"Yunqing, has Liuzhou City really been breached?" Emperor Nanchu looked at Zongren and asked.

Zongren nodded solemnly and said: "Yes, Your Majesty, the Zhou army launched a night attack and broke through Liuzhou City in one fell swoop, Wei Shuai retreated with a large army, and the report should be about to arrive, and the minister and the princess returned to the capital one step earlier without stopping." ”

The Emperor of Southern Chu muttered, "Night attack? Could it be that Liuzhou City couldn't even withstand a night attack? ”

Princess Linglong cried worriedly: "Father, you must take care of the dragon body!" ”

Now, the Southern Chu Emperor finally affirmed that Liuzhou had indeed been breached, and he asked, "Didn't Linglong meet the Great Zhou Emperor?" ”

Zongren Zheng said in a deep voice: "I see, the night before the city of Liuzhou was broken, the minister and the princess went to the Great Zhou military camp and met the Great Zhou Emperor. ”

Met the Great Zhou Emperor? Emperor Nanchu looked at his daughter's beautiful and fragrant face, and said in surprise: "Linglong saw the Great Zhou Emperor, and the Great Zhou Emperor ......."

Princess Linglong said in a low voice: "Although the Great Zhou Emperor is tempted by women, the Mingyue girl of the Sword Pavilion is by the side of the Great Zhou Emperor, so, therefore, it is all the daughter's incompetence." ”

Emperor Nanchu shook his head, was silent for a moment, the pale color on his face gradually faded, waved his hand to let the eunuchs around him retreat, and said, "Yunqing, you tell me in detail about what happened to you from beginning to end. ”

Zongren was thinking for a while, and then began to talk in detail, starting from arriving at the Zhou army camp, the Southern Chu Emperor listened very seriously.

"The Emperor of the Great Zhou said, 'Your princess is indeed very beautiful, and I like it too, so please ask Princess Linglong to go back to the capital to prepare for marriage, and I will personally raise the army to go to the capital of Southern Chu to marry in the near future.' ”

Zong Ren couldn't help but look up at the emperor when he said this, and the emperor had an expression on his face, not knowing what he was thinking.

Zongren Zheng continued: "Then the Great Zhou Emperor asked the generals in the big tent, what do you think of Princess Linglong?" Whether I can hold the beauty or not depends on you! ”

"The generals fell to their knees, shouting that they wanted to break through the capital as soon as possible and marry Princess Linglong for the emperor."

Emperor Nanchu said in a deep voice: "Da Zhou, the young emperor, is very ambitious!" Instead, it boosted morale, hey, what about later! ”

Zongren Zheng continued: "Then Bian Qingdou persuaded the Great Zhou Emperor with the common people in the world, as long as the Great Zhou Emperor is willing to withdraw from the army, she is willing to be a slave and a maid, but the Great Zhou Emperor was not moved, and ordered someone to take us down to rest." ”

"The minister was unwilling to do this, so he persuaded the princess to go to the sleeping tent of the Great Zhou Emperor alone."

Emperor Nanchu stared at his daughter when he heard this.

Princess Linglong's face turned red, and she said in a low voice: "My daughter went to the imperial tent and met the Emperor of the Great Zhou as she wished, and my daughter, my daughter began to seduce him, and he seemed to be very tempted, but Miss Mingyue suddenly turned out of the inner tent." ”

"Therefore, the plan of the daughter's seduction failed, and after going back, Sister Qingdou said that she would find another opportunity, and as a result, the Emperor of the Great Zhou led the army to attack Liuzhou City at night and broke through Liuzhou City."

Zongren Zheng continued: "The minister noticed that the Great Zhou Emperor had launched a night attack, but the Great Zhou Emperor had no choice but to guard against the ministers and others, and arranged for the personnel to be very strict, and there was no chance to sneak out to report the news. ”

"The ministers waited until dawn before they had the opportunity to leave the Zhou army camp, and when they rushed to Liuzhou City, Liuzhou City had already been breached."

