Chapter 16: Western Chu

Western Chu, formerly Zhongzhou Great Chu State.

Since the founding of the country 1,300 years ago, after dozens of generations of kings, once prosperous, the most vast territory can be compared to today's ten Great Xia, enough to compete with the Great Zhou Dynasty, but in the heyday encountered a national disaster, the palace collapsed overnight, the royal family members were almost killed and wounded, the dynasty fell apart in an instant, civil strife continued, foreign enemies continued, the dynasty was stormy for a while, and it was in danger.

At this time, the Pingxi palace Shuo guarding the western border was elected as the new emperor, this palace Shuo is the ninth son of the first emperor, he has always been low-key, when the eight princes competed for the position of the prince, he should have occupied a place, but he was surprised by everyone and chose to go to the border to guard one side, many people have the impression of him are heroic, but there is no strategy, to put it bluntly, there is courage and no strategy, but when he succeeded to the throne, he showed an amazing ability to govern the world, just ten years, he calmed the civil strife, drove away foreign enemies, completely stabilized the situation of the dynasty, and then decades let the dynasty prosper again, towards the prosperity of the Kaiyuan Dynasty。

However, after experiencing Zhongxing, there has never been any decent monarch in Great Chu, generation after generation began to weaken, constantly being encroached upon by other countries, from the great Chu Empire in the sky, slowly became today's Western Chu, trapped in the land of Western Shu, to the west is the vast Western Desert, to the east is the Great Xia whose national strength is far above the Western Chu, to the south is the 100,000 mountains, and to the north there are Yanqi countries eyeing each other, if it is not for the current empress is quite patriarchal, governing the country well, plus there is the military god Nangong Ci to lead the world's soldiers and horses to deter the enemy, maybe today's Western Chu has disappeared in the territory of Kyushu。

The Palace of the Emperor of Western Chu is located in the White Emperor City of Shudi, inside and outside the palace wall, the sword and halberd are forested, and the imperial city is up and down, and it is solemn.

It is said that Xishu has been a place to raise dragons since ancient times, and there were real dragons living here in ancient times, so they were contaminated with the breath of the real dragon.

Of course, this is just a folk rumor, but I don't believe it, but the land of Xishu is full of spiritual energy, but it is true, there is a rumor that there is a sect of cultivating immortals hidden in the depths of Shu Mountain, and some people have seen the immortal sword with their own eyes, and they don't know whether it is true or false.

At this time, in the palace of Emperor Naxi Chu, on the stargazing platform.

A slender figure in a golden Nine Dragons and Nine-clawed dragon robe was standing quietly on the edge of the railing, looking up at the starry sky, stunned, and the same was true of a seat of Tsing Yi not far away, but the scene they saw was completely different.

That seat of the golden dragon robe, is the current Western Chu Empress Gong Li, she ascended the throne at the age of seventeen, twenty years of hard work, the Western Chu in an orderly manner, deeply respected by the people, at the same time her martial arts talent is amazing, as early as ten years ago stepped into the realm of Nirvana, once and the Xishu Sword Emperor fought in Feixiantai, the battle of a few days to defeat the Sword Emperor, and thus comprehended the Flying Immortal Sword Trick, a move outside the sky Flying Immortals, famous in the world, the empress is famous, also known to the world.

And that Tsing Yi, is now the military god Nangong Ci respected by everyone in Western Chu, more than ten years ago Gong Li just ascended the throne, the court situation is unstable, internal and external troubles are continuous, Nangong Ci appeared at that time, first as a scribe to set foot in the government, to help the empress revitalize the dynasty, stabilize the civil strife, and then cast a pen from Rong, joined the army, led the troops to fight, and swept away the foreign enemies one by one, which is why there is today's too peaceful and stable Western Chu.

The people of Xichu can have today, and these two people have made great contributions.

"Mr. Nangong, now that the Great Xia chaos is about to start, Nanjun is young side by side, and he rashly led the troops to attack the imperial city, causing Nanjun to be empty, is this a great opportunity for my Western Chu to send troops?"

Nangong Ci, known as the military god of Western Chu, is dressed as a Confucian scholar, his sideburns are gray, and he is obviously not young, but his face is still handsome, perhaps twenty years ago, he was also a strange horse man admired by countless women.

He looked at the empress's back, there was a hint of admiration hidden in his eyes, and after hearing the empress's words, his slightly vicissitudes of life voice sounded:

"Your Majesty, sending troops to Nanjun is probably not a wise move. ”

"Why?" the empress turned and stared at the man in front of her, who was both a teacher and a father to her.

"I think my Western Chu has been invaded by the southern barbarians all the year round, and I am annoyed, it is the king of Nanjun who deters Nanban, so that he does not dare to step out of the 100,000 mountains and half a step, which has decades of stability in the south of Western Chu, and now if we send troops to Nanjun, and not to say that righteousness is a loss, just say that the 800,000 Longxiang Iron Cavalry that shocked Nanban, they will not be able to watch us occupy Nanjun, compared to suppressing Nanban, protecting Nanjun and guarding the palace side by side, is the most important duty of these 800,000 Longxiang Iron Cavalry. ”

"But, just watching such a good opportunity being missed? I have been waiting for so many years, when will I be able to truly return to the country? Do I want to stay in this remote place forever and be the tiger of Pingyang?" The empress seemed to be a little emotional, her voice raised a lot, and a powerful aura on her body naturally emanated, and a long black hair danced without wind, and the power was terrifying.

However, in the face of the powerful aura of a strong man at the peak of the Nirvana Realm, Nangong Ci, who seemed to be weak, was not the slightest different, and he spoke very calmly:

"Your Majesty, don't worry, Great Xia is in civil strife, and let him go in chaos, if it seems to be a change today, the chaos is not only the Great Xia country, I'm afraid even the Great Zhou who is far away in the Central Plains will not be spared, the ministers have been arranging for many years, and now is the time to take action." ”

"Sir, what do you mean?" the aura on the empress's body suddenly converged, but there was a dazzling glint in her eyes.

"Northwest, the land of Yanqi. Nangong Ci faced the north, with a hint of murder in his voice.
