Chapter 31: Which girl doesn't have spring in her heart? The Empress's disappointment
The empress had complicated emotions towards Jiang Xuan.
Just as Xu Shu said before.
She had admired Jiang Xuan in those days and had secretly peeked at him many times during palace banquets.
after all.
What girl doesn't have a child?
What woman in the world doesn't want her husband to be a man of great stature?
A man like no other.
And Jiang Xuan at that time just happened to satisfy her fantasy of her future husband.
So, if she really faced that situation.
After escaping from Chang'an with serious injuries, she would choose to go to the northern border. This was the only choice.
Recalling the scene when she secretly glanced at Jiang Xuan when she was a young girl, a hint of shame appeared in the empress's narrow eyes, but it only lasted for a moment.
Those eyes turned cold again.
Continue looking at the light curtain.
[After the Dali Dynasty went back on its word, only a hundred thousand elite soldiers were left under your command. You were furious and began to think of retreating to Shu.]
[The terrain of Shu is complex, the roads are rugged, and it is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If you can firmly occupy Shu, you will have enough time to recuperate and make plans.]
[However, just as you were about to withdraw]
[The unwilling King of Jin regrouped and fought back again]
[After you learned about it, you went to meet King Jin in person]
[You two, who have not seen each other for many years, are drinking happily in the tent, with no grudges in your hearts]
【next day】
[You reached a cooperation with the King of Jin. You held Tai Shi Yue back in Lin'an, while the King of Jin led his army northward.]
[Prince Jin's return caught Empress Dowager Xiao off guard]
[After you tried your best to hold Tai Shiyue back, the King of Jin had no more obstacles and conquered cities along the way. In just ten days, he reached Ding'an Prefecture and pointed his sword at Chang'an]
[Faced with the aggressive King of Jin, Queen Mother Xiao made a prompt decision to transfer Tai Shi Yue back. You took advantage of the situation to seize Lin'an and merged with the King of Jin.]
[That night, you and King Jin got drunk]
[The next day, you were assassinated]
[An assassin at the Vajra Realm sneaked into the military camp and almost killed you. While you were guessing whether the assassin was sent by the King of Jin or the Queen Mother Xiao, the King of Jin was also assassinated and almost died.]
[You know, Empress Dowager Xiao can’t sit still anymore]
[Next, Empress Dowager Xiao sent out assassins one after another. The assassins became stronger and stronger, from the Vajra Realm at the beginning, to the Mysterious Finger Realm later, and finally there was even a Celestial Realm assassin.]
[Fortunately, you survived]
[The successive assassinations made you unable to sit still, so you immediately went to find King Jin. After discussing with King Jin, you decided to attack Ding'an Prefecture tomorrow.]
[At the same time, the Dali Dynasty was ambitious, and 500,000 elite troops left Chengwu Pass and headed south, capturing cities and territories, intending to occupy the entire southwest.]
[The first year of Shengwu]
【Mid-Spring】
[You and the King of Jin begin to attack Ding'an Prefecture and fight Taishi Yue repeatedly]
[In the middle of the month, Ding'an Prefecture was captured]
[At the same time, the Wei Dynasty suddenly launched an attack and sent more than 400,000 troops to attack Xilin Pass]
[King Li, who was guarding Xilin Pass, was furious and immediately led his army to fight against the Wei Dynasty. He was defeated and Xilin Pass was breached, and the Wei army marched straight in.]
[In the same month, when the King of Jin rebelled and Lingnan was left empty, Nanyue attacked and easily occupied the entire Lingnan, burning, killing and looting.]
"very good."
"In just half a month, the Northwest, Western Xinjiang, and Lingnan were all lost."
The empress was extremely furious when she saw this scene.
His eyes were filled with anger.
She could guess without even looking that when Dali, Dawei, and Nanyue entered the country one after another.
What will happen next.
I'm afraid it won't take a month.
South of Lingjiang River and west of Gu'an, nearly half of the Dawu Dynasty's territory would fall.
"My good uncles."
"Is this what you wanted to see?"
"Ah"
The empress looked at the scene on the screen, where the Great Wu Dynasty was falling apart and the building was about to collapse, and laughed in anger: "They rebelled against me, but they lost their own country. Damn it, these traitors, all deserve to die." [Mid-spring, late spring]
[You and the King of Jin began to attack Chang'an. When you were about to take Chang'an, an accident happened]
[A large number of White Lotus followers emerged from Ding'an Prefecture, gathered into an army, and attacked you from the rear. You and the King of Jin were caught off guard and were trapped from the front and back. You were defeated in an instant. The defeat was like a landslide, and the King of Jin died in the chaos.]
[And you, luckily survived]
[But you were captured, and you were brought before Empress Dowager Xiao, and knelt in the Golden Throne Hall]
[The first year of Shengwu]
【Early summer】
[You became Empress Xiao's puppet, ascended the throne and proclaimed yourself emperor, and changed the year to Tianyuan]
【Tianyuan Year】
[Under the instruction of Empress Dowager Xiao, you promoted many of her subordinates, and ordered the other vassal kings to immediately dispatch troops to attack the armies of Dawei, Dali, and Nanyue to recover the lost territory.]
[However, I am not waiting for your imperial decree]
【you are dead】
[He was stabbed to death, his death was tragic]
【Aged 56】
[End of simulation]
[Reward for this simulation: Liuxian Lihuo Armor (after wearing it, it can withstand the full force attack of a Tianren realm warrior)]
[The next simulation can be carried out after three days]
[The next simulation will add the life story of the King of Qin]
"died?"
The empress saw King Zhou die like this.
His brows were tightly knitted together, and his narrow eyes were full of anger at his lack of fighting spirit. He said angrily, "What a waste! He died just like that."
Things have come to this point.
The empress would not think that the chaos of the Dawu Dynasty could be quelled.
After all, there are other vassal kings.
Except for that loser at Xilinguan, they are not simple people.
It is absolutely impossible to obey the orders of King Zhou.
Not to mention that King Zhou has now become a puppet of Empress Dowager Xiao.
and.
In this simulation, I have not died and there is still a possibility.
Right in the north.
She didn't think that she could remain indifferent after seeing the Dawu Dynasty fall into such a situation.
And there is Empress Dowager Xiao.
What is her identity?
Why did the White Lotus Sect members appear in large numbers when Chang'an was about to be captured?
What is the relationship between Empress Dowager Xiao and the White Lotus Sect?
There was also the mastermind behind the assassination of King Zhou.
Who could it be?
Recalling the death of King Zhou, the empress's pupils shrank slightly.
He murmured in a low voice: "Whether it was the King of Jin, the First Prince, or the King of Zhou, their deaths were exactly the same. In other words, the assassin who attacked in the three simulations was the same person."
"Damn it."
Think of this simulation.
It ended in such an unclear manner. The empress cursed inwardly, feeling helpless.
This simulation is full of doubts.
Under such a situation, the other princes did not react at all.
This was really unexpected for the empress.
There was also no mention of the matter of Xingqing Prefecture, which showed that King Zhou was not concerned about it.
Or has this matter never been discovered?
And why didn't Queen Dowager Xiao choose to sit on the throne herself, but instead supported King Zhou to ascend the throne?
and also
Why was this simulation done after King Zhou was captured and brought before Queen Mother Xiao?
It becomes extraordinarily simple.
There was no detail at all, as if King Zhou had lost his own ideas and had completely become a puppet.
