Beijing.

Emperor Liang De was sitting at the table, staring at the military reports sent to him. After a long while, he sighed: "Hou Qiyun disappoints me so much."

The ministers stood at the foot of the steps and couldn't help but be shocked when they heard the sound: "Did the Mon army already pass through Yizhou? Breaking through the barrier set by His Highness the King of Wei?"

Emperor Liang De said: "The king of Wei was defeated in the first battle, and his grain and grass were flooded. Hou Qiyun was not stupid enough, so he made a decisive decision and wrote to the neighboring states and counties to raise grain and grass..."

"General Hou shouldn't be like this..." The ministers were speechless.

How could he make such a big mistake?

But as soon as this thought came to their mind, they immediately thought of King Wei.

I'm afraid this person is holding me back.

"Even if you write a letter to ask for help from nearby states and counties, I'm afraid it will greatly delay the opportunity to fight..." The Minister of War frowned, and then said: "I just don't know if His Royal Highness King Xuan has extra reserves in the army."

Emperor Liang De said: "King Xuan has come to help."

When everyone heard these words, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief and felt that they had nothing to worry about without even thinking about it.

Emperor Liang De took their expressions into his eyes and said solemnly: "The King of Wei has been captured since this battle."

"What?" Now the faces of the ministers changed greatly, and their hearts became worried again.

The Liang Dynasty was the overlord of the Central Plains for many years.

When Emperor Liang De was still a prince, he was a tough master on the battlefield. Later he became emperor, but he also had many successors. King Xuan went to war when he was young, and he was even worse than the current emperor.

After so many years, the surrounding foreigners all shunned him when they heard his name.

It's a good thing now. After several years of being the hegemon, he suddenly lost his face!

"I heard that the Meng people are cruel in their methods, I'm afraid we need to rescue His Highness the King of Wei as soon as possible!"

"Yeah yeah."

"It's better to ask His Highness King Xuan to lead the three armies in battle..."

Emperor Liang De did not speak, he just lowered his eyes and stared at the words on the secret letter in front of him.

It reads: Princess Xuan is missing and is suspected of being abducted by the Mon people.

Next to the secret letter is an autographed letter from King Xuan.

He also wrote in the letter that the princess was missing.

Is this King Xuan testing me?

Emperor Liang De's eyes flickered.

"Your Majesty?" Seeing that he was lost in thought, the minister couldn't help but call out in a low voice.

Emperor Liang De was still not in a hurry to speak.

He thought that if he informed everyone that Princess Xuan was missing, some people would inevitably talk about her innocence...

Was King Xuan testing whether he still had any warmth in his heart?

Emperor Liang De also thought about whether King Xuan was suspicious of him because of the poisoning and was resentful of him.

If King Xuan had not tested him, he would have been worried that King Xuan was hiding secretly and had ulterior motives.

Now... I'm afraid it's just because he saw King Wei leading the army that he was dissatisfied.

Emperor Liang De finally lowered his gaze and sighed: "I also have this intention."

The ministers secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

But Emperor Liang De immediately followed the words and pressed his forehead, his face even more heavy and sad.

He leaned on the armrest and said: "How can I withstand the fright of the Mon people and run all the way? When they arrived in Yizhou, Princess Xuan took up the responsibility of the princess again and tried her best to comfort the local people. Under the fatigue and fear, the child in her belly was still alive.

It can be saved. Now King Xuan is in a state of sadness...I'm afraid..."

The ministers were secretly frightened, wondering what year it was this year?

None of the children in the wombs of Princess Xuan and Princess Wei could be saved!

At this time, the Minister of War took another step forward and said with a solemn expression: "In this case, King Xuan may be full of anger and wants to vent it..."

Instead of venting to the imperial court, venting to the Xu family who should be dispatched and executed... it would be better to let the Mon soldiers take the knife!

Others also woke up and spoke out one after another, asking Emperor Liang De to appoint King Xuan as the Marshal against Meng and temporarily take over the three armies.

Emperor Liang De was helpless and said: "Then we can only make King Xuan tired."

The imperial edict was quickly drafted and sent to the front line.

The ministers all had their own thoughts and left with sad faces.

After everyone had dispersed, Emperor Liang De said calmly: "Concubine Wan is worried about King Wei, so I will tell her about King Wei being captured so that she will not worry about it."

The palace attendant responded and went to deliver the message.

The rest of them secretly thought, Concubine Wan, no, Concubine Wan is truly out of favor now.

When he said this, didn't it make her even more worried?

As expected.

That night, Concubine Wan asked to see the emperor. However, the palace servants reminded her that she was still under grounding and was not allowed to move around without authorization.

Concubine Wan squeezed out a cry from her mouth, fell down in pain, and smashed her head.

Someone from the palace reported the situation on Concubine Wan's side to Emperor Liang De.

Emperor Liang De only said: "I understand."

I won’t say more.

The palace attendant who reported the incident retreated, but Emperor Liang De looked at a man dressed as a guard in front of him.

Emperor Liang De asked: "Xue Ning is also missing?"

"Back to Your Majesty, yes."

Emperor Liang De's face looked gloomy and uncertain.

What does his son want to do?

Emperor Liang De did not suspect that he was also captured by the Mon people.

It is still possible for a fool like the King of Wei, but Xue Ning... When he stood in front of Emperor Liang De on the day of the imperial examination, Emperor Liang De could tell at a glance that he was not a mediocre person.

He is thoughtful and somewhat cunning.

The King of Wei regarded him as an aide, and he was no different from the rat. He was just something that Xue Ning caught and played with.

"Your Majesty, do you want to search for his whereabouts?" the guard asked.

"No need."

"Tell me again, what is the situation on the battlefield now..." Emperor Liang De asked the guard.

"In the first battle, King Xuan captured the Meng national division and also captured the rebel Yao Minghui of the Xingyuan Army."

Emperor Liang's expression changed slightly: "Yao Minghui... I remember him. He is also a strong soldier."

He paused for a moment and said with a mocking tone: "There aren't many people in the city who are scheming under my brother, Yao Minghui is one of them."

Emperor Liang De's face darkened: "Let's explore again."

The guard responded: "Yes."

Emperor Liang De murmured: "Don't let me down..." King Ruoxuan discovered something he shouldn't have discovered from Yao Minghui, and the two knew each other from then on.

Then he had to do it.

Emperor Liang De closed the secret letter in front of him and heard the servant beside him flattering him: "His Royal Highness King Xuan is really powerful. I think it will only take a few days to solve the crisis of the Mon clan. His Royal Highness King Wei will also be able to return intact."

"Well, he is very powerful."

"The portrait looks just like His Majesty's in those days," the chamberlain said again.

Emperor Liang De's expression remained unchanged, but he felt heartbroken.

pity.

pity.

It was a pity that he even felt a little resentful in his heart.

…

Xue Qingyin fell asleep for another full day before she regained her strength.

When I woke up, I was on a rocking carriage.

She woke up with a start and sat up. She thought she was back to the Mon tribe again.

"Master." A voice rang in my ears.

She turned around and saw Yun Duo and A Zhuo.
