Seeing Xiu Jieting and Du Yunxi turn to him, after a pause, Long Qianye continued: "In the first battle, he personally led the troops, but the deployment and strategy of the army are obviously not his normal level, his focus is not on the art of war, but on what strength to rely on, and this power is not only Han Yu." ”
From the time the two armies faced each other, Long Qianye felt that something was wrong, the atmosphere in the battlefield was a little more gloomy, although the Zhaoyang Army was not greatly affected, but the Ying Zhao Army seemed to be a little different, their attack power was obviously stronger than the news that Long Qianye had mastered.
It's not that Long Qianye's sources are unreliable, it's that Wraiful's army is indeed relying on some invisible power.
"The wraith has cultivated evil arts, and the strength he can rely on is probably not surpassed!" Xiu Jieting furrowed his brows.
"Since we can bring the puppet spirit back, maybe he has encountered something powerful, but this thing seems to be more powerful, not that he controls that thing, but that he is controlled by that thing!"
Twilight Yunxi opened her mouth, and while speaking, she turned around and sat on the soft couch next to her, just after giving birth, her body was too weak, and she felt tired after standing for a while.
Before, she didn't believe in these ghosts and gods, but when she came to this world and saw it, she couldn't help but not believe it.
However, these cultivation things rely on the essence of the sun, moon, heaven and earth to cultivate from the righteous path, such as the puppet spirit, although when I saw it, the demonic qi on its body had not been exhausted, but after using the refining of the Yuwang Neidan, there was no demonic qi on its body.
To put it nicely, the puppet spirit is a decent demon, and even the demon that Xuan Chenzi has admitted is the puppet spirit who has been affected by Twilight Yunxi.
And the wraith that I saw before, he and Buge Ji have obviously changed their bodies, and now it seems that they have more evil nature, and it is that thing that affects them.
"If it were an ordinary army, we would naturally have nothing to worry about, but there are those demonic things, I'm afraid we can't control them!" Long Qianye furrowed his brows.
For so many years, it was he who followed Xiu Jieting to stabilize the wasteland, and even expanded the boundaries of the wasteland, and there was nothing that the human army could not overcome in his eyes, but those evils were not something that ordinary people could resist.
Not to mention it from afar, let's just say that the ghost army a few days ago, if it weren't for the twilight rune paper, I'm afraid that Huangzhou City wouldn't be able to hold it, and this feeling of having nowhere to use strength is really depressing.
"I'm afraid this matter is not as simple as we imagined, in short, now that the Underworld Zhao Army has been defeated, after Zhan Lao and Zhan Yun come back, we will think about it in the long run!" Xiu Jieting moved and sat up straight.
"That's all there is to it now!" Long Qianye replied in a deep voice.
At the moment when Long Qianye's voice landed, the sound of hurried footsteps came from outside again, and everyone looked stunned, turned around, and saw another guard hurrying in.
"Report ...... Report!"
The guard came in, didn't finish a word, and knelt directly on the ground, perhaps because he ran too quickly, and after kneeling, his body slid forward.
"Say!"
Xiu Jieting put down the book in his hand and turned to look at the guard.
"Lord Qiqi, the crown prince is gone!" the soldier's voice was a little nervous.
"What did you say!"
Xiu Jieting's eyes lit up, and the air around him became cold, and without waiting for the guard to answer, he asked again, "What is the situation in the imperial capital now?"
After the death of the first emperor, the crown prince was supposed to ascend the throne, but because of the prince's body, there was no superstar enthronement ceremony, and the domestic situation relied on the prince's breath to maintain the surface calm.
"Return, back to the prince, the second prince deployed in advance, His Royal Highness King Chen did not hold the imperial capital, and has retreated to the border of the imperial capital!" replied the guard.
The first emperor died, and when Xiu Jieting returned to the imperial capital again, he already felt the smell of gunpowder on the battlefield, and the second prince poisoned the prince, which had been found before, but the emperor maintained it and suppressed the matter, but he didn't want to, and the second prince's knife stretched out to him.
Lao Chen in the court is not a fool, although there is no evidence, but it is obvious that the second prince did it, so some people resolutely disagree with the second prince as the new monarch, and turn to the user of King Chen, the situation at that time, some courtiers supported the second prince, some supported King Chen, and maintained a neutral attitude, no one supported it.
The situation in the court is becoming increasingly tense, and the troops of the second prince and King Chen are also placed around the imperial capital, just waiting for a reason to send troops.
Now the crown prince, the two sides finally can't hold it back, but the second prince is thoughtful, and he deployed one step in advance, and occupied the palace before King Chen made a move, and the most important thing is that there is also a master next to the second prince - Ge Tian.
Xiao Sanyuan is that Ge Tian's subordinate, the ability to summon evil spirits, is also given to Xiao Sanyuan by Ge Tian, to put it bluntly, Xiao Sanyuan learned medical skills from Xuan Chenzi, but other skills were learned from Ge Tian.
When he went to the imperial capital with Xiu Jieting before, Twilight Yunxi once had a relationship with Ge Tian, knowing that Ge Tian was a person from the ghost domain and was good at using witchcraft, but he didn't seem to know what he was now.
