The news of Lu Gongyou's death in battle can be said to have spread at the same time as the war report came, although the empress had ordered a strict ban, but it could not stop the spies of the Guangling Palace, who had infiltrated Daxing City, from spreading everywhere.

However, in just a few days, the prison in Daxing City was full of spies from the Guangling Palace.

It seems that they don't care about their lives at all, even if they are killed on the street, there is still a steady stream of spies sneaking into Daxing City to publicize the news that Lu Gongyou died in battle.

All of a sudden, the people of Daxing City were panicked, this was different from before, when Zhao Sui hit Tongguan before, the people still had a hope, as long as Lu Gongyou made a move, Zhao Sui would definitely lose.

However, now that Lu Gongyou has also died in battle, who will help Zhao Sui?

The people couldn't figure it out, obviously in the past month, Lu Gongyou had won a hundred battles, and he had already fought so much that the eighteenth anti-king couldn't raise his head, so why was he killed by the Jedi?

Hundreds of thousands of people, everyone is terrified, everyone is uneasy.

For this situation, the empress didn't even have a way at all, even if she personally appeased the people, it didn't have a very good effect.

Under the pressure of many aspects, the empress had no choice but to send a letter to the Eight Sages King, asking him to lead his troops south, and solve Zhao Sui first, as for the pressure on the grassland, it could only be handed over to Shen Yijing for the time being.

The book was sent, and the Eight Sages quickly replied.

In the letter, the Eight Sages King made it clear that if he withdrew his troops at this time, the danger brought by Huyan Zhuozhuo would not be lower than that of Zhao Suilai, and he would never withdraw his troops, and in view of the war that had just happened in the small city of Tai'an, Xiaoyang, the Eight Sages King in addition to deeply regretting it, recommended a person to the empress, a person who could save the building that would collapse, and a person who could lead Sui Yang to victory.

Wang Xiaolai.

In the letter, the Eight Sages King assured with his own head that at this time, in the court, only Wang Xiaolai could stabilize the situation and turn defeat into victory.

Moreover, the Eight Sages King even made it clear that Lu Gongyou once said that Wang Xiaolai's ability to lead troops was not weaker than him.

The empress understands the reasoning, but the key is that Wang Xiaolai is not in Daxing City at all now.

Moreover, you don't know when he will come back, even if the empress wants to override the public opinion and hand over the responsibility to Wang Xiaolai, but what can she do if Wang Xiaolai is not there?

There is no way, the empress can only find someone nearby and let Jin Shichang lead the team to support first, no matter what, she can't let Zhao Sui pass the city of Yuema Tong again.

···

In the imperial garden of the Imperial Palace, the empress sat alone in the pavilion, in the night, she held the letter of the Eight Sages King recommending Wang Xiaolai in her hand, her face was sad, and she muttered to herself: "Little Laizi, I need you very much now, but where are you..."

···

"Ahh

Wang Xiaolai, who had experienced the coronation ceremony of the three barbarians, on the way back to Daxing City, a sneeze came out and muttered to himself: "It's strange, why do you always feel a little uneasy, could it be that something happened in Daxing City?" ”

Yuluocheng, who was walking with him, looked at him: "Are you suffering from the cold?" ”

Wang Xiaolai looked up and saw Yuluo City, as well as the scabbard he was carrying behind Yuluo City, and he was angry: "Old Yu, I didn't say you, you tricked me from Daxing City to come here for this bullshit scabbard?" I didn't find any secrets, and I was delayed in such things, you say, what if there is something going on in Daxing City, what should I do? ”

Yuluocheng said: "Simple. ”

As he spoke, he grabbed Wang Xiaolai, and he was so frightened that he shouted: "What are you doing." ”

Yuluocheng said: "Hold it firm, I'll take you back." ”

While speaking, white light wrapped around the two of them, and with a brush, it was like a meteor catching the moon, and in the dark night sky, a white light came out.

The full-speed flight of the rain falling city made Wang Xiaolai unable to open his eyes, closed his eyes tightly, and shouted in his mouth: "It's too fast, it's too fast, it's not Lao Yu, I asked you to take me back two days ago You didn't agree, what's wrong now, I haven't said it yet, you made your own decision." ”

Yuluocheng looked ahead: "Because, Sui Yang really had an accident." ”

One sentence made Wang Xiaolai stunned: "What? ”

Yuluocheng stretched out his hand and pointed to a crumbling star in the sky, and said, "Look. ”

"The wind is so strong that I can't open my eyes." Wang Xiaolai said.

