Yan Fu, the city of rest.

In the palace, Chai Longxiang sat on the throne, staring blankly at the sandalwood lit on the pedestal, the smoke under his eyes, at this time the palace was completely devoid of the bell chime, the music was melodious, and he was angry that he had just repelled all the ministers and palace maids, he looked very tired, and his heart seemed to stop beating at any time.

There is a golden silk nanmu plaque hanging on the top of the red vermilion lacquer gate of Dazheng, and there are four big characters inscribed on it, "make great efforts", these four words seem to mock him, ridicule his indiscretion, and ridicule his powerlessness.

Since Ye Yunpeng led the 40,000 defeated troops back from Gentian Pass, the emperor has never convened any ministers to discuss the war, nor has he seen anyone, except tonight.

After the defeat of the first battle of Gentian Pass, the current Yan Fu is full of a kind of atmosphere of flying separately when the catastrophe comes, although the rest of the city has not been affected by the war, many high-ranking families have fled to the south of the continent, hoping to enter the Central Plains Qingguo to seek refuge, for the war between Yan Fu and Yinguo, Qingguo maintains an attitude of watching the fire from across the shore, neither to help Yan Fu, nor to get a piece of the pie.

Those Yan Fu nobles who were on the way to escape all held a heart that as long as they did not die, Yan Fu still had the heart to rise, completely ignoring the abuse of Yan Fu and Li Min, in order to enter the Qingguo frontier, they even did not hesitate to give their beautiful concubines and maids to the Qingguo border soldiers, and in order to save their lives, they could even sell their daughters and wives, not to mention gold and silver. His Majesty the Emperor did not stop these people from leaving, allowing them to leave this war-torn land, and the once prosperous city of rest is now as silent as a dead city, and every household is crying.

"Do you think we have a chance to make peace with them?" The emperor turned his head and asked the young man on the side, the young man known as Cheshire immediately knelt on the ground, his eyes were flustered but his voice was firm: "The Yanfu people never talk and never surrender when they encounter war, this is the rule set by the ancestors, has Your Majesty forgotten?"

"I really forgot, I actually let a child remind me ......," the emperor laughed at himself.

"Cheshire, can you do me a favor?"

"Your Majesty, please say that the minister will not fail in his mission. The boy stood up with his hands on his mouth.

"Now that we can't rely on the people of Shuyue, I ordered you to go to Huaiquan and Linyang overnight, so that those two vassal kings, my relatives, ...... I have allowed them to lead troops into the imperial capital and guard the royal city......" the emperor said in a trembling voice.

"Your Majesty, my father they ......"

"Go quickly, let your father Chai Dong leave the army, there is no reason!" The emperor finally lowered his head: "Now that the troops in the imperial city have been sent to Gentian Pass, only 5,000 troops are left in the city, General Ye has not woken up since he returned from injury, those princes are in charge of tens of thousands of soldiers, don't you need to use them at this time? Instead of letting the people of the Yin country break us apart in one breath, it is better to try to join forces and fight with them!"

Cheshire nodded: "I understand, I will go and persuade my father." ”

The emperor sighed: "I don't know if your father is willing to help us, maybe I will hold you in my hands and blackmail your father, maybe there will be a chance, but I don't want to talk to my blood relatives like this, and you will talk to your father and them, which is also my sincerity." The emperor put his hand on his shoulder as he spoke: "My father once demoted your father to Huaiquan as a vassal king, and during my reign, I was worried that your father would rebel and ask you to go to me to be a proton, your father has a grudge against me, I understand, now Yan Fu is experiencing a catastrophe, we need the strength of everyone." ”

"All these years have kept you away from your loved ones...... It must be very tiring to come to this cold palace as a proton. The Emperor squeezed his shoulder hard.

"I am Your Majesty's person, Your Majesty regards me as his own, the minister does not dare to have any complaints, I can contribute to Yan Fu, for Your Majesty, it is not a pity for the minister to die!" The young man kowtowed vigorously, and the emperor hurriedly helped him up, smiling tiredly: "I really hope that we can survive this catastrophe, and when the princess grows up a little more, I will marry her to you." ”

Cheshire was startled, and just wanted to kneel down but was clenched by the emperor's arms: "You have the blood of the Chai royal family, I can only rely on you now, if your father does not come to the city of rest with the army, everyone in the city will rest in peace!"

"I am willing to die for Your Majesty, and I will not give up!" the young man swore a poisonous oath.

"You set off now, in order to avoid the wind, I can't arrange anyone for you, you must pay attention to your own safety, bring this jade medallion with you, if any Yan Yu soldiers dare to stop you, you will hand this jade medal to them." The Emperor tore off the jade pendant from his waist and stuffed it into his hand, helping him clench his fists.

"Your Majesty take care of your body, my father's army will definitely come to the City of Rest to help Your Majesty, please rest assured!" the young man knelt down heavily, wiped his tears and left.

When he walked to the gate, he stopped, and looked directly at the emperor's shadow, for the first time, for the first time, he felt that his majesty was so weak: "Does your majesty really want to let me go home?

"Then you can live, the goal of the Yin army is the city of rest, if your father does not send troops to stop them, their iron hooves will not step into Huaiquan. The emperor slowly walked to the throne: "You can live and live, you have done enough, if the heavens really want Yan Fu to perish, then I will sit here, waiting for them to cut off my head!"

With that, he walked up the steps and sat down heavily on the throne.

Wang Xi soared into the sky, and a white rainbow soared upward!

The young man flicked his sleeves and knelt down again before the king.

"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

......

......

