It's not scary to travel through a book, you can change your fate as a cannon fodder by yoursel

No matter how excited Yang Shuo was at the moment, he had to calm down. He had already completed the ninety-nine steps, and he had to be extremely cautious in the last step.

Only if he handles the present affairs well can he have a future.

I didn't feel tired at the moment. I sat there motionless, my brain rapidly calculating the various situations I would have to deal with tomorrow.

……

Having a feeling that tonight would not be peaceful, Weng Xiaoxiao went to bed with her clothes on. Although she said she had fallen asleep, she actually did not fall asleep at all.

"Master, Jiuzhou is back."

Before going to bed, Weng Xiaoxiao told me that if there was anything, I should call her directly, no matter how late it was.

Weng Xiaoxiao put on her cloak and walked out, asking with a hint of anticipation, "How is it?"

Jiuzhou shook his head. "That kid ran straight home without any hesitation. I followed him halfway and could only send him off in a secluded place."

Just go, and consider it as getting rid of a harm to the people.

If Wen Chong still had a trace of conscience and could finally do something decent, Weng Xiaoxiao would never take his life.

If Wen Chong had said that he doubted Cheng Yu, the emperor would probably have believed him. If it had been someone else, it would have been useless. Besides, who could Weng Xiaoxiao persuade to take the lead?

The bright starlight illuminates the earth, and I am afraid that many people will suffer from insomnia tonight.

Weng Xiaoxiao was silent for a moment, then waved her hand and said, "You two should go back and rest. The rest of the matter is not something we can handle."

Erlong and Jiuzhou looked at each other. They had to consider their master's safety. If their master insisted on doing something, they would have no choice but to sacrifice their lives to accompany him.

The two of them bowed and took their leave. There was nothing to do now, and they would probably have to run themselves to pieces tomorrow.

……

"Master, things have changed in the palace."

Erlong's voice came from outside the door. Weng Xiaoxiao sat up with a start, and ran out in her slippers without even putting on her cloak.

Erlong looked at his anxious master and had to remind him, "Master, go back to the house first. It's too cold outside."

She couldn't afford to get sick at this critical moment, so Weng Xiaoxiao followed the advice and went back to the house, put on her cloak, and asked Erlong to sit down and answer the question.

"Si Xi has been keeping an eye on the news from the city. The Imperial Guards, who were supposed to go out of the city to help in the battle, did not leave after the city gates were opened, while the Tuowang Army waiting outside the city came in effortlessly and quickly took over the city defense."

"The general didn't catch up with us?" Weng Xiaoxiao asked hurriedly.

Erlong shook his head, he was also confused.

Weng Xiaoxiao frowned and tapped the table lightly with her fingers.

It was unlikely that Yang Shuo hadn't noticed Prince Tuo's movements, but the situation of internal and external cooperation was really difficult to deal with, and he probably no longer had any advantage in terms of military strength. If he continued to fight with exhausted troops, he would be doomed to fail, and more people would die...

I hope Yang Shuo figured this out before giving up the pursuit.

"How's the palace?"

"It's been fighting for half the night, but now it's quiet."

Prince Tuo has been planning for a long time and even won over Cheng Yu, so it probably won't be difficult for him to take control of the palace.

"How is the emperor? How are the concubines?"

Although the general trend has not changed, many details have changed. At this moment, Weng Xiaoxiao is most worried about Yang Lin's condition.

Erlong shook his head. Their people couldn't get too close, especially when dealing with the emperor, concubines and others. Prince Tuo wouldn't make a big fuss about it. Such things would be palace secrets.

Now that Prince Tuo has taken over, the city and palace defenses should be extremely strict. This is not the time for her to take advantage of the situation, so Sister Yang can only rely on herself.

The sun rises late in winter, and it is just getting light now. Weng Xiaoxiao is no longer sleepy. "Except for Madam, please keep your troops on hold. Let the rest go. I want to know the general's current situation."

"Yes."

"Erlong, go to the general. He needs help more now."

Erlong was stunned for a moment, then knelt on one knee, "Master, my mission is to protect you, you can't be alone."

Ping An and Shun Sui each had their own tasks. The Eight Immortals went to Madam Yang. If the three of them went out together, Weng Xiaoxiao would be left alone. Erlong had a heavy responsibility and could not allow such a thing to happen.

Weng Xiaoxiao, who never made things difficult for her subordinates, thought about it and did not insist. With Erlong around, she indeed had less worries.

......

"Master, King Tuo is riding a tall horse and leading his troops into the city."

Since King Tuo won, he naturally had to enter the city in a grand manner.

With the sunrise, everything is a new beginning.

......

"Master, the emperor has issued an imperial edict, decreeing that the throne will be passed to Prince Tuo."

Just listen to this, the royal family attaches great importance to dignity.

However, King Taku's actions are really fast!

Mr. Gu has made an indelible contribution.

......

"Master, the general led a group of generals into the city on foot, and they are almost at the palace gate now."

"Try again," Weng Xiaoxiao put down her bowl and chopsticks. She had no appetite to begin with, and now she couldn't eat anymore.

"Wait, I want to go there too."

"Master, you should wait for news at home."

Weng Xiaoxiao put on her cloak, put on her hood, and walked out without saying a word.

Yang Shuo was right in front of her, she couldn't just wait like this, whether it was good or bad, she could endure it.

If anything happens, she can rush over to see him.

Weng Xiaoxiao shook off her chaotic thoughts, grabbed the reins, jumped up, and galloped on the empty street.

......

Yang Shuo held the seal of the general in his hand and knelt on the ground, "Your Majesty, Yang Shuo, will lead his troops to surrender."

King Tuo sat on a high seat, looking with emotion at the general with whom he had fought fiercely yesterday.

"allow."

The deputy general beside King Tuo walked over, took the seal, and kicked Yang Shuo.

Yang Shuo had a blank expression on his face. He struggled to get up from the ground and continued to kneel straight.

"Go back."

When fighting, Yang Shuo was a respectable opponent, but now his position is different. As a king who rules the country, he needs a general who is capable of fighting.

A general can be killed but not humiliated.

The deputy general, who was about to attack again, stopped immediately after hearing King Tuo's rebuke, turned around and handed over the general's seal.

If Yang Shuo is to be kept, the Yang Family Army will have no need to exist, and the team needs to be disbanded and reorganized.

"Generals, please stand up. We have performed our duties faithfully. This is not your fault. All the past is in the past and should be written off."

After saying this, King Tuo looked at his old team and said, "In the future, when we serve in the same palace, what happened today must not happen again."

Some people change quickly, some people change slowly, and some people find it difficult to accept that prisoners become colleagues.

"Your Highness, Yang Shuo, has something to report."

King Tuo looked at the young general, guessing what he was going to say, "General, please speak."

"My right hand tendons are injured. It is difficult for me to lift a pen, let alone a sword. A man who cannot lift a sword cannot be a general. Please allow me to resign."

Prince Tuo really didn't expect Yang Shuo to say such a thing, and he didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Gu Yanqing was amazed and respectful of Yang Shuo's boldness. He bowed and stood up, "Your Majesty, why don't you ask an imperial physician to treat General Yang? If his hand is really injured, it will be difficult for him to lead troops to fight."
