"What's going on? What is this surging light outside the temple? Qi Diaole woke up from the couch and saw such a scene: the people outside the dormitory were boiling and the fire was blazing, he hurriedly jumped out of bed and ran towards the temple door while shouting to the inner servant, naturally no one responded, and when he opened the temple door, he understood.

The outside of the Windward Hall has become a battlefield, and those in brown military uniforms are their own people, and those in cyan armor are ........ It's Liang Jun! How can it be? The Liang Dynasty has been beaten by himself and has no power to fight back, how could he suddenly appear in the imperial city?

Qi Diaole was half surprised and half frightened, he suddenly looked back and saw a person standing in the chaos of the army, no matter how bloody the battle around her was, her clothes were not stained with the slightest blood, she stood alone without staining the mud, graceful and luxurious. Who is she? Qi Diaole felt that this woman looked a little familiar, but she couldn't see her face clearly, whenever Qi Diaole was taking a step forward, the woman would take a step back accordingly, always maintaining this distance.

In this way, Qi Diao Le Zheng was so attracted by the woman and unconsciously stepped down the steps of the Windward Hall and stepped into the battle array, he seemed to hear something in his ears, he saw those of his subordinates shouting something to him, but he couldn't hear it really, everything was hazy. Qi Diaole was ignoring these people, he wanted to find out the identity of the woman, this time he quickened his pace, and to his surprise, he found that the woman did not retreat anymore but stood in place as if waiting for his arrival.

"You are?" Qi Diaole was about to see the woman's face clearly, and at the same time he also felt a chill on his neck, and then he felt the sky spinning and churning, and finally stopped He saw a person who was exactly the same as himself, wearing exactly the same clothes, with the same size, but this person had no head. This person is me? That's me!

Yes! Qi Diaole was sitting up from the bed in fright, and then he felt that his whole body was soaked, and the beads of sweat on his face fell on the mattress one by one. Look at the surroundings of the dormitory without any sound, let alone fire, some of the previous ones are just dreams, they are really dreams. Qi Diaole was a little afraid to touch his neck with his hand, but fortunately, the head was still there.

Qi Diaole was no longer sleepy, but when he opened the window and saw that it was still early at night, a feeling of loneliness began to spread all around him. At this time, he will miss her very much, if she can be by his side at this time, this cold feeling will definitely subside a lot, but unfortunately, she will never appear again.

"Sakura....... You okay? Are you still blaming me? ”

Qi Diao Le was sitting alone in front of the window until the morning glow was all over the sky, until the door of the hall was gently pushed open, a woman dressed in Luo Sha walked into the hall lightly, and found that there was no one on the couch and immediately put a panicked look on her face.

"King Khan, why do you get up so early?"

The woman's voice was soft, although it did not have Zhuo Lingyi's warbler cry, but it was far better than the average woman. When looking at her, Qi Diao Lezheng always has the illusion, the illusion that Sakura is still alive, the two of them are really too similar, if you have to say what is the difference, it is the temperament, she is much more docile than Sakura.

"The originally good situation is now taking a turn for the worse, and there is unfavorable news from both the land and water armies, do you think I can sleep?"

"There is no such thing as eternity

The situation is like this, and so is the human heart. ”

Qi Diao Le Zheng always felt that Yan Luo Hari had something to say, the early dynasty was coming, and he didn't have time to make a good living, so he had Yan Luo to change his clothes. Seeing her busy around herself, Qi Diao Lezheng really believed her words, there is indeed no immutable thing, and the trough may not be without a turnaround.

The optimism that originated from Yan Luo was being brought to the main hall, and with the ministers' invitations, the optimism disappeared without a trace. The water division was defeated, and there is no news of Yongwujian until now, the only expectation is that Wu Yu, who has gone deep into the hinterland of the Liang Dynasty, but who knows that all he has heard these days is the battle report that the city has lost one by one, at first Qi Diaole was reluctant to believe it, he knew that there were many people in the court who were worried that Wu Jihou had no chance to impeach him, Qi Diaole was more patient, and he firmly believed that Wu Jihou would not let him down.

It turns out that the higher the expectations of someone, the greater the loss of the result. This is the case with the current lacquer carving music, and the battle report mentions that the end army and the Liang army are fighting for Qingzhou City, and the current outcome is unpredictable. Qingzhou is the last of the 16 states of the Central Plains of the outer city, Qingzhou fell into the hands of the Liang army, a closed front from the east and the state to the west to Annam was formed, and the end of the army completely cut off the connection with the Tang Dynasty, and the cities they currently occupy have become enclaves.

"Xiaoxiang, what do you think?"

Dugu Gu, who had been burying his head, looked up at Qi Diao Lezheng's eagle-like eyes and couldn't help but tremble, if he had been replaced before, he would never have been so embarrassed, after all, he was the little minister of the Tang Dynasty, but under a few people, the civil and military officials who saw him must not be in awe. But who is to blame? Dugu Gu thought that he would be able to get a great deal of military merit and come back to reward him with a military merit, but the dignified Xia Tang Sailor was defeated, and even the boss was already uncertain, and he was lucky enough to pick up a life and return to the Xia Tang Dynasty It was already blessed by the sky.

