This year, Seventeen celebrated his sixteenth birthday.
He lived alone.
No one knows the exact date of Seventeen's birthday.
Yi Renhao and the others didn't think of it at all, but Qingyan asked her, but Shi Qi didn't answer her at all.
From Shi Qi's point of view, birthday is a very personal matter.
On the third day after Seventeen's birthday, a battle report came from Heishui County, and the frontline war was very unfavorable to Nanyun Kingdom.
The Bauhinia Legion has expanded to 200,000 people. Under the leadership of Su Yi, a veteran, they are still unable to resist the Black Blood Nation's legion... The miracle did not happen.
The 200,000 troops of the Bauhinia Army were tightly besieged in the Bauhinia City, unable to move!
During the siege of the Bauhinia Army, other cities in Heishui County were not spared. Under the attack of the Black Blood Army, the cities fell one after another.
If Nanyun Kingdom does not continue to send reinforcements, the fall of Heishui County is only a matter of time.
"The most urgent thing is to continue to send reinforcements!" A courtier shouted loudly, "The Yundu City Guard has recently expanded its army by 160,000, and those 160,000 soldiers who once defeated the White Dragon Army are definitely from our Nanyun Kingdom." The elite, as well as General Chen Pengfei, commander of the imperial guards, has experienced many battles, has outstanding military exploits, and is a disciple of General Su Yi, so he is simply the best candidate to go to the reinforcements!"
Shi Qi looked at the courtier who proposed that he go to the war, and he was a little curious.
He was curious if the courtier came up with this proposal himself, or if other forces used the courtier's mouth to transfer him away from Yundu.
The command of the Yundu Imperial Guard is indeed a very critical position.
Seventeen obviously does not belong to the direct line of His Majesty the Emperor, and should hand over power after the throne is settled.
The courtier's proposal was approved by the majority.
At least at the critical moment of Nanyun Kingdom's survival, it would be too wasteful if a hero like Shi Qi was kept in the rear.
What's more, except for Shi Qi's friendship with Yi Renhao, there is almost no influence behind him, and no minister is willing to speak for him.
The Prime Minister of Nanyun Kingdom asked: "Teach Chen Pengfei to lead one hundred thousand soldiers to Heishui County to support General Su. Your Majesty, what do you think?"
The Prime Minister was hand-picked by the ancestors of the royal family of Nanyun Kingdom. Lan Yanlin has not received strict royal education, has no experience as a prince, has no experience in reviewing memorials, and even has no experience as a prince and daughter... But it doesn't matter, Yun The ancestors of the family have made arrangements for her... She just needs to accept the prime minister's opinion.
The prime minister nodded... Lan Yanlin saw his small movements, took another look at Shi Qi and said, "I agree to transfer 100,000 elite troops from the imperial guards, led by Chen Pengfei, to Heishui County to support General Su , and serve as the deputy of General Su to jointly resist the attack of the Black Blood Nation!"
Make Chen Pengfei Su Yi's deputy
The prime minister was a little confused, he remembered that he had never said that!
But the empress had already spoken, and Chen Pengfei was indeed a good candidate, so the prime minister did not refute.
When Shi Qi heard Lan Yanlin's order, he hesitated whether he should agree or not.
His strength has reached the innate peak, and if he wants to break through and become a master of breaking the sky, there is no hope at all.
Breaking through the Heaven-shattering Realm and seducing the heart demon, Shi Qi will surely die from the heart demon.
No luck.
At this moment, he wanted to stay in Yundu and serve as the commander of the imperial guards, responsible for the safety of the empress.
"General Chen, accept the order!" Someone reminded a courtier.
Inside the Scarlet Blood Sword, Chen Hao also said: "Seventeen, you'd better agree, don't forget, there is a secret realm in Bauhinia City that may enhance your strength!"
"Master Sword Spirit is talking about the secret realm of killing?"
Chen Hao replied: "That's right! It's the Killing Realm! There may be something suitable for you in the Killing Realm."
"The last general leads the decree!"
Seventeen decisively chose Zunzhi.
At present, even if the army of the Nanyun Kingdom is at an absolute disadvantage, Lan Yanlin's life safety can definitely be guaranteed.
Most importantly, almost everyone knows that Lan Yanlin doesn't have much real power, she's just a puppet, a mascot, even if she is assassinated, those royal family ancestors can easily find other collateral blood relatives to inherit the throne … There will be no chaos in the royal family, nor will there be any chaos in the court.
Let me ask, who would be unwise enough to assassinate Lan Yanlin
Going to Heishui County, Shi Qi didn't think too much, and directly transferred the old subordinates who had accompanied him to defeat the White Dragon Army.
There is nothing to say about the old subordinates. You don't need to train too much if you use it smoothly. As long as you do a few adaptive trainings, everything will be fine.
This time I went to Heishui County, the mountains were high and the road was far away. After I ordered Yi Renhao to help him "watch" Qingyan, Seventeen was sent off by His Majesty the Queen and left Yundu with the army.
This is a political show, Shi Qi rarely had the opportunity to have a face-to-face conversation with Lan Yanlin.
"Seventeen, if there is no hope for Nanyun Kingdom, you should surrender as you should...but don't die so easily!" Lan Yanlin covered her mouth with her sleeve and said with a smile, "I can see you again, see I'm glad you're still alive... don't let other people see your mouth, someone can read lips."
"Are the rest of the Lan family in Mingjian City?" Shi Qi asked directly.
"Well, there are several younger brothers and sisters of mine in Bright Sword City!" Lan Yanlin smiled wryly, "So, I must cooperate with them."
"Is there anything Eldest Miss wants me to do?" It's a rare opportunity to talk to Lan Yanlin alone. Of course, Shi Qi will not let go of this opportunity, "For example, kill the Chen family? Rescue the remaining Lan family and so on... "
"No, your strength is not enough!" Lan Yanlin vetoed, "If you want to deal with the Lan family of Mingjian City, unless you are a strong person in the sky-shattering realm, there is no hope at all. You just need to live well now."
Lan Yanlin also didn't say anything to death, she was very clear about Seventeen's potential: "Of course, if you can become a Heaven Breaker one day, maybe I will ask you to help me!"
"Help me rescue some of the Lan family." Lan Yanlin said in a low voice, "They said that my surname should be Yun, but they think that my surname is still Lan. The elders and the others almost died in battle. In such a big Lan family, even one There are no innate masters, and now I am the only one who can save my brothers and sisters... If it is still possible, you can help me kill a few more Chen family members."
Speaking of killing several Chen family members, Shi Qi could hear the deep-seated hatred in the eldest lady's heart.
"Chen Guo captured Yiyang City, causing heavy casualties to our Lan family. I hate them...but I hate those people from the Chen family even more!" Died at the hands of the Chen family!"
"Little Seventeen, to be honest, I don't think you owe the Lan family anything, I just hope that if you have the chance, you can help save my younger siblings... If it's too difficult, you can give up, anyway, as long as I live , they can’t die either, you can secretly help me kill some of the Chen family, just to fulfill my little wish!” Lan Yanlin looked back at the courtiers and said in a low voice, “Don’t care about the life and death of Nanyun Kingdom, you You have to protect yourself first... "
