The old man looked at the troubled Zhennan army and said hurriedly: "Your Highness, you have done your best! It's not your fault, if you do, it's the faint-hearted monarch of Emperor Hongyuan. If he hadn't demoted you to remote Nanyue, The enemy did not dare to attack."

A woman next to him said, "Yes, if the emperor hadn't condoned traitors and framed loyal ministers, we wouldn't have lost so much. So all this was caused by Emperor Hongyuan, and he is the culprit."

Others said angrily: "And this culprit actually left us, took his prince and grandson, and hid with a bunch of traitors. Is he worthy of being our emperor?"

"He doesn't deserve it at all. In my opinion, His Royal Highness Li King is worthy." The old man said loudly.

Chu Xuanchen hurriedly said: "Everyone, don't talk nonsense."

The old man said indignantly: "His Royal Highness Li, what nonsense is this nonsense? You were originally the only direct son of the late emperor, the only heir, and it was Emperor Hongyuan who murdered the late emperor and took away the throne that originally belonged to you. It's yours, what can't you say?"

"Yes! This old thief, Emperor Hongyuan, should return the throne to His Highness."

"Now that the old thief has run away, he is no longer worthy of being an emperor or leading the people of Chu State. And His Royal Highness Li King has fought and died for the Chu State for many years. Thanks to him, our Chu State has not been invaded by foreign enemies. He is of course the worthy heir to the emperor."

"Not only that, His Royal Highness Li Wang and Li Wang Concubine are also kind and generous, and they care about the world. We all support His Royal Highness Li Wang as the emperor, and we only recognize His Royal Highness Li Wang!"

"Yes, we only recognize His Royal Highness Li King, and no one except His Royal Highness!"

"I don't recognize anyone except Your Highness!"

As the people spoke, they clenched their fists and raised their hands, and they were all excited.

They don't care who the current emperor is, they only know that Emperor Hongyuan betrayed them, and they only know that it was His Royal Highness King Li who saved their lives at a time of crisis.

For them, whoever saved their lives was their reborn parents, and of course they would support Chu Xuanchen.

Seeing everyone supporting him so much, Chu Xuanchen was already in tears.

He looked at Yun Ruoyue, and the two looked at each other with relief.

It turns out that the people really have steelyards in their hearts, and they all know how you treat them.

He looked at everyone and solemnly promised: "Familiars, people, thank you for your support. Don't worry, this king assures you that one day when this king is here, this king will definitely protect you and will never let you Others will bully you again. From now on, I will also try my best to let everyone live a good life, so that everyone can eat and wear warmly, and don’t have to live a life of wandering and worrying.”

"Okay, thank you, Your Highness." The people were greatly encouraged when they heard these words.

Although they have suffered a lot, they are full of hope at this moment.

Initially, they were desperate when the coalition came in and began to slaughter them.

Unexpectedly, in just two short days, His Royal Highness Li Wang came in and beat the coalition forces away, winning the victory.

They didn't expect Li Wang to be so powerful.

This time, their lives finally have hope, and finally they don't have to worry anymore.

After talking to the people, Chu Xuanchen was afraid that Feng Lingtian would make a comeback, so he sent the 30,000 Zhennan Army to be stationed in Yizhou City.

At the same time, he also asked the people and soldiers to collect the bodies of the slaughtered Chu people, and then bury them properly.

Then, he asked the soldiers to continue making firearms for emergencies.

In the end, he took the remaining 20,000 Zhennan Army and quickly rushed to Shengjing City.

Because Shengjing City is in a mess right now, he has to quickly clean up those messes!

In this way, Chu Xuanchen and Yun Ruoyue took the Zhennan Army and went straight to Shengjing City.

In the middle of the night, their team finally arrived in Shengjing City, in front of the city gate of Shengjing City.

At this time, the lights in front of the city gate had already been turned off, and it was pitch black all around, so dark that you couldn't see your fingers when you stretched out your hands.

When Chu Xuanchen's team stepped forward with torches, they saw that there was no defender at the gate of Shengjing City, and they looked very desolate.

Seeing this, everyone was puzzled.

Knowing that the enemy is about to come in, why is there no defender at the gate of this city?

Does he not want to resist?

Just as everyone was stunned, a shrinking and respectful voice suddenly came from the tower, "Welcome Prince Lingtian, welcome the coalition army."

Hearing this, Chu Xuanchen and Yun Ruoyue looked at each other, both of them were puzzled.

The others looked up at the city tower in confusion, only to see a guard general with his head bowed and trembling all over standing there.

At this moment, the general held a piece of paper in his hand.

He didn't look up, so he didn't realize that the people underneath were not the coalition troops, but Chu Xuanchen and the others.

Chu Xuanchen recognized at a glance that this was Wang Guang, the general guarding the west gate of Shengjing City, who stopped him from going to Xueyue Kingdom last time.

Just when everyone was stunned, Wang Guang shivered again and said: "Prince Lingtian, this minister... This minister is Wang Guang, the general of the Chu State defending the city, and this minister would like to represent all the adults in our country, as well as the people of Shengjing City. , I especially handed down a letter to Prince Lingtian. Please rest assured, Prince, we will open the city gate for the prince later, just... I just hope that after the prince enters the city, don't slaughter the people of our Chu country, our Chu country's people Officials and commoners must be loyal to the prince..."
