The sun rising on the horizon awakens the sleeping creatures of the earth, and those who are resilient still sleep with their heads in their hands. It's early winter, the weather is rarely warm, cloudless,

The interior of the palace is full of colorful lanterns, full of festive ribbons, the early palace maids and eunuchs are like sleek glass balls, rolling on the uneven land, the queen mother's palace is thicker, and the pruned branches and flowers are hung with rare things, which look like a gold ingots glowing with golden light from a distance.

The last large-scale rehearsal of the various dancers in the house; The cook, who gets up before the rooster crows, shows his perfect cooking skills in the kitchen; The ministers and relatives from distant countries were preparing for the banquet in their respective rooms, and no one knew that they had gotten up early, and the word "busy" was reflected on everyone's faces.

It was the birthday of the Queen Mother, but there was no need to go to court. But the queen mother thought about the rise and fall of the country, and was afraid that her birthday banquet would disturb or give foreign countries the opportunity to attack, so the emperor must go to court.

The Emperor of the Outer Court sat upright in the court, his brows furrowed, and his expression was serious, "You were attacked within your own country?"

The young military general standing on the road raised his banner above his head: "Yes, the emperor." ”

"There has never been internal strife in this country, who would dare to attack the prime minister of another country, and Qi has always been at odds with his country, wanting to devour it in one fell swoop and dominate the world. It was only because the Emperor of Heaven had an appointment with the Emperor of Xu that he never dared to act rashly. But as long as one party defaults, then this constraint will no longer exist. Has the emperor ever thought about who would be more advantageous? ”

"General Bai is a military general?" A middle-aged man with a long beard asked.

"Prime Minister, the minister was born as a military general, but he also won the Jinshi, once entered the Hanlin Academy, and became a scholar. It should be regarded as both civil and military. General Bai arched his hand to look at the prime minister, his eyes full of contempt.

"General Bai speculates who dares to be so bold." The concubine asked each other, but did not change the slightest interest because of the eyes of others. Having fought in officialdom for more than 40 years, he is the most familiar with everyone's thoughts.

"There has never been infighting in the country, but it doesn't mean that there is none, although the new king of Qi is not the son of Emperor Xuzhi, but he is also related by blood, and they have lost considerable troops and financial resources after annihilating the Song Dynasty. They will not launch an attack at this juncture, but they have not given up their ambitions, there must be a rebel in their country who will attack, and Qi is only an auxiliary. "Your Majesty, the minister agrees with the general's suggestion," said the prince.

"I know what you mean, but this birthday feast must go on! General Bai sent troops to garrison the palace and to hide. As for that thing. I will make up my mind to let the prince stay. 'Retreat'".

"Congratulations to the emperor".
