Outside Xiayang City, with the sound of bells and drums ringing gold to withdraw troops, the big cannibals suddenly dispersed like a tide.

The guard, who hadn't closed his eyes all day and night, was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.

Some people fell to the ground exhaustedly and fell into a deep sleep before they even waited for the command from the general.

Fortunately, most of the big cannibals were exhausted, otherwise, if they came back to do it again, the guards would have to peel off their skin even if they didn't die.

It's cold and freezing, and if you fall asleep in the open field in such weather, you will be considered a minor illness. The guards can only order soldiers who are still capable of fighting to move their colleagues to the barracks, so they can save their lives.

Looking at the soldiers who were still frowning from time to time even in a dream, the guard sighed.

Unknowingly, the war started by Chetuo people's surprise attack from thousands of miles away has lasted for almost half a year.

The Chetuo people seemed to have been preparing for this battle for a long time. From the very beginning, they were in a hurry. In less than half a year, they conquered Shanggu City and the four towns in the west along the way, and also led the Shiyu Kingdom to deploy the defense line on the west side. Totally lost.

Not only that, the people of Shiyu had to face the threat of their deadly enemies, and King Chetuo used some advantage to impress the King of Dashi. The Dashiren took advantage of the battle between the two armies to provoke the defenders of the six towns in the north of Shiyu country.

Taking advantage of King Shiyu's withdrawal of troops to narrow the line of defense, he sent troops to besiege two important towns on the northern line of defense in one fell swoop.

Xiayang City where he is located is one of them.

Encountering enemies on the two fronts in the northwest also forced the Shiyu people to stretch the front line longer and longer, which also gave the opponent a chance.

The big cannibal decisively sent troops to cut off the supply line of Xiayang City. Now the remaining food in Xiayang City can only last no more than seven days. If there is no reinforcement within seven days, Xiayang City will fall sooner or later.

As the defender of Xiayang City and an old opponent of Dashi, he didn't think he would end well.

Cheng Bin fell into deep thought.

Surrounded by powerful enemies outside and treacherous ministers in power, even a small country like Yunlan Kingdom, which is subordinate to Chetuo Kingdom, dares to challenge Shiyu Kingdom continuously.

Thinking of this possibility, Cheng Bin shuddered.

……

Chetuo Wangjing.

Different from the scene of burning oil in the past, the palace was full of gloom and gloom, Pei Miaode stared at the urgently sent military letter in his hand, lost in thought.

But now those who are qualified to sit in the palace, except for the two elder heirs with real power, the rest are ministers who have been entrusted with important tasks. It can be said that if this Wenhua Palace collapses, Chetuo's sky will almost collapse collapsed.

"Now that His Majesty has encountered misfortune in the army, His Royal Highness should come up with a charter. If Che Tuo's backbone is not stable, how can he count on other ministers?"

Seeing that Pei Miaode was still silent, Pei Shouer finally couldn't sit still and stood up, persuading Pei Miaode.

After ten years of hard work, the second prince had already recognized the reality. Although he could not sit on the supreme throne, with his heir status, it couldn't be easier to live a lifetime of wealth and happiness.

Moreover, Pei Miaode is different from the two brothers, as long as his bottom line is not touched, even the brother who once robbed him of the crown prince's position can still entrust him with important responsibilities.

...

Of course, it's also possible that he is confident that the two brothers can't make waves.

Like the news of Chetuo King's assassination in the army, Pei Miaode didn't intend to slow down his second brother at all, as soon as he got the military information, he slipped it to himself who was reporting government affairs at that time.

The other ministers were shocked when they heard this.

Even though Pei Miaode's deeds in these years are obvious to all, he will definitely be a generation of virtuous kings in the future, but compared with the talented and generous King Chetuo today, he is far behind in both prestige and status.

Now, in the eyes of many Chetuo people, the Chetuo King is a generation of holy kings who can be compared with the founding monarch, and their reverence and worship for him are almost equal to that of a god.

Such a god king on the ground was conspired and attacked. If the news spread, it would be a big mess.

"This matter must not be spread!"

Before Pei Miaode could speak, the general and the old matriarch said in unison, and at the same time they did not forget to cast a vigilant glance at Pei Shouer.

"I am not the kind of person who acts recklessly, so I naturally understand the importance of this matter."

Pei Miaode is not a fool, he actually made a decision in his heart to call a few people over.

"The seventh-grade green lotus from Qianfo Temple can solve adversity. If it can be sent to the front line, it may be able to solve the urgent need of the father. However, the road is dangerous and unpredictable, so I decided to go to the front line in person."

"The grandson is still young, so he is not allowed to supervise the country. You can make the princess hold the seal of the palace. Brother Wang and all the lovers will assist the state affairs. Don't leak the news that the palace has left the capital."

What Pei Miaode said really surprised the three of them.

Almost without thinking, the old master jumped out and objected.

"Your Highness is a body of ten thousand gold. In the future, he will inherit the great power, and everyone expects it. If something happens on the road, then Che Tuo will lose His Majesty and the Crown Prince on the same day. If the news is leaked by someone with a heart, it will definitely cause chaos in the world. It must not be done." Take risks easily!"

Pei Shouer also looked complicated.

Now that the eldest prince is imprisoned, his father's life and death are unpredictable, and this prince is going to risk himself again. With such a good opportunity, does he really believe in himself so much?

Even Pei Shouer didn't know if he would be tempted.

"It's better to let the minister go to escort it!"

Unexpectedly, Pei Shouer took the initiative to take over this task.

"It's not that I and Brother Wang are being polite, it's just that this road is dangerous. Even if Brother Wang relies on a suppressor, he may not be able to deliver the lotus platform safely. Don't forget, the father also has a suppressor on him."

Pei Miaode shook his head.

From the time he heard that King Che Tuo was plotted against and fell into a coma, he knew it was the hands of the monsters.

With the second brother's cultivation base, it might be okay to fight on horseback, but what's the difference between meeting a monster and going to die?
In the whole world, only myself and Yunyao can still fight.

However, firstly, it is not appropriate for the daughter-in-law to go to the army alone to deliver things to the father-in-law, and secondly, there is always someone who needs to stay in the palace to prevent the monsters from jumping over the wall. After thinking about it, there is no more suitable person than myself.

But even if Pei Miaode explained it like this, the general still couldn't accept it.

He is Pei Miaode's biological uncle and Queen Shanyin's eldest brother, he knows very well that if he agrees with his eldest nephew today, his younger sister will be able to enter Shanfu tomorrow.

When the matter leaks out, not to mention the younger sister, his father will be able to beat him half to death.

However, Pei Miaode seemed to see through his mind.

"This palace has made up its mind now. Don't tell the queen mother about this matter. As for how to get over the lake, the princess naturally has a way. You guys should keep your mouth shut."

From the beginning to the end, Pei Miaode had no intention of discussing with them at all.
