Chapter 201: Elven Land Crisis
The sun had just risen, the morning sky seemed higher and bluer, the auspicious clouds floated in the sky, and the warm sunlight reflected every jungle and city in the fairy land. There are many jungles in the Elven Land, and the trees are strangely shaped and as high as clouds, even the most prosperous cities look like a jungle when viewed from above.
Standing on the highest tower of the palace, you can see the whole city, and as far as the eye can see, the tall trees are undulating like mountain peaks, the morning dew on the branches and leaves reflects the light like the starry sky, and the houses of various colors and shapes are mixed in the trees, which looks warm and mysterious in this beautiful morning light. And on this special morning, it seems that every corner is filled with a festive atmosphere.
Princess Jean wore a delicate crown encrusted with diamonds, and her flowing hair curled naturally, just like her face, falling quietly down her waist. A white princess dress fell to the top of her feet, and the long skirt at the back spread out on the ground, and the two corners were supported by two blonde elves who were also dressed in white. The long white dress set off the perfect curves of the princess's body, the neckline was open low, a gold necklace hung from the snow-white neck, and a priceless diamond necklace shone brightly, reflecting the beautiful arc formed by her pair of smooth and jade-like breasts when they naturally drooped. Shu Su thin waist, plump buttocks and straight straight, a pair of slender and straight beautiful legs stand leisurely. At this time, Princess Qin was standing on the high tower, standing tall, facing the city, the beautiful scenery in her eyes obviously could not make up for the melancholy in her heart, and a pair of big eyes were stunned.
"Your Highness, you really don't plan to wait for Mo Cong Gongzi to come back!" Yu'er asked softly while holding on to the white jade guardrail on the tower, carefully looking at Qin's face.
At this time, the enthronement ceremony in the palace was ready, and people flocked to the palace like a tidal wave. However, as long as Princess Qin changes her face slightly, no matter what the ceremony will have to be postponed indefinitely. At this time, Mo Cong and Chu Ci were walking on the way back to the Snow King Palace from the Ice Tower, and they were completely ignorant of everything that happened in the Elven Land.
"Don't wait," Qin pursed her red lips, her chest bulged slightly, and she sighed and said, "People have their own affairs, and people don't regard this place as their home, so why should I force it!" After speaking, Qin shook his head helplessly.
After being silent for a moment, Wan'er complained with a hint of resentment on her face: "Mo Cong Gongzi is really, he doesn't care if there is such a big thing at home, the little princess is so cute, I don't think about him at all, wait for him to come back." ”
"What else can you do with him when you come back?" Yu'er pouted and said, "The princess can't say anything, what else can we say?"
"Then don't let him see the little princess!" Wan'er said through gritted teeth.
When the two spoke, they glanced at Qin's face, and this was nothing more than wanting Princess Bo to smile. Qin seemed to be completely unmoved, muttered for a moment, his face became more serious, and in an instant, the king's qi swept through his body, straightened his delicate body, and said solemnly: "Pass the order, the ceremony begins!"
"Yes!" a soldier in full gear stood upright, saluted solemnly, and shouted to the bottom of the tower, "The princess has an order, the ceremony begins!"
Princess Qin gave an order, and the entire palace suddenly became busy. The dignitaries in the palace hall and the envoys of various countries did not dare to slack off, and they all stood up and retreated outside the gate, standing in two neat columns, waiting for the arrival of the princess with respectful faces. has always known that Princess Qin is powerful, and now she is married to the snowy region, so no one dares to question the ability of the new queen.
The guards, all of whom were numbered in white dresses, were already ready. Princess Qin, supported by Yu'er and Wan'er, slowly walked down the tower. The handsome captain of the guard held a shiny saber in his hand, the tip of which was parallel to his white roof with two red bars. Seeing the princess walk out of the door, she immediately stood upright, took a step, and opened the car door cleanly. There was a faint fragrance in the car, but he ignored it, respectfully held the car door, and waited for the princess and several attendants to get into the car, took another step, and gently closed the car door.
In front of the princess's incense cart was a hundred well-groomed guards to open the way, and behind it was a hundred well-groomed guards, followed by a band.
The sound of drums and horns sounded as a long procession escorted the princess through the palace's towers and arched bridges. Finally, he slowly entered the main hall of the palace.
A bright red carpet was laid on a golden road in the main hall compound, and the courtyard was crowded with people. As soon as one of the princess's silver shoes stretched out of the car, the courtyard burst into thunderous applause, and the music was loud, and the music and applause were intertwined, filling the eardrums.
Princess Jean held her head high, looked ahead, and walked slowly. At the entrance of the hall, the old king wore a long beard, dressed in royal robes, and held a scepter made of pure gold and inlaid with red and green gems. An old palace maid beside him was holding his beloved little granddaughter in her arms, as if she was shocked by the solemn scene, the little daughter blinked a pair of big eyes, and her dark pupils looked curiously at the oncoming mother, not crying or making trouble, a little stunned.
When she came to the old king, a few paces away, Princess Qin fell on one knee with tears in her eyes, tears of infinite gratitude and admiration for the old king.
"Son-in-law to meet my father!"
Looking at his daughter's handsome and somewhat dignified face, the old king's hand trembled obviously, straightened up, stepped forward to help his daughter, and said solemnly: "Get up! From now on, this country will be entrusted to you." ”
"The retainers swear allegiance to the elven land, and the people of the elven land. ”
The old king's old and sharp eyes, looking at his daughter's equally sharp and resolute gaze, nodded, and a satisfied smile appeared on his majestic face.
