Inside the Ziwei Palace.
The youngest children of the Wu family were mocking Ying Dang.
No one cared about this kind of thing at first.
I thought it was just children's play.
Even the new Wu State Emperor Wu Shiqi, who was seated before the coffin, did not take the quarrel of the children to heart.
Because his mind is now full of how to govern the country next.
There are also some women who are not clear about the identity behind Yingdang or who know but are disdainful of it.
They believed that Yingdang was just a hostage sent to the State of Wu.
The woman is ignorant of state affairs and has a narrow vision, so it is understandable that she has such thoughts.
However, at this moment, after Wu Meiniang finished inspecting the imperial tomb and came into the palace, she happened to hear the voices of those children.
He immediately flew into a rage and shouted at the children:
"How dare you! Who gave you the courage to speak like that?"
"Since you are descendants of the Wu family, I will not punish you. Apologize to Dang'er now!"
As soon as the words fell.
Some women who disliked Wu Meiniang began to sneer and mock her:
"It's just a few kids making a fuss. Is it necessary to make such a fuss?"
"You already have children before you even get married, and you still have the nerve to mention the words 'descendants of the Wu family'."
"That's right. Now that the late emperor has just passed away, you're already showing off your power in front of these children?"
“…”
When Wu Hua was alive, they didn't dare to speak to Wu Meiniang like this.
The latter took a deep breath, her body trembling with anger. She tried to calm her anger and said in a deep voice:
"You and all of you are still here safely to mourn the late emperor because of this child!"
"How dare you, such ungrateful people like you, speak so shamelessly?"
As soon as these words were spoken.
Many women felt that she was exaggerating, so they began to speak:
"A child, protecting our Wu Kingdom? Who is so shameless!"
"That's right, you're not afraid of hurting your back when you brag!"
“…”
Their husbands knew Yingdang's identity very well, so they told the women to shut up immediately:
"Okay, stop talking!"
"Kneel down properly, aren't you afraid of being laughed at by the officials outside the palace?"
“…”
But those women, in order to support their own children, really did not know their place:
"Why are you shutting up? If you're outdone by her now, you'll never be able to hold your head up in this house again!"
"That's right, Wu Meiniang is just your sister, why are you protecting her so much?"
“…”
When Wu Shiqi heard these words, he could no longer hold back. He slowly stood up, looked around at everyone, and said sternly:
"If you want to quarrel, go outside and don't disturb the late emperor's sleep."
"Mei Niang, don't bother with them."
With the emperor's words, no one dared to speak out.
At this moment, Di Renjie, the Minister of Personnel of the Wu State, rushed into the hall in a hurry and bowed to Wu Shiqi, saying:
"Your Majesty, the Qin army has arrived!"
Qin army!
When everyone heard these four words, their faces changed drastically.
At this critical juncture, what does it mean that Qin suddenly sends troops here?
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Wu Shiqi.
In fact, he was aware of the arrival of the Qin army.
Because the Qin State had informed him in advance.
As for why he didn't tell everyone, it was because Wu Shiqi believed that there was a connection between Qin and Wu because of Mei Niang.
Nor will they take the opportunity to kick someone when he is down.
What's more, Wu Shiqi had just ascended the throne and did not dare to offend the State of Qin, so he simply let the 30,000 Qin soldiers enter the pass.
It's not like he didn't make preparations.
He has transferred all the 100,000 troops from the capital camp into the city.
"All of you, follow me to the city gate to welcome the Qin army."
The warrior gave the order.
Someone was confused and blurted out: "This Qin army..."
Wu Shiqi explained: "Qin is here to offer condolences. He is a guest, so there is no need to worry."
After he finished speaking, he also looked at Wu Meiniang deeply.
The latter did not respond verbally, but just nodded, signaling the warrior to be at ease.
Afterwards, the new emperor of Wu State led the royal family and officials to the city gate.
This is the highest honor for the Qin State.
After a stick of incense.
In front of the city gate.
The royal family and officials all looked into the distance.
Thirty thousand majestic and awe-inspiring heavily armored cavalry are rolling in like a raging flood.
The earth is shaking.
The big banner with the word "Qin" fluttered in the wind.
Wherever the long spear goes, it makes people tremble with fear.
Some officials and royal family members all started whispering to each other:
"Qin is indeed a martial nation. Their army is truly formidable!"
"Iron-clad steeds, halberds, bows and crossbows, such an elite division could easily sweep away the 100,000 cavalry of our Wu Kingdom!"
"Even if Qin's 30,000 cavalrymen were to face Wu's 100,000-man army, I'm sure Wu would be the loser in the end!"
“…”
I heard the conversation between them.
Wu Shiqi's face was gloomy.
But he had to admit it.
They are all telling the truth.
The army of Wu State was indeed no match for the army of Qin State.
Not to mention the Wu State, even the current Jin State cannot do it.
Only the armies of Feng and Xia can fight against the Qin army!
Wu Meiniang held Yingdang's hand tightly and smiled, "Look carefully, this is your father's army, an invincible army."
