The empress sat down for a while, chatted with Lu Chen and others, mainly Lu Chen, and then prepared to leave.
She had just regained power, but the Queen Mother's gang had brought the world into disarray. There were countless messes that needed to be cleaned up, and now there was a rebellion in Huangzhou. She was so busy that she couldn't leave the memorial with both hands. She could squeeze out time to come over and congratulate Lu Chen. Expressing your attitude clearly and making him relax is the limit.
After knowing Lu Chen's resolute attitude, she knew that comfort was meaningless.
The final result of the Huangzhou incident is the key.
"His Majesty."
The empress had just stood up and was about to turn around and leave when Lu Chen suddenly spoke and said with great sincerity:
"In the matter of Huangzhou, no matter whether Miss Gu is loyal or treacherous, no matter what the outcome is, please do not interfere with your majesty. Since I have vouched for Miss Gu with my life and property, if she really betrays the imperial court, I should kill her at my neck." , willing to be executed."
"If Your Majesty forcibly obstructs it, the reputation of the humble minister will be small, and the sanctity of Your Majesty will be greatly harmed. Even if the humble minister dies, he will never allow His Majesty's sanctity to be harmed!"
Hearing these affectionate words, the empress couldn't help but tremble slightly.
But for just a moment, she hid her true side well.
"Don't worry, Lu Qing."
She thought for a moment and nodded slightly.
"I will definitely give you your full trust."
Hearing this, Lu Chen suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, while Liu Dongyang and others on the side looked at Lu Chen with extremely complicated eyes.
They wanted to persuade him, but Lu Chen was too determined and could not be swayed. Forcibly persuading him was like cutting his flesh with a slow knife.
For a moment, they didn't know what to do and could only let the situation develop.
But watching Lu Chen, such a valuable talent, step by step towards the abyss, they were unwilling to give in and always wanted to give him a hand.
Lu Chen naturally didn't know what they thought. After getting the answer he wanted, he saluted the empress and said in a loud voice:
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Lu Qing, you're welcome."
The empress shook her head, then said a few words, turned around, and left the Lu family.
After returning to the Zichen Palace in Ziji City, she just sat down and slowly closed her eyes. While the Holy Spirit surged, she silently said in her heart:
"Brother Royal."
The magical spell to connect the holy relic suddenly activated.
The next second, Jiang Chengdao's majestic voice sounded in her ears.
"I'm here, Your Majesty. What are your orders?"
The empress got straight to the point and said silently: "How is the situation over there in Huangzhou?"
"In reply to Your Majesty, the offensive of the rebel vanguard has been disrupted. Today our army has wiped out more than 50,000 enemies and killed and captured ten enemy generals. It can be said to be a complete victory."
After hearing this result, the empress suddenly looked slightly relieved, but the tired look on her face became more and more obvious.
Activating the supreme holy magic in the jade seal provides the Holy King with a barrier of heaven from a distance, allowing him to use a certain degree of saint power in the world. It is still too reluctant for her now.
And the farther the distance, the greater the consumption of Holy Spirit power.
Suzhou and other places are more than ten thousand miles away from Luojing. The Holy King used the power of the Saint to fight with all his strength for half a quarter of an hour, which almost exhausted the Holy Spirit power in her body.
After a fierce battle today, the Holy Spirit power in her body once bottomed out, but now it has only recovered to 10% or 20%.
After a moment's pause, the empress continued: "Brother Emperor, on the premise of ensuring victory in the matter of Huangzhou, I hope to see another outcome."
Hearing this, Jiang Chengdao, who was resting in Suzhou City at this time, couldn't help but be slightly startled.
Another outcome?
In addition to annihilating the rebels, purging the traitors and deterring the world, what other results can there be?
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Chengdao asked curiously: "What result does your Majesty hope to see?"
The empress' little hand holding the memorial tightened suddenly.
