out to protest, but when he met his father's threatening gaze, he swallowed his words.At this point, he reluctantly nodded. "Fine, Mother, you can call out whatever you like, but let's get on our way...Mo Yunjing wasn't at all modest at the moment, he simply hummed in affirmation, "Don't worry, it will definitely go smoothly."
He doesn't seem confident in his own plan.
But he was very clear about the specific situation of the 200,000 troops in the Queen's hands.
The soldiers that the Empress of Xiliang possessed were, in truth, not entirely loyal.
The tens of thousands of soldiers who originally belonged to Lady Xi Zi and the soldiers under the Empress's command had not yet been integrated.
The untested soldiers lacked cohesion and coordination.
Moreover, the soldiers cultivated by Xi Zi and Pan Er do not have high trust in the empress.
At such a time, as long as you plan carefully, there is a high probability of persuading those tens of thousands of soldiers who were originally under Xi Zi and Pan'er's command.
An Xuetang, seeing his confidence, felt inexplicably more at ease.
……
The palace of the Western Liang Kingdom.
The Queen lay in bed at this time, with several imperial physicians waiting by her side.
The Queen's hand gently rested on her abdomen, caressing it softly up and down, a smile of utmost contentment gracing her lips.
After the imperial physician had finished giving his instructions to the palace maids, she spoke, “From today onwards, all of you will remain in the palace. Do not leave.”
As soon as these words left his lips, the several imperial physicians standing by the bed immediately bowed and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Mòyúnjǐng's guess was right, the female emperor of Xiliang Kingdom is indeed pregnant with six children.
Though the child came as a complete surprise, it filled the queen with overwhelming joy.
She had never expected, at her age, to be able to get pregnant.
In her eyes, this was a timely blessing from heaven.
Heaven must have seen that she didn't want to pass the throne to Xizi Ke'er, so at this critical moment, it sent an angel to her.
With a child in her womb now, Xizi's fate - whether she lives or dies - matters little to Xizhi. As for Xizicai, she can forget about ever obtaining the throne of Xiliang.
The Queen also carefully calculated that when she gave birth to this child and raised him as an adult.
By the time this child was capable of handling important matters, she had also reached an age where it was time for her to step down.
By then, there wouldn't be situations like Xi Zi Panger and Xi Zi Keer vying for the throne as they are now.
So, this child is truly a gift from heaven.
The moment she learned she was pregnant, she immediately summoned all the generals and ordered them to lead their troops to besiege Xizi Ke'er and her group right away.
In all her years as queen, no one had ever dared to be so insolent in her presence, to threaten her like that.
Xi Zi Ke Er is the only one.
So, she could never possibly let Xi Zi Ke'er become the crown prince.
Since she has already let someone lay a hand on Xizi Ke'er, then she cannot allow the child in her womb to have any mishaps.
That's why she ordered these imperial physicians to be on standby at all times and remain in the palace.
She also knew that having a child at her age would be somewhat dangerous.
Whether for her own life or for the child in her womb, she had to make sure everything was foolproof.
At this moment, a eunuch outside the sleeping quarters suddenly called out, "Your Majesty, General Li has urgent matters to report to you immediately."
"!!"
Upon hearing this, the queen's face instantly darkened, and the smile vanished from her lips.
She has already made it clear, for non-essential matters, please don't bother her these days as she needs to rest and take care of the pregnancy.
After a moment of silence, the queen said in a cold voice, "Let him in."
Soon, General Li arrived before the Empress.
At this time, the Empress had also sat up. Her sinister eyes fell upon General Li.
Before Li General could pay his respects, she impatiently waved him off and, in a cold voice, blurted out, "Skip the formalities. Just tell me, what's so important that you had to come to court today"
General Li is extremely grave at this moment. He knelt on one knee and bowed, "Your Majesty, something terrible has happened. My humble self just received the latest news. Prince Ca'er has joined hands with the Princess Consort of Beijang and others, preparing to launch a full-scale attack. They are currently marching towards the capital.
"What!"
Upon hearing this news suddenly, the queen sitting on the bed edge instantly sprang up.
Her face was full of disbelief, she stared straight at General Li, gritting her teeth. “You’re saying that Xizi Ke'er is coming to the capital How did they come Didn't those tens of thousands of soldiers under Pander already set off first”
How could they possibly still have a chance Those tens of thousands of soldiers are such trash, unable to hold back Xizi Ke'er's mere ninety thousand troops
In the Queen's eyes, despite having so many soldiers at her disposal, Xizi Ke'er remained powerless. No matter how many capable individuals surrounded her, she couldn't change the fact that she only had over ninety thousand soldiers.
Xizi P'an-er's several tens of thousands of troops have already been incorporated into her command. With Xizi P'an-er's troops leading the charge, she could at least inflict half the losses on Xizi Ke'er's forces.
By that time, if her hundred thousand troops arrived, they could completely annihilate Xizi Ke'er's army.
But now he told her that Xizi Ke'er’s people were on their way to the capital
How could this be possible
Xi Zi Pan'er doesn't believe that those tens of thousands of soldiers under her command could possibly stop Xi Zi Ke'er and the others.
Not only was the Queen astonished by this message, but General Li, upon hearing it, was also incredibly surprised.
But he was certain that the information he received was accurate.
"Your Majesty, the information I received is indeed true. With the help of the Princess Consort of Beijang and others, I don't know what kind of sorcery she used, but Prince Ca'er's several tens of thousands of soldiers have greatly increased in morale."
They seem utterly fearless of your Majesty's decree, and are now preparing to clash head-on with Princess Pander’s tens of thousands of soldiers.
The Empress glared and suddenly let out a peal of laughter, "Hard against hard I want to see just what that Xi Zi can bring to bear. She's just a Princess from the Northern Border; I truly don't believe she can stir up any real trouble."
The Queen wasn't very convinced that Xi Zi Ke Er could turn the tide.
But General Li, still wore a grave expression. After the Empress finished speaking, he knelt on the ground, hesitated for a moment, and finally, risking his life, reminded her:
"Your Majesty, the Northern Border Princess and her companions might not be capable of causing much trouble on their own. But Your Majesty should not forget that the Northern Border Princess has the backing of the King of the North Border and the Xun Tang Valley."
"So what"
At this moment, the Queen did not pay any attention to the Northern Border King or the Xintang Valley.
General Li twitched his lips, knowing the Empress was underestimating her opponent.
But once you become complacent at this juncture, you will surely regret it.
So even though she knew what was coming next, the queen didn't want to hear it.
What he uttered could very well lead to his execution.
But for the sake of all the people in the entire city, so that we won't see the whole Xiliang kingdom engulfed in smoke and fire.
He still gritted his teeth and continued to remind him, "Your Majesty, the Princess of Beijiang is not capable, but those behind her in Xuntang Valley have weapons that can destroy the Great Yue Kingdom overnight."utside the door blocked those kids, "You can't go in, this is not a place you can come."The eleven-faced child was expressionless, with a heavy menacing aura. Normally, most children would be scared...
