The First Tyrant of Daxia

Qin Yun winked and smiled: "If I lose my self-respect tonight, what will you do?"

She blurted it out, sounding very strong.

"Then I'll just bite my tongue and commit suicide."

Qin Yun raised his eyebrows and took a step back.

"I'm just kidding you, don't be nervous."

Seeing this, Xiang Shengnan smiled and said jokingly, "Your Majesty, do you joke with every woman like this and finally win her heart?"

"Do I need it?" he smiled.

"That's true. Your Majesty is the supreme ruler. You can get a lot of beauties just by making a wave of your hand."

Qin Yun smiled and said with his hands behind his back, "Then there is you? You treat me like a thief and keep two steps apart when we walk side by side."

"I?"

A trace of self-mockery flashed across Xiang Shengnan's beautiful eyes: "What kind of beauty am I? If I take off this veil, I'm afraid it will scare His Majesty so much that he can't sleep at night."

Qin Yun frowned slightly and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, I have urged Divine Doctor Sun several times."

"He's looking for medicine."

"It won't be long before I can give you a face that is as beautiful as a fairy."

Xiang Shengnan glanced at him and asked hesitantly, "What if I can't recover?"

"Will... Shengnan be treated differently?"

Qin Yun shook his head directly: "No!"

"You are a good woman, and you have a lot of temperament and opinions. No man would look down on you."

"Besides, you have helped me so much. Even if your face cannot be restored, I will still treat you as my best friend."

Hearing this, a hint of sadness flashed across her charming eyes again.

The breeze blew her hair, making her look a little lonely.

Just... just friends?

There was silence for a while.

Qin Yun took the initiative to say: "I have thought about it over and over again, but I can't think of what you need."

"But you have done so much for me and Daxia, I must reward you. Tell me, what do you want?"

Xiang Shengnan seemed a little resistant.

Her eyebrows knitted slightly: "Your Majesty thinks that I am such a vulgar woman for the sake of gold, fame and fortune?"

Qin Yun looked at her and said, "No."

"You don't lack these things. You are not vulgar, very kind, and you are willing to risk your life for friendship."

friendship?!

Xiang Shengnan widened her eyes and became a little angry for some reason.

It's like being misunderstood by someone you care about.

"I did it for..." She hesitated.

Qin Yun was puzzled: "What is it for?"

"Just tell me, as long as it does not break the law, I will grant it to you."

Hearing this, Xiang Shengnan's eyebrows raised, and she was extremely angry.

As soon as her slender jade hand closed the door, she ordered the guest to leave: "Your Majesty, please go back."

"I'm not feeling well, so I won't talk any more."

Snapped.

The door is closed.

Qin Yun was stunned and asked, "Where do you feel uncomfortable? Do you need a doctor to come and see you?"

Xiang Shengnan's impatient voice was heard from inside the house.

"Menstruation!!"

Qin Yun raised his eyebrows, a little surprised that Xiang Shengnan could say such words.

He curled his lips, didn't ask any more questions, asked someone to make some ginseng tea for Xiang Shengnan, and left.

In a room without a candle.

Xiang Shengnan sat in front of the window, feeling sad.

The moonlight fell on her shoulders, making her look thin and feminine, and the lines outlined by her skirt were also prominent.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with mixed feelings, as if containing a thousand emotions.

"Xiang Shengnan, why are you doing this? You're afraid that he'll dislike your ugly face, but you shamelessly insist on sticking to him."

"Despicable!"

She cursed herself angrily.

"That's all."

"I thought..."

"Alas, let's go back to Jiangbei tomorrow. This splendid imperial capital does not belong to me."

After saying that, she slowly stood up and closed the window.

She is very courageous and opinionated, and definitely not an indecisive woman.

……

the next day.

Xiang Shengnan left early in the morning without saying goodbye to Qin Yun.

Qin Yun, who heard the news, was busy with government affairs, so he had to send someone to Jiangbei to reward and commend.

Followed by.