The handover ceremony went very smoothly, and nothing went wrong except for the little princess who urinated on the steps of the main hall at an inopportune time.
The solemn ceremony came to an end, and the celebrations and banquets continued until the afternoon. At sunset, the golden sunset shone on the glorious palace. Surrounded by a group of dignitaries from the country, Princess Jean ascends to a tower next to the city's central square.
He took out the decree stamped with the royal seal, and in front of the tide of people, he announced in a loud voice:
"I declare that the elven land will be completely separated from the jurisdiction of the king of heaven, and from now on, no tribute will be paid to the king of heaven; I declare that the people of the elven land will be exempted from paying taxes for three years, and the people will recuperate and rebuild the elven paradise from now on; I declare that one million troops will be sent to completely exterminate the dark elves. ”
Several orders from Queen Qin spread throughout the country like spring thunder. Such a decree that won the hearts of the people made the people of the entire elven land excited.
For several months, the princess's army drove straight in, and the good news was frequent.
"Princess, the remnants of the Dark Elves have retreated into the jungle of the Dark Grand Canyon. ”
"Oh?" Looking at the soldier sent from the front, Princess Qin smiled gently, "Okay! The monsters in the dark canyon are extremely fierce, so let them fight those fierce beasts! Supplies arrived quickly. ”
After Princess Qin took power, everything in the kingdom was in order, and the princess was miserable when she saw that the people in the country were under heavy pressure to protect the emperor's taxes. At the end of the day of his accession to the throne, he issued a decree proclaiming to the whole country, that from now on, the elven land would no longer worship the king of heaven, and no more taxes would be paid to him, and the people would be exempted from all taxes for three years, so as to relieve the people's suffering. On the other hand, send troops to destroy the dark elves and rebuild the elven land. Several decrees won the hearts of the people, and the light elves had long hated the dark elves who were connected to foreign countries, so they responded one after another, and the princess's army was like a bamboo. The Dark Elves suffered defeats in a row, retreating into the jungle around the Dark Grand Canyon of the Elven Lands.
Princess Qin was already at ease, but unexpectedly, just three months later, the situation was shockingly reversed. The Tiger King received the order of the Great Emperor and led an army of six million to raid the Elven Land, this time the force was fierce, the army broke through the sky like lightning, and the border defenders of the Elven Land were caught off guard and fled in embarrassment, and the army was defeated.
"Your Majesty!" The general who came to report the news had a gloomy face, looked up at the queen who was sitting on the king's throne with a calm face, and said anxiously: "The demon army is divided into three ways, and there are the remnants of the dark elves inside and outside, and now they have killed me in the Nanming Sea, and the momentum is coming rapidly, Your Majesty is fighting or surrendering or making a decision early!"
The Nanming Sea is only two thousand miles away from the central hinterland where the capital of the Elven Land is located, and according to the speed of the demon army, it will soon hit the periphery of the palace, but at the moment, the number of soldiers that can be called in the hands of Princess Qin is only hundreds of thousands, although they are all well-trained elite troops, but with only 500,000 horses to resist the six million demon army, it is undoubtedly a mantis arm as a car, hitting stones with eggs.
"What do you mean?" Qin raised a pair of eyebrows, and his deep and sharp eyes patrolled the dignitaries standing in the hall, and asked tentatively: "Now that the country is in danger, at such a critical juncture, are we fighting or peace?"
A cadre of ministers stood left and right, all with solemn faces, each with their own concerns, including old men with sideburns and young strategists with strict makeup and dignified appearances.
"Your Majesty, the demon army threatens to capture Your Majesty alive, Your Majesty is humiliated by one person, it is equivalent to the humiliation of my elven land, if you surrender at this time, the people will be even more miserable, it is better to fight to the death!" A young military general stepped forward and said decisively, his face as resolute as iron.
As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall, and all kinds of discussions sounded together, and the old lord and the young lord were noisy.
"Oh, if you resist it, I'm afraid the country will be in ruins. ”
"In my opinion, it is better to be like the old king back then, and it is better to make peace. ”
Several old men twisted their beards in their hands, and their dark blue faces clearly showed nostalgia for the old king.
"To make peace means to continue to be a slave to the King of Heaven. ”
"There is absolutely no peace, and it is better to die in battle than to seek perfection in grievances. ”
Hearing the bold words of the young man, several senior ministers immediately cocked their beards and said proudly: "Young man, you must be measured in your words, you can't be rash, I think the situation was so urgent back then, the old king judged the situation and made concessions, in exchange for more than ten years of peace in the kingdom, if this time it is a desperate bet, I am afraid that my elf land will not be guaranteed!"
Princess Qin lowered her eyes and listened to the discussion with a calm face, until when the two groups of people were arguing hotly, she suddenly raised her eyes, and two extremely resolute gazes flashed in a pair of big round eyes.
"Don't say it, pass on my order, order tomorrow, and this king will personally go to battle. Princess Qin's beautiful eyes flowed, and she sneered: "Quickly send someone to the snowy region and Shanmei specially ask for support." Retire!"
Hearing this, the old man was dumbfounded, and cold sweat overflowed on his forehead.
"This, Your Majesty, this is unacceptable!"
Several old ministers knelt on their knees, and when they raised their eyes, the queen had already turned away.
