The Imperial Tutor looked deeply at the woman on the bed, he lowered his head, turned around and left. After the secret room gradually darkened, nobody noticed that the woman’s hand was moving a little, her tightly closed eyes were trembling, it seemed like she wanted to wake up but was obstructed by something.
The Ling Emperor stood in the main hall as he looked at the trembling ministers down below: “There’s so many of you, can’t it be that you all cannot think of an idea? You bunch of trash.”
There were many families in the Ling Empire who had defected, they actually helped Xiao Empire and Feng Empire to take action against them, it was simply a humiliation for him.
”Your majesty, this......”
”What? I gathered you here to get some ideas, not for all of you to mumble and spout nonsense over here,” The Ling Emperor was so angry that he wanted to directly throw the chair he was sitting on. They were all a bunch of trash, they were actually unable to settle something so trivial. They would often say this was simple and that was simple, as if they knew everything.
During the crucial moment, they did not have the slightest use at all, it had simply angered him.
The ministers down below couldn’t help but furrow their brows, they tried their best but they could not come up with any ideas, but they had been scolded by the person up above, they were feeling uncomfortable inside, when someone mumbled unhappily: “You’re the one who caused it.”
”What did you say?”
”This subordinate did not say anything,” That person hurriedly shook his head, he still wanted to live, he would not directly say his mind, wouldn’t it be seeking death?
He glanced coldly at that minister. Since he did not admit it and there was nothing he could do about it, he could only glare furiously at him.
”Reporting to your majesty, there’s an urgent report from 800 miles away,” Someone suddenly ran in, he handed over the battle report.
After the Ling Emperor finished reading, his eyes turned dark, he directly fainted in the main hall.
The head eunuch beside the Ling Emperor immediately sent someone to summon the imperial doctor, he subconsciously glanced at the parchment, it was written that Ling Empire had lost five cities in a single day.
Based on the current speed, it would not be too long for Ling Empire to be split between Xiao Empire and Feng Empire, furthermore, both empires have a marriage alliance, they could be said to be ants on the same string.
The head eunuch furrowed his brows tightly after seeing that parchment, he kept the parchment when the crowd was not noticing. He calmly stood by the side and looked at the fainted Ling Emperor with worry on his face.
The Ling Emperor gradually woke up after two hours. Those ministers had long left.
After waking, he looked at the eunuch by the side and said: “Send someone to summon the Prince.”
Ever since something happened to Nangong Yue in Xiao Empire, although the Ling Emperor did not abolish his Princes’ status, he had ignored him.
He was feeling fortunate he did not go overboard at that time. If not, there would be no one to come up with ideas for him.
Nangong Yue quietly looked at the eunuch in front of him, he waved for him to step back after hearing what he said: “I understand.”
After that person left, Nangong You threw the book in his hand to the side, there was a sneer at the corner of his mouth. It was just like what she said, when the Ling Emperor was forced into a corner, he would definitely find him, her guess was correct.
Wasn’t it the case right now? When Xiao Empire and Feng Empire were closing in, he really came for him.
He stood up, reached out and patted the non-existent dust on his body, he then headed to the imperial study in a cold manner.
Seeing the late Nangong Yue, the Ling Emperor frowned in displeasure: “What were you doing? Why are you so late?”
”If Imperial Father dislikes it, your son can leave,” He turned around and was about to leave after speaking.
The Ling Emperor choked and spat blood, he glared furiously at Nangong Yue, he said coldly: “Stand right there.”
Nangong Yue stood there obediently, he then turned around and looked at the Ling Emperor, he furrowed his brows a little and had doubts on his face: “I wonder why you’ve summoned me?”
Seeing this son in front of him, the Ling Emperor felt indescribably complicated in his heart: “The current situation in Ling Empire is really bad, what should I do?” He urgently told Nangong Yue about the news from 800 miles away.
”There are only two choices, either we allow them to swallow Ling Empire one step at a time, or we surrender to them.”
