Being shaken so violently, the voice of calling is still ringing in the ears, and the person whose medicine has disappeared, is struggling to open his eyes, his fingers are flicking on his side, and his eyes are sliding quickly under the eyelids, as if He wanted to open his eyes, but the effect of the medicine had not completely disappeared, so he just kept moving his body, turning his eyes from side to side unconsciously, but he couldn't really get rid of the darkness, because he had already heard the voice from outside and wanted to make a move. What response, subconsciously murmured in a low voice.

"...Chang'an..."

When the person sitting by his bed heard him speak, he subconsciously thought that he was about to wake up, and a look of joy appeared on his face, but before he could speak again, he saw a shadow suddenly spread behind him, before he could be shocked Turning back pale, he covered his mouth and nose, and then disappeared into the room in a black light.

The room was restored to silence just now, and the person in the curtain struggled a few more times, but because no one continued to call him, the originally struggling expression slowly returned to calm, and once again sank into the boundless and endless darkness.

Compared with the bustle and bustle in the inn of the merchants and pawns at the moment, there is no doubt about it, and the two adjacent houses are more peaceful. At this time, in the Mental Cultivation Hall of the Imperial Palace in Mingdu, the person in casual clothes standing in front of the throne has a handsome face. With a hint of expression, there seemed to be deep anger in his eyes, he suddenly raised his hand and clasped the memorial in front of him, and threw it out, hitting the kneeling deputy commander of the Imperial Guard on the shoulder.

"Still can't find it? What use do I need you!"

"Returning to Your Majesty, although the empress has not been found, we have found traces of someone leaving in the mountain behind the Yuelao Temple, as well as the tunnel where the land was re-sealed."

The people kneeling next to the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, seeing Xin Yuanan getting so angry, also knew that he was angering the commander of the Imperial Guard. After waking up, they didn't say a word to them at first, and then finally saw Xin Yuanan leave. He just pleaded guilty and said that Queen Gu Zhisu would disappear because he went to report something in the palace.

Later, for some reason, his whereabouts became known. Someone wanted to kidnap the queen on purpose, and his martial arts were much better than ordinary imperial guards. While he was reporting the matter to the queen, they knocked him into a coma together with the queen. He didn't know anything about it, let alone how the queen disappeared-there were almost no loopholes in the rhetoric, the commander who was kneeling in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, and the deputy commander of the imperial guards beside him, when he thought of the imperial guards at that time The remorse and fear in the military commander's expression did not look like he could lie at all, and now the new emperor's eyes are full of anger, and he knows that those who robbed the queen are probably not as simple as they appear on the surface.

After the new emperor knew the whole story, he commanded the imperial guards who caused the empress to disappear, and now temporarily imprisoned him in the clan's mansion. Afterwards, instead of wasting time on him, he sent people to search for the empress. It took half a day, and the queen seemed to have evaporated from the world. Even if she searched the corners of Mingdu, she couldn't find any trace of him.

If they were not in the city of Mingdu, the people would probably have been taken out of the city of Mingdu before they knew it.

Once those people kidnapped the queen and went outside the city, it would definitely be difficult to recover them without alarming any courtiers.

After a few thoughts in the palm of his head, he finally temporarily suppressed his worries, bowed his hands to the new emperor on the steps, and told all the news he already knew in detail.

"That small road leads to the outside of the city of Mingdu. Some people in the day and night found that the land on that small road still smelled of sesame oil. Those people should be Empress Ling. They entered the big urn containing sesame oil. It has been half a day since they were brought out of Mingdu, and those who took away the empress must have already left Mingdu!"

When the words fell, the platform commander looked up and saw that Xin Yuanan seemed to be lost in thought when he heard what he said. He was a little worried that he would not believe what he said, so he hurriedly said again: "I beg you not to stay in the city again." Look for it, follow the traces to search outside the city!"

"Even if you infer that the queen is already outside the city, it is possible that the person who kidnapped the queen is still inside the city in order to confuse you.

Xin Yuan'an stood in the same place and pondered for a moment, his gaze became more and more obscure in the dimly lit hall. The two kneeling on the steps lowered their heads, silently waiting for the emperor to make a decision. He lowered his body and pressed his forehead to the ground, holding his breath to listen to the cold voice echoing in the hall.

"I also know what you mean. If you can't control the news from the outside, the Queen's departure from the palace will be known to all the officials, and it will be very unfavorable for the Queen to return to the palace. But now I can't control the courtiers anymore. I robbed the Queen. The people in Mingjing are very dangerous, and finding the queen is the top priority! The imperial guards will take the blame and make meritorious service, and replace all the people in Mingjingtai to search in the city. !"

When the two heard the words, they immediately replied: "I would like to obey His Majesty's order."

"Once you find the trace of the queen, if those people's martial arts are higher than those of Ming Jingtai, don't try to scare the snake without authorization, lest you really hurt the queen."

