“Your Highness, why don’t we agree to the emperor’s suggestion?” one of the officials asked. “We’ll first sign a truce agreement, and then all the forces of each country will attack the Wei Kingdom. The four countries will send their troops to the Wei Kingdom together, and whoever snatches it will be the one who gets it.”

This time, the Third was not wasn’t angry. He was thinking about the feasibility of this matter.

He did not agree the last time because he wanted to wait and see. But now, he could not wait and see anymore. If he continued to wait and see, when Wei Kingdom conquered the Dongyue Kingdom, it would be gone.

“Then write a letter to all the countries,” the Third Prince said, “invite all the countries to enjoy the delicious food of the Wei Kingdom!”

It was the 25th day of the 12th lunar month, five days away from New Years Eve. At this time, the Capital should be full of joy and laughter, but on this day, the whole capital was shrouded in haze.

Since the morning, people from all over the world had come to report the news one after another, and all of them were bad news.

These pieces of information formed a huge conspiracy, which was that the surrounding four countries had joined forces to attack the Wei Kingdom.

The other countries were all attacking each other, so it was difficult to gather their forces to deal with one country. However, if they joined forces, it would be devastating for the Wei Kingdom.

Fortunately, the Wei Kingdom had already stored up food and weapons, which was a blessing in the midst of misfortune. Otherwise, if it were still the same as two years ago, it could be said that they had no power to resist.

What the Wei Kingdom lacked now was not money or food, but people.

Although the Wei Kingdom had a lot of soldiers, and each of them was good at fighting, it was impossible for them to fight one against a hundred. The other countries had joined forces to attack the Wei Kingdom, and they did not know how many troops they had. If they did not send reinforcements as soon as possible, they were afraid that they would be in danger.

Originally, the Emperor had ordered Ming Zhiyan to prepare the troops and wait for New Year’s Eve to bid farewell to the soldiers who were about to go to war. However, an accident suddenly occurred, and they had to leave early.

The city gate tower was still there, and the Army was lined up on the ground. The Emperor shouted, “Soldiers! The accident happened too quickly, so I’ll make it short. I hope that all the soldiers can protect themselves! Protect Great

Wei! I will wait for your return! I’ll reward you according to your contributions! Don’t forget, the thousands of people of Great Wei are looking forward to your safety. Your parents and wives are also waiting for your return! You are all heroes of the Great Wei, and we look forward to your safe return!”

The soldiers’ blood boiled when they heard this, and they replied loudly, “Good! Protect Great Wei! Protect your family! Return safely!”

When Jian Qingqing arrived, they had already started shouting slogans.

She hurriedly jumped off the horse and rushed up the city Tower without even having time to catch her breath. She was now beside the Emperor. Just as they were about to turn and leave, she shouted, “Ming Zhiyan! Catch!”

As she spoke, she threw the thing in her hand down.

Hearing that, Ming Zhiyan subconsciously grabbed it and a piece of jade appeared in his hand. He looked deeply at the girl he loved and said five words silently.

Jian Qingqing understood that he was saying: Wait for me to come back.

She nodded frantically, but she was afraid that the man could not see it clearly, so she said loudly, “I’ll wait for you to come back..”historical

The man was finally satisfied and led the army forward valiantly..