"Back to the Khan, the battle of Qingzhou must have been fought by both sides, either side knows what this city means, and his subordinates think that the Khan can appropriately increase troops in Qingzhou to assist Lord Tuorong."

"Reinforcements? Assist? Qi Diao Lezheng actually laughed, but this smile was really ugly, and he asked rhetorically: "Xiaoxiang, do you know what else happened to us in the Tang Dynasty these days?" ”

Dugu Gu's face immediately became gloomy, and he glanced at his colleagues around him with his spare eyes, all of them like wooden people, trying to recall anything he heard and encountered after returning to China, and none of them seemed to have anything directly related to the increase in troops in Qingzhou. Dugu Gu didn't dare to delay King Khan's questioning, so he had to shake his head.

"Then let King Ben Khan tell you! The alliance we formed with Xiliang has been completely nullified, and Xiliang not only did not help, but also attacked from behind, and they took advantage of our full strength to attack the Liang Dynasty! ”

Dugu Gu's brain buzzed, he finally realized how dangerous he would be, he was the one who promoted the cooperation between Tang and Xiliang at the beginning, and later when Xiliang defected, King Khan still believed him, and now Xiliang actually attacked Chike City, so it is difficult to clear up the guilt on his body.

"Regarding the importance of Chike City, I think Xiao Xiang is very clear, we lost the sea access after the defeat of Duzhou City, and now that Chike City has changed hands, we have lost the last land access, dare to ask Xiao Xiang what his idea is?"

Dugu Gu no longer dares to look at Qi Diao Lezheng's eyes, they are a pair of eyes that can eat people, as long as he looks at it more, there will be a piece of meat missing from his body.

At this time, Dugu Gu felt that half of his body was no longer conscious, he never expected that Xiliang would be despicable and choose Chike City, so that Qingzhou would become the last retreat of the Qi Mo army.

Here it is necessary to state the location of the Red Carved Castle. This small castle stands in the northwest of the land border between Daliang and Xiatang, due north is Xiliang, southwest is Daliang Dengzhou, can be said to be the boundary of the junction of the three kingdoms, the strategic significance is self-evident. If the end of the city was defeated in Qingzhou, they would have one last chance to cross the hill and rush to Chike City, and they would be able to retreat with their whole body, but now that the city was in the hands of Xiliang, the last retreat of the end army was also cut off.

"King Khan, I ......."

"Little minister, your ability is trustworthy, as for your loyalty......."

"King Khan, my subordinates are willing to go to Chike City to negotiate with Xiliang in person!"

"Very well, without further ado, let's leave today!"

After the next dynasty, Qi Diaole was gloomy and planned to go back to the dormitory directly, last night was tossed by nightmares for half a night and was really tired after a busy morning, Qi Diaole was trying to rest for a while, but just outside the hall, she saw Zhuo Lingyi not far away, she made a palace salute towards Qi Diaole from afar.

Qi Diaole was immediately no longer sleepy, he walked to Zhuo Lingyi's side and asked, "It's rare to see you waiting for me today?" ”

"The actress is please."

Qi Diaole raised his arm and said to the palace people: "Swing the Mingluo Palace!" ”

Mingluo Palace is a separate palace far away from the Imperial City of the Lower Tang Dynasty, and if you want to go to the Mingluo Palace, you must pass through the earliest Lower Tang Dynasty Imperial Court - Shahua Youting, of course, it is now a scorched earth. When the sedan chair passed by, his eyes closed directly, and no one knew what was happening here better than him, and he was thinking about how to deal with the actress's rhetoric later.

After passing through the Shahua Garden, the sedan chair will continue to travel for a while, and you can see a whole purple bamboo forest over a not too high mountain, which was transplanted from the beam, and the purple bamboo forest had never appeared in the land of the Tang Dynasty before. After so many years of careful cultivation, the original dwarf and slender purple bamboo forest has become lush and green. The palace is in the depths of this purple bamboo forest, this palace is composed of three small palaces, each of which is deliberately made oval, connected by a bamboo bridge between each other, forming a triangle, which looks like a bamboo shoot from a distance, and there is a deep pool in the middle of the triangle.

The sedan chair stopped at the entrance of the purple bamboo forest, Qi Diaole was getting off the sedan chair and followed Zhuo Lingyi and walked slowly into the forest, along the way you could hear bursts of bird song echoing in the bamboo forest, the closer to the sound of the spring water of the Mingluo Palace, the clearer it became.

When I got closer, I realized that there was a spring in the deep pool in the middle of the triangle, near the bamboo forest, and there was a clear spring gushing out of it, and the sound of the spring water came from here. Thanks to the living water, the water in this pool is exceptionally clear and clear. Walking in the trail, listening to the birds in your ears and looking at the verdant greenery in your eyes, it is perfect for meditation.

Qi Carving Le was following Zhuo Lingyi to step on the bamboo ladder upstairs, and was greeted by a two-door palace door. It is not so much a palace as a common stilted building in Nanzhao, which is filled with the breath of life everywhere, and there is no majesty of the palace at all, but it has taken such a domineering name.

The two palace people guarding outside the palace gate saw that Qi Diaole was coming and immediately knelt down to say goodbye, Qi Diaole looked at them as if they were nothing, and a pair of eyes kept staring at the palace.

"It's the Khan King, please come in!" The voice of a young girl.
