In the snowy night of Chang'an City, a green light is like a bean, and the person before the case has not yet slept.

In the first battle of Cangxue City, more than 20,000 enemies were annihilated and a complete victory. The next day, the wolf soldiers made a comeback, once again set a feat of beheading 8,000, and beheaded the wolf soldiers' main general, the wolf Tianding!

Qin Guan, the imperial historian, recited the battle report from the front line under the light, and his excitement was overflowing. This kind of feats can be said to be unprecedented since the Great War of the Northern Regions. He sighed, he only hated that time could not be turned back fifty years, if he was in his prime, then he would definitely go to the Northern Regions to wait for the Dan, and fight with the wolf clan who invaded the Central Plains to serve his family and country!

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. Qin Guan trembled and pushed open the door, the wind and snow swept in with the wind, and when the imperial doctor squinted his cloudy eyes and looked carefully, it was a dragon guard in front of the palace in Changle Palace. You Longwei is a close attendant who swears allegiance to the royal family with his life. He avoided the soldiers who patrolled the house at night, and when he came here late at night, he must have something important.

Qin Guan saw that this person was actually You Longwei beside the Son of Heaven, so he didn't dare to slack off. Hurriedly cover the door and please come into the house to talk.

"Your Majesty is invited. Please follow me into the palace as soon as possible, Your Majesty he ...... Would like to see you in person......"

"Your Majesty...... Finally remembered the old minister......"

When Qin Guan heard this, he was really overjoyed. Every day, he would lead his ministers to wait in front of the gate of Changle Palace, but he did not see His Majesty go to the court to listen to the government for several days. Qin Guan, who has been a minister for many years, knows in his heart that King Tang has never been the kind of mediocre son who is willing to be gentle in the countryside, but if today's son ordered him to enter the palace secretly and summoned him late at night, he somewhat understood His Majesty's hardships.

After blowing out the lights, Qin Guan quietly followed the You Longwei out of the mansion, and entered the Son of Heaven's bedroom from the underground secret passage. The existence of this secret passage into the palace is only known to people of royal blood, and this secret passage was originally built for the purpose of one day, the descendants of the royal family to avoid rebellion and refuge. The first time Qin Guan stepped into it, he couldn't help but feel the hardships of the imperial road.

There was a thousand-year-old shark fire inside the secret passage, and stepping on the bright tunnel stretched forward, Qin Guan finally came to the dormitory under the guidance of You Longwei. The stone door is opened with a mechanism, and there is an empty hot spring pool connected to the underground stone wall. As soon as the stone door was opened, Qin Guan was stunned to see His Majesty the Son of Heaven dressed in brocade clothes, sitting quietly in this spring room.

Changle Palace is connected to Luming South Mountain, which is designated as the Royal Dragon Forest in the distance, and there are hundreds of naturally generated hot springs underground. Therefore, in the interior of Changle Palace, there are hundreds of spring rooms for the Son of Heaven to enjoy. And the entrance to the secret passage of this Changle Palace is one of these hundreds of spring rooms. If it weren't for the emperor in the palace, others wouldn't know that there was a secret passage connecting to the outside world here.

"Imperial Historian Qin Guan knocks to see my emperor! My emperor, long live, long live, long live!"

Seeing the Son of Heaven with a warm smile, waiting for his visit here. Qin Guanshan shouted long live, and immediately bowed to the ground. At this time, he was finally able to meet the Son of Heaven, and even though he had a thousand words, he couldn't help but shed sentimental tears for it. These tears are not only flowing for the Son of Heaven, but also for the broken family and country!

"Aiqing, please get up quickly, these days, I've suffered you......"

When King Tang saw Qin Guan, he also burst into tears, stood up, and personally lifted his old body from the ground. For so many years, Qin Guan, the imperial historian, has done his best for the country, he first served the first king, and now after Tang Feng ascended the throne, Qin Guan is dying of old age, but he still shares his worries for the son of heaven with his old body. It can be described as a pillar of the elders of the DPRK and China.

