Li Miaoyi nodded, "Ask Jing He and Wu Xiu to go with you. At this time, one more person always has more strength, not to mention that the three of you are highly skilled in martial arts and can definitely fight one against ten."

Yun He hesitated, "But miss, our mission is to protect you. If something happens to you..."

Li Miaoyi waved her hands disapprovingly, "Now everyone is thinking of ways to deal with Beisu, how can anyone care about me? Just defend the city boldly and confidently, for me, it would be better if I could defend Fuzhou The greatest safety is that if the Beisu people enter the city, we don’t know what kind of bloody storm it will cause.”

"What the lady said is absolutely true. I will go out to discuss it with them."

Yun He originally thought he would be rejected, but unexpectedly the two agreed without thinking, and the three of them rode back to the city wall together.

Everyone defended Liangzhou for half a month.

The smell of blood mixed with the smell of death filled the air, and the golden sunlight shone through the damaged city walls onto the dusty battlefield.

On the city wall, soldiers fought life and death with their enemies, swords meeting each other, bows and arrows intersecting.

Wu Xiu took a bow and arrow and shot it on the enemy's head, and blood spurted out like a fountain. Then he leaned against the city wall, continued to adjust the angle of the bow and arrow, and shot arrows at the enemy like rain.

The red rain curtain instantly spread over the entire city wall.

Fuzhou City, which was thought to be broken within three days, was actually held firmly by these soldiers for half a month. They were not afraid of sacrifice and tried their best to protect Fuzhou and the people behind them.

Finally, the Beixiu man retreated.

No cultivation but no relaxation at all.

Every time the Northern Song people retreated, the next round of attacks would be more violent, and the number of casualties among the soldiers would gradually increase.

Today's Fuzhou no longer has the happy scene before. Now it is a battlefield, and everyone has only one thing in their hearts.

That is to kill others or be killed by others. No one wants to fall. They can only support themselves hard to prevent themselves from dying at the hands of the enemy.

It's been half a month, but there's still no movement in Shangjing City.

The magistrate became furious and swept all the letters on the table to the ground, "What are you doing, Your Majesty? How long has it been since the people who supported you came to Fuzhou even by crawling, but now there is not even a movement!" "

The housekeeper glanced at him and hurriedly lowered his head, "Sir, didn't you already say that Your Majesty will not send troops to support you?"

The prefect glared at him fiercely, "It was enough if we didn't support him before. Now half a month has passed. We only have these few troops and have been holding on for half a month. What else does he want?"

"The Liangcheng Pass was also dragged to the city by His Majesty."

"I shouldn't have been weak at that time. I should have killed His Majesty earlier. Now that his throne is secure, he doesn't care about the lives and deaths of the people."

The housekeeper nodded, and the two of them reached a rare agreement, "It would be great if the prince is still alive. He has always loved his people like a son, and this situation will definitely not happen now."

The magistrate nodded, "It's a pity that this dog emperor's palace is too deep. At that time, His Highness the Crown Prince, who was on all precautions, never thought that this thing like him would one day ascend the throne. His Highness was relieved at that time and was willing to surrender."

The prefect's eyes were slightly red when he mentioned this, and his fists were clenched tightly, "But this dog emperor is unwilling to let go! He wants to kill His Highness the Crown Prince, and he doesn't even have the unborn child and the Crown Princess. Let it go! It's really abominable!" Li Miaoyi, who was standing at the door, accidentally heard these words and stopped in her tracks. She never thought that such an old thing happened before.

After it was silent for a long time, he slowly raised his hand and knocked on the door.

The housekeeper opened the door and saw her. He bowed respectfully, "Miss Jiang is here to see you, right? You are inside."

Li Miaoyi nodded, and the housekeeper closed the door and stood guard at the door.

The prefect saw her standing up subconsciously and said, "Miss Jiang, if you have anything to do, please let me know and I will send someone to let you know. I will just go and find you. You have to go there in person. I am not treating you well."

"Your Majesty, your words are wrong. The war situation is critical now, and your precious time must not be wasted even a single second."

The prefect laughed twice and said nothing.

Li Miaoyi looked serious. In the past few days, she had also asked His Majesty whether he would send reinforcements. Although she had some speculations in her heart, she still had a glimmer of hope.

The prefect also told her in the past few days that His Majesty sent reinforcements and they would arrive soon. If she hadn't stood at the door and heard the conversation between the two, she would have been kept in the dark.

"Master Magistrate, I heard just now that your Majesty will not send anyone for reinforcements."

The magistrate looked at her deeply, his expression a little downcast, "This matter is also my fault. When His Majesty was still the prince, I was not from his camp. If His Majesty the Crown Prince ascends the throne now, I will definitely have a prosperous official career in the capital."

"But after all, I belong to His Highness the Crown Prince. Your Majesty will not let me stay in Shangjing City no matter what, so he sent me to Fuzhou."

"So many years have passed, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been dead for a long time. I thought that this matter was over, but I never thought that His Majesty would never let go of it."

After saying that, he couldn't help but look a little excited, and frowned slightly, "I will have no complaints no matter what Your Majesty does to me, even if I am killed, I will be willing to do so, but there are so many people in Fuzhou City. I’m not convinced that His Majesty would give up on them like this, and I’m not convinced by Miss Jiang!”

Li Miaoyi's expression was a little complicated. She didn't expect that the prefect had such a past, and a figure suddenly appeared in her mind.

"I want to send a message to His Royal Highness, what can you do?"

The magistrate looked at her frowning slightly and felt a little puzzled. He couldn't figure out why Li Miaoyi would get involved with the prince. Now it seemed that the relationship between the two was definitely not simple.

"Although I can't do anything, I think Master Wuxiu must have something?"

Speaking of Wu Xiu, Li Miaoyi looked worried and asked, "Is he okay? I haven't seen him these days. When I asked others, they were hesitant and refused to tell me. Is something wrong with Wu Xiu?"

The prefect hesitated for a moment, a little hesitant, but now it was about the life and death of the people of Fuzhou.

"Master Wuxiu suffered some minor injuries in the battle with Beisu a few days ago. I am afraid that he did not come here because he was afraid that you would be worried, young lady."

After hearing what he said, Li Miaoyi frowned tightly, "Send someone to call him over quickly, and I'll take a look at his injuries."

"Yes, Miss Jiang." After the magistrate said that, he turned around and went out to find the housekeeper.
