The host is broken

Chapter 605 Female Phase (12)

Su Shumo chuckled twice, and the empress who laughed felt terrified.

……

The winter in Dachu this year is extremely long, the snow seems to be endless, it falls day and night, and the thick snow accumulated on the ground can submerge the legs of a seven or eight-year-old child.

There is a sign from the sky, there is bound to be a catastrophe. General He Lan sent many letters to the army one after another, all of which were in dire straits, and several cities were also lost one after another. .

The atmosphere in the capital was tense, and everyone was terrified. Every household locked their doors and windows, and they dared not go out. There was no laughter and laughter in the streets.

In the Golden Luan Hall, the empress looked at a group of ministers below, with a deep tired look on her face:
"Do you have any suggestions, my love?"

The soldiers approached the city, but the opponent did not continue to attack, obviously deliberately playing tricks on them.

Everyone is silent, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know if I dare not say it, or I can't help it.

The empress looked at the silent crowd and became irritable:
"Aren't one or two very good at talking on weekdays? Now I want you to talk and let you make up your mind. Why don't you say it?"

The empress was angry, she really thought that this group of people could go to heaven if they were so powerful, but in the end, they only had a powerful mouth.

The female emperor's voice was gloomy, her face was lonely and cold, and the atmosphere in the whole hall was a little shuddering.

After a dull moment, someone finally spoke weakly in a low voice:
"Your Majesty, Dongyi soldiers are already approaching the city, we... we should surrender."

What else can be done other than surrender, even if you can resist for a day or two, what about one month or two months?

The empress, who was originally furious, suddenly calmed down at this moment, but her eyes were a little more serious:
"What do you think, is Da Chu really going to surrender to Dongyi?"

Everyone looked at each other, and after a while, a minister bowed his hands and knelt down:
"For the safety of the emperor, I feel that the only option is to surrender."

If you don't surrender, you will die when the Dongyi people break through the capital.

In the entire hall, there were only a few people standing still, their eyes and expressions were determined.

The empress was heartbroken, pressing her fingers between her brows, closing her eyes for a long time before opening them, she looked more and more tired:

"What about the rest?"

"I will swear to the death to defend Dachu!"

The voice was not loud, but it was sonorous and powerful, and it lingered in the entire hall.

The empress was finally relieved, and she let go of the hand tightly pressed between her eyebrows. She looked at the ministers kneeling on the ground below and several imperial daughters, took a deep breath, and issued an order:
"The soldiers are approaching the city, and I don't blame you for abandoning Dachu and fleeing. At noon, I will order people to open the city gate. If you want to leave and surrender, go, I will never stop you."

When the empress said this, everyone was startled and wanted to say something else, but Dongyi's army was guarding outside the city. If they surrendered and joined those men, there might still be a way out.

So, no one said anything.

The court meeting soon came to an end, and the empress issued an imperial decree soon. Those in the capital who were scared by the Dongyi people to hide at home and dare not come out, heard that the empress would open the city gate and let them surrender. They couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Start packing up.

However, some people began to discuss things in the court:

"A relative of mine was on duty in the palace. I heard that during the court meeting, the girl didn't even say a word. Fortunately, she is still the patron saint of our Great Chu Kingdom. Now that the soldiers are approaching the city, why doesn't she protect us ordinary people? .”

"You can't say that. If it wasn't for the young girl who was injured on the battlefield, would the Dongyi people dare to invade our Great Chu?"

"Injured? If she didn't insist on taking that male prostitute to the battlefield, would she have been injured?"

Someone ridiculed.

This happened three years ago. At that time, the original owner was still the number one female general of Chu, and Qing Lun hadn't redeemed himself from Yihong Court. Because he had never seen a battle, the original owner took him to the battlefield.

In that battle, in order to save Qinglun, the original owner had his leg bone cut by the enemy. Although his leg would not be amputated, he could no longer fight on horseback.

In fact, it was Qing Lun's conspiracy to weaken the Great Chu Kingdom's combat power. As long as the original owner could not go to the battlefield, the Great Chu Kingdom would not be afraid.

"Anyway, I won't run away. In the past, it was the female minister who protected the Great Chu Kingdom. Now we should protect the Great Chu Kingdom ourselves."

Da Chu is not just women, they are from the Da Chu Kingdom, and they also have the responsibility to protect the Da Chu Kingdom.

Now that foreign enemies invade, even if you die in battle, you will not be afraid!
"My life is gone, so why protect me? If you don't leave, I will leave. On this day next year, I will burn paper and burn incense for you!"

As the man said, he picked up the packed bags and fled with the team towards the city gate.

At the city gate, there was a dark crowd, it seemed that people from the entire capital had gathered.

The Empress stood on the city wall, looking at the people who lined up the entire Suzaku Street below, with mixed emotions in her heart.

She considers herself a diligent emperor who loves the people. During these years of her reign, the Great Chu Kingdom was prosperous and peaceful, but now, when foreign enemies invaded, her ministers and subjects abandoned her, abandoned Great Chu, and surrendered to the enemy. What was in her heart? Not uncomfortable, why not sour.

Taking a deep breath, the empress closed her eyes, pondered for a moment, and opened them again, her eyes were cold, as cold as the snow that had fallen all over the city.

Su Shumo stood beside the empress, looking at the empress with a frosty face, with a faint smile on her lips.

From the plot, she knew how deep the empress's feelings for the Great Chu Kingdom were, but no matter how deep she was, she was not betrayed in one day, just like she had guarded the world for hundreds of millions of years.

"My lady, do you think that I, the emperor, have failed?"

The empress looked sideways at Su Shumo and asked.

"Survival of the fittest."

Su Shumo's eyes were inexplicably bright red, and it looked like a raging flame was burning deep in her eyes.

Every wrong decision is the way of heaven weeding out these despicable existences, no matter whether they are humans, animals, or flowers and plants, without exception.

"Survival of the fittest..."

The empress repeated these four words in a low voice, and she suddenly remembered her royal sisters who died in the battle for the throne in the early years. If she can become the winner in the battle for the throne, then she is the destined empress , no one can take her away!

In the crowd, Yu Xiu looked at Qing Lun and Yu Zhi with complicated expressions:

"You really want to leave?"

The two looked at each other and sneered:

"If you don't leave, why don't you stay here and become the souls of the Dongyi people?"

The Dongyi invasion was what they were looking forward to.

Yu Xiu fixed his eyes on Yu Zhi's face, he always felt that he had sorted out something, but he ignored something:
"Father, brother is the empress' concubine, do you want to leave too?"

"He wants to die, that's his business, I'm getting old, I want to live a few more years."

Yu Zhi replied.

Yu Xiu already knew that Yu Zhi was cold-blooded. When his mother died, he was not sad at all, and he even had the feeling that he had longed for his mother's death.
