Extra Chapter 1
"Report!"...
Ouyang Zhenyu sat on the throne in the Golden Palace, his hand on his forehead, eyes closed, looking helpless. He urged the general who came to report below, "Speak quickly!"
The fierce general kneeling below raised his hands above his head in a fist salute and bowed his head as he reported, "Your Majesty, those barbarians have already breached our sixth town. If this continues..."
Upon hearing about the lost towns, Ouyang Zhenyu opened his eyes in a fit of rage and slammed his fist on the armrest of the dragon throne.
"Hmph, does our Haoyue Kingdom have no other general to protect the country besides Ouyang Yuqing?"
After Ouyang Zhenyu was furious, he looked at the civil and military officials below him.
Upon hearing Ouyang Zhenyu's question, the civil and military officials at the head of the Golden Palace all shrank back.
They were all terrified, fearing that His Majesty might fly into a rage and come up with some crazy scheme, perhaps even sending them to the battlefield.
The entire Golden Palace fell silent after Ouyang Zhenyu's question.
Now, even a pin dropping on the ground would make a loud noise.
When Ouyang Zhenyu saw the group of good-for-nothings below him, he really wanted to slit their throats one by one.
Helpless, Ouyang Zhenyu propped himself up on the armrest of the dragon throne with one hand and began to rub his forehead with the other.
He pressed his brow heavily.
After a while, Ouyang Zhenyu stopped rubbing his temples and said to a military officer below him, "General He, how many letters has 'I' sent to the desert this time?"
Why hasn't Ouyang Yuqing replied yet?
Does he not even care about Haoyue Kingdom anymore?
General He was singled out by the Emperor, but he was utterly disdainful.
He was thinking to himself: "Hmph, now that they know they're useful, they've already forgotten the despicable things they did back then?"
It's utterly absurd to use people only when they're needed and then eliminate them when they're no longer in use.
All he knows is climbing on a woman's belly.
What's the point of having more children?
They're all a bunch of weaklings...
General He thought this to himself, but he couldn't say it aloud.
He stepped forward, raised his hand slightly, lowered his head, and said to Ouyang Zhenyu, "Your Majesty, the letter has been delivered to the King of Mobei."
but……
Upon hearing the hesitant words, Ouyang Zhenyu looked at General He.
"But what?"
When asked, General He replied truthfully, "Your Majesty, the Prince has replied. He said..."
Upon hearing Ouyang Yuqing's reply, Ouyang Zhenyu immediately straightened up and said to General He, "A reply? What did he say? Why wasn't the letter sent to me?"
General He cursed inwardly as he practiced and asked three questions.
Damn it, they're in a hurry now, but they were so good at pretending before.
Back then, didn't you say that the letters didn't need to be handed to you, and that everything was at the general's disposal?
"Your Majesty, Prince Zhan has replied. He says..."
Ouyang Zhenyu was so angry at these hesitant words that he was about to vomit blood.
"Tell me quickly, what did he say in response?"
Seeing Ouyang Zhenyu's eagerness, General He replied directly, "The Prince of Zhan said that my wife is about to give birth and he is busy."
…………
Upon hearing the reply, Ouyang Zhenyu slumped onto the dragon throne.
He muttered to himself, "Ouyang Yuqing, aren't you the God of War?"
Didn't you dedicate the entire nation to the cause of Haoyue Kingdom?
My wife and children are just giving birth; how can that be compared to the bright moon?
Have you abandoned the people of Haoyue?
Ouyang Zhenyu gripped the handle of the dragon throne, his hands clenching so tightly that the veins bulged.
He was unwilling to accept this; the Haoyue Kingdom could not fall, and his throne could not be tainted.
Only with Ouyang Yuqing's intervention can he secure his position.
He knew perfectly well what was going on.
He needed Ouyang Yuqing's support to solve his immediate crisis.
A small act of impatience can ruin a great plan. Ouyang Zhenyu, still angry, said to General He, "Minister He, write another letter of divorce and make sure he comes."
