The situation outside was changing and becoming more and more intense.
However, the library pavilion was very quiet.
Ye Cheng was holding a book and lying on a chair. He was basking in the sun and squinting his eyes as he read.
Suddenly, he put down the book.
"Sigh, once your mortal heart is moved, you really can't calm down.”
Ye Cheng sighed.
Who said that he didn't want to care about the troublesome matter outside?
However, he still thought about it, causing the book in his hand to lose its fragrance.
"It seems that my seventeen years of cultivation is still far from enough.”
Ye Cheng shook his head.
When one reached the Martial Sage Realm, one would not only pursue a strong cultivation base, but also a tempering of one's mental state.
Recently, he felt that his cultivation had stagnated.
It was obvious that her state of mind had been disturbed by the troubles of the outside world.
"Forget it. I'd better settle this matter as soon as possible so that it won't affect my cultivation.”
Ye Cheng finally made his decision.
If the current situation continued to develop, it would probably form a protracted war. The Imperial Palace would be uneasy. Could he still live a peaceful life cultivating in the library pavilion?
Definitely not.
The best way was to get rid of the troublemakers.
At this moment, a eunuch running errands ran over.
"Eunuch, the Imperial Steed Superintendent has issued an order to summon all the eunuchs and serving girls from the miscellaneous departments to Piao Ling Yuan. If they don't show up, they will be punished.”
Ye Cheng had stayed in the inner palace for eighteen years.
Furthermore, he was highly valued by Emperor Qian, and even his most beloved prince and princess had a good relationship with Ye City.
Although he was just a sweeping eunuch of the library pavilion, no ordinary eunuch or serving girl dared to offend him.
Ye Cheng was helpless about the term 'little eunuch' because it came from the mouths of the two little fellows.
Later on, it became his nickname.
As time passed, he got used to it.
"Little Yuan, do you know what it is?”
Ye Cheng asked.
He usually liked to interact with these eunuchs and palace maids.
From their emotions, he felt something that ordinary people could not understand.
In his eyes, there was no difference in status.
Even if you were an emperor or a supreme expert, he would treat you normally.
Usually, he would not send out his will to probe the situation in the Imperial Palace in the library pavilion. That would be too tiring.
This was because he would receive a large amount of information at all times.
He was too lazy to do it.
Unless it was absolutely necessary.
Quietly staying in the library to read books and cultivate martial arts was what he liked to do the most.
"Young Eunuch, you have been staying in the library and not going out, so you definitely don't know what's happening outside. There are rumors in the palace that His Majesty has been poisoned and fainted, and the rebel army of the vassal kings is approaching Qiandu. Therefore, the palace has organized eunuchs and serving girls for combat training to deal with possible accidents in the war.”
Xiao Yuanzi looked around and said in a low voice,""Young Eunuch, you can't spread this matter, and don't say that I said it, or else I'll lose my head.”
"Don't worry, I'm very tight-lipped.”
Ye Cheng laughed.
After Xiao Yuanzi left, Ye Cheng shook his head. This Emperor Qian really knew how to cause trouble. He had already been cured by him, yet he still came up with the rumor that he was poisoned and unconscious?
"It seems that our Majesty is scheming against someone.”
Ye Cheng was extremely intelligent, how could he not see the problem?
Since that was the case, let's see what Emperor Qian could do.
Anyway, there was no hurry.
If he really couldn't deal with the situation, it wouldn't be too late for him to make a move.
Ye Cheng picked up the book and started reading again.
Perhaps he had resolved the knot in his heart. This time, he actually looked into it.
As expected, this person could not go against his heart.
.....
Piao Ling Court was a training ground for the Imperial Horse Superintendent.
At this moment, thousands of eunuchs and palace maids had gathered.
There were more than 100,000 eunuchs and serving girls in the entire palace, so these 1,000 eunuchs and serving girls were only a small portion.
Basically, they were all lowly eunuchs and palace maids.
"Is there anyone else who hasn't arrived?"
A eunuch in a green robe asked in a dignified manner.
Although he was a eunuch, he was tall and had thick bones, giving people a rough feeling.
"Reporting to Eunuch Xiang, that Ye Cheng from the library pavilion hasn't arrived yet. Should we lock him up and bring him over?”
a blue-robed eunuch said as he held the name list.
"Forget it, don't worry about him."
The eunuch shook his head.
This eunuch was only a sweeping eunuch and had no rank, but it was best not to provoke him.
Now that His Majesty was poisoned and unconscious, the Crown Prince would definitely come up to take charge of the situation.
Although the Crown Prince was only twelve years old, he was extremely intelligent and had the demeanor of the Emperor.
It was very likely that this young eunuch would become the crown prince's favorite.
The blue-robed eunuch wanted to say something but hesitated. Because Ye City was highly regarded by Emperor Qian and had a good relationship with the Crown Prince and Princess, it naturally attracted the envy and jealousy of many eunuchs and palace maids.
And he was one of them.
......
Ye Cheng didn't know that because he didn't go to Piao Ling Yuan, he was almost locked up.
Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
With his current methods, dealing with this kind of ambush was a piece of cake.
All these years, it wasn't like there weren't eunuchs and serving girls who were jealous of him who plotted against him. It was just that their final outcome was that they vanished from the face of the earth.
Ye Cheng sighed at the coldness and cruelty of the harem.
Even if he hid in the library pavilion, there would still be people who would stab him in the back.
......
Three days later, the alliance army of the four vassal kings arrived and surrounded Qiandu.