"No wonder Xiao Sanyuan made a move, it turned out that it was a good time for them to choose!"
Acting at the critical moment of Xiujieting's detoxification, and ending the prince's life at the same time, these two things were in the plan of the second prince.
Long Qianye twisted his brows and turned to Xiu Jieting: "Lord Wang, ...... over there of King Chen"
Last time, because Du Yunxi cured Princess Chen's illness, King Chen also helped them out of the siege many times in the imperial capital, speaking of which, although King Chen and Xiu Jieting are not mutually trusting, but compared to the rest of the royal family, their relationship is closer.
The most important thing is that Pengcheng's army and King Chen are also together, even if it is for Pengcheng, they can't sit idly by at such a time.
"Spread the order of the king, and order Pengyi to lead 30,000 troops to respond!" Xiu Jieting's voice exuded a shocking atmosphere.
"Yes!"
The guards were about to go out, but before they went out, they saw a little Taoist priest arrive at the door.
"Pass!" replied Xiu Jieting.
The little Taoist priest came in and saluted Xiu Jieting and Du Yunxi, and saw Xiu Jieting wave his hand and stand up straight.
"Lord Wang, Master has something to say!" the little Taoist priest said.
"Say!"
Xiu Jieting responded, his eyes swept over the little Taoist.
"Master just calculated that the imperial capital is in turmoil, and King Chen and General Peng may not be able to hold on!" the little Taoist priest spoke.
"He's just in time, the news has already come back! This king will send troops to help!"
No one will question Xuan Chenzi's ability, and it is not surprising that he can calculate it, but now that the little Taoist priest has come over to spread the word, I am afraid that there are other things to explain.
Sure enough, as soon as Xiu Jieting's words landed, the little Taoist priest immediately said: "Master also knows that the prince will send troops to go, but there is a master next to the second prince, and I am afraid that things are not as simple as they seem." ”
"What do you think?" asked Xiu Jieting.
"Master invited himself to go with the army, that person is too evil, if the two armies fight on the border of the imperial capital, it will definitely implicate the surrounding people, and the consequences will be more serious than imagined!"
The little Taoist priest repeated Xuan Chenzi's words word for word.
The master in his mouth is Ge Tian.
If the two armies are fighting, as long as the battlefield is not in the city, the people may still be able to escape, but if Ge Tian makes a move, those evil spirits will attack indiscriminately, as long as there are people, they will not be spared, and after the first battle, maybe a city will become a dead city.
Xuan Chenzi is a cultivator, so naturally he can't sit back and watch such a thing happen.
"No! Xuan Chenzi's injury is not healed yet, even if he goes, he can't sit still!"
Without waiting for Xiu Jieting to speak, Twilight Yunxi interrupted the little Taoist first.
Xuan Chenzi's injury is said to be serious, but it is actually not serious, it's just that the bumpy journey will trigger the wound, and if it is infected, it will be troublesome!
Listening to Twilight Yunxi's words, Xiu Jieting also twisted his brows, and he agreed with Twilight Yunxi.
"Master said, he has his own measure, the poison on his body has been resolved, and he has the best medicine for the princess's injuries, such a wound can be healed after a few days of rest, during the march, the cushion of the carriage is doubled, there will be no problem, the matter is urgent, please ask the prince and the princess for permission!"
After speaking, the little Taoist priest gave a salute to Twilight Yunxi and Xiu Jieting.
Twilight Yunxi and Xiu Jieting exchanged glances with each other, and the two of them were obviously a little worried on their faces, but they also knew that Xuan Chenzi asked the little Taoist priest to bring the words to this point, they couldn't persuade them, he was staring at Ge Tian when he was in the imperial capital, and now that Ge Tian was going to make a move, he naturally couldn't sit still.
Most importantly, twilight
"That's it, he can go if he wants!"
Xiu Jieting responded, paused, raised his head again, and said, "Send someone to remodel the carriage and make it suitable for lying down, and in addition, send a few people to prepare properly." ”
"Yes!"
The guard turned and walked out.
The footsteps grew farther and farther away, and as the guard left, the faces of everyone in the room sank.
A wave of unsettled waves rose again, and the child was born, but the breath in my heart did not come out, but became more and more gloomy, as if there were heavier things to happen next, such as the current affairs in the imperial capital.
"Lord Wang, I ...... the follow-up troop deployment"
"What is the Ministry of Troops! You honestly heal my wounds before I move!"
Without waiting for Long Qianye to finish speaking, Tianxin reached out and pressed him on the chair, his eyes widened with a warning face.
"You!"
Long Qianye glared, struggled and pulled the wound, and finally sat down honestly.
"In the battle with the Underworld Zhao Kingdom, our army was seriously injured, and now we need to recuperate, and the affairs of the imperial capital have already been dealt with by Pengyi, you can take care of your injuries for the time being!" Xiu Jieting looked at Tianxin's glaring appearance, and also added.
"But ......"
"Princess, it's not good, Xiao Shizi's whole body is red, and he can't stop crying!"
At this moment, the nurse hurriedly broke in and knelt on the ground with a plop: "There are a lot of red spots on Xiao Shizi's body, a big one!"
