After being divorced, my identity as a poet was exposed

Zheng Wang certainly came at the wrong time.

But he has to come!
Because news from the deserted country came back.

And this is a matter that the emperor is extremely concerned about, and it is also a major matter that the emperor has instructed him to inform him of as soon as possible!
"Master Tiju is safe and sound."

"Great chaos in Dahuang City!"

"The battle of Dry Stone Castle is over. The Desolate Nation lost the Third Eagle and the Sky Eagle Army. Seventy-three of our brothers are buried outside Dry Stone Castle."

"They are on their way back."

"I have finished speaking,"

Zheng Wang bowed and said, "I'll take my leave!"

"Your Majesty, continue!"

"I will guard the door for you and make sure no one is allowed in!"

Li Chenan glared at Zheng Wang and said, "Stop!"

"What are your orders, Your Majesty?"

"Please ask Prime Minister Wen and the others to come up and have a drink, and you should come up too!"

Zheng Wang poked his head in and grinned: "Is this... okay?"

"roll!"

Zheng Wang went downstairs with a big smile on his face, and conveyed the emperor's invitation to Wen Zhuyu and others, but he said it would be half an hour later!

Li Chenan walked towards the screen.

Behind the screen is a bed.

Su Xiaoxiao sat in front of the bed feeling very uneasy.

Li Chenan took a look and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"

Su Xiaoxiao was embarrassed and her face turned red.

Being stimulated by Li Chenan...

"I, I need to go back to my room."

Li Chenan was stunned: "Why are you going back to your room? Come on, play a song for me."

Su Xiaoxiao bit her lip and said, "I can't play it now."

"What about the flute?"

“…I can’t blow it either.”

Li Chenan leaned forward: "What happened?"

Su Xiaoxiao buried her head even lower, wishing there was a crack in the ground she could crawl into.

Her voice was as soft as a mosquito:
"Didn't I tell you last time that I, I'm not available these few days?"

Li Chenan suddenly realized.

"how?"

Su Xiaoxiao became more and more embarrassed, thinking, is this something you, an emperor, can ask?
“It was fine.”

That's not good now.

Li Chenan stood up and said, "Then go back to your room and change."

"it is good……!"

Su Xiaoxiao walked away in embarrassment.

Li Chenan suddenly discovered another money-making business!

It’s so easy to make money from women!
You can't use bras or masks, as these things are not good for women's health.

But you can do other things.

For example...the thing that prevents side leakage.

Alas, I am really worried about the health of the women in Ningguo!

Turning around and walking to the tea table and boiling a pot of tea, Li Chenan remembered the message Zheng Wang had just sent him.

He grinned.

Wang Zhengjinzhong is safe and sound, and the soldiers of Ningguo are safe and sound.

Good.

Turned his head and looked out the window.

There is a full moon in the sky outside the window.

When will Wang Zheng, Jin Zhong and others be able to come back?
After he comes back, he has to go to the Kingdom of Yue!

……

……

The moon is full in the desolate country.

Under this bright moonlight, a team of thousands of people was heading towards Death Valley.

These are Su Muxin’s Ningwu soldiers, Changsun Hongyi’s Yufeng Guards, and the Xuanjia Camp led by Zhou Zheng.

They met in the Altai Mountains, but had already walked out of the Altai Mountains and arrived outside the border town!
But Wang Zheng, Jin Zhong and the others did not go with them!

Wang Zhengjinzhong said that he had something else to do and asked them to leave first... As the director of the Imperial City Bureau, it was not appropriate for Su Muxin and others to inquire about his affairs.

So, they separated at the bank of a lake at the foot of the Altai Mountains. Now six days have passed, and no one knows where Wang Zhengjinzhong and his party have gone.

Standing more than ten feet away from the border town, Su Muxin looked at the brightly lit border town for a long time, then suddenly turned his head and said to Zhou Zheng and Changsun Hongyi beside him:
"The spies from the Imperial City Department said that the fireworks of the Desolate Country were made here. Are you interested in killing them?"

Zhou Zheng said without hesitation: "Go!"

Chang Sun Hongyi raised her eyebrows and said, "Let's do it!"

Su Muxin laughed:
"But the spies from the Imperial City Department also said that Yuwen Feng transferred the Seventh Eagle to the border city, and together with the original guards of the border city..."

