Beichang City, the dark blue imperial capital, the city wall looks particularly majestic and solid, but the royal spirit is gloomy.

The day before, the flow of people who had been flowing into the city during the day had disappeared with the night, and an inconspicuous carriage had swayed along the day, and had entered the city half a moment before the gates were closed, and had stopped a few feet from them.

The curtain was lifted, and a young man with a clear face jumped out of the car, turned back and took a few steps back. In the night, he raised his head and stared at the word "Beichang" faintly visible above the city gate. Wan Xing is dressed as an aristocratic and is very worried about the future of Deep Blue. "Childe, it's time for us to go back to the house, and we can rest well when we get to the house. At this time, the attendant Liuzi beside him anxiously urged, probably because he was tired from following Wanxing for a day of travel.

"I want to take a good look at this Beichang City, maybe we will have to wait a long time before we can see it again in the future. Wan Xing's expression seemed to freeze, and he replied.

The attendant touched the back of his neck, smirked and asked, "Childe, aren't you kidding, we have lived here for a long time, how can we leave?" ”

Wan Xing's face did not change in the slightest, and he glanced at the attendant lightly, and did not answer him.

After a while, he waved his hand and decided to go home. As soon as the night market opened, the streets began to gain some popularity, and the horse-drawn carriages passed through the streets and alleys, and soon returned to their homes.

At night, in the royal court in Beichang City, Qingtao slept in his own harem, and suddenly a nightmare woke him up.

In the dream, a scene emerged: in the night sky, the emperor star was shining, the starlight was first gathering, shining on him, he smiled at the dead Canghai, "The light of this emperor star belongs to me, the emperor is mine, hahaha, don't blame me, if I didn't take your throne, my power, identity, and wealth may be slowly deprived with the birth of that kid." I know that my power is all over the government and the opposition, and sooner or later you will get rid of me and clear the way for that boy. "Who knows, after a while, slowly this light disappeared, the emperor star shines again, the starlight reunites, this time releasing the most dazzling light, and the light just shifts to a young man, although he is covered with a hair and can't see his face clearly. The man righteously rebuked angrily: "Deep blue Zhongxing, the thieves should be destroyed! Come to ...... with your life" As soon as the words fell, Sirius, under the man's instructions, led the galaxies to help in the battle. "Ah, what's wrong with this, it's Sirius, how did it run out of so many Sirius, ah...... , help, stop it, I am the master of this empire, glory and wealth can be given to you, don't bite me. The young man held a war knife in his hand, and an invisible sword light swept by, and in an instant he was in a different place.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me" Qingtao was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and kept shouting, the shouts broke the dead silence of the night, and struggled to wake up from the nightmare just now.

"Emperor, what's wrong with you, are you alright? Sleeping beside him was Concubine Rou, who had just come to the dark blue from the Gentiles to pay tribute, and was frightened by his startled action, rubbed her chest with one hand, and hurriedly handed him a handkerchief with the other.

"I, I, I just had a nightmare that I dreamed that a young man had taken away the light of the Emperor Star and wanted to kill me. Now that the world is mine, they will not let me go, and they will still be my enemies. And he shouted to Deep Blue Zhongxing, I suspect that the son of the sea is not dead at all. At first, the inner courtyard was burned to ashes by the sea, and after that, he did not carefully search for the whereabouts of the baby. Maybe he wasn't burned to death, and he was still alive, but how could it be, could it be that I was thinking too much? It shouldn't be, so what's wrong, forget it, I don't want to, it's annoying, it's really annoying, it's really a headache for this emperor!"

"Come on, notify me, tomorrow's court meeting will be canceled. Early tomorrow morning, I will summon Jiuchuan and Jiudou and other generals to come to my inner court to discuss matters. At this moment, Qingtao was completely sleepy, still frightened by the nightmare just now, and decided to cancel tomorrow's court meeting and arrange for his henchmen to come down for a meeting, and needed them to help him solve this trouble.

