Bai Yueguang, the stand-in for Prince Sick Jiao

After Sun Fuzhi administered the needles to Fu Xiuyun, he did wake up, and when he heard that Duke Mu was coming, he went to Fengtian Hall by force, but after a while, he collapsed again.

Fu Yunchuo was guarding outside the sleeping hall, when he saw Sun Fuzhi coming out, he hurriedly went up to him and asked, "How is your Majesty doing?"

He shook his head with a solemn expression: "I can only hold your majesty's energy now, as for when your majesty will wake up, I can't say for sure."

Fu Xiuyun had taken too many golden marrow pills before, and the incense that Yao Xing was lighting in the Chengming Palace accelerated the spread of the poison. If Sun Fuzhi hadn't temporarily stabilized the poison in his body with acupuncture, he might have already I can't stand it anymore.

Fu Yunchuo thought about it for a while, and then said: "I will continue to hide the matter of His Majesty's serious illness, but the paper cannot contain the fire after all, and we must find a way to wake Your Majesty up as soon as possible."

Sun Fuzhi nodded: "I understand."

He let Fu Xiuyun wake up briefly, just to find a reason for Fu Mingjue to leave Zongzheng Temple. Now that the imperial decree has been issued, it won't be long before Xuan Yuwei will be able to wash away his stigma and return to the battlefield.

When Song Yinian and Zhao Guanglin forged evidence and pushed the weapons hidden in Guiya Valley to Fu Mingjue, it was also because of Cai Yuan's order.

After His Majesty ordered the Sanju Department to re-investigate King Jing's case, things went very smoothly.

Within two days, Dali Temple investigated the case, but the final result was embarrassing.

Liu Shu died at the hands of Song Yinian, and the iron mine in Guiya Valley was also discovered by Zhao Guanglin, but the person who colluded with them was not the Cai family, but Ye Changkai, the general of soldiers and horses.

When this name appeared in front of everyone, most people were surprised, but Ling Qingyan knew that Ye Changkai was just a scapegoat.

"I didn't expect that he had already thought of a retreat, and he really underestimated him!"

Shen Xuhuai didn't seem so surprised by this: "The Cai family's influence in the court is deeply intertwined, and it is almost impossible to bring down the Cai family based on this matter alone, but compared to this matter, I think the more important thing right now is to It's when Fu Mingjue will take back Xuanyuwei's military power."

Ye Changkai has been imprisoned by the Ministry of Punishment, and Prince Jing's Mansion has been unsealed, but Xuanyuwei's whereabouts has not yet been determined.

Ling Qingyan: "Except for the day when Mu Guogong went to Fengtian Hall and His Majesty showed up, there is no news. I think His Majesty's illness may have worsened."

"With the eldest princess sitting in the palace, there won't be too much trouble." Shen Xuhuai's eyes became serious, "On the contrary, the situation in Tongzhou is more worrying."

Ling Qingyan felt faintly uneasy: "Last time you said that King Jing'an could last up to five days. Now three days have passed, and today is the fourth day. There is no news from the northern border. I'm worried..."

Before the voice could finish speaking, there was a rush of horseshoes approaching from far away, shattering the original tranquility of the capital.

A man rode his horse from outside the city and shouted loudly: "Tongzhou fell, King Jing'an died! Beidi's army has passed Futai Mountain—"

The voice stopped abruptly, and only a "bang" was heard, and the man fell off the horse. It was only then that Ling Qingyan saw clearly that a black arrow feather was stuck in his back.

Ling Qingyan stood up abruptly, and repeated what the man said just now with uncertainty: "He said... Tongzhou fell, King Jing'an died for his country, and Beidi has passed Futai Mountain?"

Shen Xuhuai's eyes fell on the street, and the light in his eyes became darker and darker.

The day has finally come...

The blood stained the blue bricks and spread little by little along the gaps. Everything in the world seemed to have fallen into a deathly silence. The ink clouds floating in the sky also stopped at this moment, and the black smoke that permeated the entire northern border finally drifted to the capital.

