The secret passage of the imperial city is connected to the Minshan Mountain in the western suburbs, and there is a martial arts sect on the Minshan Mountain, which was created by Huan Wuming, the elder brother of the first emperor of Changyue.

Since he was a child, he had no intention of participating in the dispute of imperial power, but was obsessed with martial arts, and finally gave up the glory and wealth of the palace, came to this lonely and quiet Minshan, and founded Wuming Sect.

Although he is separated from the Changyue royal family, Huan Wuming always has the blood of the Changyue royal family, and he can still provide shelter to the people of the royal family.

Inside the main hall of the Wuji Pavilion

"Uncle, the little girl implores you to go out of the mountain to relieve the siege of Changyue!"

Mu Lan knelt beside a blue-robed old man and kept pleading.

And this blue-robed old man was Huan Wuming, I saw him sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, and there was a kind of kindness between his eyebrows.

The smoke of sandalwood around him lingered around his body and slowly rose, giving people an unfathomable feeling.

Seeing that Huan Wuming had not reacted, the queen did not hesitate to kowtow to him over and over again.

"Mother, don't be like this, get up quickly. ”

Xiao Yu on the side looked at Mu Lan's appearance, and couldn't help but feel distressed, and couldn't help but want to help her up, but she was pushed away.

On the other side, General Gao stared at the back of the blue-robed old man, his fists clenched, daring to be angry but not to speak.

Mu Lan was still kneeling on the ground, already weak due to childbirth, and at this time, the toss made it even worse, and the whole person was depressed, and she didn't have the demeanor she should have as the mother of a country.

"Those who should come will always come, and those who should go can't stay, this mortal's worldly grievances, no matter which martial arts sect will not interfere, everything is fate, please cherish the queen. ”

Huan Wuming opened his mouth to speak, and the vicissitudes of life and majestic voice clearly echoed in the hall.

He still sat cross-legged, not even looking away.

Seeing this, Mu Lan wanted to continue pleading, but an inexplicable force lifted her up from the ground.

"The queen doesn't need to ask the old man anymore, the old man has already made it very clear, you can live and recuperate in my Wuming Sect, and the fate of Changyue will be left to it." ”

Because Huan Wuyou is young and vigorous, has been on the throne for a short time, and has an unstable foundation, except for the prime minister who serves him wholeheartedly, the rest of the courtiers have their own ghosts, and now the imperial city has completely fallen into the pocket of the rebels.

Once the rebellion began, it was out of control, and even some of the recent state capitals refused to send troops to help......

Since Huan Wuming refused to relieve the siege of Changyue, the queen and her party have been in Wumingzong for three full days.

"How can this be justified, a bunch of rebellious ministers and thieves!"

General Gao gritted his teeth in anger and slammed the letters refusing to send troops on the table.

These letters were all sent by General Gao with flying pigeons before the evacuation, except for the carrier pigeons sent to the front line, which have not returned.

Mu Lan also read these letters, her eyes were blank, her heart was cold, and she couldn't help but sigh sadly: "I didn't expect that so many generals in the state capital have rebelled, and even my father has surrendered to the rebels. ”

Xiao Yugang put the little prince to sleep, and hurriedly comforted him when he heard this: "Don't be so pessimistic, the emperor will definitely come back to save us." ”

The battle on the front line was finally coming to an end, and Huan Wuyou defeated the enemy in Yeliang, not only driving them out of the territory of Changyue, but also driving straight in, driving the enemy back for nearly thirty miles.

"Your Majesty, the last general thought that the poor Kou Mo was chasing, but now that the night is cold, it has been seriously injured, and our army can still return to the court. After all, His Majesty has not ascended the throne for half a year, and the situation in the court is still a little turbulent, if you fight abroad for a long time, I am afraid it will ......"

General Chen saw that Huan Wuyou had no intention of withdrawing his troops, so he couldn't help but step forward and admonish.