He continued to act and threw smoke bombs to his ministers.

The high price of grain collection, as well as Xiao Jian's appointment as commander-in-chief and the attack on Pancheng, made all the civil and military officials believe it without a doubt.

In the imperial capital, the atmosphere becomes increasingly eerie.

The Xiliang Rebellion was a serious matter in itself, and the struggle between imperial power and the aristocratic families made things even more exciting.

From top to bottom, everyone seemed to have a tacit understanding and were waiting for the "general attack."

And the war situation in Xiliang is getting worse!

Mu Le and Yan Zhong suffered frequent losses. No matter what they did, they could not lure the enemy out of the city for a fight.

The forced siege resulted in heavy casualties.

After more than ten days of stalemate, morale has become a big problem.

The Jiangnan troops were not Qin Yun's direct subordinates, and due to the interference of the aristocratic families, their internal situation was in chaos.

Some people listened to Qin Yun, while others began to slack off!

Another two and a half days passed.

On the border of Xiliang, there is a large tent on the plain ten miles outside Pancheng.

"master!"

"General!"

Mu Le and Yan Zhong led people to greet them, with smiles on their faces that had not been seen for a long time.

"Call me Marshal!"

Xiao Jian, who was covered in dust, spoke majestically.

When he arrived at the battlefield, he seemed to have transformed into a god of war, and his entire body was filled with solemnity.

Mu Le nodded: "Yes, Marshal!"

"How many of you died?" Xiao Jian asked with a frown.

Mu Yan and the other person, along with many senior generals, looked at each other and lowered their heads in embarrassment.

Xiao Jian shouted: "Speak!"

The generals around were shocked and intimidated by Xiao Jian's momentum.

Mu Le bowed and said, "Marshal, more than 13,000 brothers died."

Xiao Jian's square face was full of coldness: "How many times have you attacked the city, and how many times have you failed?"

Yan Zhong looked embarrassed and knelt on one knee: "We attacked the city eleven times and failed all of them."

"Humph!"

Xiao Jian cursed angrily: "You are a bunch of rubbish! Because of your poor command, His Majesty has been under a lot of pressure from public opinion in the capital!"

"Don't you know how big of an impact the Xiliang war has?"

"Then there is also the struggle between your majesty and the aristocratic families!!"

He showed no mercy and kept yelling.

He didn't even give Mu Le face. He had strict military discipline and was impartial and just. He was a true commander.

In comparison, Mu Yan and the other two are still too young.

The generals blushed, feeling ashamed and aggrieved.

Especially Mu Yan and the other two were very upset after being scolded, and gradually, there was a terrifying murderous intent and fighting spirit in their eyes!

We must get this revenge back from Xiliang!

See the changes in the generals' eyes.

Xiao Jian smiled with satisfaction in his heart. Such stimulation boosted the morale a lot.

"Marshal, how do you say we fight?"

"I, Mu Le, am willing to be the vanguard and die on the battlefield!"

"And I, Yan Zhong!" He roared, his burly body looking like a half-beast.

"And I!"

"Let these Xiliang brats pay the price!"

"..."

Xiao Jian looked towards Pancheng in the distance with sharp eyes.

"Your Majesty is very foresighted and has a plan in place."

After saying that, he took out the note Qin Yun had given him before he left.

The generals were stunned. Has His Majesty already come up with a plan in the imperial capital?

They were surprised and looked at the note in Xiao Jian's hand, wanting to know what was written inside.

But after he finished reading it, he put it away.

Then he looked at Mu Le and Yan Zhong, with a strange smile on his face.

The two of them were so frightened by the look on their faces.

"Marshal, what's wrong?"

Xiao Jian did not answer, but suddenly pointed at the two and shouted: "Come here, tie up these two bastards for me!"

"Repeated defeats in battles are unforgivable!"

"Push them out and select fifty of them in front of the whole army as a warning to others!!"

The sound was like thunder.

The entire army, including senior generals, were dumbfounded.

what happened?

Weren't you fine just now?
