Chapter 294 Murong Zheng
Chapter 294 Murong Zheng
"Why did the King of Beixiang ask you to come here so late at night?" A majestic voice came from the room. From the voice, one could tell that the person in the room was not in a good mood at the moment.
Chief Tian's face turned pale, and even his tongue trembled when he spoke, "Reporting to the emperor, it's gone, it's gone, all gone."
The people in the room were instantly furious, "What do you mean I'm dead? Eunuch Hua, drag this lunatic down and chop him up."
The guards dragged Chief Tian up from the ground. Chief Tian was frightened and quickly broke free from the guards. He knelt on the ground and trembled all over, saying, "I deserve to die, I deserve to die, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
"It was Prince Beixiang and his 400,000 troops. Prince Beixiang led an army of 200,000 to attack Guanshan City but was completely wiped out. Even the 200,000 troops in Fengyue City were reduced to only 70,000. All of this was the plan of Crown Prince Jia Lan! Now Prince Beixiang and Deputy General Zhang have been captured by Jia Lan, and Fengyue City has... returned to Jia Lan's hands..."
Buzz! Chief Tian's words were like a bomb exploding in the mind of the Western Jin Emperor. He felt dizzy and could not support his body.
A man in the next room suddenly opened his eyes. His eyes were brown, sharp and fierce like an eagle's. If you look closely, you can see many faint red lines on his neck.
The Emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty staggered out of the room without even wearing his outer robe. Eunuch Hua rushed forward to support him, but was pushed away by the Emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty. He crashed into a stone pillar and dared not utter a word even with a bloody head.
People often say that serving the king is like serving a tiger, and even the most capable ministers in the world cannot escape.
The Emperor of Western Jin walked towards Chief Tian step by step.
Upon seeing this, Chief Tian lowered his head as low as he could, but his body trembled uncontrollably and beads of sweat dripped from his head.
The Western Jin Emperor looked at Chief Tian with sinister eyes, kicked him to the ground, and roared, "Didn't King Beixiang guarantee that everything would be safe? Wasn't he full of confidence? Didn't he say that the soldiers in Fengyue City and Guanshan City were poisoned? Idiots! A bunch of idiots, not only did they fail to capture the city, but they also lost 400,000 troops in vain!"
"Good-for-nothing, idiot, you want to marry my princess? I'm going to kill you!"
After the Western Jin Emperor finished speaking, he picked up the sword of a guard beside him and was about to chop the Tian leader to death.
Chief Tian was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, crying and begging the emperor.
Chirp——
The sound of a door opening was heard, and the noisy sounds in the yard stopped abruptly.
The man was dressed in a trailing white robe, with a thin but resolute face, handsome features, eagle-like sharp eyes and sharp thin lips. All of his facial features showed his innate nobility.
The Western Jin Emperor's angry face disappeared, replaced by a fatherly look.
"Zheng'er, are you awake?"
Murong Zheng pursed his lips, glanced lightly at everyone with indifference, turned around, and closed the door, as if he had never been there.
The Emperor of Western Jin seemed to have gotten used to his appearance, and there was not a trace of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Thinking of his illness, the Emperor of the Western Jin Dynasty put down the sword in his hand, sighed lightly, waved his hand, and Chief Tian saved his life.
"Go and call the Emperor's uncle, Captain Wu, and Deputy General Mo to the lobby."
The Western Jin emperor said to the guard beside him, and the guard left after receiving the order. The emperor glanced at Chief Tian on the ground and said, "You also go to the lobby and wait."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for not killing me. I will go right away."
After Chief Tian knelt down to express his gratitude, he quickly fled the place.
above the lobby.
After listening to Chief Tian's description, a solemn atmosphere filled the hall.
"We took Wangfeng City and Fengyue City easily, and we didn't see any experts from Jialan guarding the city. How come we encountered such a change when we arrived at Guanshan City?" Captain Wu said solemnly.
“Could it be foreign aid?”
Deputy General Mo's words woke up everyone present. The Emperor of Western Jin narrowed his eyes slightly, like a stereotyped puppet in deep thought, but his eyes were like deep and sharp blades that made people dare not look directly at him.
"What Deputy General Mo said makes sense."
"Let's not talk about his external aid for now. From the fact that Chief Tian was able to come back alive, we know that Jia Lan will send troops to us next. Now we are faced with the question of how to deal with Jia Lan's military strength."
Murong Jun, the uncle of the Western Jin emperor, who had been silent all this time, spoke.
The Emperor of Western Jin narrowed his eyes. Since there were so many masters, how could this small leader possibly get rid of the pursuers behind him? There was only one reason, Jia Lan deliberately let him leave to tip off the enemy.
Jia Lan’s purpose was very clear. They wanted to confront the Western Jin Dynasty head-on and retake Wangfeng City.
Upon hearing this, Chief Tian was shocked and remembered the scene when he was escaping. All his personal soldiers were captured, but he escaped by chance. However, there were always pursuers behind him. Later, for some reason, they stopped chasing him. He thought he was close to Wangfeng City, so those people did not catch up with him.
"Chief Tian, how many troops do they have?" asked the Emperor of Western Jin.
Chief Tian thought about it and said, "There are less than 200,000 people, but there are more than a dozen strong ones among them, including spirit generals, spirit kings, and two whose strength is unclear. One of them is a girl who seems to be a spirit master. When King Beixiang wanted to escape, it was the mysterious girl who slapped him with a palm, and all the bones in his body were shattered..."
Chief Tian felt his scalp tingling and his heart pounding whenever he recalled that scene.
"Your Majesty, although we have 300,000 elite soldiers, Jia Lan also has external aid and assassins. We don't know how many assassins there are. If they fight to the death, it will be a headache."
Captain Wu said seriously that if their Western Jin Dynasty's iron cavalry were still there, they would not be afraid, but distant water cannot quench a nearby fire.
The sky was gray.
Two figures shuttled through Wangfeng City, quickly searching for the location of the military camp.
"Ayue, take these medicinal powders and put them in the rice cooker in the military camp kitchen later. I'll put some in the wine cellar." Ji Jiuying looked down and said softly. The two of them were leaning close to each other, and the breath from their conversation rushed to Gong Mingyue's neck, making it hot and itchy.
Gong Mingyue's dark eyes became deeper. He looked down at Ji Jiuying who had a serious expression on her face and whispered in her ear.
Ji Jiuying was slightly startled, then came to her senses and poked his chest with her finger, "Go quickly, are you stupid?"
"Good~"
Gong Mingyue left quickly. He was afraid that if he didn't leave, he would not be able to control himself. Looking at his fleeing figure, Ji Jiuying raised an eyebrow.
Ji Jiuying quickly found the wine cellar and sprinkled the powder into the wine bottles using her spiritual power. Just as she was about to leave, a faint sound of footsteps made Ji Jiuying alert.
The footsteps of the person coming were getting faster and faster, getting closer and closer. Ji Jiuying dodged and hid in the space.
Chirp——
The door of the wine cellar was pushed open from the outside, and a man in a white robe appeared at the door. He stared at the surroundings with eyes as sharp as an eagle, and finally stopped in front of a wall. He stared at it intently and took a deep breath. Yes, this is it...
Ji Jiuying in the space opened her eyes wide. The man outside seemed to be face to face with her in the space. His sharp eyes seemed to be able to see through her, making Ji Jiuying feel creepy instantly~