As the center of the Great Gan Lord Dynasty and the capital of every dynasty, it was not the first time that Qiandu had been besieged.
Hundreds of thousands of troops, flags like a forest, spears like a sea, formed a sea of blood and killing intent, covering the sky and earth.
After the alliance army arrived, they did not attack the city directly.
Because attacking the city was not the best way.
There were millions of residents in Qiandu, and the city walls were tens of meters tall. Although they couldn't stop martial arts experts from climbing over, they were enough to create a huge obstacle for the attacking army.
The ancient city wall was covered with all kinds of marks, left behind by countless battles.
Every inch of the city wall had been tested by the flames of war.
Every brick on the wall might have left the blood of a hero who had died in battle.
Following that, the alliance army of the vassal kings carried out all kinds of psychological warfare, trying to break the morale of the imperial court's garrison, affect the stability of the people in the city, and create an atmosphere of panic.
However, in less than half a day after the alliance army surrounded Qiandu, the Great Gan Imperial Army moved out everywhere, raiding the residences of hundreds of officials and capturing a large number of spies. Naturally, many killings occurred.
This was Emperor Qian's plan. He wanted to lure out the enemies within and capture them all.
The plan was very successful.
Just as the alliance army was preparing to work with the people of Qiandu to create chaos and take advantage of the situation to break through Qiandu, they were completely stunned by the Imperial Army's actions.
This was because the Imperial Court's actions had almost completely cut off the possibility of the alliance army taking down Qiandu at the lowest cost.
In other words, he could only attack forcefully.
However, what happened next was even more shocking.
This was because Emperor Qian had actually appeared on the city wall.
He was dignified and stood proudly, showing no signs of being poisoned at all.
The appearance of Emperor Qian immediately lifted the low morale of the soldiers. The entire city wall was filled with loud cheers, and countless soldiers shouted long live His Majesty.
However, Emperor Qian, who was in the alliance army's formation, was dumbstruck and looked at the city wall in disbelief.
"Isn't Ying Chen deeply poisoned and dying? How could he still be alive? Are you still alive?"
Ying Shi, who was as fat as a pig, grabbed the middle-aged man beside him and roared,""What did you do in the Sea of Constellations? Didn't you use the Shadowless Soul-Destroying Poison? Did he look like he was poisoned? You dare to deceive this king?"
Not to mention Ying Shi, even the other three lords had a drastic change in expression. Their reactions were not any less than his.
"Impossible. The chess piece has already spread the news that the poison was successfully poisoned.”
This middle-aged man was even more suspicious of life.
The Sea of Constellations 'Shadowless Soul Destroying Powder had never failed before.
However, Emperor Qian was still alive and well.
Moreover, this was definitely not a fake.
After all, as a high-ranked martial arts expert, it was very easy to distinguish auras.
"As expected, my premonition was right."
Ying Zhang sighed." My brother is really too cunning. He actually used such a method to scheme against us.”
"Since he didn't die, it won't be so easy to break through Qiandu this time.”
Another vassal king sighed.
The difference between Emperor Qian and himself was too great.
Now, Emperor Qian's move had completely cleaned out the unstable factors within and even restored morale.
Relying on Qiandu's defenses, it would be a hundred times more difficult for the alliance army to break through Qiandu.
Moreover, the entire Qiandu City was not as simple as just a tall city wall. It was said that after the founding of the Great Jing Dynasty three thousand years ago, they spent a huge price to build this unprecedented capital city on this original land.
When designing, he had incorporated the secrets of the array formation.
This led to a strange effect. In the event of a war, as long as the morale of the garrison troops remained high, their combat strength, stamina, willpower, tenacity, and even combat strength would be increased to a certain extent.
It was said that the more intense the battle, the higher the morale, and the more obvious the effect.
It was precisely because of this that the Sea of Constellations wanted to poison Emperor Qian to death in advance. When the alliance army surrounded Qiandu, they even used psychological warfare to suppress the morale of the defending troops, thereby eliminating the effect of Qiandu itself.
Unfortunately, things did not go as he wished.
Not only did the plan fail, but it also caused the morale of the defenders to soar to the extreme.
"Looks like we can only use the second plan.”
Suddenly, a white-robed man with an indifferent expression said indifferently.
When this person spoke, even the four vassal kings did not dare to underestimate him.
This was because this person was the Young Sect Master of the Free and Unfettered Daoist Sect, a top-notch Xiantian ninth-grade expert. It was rumored that he had the potential to be a Saint.
The representatives of the other four superpowers nodded in agreement.
"Everyone, gather the martial arts army and prepare to attack the city.”
Young Sect Master Xiaoyao seemed to have become the leader of the five super forces.
The other four representatives had no objections.
The four lords had no objections.
The martial arts army formed by the five super forces was the best for the four vassal kings.
......
At this moment, Ye Cheng was standing on the top of a tall building in the palace. He could see the situation outside the city.
It was so far away that ordinary people could not see it. Even high-ranked grandmasters could not see it clearly.
However, Ye Cheng saw it clearly.
"Tsk tsk, this Qian Du is indeed extraordinary.”
Ye Cheng sensed a strange fluctuation in the void.
This was the fluctuation of an array formation.
Even though it was very weak, and even a high-ranked Grandmaster could not sense it.
However, it could not hide from his consciousness.
Before this, he had never noticed that the entire Qiandu contained a huge formation.
Now, when the war was about to begin, the morale of the millions of residents and soldiers in the city was raised, causing the formation in Qiandu to be activated.
