Above the city tower, fierce drums sounded, and the hanging bell hanging outside the palace was also struck by someone, and the urgent rhythm resounded throughout the capital.
Boom boom boom!
The drumbeat was rapid and exciting, which alarmed Du You, the leader of the Guards on duty.
Du You led his men straight to the tower: "What's going on?"
"Bei Que is in a hurry! Alien troops of millions of people are marching south, and Chen Bing is at Shanhaiguan!"
Du You looked up, the sky was billowing with smoke, and the sound of heavy drums seemed to be beating in his heart.
?The emperor's life was hanging by a thread, and the coalition forces of foreign races raised their troops to attack. The Great Xia Dynasty, from the officials to the common people, was a little caught off guard.
Fortunately, Prime Minister Shen Shu was quite decisive, and immediately ordered the three major armies of the dynasty to rush to the battlefield to reinforce and keep Shanhaiguan.
Since the founding of the Great Xia Dynasty, it has been more than 700 years since the war with foreign races, but most of the wars in the past were small and medium-scale wars. This is the first time that a million-level legion war has been dispatched.
However, the emperor couldn't manage the council at this time, which made the morale of the people on Daxia's side lowered.
At the critical moment, all officials of the imperial court remained calm, established a temporary war mechanism, and worked together to join the war, recruiting people, producing armaments, transporting food and grass, and coordinating all parties This huge empire that has developed for more than 700 years It was already getting bloated day by day, and there were many moths inside, but in the face of those aliens who made them instinctively hostile from the bottom of their hearts, everyone unexpectedly united and turned all their guns to the outside.
This war lasted for five full years, the two sides came and went, and there was almost no victory or defeat.
In the imperial palace, he managed to save his life by chance but left serious sequelae. As a result, the very weak emperor went down and was carried back to the palace while lying in a soft sedan chair. A little eunuch ran in and whispered a few words to the emperor's personal eunuch.
The emperor vaguely heard some movement, so he barely propped up his body, and through the gap in the curtain, he asked softly to Li An, the personal eunuch next to the bed: "What happened?"
Li An replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, it's just a few young eunuchs who are not doing their job effectively, and the slaves are about to reprimand them. If you disturb your majesty's rest, you will die!"
Seeing that the emperor didn't ask any more questions, because his body was weak and fell into a coma again, Li An drew the curtain again, and walked towards the outside of the hall in a leisurely manner, with a sneer on his lips.
At the door of the bedroom, the familiar mother and son were being stopped there by several palace guards, and a woman's excited and angry voice was vaguely heard.
"I want to see Your Majesty! What qualifications do you have to stop me?"
Five years later, Chu Qianxi is still the only mistress in the entire harem. But even the graceful red palace attire and the delicate and moving makeup could not conceal the paleness and haggardness of her face.
The pair of boys and girls led by her were charming and charming, but at this moment they couldn't help shrinking behind their mother, looking a little timid.
As a queen, she was stopped outside the emperor's bedroom by a few humble palace people, and such a thing had happened more than once, which really made Chu Qianxi extremely annoyed.
At the same time, her heart was always filled with fear.
Ever since the emperor was assassinated five years ago, Chu Qianxi has been in an embarrassing situation.
The emperor was stunned by Chu Qianxi back then, and he was abolished, dismissed from the harem, and even threw out his sons one by one. All the officials' favor towards Chu Qianxi fell below the negative value.
This time the emperor was assassinated again because he secretly took Chu Qianxi to celebrate her birthday. Since the place where the two met for the first time, it was Chu Qianxi's own sister who broke the emperor's identity. In the end, the emperor was seriously injured, but Chu Qianxi didn't even break the skin.
All these kinds of doubts were superimposed, and everyone's favorability towards Chu Qianxi fell below the negative value. For a while, there was an atmosphere of killing the demon queen in the hall.
If the emperor hadn't woken up in time and supported his weak body, he would have kept Chu Qianxi no matter what, she might have died in the accident that year.
Because of this, Chu Qianxi fully realized that her own strength was weak, and only by firmly grasping the emperor's favor could she live well, so she began to care for the emperor, serving decoctions and medicines personally, and staying in front of the imperial court every day.
But I don't know if it was her illusion, the emperor's attitude towards her was ups and downs. Whenever she was with the emperor, he loved her like a treasure, but when she returned to his palace, he was often forgotten by the emperor, and occasionally got a reprimand. Especially recently, she couldn't even enter the emperor's bedroom.
This made Chu Qianxi begin to suspect that?, the easier it is to be attracted by the child of luck. On the contrary, people with low luck will be less affected, and some people may even become hostile to it.
After Xiao Wang wiped out most of the emperor's luck, Chu Qianxi's attraction to the emperor gradually faded. After five years of struggle, the emperor finally came to his senses and temporarily got rid of the mentally disabled state.
World Consciousness originally wanted to use Chu Qianxi's influence on the emperor to restrain Xiao Huang from ascending to the throne, so that Xiao Huang would directly use rough methods in a hurry. In the end, he became the "eternal tyrant who killed his father" in the memory he instilled in Chu Qianxi. It has to be said that he has a good understanding of Xiao Wang's character.
After all, if Xiao Wang, who was too lazy to fight in the palace, really got impatient, he might really do something to kill the emperor directly.
And once this is the case, although it can be quickly ascended, it will leave troubles within the Great Xia Dynasty. Once the hearts of the people are not in harmony, when dealing with foreign races, there will inevitably be some less chances of winning.
However, Xiao Wang's struggle with the world consciousness must not have the slightest omission. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
