Although Tang Lang is not proficient in the twists and turns of these officialdoms, he can obviously feel that the other party took the initiative to show favor, prudently put away the jade pendant, and nodded in thanks: "Guard Li treats Tang Lang so well, I will remember it." If there is any use for me in the future, even if Guard Li speaks, I will never refuse!"

After this incident, the guards surnamed Li did not delay any longer, and went out of the barracks with Tang Lang to say goodbye to each other, and then returned to the palace to find Prince Jiayun to return to his life, Tang Lang also hurried back to the residence of the Royal Academy, ready to leave immediately.

Cang Lei and everyone were anxiously waiting in the room, although Tang Lang was only more than half an hour before and after, but for everyone it was no less than living like a year, seeing him turn around, they immediately surrounded him to inquire about the situation.

Tang Lang roughly recounted the information he heard from Zhao Jiayun, and everyone was even more worried after hearing it.

"Brothers, teachers, almost all of you have family and friends trapped in the city, although I don't know in what direction the battle will be played out in the future, but I think that with the dean and so many teachers and students from the academy defending the city together, it should not be possible to break the city soon, plus the kingdom army is about to be launched, the odds of victory are at least five or five. ”

Tang Lang first stabilized everyone's mood and continued: "I have already obtained the position of a military soldier, I can lead a scout team to return to Canglei to spy on the enemy, everyone who is willing to take a step forward with me is ready to set off now, but never be reluctant, after all, what will happen to the two armies at war, no one can guarantee." ”

Jiang Dali didn't squeak, but just moved his steps to stand behind Tang Lang to make a statement, and the rest of the people all expressed their willingness to be with Tang Lang, only Li Xinjue smiled bitterly: "I also want to go, but now I can't see anything but drag everyone down, I choose to stay and set off with the army!"

Xing Yizhi and several other teachers also said that they wanted to return to Canglei to fight the enemy with the academy, Ji Fengyu spread his hands: "Then it's decided! Lao Shu stayed behind to take care of Xiao Lizi, and the rest of the people set off immediately! This trip is uncertain, everyone should have their own destiny!"

Doctor Shu Jiaxiang's family members also had no news in the academy, and they were also like arrows, but Li Xinjue really needed someone to stay and take care of him, although he was extremely reluctant, he could only do so, Ji Fengyu specially instructed: "Lao Shu, don't worry, as long as I can find a way to return to the academy, I will definitely contact your family as soon as possible to ensure their safety." ”

"Now that everyone has made up their minds, let's go back and pack our belongings, travel as light as possible, and set off in half an hour. Tang Lang saw that everyone had decided, so he asked everyone to prepare.

When everyone dispersed, he wrote a few words on a blank piece of paper and sealed it in an envelope, and walked into Li Xinjue's room: "Xinjue, after we leave, Filipino will definitely come to me, you give her this letter, and tell her to wait for me here with peace of mind, no matter what happens, I will definitely come back to her!"

Li Xinjue smiled lightly: "Captain, you really have two hits, and the princesses of the kingdom have been taken down by you, which is really a good fortune!"

Tang Lang was originally heavy-hearted, but he turned his worries into joy when he interrupted like this: "Brother Mantis, I am suave, graceful, loved by everyone, and ...... flowers bloom."

Li Xinjue listened, and his expression became even more relaxed: "This is the Tang Lang I am familiar with! Only if you maintain strong enough self-confidence can you bring the team members back to Canglei safely." Captain, don't let me down!

Here, I'll help you explain. ”

"Good brother, you also take care, we will see you in Canglei, see you or leave!" Tang Lang also reflected Li Xinjue's intentions, since he knew that Canglei was in turmoil, his heart was a little heavy, his words and deeds were a little messy, if he went on the road with this mentality, it was inevitable that something would happen, fortunately, Li Xinjue, who was as careful as a hair, reminded him that he woke up and regained his faith.

Half an hour was coming, and the group left the Royal Academy and set out on their way home, the news of the war was still kept secret from the civilians, but the atmosphere in the Imperial City had begun to become tense, and there were two or three times more guards patrolling the streets than before, and occasionally cavalry roared by. Some sensitive businessmen or wealthy people seem to have sensed something, and have begun to secretly hoard grain, spiritual herbs, and pills.

With the "warrior" nameplate in Tang Lang's hand, the people of Canglei quickly went out and walked north, the tall walls of the imperial city still looked majestic under the sunlight, hoping that this time the Tianqing Kingdom could also turn the corner and restore a peaceful life.

Tang Lang turned around and glanced at the outline of the imperial city that was about to disappear in the distance, collected his mood, and continued to speed up the pace of Xunfeng under his feet, and the rest of the people also cast martial arts or spells, and hurried forward in the direction of Canglei at full speed.

A huge sand table was placed in the center of the main hall in the palace, and Canglei City had been marked separately, Zhao Tianze looked at the sand table without saying a word, but his clenched fists and muscles burst out, obviously he was about to suppress the anger in his heart.

"Emperor, it is really unwise to transfer the defenders from the rest of the states! At present, the movement of the Dark Flame Army is unknown, if the armaments of the various states are rashly transferred, it will lead to the emptiness of the place, and if the Dark Flame Army suddenly moves, the whole situation will be even more passive. An old minister with gray hair stood on the side of the sand table and pointed out the battle situation, completely ignoring Zhao Tianze's feelings.

