C181

The imperial city of the Kingdom of Clear Water.

Bi You was sitting in the magnificent palace, frowning. The ministers around him, the soldiers, all looked at him expectantly, as if they were waiting for him to make a decision.

"Dang Dang Dang", the originally deep voice was very clear in the quiet hall. Bi You Qing tapped his fingers on the golden dragon throne, the frequent rhythm also seemed to highlight his inner anxiety. Ever since he heard the news about Di Gufeng's passage, he had been deeply fearful of this king's position. In the past, the nation's peace and security could still enjoy glory, but now that the country was unstable and ended up like Haojin Kingdom, he didn't want to end up like the King of Haojin who committed suicide.

"Report!"

Suddenly, the voice of the soldier outside the door could be heard.

"Yes."

Bi You sat up straight, his voice a little weak.

That person rushed over with small steps. He lowered his head and handed over a sealed document. "This is the latest military report from Carp City. Please have a look at it."

Since when did Cyan City have a military report?

Everyone, including Bi You, who was sitting up straight on the golden dragon throne, felt that it was unbelievable. The carp city was almost right next to the imperial city, and if those people were able to get inside, then the imperial city would be in danger!

The waiter took the oil seal, and after receiving a sign from Bi You, read aloud what was written on it:

"In today's bazaar in Carp City, there are dozens of people who disguised themselves as locals, causing trouble. Fortunately, they were captured along with the soldiers. However, during the interrogation, those people died one after another. He had gained nothing from the information, but from the bones of the corpses, it seemed that the bandits were not from the Loess Empire. He had also heard that the Kingdom of Loess had entered into a war with the Fire Nation, and had asked the king to decide what to do. "My Lord, City Lord of Carp City."

As soon as the waiter finished reading the letter, the seal disintegrated into powder and dissipated into the air.

The news from Carp City was the 30th encrypted military intelligence report that had been sent all over the country of Clearwater in recent days. So far, except for the Imperial City, the other 30 cities had been the target of the people dressed up as the Yellow Country, but the strangest thing was that, from the reports from the other cities, apart from these dangerous cities, where the people sent by Guo City were all independent experts, the other cities that went further inland became smaller, like Carp City was just some ordinary people with ordinary military power. The information contained in them was horrifying.

"King!"

Luo Yan pondered for a moment, and said while cupping her hands, "According to the information that we have obtained, there is more than one news that these criminals are not from Huang Luo Country, and most of them suspect that they are from Fire Nation. Therefore, his next thought was the same as City Lord Fu Quan's. Could it be that he was trying to sow discord in the Fire Nation? At the moment, the war between the Loess Kingdom and the Fire Nation has already started. There is no time to lose, we need to send troops to save the king! "

Luo Yan was calm and capable, rarely in such a hurry to wait for the king to make his decision. However, in the face of a great enemy, they had to make preparations as early as possible. Of course, he wasn't afraid of his own life or death. His heart was concerned with the safety of the country.

But the king did not seem to care at all, after hearing the report of Carp City, other than frowning a little more and knocking on the chair a little more, even after listening to Luoyan's argument, he still did not speak at a slow pace.

At this point, even the normally quiet Chang Wu You couldn't hold back anymore.

The generals were clearly stunned.

However, just as Chang Wu You was about to speak, the ministers and officials were preparing to admonish him again, the sound of laughter suddenly came from below the stage.

"Hur hur."

Under such a serious scene, anyone who dared to laugh and could laugh would not even need to look up to know that he was Bi You Jin's personal attendant, Bi Qian.

Bi Yu was an outsider who had accidentally saved his orphan when he was in danger. The man had no last name, but he was clever, and Bi You liked him a lot, so she accepted him as her personal attendant. Of course, the waiters of this era were not castrated yet, but Bi Qian had entered middle age for the sake of Bi You and had never taken a wife. This made it somewhat difficult for normal people to understand, but Bi Youzi believed that this was a sign of Bi Qian's sincerity, so she would always listen to his advice.

For example, the matter of helping Haojin Kingdom last time, after receiving Luo Liya's Tears Shadow Worm, Bi You was timid and wanted to avoid trouble. However, after Bi Qian helped him analyze the situation, he felt that sending troops out was very good.

The reason why he didn't want to join the army today was partly because of his good character, but also because of Bi Qian's battle analysis.

Bi Qian laughed softly before clearing her throat. It had been a long time since she had last gotten married. When she spoke, she even had the accent of a woman. Her voice was sharp and ear-piercing.

"Your Majesty, I thought we could not send troops to help the Loess Kingdom."

Bi Qian's voice was slow and high-pitched. The people below the stage could not help but want to cover their ears with their hands.

Luo Yan and Chang Wuyou's faces darkened.

Since when did Bi Qian's internal energy become so strong?

