Rong Changan frowned tightly: "I don't know when the snow will fall!"
Chuntao smiled and said, "It's snowing, it makes a creaking sound when you walk, it's so nice.—Queen, sit down, and I'll bring you some water to wash your face."
Opening the green cloth curtain, a gust of cold wind pressed against the ground, engulfed in snow-white six-petaled flowers, blowing in and falling into Rong Changan's colored sleeves.
She shook her sleeves, and the snow fell into her palm, white and crystal clear. Seeing this snowflake always makes people think of beauty. I don't know what Yan Li is doing at this time? Will he also look at Snow Flower like her, and then think of her
Snow is beautiful, but it also has a bad side. The heavy snow blocks people's travel, and the world becomes much deserted. Those sneaky people may take advantage of this time to come out and move around.
What Rong Changan was worried about was the border gates. If there was no connection between the gates, between the gates and the camp, and between the camp and the capital, it would be easy for rebels and thieves to conquer the city.
"General Song and Commander Lin are here? It's so cold, it's rare that you still miss the queen." It was Chuntao's voice.
Song Qiang's voice was heavy: "Is General Rong inside?"
Chuntao said: "Here, I just woke up."
Then there was the sound of two people stepping on the snow.
It is not a good sign that they came to find Rong Changan so early. Perhaps, just as she thought, the rebellious officials and thieves took advantage of the heavy snow to attack the city and loot the pond.
Rong Changan was afraid that others would see her sloppy, so he turned his head to look at the bronze mirror, straightened her hair and clothes, sat upright, and waited for Song Qiang and Lin Hai to come in.
"How is the queen?" Lin Hai said after lifting the curtain.
Song Qiang took a look at Rong Changan, and felt that she looked very haggard, thinking that Rong Changan was depressed because of being deposed.
Rong Chang'an smiled like a flower, Qing Lingling's eyes flickered, like two pools of clear water, "Don't call me queen in the future, I'm a deposed person, please call me Rong Shuren."
Lin Hai and Song Qiang froze for a moment, feeling very sad, "You are no longer the queen, but you are still my General Rong. I, Song Qiang, only listen to you."
Lin Hai also said: "I think the emperor was just confused for a while, and he will restore your position as queen in the future."
People say that one is poor and the other is cheap, but the truth is true. Today Rong Changan was abolished, and she no longer has any influence in politics, but Lin Hai and Song Qiang still firmly supported her, Rong Changan was very moved.
"People say that it is enough to have a confidant in life, and the world should treat it with the same heart. Chang'an can have you two good brothers and good brothers, which is enough to comfort the whole life." Then, he examined the two of them again, "You two today Come, not just to see me? Is something wrong?"
Song Qiang said: "General Rong is aware that Lin Hai and I have something important to report to you."
From Song Qiang and Lin Hai's frowning brows, dignified eyes, and heavy expressions, it can be seen that what Song Qiang wants to say is not trivial. After much deliberation, the only people who can work for Lin Hai and Song Qiang are the military and police at the border.
Rong Changan ordered Chuntao to pour two cups of hot water for Song Qiang and the others, and let them talk while drinking.
Song Qiang drank the water in one sip, wiped his mouth, and said: "There are rumors at the border now that Pan Meichen is trying to attack Waqiao Pass and attack the capital. After we got the news, we immediately sent people to the north Inquire and verify whether the rumors are true."
Pan Meichen is not an easy character to deal with. If he really wants to attack Waqiaoguan, he must be invincible.
"How's the news?"
Song Qiang scolded: "Pan Meichen, the son of a bitch, really did secret military training in an attempt to conspire against the invasion. After I heard the news, I sent people to Waqiao Pass to report to the guards, and asked him to take strict precautions. But..."
Song Qiang didn't finish his sentence, and sighed softly, with remorse and anger in his wide-eyed eyes.
"But what?" Song Qiang's words brought Rong Changan to Waqiao Pass.
Song Qiang said: "The people I sent came back and told me that Waqiaoguan has...already been lost!" Song Qiang, in grief and indignation, clenched his fists and slammed his fist on the table, smashing the two bowls on the table. It fell to the ground and shattered.
Lin Hai added: "On the snowy day, Pan Meichen sent troops to attack Waqiao Pass. The guards at Waqiao Pass had no defenses. Not only did they risk their own lives, but even the pass was taken away."
Song Qiang gritted his teeth: "The hateful thing is that we went to report to the emperor yesterday, that bitch Ziyan said that the emperor was sick in Yong'an Palace and wouldn't let us get close. We can't delay this kind of military affairs, so we had to come early in the morning Find you, discuss with you, what should we do next!"
Pan Meichen's sneak attack on Waqiaoguan was not only in her expectation, but also in Rong Changan's surprise. It was a snowy day, and it was a good time for a surprise attack; unexpectedly, she did not expect Pan Meichen to send troops so soon.
Lin Haidao: "Right now, Queen Rong is the only one who can deal with Pan Meichen in the entire Dajing Kingdom. Otherwise, Pan Meichen's iron cavalry will be able to reach the north gate in just three days. By that time, the entire capital will face disaster."
Seeing that Rong Chang'an was lost in thought, Song Qiang took her hand and said sharply, "General Rong, what else are you thinking about? Come with me to the North Camp and lead the troops to a decisive battle with Pan Meichen, just like last time That way, beat the crap out of him and disarm him. Better yet, we'll take his lair away."
Rong Changan coughed twice, and took a bowl of water to drink to moisten her throat. At this time, she was like a weeping willow, very weak.
"You have also seen that on the one hand, I have been abolished. Even if I still have military power in my hands, how can an abolished empress lead the army to fight? On the one hand, I am sick and weak, how can I lead the army to fight? You go The Ministry of War will discuss with the other ministers to see who is recommended as the marshal, and lead the troops to fight Pan Meichen!"
If Song Qiang told her to leave, she would leave, and it would be too disgraceful to leave. She not only asked Yan Li to beg her, but also Zi Yan to put on shoes for her.
Song Qiang said impatiently: "In the entire military department, who is more capable than General Rong? If you are in Dajing Kingdom, in terms of combat ability, you rank second, and no one dares to say that you rank first."
"The Dragon Crouching Tiger is hidden in the Great Jing Kingdom, there must be other people who can lead the army to fight." Rong Changan continued to evade.
Song Qiang said: "All the people who can fight in the entire Dajing Kingdom are here, who else is there!"
Lin Hai clasped his fists and said in a pleading tone: "Queen, the country is in trouble now, please go out and fight with us for the sake of the common people and the people of the world, and drive Pan Meichen out of Waqiao Pass."
Rong Changan's eyes were as hopeless as cold ashes, and he seemed to have no enthusiasm for everything.
"The people of the world, the common people, this is the emperor's business. How can I let Changan be safe! I am just a waste empress now, living in this deserted palace, facing the white snow every day, facing the carved beams and painted buildings, Let’s talk about this life. You don’t need to say much, I, Rong Chang’an, will never leave Fengming Palace again.”