When the rain fell, he stopped, grabbing Wang Xiaolai's collar in his hand, so as not to let him fall: "Now I can see it clearly." ”

Wang Xiaolai nodded: "Ah, I saw it, what's wrong?" ”

Yuluocheng said: "That star is the general star of Wuhou Lu Gongyou." ”

Wang Xiaolai: "What? ”

Yuluocheng said: "That is to say, Hou Ye Lu has had an accident now." ”

In the words of Yuluocheng, Wang Xiaolai blew up: "What are you talking about?" Something happened to Hou Ye Lu? ”

Yuluocheng nodded: "Yes, Sui Yang must be a mess now." ”

"No, that's Lu Gongyou, Lu is invincible, who can let him have an accident."

Yuluocheng shook his head and said that he didn't know: "I'm the same as you, how can I know." ”

Wang Xiaolai was anxious: "It's all you, you have to take me to the land of the Three Barbarians to find some secrets, the secret of the bullshit didn't find, I found a broken scabbard, and the murderous Lu Hou Ye had an accident, I told you that the surname is Yu, if Your Majesty also has something, I will not finish with you." ”

Rain falls on the city: "···"

That is, Yuluocheng has a good temper, plus Wang Xiaolai is in a hurry now, dare to talk to Yuluocheng like this, you are any person, who dares to grin at Yuluocheng? That's just a greasy one.

"You're not hurrying anymore!" Wang Xiaolai was also in a hurry and urged.

Yuluocheng nodded, sped up his speed, and flew towards Daxing City faster than before.

It turned out that it took more than half a month to take the land route, but as a result, it was only one day, and Yuluo City took Wang Xiao to the outside of Daxing City.

It's just that the uninterrupted rush in the middle made Yuluocheng's face a little pale.

After landing on the ground, Wang Xiaolai ran towards the city without saying a word, and when he was about to move, Yuluocheng called out to him: "Slow down." ”

Wang Xiaolai turned around.

Yuluocheng took off the scabbard from behind his back and handed it over: "Take it." ”

Wang Xiaolai was impatient: "You can keep it for yourself as a souvenir." ”

Yuluocheng shook his head: "No, you take it yourself." ”

Seeing that Yuluocheng was so persistent, Wang Xiaolai had no other good way, so he had to stomp his feet, pick it up and hang it on his back, and go with a cigarette.

As soon as he entered the city gate, Wang Xiaolai felt the feeling of depression that came to his face.

This feeling will be more prosperous than Zhao Suigang's rebellion.

All the shops are closed, and there is no business anymore, and the streets are full of people who want to leave the city, and if it were not for the order of the empress to stop them, I am afraid that after a few days' work, the people would run away.

Wang Xiaolai walked in the crowd, the crowd was surging, crowding around, almost squeezing him out of the city.

After all his efforts, he finally came to the noon gate of the palace, Wang Xiaolai looked at the clothes on his body, and on the way to squeeze in, he had already changed into a tattered appearance, and on his face, he didn't know who caught the flowers.

"I'm a man, if it's a girl, I won't be squeezed into pregnancy." Wang Xiaolai thought back to the experience just now, and couldn't help but tremble.

The general guarding the noon gate saw Wang Xiaolai, who was crowded all the way over, like a beggar, and immediately stepped forward to stop: "Stop, the palace is heavy, idle people are not allowed to enter, hurry up, otherwise, don't blame us for being polite." ”

Wang Xiao came to see the general: "Lao Li, it's me." ”

The general was stunned when he heard it: "This voice is so familiar..."

Wang Xiaolai hurriedly wiped off the ashes on his face with his hands: "I, look, I, Wang Xiaolai." ”

Lao Li was taken aback when he heard this: "Oh, Lord Shizhong, it turned out to be you." ”

Wang Xiaolai couldn't help nodding: "It's me, it's me." ”

Seeing Wang Xiaolai, not only Lao Li, but also the soldiers guarding the city gate bowed their heads and wept: "Lord Shizhong, you can be regarded as back, you don't know, Your Majesty has been in a hurry these days." ”

Wang Xiao didn't have time to talk nonsense, but asked directly: "Your Majesty is now." ”

Lao Li pointed in the direction of the imperial study: "I am discussing countermeasures with Lao Xiangguo in the imperial study, my lord, I will go and report to you." ”

Wang Xiaolai waved his hand directly: "No, the time is urgent, I'll go by myself." ”

As he spoke, he shook off his steps and rushed inside.
