When the Regent Princess kneeled, all the children in Beijing broke their knees.

Prime Minister Zhang wanted to get angry, but the current situation was not favorable to him.

Whether it was Wan Min Shu who was still holding the book, or Kang Mengxian who was standing aside, he had no position and no way to speak.

Emperor Ning glanced at Eunuch Xi, who immediately understood, "If you have something to report, please submit. If you don't, please leave the court."

All of a sudden, the court, which had been squabbling for months, became quiet, as if both sides had lost their strength.

"Sir, why don't you meet in the imperial study?" Before Emperor Ning left, he said directly to Kang Mengxian.

"Kang Mengxian obeys the order!" Kang Mengxian performed a commoner's salute, then followed Emperor Ning to the imperial study.

Prime Minister Zhang hurried out of the palace amid the laughter of the crowd.

"Have they been caught up?" Kang Mengxian asked.

Emperor Ning nodded, "Sir, they have already caught up with him. I want to see who can arbitrarily appoint me as the Prime Minister of Great Ning?"

They have been following the clues for years, is it finally coming out?

Kang Mengxian shook his head. "I'm afraid it won't be easy. The people behind this are so cunning. We have been investigating for many years, but we only have some clues and scope. We haven't confirmed it in all these years."

"Prime Minister Zhang is stupid, but that person is not stupid!"

"Didn't Yun Chu once say, 'Do your best and leave the rest to fate?'" Emperor Ning laughed, his expression did not seem anxious, but rather a bit relaxed.

There were open and covert struggles in the court, and he could not express his position openly. Many things required a balance.

If you want to destroy it, you must first make it crazy.

They are raising a tiger, making the other side's appetite bigger so that they can close the net completely.

"How's the battlefield in the west?" Kang Mengxian looked at the emperor. Apart from Wanminshu, what he was most concerned about today was the battlefield in the west. All the people in their Kang family who could go had gone. Now, everyone in the family, young and old, except for two incompetent civil officials, had gone to the west.

He feels uneasy.

"We have been trapped for half a year. General Dai sent a letter saying that the Three Kingdoms Alliance will be helpless until spring comes."

Emperor Ning sighed, "But spring is coming soon!"

Kang Mengxian nodded, "Calculating the time, it's time for something to happen."

"Report!"

"Speak." Xilang rubbed his head and looked at the messenger who came to report. This messenger was from the royal city and his face was full of panic.

Xilang's eyes narrowed, and the elegance he had initially pretended to be was long gone. He was actually a fighting madman, and the title of Mad General was not just given casually.

"The royal city has been occupied."

As soon as the messenger opened his mouth, everyone in the tent stood up one by one.

"What did you say?" The wizard grabbed the messenger's clothes, his big hands tightly contracted, and then shook them, "Say it again!"

"The royal city has been occupied, the royal family has been captured, and the king has ordered a rescue." The messenger covered the wizard's hand and looked at the wizard with horror.

The wizard looked at the man and said, "Which country's spy are you from? You will not be tolerated in this place of the Three Kingdoms Alliance!"

"Sir..." Before the messenger could explain the details, his neck was crushed by the wizard. His head seemed to have lost its support and fell limply to one side.

Xilang looked at the wizard, then looked at the messenger who had died, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Interesting!

Things are getting more interesting.

"General, the royal city has been lost. What should we do?"

Everyone who had other thoughts before now turned their eyes to Xilang.

Xilang smiled coldly, "How to arrange it? Shouldn't we ask the adults about this matter?"

As a general who was brought here, he had no say in the matter at this time.

Let him bear the infamy for the rest of his life?

Although he doesn't care, it doesn't mean he can let them do whatever they want.

He raised his head and looked at the ice on the city wall that was about to melt, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

The wizard snorted coldly, with a gloomy breath.

"Can just any random person disrupt the morale of the army?"

"The royal city has been lost? We have a hundred thousand troops guarding the border. How could a large number of troops enter the royal city?" The wizard's voice was cold, and under the black robe, his venomous snake-like eyes looked around at everyone.

A man who was a great prince looked at the wizard and said, "What if he crossed over from the Southern Barbarians or the Northern Barbarians?"

"This person is obviously from the royal city. Why is the wizard so anxious to destroy the body? What is he afraid of?"

The man's aggressive look made the wizard feel even colder.

Just as the wizard stretched out his hand, the man took a step forward and asked, "Does the wizard want to kill all the people who came to rescue the royal city?"

"What is the wizard's intention?"

The man looked righteous, his eyes were like sharp swords, and he had a feeling of going straight in.

The wizard retracted the hand he had just extended and adjusted the sleeve of his black robe. His skin, which should have been fair, turned as black as ink, and one of his hands was dry, as if all the blood had been drained out.

The pupils of everyone who saw it contracted slightly.

"It's obviously a setup, a setup to make us withdraw our troops. What is your intention in disrupting the morale of the troops?" The wizard's voice was cold. People outside didn't know what expression he had under the black robe.

Xilang didn't say anything. He was the commander-in-chief of an army, but now he seemed like an outsider.

The wizard looked at Xilang and asked, "What does the general think?"

Xi Lang waved his hand and said, "I don't think it's possible. You decide for yourselves."

In the past, everyone was fussy and needed to go through three rounds of argumentation before giving an order. Now, are you asking me to take the lead?

That's a good plan.

"The general is the commander-in-chief. The deployment of troops is naturally decided by the general." The man who had just argued with the wizard now saluted Xilang respectfully.

"General, you can naturally see that what the messenger said just now is true. If the royal city is lost, we in the western border will lose our roots, and the people will be displaced. General, would you like to hear the wailing on the ground?" The adult said sincerely.

how...

Xilang didn't take the hint at all. He just poured a mouthful of wine into his mouth, looked up at the city wall, and frowned deeply.

Who is in command?

The defense time of the city was postponed for three months. Looking at the ice wall, it was like a natural ice city, guarding the somewhat damaged city tower.

Jiang Fengsheng?

Compared to the royal city that disappointed him, he wanted to know who his opponent was.

"Your Excellency is joking. When will this general be able to make the decision?" When Xilang turned around, his eyes were filled with mockery.

He didn't just look at the adult who had just spoken, but looked around.

Everyone whose eyes passed by lowered their heads guiltily.

They came here to look at Xilang and the other side's people.

Who would have thought...
