Empress: Your Majesty, please respect yourself, I don't want to be promoted

His expression quickly returned to its former coldness, and the strange emotional fluctuations in his words completely disappeared.

"Now the various units of the Cang Ling Army are ready to go to war at any time. With the coordination and help of the Queen Mother, the provisions, spiritual stones, spells and other military supplies are almost ready. In addition, you have arranged secret chess pieces in the garrisons in various places. , now the time is ripe to send troops."

She looked at the Empress Dowager Zhao calmly and said slowly: "On the other hand, the pseudo-emperor stole power at the beginning and had an unstable foundation. There were many people who were dissatisfied in various places. However, His Highness the King of Qin has always had a reputation far and wide, and everyone expected him to return. As long as His Highness the King of Qin ascends the throne, Huh, all the people in the world will gather together and follow you to the death."

"The destiny lies with King Qin. Even if the Holy King is born, he will never be able to defy this established destiny."

Having said this, she suddenly turned her head and looked at the little boy sitting next to the Queen Mother. As soon as she heard what she said, she immediately raised her head, showing a rebellious look at a young age.

"Therefore, Wei Chen believes that it is time to spread the word and take back the world for His Highness King Qin."

Upon hearing this, the Queen Mother immediately narrowed her eyes.

She stretched out her hand and gently placed it on the jade dining table, tapping her fingers on it regularly. Her face was full of thoughts, as if she was seriously considering Gu Simiao's words.

After Zhao Feifan heard Gu Simiao's clear statement, he couldn't help but light up with joy and said with great excitement: "Queen Mother, my nephew thinks Miao'er's words are reasonable. For the sake of the country, Queen Mother, you not only helped that woman stabilize the government. , worked hard on state affairs every day, but it’s just that she didn’t want to repay her, but she was ungrateful, shamelessly colluded with the Holy King Cangming, and relied on external forces to drive you and all the loyal ministers to death. Such an act will definitely be unpopular. "

"His Royal Highness the King of Qin is the direct prince of the late Emperor and the Queen Mother. As long as His Highness the King of Qin stands up and orders the world, the people from all over the country will definitely help. Miao'er and people from all over the country who understand the righteousness will bravely raise their troops and they will be able to break through the barriers and enter. The momentum will be overwhelming. Take the imperial capital and reorganize the world!"

Upon hearing this, King Qin's chin suddenly lifted a little higher, his little face full of pride.

"Mother, I think General Gu and his wife are right. Let's send troops immediately."

At this banquet, Xia Houyan and other die-hard supporters of the Queen Mother almost gathered together. Seeing that the Queen Mother was thinking, and Gu Simiao, a core figure, made it clear that she would send troops to counterattack, some people immediately became excited.

Although they were safe for the time being, they didn't want to stay in Huangzhou, a ghost place that was ravaged by blizzards all day long.

Compared with Luo Jing's colorful world, this place is simply hell.

How could they possibly bear it?

They wished they could immediately send troops to fight back to Luojing and go to the flower boat on the bank of Luoshui River to meet the beautiful lady.

It's just that their weight is too light. Although they are qualified to sit at the table, they are not qualified to take the initiative to speak.

However, Xia Houyan and other confidants who were qualified to express their opinions were just like the Empress Dowager Zhao, frowning in deep thought, raising their heads from time to time and looking at Gu Simiao's face without any trace.

After a while, Queen Mother Zhao relaxed her brows and withdrew her imperceptible gaze from Gu Simiao's face.

"Since Miao'er joined the army, he has led the Cang Ling Army to defeat the foreign cavalry many times, severely inflicted heavy losses on the Rouran and other tribes, and has repeatedly made great contributions to the court. He is an undisputed peerless general. In military affairs, Miao'er's His opinions and judgments must be extremely accurate.”

She smiled slightly and took back her hand, looking like she had great trust in Gu Simiao.

"Since Miao'er said so, sending troops now is definitely the best time to take back the world."

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions suddenly changed.

Zhao Feifan looked happy and responded quickly: "The Queen Mother is wise!"

After a while, others also bowed their hands to the Queen Mother: "The Queen Mother is wise!"

The matter of sending troops was just decided.

Then the Queen Mother said: "I am not good at military affairs, so I will not do anything in front of Miao'er. How Miao'er plans to act, what needs she needs, and how she needs my support, there is no need to worry, just tell me directly."

After a pause, she turned to look at Zhao Feifan, showed a kind smile, and said gently: "You are an extraordinary fiancée, and the future mistress of my natal family. As the saying goes, one family does not speak the same language, wonderful. Your son should be treated as extraordinary in front of me, so don’t have too many worries. I have always been lenient to my son, nephew, and close relatives, and I have never been harsh."

Hearing this, Zhao Feifan couldn't help but smile proudly.

For a beauty as talented and beautiful as Gu Simiao, just being able to win her heart and get engaged to her would be enough to make one proud for a lifetime.

This is something only a proud man like him can do.

Although I have been rejected many times, as long as the result is good, it will be fine.

Gu Simiao was not only willing to marry him, but in order to be worthy of his status, she actually left Luojing and traveled thousands of miles to Huangzhou to join the army. She gradually became one of the eight pillar countries with her strong strength and outstanding achievements.

