Dawan Palace.
It was deserted at this time.
This palace, which Xie Xuan spent almost three years of Dawan's fiscal revenue to build more than ten years ago, is no worse than the palace of the Longyan Dynasty in terms of scale, feng shui, and luxury.
even.
It was built entirely in imitation of the Long Yan Dynasty's palace, and was even larger than Long Yan Jinghua's palace.
However.
now.
This place used to be so glorious, lively, and majestic.
Nowadays, this place is so decadent and deserted.
Xie Xuan stood alone on a tall building and had a bird's eye view of his country.
"Your Majesty, the wind is blowing..."
Zhai Qing'er walked over.
Xie Xuan seems to have aged more than ten years during this period, with a head full of white hair. The high-spirited look he once had has disappeared. His eyes looking at the sky in the distance had become cloudy at this time.
Are you getting old?
yes.
I am getting old.
A few days ago, he cleared out all the eunuchs and maids in this palace. The people who were deeply favored by the emperor cried and shouted and did not want to leave.
He drove away anyway.
His sons and daughters also fled Dawan with whatever gold, silver and jewelry they could take.
Now, there are only two people left in the Dawan palace.
"Hahahaha, I have thought about so many ways to leave this world, but I never dared to think that it would be my own daughter who ended my life!"
Xie Xuan looked up to the sky and laughed, extremely desolate.
Zhai Qing'er was holding him from behind, with a peaceful look in her eyes: "Your Majesty, being a concubine is enough for me in this life."
Xie Xuan turned around and stared at Zhai Qing'er, almost roaring: "You are enough, you are enough? I am not enough! But what can I do? Tell me, what should I do?"
In the Battle of Yanqi, the great army of Dayuan Kingdom had been completely destroyed. This is a devastating blow to Dawan, which has a small population.
There is no chance of a comeback.
No!
Unless he still has thirty years to develop the North Western Region!
But he knew that he, who was only a few years younger than Xie Tianyao, was already on his deathbed. The reconstruction of the Western Region Protectorate means that the former glory of Dawan has disappeared. That great defeat completely destroyed his majestic image as an "outsider" in the Western Regions.
Since then……
The kings and governors of these small countries acted in both positive and negative ways.
Yes.
Just that one war determined the pattern of the North Western Region.
He was no longer able to plan anything.
Last time, when the two parties negotiated, it was their daughter who came...
Xie Xuan suddenly felt that he should leave this historical stage? The child who once cried loudly in his infancy is now able to lead an army in battle.
Is he dissatisfied with the youngest?
However……
So what?
He shouted unwillingly: "Xie Tianyao, do you really think you won? Hahahaha! We just changed the way to fight!"
"You didn't win, you won't win!"
"The Long Yan Dynasty will still fall apart, fall apart!"
he roared.
Let the palace echo with lonely echoes.
Just at this time.
As if from the horizon, the footsteps of the army sounded.
suddenly.
The royal guards of the Dawan Kingdom had also been dismissed long ago.
One hundred thousand soldiers of the Western Region Construction Corps suddenly felt as if they were in a deserted land. The dark green military uniform seems to be the only remaining place of prosperity in this desert Gobi land.
Click, click, click!
The sound of horse hooves and footsteps rose into the sky, deafening. This palace is so big that a hundred thousand people can come in without feeling cramped.
They all swarmed in.
The Western Region Construction Corps led by Xie Chan did not encounter any obstacles along the way. Along the way, she suppressed her ups and downs.
No obstruction, no obstruction...
She knew why.
Xiao Tao has been crying beside her, unable to stop her tears. Those night walkers who had followed Xie Chan and sneaked into the Duhu Mansion also had dull faces at this time.
Along the way.
There were no Dawan soldiers. Along the way, the Dawan people obeyed Xie Xuan's orders and hid in their homes - among these people were their family members.
Among these people are their friends.
Is this the best ending?
They vaguely remembered that when they followed Xie Chan and ran out of Dawan, this was still the most prosperous and lively city in the North Western Region, and the city that everyone yearned for.
But now...
After staying in the Western Region Construction Corps for a long time, they will only feel that this place is full of decay, full of oppression, and full of oppression. The people walking here are all walking corpses. The prosperity here is all false prosperity.
Along the way.
People are silent.
Including Ling Chen and other generals behind the army.
"No, Lord Ling, is General Xie really the princess of Dawan?"
"This...this is too..."
Ling Chen also smiled bitterly.
This news really shocked everyone. Although the young master once told him to pay attention to Xie Chan when he left the Western Regions. But after that, Xie Chan's performance in the Western Region Construction Corps was remarkable and perfect - she worked every day, she yelled the most, and she was always far ahead in points. In every aspect, she is worthy of the status of this general.
only……
Never imagined.
The princess of Dawan Kingdom...
Not only did she admit her identity as the princess of Dawan on the spot, but she also volunteered to conquer Dawan.
Ling Chen agreed.
An army of one hundred thousand.
Finally slowly entered the square of the Dawan Palace.
Xie Chan's hand holding the reins was tightly clenched at this time. She tried her best to calm down her mood. She looked up and could already see her parents standing at the highest point of the palace.
That place is called Zhaixing Tower.
The army stopped.
The scene was eerily quiet again.
"Father..."
Xie Chan looked at Xie Xuan's white hair from a distance and almost screamed, but she still held it back.
Xie Xuan laughed loudly: "Okay!"
"good!"
"What a thank you General, hahahaha, I feel so relieved, I feel so relieved!"
Xie Xuan laughed loudly, full of energy, and his voice shook the world.
Everyone is silent.
Xie Chan raised her head and couldn't help but shed tears: "Father, I am announcing my abdication. My daughter will protect you forever!"
Xie Xuan was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Abdication?"
"Si Chan'er, do you think my father is someone who can abdicate?"
He shook his head decisively and smiled brightly: "Chan'er, you are my father's most promising child. I have lived until now and just want to see you one last time, one last time..."
"As for abdication..."
He stood with his hands behind his back, looking down upon the world with a domineering aura.
"If Chan'er has a chance to see that Longyan's Xie Laoer, tell him for me. I am willing to lose to my daughter, not him!"
After saying this, he looked calm and fearless, and walked a few more steps forward.
"No!"
Xie Chan shouted hysterically.
Xie Xuan, who had brought great prosperity to the Kingdom of Dawan, fell gracefully from the highest building of the palace together with the woman he loved most in his life.
So far.
The entire North Western Region was completely divided between the Western Region Protectorate and Loulan.
