Swap, the involutionary regent palace fight also forced me to rebel

The man shouted so loudly that even Yun Ji, who was on Nan Yingzhi's horse and was far away in the center of the team, could hear it clearly.

Hearing this, he couldn't help but frown. Isn't this the voice of Nan Yi's personal soldier, Chang Yu?

Whenever Nan Yi showed off his daughter to him, he would always join in and show him how happy it was to have a daughter at home.

As a personal soldier, he should follow Nan Yi and protect his master until death.

At this moment, there was no sign of the messenger, but instead it was a general's personal soldier who came from the front line after a long journey.

Could it be that something big happened at the front line and the messenger who was good at evasion unfortunately died?

Or is it that Nan Yi has no one around him and can only send his personal soldiers to ask for help?

In order to protect Nan Yingzhi's safety while not disturbing her interaction with Yun Ji, Song Cheng took great pains to find a suitable distance and serve her from neither too close nor too far.

Hearing someone shouting in front, he was afraid that Nan Yingzhi and Yun Ji would be disturbed, so he rushed over and asked first, "Who are you?"

"Sir Song, I am Chang Yu, a personal soldier under General Nan."

Thinking of General Nan's instructions to be careful and not to mention the Regent in front of His Majesty, so as to avoid His Majesty's suspicion, he shouted that he just wanted to see His Majesty.

Through the two words "Chang Yu", Nan Yingzhi found an "Uncle Chang" from the original owner's memories.

At a glance, she found that Chang Yu was very similar to the person in her memory, and she understood a lot more.

Seeing that he was covered in blood, Nan Yingzhi thought that Yun Ji couldn't stand it, so she reined in her horse and asked him from a distance, "What happened?"

Chang Yu felt puzzled when he glanced at Nan Yingzhi, who was wearing a dragon robe but had a temperament similar to that of the Regent.

Who is this?

He choked for a moment, then shouted again: "The situation is urgent, I want to see Your Majesty!"

Before Nan Yingzhi could say anything, Song Cheng had already spoken for her.

"Stupid," he cursed at Chang Yu, and pointed his mouth towards her, saying, "Isn't His Majesty here?"

Seeing that Eunuch Gao, who was always by His Majesty's side, had sullen faces and followed the Regent obediently, Chang Yu's doubts disappeared instantly.

The palace coup, the regent put on the yellow robe!

Chang Yu thought that the Regent and General Nan had a close relationship and would not stand by and watch them die. He was overjoyed and apologized: "I am shortsighted. Please punish me, Your Majesty!"

"No problem, just some formalities." Nan Yingzhi was eager to know the answer, and didn't care about the details. "What happened at the front?"

Knowing that the war could not be delayed, Chang Yu hurried to report to her.

“Your Majesty, Vice General Zhao defected earlier, but the court not only did not send reinforcements, but also repeatedly indulged his father, causing resentment among the officers and soldiers.

"General Nan exhausted all his energy and managed to stabilize the morale.

“Originally, the general wanted to fight a quick battle and take down the capital of Beishuo in one fell swoop, annihilate the remaining forces, or directly negotiate peace with them.

"Unexpectedly, just as we reached the outskirts of Dadu and saw that the important task was accomplished, the Northern Shuo Prince Yuchi Yi, who had not appeared before, suddenly led his troops to attack and attacked our Dali soldiers.

“I don’t know who Yuchi Yi’s teacher is. He is so young, yet he is a capable commander. He is invincible. Even General Nan, who has experienced many battles, was unable to resist his schemes.

"Last night, the soldiers were exhausted from fighting for days and fell into a deep sleep. The sentry was not paying attention and his throat was cut to death. Yuchi Yi led a group of soldiers and marched straight in.

“General Nan fought bravely to kill the enemy, but he was not strong enough, and he escaped only with the help of many of his brothers.

"Now the battle line has retreated from the edge of Beishuo Dadu to the border between the two countries. General Nan is unable to cope with the situation, so he sent me to the capital to seek reinforcements immediately.

