C131 Big Defeat Message

At the border, the battlefield was filled with shouts of war. Soldiers were rushing to retreat one by one, and the enemy soldiers were charging towards them in an unstoppable manner.

It was obvious that this time, it was another huge loss. General Shen stood on top of the city walls and helplessly looked at the retreating soldiers, feeling extremely depressed in his heart.

He did not dare to say that he had been through hundreds of battles, but he had fought for his entire life. Even so, he had been defeated time and time again under his leadership.

If this went on, it would definitely affect the military's fighting strength. General Shen had specially planned to win a beautiful battle to cheer the soldiers up, but who knew that everything would go according to his plan. In the end, he actually fell into the enemy's trap, and got himself killed.

The enemy general seemed to be able to predict the future, and every time he fought, he would know of the enemy's plan and counterattack.

Right now, the border was a mess, there were all kinds of bandits and other people running everywhere, the people running everywhere, and the army was panicking. If not for General Shen's reputation, some of the soldiers would have already lost their will to fight and run away.

Only after seeing the enemy troops stop and begin to retreat did the General Shen let out a sigh. He walked down from the city walls and lost yet again, he still wanted to report the situation of the battle to the Emperor.

A few days later, the letter was finally delivered to the capital of Liang Country.

"Your majesty, there's news from the border."

There were very few news about the border. It was not easy to get news about it now, but it made people uneasy.

"Hand it over." Fu Yuheng received the letter from the eunuch with both worry and anticipation. He had suffered continuous defeat at the border wars, and this truly made him uneasy. He eagerly hoped to hear the news of the victory.

After taking a deep breath to calm his heart, Fu Yuheng opened the letter.

The contents of the letter were very short, but he read it over and over again, and his brows unconsciously knitted together. Sure enough, General Shen was defeated once again.

Fu Yuheng let out a helpless sigh. Without even thinking, he knew that it was time to deal with the doubts of the officials.

Fu Yuheng shook his head. After changing into his court uniform, he went to the imperial court.

"Your majesty, I heard that the was defeated once again. This General Shen has been through hundreds of battles and has a lot of experience, we all know that, but why did he keep losing?"

His and General Shen's politics were at odds, so he would naturally not let go of such a rare opportunity to suppress General Shen.

Fu Yuheng frowned slightly and sighed in his heart.

"Your Majesty, this subject believes that the General Shen has been defeated consecutively for several days and should be punished. Give the fallen soldiers an explanation!" Prime Minister Liu continued to propose.

The officials who were attached to the Prime Minister Liu and wanted to watch him make a fool out of himself also agreed one after the other.

As the Sovereign King, Fu Yuheng did not want to punish the General Shen. However, since the hundred officials were forced into such an urgent situation, he could not do anything about the anger in his heart. "Shut up! Send down an order on us, if we do not command properly, we will be punished for two years! "Retreat!"

After Fu Yuheng finished his sentence, he left without waiting for the other ministers to react.

Leaving the officials looking at each other, Prime Minister Liu secretly clenched his teeth, this was truly troublesome, he did not expect it to still not be able to pull him down, but he wanted to see, just how long could General Shen last?

Lian Yun was originally prepared to go out to prepare some refreshments for Shen Qing Wan, but just as she was about to go out, a milky white dove flew over from the sky, flapping its wings and flew towards the window in front of the house. Seeing that, Lian Yun could not remember what she had thought about at the moment, she anxiously ran into the object, she knew that the dove was a tool for Master and Miss to deliver the message, during this period of time, the Master had been out fighting, and the Miss had to rely on the information from the dove to be able to feel at ease.

"Miss, the pigeons have entered!"

Shen Qingwan also saw the pigeon in front of the window. She reached out and gently held it, and skillfully removed the letter on its leg. When Shen Qingwan received the letter, she immediately became worried, and constantly worried about her father's situation, afraid that bad news would come from the border.

"Miss, quickly take a look!"

Seeing that Shen Qing Wan only held the letter in her hand and did not open it for a long time, the hesitation on her face couldn't be more obvious anymore, and she couldn't help but urge Shen Qing Wan.

Shen Qingwan took a deep breath and opened the letter in her hands. Her heart sank when she saw the first line and frowned slightly. She finished reading the letter word by word and then read it three or four times.

At first, she was a little disappointed, but soon after, she was more worried. The general meaning of the letter was that the border was in chaos, and if the strategy was leaked out, the General Shen would once again be defeated.

She could tell that the soldiers in the border area had lost the war, so their morale was definitely low. It was likely that her father's situation wouldn't be any better.

Her worried emotions were all hanging in her eyes as she paced back and forth in her room. Her heart was filled with the scene of General Shen pondering and worrying at the border gate, she could no longer hold back, she raised her leg and was about to walk out the door, Lian Yun saw her movements and immediately stopped her.

"Miss, what are you doing!"

She looked at Lian Yun and said with determination, "Lian Yun, I'm going to look for the emperor so he can agree to let me go to the border trials. Father definitely won't be in a good situation right now, I need to go help."

Lian Yun looked at the flustered Shen Qingwan, she knew that something must have happened to the old master at the border. But the young miss was now a concubine in the imperial harem, she absolutely could not reveal herself, let alone go to a place like the border.

Miss, you can't go to the border, the Emperor won't agree to it, and Master won't agree either. What you should do now is to protect yourself, so that Master won't have another body. You have to believe in Master.

Lian Yun's words caused Shen Qingwan to calm down. It was just as Lian Yun had said, even if she went to the Fringe, she would not be able to help out in this battle, instead, she might be a burden. It would be better to just stay in the capital, to pay attention to the happenings in the previous empire, and maybe even help out.

She sat on the chair, feeling bitter in her heart, the smile on her face was filled with helplessness. After all, she knew that her father was in a difficult situation, but she had no other choice than to quietly watch on in the carefree capital city.
