White Emperor City, Yanwang Palace.

In the main hall, Bai Hanwen's black hair had already grown a lot of white hair, and he was sitting on the throne with his eyes closed at a loss at this time, and the ministers below were also discussing.

At this time, a gorgeously dressed old man walked in slowly outside the main hall, and saluted respectfully: "King, the people in the city have all evacuated the White Emperor City, but. ”

At this moment, Bai Hanwen has long since lost his former appearance, and now he looks like a walking corpse.

When Bai Hanwen saw someone reporting, he opened his eyes and said weakly: "Li Xiangguo, get up, but what, say it."

Li Xiangguo said with a face full of shame: "But the soldiers who followed the escort also escaped together, and the ministers were guilty, and they failed to take care of them, and asked the king to convict." ”

Bai Hanwen sighed and said: "Everyone in the current White Emperor City is in danger, and it is normal for people to escape, Li Xiangguo, this can't blame you, get up quickly." ”

After seeing Li Xiangguo get up, Bai Hanwen said to the ministers in the main hall again: "The current White Emperor City is already panicked, pass on my last order, everyone who wants to leave can go, and the widow will forgive them for their innocence." ”

"The king, the ministers swear to live and die with the Yan Kingdom. All the ministers knelt down in unison, tears in their eyes.

Bai Hanwen suddenly shouted loudly: "As long as you live, there is hope, you must go, get out of me." ”

Regardless of Bai Hanwen's insults, the ministers still said as one: "The king, the ministers swear to live and die with the Yan Kingdom. ”

Bai Hanwen sighed, and then said with high morale: "Hey, why do you bother. Okay, then let Yan Shicheng take a look at my Da Yan's monarchs and ministers, all of whom are iron-clad men. ”

At this time, Li Xiangguo suddenly said: "We still have close to 20,000 elite soldiers, and there is enough food and grass in the city, when Yan Shicheng comes, we may not lose." ”

"What if you add me. Outside the main hall, Bai Yanfei's confident voice came.

"The ministers pay a visit to the King of Ease. The ministers saw the King of Freedom and the four Praetorian Guards striding in, and saluted respectfully.

King Xiaoyao smiled faintly and said, "Ministers, you don't have to salute. ”

Then he hugged his fist towards Bai Hanwen and said, "Big brother, I'm back." ”

Bai Hanwen looked at Bai Yanfei intently, and Bai Yanfei also looked at Bai Hanwen, and about a minute later, the two of them laughed at the same time.

When the ministers saw this, they had no choice but to disperse.

"Brother, now that you're back, have you settled Qin'er and the children?" Bai Hanwen asked with a smile.

Bai Yanfei said lightly: "No, we came back together." ”

Seeing that Bai Yanfei was a little confident when he spoke, Bai Hanwen wanted to be angry but couldn't get angry, but instead said questioningly: "Brother, why is this?"

"Father, our Bai family does not have the saying that we are greedy for life and afraid of death, rather than surviving, it is better to die in battle, and hope that my father will be fulfilled. At this time, Bai Shen and everyone came in, and the little princess bowed slightly and said righteously.

Bai Hanwen's face changed in an instant, and he said irritablely: "Nonsense." ”

Before everyone could speak, he shouted loudly at Bai Yanfei: "Bai Yanfei, are you asking them to die together?"

Bai Yanfei didn't pay any attention to Bai Hanwen's angry tone, and just said lightly, "We may not lose. ”

After that, he gave Bai Hanwen a look, and Bai Hanwen also understood what this meant, and then said softly to everyone: "Qin'er, take everyone to your dormitory first." ”

Bai Yanfei suddenly stopped: "Slow, Shen'er stays." ”

Although Bai Hanwen had doubts, he could only agree.

Seeing everyone retreating, Bai Hanwen said impatiently: "Brother, tell me what the solution is." ”

Bai Yanfei smiled faintly and said, "It's Shen'er's strategy." ”

"Oh?" Bai Hanwen frowned in disbelief, and asked at Bai Shen suspiciously, "Shen'er, what do you think?"

