The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

"okay."

With an innocent and naive expression, Murong Jiu didn't think much of it when she heard that Jia Daoshi wanted to see her. She called out to Zhaocai and then followed Jia Daoshi back to the room.

"My lord, what's the matter? Why are you being so mysterious?" Murong Jiu asked with a curious expression.

Jia Daoshi slammed the door shut and then picked up Murong Jiu in his arms.

"so……"

Murong Jiu understood Jia Daoshi's meaning, and her face flushed as she was carried to the bed.

……

Three hours later, Jia Daoshi finally left the room, satisfied, amidst Murong Jiu's coquettish complaints.

I had just walked into the living room to get a drink of water when I ran into the Empress, who had just returned from court.

That black phoenix robe with gold trim made Ji Bingyan look noble and extraordinary!

Ji Bingyan only goes to the palace when she is attending court to handle government affairs, and she returns to the manor as soon as court is over.

Since becoming emperor, Ji Bingyan has been in a pretty good mood, and she always has a smile on her face when she returns.

This means I've found my purpose in life.

But today, her embroidered eyebrows were furrowed, and she seemed unhappy.

"My wife, what's wrong? Who's been upsetting you?"

Upon seeing this, Jia Daoshi hurriedly drank the water in his cup and went forward to inquire about the situation.

"It was my uncle. When the Iron Forest Army marched south to conquer Wu Quan, an accident happened."

Ji Bingyan nodded and then recounted what had happened in Tielin's army.

"A master from Yun Gu Lei Feng?"

Jia Daoshi was taken aback. These monks were really troublesome. They had chased him all the way to Yilan County, and now they dared to attack the imperial army!

"Cousin, both my cousin and I are injured. The Iron Forest Army can only rest on the spot. However, Wu Quan's army hasn't moved either, so it seems we're at a stalemate. But I have a bad feeling about this."

Ji Bingyan was indeed somewhat worried.

Yun Gu Lei Feng are three of the most mysterious and unknown places in the martial arts world.

Moreover, they are very powerful.

Previously, Yun Gu Lei Feng would not have participated in the court's struggles.

Moreover, the imperial court was also very wary of this sect because their brainwashing skills were too strong!

Historically, there was a dynasty that was very close to Yun Gu Lei Feng, and in the end, the entire royal family was controlled by Yun Gu Lei Feng!

Ultimately, this led to the downfall of the dynasty.

After that experience, successive dynasties were very wary of Yun Gu Lei Feng.

But unexpectedly, Wu Quan was so bold as to cooperate with Yun Gu Lei Feng!

"The power of Yun Gu Lei Feng is immense. Now that they've allied with Wu Quan, I'm afraid other forces will also be eager to make their move. The imperial court is in a very difficult situation right now!"

Ji Bingyan was feeling quite tired!

Having just taken office and already facing such a disastrous start, anyone in that position would be exhausted.

"Don't be afraid."

Jia Daoshi pulled Ji Bingyan into his arms and gently comforted her, "Isn't there still your husband here? Yun Gu Lei Feng is awesome, but your husband is the man who inherited the dragon egg. These monks want to shake my wife's rule, they're just asking for death! I'd like to see how many levels of their Golden Bell Iron Shirt techniques they've reached, and how many punches they can withstand!"

"Ugh... Pfft!"

Upon hearing Jia Daoshi's words, Ji Bingyan, who was feeling somewhat down and irritable, couldn't help but laugh.

That being said, Ji Bingyan simply enjoys chatting with Jia Daoshi; chatting with Jia Daoshi makes her happy and relaxed.

And it can also put her mind at ease.

In Jia Daoshi's words, that means there is no involution and no anxiety.

Sure enough, without this husband, Ji Bingyan wouldn't have been able to hold the throne for even a day.

Unfortunately, before the couple could have a chance to chat for a while, the female official Song Zhaoruo rushed in from outside in a hurry.

Song Zhaoruo was Ji Wuxin's personal maid before, and after Ji Bingyan became empress, she was responsible for assisting Ji Bingyan.

Some important memorials and battle reports needed to be reported to Ji Bingyan through Song Zhaoruo, since Ji Bingyan had too many things to deal with every day!

Song Zhaoruo is usually very calm and composed, so for her to show such a flustered expression means that something serious must have happened!

"Lord Song, what's wrong?"

Ji Bingyan stood up and asked.

Song Zhaoruo handed over a battle report stained with crimson blood: "A request for reinforcements from the western border: The Holy Maiden of the Western Eight Kingdoms' Holy Maiden Temple led an army of 300,000 men, marching all the way from the Kushan Grasslands. Near the cliff city gate, they suddenly borrowed the help of the Yuezhi and joined forces with the Yuezhi's army of 200,000 men to storm the western city gate of my Great Jing!"

"Ok?"

Ji Bingyan's expression changed, and she hurriedly took the battle report from Song Zhaoruo's hand!

Upon seeing this, Ji Bingyan's heart jumped.

"My lord! Look!"

Ji Bingyan handed the battle report to Jia Daoshi. Having just read the report, she was extremely angry!

His eyes were already filled with murderous intent!

When Jia Daoshi took the battle report and read the information on it, he understood why his wife had suddenly become so angry.

It's not because of anything else, but because a traitor has appeared on the border of Dajing.

It was thanks to the help of this despicable traitor that the enemy broke through a gap on the western border. Now the Da Jing army is in a very passive position, and Prince Shen Li of Zhenbei has led his troops from Juebi City to provide reinforcements.

And speaking of this traitor, that's even more infuriating!

Because this is a very famous sect in the Northwest, called Midnight!

This Third Gate Master was once treated with great respect by the late emperor, who hired him as a double-sword instructor for the army. He himself was also a third-rank military officer in the imperial court, granted a fiefdom, and amassed countless riches. He even married a local princess, which can be considered a great favor from the emperor.

But now, Sangengtian has betrayed Dajing!

I betrayed you!

How could Ji Bingyan not be angry after seeing such a battle report!

He had only been in office for a short time when he was beset by internal and external troubles!

If we're not careful, these traitors will sink this great ship, Da Jing!

I believe that many ambitious individuals will soon emerge!

However, Jia Daoshi did not see it that way.

Even in the most desperate situations, there is always a chance for survival. If all these ambitious individuals show themselves this time, we can seize the opportunity to wipe them all out!

Give Dajing a united and stable rear base.

After meeting the Great Jing Ancestor, Jia Daoshi wanted to travel around the world and explore more.

Therefore, a stable, safe, and worry-free large-scale development is essential!

Although the scenery looks dangerous now, if we can resolve all these problems at once, we can go out and explore with peace of mind.

Therefore, the current situation is actually a lucky coincidence, just as Jia Daoshi had hoped.

"My lady, don't panic. I'll make preparations now and personally lead the army to wipe out these traitors!"
