The Empress Kneels in Her Palace to Admit Her Mistakes After Slaying Her Ways in the Female-Oriented

Chen Xiong's expression changed drastically in an instant.

He immediately realized who the person was!

Xiao Che!

The former King of Yunjing's younger brother was bestowed the title of King of Yunjing by the current Empress Xiao Mingzhao. However, this title of King of Yunjing was merely an empty name, without any real power.

However, he didn't have any real power in his hands. This was what Prince Qing of Yunjing said to himself. For a general like him who was guarding the border, he was a prince with the power of life and death!

He is a prince who is high above everyone else!

As Chen Xiong thought of these things, various legends about this prince in Yunjing instantly flashed through his mind.

This prince loved to travel incognito, seeking true love as a commoner. And when seeking love as a commoner, he didn't even care about being punched, kicked, or humiliated. But…

There has never been a single person who could escape the prince's pretentious moments after he revealed his true identity.

and so……

Is it now that Chen Xiong has caught up?

Chen Xiong was trembling with fear and quickly knelt down: "Your Highness, Your Highness, this humble general was blind and did not recognize your greatness. I truly did not mean it. Please spare my life, Your Highness, spare my life..."

Chen Xiong looked extremely pitiful as he pleaded, but the solemnity and indifference on the face of Prince Yun Jing did not diminish in the slightest; on the contrary, there was a hint of excitement in his eyes.

This is his signature act, how could he possibly give it up so easily?

Then he called out again, "Yu Chenglong, what are you standing there for?"

"First, cut off his head for me."

"Then go find his entire family."

Chen Xiong was terrified and cried out in despair, "Your Highness, no, no! This humble general is the garrison commander of Wusheng Pass! A great battle is imminent, and the imperial army is about to attack. To kill a general on the battlefield is a cardinal sin in military strategy!"

"Your Highness, if you spare my life, I will fight to the death to defend Wusheng Pass, and live or die with it!"

Chen Xiong spoke with great force, after all, this was originally his idea: to take advantage of the geographical advantage of Wusheng Pass and make Ren Tianye suffer a crushing defeat.

Therefore, the blood in my chest surged.

Can……

Prince Xiao Che of Yunjing wasn't buying it at all, and asked directly, "What battle is imminent?"

"Is the imminent outbreak of a major war such a significant event?"

"In our Yunjing, what's the most important thing? Love is the most important thing!"

"This is the love I've been searching for, and you've ruined it! You think you can escape? Dream on!"

"Yu Chenglong, are you deaf?"

Yu Chenglong dared not delay any longer. He agreed, and the knife in his hand was already drawn. In an instant, it flashed out like a cold light, and a head fell to the ground with a thud.

Chen Xiong, the garrison commander of Wusheng Pass and the Lieutenant General of Yunjing, was killed and his men perished!

Surprisingly, after a slight pause, most of the soldiers following Chen Xiong showed expressions of joy.

"General, is he dead?"

"The general is dead, does that mean our mission is over?"

"Old Li died falling off a cliff while carrying out the task assigned by the general—collecting night dew to present to his lover far away. If Old Li had been able to hold on until today, he wouldn't have had to die!"

"Now that the general is dead, will our bi-weekly tabloid interviews stop?"

……

Apart from Chen Xiong's personal guards, the remaining soldiers were all discussing it excitedly.

After all, when Chen Xiong was around, they suffered a lot in order to respond to Yun Jing's call for love to be paramount.

Before each month's military pay is issued, soldiers must undergo a love inquiry by Chen Xiong's confidants. If they are deemed not to be considerate enough to their lovers or to have perfunctory love letters, their pay will be withheld.

They also had to follow Chen Xiong's requirements and write love letters to their lovers every ten days. These letters had to be checked, and if the content wasn't beautiful or moving enough, they had to rewrite them. But how could these roughnecks possibly write them well?

Then they'll get whipped, or their pay will be docked.

Not to mention, the various bizarre and outrageous rules about dating made them suffer terribly.

