After traveling through time, I became a thorn in the eyes of the sickly prince
Chapter 224: Asking the Prince to Take the Throne
Dong Feng's lips trembled as he knelt on the ground. "Your Highness, the capital has been lost and the palace has been occupied by the Red Flame Nation. They are now robbing and killing people everywhere in Kyoto. All our gold, silver and jewelry have been taken away by them. Also, the Emperor, the Queen Mother, the Grand Queen Mother and all the concubines have been abducted by the Red Flame Nation. They were led away with ropes tied to their necks!!!"
"what?"
Murong Yue's head buzzed, her body swayed, and her brain went blank. She looked at the officials in front of her as if she had lost her hearing. She had been working hard for many days to fight against the Yuanlong Kingdom, and now she felt as if her whole body was hollowed out.
"Your Majesty!"
Everyone exclaimed.
Gu Qingzhou strode forward, helped Murong Yue sit on the chair, and gently comforted her, "Your Highness, Your Highness, relax, you can't get into any more trouble!" He looked at An Muxi and found that the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and she was actually smiling.
"Princess, do you have any way to make the prince get better quickly? I don't have any silver needles with me."
An Muxi came back to his senses, stopped smiling, took out a bottle of cooling oil, and applied it on Murong Yue's temple. Emma, the emperor, the queen mother, the grand queen mother, and all the concubines were dragged away with their hair disheveled, how come it looks a bit like the Jingkang Shame!!!
Murong Yue gradually recovered and finally regained consciousness. She slowly stood up and walked towards the entrance of the hall. She had always known that all the princes had been killed and their fiefdoms had been lost, but she had never expected these people to come to the abandoned city so soon.
All the officials in the hall wailed again, "What should we do? If Kyoto falls, won't we also fall?"
"Yes, the Chiyan Nation is here to avenge its past. Didn't the King of Pingnan also break into their capital and take away a large number of treasures?"
"Hey, but, but the Prince of Pingnan didn't abuse their emperor and women, it's really too much!!!"
Everyone had sad faces and wailed.
Mu Xi, Rong Jing and Gu Qingzhou no longer had the heart to look at the account books. The country was destroyed and looking at the account books would not save the country, so they all walked out of the hall together.
Murong Yue rode to the outside of the abandoned city and saw a large number of Daxia soldiers, all of whom were dishevelled and had loose hair. Some of them had lost their shoes, and some of them had hollow coughs and looked sick for a long time. These were the loyal guards of several princes, counselors, and tutors, and some were defeated soldiers from various places.
"Your Majesty!"
When everyone saw Murong Yue on horseback, they all knelt down, and some burst into tears as if they had seen a savior.
Murong Yue dismounted from the horse and said, "Everyone must have been tired from traveling all the way, please get up quickly!" He scanned the huge crowd of soldiers and found that there were at least 200,000 of them.
A large number of people stood up, but some were still kneeling on the ground.
The Third Prince's counselor Yan Hanzhi said in a trembling voice, "Your Highness, the Third Prince died tragically, the capital was lost, the Emperor, the Empress Dowager, the Grand Empress Dowager, and all the concubines were abducted by the Red Flame Nation. They were led away with ropes tied to their necks. Your Highness, this great humiliation must be avenged."
Tang You, the Fourth Prince's personal guard, said angrily with red eyes, "Your Highness, after New Year's Eve, I accompanied the Fourth Prince to his fiefdom Yanmen. But as soon as the Fourth Prince entered Yanmen City, he was blown to pieces by a bomb that had been planted in advance. I was far away from the Fourth Prince at the time, so I was spared. Your Highness, we can't let His Highness be plotted against in vain."
The Fifth Prince's adviser Pang Lei pounded the ground, "Your Highness, the Fifth Prince was also killed in this way. They had planned all along to murder the descendants of the Murong family and embezzle our Great Xia territory. Your Highness, I am willing to assist you in ascending the throne. Great Xia cannot be without a monarch!!!"
"We are willing to assist the prince in ascending the throne!" All the soldiers shouted in unison.
When An Muxi rushed to the city gate, she just heard these majestic words, and her heart was filled with joy. Looking at this situation, it seemed that she was going to become the queen, and she could also sit in that high position and order people around, eat bear paws and deer tongues, and be picked on by others?
Rong Jing looked at Mu Xi's raised lips and coughed lightly. Nothing happened yet, but she was already smiling happily. With the domineering nature of this princess, if that day really came, all the women in the prince's harem would probably be banished to the cold palace.
Gu Qingzhou clenched his hands in his sleeves. When he was in Yuanlong Kingdom, a fortune teller said that the prince would ascend to the throne. He didn't believe it then, but now it seems that it will come true.
Murong Yue's scorching eyes swept across the faces of every soldier.
"Thank you all for your kindness, but the emperor was only abducted, he didn't die. One day~~!!!"
Before he could finish, Zhang Taifu knelt down and cried loudly,
"Your Highness, no, even if the emperor comes back, he will lose the support of the people. How can an emperor who has been a prisoner establish his authority? Nowadays, except for those old uncles, the descendants of the Murong family are either dead or disabled. The few young princes have just learned to walk. Only you can take on the important task," she said, and cried again. After crying for a while, she continued,
"Your Majesty, Daxia cannot be without a ruler for a day. The people of Daxia are now being slaughtered at will by foreign invaders, and women are being raped at will. Please step forward and take up this responsibility. We are willing to assist you in ascending the throne."
"We ask the prince to ascend the throne!!! We ask the prince to ascend the throne!!!" All the soldiers shouted again, and the high-pitched voices floated between heaven and earth, turning into a stream of righteousness that soared into the sky.
Listening to the loud cheers, Mu Xi was overjoyed. He imagined that his soldier's clothes were the queen's gorgeous clothes, and he was followed by a large group of palace maids and eunuchs, serving him all kinds of food. Wouldn't the An family's business be better in that case? Good things came to his mind one after another. If he drew a cartoon picture, Mu Xi's head would be surrounded by all kinds of fantasy bubbles.
General Huo Yuanshan took a big step forward, knelt on one knee, and said with full energy:
"Your Majesty, I was defeated in Wanping and fled here with my brothers. It's not because I'm afraid of death, but because I don't want to sacrifice in vain. I think dying is more valuable. Along the way, we are all for the people~"
Huo Yuanshan's voice was choked with sobs and his whole body was shaking. He could no longer speak. That horrific scene was like a sharp sword piercing his chest, stirring his internal organs and making them feel uncomfortable.
Twenty generals came out at the same time and said in unison:
"Your Majesty, we were defeated in Fengyang, Chunnan, Luochuan, Taiming, and Minggushan..."
One important checkpoint and fortress after another was mentioned, like a sharp knife, cutting off piece by piece the territory of Daxia in Murong Yue's mind.
Murong Yue tried hard to piece together the remaining land area. Her heart was broken and a feeling of powerlessness rose from her heart, as if a huge stone was pressing on her chest.