Su Muxin raised his whip and pointed towards the border town:
"This small border town is home to 15,000 barbarian soldiers!"

"Look at the defenses on the city wall...it seems they have discovered us."

"They have fireworks, and with the strong walls, it won't be easy to capture the city."

Changsun Hongyi looked up and could vaguely see the shadowy figures of people on the city wall under the bright moonlight.

They stood in the wilderness outside the border town holding torches, making them more easily seen by the barbarians guarding the city.

Now the barbarians have seen it.

Zhou Zhengdao: "It would be better if they could come out of the city."

Su Muxin groaned for three breaths and said, "With the previous experience of Dry Stone Castle, I think they will definitely not leave the city."

Su Muxin was not wrong.

At this moment, Yuwen, the Seventh Eagle General standing on the city wall, was extremely panicked.

The major events that happened in the desert country these days have reached his ears -

Ning's soldiers defeated the Third Eagle Cavalry stationed at Kushi Fort with only 500 soldiers!
More than a dozen Ning people wiped out the thousand border town defenders who were transporting fireworks. They snatched the fireworks and even boldly raided Dahuang City!

The entire street along the Yinma River was almost reduced to ruins.

They hijacked the Ministry of Justice prison, took away the serious criminal Wang Zheng Jinzhong, and turned the imperial palace upside down.

Then, news came that the most powerful Sky Eagle Army of the Wilderness Country was attacked from both sides by the Ning Army in Kushibao, and the entire army was annihilated, shocking the government and the public.

They retreated safely!

But what was even more bizarre was that the Emperor did not dispatch any other cavalry to pursue the enemy.

The order Yu Wenhua received was to garrison the border town and not go out of the city to meet the enemy!

This shows what?
Although Yu Wenhua was a reckless man, he knew that this was enough to show that the fighting power of the Ning army was extremely strong. Even someone as proud as the emperor... needed to retreat.

He stood on the city wall, looking at the torches that looked like a long dragon in the distance, his brows furrowed.

These Ning troops chose to return to Ningguo from Death Valley.

The border town is the last line of defense guarding the Death Valley.

The importance of the border town lies in the fireworks workshop in the city.

These damn things, will they launch an attack on the border town?
Yu Wenhua took a deep breath and said, "Pass on my order..."

"All soldiers of the Seventh Eagle, go to the city walls!"

"All five thousand city guards will go protect the fireworks workshop!"

"Get rolling logs, huge rocks, and kerosene..."

"Archers, be ready to shoot at any time!"

The border town entered a tense state of combat readiness at this moment.

"Everyone, cheer up for this great general!"

"Especially those flying in the sky. Even a fly cannot be allowed to approach the city wall!"

Unlike the tense atmosphere in the border town, outside the border town, Su Muxin and others were relaxed.

Changsun Hongyi looked at Su Muxin and asked:
"They are hiding in the border town. Should we fight them or not?"

Su Muxin looked up at the moon.

"If we attack the border town by force, we will pay a huge price..."

“Not a good deal!”

Chang Sun Hongyi raised her eyebrows slightly: "Then take a detour?"

"Well, order all soldiers to rest where they are... We will set off in an hour."

Zhou Zheng pondered for three breaths and said, "There is a fireworks workshop made by a barbarian in the border town. If we keep it, it may become a big trouble."

Su Muxin looked at Zhou Zheng: "The fireworks must be left to the barbarians."

"Why?"

"Because the barbarians are about to invade the Kingdom of Yue, and with fireworks, it will be much easier for the barbarians to conquer the Kingdom of Yue."

Zhou Zheng was stunned: "But if the barbarians occupied Yue State, wouldn't it be a greater threat to our Ning State?"

Su Muxin smiled slightly:
"No, the barbarians cannot occupy the Kingdom of Yue, but Ning needs a desperate Kingdom of Yue due to heavy losses, and also a barbaric country without fangs!"

"…What does the Emperor mean?"

"My point of view."

Zhou Zheng looked at the border town, pondered for a few breaths, and suddenly laughed: "You scholars are really bad!"

"Tell me, it's Lantern Festival tonight, what is the emperor doing at this time?" (End of this chapter)
