"Princess, do we really not need to send troops to defend it?"
When Wen Renyong came to visit him that day, he also received the news that Pei Yanche's offensive was very fierce, and coupled with the fact that he had a team of wizards at his disposal, he was invincible and undefeated.
The border has been lost, and he is now heading towards the Dali Imperial City, determined to take it in one fell swoop.
Shen Qianyue was in a lazy state, and was not impatient when she heard this: "The Li Dynasty values civil officials over military officials. Your Majesty listened to slander in the early years and did not recruit soldiers or train generals. Apart from General Wenren, no one else in our Li Dynasty can go to fight."
Wenren Yong became anxious upon hearing this and quickly said, "I am still able to move my bones. As long as I can protect Li Dynasty, I will not hesitate to sacrifice my life!"
"Then do you still remember what this princess showed you?"
Wen Renyong's mighty body stiffened and his eyes dimmed.
She said: "The more you resist, the more ferocious Pei Yanche will fight. There is something called luck in this world. Unfortunately, he is the master of luck chosen by God."
"The fall of the Li Dynasty is inevitable. All you and I can do is to defend the Imperial City until he brings his troops here. We will open the city gates for him and strive to ensure that not a single soldier in the city is harmed."
The Li Dynasty was already extremely corrupt, with internal and external troubles, and other countries were also eyeing the Li Dynasty covetously. It was just that Pei Yanche took the lead in doing what others wanted to do but did not dare to do.
Wen Renyong was even more shocked after hearing this: "Open the city gate? Princess, are you going to surrender?"
But he thought about it and realized that if he didn't surrender, the final outcome might be Pei Yanche slaughtering all the people in the imperial city. This was an ending that no one wanted to see.
At that moment, Wenren Yong looked very mature.
"Alright! As the princess said, on the day Prince Pei arrives, I will personally go and open the city gates for him!"
He will bear the blame for this crime!
"No need."
Shen Qianyue said lightly: “This princess will go to greet you personally.”
"Princess, you..."
Wenren Yong was greatly shocked: "You are the eldest princess of a country, how can you..."
"It is precisely because I am the eldest princess that I should bear this crime."
Instead of letting a country's elders bear the responsibility and chill the hearts of the people all over the world, and if she didn't do this, how could she find an excuse to escape in the future?
Besides, her reputation has long been ruined, so she doesn't care about these little things.
Wenren Yong probably knew what she was thinking, and could only sigh silently.
"In that case, thank you for your hard work, Princess."
"Not really."
After all, everything she does is profitable. When people discover the truth, her faith value will make a qualitative leap.
Now the people in the imperial city are in a panic, and everyone is discussing what to do in the days to come. However, some people believe that the Li Dynasty is a big country, and the Southern Kingdom has been a vassal state of the Li Dynasty for generations.
Even if they attacked, they didn't have the courage to attack the imperial city, and they were mysteriously confident in the Li Dynasty.
But after a few days, when they found that Li Dynasty still had no movement and Pei Yanche's army was getting closer and closer to them, they finally panicked.
They all requested Shen Qianyue to send troops to suppress the rebellion. After many days of silence, some people blocked the door of the princess's mansion, and cursed and shouted.
There were also people throwing manure, rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs into the princess's mansion.
They shouted and cursed that Shen Qianyue was a jinx, and that sooner or later she would cause the demise of the Li Dynasty and make the people homeless.
In response to this, Shen Qianyue simply had the door of the mansion closed and rested in the backyard by herself.
Bai Zhi brought the lunch over and sighed softly, saying, "Princess, those unruly people are really too arrogant. You are a princess after all, and their insults are too filthy."
Some people even said that if Dali was destroyed, it was caused by the princess. How could her princess have such great ability to cause the collapse of a dynasty?
"Whether they curse or not is not important at all. If they want to curse, then let them do it."
Seeing Shen Qianyue's nonchalant look, Bai Zhi became even more worried.
"Prince Pei is about to arrive in Shangjing. Princess, are you really not going to escape?"
The princess treated Master Pei like that before, and every time he looked at her, he looked like he wanted to eat her alive. If the princess didn't run away, when Master Pei attacked, the first person he would want to take revenge on would definitely be the princess.
Now those people in Shangjing who had bullied Prince Pei have become confused and want to take over Shangjing.
But the city gates were closed and they couldn't escape at all.
"Don't run away. Just sit here and wait to die."
She yawned lazily, turned over and fell asleep again without even eating lunch.
Although Xiaoba can help her prevent some morning sickness, there is no way to stop her from feeling sleepy during pregnancy because she also needs to recuperate and conserve her energy.
When the ice and snow melted, tender yellow buds appeared on the streets of Shangjing. It should have been a festive and warm season, but everyone in Shangjing was in danger, and was trapped in the fear of the country's destruction and the loss of their families every day.
The messenger rushed for eight hundred miles, saying that Pei Yanche would arrive in Shangjing in ten days at most.
The more time went by, the more intense the people's curses became. They even wanted to take the weapons in their hands and smash the door of the princess's mansion.
Fortunately, Wenren Yong sent people to guard the place, so nothing serious happened.
But Pei Yanche arrived faster than she had imagined, and the original ten-day trip was shortened by half by him.
When he led his army to the gates of the city, the people of the imperial city were left with only despair.
Shen Qianyue stood on the city wall, looking at the Southern Kingdom army approaching her, feeling unusually calm.
She was alone today, even Bai Zhi didn't come.
He saw the figure standing on the city wall from a distance. She seemed to be thinner than two months ago, and her body seemed as if it would fall down with a gust of wind.
“Look, that’s the eldest princess of the Dali Dynasty, Shen Qianyue, the culprit who trapped our monarch in the princess’s mansion for eight years!”
"Today, no matter what, we must break down the last gate of Dali and capture Shen Qianyue alive, so that she can kneel before our king and kowtow and beg for mercy!"
The generals around him spoke excitedly, as if they had already imagined the noble princess kneeling on the ground and begging. It was really gratifying!
The dark army approached, their pitch-black armor emitting an intimidating cold light, completely different from Shen Qianyue standing on the city wall in gorgeous clothes.
Even though she was alone, her powerful aura and pressure still oppressed people.
"My Lord, what are you waiting for? Charge in!"
The deputy general beside him watched Pei Yanche looking at the people on the city wall. His eyes were indescribably cold, but they hid more tenderness.
I haven't seen her for two months. Why is she so thin?
Is it because he knows that his country is about to be destroyed and his family is about to be ruined?
Or is it because of him?
Pei Yanche did not encounter any obstacles while killing his way here. Being too relaxed would make people notice something unusual.
