The atmosphere in Xiyuan was depressing and tense, and Lu Zheng was pretty good. He had experienced strong winds and waves and had personally led his troops to fight. Although he knew that the situation was dangerous, he was still calm.

Compared with Su Xinghai, Duan Tanglin and other prime ministers, there were also six people including Zhong Wanxiang, Jin Wannian, Cao Weiming, Zuo Chu, etc., and they were as uncomfortable as ants in the hot nest.

The capital city is the foundation of Su, Duan and other families. If the capital city falls again, their families will encounter an unprecedented huge crisis. In this case, how can they not panic?

Also, once Shandong cannot hold on to the power of the local squads like Cao Weiming, the Liaodong cavalry will surely sweep across Henan and Hebei. That is their foundation. Once Henan and Hebei fall, can they still be at ease in the capital?

In such an atmosphere, the air in Xiyuan seemed to solidify, but Emperor Xinde still did not appear. The sky in Xiyuan was still filled with the smell of grass, trees, medicinal stones. It was probably until dawn that Eunuch Feng finally came and said that everyone could meet.

In the warm pavilion of the West Garden, Emperor Xinde looked a little embarrassed, with a gray face and a gloomy face. Everyone knelt on the ground to pay his respects and did not move.

Su Xinghai said: "Your Majesty, the King of Qi was defeated in Shandong, and the Liaodong rebels crossed Shandong and rushed westward. The two rivers were already in danger, and the capital was under the rebels' army. The situation was critical. Please ask Your Majesty to judge!"

Emperor Xinde was confused for a while and there was no movement. Xu Tiandao behind him could not bear it anymore and came over and said, "Your Majesty, Shandong is defeated!"

Emperor Xinde was stunned for a moment, and then a ferocious look appeared on his face, and he roared: "Shandong defeated? What did the King of Qi do for food? I handed over all my elites from Dakang to him, but he was ruined to me in such a short time? I sent the imperial edict to ask the King of Qi to return to Beijing immediately. I want to ask him in person, how did he quell the rebellion for me?"

Emperor Xinde suddenly became furious like thunder, his eyes widened, and his fierce light flashed in his eyes. After this, the ministers looked at each other. Su Xinghai said with a thorn in his mouth, "Your Majesty, the King of Qi has been forced to escape south, and his traces are still unknown, so it is difficult to determine his life and death!"

Emperor Xinde was stunned for a moment, staring at Su Xinghai, his eyes widened, and his bulging eyes seemed to roll out of his eye sockets!

After a long time, he yelled, sat down on the collapse and said, "This boy is deeply disappointed! With his talent, he will definitely not be defeated even if he cannot win. Now that he has suffered a crushing defeat, he only means that he has been deceived. Long Lingxiu is too smart and powerful. Long Zhaorui is not her opponent!"

Emperor Xinde looked around and looked at the ministers coldly and said, "Didn't you come up with a solution after receiving the 800-li expedition? Just looking at each other one by one, is there no solution?"

Duan Tanglin said: "This matter is very important and concerns the foundation of the country. Even if we have countermeasures, we dare not implement them privately. Only by obtaining His Majesty's ruling!"

Emperor Xinde said: "Well, then you can talk about your thoughts first. Duan Tanglin, since you have an idea, please say it!"

Duan Tanglin said: "From the current situation, the Liaodong Iron Cavalry is as fast as fire, and Tan Lei personally led a large army to be unstoppable. I think Your Majesty should avoid the edge of the moment. The last time Your Majesty went to Shandong to worship the sky, this time he could travel to Jiangnan through the canal to enjoy the scenery of Jiangnan."

Emperor Xinde suddenly stood up and said, "What do you mean is to let me escape? I want to escape like a dog that is stray and flee to Jiangnan to take refuge? Could it be that all our subjects in Dakang are dead? Our Dakang's military preparations have really become a scum? We can actually escape without fighting as a defense in the capital?"

Emperor Xinde was angry, and everyone in the hall was silent, and no one could make a sound for a moment. The scene was extremely awkward. Duan Tanglin was pushed down in front and could not allow him to retreat. He immediately gritted his teeth and continued:

"Your Majesty, this is not to ask you to escape, but to be safe, so that your subjects can defend against the enemy with peace of mind! You are the Majesty of Dakang and our backbone. If you live in the capital and the traitors attack the capital, our soldiers will inevitably be nervous, and may backfire because of this, and it will not be beautiful..."

Emperor Xinde grabbed the teacup in front of him and smashed it hard on the ground, shouting: "Stop talking, shut up! Can't I hear me if I shut up?"

Duan Tanglin quickly shut up, his face flushed, and his mood was extremely disappointed and heavy. At this point, Emperor Xinde could not face the reality. At this moment, can he still expect to defend against the enemy?

Dakang's army is no longer the same as before. Long Zhaoyan judged that the Nanya army was almost wiped out, and only the Jinwu Guard was led by Lu Zheng. In addition to Henan and Hebei's army formed an army.

This army was handed over to Qi King Long Zhaorui. Long Zhaorui defeated Shandong. It was probably already 70 to 80% of the 100% of the army. In addition, after Long Zhaorui went to Shandong, the capital rebuilt the twelve guards. The twelve guards had just been formed. Emperor Xinde sent an order to come. Qin King Long Zhaohuan took charge of the Western Expedition and took all the troops away from the Western Expedition. Except for the 20,000 Yulin Army, there was no army in the capital.

