a horse in silver armor and pointed his red tassel spear directly at the Xixia Palace City.
"Open the door!"
Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses pressed down on the border, and they stormed into the gate of Xixia's palace.
The people were terrified and huddled in their homes, not daring to come out. They even insulted Tuoba Mingge.
"This fifth prince is a nuisance. He has no ability to provoke Dayan's people. Look, people are coming to the house now."
"I don't want to be a slave to the country's subjugation. The sweet potatoes I planted this year have already borne fruit. The Fifth Princess said that the yield of these sweet potatoes is several hundred kilograms per mu, which is enough for our family to eat. If Xixia is destroyed, will all my land be destroyed?
If it’s gone, we can’t eat the sweet potatoes anymore?”
The common people just want to have enough food and drink, and live a stable life. The last thing they want to see is war. Even at this moment, all he can think about is the few acres of land at home.
"What about the Fifth Princess? Do you know that a series of high-yielding crops such as sweet potatoes, corns, and potatoes were grown by Dayan. Nalan Xinya just stole the seeds from Dayan. These are all grown in Rongning County of Dayan.
Credit to the Lord.”
The man who spoke was a businessman who traveled between Dayan and Xixia. He had no favorable impression of Tuoba Mingge and his wife, but he respected Jiang Miao the most.
Dayan's snacks, fragrant beads and clothes also sold well in Xixia, and he quickly made a fortune by relying on this reselling business.
After hearing what the people around him said, the merchant couldn't help but refute.
"Let me tell you, whether Xixia returns to Dayan, you will be able to grow these high-yielding crops, and Dayan also has various delicacies. If the snack street can be opened to Xixia, you can try hot pot and barbecue.
It’s so fragrant.”
This businessman is very good at eating. Every time he goes back to Dayan, he will eat hot pot for several days to enjoy himself. Xixia food is not only single, but also all kinds of tasteless meat. After eating for a long time, he feels that his whole body has no taste.
the hope of life.
His words successfully diverted everyone's attention. Everyone was attracted by the hot pot and barbecue. Facing the army attacking the city, they actually started talking about delicious food.
"Hot pot is really as delicious as you said. Isn't it just boiled vegetables? My wife has also cooked it, and it has no taste at all..."
"That's because you don't know how to cook it. The hot pot base and seasonings are the best. You'll know after you try it."
His mouth was watering as he spoke, and everyone was a little greedy. Now they were expecting the people from Dayan to come in quickly and open the food street so that they could eat these delicacies.
Fifth Prince's Mansion
Tuoba Mingge has been locked in the study for three days. Except for Nalan Xinya who brought him meals a few times, he scolded anyone who tried to enter.
Jiang Ru was worried, Tuoba Mingge had lost power, and she could no longer rely on this backer. Fortunately, she had made two preparations, and the queen also promised to give her a way to survive.
Jiang Ru took advantage of the chaos and tried to escape, but she was constantly being watched by Nalan Xinya's people. She couldn't even get out of the inner courtyard door, and she was extremely anxious.
When the news came that Dayan was attacking the city, she was shocked.
"How come?"
Hearing that the people coming were Guo Zhao and Yuan Lang, Jiang Ru's face turned even more ugly.
Guo Zhao didn't mention it first, but Yuan Lang had a crush on her when she lied to him that she was a maid. Jiang Ru knew what he was thinking. If nothing happened later, maybe Yuan Lang would let her go.
But now, she betrayed Jiang Zhe and left Aunt Zhao without a child. Jiang Ru didn't dare to think about what would happen if she was caught by Dayan's people.
She couldn't stay in Xixia or Dayan any longer and had to find a place to hide.
However, after Xixia surrendered, Tuoba Mingge's fate was not better. The two of them were now grasshoppers on the same rope, and they had to unite even if they had grudges.
In the evening, Jiang Ru opened the door and entered the study with food. Except for the initial scolding, there was no other sound in the study.
Jiang Ru waited for half an hour before she came out. When Nalan Xinya's people passed the news, she broke a fingernail.
There was bright red blood flowing out from between her fingers, which looked very scary, but it seemed as if she couldn't feel the pain, and her eyes were filled with hatred.
It has come to this point. Tuoba Mingge would rather see that bitch than her. Nalan Xinya is not worth it for herself.
"Master, there is news from the master. He has a way to reconcile you and the fifth prince. If you are willing, let's pack our bags and leave now."
Tuoba Mingge's fall from power is a certainty, and those of them who continue to stay are just accompanying him to death.
Nalan Xinya really liked Tuoba Mingge and was willing to endure the women in the backyard for him, but no matter how much emotion she had, they would slowly wear away, especially the existence of Sannu and Jiang Ru. She couldn't bear it anymore.