The platform commander and the deputy commander of the imperial guard retreated together. Before the palace door in front of him was completely closed, a little eunuch stumbled in and ran in. He didn't even look at Xin Yuan'an's expression at this moment, but knelt down anxiously. , lowered his body and lowered his head, said: "Your Majesty, the Minister of the Ministry of War seeks to see you! Border border urgent report!"

Before finding Gu Zhisu, when he suddenly heard the word Bianguan, the new emperor standing on the steps suddenly had an ominous premonition, and those blue eyes became deeper and deeper like ink.

The young eunuch hurriedly stood up when he heard the words, and sent a message to the outside of the palace gate. Before the sound of footsteps outside, the Minister of War, holding a folder in his hand, was almost out of breath, and ran over with a flushed face. It can be seen that the military situation in his hands is urgent, Xin Yuanan frowned slightly, and raised his hand to signal the eunuch to take the memorial.

"Your Majesty—" "There is no need to kneel."

Looking at the memorial handed in front of him, the new emperor quickly took it over and unfolded it, lowered his head and quickly glanced at the contents, and asked while looking at it.

"Come to me in a hurry, what happened?"

"Return to Your Majesty, that is the memorial written by the minister, please review it..."

The Secretary of the Ministry of War slowed down for a while, and finally suppressed his breath. Although his face was still red, he had already spoken clearly, and reported the business to the new emperor: "The last great victory in the Ye Kingdom... His Majesty sent people to work for the army a few days ago. Afterwards, news came that the Ye Kingdom did not wait for Lao Jun's team to arrive, and suddenly sent troops to attack the defenders, but fortunately the defenders had already prepared, so they resisted and did not retreat."

Before the words were finished, he noticed that the eyes of the new emperor moved slightly, moved away from the fold in front of him, turned to himself, and hurriedly lowered his head and continued speaking without daring to delay.

"However, this time Ye Nation changed its generals, and someone responded internally in the barracks, so the southern border army was defeated at first, and then the battle with Ye Nation has been a stalemate for three days—" This time, his words did not After finishing speaking, hurried footsteps sounded outside again, the new emperor raised his hand to stop his words, and just stepped down the steps and walked outside, he saw soldiers in armor kneeling outside the hall, raising their hands under the high steps. With his hands, his face covered with mud and dark brown blood, he picked up the letter paper with long feathers on it and shouted.

"Your Majesty, the military situation in the north is urgent!"

Calling in the person who came to report the letter from outside the door, the Minister of the Ministry of War found out that this man dressed as a soldier with dust on his face was actually one of the three third-class generals specially appointed by the new emperor when he sent Xiao Ye to guard the northern border. This third-class general reported back to Mingdu, which shows that the situation in the northern border is very urgent, and there is no delay at all.

"...The barbarians in the northern border changed. Marshal Xiao, who was defending the city for the first time, was shot by a poisoned arrow by a native of the northern border. He begged His Majesty to send an imperial doctor to treat him, and he also brought the antidote from the imperial pharmacy. Now General Xiao has replaced the Marshal in commanding the Northern Frontier Army."

Xin Yuan'an's face became serious when he heard the words, and he waved his sleeves and told the guards beside him: "Go and call the doctor at the imperial hospital immediately, order him to bring the medicine, and follow him to the northern border to treat Marshal Xiao."

The third-class general did not hesitate to see the new emperor, and sent the imperial doctor to bring out the medicine. His eyes turned red with excitement. Although he followed Xiao Ye, he had been guarding the northern border before, and it was only a year ago that he was transferred. After returning home, I was always worried about the situation in the northern border. After I sent my assistant Xiao Ye this time, I didn't expect such a change.

He unconsciously remembered that when the first emperor was around, he was very suspicious of Marshal Xiao who was guarding the border, and he would have to think twice about administering a little wound medicine, but now the new emperor seemed to have no doubts, and he immediately agreed as soon as he opened his mouth, which immediately made him say I can't help but be grateful, the matter in the northern border is indeed very urgent, and now there is no time to delay: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

The Minister of the Ministry of War standing on the side listened to his report, and before he stood up again, he frowned slightly. Xin Yuanan never saw his expression change, but when the person in front of him stood up, he seemed to think of something and asked in a low voice .

"Since Marshal Xiao is seriously injured, Xiao Ye is now the general defending the army. Xiao Ye was only a forward general before, and now he is in control of the northern army for the first time. Is there any difficulty that needs the support of the current court?"

The third general did not expect that the new emperor would care about such things. Thinking of Xiao Ye and the new emperor growing up together, and hearing that he also made great achievements when he seized the throne, the relationship between the two must be very deep. Looking back with a somewhat relaxed look on his face, he shook his head and replied: "Returning to Your Majesty, General Xiao has not reported anything other than the matter of Marshal Xiao. It must be that there is no need for it for the time being."

Xin Yuanan nodded when he heard the words, and was about to continue to ask, but the Minister of the Ministry of War beside him hesitated and said: "Your Majesty..."

"What, do you have something to say?"
