Night Emperor Crazy Concubine

Chapter 480 The Fragmented Dynasty 3
At the beginning of May, Zhan Wang's army and Baili Yu's army attacked the city on two sides, facing the two leading princes of Chi Tang.

Gong Wuxie once said that Feng Tianzhan is a born warrior, this sentence is not wrong.

For the King of War, sieging cities and looting land is something that does not need to be planned at all—especially Chi Tang, who has lost his fighting spirit and lost more than half of his territory.

The two princes led the army to fight, and the morale of the army was greatly increased. If their opponent was only Baili Yu, they might still be able to fight. Unfortunately, they met the King of War, which had already announced their fiasco and defeat in advance. Perish, there is no room for struggle and resistance.

Chitang's army retreated steadily, and the queen, who was firmly seated in the middle palace, ordered someone to secretly send a letter to Zhan Xiaoyao who was far away in Beiyan.

"I hold a secret in my hands. It is related to the Nangong family. You will definitely want to know."

These words undoubtedly told Zhan Xiaoyao that Chi Tang, the empress, knew his identity and knew the deep hatred between the Nangong family and the Beiyan Dynasty——

It's not surprising that a woman in the deep palace knows about the affairs of other countries, but if she still holds a secret about this matter that other people don't know, then it can only be said that she was also a person in the game.

Zhan Xiaoyao didn't hesitate at all, and the day after receiving the letter, he set off for Chitang Imperial Capital.

He wasn't even worried that this would be a trap set to deal with him. Even if the people around him advised him to be careful, he just smiled lightly, not caring about his own safety at all.

Beiyan Imperial City was heavily guarded because officials were assassinated and killed one after another. He was still able to come and go freely, and the palace city of Chitang was no obstacle for him at all.

In the brightly lit palace, the queen in the gorgeous phoenix robe sat on the solemn phoenix seat, looking at the man in black clothes standing with his hands behind his back, the coercion accumulated over the years in charge of the harem, at this moment in this man's indifferent eyes The smoke disappeared under his gaze, leaving only the uneasiness suppressed by force and the calmness he tried his best to maintain.

"Zhan Xiaoyao?" She said, her voice had the majesty of the world.

"It's right here." Zhan Xiaoyao smiled lightly, looking at the woman who was over half a hundred years old in front of him, "The queen also participated in the Beiyan royal family's plan to deal with the Nangong family, didn't she?"

This sentence sounds extremely calm, but it is clearly a firm tone that cannot be denied.

"I just gave you a python robe for the prince." The queen didn't try to deny it, and said indifferently, "I didn't send you a letter to ask you to come to Xingshi to inquire about your crimes, and you are not qualified to ask me about Xingshi's crimes."

"Really?" Zhan Xiaoyao was noncommittal, his eyebrows raised slightly, "Then the queen is here, why?"

"Negotiate a deal with you."

"Deal?" Zhan Xiaoyao seemed to have heard some joke, and looked at the queen of Chitang mockingly, "What kind of deal can I discuss with the queen? Is it possible that the queen also wants to buy a war horse?"

"No." The queen shook her head, denying it in a calm tone, "I only enjoy the glory and wealth, I like the feeling of being in power, but I don't like war."

Don't like war?
Zhan Xiaoyao said lightly: "It's a pity, now it's up to you not to like it."

"Of course you can." The queen looked at him, and a confident smile slowly appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Zhan Xiaoyao, oh no, I should call you Nangong Xiao. Back then, Nangong Lingtian and Meng Yao only had two sons. You and that brother have a very good relationship, right?"

When Zhan Xiaoyao heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

With fine eyes, he stared at the woman without blinking, and said calmly, "What do you want to say?"

"I heard that Nangong Hao protects his younger brother like a treasure, and he is never willing to let him suffer a little bit of grievance." The queen said as if she didn't hear Zhan Xiaoyao's question, "Back when the Nangong family was not destroyed, Bei Yan In the imperial city, I don’t know how many children from aristocratic families are jealous of you, and the reason for their jealousy is not because of your family background, but because they are jealous that you have such a good brother, is this Gong right?"

Zhan Xiaoyao didn't speak, but looked at him calmly, but there was a sharp pain in his heart that couldn't be suppressed.

"If I tell you that the secret I hold is related to your elder brother..." The red lips hooked slightly, and the queen looked at Zhan Xiaoyao with a somewhat smug expression, as if she was sure of winning, "Zhan Xiaoyao , will you still reject the deal with Bengong?"

Zhan Xiaoyao looked at her coldly, "What do you want?"

"I want the war to stop immediately." She said, "You must have a way to make Feng Cang's army retreat, right? I believe you can do it, and if I tell you the secret, I'm afraid your enemies will not stop It's the Beiyan royal family and this palace."

Zhan Xiaoyao's face changed slightly, his brows and eyes drooped, but he fell into silence for a moment.

Her words obviously had some deep meaning, and there was a kind of not-so-good information faintly revealed in it.

After ten years of growth, Zhan Xiaoyao is no longer the immature boy he was at the beginning. He has extraordinary sensitivity to speculation and insight into people's hearts. He can judge whether what she said is true or not, and he can also see that, Her purpose is not only to end this war, but also to challenge the trust in his heart, and even easily shake the indestructible trust in his heart.

So, he is hesitating.

Hesitating whether to make this deal, whether to destroy the belief in my heart for a person who no longer exists.

After thinking for a long time, he took a deep breath, looked up at this dignified and majestic woman, and smiled faintly, "Okay, I agree to this deal."

After a pause, he said, "Employees have no proof, does the queen need Zhan's signature to be pledged to you?"

"I don't need it." The queen said, "Because after I tell you the secret, even if there is no written evidence, you will still make a choice that is beneficial to me."

"Really?" Zhan Xiaoyao suppressed the almost imperceptible uneasiness in his heart, "Can the queen speak?"

"Of course." The queen smiled lightly, "You can get closer."

Zhan Xiaoyao frowned, but approached Fengzuo cooperatively.

"Mr. Zhan, have you ever heard that there is a national teacher in Southern Qin named Qian Jiuze?"

The national teacher of Southern Qin...

Zhan Xiaoyao was silent, but he didn't say whether he knew this person or not, he just said: "Queen has something to say, just say it."

"The national teacher of the Southern Qin Dynasty is a warlock who knows astronomy and geography. He has supernatural powers and is a person who can manipulate souls." The queen looked at Zhan Xiaoyao, "Your brother, he once took his soul. But just a month ago, Nanqin's National Teacher's Mansion was bombed into ruins, and that national teacher also disappeared—do you know who bombed the National Teacher's Mansion?"
