"We will start the army two days in advance, and the soldiers will be very fast, and we will definitely be able to catch the emperor off guard." Sun Qingchun stroked his beard and said.

"Yes, even if that letter is what Lord Guo meant, it doesn't matter, anyway, we have a chance to win now, and if that letter is forged by the emperor, then we are in a better position."

"Reasonable, Lord Sun is really clever."

Sun Qingchun laughed heartily, looking confident.

"Pass my order, immediately raise troops and go to the Imperial City of Wuling County!"

On the streets of Pingtian, the vendors passed by, the residents came and went, a peaceful scene, suddenly, there was a rumbling sound on the south road, everyone looked up, and was surprised to find that there was a huge number of army marching on the ring road, and the direction turned out to be the imperial city.

"Is this army going to the capital to report on their work?"

"I don't see it, you look at the expressions of those sergeants, murderous, I heard that this is Lord Sun rebelling."

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"I've heard about it too, it looks like the Hirata Imperial Power is about to change hands, hey."

"We don't want this new emperor to be replaced, as soon as he comes to power, he will give us peasant land and freedom without status, he is a good emperor!"

"Hey, it was precisely because he gave the peasants land and freedom that he touched the interests of the nobles and the powerful, so he set himself on fire."

For a time, the people were boiling over the sky, discussing the future of the country, and even many peasants knelt on their own land, praying to the gods to bless the young emperor who had given the people equality and freedom to survive the catastrophe safely.

More people see the situation clearly, thinking that the new emperor, who has ascended the throne for a few months, has run out of gas, after all, the soldiers are pressing, and the strength is on the bright side, who loses and who wins, and the clear-eyed person can see it clearly and brightly.

Early this morning, as soon as Meng Qi got up to prepare for breakfast, Xiangguo Liu Neng stumbled into the dormitory and said in a panic: "Your Majesty, something is wrong, the rebels are coming, and the rebels led by Sun Qingchun have arrived in Daji County and are about to come to the city." ”

Liu Neng was so nervous that he could speak a little incoherently.

Meng Qi pouted and said: "This Sun Qingchun, what he says doesn't count, according to the agreement, it shouldn't be a rebellion at this time." ”

"Huh?" Liu Neng was stunned.

"Then how long will it be before they get to my imperial city?" Meng Qi didn't care and asked calmly.

"About two hours." Liu Neng was so anxious that he began to rub his hands.

Meng Qi smiled: "It's still early, don't worry, let me have breakfast first, I'm hungry." ”

"Huh? Your Majesty, when has this been, you still have the heart to joke with the old minister, and your eyebrows will be burned immediately! Liu Neng was so anxious that he stomped his feet.

Meng Qi said strangely: "Didn't you say that there are still two hours left before you reach the imperial city?" Two hours isn't enough for me to have breakfast? ”

Liu Neng looked at Meng Qi and didn't look like he was joking, he suddenly understood that Meng Qi had a plan to retreat from the enemy.

He asked tentatively, "Your Majesty, do you have any tricks?" ”

"Of course, there is." Meng Qi said with a smile.

"Doesn't that need to be prepared in advance?" Liu Neng asked again, in the previous battle of burning the 50,000 elite soldiers of Quyu Kingdom, at least he dug ditches and ditches, built giant crossbows and bombs, but now, this emperor has not moved at all, and Liu Neng really has no bottom in his heart.

"The first thing before the war is to feed yourself, haha." Meng Qi called Wei Zhong, the chief eunuch, and said, "Hurry up and tell the kitchen, prepare the meal, Lao Tzu will go to defend against the enemy when he is full." ”

Wei Zhong was ordered to retreat and went to the imperial dining room.

"Second, I now need a square plank about five meters square, the thickness of this plank must be one meter thick, tell the military book Guo Da to do it, yes, Guo Da is still lying in the infirmary, then tell the rest of the military department to do it, urge them to do it quickly, and prepare it within two hours." Meng Qi commanded again.