The next day, the subordinates entered the house one by one and came to the inner court chamber, where there was a long conference table, and everyone found their own place and sat down on both sides. After a sleepless night, although Qingtao was relatively sleepy, he still maintained a dignified expression and came to the conference hall, and the two guards at the door of the hall saw that he was going in, and bowed expressionlessly.

On weekdays, the major issues of the empire are put on the main hall of the royal court, and the inner court meeting hall is a place where Qing Tao and several of his henchmen and generals privately discuss some unsightly and dissident matters, and ordinary capital officials have no chance to come here. As soon as Qing Tao sat down at the main seat of the conference table, he looked at his subordinates with a strange look, and the generals stood up and saluted respectfully.

Qing Tao waved his hand and motioned for them to sit down. Ying Hu, a vicious-looking middle-aged general, took the lead in asking: "Why did the emperor cancel the court meeting today? Summoning a few officials to come to the palace to discuss matters, could it be that the rebels have captured another city." Or do you want to get rid of the newly appointed city lord of Sanchuan City? ”

"Extremely confused, the traitors have not been eradicated yet, if it weren't for the fact that the main force of the dragon camp army guarding the capital was basically sent to rectify the border troubles, they were fighting, and they couldn't return to the division in time to reinforce. Once the Sanchuan City is captured, my capital will have no danger to defend, and the consequences will be unimaginable. Fortunately, there is that kid named Hope and Bai Jie, although he is not my descendant, and that kid is still the son of an old minister of the former dynasty. Although their loyalty to me is not high, they will not ignore the moment of life and death of this empire, and they will create a record of one against five and more with less. Besides, these two people were executed as soon as they made great achievements, and what the city lords of the world will think of me is not all reversed. I'm not so confused that you people took advantage of the chaos to destroy that old immortal with me, but when you really go to the battlefield, you may not be able to win. Let's not mention this matter for now, these two people are currently in the Emperor's possession, and no one should act rashly until they have any abnormal behavior or rebellion. ”

"What the emperor is very worried about, the lower officials are not thoughtful, you are thoughtful, and the lower officials admire it very much......" Ying Hu went on to say a bunch of polite words that were slippery and out of tune: "Yes, those two generals have made great contributions, they are really the gods of war of the empire, and they should be used to make more outstanding military achievements for the empire." They can win battles thanks to the trust and cultivation of adults. ”

Qingtao didn't seem to hear these polite words, and Ying Hu slapped the horse's hooves. Actually, it's also normal, after staying in the position of the supreme ruler of the empire for so long, he has already seen everything clearly, and said: "Okay, don't compliment me, there is only one thing I want to tell you when I summoned you today." That is yesterday I had a nightmare, I dreamed that the old immortal son who died in the fire in the inner court was going to kill me, eighteen years, you still remember the fire in the inner court that year, I suspect that the kid is not dead, this time the five northern cities were captured by the thieves, that kid may be hiding among the thieves, you must be careful. But if he has footprints, cut the grass and eradicate the roots, even if he does not oppose me, he will inevitably be used by people with ulterior motives to threaten me as a banner to rally the subjects of the empire to resist. When the time comes, I hope you will consider for yourself who will protect the glory and wealth of you people, and who will protect the high-ranking officials. Two days ago, I have urgently transferred back the main force of the 30,000 dragon battalion from the front line, who is willing to lead this military order, lead these 30,000 horses, and want to transfer 10,000 horses from Sanchuan City, and today I got the news that several cities in the south led 10,000 troops to the north to Qinwang, and at that time, there will be 50,000 horses and horses to get rid of the traitors. Remember, this time it's not just about getting rid of the traitor, it's about finding that guy and killing him for me, otherwise we don't have a good day to live. ”

Suddenly, at the end of the conference table, there was a general who looked like a scholar, and he stood up, and it was the man Wan Xing from last night. "Emperor, let the young general Wanxing go, I will be lucky not to be dishonored. ”

Everyone turned their heads, only to see his eyebrows changed, his eyes were deep and full of deep wisdom, the beauty was indescribable. But it gives people the feeling of a scholarly spirit, and at a young age, he became a general who can enter and leave the council room. A wave of respect from everyone could not help but arise spontaneously.

