Rebirth of the Demon Queen

Chapter 84 Night Party

There were still endless debates in Jiyi Hall, but people in Huangji Hall were still panic-stricken.

The emperor did not speak, and all the civil and military officials and their family members did not dare to leave without permission. It was not until more than an hour later that Cao Lang hurried to the Huangji Hall to announce the decree, and the longevity banquet came to an end.

The wonderful longevity banquet was abandoned hastily due to an urgent military situation. The civil and military officials in the court were all frightened, and when they heard that Beidi had breached the Jinlan Pass, everyone was frightened.

Twenty-six years ago, Lizong ignored the government affairs. Today, with the assistance of Ye Quan, he took charge of political affairs for the first time. He encountered Beidi Zeng's massive attack.

That time, because the defenders of Jinlan Pass were greedy for merit and advanced rashly, they fell into Beidi's plan of diverting the tiger away from the mountain. After Beidi easily captured Jinlan Pass, they continued to attack outside the capital with great momentum. Thanks to the previous Wei Yuanhou, he turned the tide and contacted Qin Wang from all over the country.

The troops held back Beidi's momentum.

After thirty-four days, the Beidi army's food and fodder were exhausted, and then the siege of the capital was lifted.

After this battle, there were several more wars between Dayan and Beidi. Dayan learned from the previous lessons and held on to the Jinlan Pass. Beidi was finally helpless, and the border between the two countries had peace for more than 20 years.

Although Beidi was repulsed, it left a deep shadow on Dayan. After that, when Beidi was mentioned again, everyone from top to bottom in the Dayan Dynasty changed their minds when they heard about it.

Even the older people in Beijing will never forget the tragedy of twenty-six years ago. It was early winter, and the weather had turned cold. After being trapped in the city for many days, corpses could be seen everywhere on the streets. Many years later, in some secluded corners,

It was so cold that you could even pick out a few dead bones.

Unexpectedly, after many years, Beidi would break through the Jinlan Pass again. This time, Dayan might have to experience another life-and-death battle.

Xie Xi stopped laughing and sighed: "I heard that he went to see his father today and asked to accompany the army on the expedition."

After a few breaths passed, I noticed something was wrong. When I looked up, I saw Xie Xi's eyes staring blankly at him, something indescribably strange.

Seeing that Xie Xi was dressed in black, she slightly curved her lips and said teasingly: "His Royal Highness used to come in and out of my house with great arrogance, but it's rare that he would have changed into black clothes."

Xie Xi specially changed into black clothes today. Unexpectedly, he was noticed by Lin Zisu as soon as he came in. He felt happy and said with a smile: "It was my fault the past few times that brought a lot of trouble to Su Su.

I heard that your family thought the house was haunted, and I feel very sorry. For your peace, I'd better keep a low profile."

Seeing that Lin Zisu was noncommittal about what he said, Xie Xi added, "Su Su, you also think that this king is a talented person, don't you?"

It was an hour after the Lin family returned home. Bi took pity on her daughter and knelt with her for more than two hours. As soon as she arrived home, she sent Lin Zisu back to the yard to rest.

This was Xu Wentao's style. Lin Zisu thought for a moment, then put the banknote away, raised his eyes and asked, "Did the Emperor agree?"

Lin Zisu had never seen this kind of look on Xie Xi.

Lin Zisu sneered slightly, but did not answer. Xie Xi's face could not be said to be ugly, but his thick eyebrows and square face could only be regarded as ordinary, and there was still a distance from being handsome.

Xie Xi said: "How come Xu Wentao is the precious son of aunt Yong'an? How could my father agree so easily? My father asked him to go back to discuss with aunt Yong'an first, but he was reluctant. When I left the palace, he was still with my father.

He is kneeling at the door of the emperor's study."

Although Lin Zisu was sleepy, she didn't dare to rest. Looking at things like this today, Xie Xi might come to harass her again in the evening. So after washing up early, she changed into a pair of relaxed clothes and leaned on the Arhat couch.

Read a book.

Xie Xi felt his heart pounding again and couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

Lin Zisu didn't believe it. With Xu Wentao's tough personality, he would never give in easily. She stood up and walked to the table, picked up the banknote and turned it over a few times, and asked: "Xu Wentao actually gave in?"

In order to prepare for Xie Xi's arrival, Lin Zisu sent away Amber and Jade and opened the window wide.

Xie Xi was startled. When he entered the room, he saw Lin Zisu wearing a simple shirt and skirt, lying on the Arhat couch in the main room, with her bare feet on the bed rail. She had an indescribable aura.

.

The emperor spoke so eloquently that the ministers naturally did not dare to say anything. However, after the cabinet dispersed, Marquis Weiyuan went to find the emperor in private and did not know what he said to the emperor. The emperor immediately passed out in the study.

Lin Zisu was holding a book in both hands and reading it carefully, and Xie Xi had changed into black clothes today, so she didn't even notice his arrival.

Xie Xi smiled and said: "Who said there is no connection? After today's banquet, Xu Wentao handed the bet to me."

As he spoke, he took out two silver notes from his sleeves, put them on the table, and said with a smile: "You can collect these bank notes, just treat us as a partnership in this bet, and this is your dividend.

"

Speaking of the army's expedition, Xie Xi told Lin Zisu what he heard.

After Xie Xi finished speaking, he felt that what he had just said did not seem to be commensurate with his status. Then he put on a frivolous smile and said: "The people in your house are really illiterate, and they don't even think about it. Who is like me?"

Is he such a handsome ghost?"

The cabinet and the generals argued for several hours, but in the end they could not decide the winner. In the end, the emperor became furious and personally ordered Weiyuan Marquis to lead the army and Cao Lang to supervise the army. He sent 150,000 troops and set off soon to assist Luyuan.

.

Sure enough, as soon as the first watch of the drum sounded, Xie Xi, dressed in black, appeared in Lin Zisu's boudoir.

His "Susu" call was very affectionate. In the past, when Lin Zisu heard Xie Xi keep calling him, she knew that he did it intentionally and didn't bother to correct him. But the call just now was really ambiguous, so she said angrily.

He said: "Your Highness, I have nothing to do with you. It is better for us to keep our distance."

A look of worry flashed across Xie Xi's face, and he said, "Cao Shouli has invited Gong, the imperial envoy from the imperial hospital, and three or four imperial doctors to go there with him. So far, no news has come out from the palace."

Lin Zisu didn't expect that such a thing would happen after the Wanshou Banquet. Her heart was raised and she asked: "Has martial law been enforced in the palace?"

The emperor is seriously ill. As a prince, Xie Xi is supposed to serve around him. Even if the emperor is still unconscious, out of filial piety, he should stay outside the ward door and wait for the emperor to summon him when he wakes up. Unexpectedly, this Xie Xi

But he came to find himself at this critical moment.

The situation is tense now, is he really not afraid that once the emperor dies, the sky will collapse outside the palace?

Xie Xi glanced at Lin Zisu's expression and said helplessly: "Do you think the king didn't expect it? As soon as I got the news, I rushed to the palace. I was stopped at the palace gate and said that I was responding to the cabinet and the ceremony.

I am a vassal king who has been granted the title of vassal, and I am not allowed to enter or leave the palace without an imperial edict."