"Third, send an order to the northeast and let Qin Zhi hurry back with the Dragon Marching Army and the Qinghe Army to escort him."

"Fourth, bring Wei He over."

Liu Neng stared at Meng Qi for a long time before asking, "Gone?" ”

Meng Qi nodded and said, "It's gone." ”

"The subordinate receives the order." Although Liu Neng still didn't know how Meng Qi resisted the enemy, he naturally strictly followed Meng Qi's orders and didn't dare to disobey.

After Liu Neng stepped back, Meng Qi began to brush his teeth and wash his face slowly, there is no toothbrush and toothpaste in this world, but they will brush their teeth with orange peel sticky with fine salt, and then rinse their mouths, so that the brush is quite clean and can also freshen the breath.

Zoro on the side saw that Meng Qi was not in a hurry, and he did not panic at all because the soldiers pressed the city, and he was strange and admired in his heart.

After waiting for a while, several little eunuchs and palace maids in the imperial dining room served Meng Qi a meal, and at this time, Wei He, who was escorted by Xing Dao and ten personal guards, also arrived at the dormitory.

Meng Qi saw that Wei He had lost a lot of weight recently, and he could see the cheekbones on his cheeks, and the bags under his eyes were also very serious, but this did not affect Wei He's beauty, and the more Meng Qi looked at it, the more he felt that the woman in Hirata Country was really beautiful.

And Wei He was holding the black box that Meng Qi gave her before, that is, the black box containing the ashes of Feng Xuechuan, the general of Qu Yuguo.

Meng Qi's eyes swept over the black box, then put it on Wei He, and said with a smile: "Come and eat some together, and your grandfather Lord Wei will come to pick you up later." ”

Wei He's godless eyes suddenly flashed brightly, and he looked at Meng Qi and asked, "Really?" ”

"Of course it's true, you'll see him later." Meng Qi said with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Wei He bowed and said respectfully.

"Don't thank me, thank your grandfather." Meng Qi smiled faintly.

After that, Wei He sat down to eat, probably because he heard that he could go home and had a good appetite, Wei He ate a lot, but compared to Meng Qi, it was a big deal.

After Wei He ate two bowls of rice, he was shocked to find that Meng Qi had already eaten twenty bowls of rice.

Immediately afterwards, Meng Qi ate a hundred bowls of rice and dozens of dishes under Wei He's frightened eyes.

"Okay, I'm full, see it's still early, go to the courtyard to eliminate food, and then go to the city to wait for Sun Qingchun and Wei Ying." Meng Qi stood up and stretched.

The corners of Wei He's mouth twitched, even if she saw Meng Qi's amount of food with her own eyes, she still couldn't believe it.

"Don't be stunned, come with me." Meng Qi greeted Wei He, and the two walked out of the dormitory and walked around the courtyard.

Before the palm-sized garden turned to the head, Xiangguo Liu Neng ran over quickly and shouted: "Your Majesty, something is wrong, the rebels have arrived under the city." ”

Meng Qi said strangely: "So fast? Didn't you say two hours? ”

Liu Neng said embarrassedly: "Maybe... Maybe the other party used to run. ”

Meng Qi glanced at Liu Neng, didn't say anything, and rushed to the outside of the palace with Wei He and Sauron.

"Hey, by the way, is the plank I asked you to prepare, ready?" Meng Qi suddenly asked Liu Nengdao again.

"Ready." Liu Neng replied.

Meng Qi nodded and said, "Let the five strongest soldiers carry this plank outside the city, and I'll wait for you outside." ”

"Also, go to the infirmary and bring Master Guo over, he wants to 'watch the ceremony'." Meng Qi added.

"Yes." Liu Neng was ordered to retreat.

Meng Qi took the Shence Army, which was dedicated to guarding the imperial family, to the outside of the imperial city, and saw the black rebels outside.