Emperor Nanchu said in a deep voice: "Wei Qingfeng is sitting in Liuzhou City, how could he be broken by a night attack?" Was it because of the indiscriminate intervention of Divine Officer Zhao that Liuzhou City was breached? ”

Zongren was thinking about it: "The minister met Zhao Shenguan and Wei Shuai, the Great Zhou Emperor was very insidious, and he had been sending people to harass Liuzhou City at night, pretending to attack Liuzhou City, so that the soldiers of Liuzhou City could not rest. ”

Emperor Nanchu frowned slightly and said, "Just because of this?" ”

The sect was pondering and muttered: "Divine Officer Zhao also said that there was a traitor. ”

Emperor Nanchu was shocked when he heard this: "Mole? ”

Zongren Zheng said in a deep voice: "According to Divine Officer Zhao, the northern city wall where the enemy army attacked first, the enemy army attacked the city wall, and the defenders only sounded the alarm bell. ”

Emperor Nanchu said: "The last time Wei Qingfeng led his troops into battle, Officer Zhao suspected that it was the traitor who took Wei Qingfeng's surprise attack plan, so that the enemy army had already prepared. Is there really a mole? Is there such a wolf-hearted man in the army? ”

"Didn't Shenguan Zhao secretly investigate in Liuzhou City? Could it be that you have found any clues? ”

Zongren Zheng smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, the minister only listened to what Divine Officer Zhao said, and Wei Shuai didn't talk about the traitor. When Wei Shuai's performance arrives, it must be clear. ”

Emperor Nanchu sighed deeply, even if he figured out why Liuzhou was breached, Liuzhou had already been breached!

As soon as the city of Liuzhou was broken, the imperial court really reached a critical juncture of survival.

Zongren Zheng asked, "Your Majesty, Liuzhou City has been breached, what should I do?" ”

The Emperor of Southern Chu sighed: "Our dynasty has reached a critical time for survival, and I will convene the ministers to discuss and see if there is a good way to retreat from the enemy!" ”

What is the best way to retreat from the enemy? If there is a good strategy, why is it that even Liuzhou City has been breached? Zongren Zheng also sighed in his heart, he is also a member of the royal family, and the relationship with the imperial court is one of both loss and glory.

The Emperor of Southern Chu waved his hand and said: "Yunqing, you have worked hard all the way, let's retreat and rest for the time being, and when Wei Qingfeng's performance arrives, I will convene the ministers to discuss." ”

The sect was retreating, and the Emperor of Southern Chu looked at his daughter and said, "Linglong, you have worked hard all the way, your mother is very worried about you, you go and see your mother!" ”

Princess Linglong hesitated for a moment, and Ai Ai said, "Father, that night the bright moon girl said a lot of things in front of her daughter. ”

Emperor Nanchu asked lightly, "What are you talking about?" ”

Princess Linglong said during Ai Ai: "It is said that the general trend of the world cannot be changed by one person, even the Emperor of the Great Zhou, and he also said that for the sake of the people of the south and the royal family of Nanchu, let me go back to prepare for marriage, so that my father can return to obedience as soon as possible." ”

Emperor Nanchu asked, "What do you think?" ”

Princess Linglong asked Ai Ai: "Father, Wei Shuai has been defeated twice in a row, and Liuzhou City has also been breached, we, can we still repel the enemy army?" ”

Emperor Nanchu said in a deep voice: "It's difficult, it's difficult, Liuzhou City was breached, and it was transmitted to Qin Town, the army's heart was shaken, and Qin Town was not far from being breached." ”

Emperor Nanchu sighed: "Linglong, you are my most beloved daughter, I put all the burden on your shoulders before, your mother complained about me, and I felt uncomfortable." ”

Princess Linglong shook her head and said, "Father, as a princess, this is what I should do!" ”

Emperor Nanchu said with a complicated expression: "Whether you return or not, I don't count what I said!" With the temple in front of me, even if I intend to submit, how many people in the court can listen? ”
