In the Beihuang court hall, the Beihuang Empress, dressed in a dragon robe, sat on the dragon chair. Her beautiful eyes were downcast, showing no emotion or anger.
The golden coiled dragon on the dragon robe looks like it is about to soar into the sky. With his hands behind his back and his eyebrows raised, all the heroes in the world bow their waists, and the women will not let their eyebrows rise.
The flaming red clothes, like butterfly wings about to fly, were embroidered with bright golden lines, fluttering among the snow-covered flowers, dazzling everyone's eyes.
On the fair and jade-colored face, the shadow cast by the thick eyelashes is like the faint ink stain on rice paper. Those pair of spiritual eyes are ethereal and gorgeous, as clear as water and as bright as morning stars. With a single swipe, people suddenly lose their soul and become fascinated by it.
It's just that no one dared to admire such a beautiful face. All the civil and military officials on the stage nodded their heads and lowered their eyebrows, looking worried.
The empress' green and slender fingers kept tapping on the dragon chair, making a "dong-dong-dong" sound, as if she was also waiting for something.
"Report!!"
At this moment, a eunuch stumbled in from outside the hall, his face full of ecstasy, and he knelt down in front of the hall with a thud.
No one cared about his abruptness, and everyone asked anxiously with their eyes rounded:
"How's it going? News came from the front line??"
The eunuch was a little nervous being watched by so many people. He swallowed before saying with difficulty:
"Reporting to Your Majesty, according to reports from the front line, fifty thousand soldiers have fallen into the trap of General Shen Kang and have become turtles in the urn!!"
As soon as this statement came out, all the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty were overjoyed.
"Okay!! Fifty thousand elite soldiers have become turtles in the urn, and there is no possibility of escape!! General Shen Kang has made a great contribution this time!"
"That's right, if we can wipe out all these 50,000 soldiers, it can be called our greatest military success in the past few years!"
"Having a good general like Shen Kang is the pride of our Great Wilderness Dynasty!!"
The empress sitting on the dragon throne also had a rare smile on her lips.
"General Shen Kang did a good job this time. After he returns in triumph, I will make him the Marquis of Zhennan and reward him with thousands of hectares of land and ten thousand taels of gold."
Her voice is majestic and extremely melodious, making people remember it as soon as they hear it.
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Everyone responded respectfully.
But at this moment, another official from outside the palace ran in in a panic. His feet were unsteady and he tripped over the steps and slipped far away.
Ignoring the severe pain radiating from his body, the official knelt on the ground as if mourning his heir.
"Your Majesty!! Your Majesty!!!"
The empress frowned, a little displeased.
"If you have something to say, just say it. What's the point of hesitating!!"
The official touched the cold sweat on his forehead before crying and saying:
"Your Majesty, we are defeated!!! We are defeated!!!"
"All the 80,000 soldiers of our Great Wilderness died in battle, and even General Shen Kang died tragically on the battlefield!!!!"
The hall suddenly began to boil like a pot exploding.
"You fart!!!! The good news just came from the front line. General Shen Kang and his 80,000 soldiers have surrounded the Daqian soldiers. How could they be defeated!!!"
"His monstrous words are misleading the people! His monstrous words are misleading the people!! Come here, this man is misleading the people with his monstrous words and disrupting the morale of the army. Pull him down and behead him!! Behead him!!!!"
"Fifty thousand soldiers were surrounded by 80,000 of our elite troops. You said we were defeated??!! Ridiculous!! I have never heard of such a ridiculous thing in all my years!!!"
The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were all glaring, not believing this official's nonsense.
"Bang~!"
"Shut up, everyone!"
The empress slapped the dragon chair hard, and everyone present fell silent, not daring to speak any more.
Empress Ni Changshang narrowed her bright and deep eyebrows slightly, looked at the official in the audience and said coldly:
"Explain to me what's going on in detail!"