Under such circumstances, if the Liaodong Iron Cavalry comes forward, can Dakang resist? The so-called clever wife cannot cook without rice. Even if she is a powerful general, what can she do without soldiers?

Su Xinghai said on the side: "After this matter, can you pass on a letter to the King of Qin and ask the King of Qin to lead his troops back immediately to guard the capital?"

Emperor Xinde said: "It's the only way to do this! Long Zhaorui lost what I hoped, passed on my will, and rushed back to the capital quickly, and at the same time passed on the imperial edict in the world that I would like to grant Qin the crown prince of the Eastern Palace and let the crown prince supervise the country..."

Emperor Xinde complained for a while and finally began to face the reality. He was as smart as he naturally knew that the capital was difficult to defend. For him, the only way out was to quickly escape south of Jiangnan, and then throw the capital matter to Qin King Long Zhaohuan, hoping that Long Zhaohuan could defend the capital.

However, at this moment, the northwest sides had already torn their faces apart. The Song family and Long Zhaohuan in Longyou were fighting fiercely. At this time, Long Zhaohuan suddenly retreated. How could the Song family give up?

Long Zhaohuan returned to Beijing, facing the Liaodong Iron Cavalry in the east and the Longyou Iron Cavalry in the west. Not to mention him, even if it was a god of war, it would be difficult to survive. Lu Zheng suddenly felt sad in his heart.

In his opinion, Emperor Xinde was like a young man playing with fire. He deliberately played the so-called drama of fighting for the throne. As a result, after igniting a fire, he lost control. The people who played with fire could no longer control the situation. The fire had become a prairie fire.

Now the northwest is in chaos, Shandong is in chaos, Liaodong is in chaos, and Guanzhong is in chaos soon. Emperor Xinde is going to rush to Jiangnan, and Jiangnan will soon become in chaos.

The great country slowly collapsed, and the Dakang Empire is now in a dangerous situation, and all this was caused by Emperor Xinde himself!

In the West Garden, all the ministers dispersed. Emperor Xinde sat cross-legged in the hall. Xu Tiandao stood behind him. Emperor Xinde suddenly stood up and said, "Senior Brother, look at this genius now, there are wars everywhere, and the world is in chaos... Tell me, can these sons become the true dragon emperor?"

Xu Tiandao lowered his head and said, "Your Majesty, don't be discouraged. Although the situation in the world is now in chaos, it is not yet time to be completely out of control. Your Majesty temporarily avoids the limelight. I believe that the situation will stabilize soon. By that time, Your Majesty, you will still be the lord of the world!"

Emperor Xinde laughed and said, "The Lord of the World? What does the Lord of the World mean? Life is like a autumn, no matter how noble or rich you are, you will inevitably die!

People are incredible when they are alive, but once they die, everything is empty. Therefore, all the masters of the world are dreams. Throughout history, how many people have dreamed? As a result, these dreams are also broken!

The ancients said it well, a hundred-year-old dynasty, a thousand-year-old family, no matter how powerful the dynasty is, there is no dynasty that will not be destroyed..."

When Emperor Xinde said this, he paused and continued: "For us practitioners of Taoism, seeking immortality is the foundation, the foundation, and the kingly way! What else is it? It's all illusory!

If I can seek immortality, what does it mean to be an emperor? If I can seek to achieve success, the so-called country and the so-called national destiny can be abandoned as a shoe!

So, senior brother, I have no other requests for the rest of my life, I just focus on asking for the Tao of immortality!”

Xu Tiandao opened his mouth wide and was completely confused. He never expected that Emperor Xinde would suddenly say this. Does his words mean that he would give up all this?

My God, Da Kang is really going to die like this? Xu Tiandao wanted to say something, but he wanted to say something but stopped. Emperor Xinde suddenly said: "Eunuch Feng, go and send Lu Zheng over here! Let Lu Zheng come over to see me quickly!"

Speaking of which, Lu Zheng came out of Xiyuan and was in a very heavy mood. He suddenly wondered whether Long Lingxiu and Long Zhaorui were acting on purpose in Shandong?

Long Zhaorui is the best at fighting among the many princes. He led elite troops. No matter other troops, the army of Su Zhi of Jinwu Guard was brought out by Lu Zheng himself. Lu Zheng knew the best of his combat effectiveness, so why was it defeated?

Lu Zheng thought that if it was a scene, the situation would be really dangerous. Long Lingxiu soldiers would solve Long Zhaorui without blood. If the brother and sister teamed up to attack the capital in the west, could the situation in the capital be able to withstand it?

As soon as Lu Zheng thought, his hair stood up all over his body. At this moment, Eunuch Feng of Xiyuan hurriedly rushed out, and he caught up with Lu Zheng and said:

"Mr. Lu, please stay!"

Lu Zheng turned around in surprise and said, "Eunuch Feng, are you in trouble?"

Eunuch Feng smiled bitterly and said, "What can I do? Now your Majesty wants to see you. Come with me to meet the saint?"

Lu Zheng was shocked and thought to himself, what does Emperor Xinde suddenly want to see him? Didn’t he just come down from the court just now?