"Your Majesty...... Now the border is in a hurry, and the five cities of Stardew City, Beiyan City, Lingxi City, Moon Shadow City, and Qianren City have all fallen. At present, the wolf soldiers are still launching a fierce attack on Cangxue City. I implore Your Majesty to announce to the world tomorrow with the sword of the Son of Heaven and order all parties to send troops to aid Chang'an, as long as the imperial capital Chang'an can hold on. We still have a chance to live!"

Qin Guan was already an old dragon bell, and after saying this, he coughed and wheezed, and he held the arm of the Son of Heaven with a trembling palm, expecting him to command the world to recapture the fallen city from the hands of the wolf clan and calm the national disaster that enveloped the world.

"Aiqing, I am in Changle Palace, and I don't know the news of the outside world. In the eyes of the courtiers, I was drunk and dreamed of my hometown day and night. As everyone knows, I am restless here, and the prime minister sent his beloved daughter to Changle Palace, which is obviously a concubine, but it is really grounded!"

"Now I am confined to this place by the prime minister's design, and I will not go to the court. All opportunities in the DPRK and China are judged by the prime minister. I've been patient for a long time. However, Shen Xiang is deeply rooted, and as far as I know, most of the ministers in the court are dependent on him. If I want to be held responsible, there are many people who will take the blame for it. Now I have no choice but to summon Aiqing into the palace late at night to discuss countermeasures. ”

Tang Feng was anxious, but in his eyes, there was a flame of unwillingness. Thinking about the emperor who created the foundation of the Tang Dynasty, in this generation, as the Son of Heaven, he was deceived by powerful ministers everywhere. One day, if he can walk out of this deep palace, then he will inevitably swing his sword to sweep away the filth in the world, so that the offended ministers will be subdued, and Haiyu will be clear!

"Your Majesty is worry-free, although Shen Xiang is powerful, the old minister has already arranged a countermeasure to deal with Shen Xiang. In the matter of going to Yunzhou, not only Shen Xiang was investigating, but even the old ministers secretly found out a lot of truths. The old minister has brought this pair of enemies together, and when things evolve to maturity, that immortal will definitely assist His Majesty, except for the bane like Shen Xiang!"

Talking about Shen Xiang, who covered the sky with his hand in the court, Qin Guan stroked his beard and said calmly.

Before the start of the Northern Regions War, Qin Guan made a quick decision, did two things, and sent two people. The first is to send a message from Chang'an to the Shenchuan Linghe Division to ask for help from the Xuanzhen faction. The second is to visit Princess Huashan at night, saying that Princess Huashan will go to the border pass, use the status of Princess Huashan to boost the morale of the army, and delay time as much as possible to save the country.

And there is one most important decision hidden in his heart. This matter must be launched at the most critical time. He is now in his twilight years, and his life is like a candle that is about to be extinguished, but he has made up his mind. As long as the rivers and mountains need him, when Datang needs him. He was determined to overturn the lamp once and for all, and use the last flame of his soul to illuminate the long night......

"Your Majesty, the old minister, Imperial Doctor Qin Guan is ready...... I am willing to give everything I have for the Tang Dynasty!"

Qin Guan straightened his rickety back, and in the candlelight, his figure was so majestic that it was awe-inspiring.

"Aiqing, don't!" Tang Wang was shocked, grabbed Qin Guan's sleeve, and said sadly: "Aiqing, you are the pillar of the court, my right-hand man." is more like my father, my teacher. Only Aiqing, you can't do this!"

"Your Majesty...... The old minister received the grace of the two dynasties of the Tang Dynasty, although he was full of liver and brain, it was difficult to repay the emperor's grace. ”

Qin Guan looked at the long night in the snow outside the curtain, and let out a sad long laugh. said: "Compared to those unknown soldiers who fought bloody battles on the border gates and finally buried their bones. The name of the old minister is about to remain in history, and he is already content. If the remnants of the old minister are lived, they can awaken the sleeping world of Kyushu. Then Lao Chen is willing to abandon all this for the sake of his family and country. ”

"When the morning comes, Your Majesty will be able to take advantage of this storm that swept Chang'an to sit down again in the dragon chair above the court. At that time, Your Majesty must not drive troops north and drive out foreign races. Restore the mountains and rivers of the Tang Dynasty!"

