After the child's mind was read, the tyrant caught the male queen with a black face

When Yuanruan heard the second half of the sentence, the corner of his mouth twitched at what sounded a bit childish.

Yuanruan: [Tong'er, please...get to the point.]

The system immediately responded: [Okay, Ah Ruan. In the previous branch, the two generals of the Lin family defeated General Li alone, causing General Li to retire in despair and die in depression. Afterwards, a descendant of General Li's clan rose up and vowed to revive the glory of the Li family and wash away the failure of his predecessors. The first battle this person fought was to challenge the young general of the Lin family.]

Yuanruan was shocked: [Ah! So fierce?!]

System: [Isn't he Tiger? He went to find General Lin to prove his talent, but General Lin had already made a name for himself. This guy stubbornly rushed over to fight, but he didn't win and was captured.]

The crowd that was originally full of expectations turned into bewildered eyes: …

Wait, system, didn’t you say that this is the last general of Daxia?

How come this guy was so aggressive at the beginning? Being aggressive would be fine, but he was captured after the first battle? Can he still be considered the last general of Daxia? !

Yuan Ruan was also shocked and couldn't help asking: [What about the reversal? General Lin put him back? ]

System: [No reversal. Lin Xiao himself has been through that stage, and he thinks this man has talent, so he will not let him go! This man was captured. After he was captured and taken to the State of Chen, he was reused in the State of Chen because of his great military talent.]

Everyone was even more shocked:!!!

what! ?

The last great general of Daxia mentioned by the system not only did not escape after being captured, but was also reused by the enemy country? !

Isn't this treason?!

Yuan Ruan couldn't hold it in any longer and complained: [Tong'er, this man was captured by the enemy general when he first started out, and was later reused by the State of Chen. He can't even be called a Daxia person. How can he be called the last general star of Daxia? At most, he is a talented general born in the Xia State. ]

System: [Ah, I haven't finished yet. This person is pretending to surrender to the State of Chen.]

Everyone:? ? ?

A reversal? A fake surrender?!

Yuan Ruan also became curious: [Fake surrender? So he is still working for Daxia in his heart?]

System: [Yes. After being captured, this man discovered that Chen's military strength was far stronger than Daxia's. At that time, the royal family of Xia was in turmoil. He thought that if he fled back to Xia, he would only be a young general who was not valued and would not be able to play a big role. But if he stayed in Chen, it would be different. As long as he became a general stationed at the border between Chen and Xia, he could become a force to stabilize the border situation between the two countries.]

Yuan Ruan still didn't understand and asked: [His idea makes sense, but it's naive. First of all, how can he be sure that after he surrenders, Chen will use him in the military and send him to the border with Xia. ]

All the civil and military officials in the court nodded: Yes, who can guess the appointments of other emperors?

System: [He can be sure. The Xia Kingdom on that line is in chaos, and there are many generals who have rebelled or defected to other countries. After these generals defected to Chen or Shu, the other two countries, in order to observe whether these generals are loyal, first stationed them at the border with the Xia Kingdom.]

Yuan Ruan was puzzled: [Chen and Shu are so bold? Aren’t they afraid that their people will be harmed by the rebels? ]

System: [Aruan, in the previous branch, Xia lost a lot of territory. In other words, the border lands guarded by these rebels also belonged to Xia before, and were inhabited by Xia citizens. The leaders of Chen and Shu didn't feel sorry for these people at all, and even thought it would be better if they died.]

The emperor's face was gloomy enough to drip water.

Although he had sensed the decline of Daxia from the frequent changes of the throne, he suddenly heard that his territory was occupied by another country and used by that country to test the loyalty of the surrendered generals...

The emperor suddenly exerted force with his right hand and crushed the blue flag he was playing with.

Qi Yue's expression was solemn. The Third Prince felt inexplicably uncomfortable and self-blaming.

The Minister of War opened his mouth to ask, but quickly shut it up.

Yuan Ruan was in a very heavy mood and inexplicably thought of a saying, "When a country prospers, the people suffer; when a country perishes, the people suffer."

The system suddenly whispered: [Aruan, are you in a bad mood? ]

After a while, Yuan Ruan sighed, but did not give a direct answer. He continued: [Hmm...Tong'er, there is another question. Isn't this man worried about his family members who are still in Xia after he pretends to surrender? How can this man be sure that the emperor of Xia will trust him and believe that he is pretending to surrender and protect his family members? ]

System: [He couldn't be sure. He was just taking a gamble, or rather, he placed all his hopes on the queen at the time.]

Yuan Ruan was stunned: [The Empress? The Empress proclaimed herself the Emperor at that time? ]

System: [Not yet. But the Queen has done a lot to save the situation, such as promoting him and a group of young talents to serve as officials against all odds, so this person trusts the Queen's political wisdom and character.]

The emperor's heart moved, and his expression softened a little.

Yuan Ruan sighed: [As expected of the queen, she has a lot of charisma. Since Tong'er said that he is the last great general of Daxia, then his gamble must have been a good one.]

System: [Aruan is really smart! Many people wanted to kill his entire family at that time, but the queen overcame all the heroes and saved the entire family of this general. This general did not let down the queen's trust. He joined forces with the grandson of the Chen Kingdom and used a chronic poison to destroy the body of General Lin, and at the same time, he took back a large piece of territory. However, he was seriously injured as a result. When he fled back to his country, he was ambushed and killed by the furious General Lin. ]

The emperor narrowed his eyes.

The Minister of War almost cursed out loud, but quickly realized that this Young General Lin was not that Young General Lin.

Yuan Ruan: [Hiss. After being captured by one of the twins, he pretended to surrender, and then barely killed the twins, and also took back a large piece of land. This person should leave a strong mark in the history books. ]

The system's voice suddenly changed: [...Yes, that's correct.]

Yuan Ruan heard the subtlety of the system and guessed: [Is it because of his bad reputation? That's right, after all, the Xia Kingdom failed in the previous line. The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. The most he can get is a good evaluation of "a good match between a monarch and his subjects."]

The emperor and his entourage thought so too.

Historians, anything written down by humans will always have a crooked side.

System: [This... he didn't leave a good reputation. For example, later generations compiled a lot of gossip about him and the queen, and there are even unofficial histories saying that it was because the queen gave birth to an illegitimate child for him and raised him in his family. So after he surrendered, the queen tried her best to protect the child and keep his family alive.]

The emperor's face darkened.

The Third Prince and Qi Yue's faces kept twitching. The imagination of later generations is too weird.

In order to prove that he had not heard the melon, or that he had not heard the melon clearly, the Minister of War slapped the sand table with his hands to make a "bang bang" sound when analyzing the battle situation on the sand table to prove his innocence.

Yuanruan: [Ah? That's too outrageous.]