"Hmph!" Zhao Tianze snorted coldly: "In this way, Hui Qing means to keep the status quo untouched, so that Canglei City and even Changping Prefecture will all fall into the clutches of the Dark Flame." I can't even protect my own territory and people, so what's the use of me, the emperor, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty?"

The old minister just now was Hui Wenbo, the minister of the king's affairs, and he didn't panic after listening to the emperor's question: "Emperor, Tianqing and Dark Flame have fought no less than dozens of times, and the power of Tianqing alone cannot shake Dark Flame One or Two. The Dark Flame Empire is known as 100,000 iron hooves, and now it only dispatches 30,000 horses, and the rest of the army does not know its intentions at all. ”

"Presumptuous!" Zhao Tianze could no longer suppress his anger, and roared loudly: "The dignified Tianqing is actually to rely on people to breathe and rely on the strength of outsiders to calm down the civil strife, this emperor will never allow it! No matter what you think in your hearts, the matter of going out to fight for the thunder is a foregone conclusion, and there is absolutely no possibility ......of changing it!"

"Father, don't make a big fuss, the dragon body is important!" Zhao Jiayun saw him coughing angrily on the side, and couldn't help but remind him, while Zhao Huahan on the other side didn't say a word.

"The emperor is angry!" Dongfang Shun has a special identity, he is not only the president of the Royal Academy, but also the strongest person in the kingdom, although he has no military position, he also has the qualifications to deliberate: "Wenbo is loyal to his ears, but please think twice about the emperor." Soldiers, the major affairs of the country, must not be overlooked, no matter how angry the emperor is, Tianqing is at an absolute disadvantage compared to Dark Flame, without the assistance of external forces, it is unlikely that we will defeat the opponent!"

The rest of the ministers in the main hall were silent, Dongfang Shun breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "In addition to military strength, in terms of the strong, we Tianqing are also unable to compete with Dark Flame. There are more than ten clan-level powerhouses at the same level as the old man, as long as two or three people are sent casually, the old man can be suppressed, and there are even people who behead the middle and high-ranking members of the army, even if it is the emperor, the old man will not have time to take care of it!"

Zhao Tianze looked at the silent faces in the main hall, and let out a few hysterical laughter: "Okay, good, my Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces are helpless in front of the national disaster! I think about how my ancestor Zhengye Emperor opened the country, how to scold Fang Xuan and deter the enemy, and when it comes to this emperor's generation, he can't even protect the country! Haha, what a shame on the emperor!"

"The emperor announced: The 10,000 troops of the imperial city will be rectified immediately, and I will drive the expedition with me, except for Changping Prefecture, the remaining four states will send fifty percent of the soldiers and horses to join the emperor's army, gather together 30,000 troops, and cooperate with the Canglei defenders to drive the Dark Flame Demon Army out of Tianqing. This matter must not be discussed again, from the emperor downwards, if there is any violation of yin and yang and delay the military situation, they will be punished as treason, and they will be beheaded all over the house!"

As soon as Zhao Tianze's words came out, there was an uproar in the hall, even Dongfang Shun blushed and looked at each other angrily, he didn't expect that the emperor, who had always been indecisive, would be so resolute that he didn't even leave a little room left. No matter what everyone thinks in their hearts, they still have to maintain the dignity of the emperor on the surface, and they can't resist the decree in person.

"Also, at the same time, contact the fifteen academies other than Canglei, each academy will send three hundred middle and senior students and ten lecturers to become a strong army, led by the emperor himself, the president of the Royal Academy, Dongfang Shun, as a deputy, and the second prince will also go out with the army. During the period of the Emperor's personal conquest, all other affairs of the Imperial City and the Kingdom will be handed over to the Great Prince!"

Zhao Tianze's next announcement was also extremely amazing, letting the eldest prince Zhao Jiayun handle political affairs on his behalf was equivalent to having already clarified the position of his prince, Zhao Huahan, who was calm and calm just now, became short of breath, and his eyes almost burst into flames. But Dongfang Shun shook his head lightly to hint, so that he could barely control it.

Since the holy order cannot be changed, no matter how dissatisfied the ministers are, they can only operate according to Zhao Tianze's will, one after another government decrees are distributed from the main hall, and the entire palace is busy, the guards and messengers are eager to grow two more legs, and the light of the communication formation has never stopped......

A petite figure took advantage of the chaos to sneak out of the palace and came to the residence of the Royal Academy to house the competition personnel, and when she found that the building was empty, she couldn't help but be furious: "Bad Tang Lang, dead Tang Lang, you dare to leave me alone and run away!"

As he spoke, he even cried, and a voice appeared behind him: "Filipino, Tang Lang is forced to do so, don't blame him! She left you a letter and asked me to tell you, he will definitely come back to you!"

Zhao Feiyu turned around and looked, Li Xinjue leaned quietly in front of the door, his right hand stretched out, holding an envelope, took it and opened it, a few lines of crooked words on it were extremely ugly: "Filipino, I have to return to Canglei first, I hope you can understand." You obediently stay in the palace, eat and sleep well every day, raise yourself fat and fat, and wait for me to come back, definitely!"

"You're just chubby, I'm not a pig!" Zhao Feiyu's heart was sweet and sour, and her heart was all tied to Tang Lang.
