Chapter 386: The dog jumps over the wall in a hurry
The emperor has recently been seeing a doctor and taking medicine, while working hard to keep the harem wet and dry.
His body was hollowed out and he became increasingly weak. In addition, Zhang Cairen's child was not saved after all, and he gave birth to another stillborn child.
The emperor felt a little discouraged. When the news came from the northwest that the Xiling army was approaching Daqi, he made a decision that no one expected.
"Pass the imperial edict, as long as Xiling doesn't attack the imperial army, don't worry about them."
The ministers immediately knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, you must not do this."
"If they are not of my race, their minds will be different. Allowing them to come in will cause great danger."
"Even if the regent is heading towards Yan Nan, there is a high probability that he will catch them all in one fell swoop in the end."
"Your Majesty, please take back your order."
The emperor sat on the dragon throne without saying a word. He was already like this. What happened to the world and what did it have to do with him?
Several veterans of the Taifu almost took the lead in remonstrating, but unfortunately the emperor was not swayed.
The last few people staggered away, and the Taifu couldn't help but sigh, "It's God who wants to destroy me."
"Haha, I think it's your own fault. You're going to die." A young minister couldn't help complaining.
"In the end, we still have to rely on the Zhennan Palace, which the royal family despises and suppresses. Once King Luo cannot withstand it, Daqi will end up being trampled by the alien cavalry."
The Taifu had served the country and the people all his life, and could not watch Daqi go down like this. He raised his head and looked at the sky, "I am asking to see the Empress Dowager."
The Empress Dowager, who was hiding away from the world in the temple, received him. The Tutor requested, "The Great Qi is in danger. Please help the Empress Dowager to turn the tide."
The Queen Mother held a string of Buddhist beads in her hand and asked calmly, "Why did my daughter and son-in-law die? Your Majesty will not forget it, right?"
The imperial court indeed owed a lot to the eldest princess and King Zhennan. The Taifu bowed deeply and said, "Please also ask the Queen Mother to think about the people."
The Queen Mother sneered, "We have been kidnapped by this sentence, and we are helpless to watch our loved ones leave again and again."
"The emperor can ignore others, but I am a seventy-year-old old woman, so please don't embarrass me."
Facing the empress dowager's penetrating eyes, the master sighed, "I am the one who made things difficult for me."
"The general trend of the world is not something you and I can control." The Queen Mother advised.
As soon as the emperor's decree came out, all parties could not sit still.
Fu Jingchao slapped the table directly, "Does he have any brains? He thinks that the imperial court can benefit by bringing in the Xiling Army to deal with Yan Nan!"
"Without ten years of cerebral thrombosis, I wouldn't be able to do such a thing!"
Everyone in the study room was scolding them like crazy. They expected that facing the Xiling Army and the imperial court, they might not make any big move to check and balance Fu Jingchao, but they didn't expect that they would be so mad.
The situation is complicated. Once the hundreds of thousands of troops from Xiling are allowed to march straight in, the entire Daqi capital of Yannan will be in danger.
Shen Xingwan really got a headache from being angry for a moment. He finally got to where he is now. The situation that was originally good was about to fall short when he met a dog emperor.
"What's going on over there in Fosang?" Shen Xingwan asked, looking at the map on the table.
"Li Xi has personally brought an army of 200,000 and has already set off. The 50,000 troops I have taken away have also returned to Yanbei for reinforcements." Fu Jingchao pointed at the map.
This sentence seems unintelligible at the moment.
Shen Xingwan stared at the map for a long time, then suddenly asked, "How is General Northwest like?"
"He is a good general, devoted to the country and the people, and a good fighter in war." Fu Jingchao commented.
If he can be sent to garrison the northwest, his ability will definitely not be too bad.
Shen Xingwan sighed, looked at the candlelight and said leisurely, "If he still has some brains and conscience, he will not follow the emperor's nonsense."
"Who dares to disobey the emperor's orders?" the military advisor sighed.
Shen Xingwan narrowed his eyes and said, "Isn't there another saying that says, "Generals who receive military orders from abroad will receive and receive disapproval."
If the northwest side is not handled well, Xiling will always be a serious problem.
"General Zhou, you shouldn't be so confused." Fu Jing said.
Shen Xingwan couldn't stay any longer, she said, "I want to go back to Yannan right away."
Fu Jingchao didn't agree with her leaving. She couldn't reverse the battle with a large army, not to mention the current situation was dangerous.
The two went back to the room to talk alone. Fu Jingchao reached out and touched her face, "Since you are here, please stay with me."
Shen Xingwan also thought that it would be safer not to stay with him.
But she can't.
"Yannan has my family and friends. I can't just watch them fall into danger and do nothing."
She had to go this time.
Moreover, she wanted to go to the northwest to meet with General Zhou. It would be great if some agreement could be reached.
"Hurry up and capture this area and join forces with Brother Fu. I will try my best to defend Yannan for you. Everything will be fine." Shen Xingwan said firmly.
After reaching this point, they have no retreat and can only overcome all difficulties and move forward.
Fu Jingchao hugged her and said, "It will be okay. We will definitely win. When this war is over, we will get married."
This hug carries a strong meaning of farewell.
Walking out of the door, the two of them looked determined and omnipotent.
The more this happens, the more stable they must be as the backbone. If they are all afraid, how can the people below believe they can win?
The farewell came faster and more hastily than planned.
Fu Jingchao immediately ordered the three armies to set off for the next city tomorrow morning.
Shen Xingwan also started to bring people to prepare things for the journey, including dry food.
Things developed so fast that Governor Wen immediately came to visit after receiving the news.
Fu Jingchao was not seen at all and was politely invited out.
When he returned to the palace, he couldn't help but sigh, "The emperor made a wrong move. It seems that King Luo will leave with his troops tomorrow."
Wen Ruying, who was listening on the sidelines, breathed a sigh of relief.
Prefect Wen still felt it was a pity. Wen Ruyingdu had come to visit him, and maybe he could have made further progress with a little more time.
Prince Wen smiled and said, "This is a good thing now. The Xiling army is pressing on the border. Who knows whether King Luo can resist it."
If he can resist, then this Daqi will be in King Luo's possession sooner or later. If he can't resist, it can only be said that he has no fate.
"You're right, we really need to wait and see." Wen Taishou nodded.
Wen Ruying didn't say a word, and it was difficult to distinguish the feeling in her heart. In the face of such a thing, they were still immersed in calculations.
Wen Ruying thought of the strength and courage of the Wen family in history, and could only say that times have changed, things have changed, and the Wen family of today is no longer the Wen family of the past.
The next day, Wen Ruying specially led people to stand on the hillside early in the morning, looking at the only way for the army to leave the city.
The sun had just risen when she saw a group of people riding out of the city. She recognized the leader at a glance as Shen Xingwan.
She said with some envy, "It's great, you can do so many things."
About a quarter of an hour later, the army also left the city.
