Chapter 638 Execution Plan
Xiao Xue didn't deliberately mention that the ambush in the canyon was the information provided by Du Ning'an, which was a bit contrary to the national interest.

Although Xiao Xue was a little uncomfortable with Du Ning'an's actions for the sake of royal power and revenge, she understood his actions.

Knowing more about his intentions, the Luoyan Empire's army failed, and the highest decision-maker was his younger brother, the scum who murdered his mother's position and was responsible.

At this moment in the palace, Du Ningping's expression became more and more gloomy when he heard Yan Luotian's statement, and his hands trembled unconsciously.

But he didn't know that Yan Luotian had been back for two days, and he just entered the palace today to tell about the disastrous defeat of the imperial army in the canyon.

"What? More than half of the 20-strong army has been lost. Sect Master Yan, you promised to take down the Jia Ma Empire in this expedition. Why is this happening now?"

Du Ningping was very angry. When the Poison Sect came to discuss the joint dispatch of troops, he was very high-spirited. Not long after he ascended the throne, someone sent such a big gift.

It is impossible not to be excited, Du Ningping has even started to dream, thinking about the three kingdoms carve up the land of Jia Ma Empire.

This is the first time the Luoyan Empire has expanded its territory in hundreds of years, so he is one of the greatest monarchs of the Luoyan Empire.

At that time, no one can shake his throne, no one can.

But man is not as good as God, it is obviously a war that can be easily won, but now it is a complete defeat.

"Your Majesty, this matter has been a conspiracy of the Izumo Empire from beginning to end."

Yan Luotian was also unwilling to reconciled with this defeat. He was even worse. Not only was he defeated, but now he was poisoned and his life was in danger at any time.

Du Ningping didn't understand the meaning of Yan Luotian's words, so he stared at Yan Luotian and asked.

"What do you mean?"

Yan Luotian then narrated everything that happened in the canyon, and concluded with one sentence.

"Your Majesty, if the Izumo Empire hadn't betrayed its promise and ambushed us, how could we have suffered heavy casualties? I think the Izumo Empire wants to swallow the Jia Ma Empire and our Luoyan Empire in one go."

Du Ningping angrily crushed the armrest of the dragon chair.

"Okay, okay, since the Izumo Empire is so brazen, don't blame us for stabbing in the back."

Du Ningping's words made Yan Luotian feel uneasy, it is not wise to send troops at this moment.

If this is really the strategy of the Izumo Empire, especially in the canyon, he has already suffered a disastrous defeat.

Especially Xiao Xue, and that nasty monster, he couldn't resist at all.Thinking about it, it is very likely that this Xiao Xue did not go to the Black Mountain Fortress just to stabilize the Poison Sect's rule in the Izumo Empire.

With such a person, let alone the Luoyan Empire, it may not be possible to win even if the Heavenly Snake Kingdom is brought together.

What's more, the Heavenly Snake Kingdom doesn't like this method at all. With their temperament, they look down on any alliance at all. After all, the strength of the Heavenly Snake Mansion is really strong.

"Your Majesty, calm down first."

"How do I calm down? With such a disastrous defeat, how do you ask me to explain to the courtiers who opposed it back then? You also know that they have always had objections to my father's succession of the throne to me. I thought this battle could be changed, but it ended in a disastrous defeat."

Du Ningping's words did indeed exist. The old emperor was not dead yet, but he was just unwell, so Du Ningping hurried to the throne.It has long made people doubt themselves.

But Du Ningping is also very clear about one thing, that is, the reason why he was able to rise to the position was because of the support of Jin Yanzong.Of course, he still has friendship with Poison Sect behind Jin Yanzong's back, which is why he can question Yan Luotian so confidently at this moment.

Yan Luotian's complexion was very bad, but Du Ningping was chosen more because he is a waste and easy to control.

"Your Majesty, calm down. The Poison Sect clearly has ulterior motives. Otherwise, why would our army be ambushed as soon as it left the territory of the Izumo Empire? Only we know the marching route."

When Du Ningping heard Yan Luotian's words, the anger in his heart eased slightly.

It's just that he still can't figure out why the Poison Sect betrayed him?Could it be true as Yan Luotian said?Have plans for the Luoyan Empire?Now it seems that there is only such an explanation.

"Sovereign Yan, you also know that some veterans in the court have criticized me. They didn't believe me when they promised to cooperate with the Izumo Empire. Now that it is true, they may make a big fuss about it. You also know that my imperial brother is not dead."

Du Ningping didn't want to push Yan Luotian too hard, and now the two of them were sitting on the same boat.

At the beginning, Jin Yanzong would also go with the army, so those ministers did not continue to stop them.

"Your Majesty is right, so I didn't let the army withdraw to the imperial capital, as long as we block the news. Wait for a great opportunity to gamble again. As long as we get what we wanted before, we won't be afraid of the gossip from those ministers."

At this moment, Yan Luotian explained why he left the army at the border.An important reason why it was not directly brought back to the imperial capital.

Facing Yan Luotian's arrangement, Du Ningping was still very satisfied.

It's just that Du Ningping's anger ignited inexplicably against a villain like the Izumo Empire who contradicted his promises.

"Sect Master Yan, do you think the Jia Ma Empire has a chance of winning?"

Yan Luotian shook his head and explained: "The Jia Ma Empire has only one Queen Medusa who is the Dou Zong, and now it doesn't count as Xiao Xue who intercepts me. It is also difficult for the Jia Ma Empire to compete with the Izumo Empire and the Mulan Empire. "

Du Ningping originally wanted to pick up a bargain, but now I'm afraid there is no bargain to pick up.

Du Ningping's eyes were low, and he looked listless.

Inside the inn, the lights in Xiao Xue's room were still shining.

"Young master, originally I thought that you would just hold Yan Luotian back, but I never thought that I would defeat him and bring him back at the same time. It's just...it's just the death of nearly [-] imperial troops. I feel ashamed of them."

Xiao Xue didn't know if Du Ning'an really felt guilty for those soldiers who died.

However, Xiao Xue still needs to be grateful to Du Ning'an, with his information, he can successfully set up an ambush and repel the Luoyan Empire's army.

However, Xiao Xue keenly discovered a problem. Du Ning'an should also be planning a shocking secret.

The secret is how he ascended to the throne of God. Most of the disciples of Jin Yanzong fought with the army, and he did have the ability to launch a coup.

It's just that he seemed to have disrupted his plan, Yan Luotian entered the imperial capital a day earlier than himself, he should have noticed something before giving up.

Xiao Xue really didn't know how to respond to Du Ning'an's words. Saying he was right seemed wrong, and saying he was wrong seemed to hurt him even more.

Xiao Xue had no choice but to caress the Erha in her arms boredly, to relieve the present silent atmosphere, she could really hear the sound of her breathing clearly.

I'm okay with beating people up, but I'm really not good at comforting people, I'm always the kind to be comforted by others.There are also those who are already strong enough, it seems that they rarely need comfort.
