Each of them was injured, and their armors were stained with blood. But everyone's eyes were bright.
They won this battle.
Fulfill your duties, be loyal to the emperor, and fulfill your mission.
"Thank you for your hard work."
"No, it's not hard..."
"This is where my subordinates have their responsibilities."
Ye Moyan's words made several people a little excited.
"Emperor, please enter the city."
Suddenly, a golden light flew from the sky.
It's a spiritual message.
Ye Mu took it and his face changed slightly after reading it.
"Emperor..."
"What's the matter?"
Ye Mu handed over the spiritual letter, "News came from the imperial capital. Lord Fuji announced... that the wedding was cancelled."
Everyone present was shocked.
Today is the emperor's wedding.
However, due to the sudden invasion of demons, the event could not be held as scheduled.
Just canceling the wedding, they guessed, was definitely not the emperor's intention.
Then... it's Fu Ji's decision.
This generation of emperors drafted decrees, and the most serious ones were the following crimes, ignoring the etiquette of the monarch and his ministers, which was a major crime to punish the nine tribes!
Although the emperor left all major domestic affairs to Fu Ji, it did not mean that he could make decisions over the emperor.
"Emperor, calm down!"
The generals of Zi Rong suddenly knelt down and said, "The Prime Minister did not mean to do it, but he did it as a last resort to appease people's hearts. Please remember the Prime Minister's many years of hard work and spare him this time."
"Yes, please give me a lighter sentence, considering that he has worked hard for so many years without any merit."
The generals were not shielding him, but they knew in their hearts that the Prime Minister was loyal, even if his behavior was wrong, his actions must be for the future of the emperor and Fanxu.
Ye Mu and Ye Ru stood there and did not plead for mercy like them.
Because as 'night ghosts', they will only be loyal to the emperor, no matter when, where or under what circumstances.
"Get up."
I originally thought that Ye Moyan would be furious, but he just said this lightly without any anger on his face.
Several people looked at each other, and for a moment, they didn't dare to move.
"The emperor has spoken. Generals, please get up quickly."
Ye Mu was actually a little surprised.
Because this time, he didn't feel that his master was angry.
Zi Rong and others also reacted quickly and were overjoyed.
As long as the emperor is not angry, it will be fine.
"Emperor, since the wedding has been cancelled, the princes and nobles from various countries who came to the banquet..."
"Who said the wedding was cancelled?"
Suddenly, Ye Moyan's next words made several people startled again.
"Don't cancel? But in the current situation, even if the emperor rushes back, it is already too late. What's more, there was a bloody disaster today..."
The meaning is obvious. We have just experienced a big war, with blood floating around and corpses scattered everywhere. It is really taboo.
Especially an imperial wedding, how can it be so hasty?
"The wedding is as usual, right here."
"What?!"
"What?!"
Several people's expressions changed drastically.
"Emperor, think twice! How can a state wedding be held here... How can a state wedding be held here? An imperial wedding must strictly follow the rules passed down by our ancestors. We must worship heaven and earth at the Temple of Heaven in the palace, worship the ancestral temple, and invite gods and Buddhas. This place... is in a mess.
How can it be used as a wedding venue for an emperor when corpses are everywhere and it is so filthy?"
"Yes, the most taboo thing about a wedding is a disaster of blood and light, let alone an emperor's wedding. Please think twice!"
"Dirty?" The emperor looked at the surroundings, "Those who fell here are all my soldiers of Fanxu. They tried their best to protect their home and country, and they gave up their bones for the sake of the peace of their home and country."
"A son of Zhengzheng, whose soul is lost in heaven and earth, how can he be filthy?"
Just a few words shocked a few people.
His eyes couldn't help but turn red.
"Emperor..."
"If the emperor insists on doing this, please wait a moment and let me take a bath and purify myself, so as not to stain this happy day."
Zi Rong's rough voice was choked with sobs. No one understood the cruelty of war and the grief at this moment better than them.
Because those who fell were all their beloved subordinates and loyal soldiers.
For countless years, they were stationed in the border town, enduring the raging wind and sand, being lonely and cold, without complaining. Now, in their prime years, the best years of their lives, they were wrapped in horse leather and died on the battlefield.
Many are only as old as their children.
They are sad and heartbroken.
It's just that as generals and those in high positions, they must be loyal to the emperor and patriotic. As long as their superiors give orders, they will not say a word even if it costs them their lives.
But it will hurt in the end.
But now the emperor's words let them know that their sacrifice was meaningful.
The people they follow are worthy of their sacrifice.
What could excite them more than this?
"No need."
Ye Moyan said, "That's good."
Under the excited faces of the old generals of Zi Rong, he looked back faintly, where, on the back of the tall gryphon, the slender figure of a woman came into view...
****
Ling Xuewei was in a daze, and she heard someone yelling, "No! I don't agree! You brat, you're going too far! Which house do you think marries a girl like this? They don't even have a decent betrothal gift or marriage, etc."
How aggrieved does this girl feel when she wakes up?"
Grandpa Magpie?
"Today, she has to get married even if she wants to get married. She has to get married even if she doesn't want to get married."
Then a quiet and domineering voice came, almost ringing close to Ling Xuewei's ears.
"You brat, you've rebelled..."
My ears are buzzing, what's going on?
What to marry or not to marry?
Suddenly Ling Xuewei remembered what happened before she fell into coma. She was knocked unconscious by Ye Moyan.
Oops!
Yunlinhua!
The poison of Yemoyan has not been cured yet!!
"Ye Mo Yan!"
Ling Xuewei suddenly opened her eyes, stood up and then fell heavily to the ground!
My whole body felt like it was falling apart.
"Girl, are you awake?"
Ye Xiutian looked surprised, Ling Xuewei looked up in confusion, "Grandpa Magpie?"
"Hey, it's me, how are you now? Where do you feel uncomfortable?"
Ling Xuewei shook her head, and just as she was about to get up, a sharp pain suddenly came from her feet, causing her to sit back on the ground again.
"ah!"
"What's wrong, girl?"
Ling Xuewei's face turned pale and she was holding her ankle. It seemed that she had accidentally twisted it just now.
But where did she fall from?
Suddenly, Ling Xuewei's eyesight dimmed, and before she could react, she was hugged sideways.
The arms holding her were very strong, and a familiar smell rushed into her nose. She raised her head and stared blankly at Ye Moyan in front of her.
"What? I don't know you anymore?"
Ye Moyan's voice was strong and his handsome face remained expressionless.
Ling Xuewei said "Ah", and suddenly thought of something, and struggled hastily, "Put me down quickly! I can walk by myself!"
Ye Moyan was injured, how could he hug her?
Right!
And his poison!
"How are you now? Put me down first."
Ling Xuewei struggled like a loach, Ye Moyan frowned and let her go.
"That's right, stuff!"
Ling Xuewei hurriedly searched in her arms, but after a long time, she still couldn't find it, and her face suddenly turned pale in worry. (To be continued)