Qing Tao, who is arrogant and domineering on weekdays, showed a smile on the corner of his mouth: "Wan Xingjun is really a handsome among people, although you have only been working with me for a few years, but your ability, I still quite trust." In this case, this gentleman will order you to be the marshal of the thief, the kid who has made great achievements in Sanchuan wants to be a pioneer for you, we are all our own people, be more careful in this battle! If you find the kid who wants to kill me, remember to help me cut the grass and eradicate the roots. As he spoke, he made a head-killing gesture with his right hand.

Wan Xing bowed deeply: Yes, Emperor!

The deliberations were soon over, and everyone left their seats. Ying Hu patted Wan Xing's shoulder with a big grin and said: "You kid is so blessed, you have been a staff member for the emperor for a few years, and now you have been promoted to the emperor's favorite general, and you have become a person, you can do it, when will you have time to carry your brothers, and say a few good words in front of the big master." ”

Wan Xing twisted his shoulders, kept a distance from Ying Hu's arm, gave him a disdainful look, and responded: "I'm sorry, I'm not interested in your affairs, please do it yourself." "Anyway, it took a while to let go.

"Don't, don't, you said you don't want to talk to me, I'll just go away. Why don't you get oil and salt, what are you high? Ying Hu laughed and complained.

On the side, Jiuchuan and Jiudou and several other people laughed together, thinking in their hearts: Ying Hu, when your kid also touched a nail, where did his usual majesty go.

On this day, Wan Xing returned home and simply cleaned up his head, and planned to say goodbye to his family in advance.

After dinner, Mrs. Bai Dan asked: "Husband, why did you take the initiative to invite Ying to fight on the front line this time, the battle situation is critical, and besides, you just came to the emperor's side as a staff member at the beginning, just give advice, why go to the battlefield in person to contaminate the blood of that soldier." ”

"Madame, come here, I have something to say to you. ”

The lady leaned her ear over and listened so carefully that she almost didn't scare her eyes.

Wan Xing opened his mouth and said: "Your father, General Bai Jie, is a general of the previous dynasty, and my old father is also a close confidant of the old emperor of the previous dynasty, and the whole clan was slaughtered. I also have a grudge against the old thief. I wanted to lurk for a few years, gain the trust of the old thief, and choose the opportunity to take the life of the old thief. Who knows, today's old thief council discussed the matter of the prince's surviving world, and wanted me to find and get rid of him. I changed my mind to take advantage of the time when I led the army to find out his whereabouts, re-establish him as the emperor, and support him to become powerful, so that I could gain the trust of all places, and then my army turned against the front, entered the capital, and killed the old thief, which can be regarded as avenging my family. ”

Bai Dan: "Husband, have you ever thought about the family in this operation, in case, if you do it, the family will be destroyed again." Although there are only a few people in the house, you have to think about them. ”

Wan Xing: "Madam, I have my own arrangements, and I will wait for the army to start tomorrow." You disguised yourself as a man, joined me outside the city, and arranged for you to be my personal attendant. Unexpectedly, no one would have imagined that the general's wife would disguise herself as a man and go out with the army. Now that I have planned, I have put life and death on the line. Wanxing laughed.

"Good idea, just like this, wouldn't it be too risky, in case that little prince has died in the war, or maybe this is a trap set by the old thief, and he wants you to go to the battlefield to die. Bai Dan asked worriedly.

"It's okay, let's give it a try," Wan Xing said in a firm tone: "I am familiar with military books, and I also have several battlefield experiences, and besides, this expedition is against some rabble, but I am confident." And my purpose is only revenge, and if I can publicly end the life of the old thief, instead of assassination, then I will be relieved. Wan Xing held Bai Dan's hand and said in relief.

"Okay, I'll listen to my husband. Bai Dan said, there was always a feeling of uneasiness in her heart that induced her......