The two of them were respectively at the Celestial level, why did they still feel uneasy when they heard his voice?

But before they could think it through, Bi You asked Bi Qian with a smile, "My beloved, tell me what you think."

From the normal dark color of the jade, both Luo Yan and Chang Wuyou could tell that he was not affected by Bi Qiangfeng's power. Of course, this did not mean that Bi You was stronger than the two of them, but rather that Bi Qian was able to control her own inner strength.

No wonder Bi You had no fear of him!

He had thought that Bi Qian was just a small unspecialized character, while he himself was already at the Immortal Level. However, he didn't know that Bi Qian had already reached the Immortal Grade, so taking his head was as easy as taking an item from a bag!

Luo Yan and Chang Wuyou already had no time to listen to what he had to say, and could only stare at the surroundings of Bi You. Their Zhen Qi was gathering in their bodies, just in case something bad happened!

"Right now, we are unable to protect ourselves, so how can we have the time and energy to help others? Other than that, the rest of the citizens were also afraid of the people of the Yellow Country. If they rashly sent out troops and caused internal strife, what should they do? Therefore, this humble one believes that I cannot help the Loess Kingdom. The most important thing for me to do now is to train my soldiers diligently. "

Bi Qian sounded like she was suggesting something, but as he stood on the platform, looking down on the soldiers, he looked even more like a king than the sickly Bi You on the dragon throne!

But Biyou didn't seem to notice, instead he nodded his head and finally stopped knocking.

"If what my beloved says is true, then it's decided. "Everyone, please step back."

Bi You seemed to be waiting for this moment to happen. As soon as Bi Qian finished her sentence, she hurriedly tried to close the conversation.

However, the sound of a report came from outside the door.

"The frontline soldier promised Shang to wait outside the palace, and asked if he could meet with you."

the waiter asked, looking down.

Bi You looked at Bi Qian subconsciously. Seeing that Bi Qian was silent, he nodded and said, "Xuan."

Dressed in white clothes, Xu Shang slowly walked into the hall as if he were an expert outside the world. Because he was no longer an official of the imperial court, he did not need to bow, and only gave a simple greeting.

"General, long time no see. How have you been?"

Bi You's face was full of smiles, as if Xu Shang was his right-hand man.

"I am indebted to Your Majesty for your concern. However, this old one came here today because I was entrusted by a friend to have a few words for Your Majesty to hear. "

Xu Shang went straight to the point, not bothering to exchange pleasantries with the king. It seemed like he couldn't wait to see what was going on outside.

"Go ahead."

Bi You still had a smile on his face, but it was obvious that it had stiffened quite a bit.

Xu Shang took out Luo Liya's Tears Shadow Worm, and on the screen appeared Luo Liya's beautiful and energetic face. In order to make her argument more convincing, she had found experts during these few days when she was waiting for news and drew up a clear map of the world, showing the remaining four countries of the Fire and Light Country, the Greenwood Country, the Loess Country, and the Jade Water Nation. The originally wealthy and prosperous Haojin Nation was now divided up between the Fire Blaze Nation and the Greenwood Country. Although the area was about the same, the important cities were all divided into the territory of the Fire Blaze Nation.

"Your Majesty, we have yet to hear any news of your intention to send troops. I think that my meaning was not very clear last time, Your Majesty. Look, Huo Yaojiao and the land of the Greenwood Kingdom are neighbors, they are almost tied together, the Queen of the Greenwood Country and Dongli Jiefeng are in cahoots, and the two countries are almost in cahoots. Currently, the two countries have almost half of their territory, the rest are the Jadewater Country and the Loess Country. "

"The degree of civilization is not high, and the weapons are equipped slightly backward. However, the people are very courageous and good at fighting, and their national cohesion is strong. Although they are far from being as strong as the Fire Nation and the Greenwood Kingdom, because they are relatively well-off and have poor weather conditions, as long as we grasp the results of the war well and add to that the help from our country, it is not impossible for them to win. To take a step back, even if this war were to fail, we can bring the soldiers of the Country of Loess into the country, or train our allies directly within the country of Loess. These can all play a very important role in the war against the Fire Nation. "

She took a toothed stick and kept drawing circles on the map. Her point of view was sharp, and she pointed it straight at the vital parts of her body, causing everyone to nod repeatedly. Seeing how powerful her daughter was, Luo Yan's face glowed with an indescribable pride and pride.

Bi You was not without his own thoughts, but he was lazy on one hand and timid on the other, so he did not think much about the war first, and then he understood that it was a matter of life and death, so he did not want to come to an early conclusion. That was why it had been delayed until now.

Now that he saw this young lady from a noble family able to analyze the situation, he felt that what she had said made sense. He immediately placed a finger on his forehead.

The chancellor's spirits were lifted. Whenever the king did this, it was mostly a matter of life and death.