Therefore, Chen Xiong's death may not necessarily be a bad thing for most of them.

But this joy didn't last long before the voice of Xiao Che, the Prince of Yunjing, rang out.

That solemn and cold voice, with its overwhelming aura and intense pressure, said: "Chen Xiong is dead now, but the crimes he committed cannot be let off so easily."

"I will exterminate his entire clan."

"And the suffering he has caused me cannot be left to pass so easily."

"I hereby order you to immediately drop everything you are holding and line up to apologize to my woman."

"Remember, everyone has to apologize!"

"If anyone's attitude is not sincere, or their posture is not respectful enough, then don't blame me for being impolite."

Upon hearing this, all the soldiers were stunned.

Just when we thought good days were coming after Chen Xiong's departure, the Prince of Yun Jing arrived, and the orders he issued were even more outrageous than Chen Xiong's.

Should I apologize to a woman?

At a time like this?

No, isn't the imperial army about to open the gates?

All the soldiers were unwilling, but no one dared to defy Prince Xiao Che of Yunjing. They had no choice but to force themselves to cheer up and follow Xiao Che's orders to find Lu Shuang and apologize to her!

how...

The army searched for several days but could not find Lu Shuang.

Lu Shuang, hidden in the mountains and forests, was like a fish in the ocean, not even causing a ripple. No matter how much Xiao Che tried to find her, he could not find a trace of her.

Just as Xiao Che was jumping up and down in anger and cursing, a messenger came to report.

"Report, Your Highness, Ren Tianye's army is less than twenty miles away."

"Wow, that was fast!" Xiao Che didn't seem afraid at all; instead, he was quite excited. He said, "Perfect. I've long heard of Ren Tianye's mission. He said that he was invincible in the Northern Frontier and had subdued nearly 200,000 troops in less than a month. He's quite a talent."

"Hmph, I'd like to have a go at him."

"Look at his limited abilities; how long can he hold out against me?"

Xiao Che waved his hand and ordered, "Generals, follow me to the pass and form ranks. This time, we will fight Ren Tianye to the death!"

Meanwhile, Ren Tianye set up camp.

After the central army took up their tents, all the generals arrived.

Ren Tianye did not rashly order an attack, but instead waited for news from Zhang Shi: "Where is Zhang Shi? How is he doing?"

News about Zhang Shi was reported almost immediately, so the personal guards knew the same information as Ren Tianye. They said, "Lord Duke, it's still yesterday's news. General Zhang Shi has already circled around, and it will still take some time before he can attack Wusheng Pass from the rear."

Ren Tianye nodded.

With Zhang Shi's ambush force present, he felt much more confident. But now that they were here, he should send a small force to probe their strength.

"Wang Ming!"

"Your subordinate is here!"

"Do you dare to be in the first team?"

"Your subordinate obeys."

"Alright, I hereby order you to take five thousand men to Wusheng Pass. Remember, you can provoke them, but do not start a war lightly."

Wang Ming immediately understood that this was to test the strength of Wusheng Pass, and replied, "Yes, Your Excellency."

Immediately, Wang Ming mustered five thousand soldiers and marched straight to Wusheng Pass. It didn't take long for Wang Ming to see Wusheng Pass. Wusheng Pass was built at the exit of a canyon between two mountains, with walls several meters high that stretched to the mountain ridges on both sides.

The pass, taking advantage of the mountain's terrain, is truly a formidable fortress.

Its terrain is not much different from that of Yunji City.

"If the soldiers at Wusheng Pass were to remain hidden inside the pass, even without any preparation, without things like radium stones and rolling logs, it would be extremely difficult for us to take them down!"

As Wang Ming analyzed the situation, a sense of unease crept into his heart.

However, when he got close to Wusheng Pass, Wang Ming was stunned.

Why have all the troops from Wusheng Pass left the city?

They've even formed ranks?

No, why are they leaving the city?

Are we to be sitting ducks?