After hearing this, the generals also seconded the proposal.

"Well, Chen Aiqing is right, I decided to let the troops rest for a day first, and then withdraw the next day. ”

Before Huan Wuyou's words fell, an urgent report suddenly came.

"Report!"

I saw a soldier galloping over, holding a letter in his hand, and said breathlessly: "Your Majesty, I received a message from General Gao that Lord Shang Shulin of the Ministry of War has launched a mutiny in the national capital, and the imperial city has fallen......"

"What!"

Huan Wuyou was a little incredulous, his eyes widened, and he snatched the letter and read it.

"This ......"

General Chen on the side was also a little at a loss.

"What a group of rebellious ministers and thieves, relying on the old and selling the old, I should have eradicated all these court tumors in the first place!"

Huan Wuyou said indignantly, tearing the letter to shreds.

"Pass my order, all the commanders on the front line quickly reorganize their armies and fight, immediately return to the imperial city with me, and take down the traitor's head!"

"Obey the order, and the last general will swear to follow Your Majesty to the death!"

General Chen and the commanders did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly rode on their war horses to gather the army.

Huan Wuyou returned to the big account and urgently wrote a letter to the family, asking the soldier who had just delivered the newspaper to bring it back with a flying pigeon.

In the Yeliang camp, Yeliang Guojun You Zhaochen also looked intently at the secret report in his hand at this time, which was sent by the secret agent that Yeliang had planted in Changyue.

After a long time, You Zhaochen raised his sword eyebrows and smiled evilly.

"God really help me, this time I will personally lead the troops! Kill Huan Wuyou, you should give a big gift to Lin Shangshu in Changyue. ”

Hearing this, the generals in the camp couldn't help but talk about it.

I saw a general closest to You Zhaochen stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the last general has the courage to play, now our army is losing and retreating, and its vitality is greatly damaged, in its current form, it may be even more difficult to kill the monarch of Changyue than to ascend to the sky!"

Hearing this, You Zhaochen laughed instead of being angry.

"Hahahaha, Aiqing's words are wrong, now that there is a fire in Changyue's backyard, Huan Wuyou has no time to take care of us. ”

"He relied on his blood and strength to enter my Yeliang territory, and now if he wants to go back, he will definitely make him come and go. ”

"This Immortal Valley is the closest way back to Changyue, in order to solve the urgent need, with his temperament, he will definitely go from here, once he is ambushed, he will definitely die!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

After listening to You Zhaochen's words, the generals also laughed, they were beaten so badly by Changyue, and they were finally able to recover some interest.

It turned out that Yeliang had already sent elite soldiers to ambush in the Wuying Valley, but it was a pity that the Changyue army did not enter the Yeliang Kingdom from there, but now the situation is different, Huan Wuyou has a great possibility to risk passing through the Wuying Valley, how could You Zhaochen let go of this God-given opportunity.

With the sound of the horn of withdrawal, the Changyue army began to retreat.

On the way, Huan Wuyou's brows were tightly locked, and his handsome face showed a worried look.

After a non-stop march, the army finally arrived at the mountain range at the junction of Changyue and Yeliang at noon.

Huan Wuyou rode his horse, stopped and observed for a while, and ordered: "Go from the Valley of the Void!"

"Huh?" General Chen was a little amazed, and hurriedly said: "Please think twice, Your Majesty, this Wuyin Valley has a treacherous terrain and is extremely vulnerable to ambushes by enemy troops. ”

"I know, but this is the only way back to Changchang, and if it takes a detour, it will take another day, and if it is delayed, the situation of the rebellion in the country will be irreversible. Moreover, it is not very likely that Ye Liang came here to set up an ambush before us, and we will definitely be able to pass through the fast march, whether it is life or death, just take a gamble!"

Huan Wuyou said without changing his face, that kind of emperor's self-confidence had to make General Chen surrender.

Eventually, Changyue's army headed towards the Valley of the Deadless.