"Returning to the king, a thousand years ago, the military sanctuary said, 'Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles.'" 'The reason why Yan Shicheng rebelled was nothing more than a strategist named 'Zhai Ning' by his side, master tomorrow you will lead tens of thousands of troops to set off from Yanmen, but you are only allowed to lose, not to win. Bai Shen said with an oath.

The more Bai Yanfei listened, the more bizarre it became, and asked suspiciously: "A good confidant knows himself and his opponent, and he will not be defeated in a hundred battles, but why is he only allowed to lose?

Bai Shen smiled faintly and said: "Master, when I was on the mountain, what I said was false, and Zhai Ning would definitely be able to see at a glance the kind of indiscriminate means, so this is my real tactic." ”

Bai Yanfei was about to say something, but was interrupted by Bai Hanwen, and said anxiously to Bai Shen: "Go on." ”

"The master doesn't know tactics, the world knows this. When he said this, he glanced at Bai Yanfei embarrassedly, and just saw Bai Yanfei glaring at him fiercely.

Bai Shen smiled embarrassedly, and then said: "The master's skill can shoot a person to death with dragon scales a hundred steps away, Yan Shicheng must be wearing armor that can restrain the master, so the master must kill Zhai Ning this time, and when killing Zhai Ning, he must pretend to kill the wrong person, and then." ”

Bai Yanfei frowned, interrupted Bai Shen's speech, and asked suspiciously: "I can do this, but killing a Zhai Ning can't cause any harm to Yan Shicheng's army, Yan Shicheng will still attack White Emperor City." ”

Bai Hanwen glared at Bai Yanfei and hurriedly said, "Don't interject, let Shen'er continue." ”

Bai Shen suddenly became serious, and then said: "Then the master will lead all the Praetorian Guards to the battle, and he must be defeated miserably, and the master must be seriously injured when he returns. ”

Bai Hanwen stopped talking when he saw that Bai Shen finished speaking, he didn't know what he was thinking about, and he didn't understand what the reason was, so he asked half-convinced: "Shen'er, why is this, if you take all the troops out, who can stop Yan Shicheng, and why is it defeated?"

Bai Shen said lightly: "King, do you think that the 20,000 soldiers led by the master, and most of them are strong men temporarily selected from among the people, do you think they can beat Yan Shicheng's 100,000 army?"

Bai Hanwen said loudly angrily: "Do you want these 20,000 people to lose their lives in vain?" ”

Bai Shen lowered his head and was silent for a while, then sighed and continued: "This is the only way to defeat Yan Shicheng, you must do what I say, otherwise not only the 20,000 soldiers will die, but we will all die, and the people of the whole city will also die." ”

Bai Hanwen closed his eyes and said with tears in his eyes, "Okay." ”

After speaking, he walked towards the outside of the main hall, and Bai Yanfei was about to stop him when he heard Bai Hanwen say lonely: "The talisman is in the widow's study. ”

Looking at Bai Hanwen's lonely back, like an old man at dusk, Bai Yanfei's master and apprentice sighed in unison.

There was silence in the hall, and after a while, Bai Shen said lightly: "Master, you go and get the talisman, after you take it, you can order the troops and set off, remember one thing, Ci is not in charge of the soldiers." ”

Bai Yanfei was silent after hearing this, turned around and walked towards Bai Hanwen's study.

After Bai Yan flew away, Bai Shen was left alone in the main hall, Bai Shen walked towards the steps of the main hall, slowly sat on the steps of the main hall, and fell asleep unconsciously.

In his sleep, he vaguely felt that someone was touching him, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the little princess was sitting next to her with a dog tail grass in a little naughty.

Bai Shen saw that the little princess was a little naughty and teasing herself, it seemed that Bai Zhi didn't know what was being discussed in the hall.

Bai Shen pretended to be indifferent, and said lightly, "Why are you here?"

