"Yes, that's why I'm worried, if I let it go, when we really start a war with the Inhumans, we don't have to fight, just surrender and admit defeat." Wang Xiaolai half-jokingly.

The empress lowered her head and suddenly shouted.

Wang Xiaolai and the Eight Sages both looked back at her: "What's the matter, Your Majesty?" ”

The empress said: "I suddenly thought of a person, maybe, he has a way to solve this matter, and in the previous Zhao Sui rebellion, it was he who took action to solve the fear of the people. ”

Wang Xiaolai and the Eight Sages looked at each other, and then shouted out a name: "Sitting Buddha Yuankong Zen Master." ”

The empress nodded: "Yuankong Zen Master is a famous living Buddha in Suiyang, as long as he comes forward, another water and land conference will be held, and then through Yuankong Zen Master's reasonable explanation, the people will not believe it." ”

Wang Xiaolai and the Eight Sages both pondered for a while: "It makes sense." ”

The empress smiled: "Since this is the case, then I will order people to go to a Zen Temple to invite Zen Master Yuankong." ”

Wang Xiaolai waved his hand: "No, the old monk of Yuankong is now with the old sword immortal, Your Majesty, you just need to send someone to Foxconn to invite you." ”

The empress was stunned: "Really?" ”

Wang Xiaolai nodded.

The empress said, "Okay, Narcissus, you go for a walk." ”

Narcissus next to him hugged his fists and said, "Obey." ”

After Narcissus went down, Wang Xiaolai said quietly: "In addition to Your Majesty, I have another question to say. ”

The empress looked back at him: "What? ”

"That is, the whole country, the arrest of strangers." When Wang Xiao said this, the empress was stunned.

Wang Xiao glanced at the Eight Sages King, and the two of them had already calculated the way when they came.

"Your Majesty, Daxing City is located in Sizhou, which is the hinterland of Suiyang, and here, it has been invaded by strangers, so what about Qingyou and Hebei Prefectures, which are closer to the Saibei Corridor?"

After Wang Xiao finished speaking, he looked at the empress and did not speak.

The empress also suddenly realized: "Little Laizi, you mean, the aliens have already lurked in to collect the blood needed for the Holy Monarch to fully awaken?" ”

Wang Xiaolai nodded: "Moreover, if nothing else, they are almost completed, in other words, the awakening of the Holy Monarch and the southward movement of the Inhumans will be two to three months in advance." ”

Empress: "···"

Wang Xiaolai shook his head: "If it weren't for Shen Xiping's guy who discovered the strangers in Daxing City, maybe we would all be kept in the dark, and then we were caught off guard by the strangers, and the built Saibei Corridor would be useless at all." ”

The empress's expression was wrong: "The North Corridor has not yet been completed. ”

Wang Xiaolai said: "Yes, it will take at least two months to build the Saibei Corridor, in other words, from October to November before the year, the Saibei Corridor will be completed, and in the middle, it does not include any delay, that is to say, before the construction of the Saibei Corridor is completed, Yiren may go south at any time." ”

The empress clenched her fists: "In this case, then I will raise the national strength of Suiyang and fight against the Inhumans in the grassland." ”

When the words fell, Wang Xiaolai and the Eight Sages waved their hands at the same time: "Your Majesty can't." ”

The empress looked at the two.

The two of you, you look at me, I look at you, and then said: "The combat effectiveness of the aliens far exceeds that of our army, if the war starts in the grassland, it will be unfavorable to our army, and the best way is to drag it until the construction of the Saibei promenade is completed." ”

The empress was embarrassed: "The key question is that the aliens can go south at any time, and the northern corridor has not been built, how can it be delayed." ”

Wang Xiaolai said with a smile: "Regarding this, I have already thought of it, when I came, I discussed with the Eighth Prince, and at the entrance of the frozen canyon, a fortress was built to plug the gap in the frozen canyon. ”

The empress wondered: "Can it be successful?" That Inhuman's combat power is extraordinary. ”

Wang Xiaolai shook his head: "Of course, it is impossible to stop the Inhumans and build a fortress at the entrance of the Frozen Canyon, just to stop the Inhumans from going south and gain time, as long as the construction of the North Corridor is completed." ”

The empress said: "If this is the case, you must find a reliable person to be the manager." ”

"The minister has already given this task to Shen Yijing." The Eight Sages King Road.

"Shen Yijing is brave and good at fighting, and he is loyal, it is most appropriate for him to do it, in addition, the minister also ordered Min Chao to bring an army to respond, and the two add up to 100,000 troops, although it is only said to intercept the footsteps of the aliens, but it is no problem to delay them to go south."