"I heard that Your Majesty was on the autumn hunt, so I came all the way to find you.

"Nearly half of the troops in the army were killed, a large amount of food and fodder fell into the hands of the enemy, and winter was approaching.

“The northern border is bitterly cold, and there are many southern barbarians in my Dali army. I’m afraid they may not be able to adapt to the climate and the severe cold.

"The situation is critical. Your Majesty, please issue an order as soon as possible to send reinforcements!"

Unexpectedly, there had been no battle reports from the front for many days. When there was news, it was the tragic news that nearly half of the troops were killed. Nan Yingzhi couldn't help but frown.

She thought about it for a moment and realized that no matter how urgent the situation on the front line was, she could not ignore the chaos in the capital, but instead led the people around her to rush forward to provide reinforcements.

After all, Yuchi Yi attacked, and only half of Nan Yi's troops were left, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.

If Nan Yi only led a small number of palace soldiers without sending a large number of soldiers, it would be like "a good cook cannot cook without rice". No matter how he planned, it would be useless.

If he wanted to send out nearly 10,000 imperial guards, he had to ascend the throne first, and then legitimately command Yang Ling to lead the imperial guards for reinforcement.

Having said that, there is a big problem - most of the imperial guards are young masters, and Yang Ling is just an embroidered pillow. If they are sent to the front line, they may not play a big role.

Now, the army is in urgent need of good generals!

If Jin An was still here, he and his secret guards would definitely be a great help, but unfortunately...

Unable to think of who to send, Nan Yingzhi held the reins with one hand, holding Yunji's waist, and stretched out the other hand, signaling Chang Yu to stand up.

"You have come a long way and must be very tired. Please come with me back to the capital to rest first," she said. "This matter is of great importance. I cannot make a conclusion right away. I will give you an answer tomorrow morning."

Realizing that she was in a hurry to get on with her journey, but rarely stopped to make a promise to herself, Chang Yu quickly responded, "Yes!"

As soon as he left, Nan Yingzhi moved for a moment, tightened her lips, and took off the mask of the calm emperor.

Feeling upset, she reached out to press Yunji's hair, then gently rested her chin on top of his head.

It felt like even though she was upset, she was able to control her strength just right.

This allowed them to feel each other's presence without putting pressure on themselves. Yun Ji slowly placed his fingertips on the back of her hand.

"Xiao Zhizi," he took in everything Chang Yu said, and he naturally understood her worries, "You are worried, who are you going to send?"

Originally, she was planning to discuss it with him. Nan Yingzhi did not hide anything. She looked into the distance and said slowly, "Yes."

In fact, Nan Yingzhi knew clearly that she and Yun Ji had discussed the issue of "who to send to help Nan Yi" before.

As expected, Yuchi Yi's army descended from the sky and defeated the Dali soldiers.

Even Nan Yi, who always chose to hold on, realized the unprecedented crisis and took the initiative to request reinforcements. It must be that the situation was at a critical juncture.

But looking around, who else can he send out to help Nan Yi, or even have the ability to compete with Yuchi Yi?

Slowly hugging the person's waist, Nan Yingzhi recalled the scene when Yun Ji said that if the front line was lost, she might as well send him there.

But this was a different time, and all she said at that time was, "I'll think about it."

At this moment, how could she let Yun Ji go to the front line when she knew that he couldn't stand the smell of blood?

But the strange thing is that Yun Ji himself has been to the front line. In the original book, he even served as the commander-in-chief and commanded Nan Yi to attack.

It was precisely because of his outstanding military achievements that Yun Ting became suspicious of him, and he ended up with his bow hidden away after the bird was killed.

So, why would he faint at the sight of blood?

Before she could figure out a conclusion, a cold hand suddenly touched her face.

"Little Gardenia," Yun Ji touched her cheeks and brushed his fingertips across her ears, his voice light but firm, "Let me go."

After hearing what he said, Nan Yingzhi's worries came true.

Before she could think clearly, her mouth had already reflexively said what she was thinking: "No, I don't agree!"