"I hope that the final outcome of the incident in Huangzhou will be that Gu Simiao understands the righteousness, and in order to get rid of the evil queen and the King of Qin, he will not hesitate to bear the infamy to lure him into the wilderness, win his trust with the border war, and finally sacrifice for the country. Die together with the Demon Queen and other traitors."
"Yes, I want Gu Simiao to become a hero who sacrifices his life for the country!"
Jiang Chengdao: "???????"
……………
Just when Jiang Chengdao was confused for a moment.
Huangzhou, Maple Leaf Town.
This small town, which is only a hundred miles away from Xuanxin City, suddenly welcomed a group of special guests today.
They were wearing heavy animal skin coats, and their skin had a shimmering bronze color. They were unusually tall, but their hair was disheveled. There was a hint of brutal wildness on their rough faces. They were obviously not from Daxia.
"So."
Queen Mother Zhao sat high on the main seat, picked up the wine glass, gestured to them, and drank it all in one gulp.
"I'd like to trouble all the heroes of the ice field to go back and tell you, King Khan, that I have agreed to the terms of the God-given land for each tribe. After the matter is completed, the two provinces of Liangzhou and Xichuan will be assigned to your tribe. I believe that Daxia and the tribes will always be brothers. The gift."
"Hahaha!"
A nine-foot-tall bearded man laughed loudly, and the loud voice resounded throughout the hall.
"The queen is really happy!"
"At the latest the day after tomorrow, we and the Turkic cavalry will definitely come on horseback to help the Queen Mother regain the kingdom of Daxia!"
The other aliens also laughed and raised their glasses to pay respect to the Queen Mother.
For a time, the guests were enjoying themselves, and the long-standing feud between the Central Plains dynasty and the foreign races seemed to be completely eliminated at this moment.
The Queen Mother also smiled.
After three rounds of drinking, a group of satisfied foreigners left Maple Leaf with the gifts specially prepared for them by the Queen Mother - baskets of gold and silver jewelry and hundreds of Daxia women who looked frightened and kept sobbing. town.
"Uncle Master."
After the foreigners left, Queen Mother Zhao turned her head and looked at the only tall figure left behind by their mother and son at the banquet.
"How are the preparations at Tianyuguan?"
Xia Houyan smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, Queen Mother, all matters have been prepared, and there will definitely be no one who will hinder the troops from Tiansend Land from entering the customs."
"Is it…"
The Queen Mother nodded slightly.
"That's good. Miao'er, is the battle going well?"
There was an inexplicable flash of meaning in Xia Houyan's eyes.
"all the best."
Upon hearing this answer, Queen Mother Zhao immediately narrowed her eyes.
"Well, it seems that it's almost time for them to come over and conspire for big things."
"The Queen Mother is wise!"
After finishing speaking, Jiang Chengyun on the side thought briefly and then suddenly asked: "Mother, when I was in Luojing, the teacher who taught my children said that these foreign races are ambitious people who are always coveting my country. Our land and people, how can you cooperate with them, Queen Mother?"
When asked such a pointed question, Queen Mother Zhao still looked as normal.
She did not answer immediately, but gestured to Xia Houyan with her eyes.
Xia Houyan understood and stood up directly.
"Wei Chen resigns."
"Well, go ahead."
Xia Houyan turned and left. After his figure disappeared from the door, Queen Mother Zhao turned her head and looked at Jiang Chengyun.
"Yun'er, as the future lord of the world, you must remember that if you achieve great things, you must not be too rigid in the details. In everything, you must focus on the overall situation, and you must take a long-term view, and do not care about temporary gains and losses."
"So what if you let them be arrogant for a while? As long as you can take back the throne that should belong to you and have the power, a little trouble is nothing to worry about. You only need to relax for a period of time, and you will be able to free up your hands to defeat these barbarians. Rush back to the land given by God.”
Hearing this, Jiang Chengyun suddenly nodded in understanding.
Then he asked: "But Erchen's country and the tens of millions of subjects in the two provinces have caused them such harm..."
"The king is not a mountain, and his subjects are not a river."
