The air was filled with murderous intent, and Zhou Buyan said, "Go out and receive your punishment."
The voice was tight and suppressed, as if a storm was coming.
Shadow lowered his head and did not dare to look or think too much. He did not dare to have any opinions when he heard that he was being punished. Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief and quickly retreated.
Zhou Buyan, whose ears were ringing, was left alone in the room.
This time, there is no escape.
Your Majesty and Xiao Jun really...otherwise how could they hug each other.
He just felt blank for a moment.
The promises Chu Xingchen once gave him kept flashing back.
It was His Majesty who made him learn what love is and made him dare to be jealous. But in the end, he knew what love was and became jealous, but His Majesty broke his promise.
Xiao Wang is also His Majesty's Xiao Jun. He shouldn't be jealous, it's all a matter of course.
It is common knowledge that an emperor cannot have only one man or woman.
But for so long before, His Majesty really only wanted him, and he couldn't help but look forward to it in his heart.
But in the end, we still reached this point.
This day has come.
Xiao Wang worked hard, and he was devoted to His Majesty. His Majesty once treated Xiao Wang differently, so it’s no wonder that this happened.
They get along day and night, it's just a matter of time.
Zhou Buyan knew it in his heart, and even made mental preparations consciously, but when the day came, he still felt like the world was shattering.
He didn't know what to do for a moment and asked His Majesty to choose between him and Xiao Wang. Wouldn't Xiao Wang be without him?
What if His Majesty chooses Xiao Wang?
Chu Xingchen had no idea about the pain in Zhou Buyan's heart.
After embarking on the return journey, the speed was much faster than when we came, but when we returned to Feng'an City, it was already the twelfth lunar month and the New Year was approaching.
During this period, Ling Zhou and Zhou Buyan combined their swords and jointly captured the two cities.
At this point, half of Wu's territory has been captured by Chu.
Chu Xingchen knew that the two of them were excellent, but he was still shocked when he heard the news.
Everything was going well, but after Zhou Buyan sent the letter before, maybe he was too busy and no more private messages were sent.
Chu Xingchen contacted him twice but received no reply. This was the first time.
However, the government affairs were too busy, and Zhou Buyan was also busy, so Chu Xingchen didn't think much about it.
On the other side, the country was facing the risk of annihilation in a short period of time. After hearing that Zhou Buyan was fighting like crazy, the Queen of Wu was scared to death and mobilized her troops overnight to move all remaining troops to Tianshui City to protect her.
Seeing Ling Zhou and Zhou Buyan's appearance, they were afraid that they would take down Tianshui City directly.
Although there are two cities in front of Tianshui City, given the current situation, the city will be broken again soon.
Originally, the two cities were very important because of their location, and the garrison and generals were both good.
They all made the decision to defend the city and keep out the danger. Unexpectedly, the Queen of Wu actually asked them to deploy troops to protect it.
In this case, the two cities were in danger and the people were also in danger.
But the Queen of Wu refused to listen. Between the options of leaving Tianshui City to defend, or moving the capital, which is to say, escaping, the Queen of Wu had the guts to choose to stay and advance and retreat with everyone in Tianshui City, but she had to mobilize troops to protect her.
But this was said to sound nice, and all the troops were mobilized to protect her. The people of the remaining two cities were exposed to the iron hoof of Chu.
People in both cities realized that they had been abandoned.
The people in the two cities were desperate, but except for a few who were able to escape, most of them could only stay behind with curses and anger.
Fortunately, Da Chu's reputation was pretty good before, so everyone still had some hope.
Under such circumstances, the people of the two abandoned cities were not prepared to fight to the death.
How could such a good opportunity be missed? Zhou Buyan and Ling Zhou took the opportunity to capture two cities.
Even the first city hardly encountered much resistance and was basically given to Da Chu.
Fortunately, as the rumors said, Dachu did not massacre and clean up individual resisters, and the rest could be regarded as peacefully taking over the city.
In the second city, the army was transferred, but the county guard did not escape. He stopped all the troops from resisting, but it was useless.
The county guard did not drag the people into the water, and finally saw that there was nothing he could do to save the situation. He just hoped that the people would not be touched, and Da Chu would do what he said.
Zhou Buyan still respected his opponent Ling Zhou and agreed very carefully.
After hearing Zhou Buyan and Ling Zhou's agreement, the county governor breathed a sigh of relief, but it was also his fault for failing to defend the city, so he finally decided to die to apologize.
Zhou Buyan and Ling Zhou saw something was wrong and joined forces to stop him.
"You have done what you should do, and you have a clear conscience towards the people and the state of Wu. There is no need to die to apologize."
After Zhou Buyan and Ling Zhou discussed it, they even thought that the county governor could continue to manage the city temporarily and use the waste.
Zhou Buyan said very straightforwardly, "You have been abandoned by the Queen of Wu. Why don't you come to Dachu, and there will be no betrayal. The better you do, the more it will appear that the Queen of Wu is blind, and this can be regarded as your revenge."
"She will be the one who should be angry, regretful, and depressed when the time comes. I don't think you should give up because of this backlash."
Sheriff: "..."
I'm speechless, but isn't it too straightforward?
But the more straightforward the words are, the more direct they are to the soul.
Although he was abandoned, the county guard never thought about betrayal. He could see that no matter how harsh Zhou Buyan's words were, it was still a sign of trust.
How could he not be moved after being given up by being so trusted?
I also admire their boldness and confidence, as if they are not afraid of him taking the opportunity to fight back.
But it was because of this courage, confidence and trust that he finally agreed to temporarily manage it until Da Chu sent someone to come.
After all, he had been abandoned before and was indeed used as waste.
Maybe I can really counterattack the revenge that was given up.
When the news came back to Wu State, many ministers were silent, and so were the people.
The Empress of Wu was very angry. Zhou Buyan's actions showed that she was in vain and was a coward.
"Zhou Buyan!"
She regretted it. If she had known that Zhou Buyan was so powerful, she should have taken the position of prince and let him recognize his ancestor and return to the clan, so that the Wu Kingdom would not be in this situation.
It would be nice to see Zhou Buyan and Chu Xingchen fight.
She regretted and hated it, and she couldn't accept the scolding from others.
She felt that she had done nothing wrong, and the lives of the people were not as important as hers.
The greater the pressure on the Queen of Wu, the more nervous she became. She laid a dragnet and threatened that this time Da Chu would never come back, and she would also defeat Da Chu and take back the two cities.
It's very funny to say such words when the army is approaching the world.
But the Empress of Wu State also had two brushes, and she spent countless time, energy and money to build a strong city that might not be broken down for months.
If Zhou Buyan and Ling Zhou took the opportunity to attack, they might be in trouble.
Unexpectedly, even after the twelfth lunar month and the Chinese New Year, they still didn't attack.
The Queen of Wu thought that Zhou Buyan and Ling Zhou wanted to wait until the Chinese New Year, when their subconscious mind was relaxed and their defense was at its worst to attack.
As a result, defense became even more intense during the Chinese New Year.
But still no call came.
Everyone's nerves in Tianshui City were so tense that they almost broke, but there was no attack.
