The Emperor said, âYe Luji is staring at our throne and they are dispatched right by the river. What countermeasures do you have?â
After the Emperor finished speaking, everyone could definitely hear a pin drop in the Wende Palace as no one spoke. However, all gazes were directed towards Prince An.
Someone came out and reported, âYour Majesty, for the present plan, it is important to ensure Your Majestyâs safety or we can move the capital. However, moving the capital cannot be achieved overnight. I am afraid that someone needs to stop Ye Luji and other soldiers by the river to buy time for Your Majesty and the Princes to evacuate.âNe/w novel chapters are published on
Another courtier frowned when he heard this and said, âMoving the capital will easily cause turmoil among the people. When the time comes, the enemy will advance and weâll retreat, but there are still 100,000 soldiers in the capital. Ye Luji has a chance of crossing the river with 100,000 people, which is equal to the strength of our capitalâs forces. If there is a reliable commander, we will be able to fight. Perhaps, there is no need to move the capital. â
He fell here, but he was getting up on this very spot again. Since he could fall from such a height, he was going to be able to climb up the same distance again as well.
All his fame was earned inch by inch through his hard work and that was it. Everything else was a cycle of repetition.
After Xie Xuanchen finished speaking, no one spoke, but everyone felt that they should be so relieved. It was true that they were afraid of Xie Xuanchen, but it was also because of his presence in the capital that the soldiers of the Northern Army stood by Lincheng, less than ten miles away from the capital. This allowed the court officials to stand here and argue whether or not to move the capital instead of being entirely helpless. The people outside the imperial city were also doing whatever they needed to do. Although they were nervous, they never panicked.
As long as the King of Qiyang was still there, the city walls of the Ye Dynasty were indestructible.
The Emperor heard the declaration from the Prince and he was not surprised. The whole court fell into silence, waiting for the Emperor to make up his mind. Xie Xuanchenâs comeback was expected and the only thing everyone was worried about was the Emperorâs secret yet public despicable thoughts.