Qin Guan bowed to the ground again, exchanged tears, and then turned away. King Tang was full of tears, and let Qin Guan in front of him bow three times, before ordering the You Longwei to lead Qin Guan out of the tunnel and return to the mansion.

"Loyal Minister...... God bless my Tang Dynasty, it is really my Tang Dynasty's fortune to have such a loyal and good minister!" The Tang King was full of sorrow, but now only Qin Guan can spread the world with brilliance and dispel this endless night. He can make thousands of brave and ambitious people in Zhongzhou sweat for their families and countries. It is enough to make those thieves who steal the country afraid of this light!

......

Early the next morning, there was a severe earthquake between the DPRK and China. Qin Guan, the imperial historian, held the battle report of the border city and hung it under the gate of Changle Palace at the age of ninety-five.

This time, the ministers who supported Shen Xiang did not stop the loyal ministers who dared to die for the country. The loyal ministers desperately rushed through the blockade of the Shen Mansion guards, flocked to the court, and shouted long live, which made Chang'an shake, and invited the Son of Heaven to enter the court!

At this time, the Son of Heaven in the dormitory, surrounded by You Longwei, put on the Pingtian crown and put on the dragon robe. Along the road, but those who dared to obstruct the royal driver were all beheaded. The people watched on the road, and the Son of Heaven drove straight into the Chang'an Dynasty. was only frightened that Shen Xiangwei was terrified, for fear that the cover-up of the war report would be exposed, so he had to say that he was sick. The two gates of the Prime Minister's Mansion were closed, and no one was seen.

"Your Majesty, the guard of Stardew City, Ding Shenfeng, coexisted and died with the city, defended the city for ten days, and died in battle!"

"Your Majesty, Zhenbei Gong Li Chun, the old general swears to live and die with the city. On the day the city is broken, he will die in battle!"

"Your Majesty, Liu Shouzhi, the defender of Lingxi City, coexisted and died with the city, and on the day the city was broken, he died in battle!"

"Your Majesty, Lin Bingzhong, the guard of Qianren City, will live and die with the city, and on the day the city is broken, he will die in battle!"

......

A volume of battle reports that had been hidden in the snow for many days were all in the court at this time, and they were recited by the Taiwei Dong Xing in a heavy voice. This blood-stained war letter is mixed with the sorrow of many families and countries. Among the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for their families and countries, especially Li Chun, the Duke of Zhenbei, who was over the age of old and still died on the battlefield for his family and country. The ambition is not unswerving, and there is a poem that says:

The lonely lamp in the twilight rain paints the border city with ink.

It's a pity that Guo Fengxiao is determined, and the plan is set in Liaodong.

If you want to reward your family and country, you will show Hongpeng in the wind.

The hair is as pale as snow, and it still shows its grandeur.

......

"Today, I posthumously crown the imperial historian Qin Guan as the protector of the country. Li Chun, the prince of Zhenbei, is the king of the northern wild goose. Received a state funeral by the royal family. The rest of the martyred generals were posthumously crowned as liehous. The soldiers who died at the border pass, but some joined the army and were recorded. Each household will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver, and the children and grandchildren will be exempted from taxation and forced labor for life. ”

From now on, with the power of Jizhou, Yongzhou, Liangzhou, and the three states, we will increase troops to the imperial capital Chang'an. In addition, mobilize 30,000 dragon phoenix iron horsemen to gallop to Cangxue City immediately, and escort my beloved daughter and the soldiers who are fighting on the front line back to Chang'an!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

The ministers of the court and the mountains shouted and danced. A ray of heavenly light broke through the stratus clouds and spread in the Chang'an Treasure Hall. Make Zhongzhou thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, glorious thousands of miles. And the wisp of loyal soul that stayed in the sky above Changle Palace was finally relieved and went away with the wind.
