Cangming Dynasty.
In the Royal Palace of Cangming Capital City, all the civil and military officials of the Cangming Dynasty gathered in the palace hall. Most of them looked at the prince Li Canghai who was sitting on the throne with shocked and angry expressions.
"His Royal Highness, you did not discuss with us and used the Tiger Talisman to mobilize troops to the border of Xicheng without authorization. What exactly do you want to do?"
Yan Tianci, the Minister of Punishment, stood in the center of the hall, looked at Li Canghai on the throne, and asked angrily.
One month ago, Cangming, Aogu, and Murong dynasties jointly sent troops to invade Daxia. In the end, the armies of Cangming and Aogu were almost completely wiped out. Less than a thousand soldiers returned alive. Even the monarchs of the two dynasties were imprisoned in Daxia.
A country cannot be without its owner for a day.
At the suggestion of the officials, the prince Li Canghai was temporarily appointed as the king, and the officials, both civil and military, assisted him in handling government affairs.
After the last war, the Cangming Dynasty lost more than half of its troops. Even if they wanted to fight again, they were unable to do anything.
Daxia's strength now is really terrifying!
Especially since this month, through the spies' reports, Daxia's strength is basically growing every day!
Under this situation, most officials, including Yan Tianci, did not agree to send troops to Daxia again. They just wanted to find ways to ease the relationship with Daxia and rescue Li Cangming, even if they had to pay some price.
Because the Cangming Dynasty was really in danger at the moment. Not only did they have to find ways to ease the relationship with Daxia, but they also had to prevent other dynasties from taking advantage of the situation and sending troops against the Cangming Dynasty.
Especially the Murong Dynasty in the south!
In the last battle, both the Cangming Dynasty and the Ogu Dynasty suffered heavy losses. One country lost more than half of its troops and was almost crippled!
Only the Murong dynasty lost only two million troops before returning to the dynasty, and the king Murong Fu was also safe and sound.
Later, after careful analysis through the reports of the soldiers who came back alive, the Cangming officials still didn't understand that they had been tricked by Murong Fu!
Murong Fu instigated the Cangming Dynasty and the Augu Dynasty to hold Daxia back, while the Murong Dynasty army took the opportunity to evacuate.
However, even if they knew that they were tricked by Murong Fu, with the current strength of the Cangming Dynasty, they still had no ability to cause trouble for the Murong Dynasty.
Instead, we have to be on guard at all times, worrying that the Murong Dynasty will take advantage of the situation and send troops against the Cangming Dynasty.
Therefore, while the Cangming Dynasty was on guard against the Murong Dynasty, it was trying to find ways to ease relations with Daxia and rescue Li Cangming.
Although the prince Li Canghai has some courage, he still lacks prestige and ability and is unable to take charge of the overall situation.
Only by rescuing Li Cangming can we solve this predicament. Otherwise, if this situation continues for a long time, Cangming will be in danger!
However, the officials did not expect that at this critical moment, Li Canghai would act arbitrarily and mobilize troops to the border of Xicheng without telling them.
Xicheng is adjacent to the border of Daxia Mountain Pass. The purpose of dispatching troops to Xicheng is self-evident. This is to prepare to use troops against Daxia!
Knowing this, all civil and military officials were shocked and angry.
Today's Daxia is a fierce tiger that chooses and devours people!
Especially Han Xin, the commander of Shanyu Pass.
In the last war, nine out of ten Cangming's armies were lost in the hands of this man.
Now that it has only been a month since the last war, all the officials are trying to find ways to ease the relationship with Daxia, and Daxia may not be able to spare any time to deal with Cangming.
So both sides were safe for the time being.
But at this time, Li Canghai actually dispatched troops to Xicheng again, hoping to use troops against Daxia.
This is simply a way to die!
If because of this incident, the Daxia Dynasty desperately counterattacks Cangming, the Cangming Dynasty will be unable to resist it. At the least, the national power will be greatly reduced, and at the worst, it will be impossible to destroy the country outright!
At this moment, all the civil and military officials were extremely anxious and looked at Li Canghai on the throne with shock and anger.
No matter what, he must stop his death-seeking behavior.
And on the throne.
Li Canghai, who looked like a young man, faced the shocked and angry gazes of the civil and military officials. His face was expressionless and unwavering.
Glancing at Yan Tianci, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, who spoke, Li Canghai said calmly: "The reason for the deployment of troops is naturally to protect me, Cangming. The Western Great Xia is watching with eager eyes, so we have to guard against it."
"fart!"
Yan Tianci said angrily: "Does Your Highness know Da Xia's hatred towards our dynasty now? Our dynasty's situation is in jeopardy now. We are all trying to find ways to contact Da Xia and redeem the king, but His Highness is dispatching troops to the West City at this time. If it causes Da Xia’s misunderstanding, if you are not careful, our court will be doomed!"
"For the sake of the survival of our dynasty, please Your Highness to hand over the Tiger Talisman and order the withdrawal of troops!"
The other officials also stepped forward at the same time, glared at Li Canghai, and said loudly: "Your Highness, please hand over the tiger talisman and order the withdrawal of troops!"
Seeing this scene, Li Canghai narrowed his eyes slightly, with a cold light flickering in his eyes, and said in a sinister tone: "Now I am the master of the Cangming Dynasty, do you want to force me into the palace?"
Yan Tianci looked cold and solemnly said: "Your Highness is only acting as an agent of the government! Besides, I also care about the survival of our dynasty. After the king is rescued, I am willing to take the initiative to be punished!"
Act on behalf of the government!
The implication is that he does not recognize the identity of the master mentioned by Li Canghai.
Li Canghai's eyes became even colder, "What if Gu Ruo insists on doing this?"
"Then I'll forgive you for being rude!"
Yan Tianci said coldly: "Your Highness, please go back to the East Palace to rest. From now on, your Highness will not have to worry about matters in the court!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of dense footsteps, and at the entrance of the hall, dense guards holding halberds broke in, full of murderous intent!
Seeing this scene, the ministers were a little shocked. When they came to their senses, several ministers hesitated to speak, but in the end they did not speak.
"Okay! Good! Very good!"
Looking at the scene in the palace, Li Canghai stood up slowly, his eyes exuding cold murderous intent, staring at Yan Tianci: "Prince Gu Nai Cangming, have you ever thought about the consequences of doing this?"
"I am also considering the survival of our dynasty!" Yan Tianci remained unmoved.
"hehe!"
Li Canghai felt sad in his heart, sneered, closed his eyes slowly, and said no more.
Then, without waiting for Yan Tianci to speak, he opened his eyes in vain, with a cold look in his eyes, "Come here! Yan Tianci's offending will be punished according to law!"
After the words fell, the guards in the palace looked at each other with some commotion, but in the end no one chose to take action.
Seeing this scene, a flash of sarcasm flashed in Yan Tianci's eyes.
Li Cangming will not die, and Li Canghai will always be the prince.
What's more, the palace guard force has long been under his control. Now that Li Cangming is committing suicide, no one will care about his identity as the prince and listen to his orders.
"Well……"
However, just then!
With a muffled groan, Yan Tianci suddenly stiffened and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
"you……"
Yan Tianci turned around tremblingly, looking at a figure in black who appeared behind him at some point, with a hint of disbelief in his eyes.
Then, his pupils gradually dilated, and his body turned into dots of starlight and disappeared into the hall.