The little princess stared at Bai Shen with ill intentions and said, "Uncle has led the troops to set off, and almost all the people in the city have gone to see them off, and you, who are apprentices, are not going, so I came to see what you were doing, I really didn't expect you to sleep here." ”

"Master, have you set off?" Bai Shen said lonely.

Seeing Bai Shen's lonely expression, the little princess said to Bai Shen viciously: "Uncle leads the troops into battle, and he is invincible, and the traitor Yan Shicheng is naturally not an opponent, Xiao Bai Shen, what do you mean by this expression." ”

Bai Shen thought about it, he was indeed a little out of shape, suddenly laughed, and said to the little princess: "That's right, my master will definitely bring Yan Shicheng's head back, and we will just wait to drink the celebration wine." ”

When the little princess heard Bai Shen say this, her face became happy again, and she just pulled down her face to say something, but was interrupted by Bai Shen.

Bai Shen pretended to be casual, and still said with a smile: "Your Royal Highness Princess, where is the king now?"

The little princess was puzzled and said, "In the study." ”

"Oh", Bai Shen quickly ran towards the study, and ignored the little princess, only listening to the little princess shouting loudly in the main hall.

In Bai Hanwen's study, only Bai Hanwen stood quietly by the window of the study, looking at the scenery outside the window with blank eyes.

Outside the study, Bai Shen saluted respectfully and said, "Shen'er greets the king." ”

"Come in. Bai Hanwen's lonely voice came from inside.

After entering, I found that there was no one else in the study except Bai Hanwen, standing alone by the window.

Bai Hanwen turned around and saw that Bai Shen was just about to salute, and said in a desolate voice: "No need to salute, just say it." ”

Bai Shen said respectfully, "Great King, do you know where the dagger 'Shadowless' is placed?"

Bai Hanwen's godless eyes lifted slightly, and he said hoarsely, "Shen'er, what are you going to do?"

Bai Shen swore and said: "If you want to kill Yan Shicheng, you must use it." ”

"Come with the widow. Bai Hanwen didn't think about it so much, and after finishing speaking, he slowly walked to the desk and pressed the mechanism in the study, and after the mechanism was activated, a passage slowly appeared on the wall about a distance of more than one meter.

Bai Hanwen suddenly thought in his heart that now the only one who dared to move in Yan Guo was the junior brother, and now that the junior brother had led the troops to the battle, his eyes had recovered and he was staring at Bai Shen deadly.

Bai Hanwen suddenly said, "Shen'er, what do you want to do." ”

Bai Shen smiled faintly: "King, I think you should have guessed. ”

Bai Hanwen stared at Bai Shen and said coldly: "You tell the widow, do you want to use it." ”

"Yes. Bai Shen said without thinking.

"No, the widow is not allowed. Bai Hanwen said in an unquestioning tone.

Bai Shen also said in an unquestioning tone: "If you want to save Yan Kingdom, you can only do this, the king, you can only allow it." ”

Bai Hanwen was shaken slightly, and said in a consultative tone: "Shen'er, do you really want to do this?"

Bai Shen said undoubtedly: "Looking at the current White Emperor City, I'm afraid there is no one more suitable than me." ”

Bai Hanwen suddenly shouted anxiously: "But it is a murder weapon that can confuse people's hearts, even your master is not sure enough to stop it from controlling his mind, I can't give it to you." ”

Seeing that Bai Hanwen was about to activate the mechanism and close the secret door after speaking, Bai Shen suddenly shouted loudly: "King, I am the son of fate, the chosen one, just a dagger, what can I do." ”

Bai Hanwen hesitated for a moment, closed his eyes and continued: "No, Shen'er, I can't let you take this risk. ”

It was too late, but it was fast, and when Bai Hanwen was about to press the mechanism, Bai Shen moved, and slapped Bai Hanwen on the back of the head like the wind, Bai Hanwen was about to say something, but fainted.