The emperor dragged the heavy son back to the palace, heard the footsteps outside the palace, the queen sat on the side from the side in a golden silk dragon chrysanthemum nightgown, the two looked at each other, the emperor smiled stiffly, and finally sat at the queen's feet, hugging

Touching her thighs, smelling the body fragrance on the woman, tears slowly fell: "Queen, I'm really useless...... I shouldn't have believed in the poisonous snake of Tantai Ninghua...... We lost. ”

The queen lowered her head and hugged her husband's son, her eyelashes blinked, and she said softly: "Don't say that, it's not your fault." ”

"It's my fault, I'm sorry for you and my daughter...... I'm going to send you and Scalefish to Qingguo...... I ......"

The queen trembled, and her beautiful face was full of sadness: "Don't say that, my daughter and I won't go there, just stay by your side." ”

"I told Cheshire to ask his father to send troops...... But I know that his father wouldn't have sent an army to help us...... But I can just let that child live, and staying in Sabbath now is a dead end...... We will be broken through by them, just as they are in the west. The emperor's voice was full of fear, and the queen stroked his face and smiled easily: "Do you remember the time when we went to Luoxia Mountain with the imperial brothers when we were children?"

"Of course I remember, why do you say this?" the Emperor smiled reluctantly, not knowing the meaning of the Empress's words.

"When you were a child, you couldn't see anything, I kept holding your hand and walking up the mountain, but the two of us were separated from the royal brother, I was very scared, but you kept holding me and saying don't be afraid, don't be afraid...... Then a wild wolf ran out of the bushes and glared at us, you are also a child, but you have always protected me, the wolf pounced on your calf, but you held on to me and refused to let go...... When the guards heard the sound, they rushed to kill the wolf with an arrow, and you still hugged me......" The queen said softly, her eyes flashing with memories.

"You are my sister, who do I protect if I don't protect you? I used to be blind, and I couldn't do anything but hold you tight when I was in danger...... I can only hold you tight, because I'm scared too. ”

"You're the bravest man I've ever met, really ......"

The emperor scratched his head: "I can't lead troops to fight, and I can't even give me this royal breath from my father, maybe I really inherited this royal breath, so I feel that I am slightly worthy of you." ”

The queen held his face, the warm fragrance of her palm penetrated into his nose, making his heart tremble, and he hugged his wife gently, and the two fell on the couch, and the queen faced the face that was close at hand: "Dragon appearance...... I have never had anyone but you and my daughter, not even my father, we were born into the family of the emperor, and this family gave me everything, gold, jewelry, brocade clothes, jade food...... Even power, but also took away a lot of things from us, mother, dear, warmth...... But the gods and Buddhas have brought you to my side, and there is another person in this world who is the same as me, and we enjoy the same happiness and bear the same pain, so that I will no longer be lonely. The Queen's voice trembled.

Her tears fell on the brocade quilt, and she slowly closed her eyes and cried: "I was very scared when I saw you covered in blood that time...... I once dreamed that you fell in the palace with blood and you were going to die...... No matter how much I shake you, you didn't wake up, and I was afraid that day would come

, you're going to die, I'm the only one left in the world......"

"Don't leave me and my daughter behind......" she choked.

"I won't, I won't let you live alone, we still have a daughter, if we are gone, what should she do, she is only ten years old this year!" He stroked the queen's back: "Now I want to give it a go, only if I can block the Yinguo Iron Horse, what if I don't be the emperor after that! I only want you and my daughter, do you believe that I can do it? I am yours, do you believe in me?"

The queen nodded: "We can live in peace and security, until we die, with a group of children and grandchildren." ”

The emperor looked at him silently, he felt that his gaze was about to melt into the eyes of the woman, he really wanted to stay in this warm room forever, ignoring the war and artillery fire outside, the life and death of the people of Yan Yu weighed on his shoulders, and he would be tired at any time.

I can't sleep here...... How good it should be, the queen noticed her husband's loss, and slowly kissed his face, the breath on it was vague, Chai Longxiang hugged the queen's waist, this woman is his, it will always be his, once he thinks that if the people of the Yin country attack and take this manmiao son from his arms, he is like a unwilling roar in his heart, how can you fail, you want to destroy them, destroy the army of the Yin country! Can you bear the feeling that your woman is taken away and played with all night, and you are a slave for generations?

Destroy their army at all costs! Even if you stake the lives of all Yan Furen, you must save her in front of you.

He slowly untied the queen's belt, and at this moment the queen held his wrist and exhaled like an orchid in the emperor's ear.

"Your Majesty, I am pregnant. ”

The emperor let go of his hand in surprise and stood up, the empress silently pulled down his head and pressed it against his abdomen, the emperor even felt that he could hear the beating of the little heart inside, and the muddy blood made the top of his head gather and disperse, the empress chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, this is a boy." ”

"How do you know it's a boy?"

"I'm his mother, of course I do. The queen raised her delicate nose and said proudly: "I really hope that after he is born, he can be like his father." ”

"He won't be the same as me, he'll have the same bright eyes as a normal person, and when he grows up, he can get on a horse and fight the enemy. "The emperor deceived himself if they could win the Yinguo people.

"He will be like his father, his own relatives, and he will be a good emperor in history. ”

The emperor looked at his wife's face and felt a warm current surging in his heart.

"Does Your Majesty want to see him?" the Empress's voice surged with a hint of warmth, the Emperor smiled, the two kissed again and then together, in the lingering sound of men and women, an extremely terrible thought came from Chai Long's heart, and he was determined to protect his women and children.

At all costs.
