According to the information, the general of the Liao Kingdom, Yelu Xiuge, led an army of 400,000 to the south under the order of the Emperor of Liao. He has now broken through Yanmen Pass and Jiameng Pass, and his troops are at the end of the East Pass.

There were only 20,000 troops in Dongguan, and they were held in the city, but they couldn't resist it for long, so they asked the new emperor to send a large army to reinforce.

"My dear friends, the Liao Kingdom is betrayal and the army went south to attack our Song Dynasty. Now Yanmen Pass and Jiameng Pass have been broken. Dongguan is in great crisis now. That love friend is willing to lead troops to Dongguan to rescue and repel the Liao Kingdom?"

As soon as the new emperor finished his words, the civil and military officials in the court looked pale and began to talk, with a look of panic on their faces.

"My dear, I am in trouble. If anyone is willing to lead troops there, I will give you a reward, increase your rank, or even be granted a title."

The new emperor was really anxious this time and regretted not following Wu Tian’s advice.

Now that the fire is in full swing, no one is willing to stand up.

"My dear friends, the country is in danger. Are you unwilling to help me?"

All the officials were silent.

The Zuo Xiang couldn't stand it, so he walked out of the squad and bowed to the new emperor: "Emperor, the Liao Kingdom is coming in a fierce manner. For the sake of the present, the only way is to order Wu Tian to lead the army of heroes in Liangshan and assist part of the Song army, which may be able to block the Liao Kingdom's journey south."

The new emperor pondered for a while and said to the Zuo Xiang: "The day before yesterday, Wu Tian sincerely suggested that I strengthen my defenses in the three passes, but I didn't listen to him and doubted him. Now I'm asking him to lead his troops to fight, I'm afraid he won't want to."

Zuo Xiang said: "The people in Liangshan are loyal to the court, not to mention that they are holding the banner of "Practicing the Way for Heaven".

As long as the emperor issues an imperial edict and gives generous rewards, I don’t think they will watch the people of the Song Dynasty live in dire straits and ignore them.”

The new emperor nodded, immediately asked the eunuch to bring the imperial edict and pen and ink, and wrote an imperial edict and handed it to the left prime minister.

"Left Prime Minister, you have kindness with Wu Tian. I'm afraid there is no other person in the court to send this imperial edict except you.

This time, I will beg you, Zuo Prime Minister, to go to the National Master’s Mansion to announce the imperial edict on my behalf.”

The left prime minister had no choice but to come forward to receive the order and retreat.

After walking out of the court, Zuo Xiang was thinking about how to tell Wu Tian about this. As he thought about it, he returned to his mansion without knowing it.

Shanyun came out to greet him and said with a smile: "Entertainment Father, why did you leave the court so early today?"

Zuo Xiang came back to his senses, and then realized that he had returned home and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has something to do today, so come back early."

"That's right, just so happens, where do I want to go to the National Master's Mansion? Should I go with my adoptive father?"

"Go to the National Master's Mansion? Where are you doing?"

The left prime minister stared at Shanyun.

Shanyun's cheeks turned slightly red, and he said for a long time: "I heard from Sister Pan Jinlian that today is the birthday of the national master. I will go over and see if there is anything I can help. After all, the national master once saved my life and helped me save your adoptive father.

I want to do something to repay his kindness.”

Zuo Xiang saw that this was not what Shanyun really said, and this little girl was moved.

Alas, women are too young to stay.

Suddenly, Zuo Xiang flashed his inspiration and stared at Shanyun: "Shanyun, there is something that my adoptive father wants you to help me. This matter is related to the safety of the people of the Song Dynasty. I wonder if you would like it or not?"