When the Queen Mother Zhao lost power and her group was chased by the Cangming Army, she accepted them without hesitation, provided them with a place to live, and then ran around for the orthodoxy of King Qin...

With such deep love and righteousness, how could he not be proud of her?

If you get a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for...

The only pity is that this beauty is too rigid. Before the wedding day, she can't do anything beyond her, and she won't even touch her.

No amount of persuasion or even pleading was of any use.

As for using some... um... that kind of means, it's not that he hasn't thought about it, but considering her strength at the time when she was already in the Cave Void Realm, he just couldn't bear to be ruthless.

Hmm... In short, I simply don't want to make her sad.

Gu Simiao couldn't read minds, so she naturally didn't know what her fiancé was thinking.

Feeling the Queen Mother's obvious closeness, her eyes swayed slightly and she looked slightly moved.

"Well, Miao'er knows."

As these words fell, the dinner quickly became enjoyable.

After the dinner, everyone did not leave. Instead, after removing the drinks, they began to discuss raising troops to prepare for the upcoming war.

After all, counterattacking the imperial court with the protection of the Holy Realm is a big deal.

It is impossible to just slap the forehead and decide on various arrangements related to it.

It wasn't until the moon and stars became sparse and the thick night covered the white land that Tianxin Villa gradually returned to peace.

"Miao'er, I'll take you back."

In front of the gate of Tianxin Villa, Zhao Feifan rubbed his hands and said to Gu Simiao.

With that said, he prepared to ask the guards to prepare their horses.

However, Gu Simiao shook her head.

"No, I can just go back by myself."

After saying that, without waiting for Zhao Feifan to speak again, she turned directly onto the horse and clamped the horse's belly tightly.

Hiss~

The snow-white unicorn horse suddenly raised its front hooves high, and the moment it fell heavily, it hit the ground with a huge force. With the strong rebound force, the tall body jumped directly several feet, and in a few breaths, it Disappeared in the endless wind and snow.

Zhao Feifan was left alone, feeling lost.

at the same time.

On the main floor of Tianxin Villa, the Queen Mother looked at Gu Simiao's retreating figure with an expressionless face, her hands behind her hands.

click...

Following the sound of crisp footsteps, Xia Houyan walked over slowly and bowed to her.

"The Queen Mother."

"Ah."

Queen Mother Zhao nodded slightly.

"Here it is."

Xia Houyan came closer and looked in the direction where Queen Mother Zhao was looking, and soon noticed the white figure speeding towards the city lord's palace.

The next second, he narrowed his eyes inexplicably.

"Your Majesty, General Gu...do you really trust her completely?"

Hearing this, the corners of Queen Mother Zhao's mouth slightly raised, revealing a meaningful smile.

"Of course."

She slowly reached out her hand and gently pushed aside the white snow on the railing in front of her.

"Miao'er is my nephew-in-law, and she is a member of my family. I have always trusted my family and never doubted them."

The moment the words fell, Xia Houyan's eyes moved slightly as if he felt something in his heart.

"I see."

He nodded with a clear face, then smiled and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Wei Chen is too worried."

"It's not a bad thing to be preoccupied."

Empress Dowager Zhao leaned her upper body slightly, resting her hands on the railing, looking at the increasingly intense wind and snow in the distance, and said calmly:

"It's a real bad thing that a mediocre person like Lu Chen, who is as mindless as Lu Chen, gains trust because of the emotional actions of those in power, and is lucky enough to be promoted to an important minister who can influence the government."

King Qin Jiang Chengyun on the side raised his head in confusion and looked at his mother.

"Mother, what are you talking about?"

Queen Mother Zhao shook her head slightly.

"It's nothing."

Xia Houyan said: "Empress Dowager, according to reports from spies, the Cangming Army has been moving frequently in recent times. Heavy troops have been deployed in the Huguan, Suzhou, and Tongguan areas. The mouth of the Luo River has been completely blocked, making it impassable for boats and ships. The land passes have also been blocked. Completely sealed off, horses are not allowed to cross the border, and the pseudo-emperor seems to have activated a forbidden spirit magic circle to isolate long-distance communication..."

Queen Mother Zhao smiled coldly: "You are moving very quickly. Is there any news about the Holy King Cangming?"

"The last news came that..."

Xia Houyan said in a deep voice: "The Holy King Cangming has not appeared in the court for many days, and he is probably no longer in Luojing."

"Is it?"

Queen Mother Zhao's eyes narrowed slightly.

"It seems that we don't have much time left."

Xia Houyan nodded silently.

When he was in Luojing, the scene when hundreds of thousands of forbidden troops were defeated by the black armor army led by the arrogant Holy King Cangming came to mind again.

The almost invincible feeling loomed in my heart, bringing an unforgettable fear.

The tall body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Queen Mother Zhao asked again: "How is the contact with our people over at Can Ling Army?"

When talking about this topic, Xia Houyan smiled inexplicably.

"all the best."

"Ha ha…"

Queen Mother Zhao smiled.

He smiled heartily, as if the bad luck and depression during this period had been swept away.
