24. Desperate(2/2)
Of course, if you want to wear a crown, you must bear the weight. If you sit firmly on the dragon throne, you must start to govern the board and exercise great power. The heavy government affairs are pressing on the shoulders of the small king. The little nobles of the alliance come to ask for power all day long.
These things are all troublesome, but Yelu Jienan doesn't care.
He originally thought that his ideals and ambitions would never have a chance to realize in his life. Now God is giving him a good opportunity, just like God wants to take this opportunity to test his ability.
He then raised his will and was about to let go of his hands to restore the Northern Dynasties, which were happy and cholera, to a state of peace and stability.
He was not naive either, and did not rashly accept the peace proposal of the Southern envoy. Before any negotiations, the soldiers trapped in the Central Plains would withdraw first.
For this reason, he also divided the garrisons from Qilu and went to reinforce.
As a result, something happened to the division of troops.
But to be honest, the crisis in Yanjing at this time cannot be blamed entirely on Yelu Jienan. No one would have thought that the army of the southerners would be so domineering that it would cross the Youyan of Qilu in less than ten days.
The northern country spent more than ten years and had set up several important military cities, even to be dragged to Liaodong reinforcements, but they could not do so.
"Alas, in the past, I talked a lot about the world, but today I know that things in the world are difficult to do."
The little king sighed helplessly and worriedly.
Behind him, the most popular and trustworthy eunuch Ade, holding the whisk, was quietly staying behind the king, without expressing any opinions on the king's sorrow.
Said it was a "big" eunuch.
In fact, he is about the same age as Yelu Jienan.
The two grew up together. When Yelu Wan was still alive, she regarded this young eunuch who was deeply trusted and properly handled her work as a general care of her younger brother.
However, Ade is very serious about his duty and does not care about anything that goes beyond his limits.
When the king was at its most downturn, he and the king survived it. Now that the good days are just beginning, they must not fall into these trivial matters that are different between the king, minister, and servant.
"Ade, what's the situation on the city wall? Where are the reinforcements in Liaodong now? Can there be a reply from the Mongolian Golden Tent?"
Yelu Jienan touched her beard that she had just grown on and asked.
Ad leaned over and said softly in the voice of a duck:
"Your Majesty, don't worry. The troops outside the pass arrived at Shanhaiguan two days ago. It was an elite army of our country. With its strong combat power, it will be able to lift the siege of Yanjing soon.
As for the Mongolian Golden Tent, no news has been heard so far.
The Mongolian envoy also fled out of the city last night. The princess's affairs had already caused rifts in the two countries. I am afraid that this incident in Yanjing will not be expected.
Above the city wall..."
Ade secretly glanced at the expressionless face of the little king, and he said:
"On the city wall, the soldiers used their lives and the commander was determined. Today, they defeated the mad attacks of the southern country for 17 times, and did not allow the traitors of the southern country to climb our city wall in an inch or an inch or an inch or an inch or an inch or an inch or an inch or an inch of our city wall.
The morale of the army is available.”
"Ade, the news I got from the Beggars' Sect's eyeliner is not like this."
Yelu Jienan curled her lips. This vivid expression made him feel like a child of his age, who should be able to escape, but he only stopped in a moment.
He said to Ade behind him:
"Even you started lying to me? It seems that the rule of sitting on the dragon throne is to be called a lonely person. It is indeed not the nonsense of the wise."
"Your Majesty forgive me."
Ade hurriedly knelt down on the ground and repeatedly claimed the crime. Without Yelu Jienan's request, Ade said everything he thought was like pouring beans on a bamboo tube:
"The villain got the advice to satisfy His Majesty's heart. The villain is similar to the king of the country. He originally wanted to be a substitute. Tomorrow evening, he would send a trustworthy person to send His Majesty out of the city."
"Ad!"
Yelu Jienan didn't agree with it at first.
He knew that Ade was loyal to him and originally thought that he had lied to him by lying to prevent him from getting angry.
But now he heard from Ade that after receiving the advice from others, he wanted to take the luggage to replace Taorun, and his face darkened.
He snapped:
"I believe in you so much, you still listen to the instructions of others!"
Ade doesn't answer.
He just lowered his head and handed a rolled-up letter with both hands.
The little king reached out and held it in his hand angrily, opened it and looked at it, his face became subtle. He was very familiar with the beautiful font on the paper.
After reading the letter, Yelu Jienan's expression became more beautiful.
"It's actually Sister."
A surprise appeared on the little king's face. He waved his hand to Ade and signaled him to get up.
He looked at the letter in his hand happily over and over again, and soon found a suspicious point. He said to the person he trusted behind him:
"My sister is so capable. Not only can she dare to confront the dog thief Gao Xing, but she can also ask the masters of the martial arts world to save me. But when did I have another 'brother-in-law'?"
Speaking of this, Yelu Jienan said with a bit of gritting teeth:
"I don't know which lucky guy is who can win the hearts of my sister.
My sister is so happy that she is dead. The country is in trouble. She actually hides it from me and becomes a secret marriage. She does not bring that person to Yanjing and shows me."
"Forget it, it's useless to say this now."
The little king got his sister's letter and felt better.
Although the letter specifically reminded Ade not to tell Yelu Jienan that Yelu Wan knew her younger brother best and had a strong sense of self-esteem. Once he knew about it, he would definitely not be willing to abandon his country and live a life of silence.
Facts have proved that Yelu Wan was right to be worried.
"Ade, go and gather the descendants of the Yelu family, the meritorious ministers, and the children in the family, and tomorrow night, take the beggars' sect's way and send them out of the city."
The little king waved his sleeves quite casually. He looked back at the hall behind him, and then looked at the direction of the Yanjing city gate.
He said to Ade:
"The Navy of the Southern Kingdom probably won't let the reinforcements from Liaodong come so smoothly. I have heard of Zhao Lian's name. Since he came to Yanjing, he thought he had made complete preparations to destroy our country's dynasty.
I am still young and have not yet married. Now I know that my sister has married a good man, and my worries are gone.
I can't keep the country left by my father, and I am unfilial.
How can we still abandon our country, leave the soldiers on the front line, and live alone?"
