Chapter 207 Enemy Invasion
Her laughter was crazy, like someone on the verge of despair.
"I should have died a long time ago. It was Brother Chu who gave me the chance to be reborn. Now that I have to return it, it is only right."
Shen Ruyu laughed sarcastically, "Since you don't want this dynasty to be named Song, then change your name from now on! That will also be considered as fulfilling Brother Chu's wish!"
"What do you mean?!" Lin Qiming frowned and shouted angrily.
"It means exactly what it says." Shen Ruyu curled her lips, "Didn't you say that Brother Chu colluded with the enemy? That's his own uncle, how can that be considered collusion?"
"Since you don't want Brother Chu to inherit the throne, why not give it to your in-laws, that would be a good thing."
"You bastard! What did you do!" The emperor rushed over and slapped her, his hands shaking with anger.
Shen Ruyu was almost speechless from the slap, blood slowly flowed from the corners of her mouth and nose, but she didn't feel any pain, instead she laughed even harder.
"Admit it, you finally panicked, right?!"
Her eyes were filled with madness, she was sober and mad, pointing at Lin Qiming and scolding them, "Do you really think you have the victory?! Hahahaha... Then I will let you taste the taste of your family being torn apart!" As
soon as she finished her words, a man hurried in from outside the palace gate and reported, "Your Majesty! The border is in danger! There are traitors in the army, the military defense map has been leaked, Qi State attacked in one fell swoop, we lost 15 cities in a row, and General Fu died in the battle!"
"What?!"
Lin Mobai's voice trembled, almost losing his voice.
In the six months at the border, Fu Rui had been a mentor and friend to him. This news was a bolt from the blue for him.
"Hahaha... retribution! Retribution! This is all retribution!" Shen Ruyu laughed crazily.
The emperor was so angry that he slapped her hard a few more times.
Lin Qiming quickly stopped him and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty! At this critical moment, you should find a way to stop Qi's attack!"
The emperor was so angry that his face turned red and his neck was thick. He pointed at the eunuch who had just reported the news and said angrily, "Then fight back quickly! Are you still waiting for Qi's troops to arrive at the city?!"
The eunuch said with a sad face, "Our army suffered heavy casualties, with tens of thousands of losses. The remaining people have become a mess because of the death of General Fu. They can't fight against Qi's armored army at all..."
"And... and..." "
And what?!" the emperor roared.
"Moreover, the border is running out of military supplies. Now the treasury is empty and we can no longer supply them..."
The court was unable to provide supplies and manpower, and the morale of the soldiers at the border was low. If this continued, they might end up with the destruction of their country and the conquest of the city by the Qi army!
The emperor seemed to have aged countless years in an instant, and he fell into his chair in confusion.
Song Mo was anxious and angry, "Then why didn't you get any military intelligence before!"
The eunuch cried, "The military intelligence that was received before was already presented to Your Majesty, but Your Majesty did not give any suggestions..."
"Father!" Song Mo couldn't believe it.
The emperor realized something belatedly and staggered to his feet, searching everywhere in the Qianqing Palace.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." The chief eunuch hurried over, "What are you looking for?! I'll help you find it!"
After a while, the emperor found a book from the corner. He opened it with trembling hands. It really recorded the serious military situation in the past half month. His heart skipped a beat and he fell to the ground.
"Your Majesty!" The chief eunuch shouted anxiously.
The emperor pointed at Shen Ruyu with a trembling mouth, "You... You planned all this..."
"Yes, it's all me." Shen Ruyu smiled with relief, "I told you these were all unimportant things, but you believed them. You can only blame yourself for being such a failure as an emperor."
"Tell me, if the people of Dayan knew that their emperor was obsessed with beauty and ignored government affairs, which led to the country's downfall, what would they think?"
"Hahahaha..."
"You! You!" The emperor rolled his eyes and fainted.
"Your Majesty!"
Everyone rushed forward.
"What should we do now, Dad?" Lin Zhiyu looked unhappy and full of regret.
They didn't expect Shen Ruyu to have contact with the enemy country and kept the war a secret so that they couldn't get a whiff of it! It really turned the tables on them!
Lin Qiming didn't say anything, but looked at Song Mo.
After a while, he knelt on one knee in front of Song Mo.
"Lord Lin, what are you doing?" Song Mo was terrified.
"Your Highness, the war situation is urgent now, and the morale of the army is low. I volunteer to go to the border and destroy the State of Qi!"
Several people in the Lin family were shocked.
"Dad!" Lin Ruqian was incredulous, "What will we do if you go?! What about my mother!"
The border war was urgent, even Fu Rui died there, and those who went there would almost hang their lives on their necks. If they were not careful, they might...
"Our Lin family has been generals for generations! Naturally, we should do our duty!" Lin Qiming said sternly, "If we don't go, who else can go?! Are we going to let the people go?"
Lin Ruqian stammered twice, his eyes were red, and he didn't say anything.
Lin Zhiyu also remained silent.
"I'll go too, Dad."
Lin Mobai put Lin Baoer on the ground, looked at Lin Qiming with burning eyes, and clenched his fists. "My eldest brother and third brother have never taken this path, but I have always been loyal to it, so no matter what, I should do my part."
"Second brother..." Lin Ruqian bit her lip.
Song Qingqing's eyes also turned red and she looked away.
Although she was sad, she understood what Lin Mobai was thinking, so she didn't say anything to stop him.
She knew that this was his belief.
Song Mo was shocked by their righteousness, and his chest was filled with heroic spirit. "Then I, as the prince of the Great Yan Kingdom, should go! Otherwise, where will the people be placed!"
"No!" Several voices stopped him at the same time.
Lin Qiming shook his head, "Your Majesty's current appearance...it's better for the prince to stay in Yanjing City."
Song Mo glanced at the unconscious emperor and sighed.
"But now the treasury is empty, and there are no material resources. Even if there are people..."
"I have money!" Lin Ruqian wiped his tears and choked, "Your Highness! I have money!"
"I made a lot of money before. Taking it all out should be able to alleviate the empty treasury. As long as it can calm the war, I am happy to take any amount..."
He then said a number, which shocked everyone.
[I didn't expect that the third brother is... so rich. ]
Lin Baoer smacked her lips and was also shocked.
She knew that Lin Ruqian was rich, but she didn't expect him to be so rich.
Two-thirds of his wealth is enough to fill the treasury.
Song Mo was also very happy, his expression was excited, "Then should we wait until our father wakes up..."
Lin Qiming shook his head and fell to the ground with a loud sound, "The military situation is serious, we can't delay for a moment, we must set out immediately!"
