In the Golden Palace, the emperor and all the ministers were as anxious as ants on a hot pan. At this time, the army of King Beiliang was approaching, and the Darong Kingdom was in danger.
At this time, General Han, the emperor's most trusted general, was nowhere to be seen, which made the emperor and his ministers extremely anxious.
Zhou Bin and a group of candidates stood in the main hall, looking at the situation in front of them. It was estimated that no one could take care of them.
The other candidates all lowered their heads with expressions of horror on their faces.
They thought to themselves that they were so unlucky to have encountered such a thing. They were afraid that their wealth and glory would be ruined.
Only Zhou Bin was standing in the hall, and suddenly a story flashed through his mind. He remembered that he had read in a book that an emperor also encountered a similar situation, but later turned the danger into safety.
If things really don't work out, he will make this suggestion, which may help the emperor.
Just as Zhou Bin was thinking secretly, the person sent by the emperor suddenly ran back.
As soon as he entered the hall, he fell to his knees, his face full of fear.
When the emperor saw him coming back, he hurriedly asked, "Where is General Han?"
The soldiers below hurriedly reported: "Your Majesty! Something terrible has happened! General Han has defected to the King of Beiliang!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the hall immediately fell silent.
The emperor was so shocked that he trembled: "What did you say? General Han defected to the King of Beiliang?"
"Yes, he also took away his 50,000 troops!" said the soldier with a look of horror.
The emperor would have chosen not to listen, but when he heard it, he collapsed on the dragon throne.
The other ministers were also in a panic and didn't know what to do about this matter.
If this is true, then there are no troops available near the capital.
Currently, the 50,000 troops closest to them are stationed 50 miles away, so it will take some time for them to get here.
This means that the entire capital city now has only a few thousand people available, while the other side claims to have an army of hundreds of thousands, and they now have no ability to resist at all.
At this moment, panic spread throughout the hall. Everyone had a frightened look on their faces, wishing they could turn around and run away.
The emperor was also panicked and asked hurriedly: "My dear ministers, the situation is urgent now. Do you have any way to resist the enemy?"
The ministers looked at each other, no one had a solution to the crisis, and they all lowered their heads and remained silent.
The emperor was still waiting for everyone to speak, but when he found that no minister could share his worries, he became furious.
He beat and scolded these ministers for being incompetent, but even at this time they were still unable to share the emperor's worries. They were simply good-for-nothings.
At this time, the prince also led his men over. When he saw the situation in the Golden Palace, he knew that something was wrong.
The emperor was at a loss at this point and immediately asked his son what to do.
The prince was used to a life of luxury and had never encountered a situation like this before. He was at a loss for words.
The emperor's face showed deep disappointment. His own prince was unable to help him. It seemed that it was God's will to destroy the Dayong Kingdom, and it was irreversible beyond human control.
The emperor closed his eyes in pain. At this moment, he kept calling out in his heart, hoping that God could bless him and the country of Dayong. If a great hero descended from the sky at this time, how happy he would be!
Just when he was in great pain, a voice suddenly came from the hall: "Father, what's the situation now?"
Everyone looked back hurriedly and found a young general walking in from outside the hall. He was dressed in military uniform, looked heroic and very eye-catching.
Zhou Bin also looked back and saw a young general with a face as white as jade and a tall stature.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a princess. No wonder the voice sounded like that of a girl.
The prince saw that it was his sister, Princess Ruyi, who came. He hurriedly asked, "Sister, why are you here? And you are dressed like this?"
Princess Ruyi raised her face and said loudly: "Brother, our country is in danger now, and my father is in trouble, so of course I have to come!"
As she spoke, she had already arrived in front of the emperor and bowed, "My daughter greets my father!"
As soon as the emperor saw her, his frown instantly relaxed.
He asked lovingly, "Yu'er, why are you here?"
Princess Ruyi said loudly: "Father, I heard that the Northern Liang king's army was invading, so I came here specially to protect the country."
When the emperor saw his most beloved youngest daughter dressed in military uniform and full of heroic spirit, his eyes couldn't help but become red.
He said lovingly, "Yu'er, I am very happy that you can come to help my father solve his problems. But you are just a girl and cannot fight in the battlefield. You should go back."
When Princess Ruyi heard this, she immediately became unwilling: "Father, although Yu'er is a girl, she has learned martial arts since she was a child, and is very skilled in archery and horse riding. Why can't she go into battle and kill the enemy?"
Seeing his daughter's face full of dissatisfaction, the emperor was moved.
He even thought to himself that it would be great if Yu'er was a son, then he could pass his throne to her.
It's a pity that such a lovely child cannot inherit the throne because she is a girl. It is also a regret for him.
Then he looked at his own prince, who looked so cowardly, and he got angry just by looking at him.
If he could share my worries, would I still have to suffer so much?
Princess Ruyi looked at her father and asked anxiously, "Father, what is the situation now?"
The emperor had a helpless look on his face and told his daughter about the current situation. Princess Ruyi frowned and was also helpless after hearing it.