The bright day turned into night in an instant, and it seemed that the sound of the heavy horn came from the north.

finally--

A panicked wail erupted from the crowd, and children cried suddenly, pulling everyone back to reality in an instant.

The people fled in all directions, the messenger fell into a pool of blood with his eyes wide open, and the military report in his hand was blown by the wind, covering the prosperity in front of him.

On the seventh day of Fu Xiuyun's coma, Beidi's army joined forces to attack, and King Jing'an led the remnant soldiers to resist, striking stones with eggs.In the end, the remaining [-] soldiers all died in Guiyagu...

King Jing'an died in battle, Pei Ce's whereabouts were unknown, and the [-] Liangzhou guards had no leader. Seeing that Beidi was about to attack the capital, Fu Xiuyun did not show up for a long time.

The courtiers crowded in front of the Chengming Palace, their faces were flushed, and they threatened to ask to see His Majesty.

Director Li stood in front of the hall, almost hoarse, but the ministers still insisted on seeing His Majesty.He really had no choice but to ask Fu Yunchuo what to do.

"His Royal Highness, the servants are about to be unable to stop it! What do you think we should do now?"

Hearing the noise outside, Fu Yunchuo felt angry: "If Beidi really hits the capital, are they planning to use this mouth to repel the enemy?!"

She snorted coldly and continued: "Let Wei Xiu lead people to guard the gates of the capital, and no one is allowed to leave the capital immediately. Anyone who violates the order will be executed!"

Director Li hesitated and said: "Your Highness, if there is no imperial decree for this matter, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince everyone..."

"Then go ask the Empress Dowager to issue an edict!"

"Yes, yes, this servant will go now." Director Li responded repeatedly, and quickly walked out of Chengming Hall.

Fu Yunchuo rubbed the center of his brows irritably, walked into the inner hall, and said to Sun Fuzhi: "The ministers are all blocked outside the hall now, when will His Majesty wake up?"

Sun Fuzhi pursed his thin lips into a line, and said: "Your Majesty can temporarily wake up with needles, but it won't last long, and if you force it like this, it will only speed up the spread of the poison."

Fu Xiuyun had been woken up once before, if he did it again, it would be more than just falling into a coma.

Beidi's army has already passed Futai Mountain, and the Cai family is watching. If something happens to Fu Xiuyun at this time, the world may really be in chaos.

After contemplating, Fu Yunchuo ordered: "The ministers outside, I will deal with it on my own, you just look at your majesty, even if you can't wake up your majesty, you must stabilize his condition."

"Yes."

The ministers blocked the Chengming Hall, and the courtiers headed by Cai Yuan behaved even more fiercely. If it wasn't for the imperial guards blocking them, they might have already rushed in.

Cai Yuan watched this scene coldly and remained silent.

The loss of Tongzhou means that most of the thirteen states in the northern border have fallen into the hands of Beidi. As long as nothing happens, the capital will be captured before Guyu.Once the imperial capital falls, Dayan will be completely destroyed.

At this moment, the closed door of the palace finally opened, and the person who came out was not His Majesty, but the Eldest Princess.

Seeing Fu Yunchuo, those censors couldn't help but change their expressions. They greeted first, and then said: "His Royal Highness, now the enemy army has arrived at Futai Mountain, but you let the imperial guards stop here, and don't let me wait to see Your Majesty. What happened to His Majesty?"

Another person went on to say: "You said that Your Majesty needs to rest in peace, but now the battle in the north is urgent, King Jing'an died in battle, and tens of thousands of Liangzhou guards have no one to lead them. If this continues, the country will be in chaos—"

As soon as this remark came out, others echoed.

They made up their minds to see His Majesty, but Cai Yuan knew that Fu Xiuyun would not step out of Chengming Hall, or in other words, he could not step out of Chengming Hall at this moment.