The official kowtowed three times and then replied sadly:
"Someone in the Daqian Dynasty composed an eternal quatrain that caused strange phenomena in the world."
"The power of Confucianism and Taoism was poured into the bodies of Daqian soldiers, so that the combat power of Daqian soldiers more than doubled. Our soldiers in Dahuang were defeated and all died in the battle."
"What?!!! Someone in Daqian made an eternal quatrain?!!!"
After hearing his words, everyone was shocked and looked horrified.
Some people shook their heads desperately, still not believing it.
"Impossible!! Impossible!! Eternal quatrains that can trigger visions of heaven and earth have not appeared for hundreds of years. How could anyone be able to write them now!!!"
Ni Changshang rubbed her slightly painful temples, her voice a little low.
"Read the poem."
The official licked his chapped lips. Although he was from the opposing camp, he felt awe in his heart every time he thought of that masterpiece.
He read every word with great solemnity:
"Loyal bones are buried everywhere in the mountains, why return them wrapped in horse leather?"
"The ambition is to eat Hulu meat when hungry, and drink the blood of the Northern Wilderness when talking about laughter!!!"
quiet! !
There was silence in the hall! ! !
Everyone's faces were dull, as if they had been immersed in this poem for a long time and could not come back to their senses.
"Loyal bones are buried everywhere in the mountains, why return them wrapped in horse leather?"
"The ambition is to eat Hulu meat when hungry, and to drink the blood of the Northern Wilderness when talking about laughter."
"What a joke about drinking the blood of Beihuang when you are thirsty. What a joke about drinking the blood of my Beihuang when you are thirsty!!!"
Someone laughed miserably, unable to accept this fact, and rolled his eyes and fainted.
An eighty-year-old civil servant's legs gave way and he fell to the ground, crying.
"Loyal bones are buried everywhere in the mountains, why return them wrapped in horse leather?"
"The ambition is to eat Hulu meat when hungry, and to drink the blood of the Northern Wilderness when talking about laughter."
"I have been studying academics for so many years, but today I realize that all these decades have been in vain!! My life has been in vain!!!"
At this moment, his heart was broken.
“Who is the author of this poem!!!”
Someone gritted his teeth and muttered to himself.
"Apart from Su Yikao of the Su family, who else in Daqian can write such a quatrain!!"
"Hateful!! Hateful!!! Why was such a great talent not born in our Great Wilderness Dynasty!!"
Some people beat their chests and feel regretful.
A cold light flashed in the eyes of Ni Changshang who was sitting on the dragon chair. She found five fingerprints on the dragon chair made of pure gold.
"Su family, Su family again!!!"
"When the day comes that I lead my Great Wilderness's 300,000 iron horses to the Central Plains, I want to see if the four girls of the Su family have three heads and six arms, so that they can defeat my Great Wilderness again and again!!"
After a moment of pause, she waved her hand.
"I'm a little tired today, so please leave first."
From great joy to great sorrow, everyone had no intention of continuing to go to court, and all of them retreated like cocks that had been defeated in a fight.
When the Empress was the only one left in the main hall, she opened her lips lightly.
"Hidden killing."
A black mist surged, and then a man in black wearing a bronze mask appeared silently next to her.
"Hidden kill and pay homage to His Majesty."
Ni Changshang's eyes burst out with a hint of coldness, and he said coldly:
"Activate the dish I planted in the Daqian Palace and let him kill Su Yikai of the Su family at all costs!!!"
Hidden eyes showed a look of disbelief.
"Your Majesty, the late emperor spent countless efforts to place that plate in the Daqian Palace. He has brought us countless useful information over the years. It is a pity to sacrifice him in exchange for the life of a helpless woman!"
Ni Changshang snorted coldly.
"Humph, what do you know!"
"Su Yikai, who can compose eternal quatrains, can serve as a teacher to millions of people. If such a person cannot be used by our wilderness, then I will not allow her to still live in this world!"
