Gu Qingcheng looked at the urgent report from above, and swept his eyes across the people below. He asked, "Prince Yu has only left the capital for less than five days, how did Ling Yue know about this?" The normally warm jade-like face was now covered in frost.

The ministers below were all elites, and upon hearing his words, how could they not know what he meant? As the head of the officials and the newly promoted Secretary of State, Prime Minister Guan was the first to speak, "Your Majesty, Ling Yue's remnants may appear in the capital city."

"According to Prime Minister's words, what should we do?" Gu Qingcheng asked.

"Your Majesty, the most pressing matter now is to retreat. With regards to the remaining evildoers, we can deal with them later." When he finished, many people echoed his words.

Gu Qingcheng seemed to think the same, he did not continue to ask which matter should he settle first. He looked towards the general on the other side and asked, "Is that love letter willing to take the initiative?"

"Your Majesty, your subordinate is willing." Very quickly, a high-ranking officer stood forward.

"Very good, General Wu will immediately order 100,000 troops to repel the remnants of Ling Yue." Gu Qingcheng said heroically.

In his eyes, Ling Yue had always been a defeated opponent. This time, she was able to take back a few cities. It was most likely due to her taking advantage of the situation. Furthermore, there were less than 20,000 soldiers guarding the border, so naturally, he couldn't force them back.

If this time, in the absence of Gu Junxiu, could make this battle beautiful, then in the eyes of others, he might not be so useless. Gu Qingcheng sat on the dragon throne, his eyes revealing a light.

However, when Prime Minister Guan saw that the one who stood out was an unfamiliar general, his heart became uneasy. He said in front of the officials, "Your Majesty, although General Wu is brave and fierce, he knows very little about Ling Yue. This time, Ling Yue's soldiers seem to have taken revenge. These 100,000 soldiers are probably not enough to resist. "

"Could it be that Prime Minister intends to think that my Xiyue's hundred thousand soldiers are inferior to Ling Yue's eighty thousand?" General Wu quickly retorted.

Back then, the reason the Prince Yu was able to easily break Ling Yue was all because he had penetrated deep into the tiger's cave and seized the initiative. However, the situation this time is more favorable for Ling Yue, so I had to be careful. " Although the Prime Minister Guan was just a civil servant, he knew a lot about military matters.

However, his words was the one that Gu Qingcheng did not want to hear the most, there was a thin layer of anger on his handsome face, "Does the Prime Minister think that other than the Prince Yu, there is no other talent in the palace?"

"Your Majesty, please calm your anger. This subject definitely does not mean that." He immediately knelt down, because the wrath of the Son of Heaven was not something he could bear.

"I have made up my mind. General Wu will lead a hundred thousand troops and immediately rush to the border to provide assistance." Do the love letter have any other opinions? " Gu Qingcheng asked.

However, with the Prime Minister's previous example, who would dare to step forward? Even if he had an opinion, he could only hide it in his heart.

Gu Junxiu was not completely unaware of the matters regarding the imperial government. Seeing that his expression was strange, he could not help but ask, "Ah Xiu, what's wrong with you? We are about to reach the Black Cloud Villa. "

"Ling Yue has attacked the Xiyue, she has already recaptured several cities, His Majesty has already sent troops to assist her." He briefly explained what had happened recently.

Ruan Xiaonuan laughed out loud, and asked while gasping for breath, "Their emperor and Regent are both in the capital, who was so bold as to lead their troops to attack Xiyue?"

Gu Junxiu knew that she was not Shen Yuerong, so he did not doubt her attitude. However, he replied, "It's one of Ling Yue's generals."

"Since His Majesty has already sent troops, there's nothing left for us to do. We should just stay in the Black Cloud Villa at ease and enjoy ourselves for a few days." Ruan Xiaonuan thought that he was worried about the war and comforted her.

In any case, she had only been the emperor for a few days, so she didn't care who won. It was fine as long as everyone around her was fine.

"Hurry up, otherwise it's going to be dark." After she finished speaking, she suddenly ran, and in a moment she was far away from Gu Junxiu.

He thought about what Ruan Xiaonuan had said just now and felt that she was right. Since Gu Qingcheng did not send anyone to tell him, it meant that she did not need to participate in this matter. Furthermore, with Ling Yue's current strength, she couldn't contend against the Xiyue, so he had nothing to worry about. Looking at Ruan Xiaonuan who was already far away, he too whipped her horse and caught up to her without any effort at all.

Before the sky turned dark, they had finally arrived at Black Cloud Villa. The servant guarding the door was still the same as before. When he saw Ruan Xiaonuan walking over, he was both surprised and happy as he said, "Miss Ruan, you finally came."

"Since Madam knows that you are coming, she has to come to guard the door almost every day. She almost failed to snatch my job away." The servant's words were interesting, causing Ruan Xiaonuan to laugh out loud.

She pulled Gu Junxiu who was behind her and ran inside. Along the way, all they saw was red, which made them feel exceptionally joyous. She easily found the small courtyard that Lin Zian lived in, but she did not see him.

She cleared her throat and finally drew their gazes over. After that, they all rushed up and expressed their yearning at the same time.

Lin Zian looked at Gu Junxiu, who was beside her, and his face changed. He slowly walked over and said, "You have been living in Black Cloud Villa for a few days and are even more popular than me."

Ruan Xiaonuan walked out of the crowd with much difficulty and answered, "Who told you to keep a cold face everyday? Who dares to come close to you?"

"All of you can leave now." Lin Zian instructed the servants.

After everyone had left, he said to Gu Junxiu, "Your Highness, this rare guest actually appeared in this small Black Cloud Villa." His face was filled with hostility.

Of course Ruan Xiaonuan understood where his hostility came from. After all, Gu Junxiu had killed people indirectly. Although Lin Yemao deserved to be punished. Seeing that the two were about to fight, she hurriedly said, "Lin Zian, don't get agitated yet. Ah Xiu and I came together to congratulate you, we definitely do not have any other intentions. "

"I, Lin Ming, cannot afford to accept your congratulations." Lin Zian didn't give her face.

Ruan Xiaonuan was jumping around anxiously, but those two people didn't listen to her. And even though Gu Junxiu knew martial arts, he was definitely a far cry from Lin Zian. She thought that if the two of them were to fight, the one who would be at a disadvantage would definitely be her husband. At this moment, he didn't care about anything else as he stood between the two of them and said, "We are here to congratulate you. If you don't welcome us, then we will leave now."

After saying that, she pulled the silent Gu Junxiu and left, her face filled with obvious anger.