The empress was a little relieved.

Wang Xiaolai said: "So Your Majesty, the key for us now is to hunt down the Inhumans who sneaked in in in several northern states, and exclude that when we were at war with the Inhumans, these fish that slipped through the net attacked the Saibei Promenade. ”

The empress nodded: "Okay, since that's the case, I will give the order immediately." ”

"Your Majesty is slow, anxious and not in a hurry at this time, the most important thing in front of me is to wait for the Yuankong Zen Master to hold a water and land conference to appease the people, and after the water and land conference, it is not too late to do this." Wang Xiaolai and the Eight Sages are both Dao.

The two of them are the first and second leaders of the Suiyang military, and they are both close people to the empress, and after the empress heard this, she nodded: "In this case, do what you want." ”

"By the way, Your Majesty, there is one more thing." Wang Xiaolai suddenly thought.

The empress looked at him in wonder: "What's the matter?" ”

"It's Silla and the West."

"What's wrong with these two places?" The empress was puzzled.

Wang Xiaolai said: "Your Majesty, do you think, Sui Yang has already touched many strangers, so the Silla and the western realm, which are more on guard, will there be no strangers sneaking in?" ”

The empress hissed, and said in her heart that this is indeed possible.

Wang Xiaolai said: "I thought, Your Majesty, you will issue a holy decree, Xuan Silla Suizhu, the west is depressed, come to Daxing City to talk, the best thing is to tell them about the strangers, when the province started the war, the two sides were caught off guard." ”

The empress looked at Wang Xiaolai resentfully, and looked at Wang Xiaolai abruptly, and finally, the empress nodded: "Okay, I will give an order, but what kind of reason is it good to use?" Isn't it time to pay tribute, will it be a little abrupt to summon them into Beijing in advance? ”

Before Wang Xiaolai could speak, the Eight Sages King next to him suddenly said: "Your Majesty, what if you say that Your Majesty is engaged to Taifu?" ”

When the words fell, Wang Xiaolai and the empress both stared at the Eight Sages King with round eyes.

"According to the old minister's opinion, this matter is feasible!"

At this time, there were a few laughs outside the imperial study, followed by Liu Maolin standing at the door, bowing to the empress Ying Ying in the door: "I've seen Your Majesty." ”

The empress's face was flushed, and she hurriedly summoned Liu Maolin into the imperial study, and at the same time blamed: "Old Xiangguo, the emperor is talking nonsense, why are you also messing around." ”

Wang Xiaolai also nodded hurriedly: "That's it." ”

The two old men, Liu Maolin and the Eight Sages King, both sighed: "What, doesn't Your Majesty agree?" ”

The empress opened her mouth to refute, but when the words came to her mouth, she held back.

She glared at Wang Xiaolai, which meant to let Wang Xiaolai hurry up and think of a way.

Noticing the empress's expression, Liu Maolin and the Eight Sages King both looked back at Wang Xiaolai, looking like a scoundrel who will kill you if you dare to talk more: "Taifu thinks it's bad?" ”

Wang Xiaolai panicked when he saw this, and pursed his lips weakly: "What's that, I have reservations, reservations." ”

The Empress rolled her eyes sharply.

The Eight Sages King and Liu Maolin both laughed: "Your Majesty, the parties concerned have no opinions, I don't know, is this matter feasible?" ”

The empress glanced at Wang Xiaolai again, the latter also seemed to be as stable as an old dog, but in fact, she was panicked.

Nodding slightly, the empress felt faceless for a moment.

Half-pushed and half-done, this matter was really booked like this.

However, the engagement will not be announced until both Silla and the people of the Western Frontier have arrived.

In this regard, Liu Maolin and the Eight Sages King have no opinion.

Out of the imperial study, Wang Xiaolai followed the two of them out, feeling the meaning of the empress giving him a look when he came out, Wang Xiaolai caught up with the two and asked: "I said two, what's wrong with you today, why are you so anxious?" ”

Both of them stopped and looked back at Wang Xiaolai: "You guy, you really don't understand?" ”

Wang Xiaolai also wondered: "I understand something, I." ”

The two old men looked at each other, and Liu Maolin was the first to sigh and said: "For the battle of the aliens, I can't tell what the result is, Wang Xiaolai, you and Your Majesty are in love, and you ended this happy event earlier, and it also saves the two of us from worrying, on the battlefield, the sword has no eyes, if something happens, it will not be regretted." Moreover, after the land and water conference, it is the time when the hundred confidence is settled, and at that time, announcing the happy event between you and Your Majesty will also make them more reassuring to the people, don't you understand such a simple truth? ”