Queen Zhao was expressionless, as if she was stating a trivial matter that was a matter of course.
"Yun'er, everything in this world has its priorities. No matter what happens, you must grasp its essence."
"If this country is not in the hands of you, my mother and my son, and the power falls, everything will be meaningless to us. Therefore, no matter what means are used, no matter what price we have to pay for it, as long as we can regain the country, any sacrifice is necessary."
Hearing what his most trusted mother said, Jiang Chengyun couldn't help but scratch his head, thought for a moment, and finally nodded.
"I see, I know it."
"Good boy."
In the snowy sky, the two of them were enjoying themselves happily.
But he didn't notice that a wisp of air shook very slightly on the roof beam.
At the same time, in Xuanxin City, the city lord’s mansion.
A military meeting had just ended and Gu Simiao, who was taking a nap with his eyes closed, suddenly moved the corner of his mouth, slowly forming a cold smile.
"Haha...Is this the so-called orthodoxy..."
After a moment, she slowly opened her eyes, and a murderous intent quietly flashed through her eyes.
"Where is Cang Yue?"
Click…
With a crisp sound of metal interlacing, Cang Yue's figure soon appeared at the door, and then strode in.
"The general is here, what are your orders, General?"
"How is the fighting in the southeast today?"
"Reply to the general."
Cang Yue cupped her hands and responded: "As expected by the general, Bao He and other forward generals ignored the general's instructions and did not adopt a steady and steady strategy. Instead, they rushed forward in a hurry and attacked the city desperately regardless of casualties. The same was true for his subordinates. , and what is stationed in Suzhou and other places is not the original imperial garrison, but the well-equipped Cangming Army, which is extremely brave and brave. Its combat power is not inferior to our Cang Ling Army, but is even better."
"Moreover, there is even a peerless strongman who can defeat thousands of people on some battlefields. Under his unstoppable offensive, the vanguard troops suffered heavy losses..."
"Holy King Cangming...what..."
Gu Simiao's eyes narrowed slightly.
The highest cultivation level among cultivators is the realm of unity.
The Guiyi Realm is only the highest realm that can be systematically explored at present, and it is not absolute.
After all, the Holy King is an extraordinary existence above the Guiyi Realm.
Although she has truly achieved mastery of the martial arts and is able to roam the battlefield alone and be invincible, she cannot defeat ten thousand people with one person.
Facing an extremely special existence like the Holy King, even she could not completely escape his terrifying and supreme pressure.
Of course, if she followed the Queen Mother wholeheartedly, it would not be impossible for her to compete head-on with the Holy King.
Being defeated doesn't mean you can't fight.
Containment is still no problem.
It's a pity that there is never if in this world...
Cang Yue said in a deep voice: "It's very possible."
"I understand."
Gu Simiao nodded slightly, and then asked:
"How are you preparing for the prisoner immortal formation?"
Hearing this, she didn't know what she thought of. Cang Yue's heart trembled inexplicably, her plump body trembled slightly, and a flash of shock and fear flashed in her eyes.
It was as if the Immortal Prison Formation in Gu Simiao's words was the same as the Nine Nether Hells, which made people fearful.
After a while, she swallowed and spoke slowly: "It is completely prepared and can be used at any time."
As the words came out, her fear gradually disappeared, and her expression gradually softened.
"The guards have also been assembled and are now waiting at the edge of the formation, just waiting for your order from the general."
"very good!"
Gu Simiao clenched her fists and then stood up slowly.
The next second, she waved her little hand gently, and a long sword that was crystal clear and seemed to be made of solid ice appeared out of thin air in her hand.
"The time has come, it's time to end things with these rotten things!"
After saying that, she took steps and walked outside.
Cang Yue took a deep breath to calm down the turmoil in her heart, then she grasped the hilt of the sword tightly at her waist and quickly chased after him.
The wind subsides and the snow rests
At this moment, the haze that had shrouded the entire Great Xia for six years finally dissipated completely.
