princess regent lifted from her grave

The courtiers who had returned to the mansion in the afternoon were finally convinced of what the empress had said above the hall that Xiyou Kingdom would be destroyed.

They also received news about General Sun's defeat.

For a while, the ministers were panicked and wanted to find someone who could take charge of the matter to discuss the matter.

So they all went to the palace,

Unexpectedly, the gate of the palace was closed tightly, and the empress had ordered no one to enter the palace. Seeing this, the courtiers were even more panicked.

They all speculated, could it be that the wizard already knew about the great defeat, so he had already fled, so the courtiers also hurried back to the house, and each made their own plans.

At this time, the queen had already brought the prince into the palace.

In the queen's bedroom, besides the comatose prince, there were also the still comatose emperor and the foolish princess, and the second prince who had passed away was the last to be carried in.

The queen sat alone in front of the table, which was covered with four wine bottles. After contemplating for a long time, she slowly stretched out her hand, picked up the wine jug with trembling hands, and filled each wine bottle.

The queen is waiting for a news, waiting for the news that the general beheaded Taishi Xu,

Only in this way was she willing to drink the poisoned wine.

That military commander lived up to the expectations of the empress. Knowing that General Tian, ​​who was guarding the treasury, had captured Grand Master Xu, he rushed to the treasury immediately.

Seeing Grand Master Xu, without saying a word, he directly took the sharp sword and cut off the heads of Grand Master Xu and his son.

He led the guards to Xu's mansion for a good search.

After receiving the news that Grand Master Xu had been beheaded, the empress suddenly felt that the anger in her heart had disappeared, and she had no more nostalgia.

Then he slowly got up and took the wine bottle, and fed each person with a calm expression, and finally he was himself.

The general didn't want to go to the palace to report the matter after he searched out any treasury silver in the Xu manor.

However, the gate of the palace was closed tightly, and the empress ordered that no one should be allowed to enter, and the general heard that General Sun was defeated and that the Purple Sacred Kingdom was attacking, so he hurried back to the mansion to make plans and ignored it.

After two days,

The general and deputy commander of Zisheng Kingdom led the army into the capital of Xiyou Kingdom.

In the past two days, people in the capital can be said to be in panic. The bustling streets that were crowded with people, brightly lit, and bustling have completely disappeared.

Instead, the people who walked hurriedly, carried their bags, dragged their families and children, and fled quickly. They had already learned the news that the Purple Sacred Kingdom was about to capture the capital, and they fled in order to save their lives.

I don't know who released the news. The soldiers of the Purple Sacred Kingdom are extremely cruel. It is hard to guarantee that they will not kill innocent people like them. The people in the city who are in panic flee if they can, and those who cannot escape have to stay at home and wait to die.

You can see everywhere on those streets, five or six carriages passing by full of belongings, and the servants following closely behind, you don't need to ask, I don't know which rich and noble family it is, or, The scene of the courtiers fleeing.

Those who want to escape have already fled the capital quickly, and those who don't want to escape or cannot escape have already hidden in their homes and no longer go out.

When the general of the Purple Holy Kingdom and the deputy commander of the Red Forest Army entered the capital, what they saw was such a desolate scene on the streets.

They didn't care when they saw the desolate street. They naturally understood that as long as the Xiyou Kingdom surrendered to the Purple Holy Kingdom, the scene of the street market would naturally return to its original state.

Those guards who learned that General Sun was defeated and that the ministers were also fleeing city guards had already fled and disappeared, which allowed the generals of the Purple Sacred Kingdom to enter the capital unimpeded.

At this time, the general led the army and headed directly towards the palace of Xiyou Kingdom.

In the courtyard

Under the shade of the tree, Ye Lijue and Mu Fengyan, who were sitting on the stone bench, were checking the news quickly.

At this time, various objects were still placed on the stone table, except for the objects that Leng Ming brought back from the wizard's mansion that day,

And what Mu Fengyan and Ye Lijue searched on the Youxian Mountain yesterday,

They already knew the true identity of the wizard. After receiving the letter from Feige, King Xiu checked it very carefully. All the information he could find and King Xiu's guesses were all from the letter from Feige and Ye Lijue.

After Ye Lijue and Mu Fengyan went to Youxian Mountain to search yesterday, they further confirmed the identity of the wizard.

Even Mu Fengyan didn't think of the true identity of the wizard.

At this time, Mu Fengyan had just received the letter from Feige handed over by Ye Lijue, she glanced at it, it was a message from the commander of the Red Forest Army who attacked Nan'an Kingdom,

It said that they had already invaded the capital of Nan'an Kingdom, the prince was captured, and the palace had been captured. Most of the masters in the Nan'an Kingdom's palace had fled before the palace was captured, and those who hadn't escaped or had no time to escape had already been imprisoned. In the prison, waiting for Ye Lijue's release.

The leader of the Red Forest Army also told a strange thing. After they invaded the palace, the queen of Nan'an Kingdom did not flee, but threatened that the Zisheng Kingdom would be destroyed, and the wizard of Xiyou Kingdom would come to rescue her Their mother and son, the empress of Nan'an Kingdom's tone was firm, which attracted the commander's attention and reported the matter.

Just after Mu Fengyan finished checking, Qingyu came to report quickly with a happy face, this time there is no need to hide the report, she looked at Ye Lijue and said,

"My Majesty, General Zhang and his deputy commander have already led the army into the capital, and they are currently fighting with the guards in the palace of Xiyou Kingdom. It will not take long before they will capture the palace."

Ye Lijue nodded lightly when he heard the words, and ordered,

"Xiang Ling and General Zhang, after capturing the palace, put Emperor Xiyou and the Empress in prison, and all the people in the harem and even the maids and servants were thrown out of the palace. As for the rest, we will wait for my order."

After Mu Fengyan saw that Qing Yu had finished reporting and left, when he was about to inquire about Nan'an,

Mu Xiu led a servant girl over in a hurry, and after the maid saluted, she reported,

"Miss, the lady regained consciousness. At the beginning, she was on guard against us. After we told her that she was rescued by the lady, she relaxed her vigilance. She wanted to personally thank the lady. The servant girl came to report to the lady first. If Miss agrees, this servant will bring her here."

Mu Fengyan was not too surprised when she heard the words, it was exactly the same as the day she had estimated.

Then he nodded to the maid and said, "You bring that lady here."

After the maid left in a hurry, Mu Fengyan first put away the letter in her hand, planning to ask Ye Lijue later,

Maybe this lady will bring them some surprises,

Although the identity of the wizard has been confirmed, looking at some of the behaviors of the wizard, it is still somewhat unreasonable.

After Mu Fengyan and Ye Lijue put the things in their hands away, Mu Xiu also brought tea,

While sipping tea, Mu Fengyan waited for the lady to come,

When he saw the lady and the person holding his arm tightly from a distance, he raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the two of them thoughtfully.
