Xu Xijie struggled in front for ten days, and the tenth city of Tianyuan Kingdom was lost, leaving only two cities.

On the fifteenth, the eleventh city was lost, and only 20,000 of the 100,000 army led by Xu Xijie remained.

The people of the Tianyuan Kingdom who remained in the capital fled to the nearby villages one after another, and the entire capital almost became an empty city.

The atmosphere in the court was sluggish, and everyone felt a fear of imminent death.

Yu Wan sat on the court, looked at the few courtiers below, and asked, "Why are there less than 100 people in the court today?" ”

"Back to the emperor, Lord Liu of the household department is sick, the wife of Zhang Shilang's family gave birth, and Lord Wang said that he fell when he went out......"

Ling Yuan took out a booklet, which recorded the reasons for all the officials who had not gone to the court to ask for leave.

The reason is that there are all kinds of strange things, Yu Wan smiled and said nothing, and after listening, he said: "Since these adults are so busy, then they all go home, and they don't need to go to court in the future." ”

Isn't he afraid that the new emperor of Yinxu Kingdom will settle accounts after attacking the city?

"What's going on with General Xu?"

"General Xu will go to the capital today to ......"

Yu Wan immediately got up when he heard this, and said, "Gather everyone and go with me to meet the general." ”

"General Xu has failed the Holy Lord's entrustment, do you still want to go?" Wei Wuzheng was a little dissatisfied, and said, "Your Majesty, now we should send someone to talk to the new emperor of Yinxu Kingdom." Let's see if he is willing to leave us with a trace of Qi in the Tianyuan Kingdom. ”

"No, you don't. If Prime Minister Wei is unwilling to go together, then there is no need to go. ”

Throwing down this sentence, Yu Wan was the first to leave the main hall.

Under the scorching sun, a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on Yu Wan's forehead, Ling Yuan handed over a cup of tea and persuaded: "Your Majesty, you go back to the palace first, wait outside like this...... What if you run into an Assassin? ”

"Do you think I'm still worth being assassinated?" Yu Wan smiled disdainfully and said, "I just want to thank Xu Xijie before I die." ”

Ling Yuan's eyes flashed slightly, and a hint of surprise swept through.

"Before you die? Do you feel like you're going to die? ”

"Do you think I won't die?"

Yu Wan lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and said in a light tone: "Even if I don't die, my mission has failed." ”

'Task two, defend the Tianyuan Kingdom for ten years. ’

Now, less than a year later, she has been beaten by the rebels of the next country and almost lost the city, and she has no power to fight back.

No matter how you think about it, this task is unsolvable.

Ling Yuan glanced at the depressed scene on the street behind him, and also sighed, comforting: "Maybe there is a turnaround?" ”

"Turnaround? Do you believe it? ”

"This ......"

Ling Yuan was silent.

He knew that Yu Wan, the executor's IQ, was not low, and such a clumsy comfort could only make the atmosphere worse.

Pedal Pedal –

Suddenly there was the sound of hurried footsteps behind him, and the sound of the already empty city was even clearer.

Yu Wan and Ling Yuan turned back at the same time, only to see Wei Wuzheng hurrying towards the city gate with a thousand soldiers.

"Phew—"

Wei Wuzheng rode on a tall horse, and the horse raised its hooves and neighed, and stopped in front of Yu Wan.

"Prime Minister Wei, what do you mean by this?" Ling Yuan stepped forward and asked.

"What do you mean? I'm here to save the Tianyuan Kingdom! ”

Wei Wuzheng didn't get down on the horse, his voice was full of disdain, and said, "The emperor is sitting here to wait for General Xu, and the minister will tell Your Majesty that General Xu will not come." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Yu Wan sat on the chair without moving, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked, "Let's not talk about whether General Xu can arrive, I am very curious why Prime Minister Wei didn't get off his horse and bow down when he saw me?" ”

Didn't you say that the wind cold leg was committed?

At this moment, Wei Wuzheng's appearance on the stirrup is very strong and powerful, where does he look like he is sick?

"The emperor still wants me to kneel? Are you worthy? ”

Wei Wuzheng raised his chin and said, "An incompetent emperor still wants others to submit?" It's just wishful thinking! ”

"Heh, it seems that Prime Minister Wei is planning to do the opposite?" Yu Wan asked with a chuckle.

"That's right!" Wei Wuzheng didn't even argue a word, and generously admitted, "You hurry up and hand over the jade seal, I can consider keeping you a whole corpse!" ”

A chill suddenly came from Yu Wan's neck, and at some point a servant beside her took out a dagger and laid it across her throat.

"Y-you're so daring!" Seeing that it was his subordinate, Ling Yuan scolded angrily: "How dare you! ”

"Grandpa Ling, it's all at this time, what are you pretending to be?" The little eunuch with the dagger said disdainfully: "Aren't you also planning to oppose the emperor?" It's just that now we have the first hand! Now you don't have to be cowardly. ”

"You-" Ling Yuan only spat out one word, his eyes filled with cruelty, but he didn't say another word.

It is clear that what this little eunuch said is true.

When Wei Wuzheng saw this scene, he became even more presumptuous, and said, "Yu Wan, quickly hand over the jade seal, otherwise I will be unkind to you!" ”

"It's okay to hand over the jade seal." Yu Wan nodded, as if she didn't intend to resist at all, and said, "I just want to ask one thing." ”

"What?"

"Does Wei Guiren know about this?"

At the mention of his son, a trace of anger flashed across Wei Wuzheng's face, and he said, "If he is willing to cooperate, do you think you can live to this day?" Men are incompetent, and if you are committed to you, you think you are heaven, what a fool! ”

Very early on, Wei Wuzheng asked people to convey his meaning to Wei Mingxin, originally Wei Wuzheng planned to let Wei Mingxin poison the emperor, and announced that he was pregnant, so that he could rightfully take over the Tianyuan Kingdom.

Unfortunately, when this plan was told to Wei Mingxin, it was opposed.

That's why Wei Wuzheng waited so long before he started.

"You should thank the old man's son, if it weren't for his stupidity, you might not have lived so long!"

"I'm very pleased."

A gentle smile rose on Yu Wan's lips, as if she had received a satisfactory answer.

"Now, hand over the jade seal!"

"Hurry up!"

The pain in his neck became more and more obvious, and Yu Wan could feel that his neck was bleeding.

"Okay, here you go." Yu Wan took out a palm-sized square box from his wide sleeve and said, "I hope Prime Minister Wei can keep his promise." ”

"That's nature!" Wei Wuzheng's eyes lit up when he saw the wooden box in Yu Wan's hand.

With the jade seal, he can rightfully take over the Tianyuan Kingdom.

He was about to order someone to take the wooden box from Yu Wan's hand, only to see Yu Wan suddenly take it back.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?"

"Prime Minister Wei Cheng, don't misunderstand, I'm curious, now that Yinxu Kingdom is approaching step by step, the capital can go so that everyone can go, do you really have the ability to turn the tide and defend Tianyuan Kingdom? You're only a few thousand soldiers behind you, right? ”

Wei Wuzheng laughed out loud after hearing this, and his eyes were even more disdainful, and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, should you really be naïve to think that the old man only has these few people, right?" Let me tell you, the old man has 50,000 troops stationed outside the city, which is enough to resist the attack of Yinxu Kingdom! ”
